Official Artist
Has Experience
By LEMUEL F. PARTON
(Consolidated Features—WNU Service.)
NEW YORK.—This war, so far,
has lacked bands and banners
and all other such traditional ex-
citements and John Masefield has
not even writ-
ten a poem
Of Present War about it. In
one detail,
however,
British traditionalism again pre-
vails. Sir Muirhead Bone, official
artist of the World war, is again
officially appointed as the artist of
the navy, and it is understood that
he also will render the graphic rec-
ords of the conflict on land as well.
Sir Muirhead, 64 years old, of
Scottish birth, is one of the world's
most distinguished etchers. He is
also a painter, but in the years be-
tween the big wars he has turned
more to etching. That is, with the
trend of the times, as a modern
war is decidedly an etcher's war.
Skeleton trees on a blasted hillside,
zig-zag trenches, the splintered chaos
of peasants' huts, the angular dy-
namics of war machinery, all lend
•themselves to Sir Muirhead's super-
lative drypoint. There isn't much
of the painter's mass and color in
an up-to-date war—no gay plumes,
bright uniforms and snorting black
horses. There are, instead, the sul-
len monochromes of desolation, the
inert black and white of sharply
graven ruin.
There were plenty of bands
playing when Sir Muirhead was
appointed official war artist in
1916. He painted boldly or
etched deeply his pictures for
the war museum, for which he
iatei became trustee. Much was
made, not only of the importance
of a minutely observed pictorial
record of the war, but of the
availability of so great an artist
to render its full aesthetic values.
This time, there is a perfunc-
tory announcement, only a few
lines, of Sir Muirhead's appoint-
ment. Not even in the graphic
arts is war getting its accus-
tomed fanfare.
This writer remembers well Sir
Muiiiiead's masterful drawings in
the "international studio" of an ear-
lier and happier day—mellow archi-
tectural studies, or placid landscape
in English byways where no air-
raid siren ever sounded. He was
the son of a Glasgow journalist,
studying art at a night school. It
was in 1901 that he went to Eng-
land, to become an honorary doc-
tor of letters at Oxford and one of
the most famous artists of Eng-
land. He has exhibited in New
York several times and has an en-
thusiastic following among critics
and the American art public.
IN 1937, Rep. John E. Miller of
Arkansas made his campaign
for the United States senatorship
against the "New Deal patronage
, machine."
Arkansas Senator His backers
Is Ardent Foe of charged that
Revised Hatch Act *is ^ponent
Gov. Carl E.
Bailey, had the active support of
his "organization of 5,000 state em-
ployees," and of various members
of the New Deal cabinet. Repre-
sentative Miller, running as an in-
dependent against "machine poli-
ticians," achieved a sensational vic-
tory, as he won the seat of the late
Joe T. Robinson. He was the first
independent elected to a major po-
litical office in Arkansas since the
early reconstruction days. His suc-
cess was acclaimed as a triumph
over patronage politics.
Today, by one of those curious
reversals of political form which
make news, Senator Miller is
the most conspicuous opponent
of the extension and strengthen-
ing: of the Hatch law directed
against political job-holders mix-
\ng in politics. He would not
only block its extension to cover
state job-holders supported in
part by federal funds, but he
would repeal section nine which
oars governmental employees
from political activity.
The lean, bespectacled Senator
Miller is somewhat professorial in
appearance, and, incidentally, was
graduated from Cape Girardeau
Teachers' college, in Valparaiso,
Ind. However, he later turned to
the law and has been a practicing
attorney in Searcy, Ark., since 1912.
He was prosecuting attorney and
county judge before his election to
the house in 1930. He is a native of
Stoddard County, Mo.
IN THE light of not so ancient
history, it is quite clear as to
why Francis B. Sayre thinks we
ought to get rid of the Philippines.
Our high commissioner is a holder
of the Grand Cross of the White
Elephant. Less pertinent, but in-
teresting is the fact that he also
is a knight commander of the Chula
Krom Klav, and a Phia Kalyan
Matri. These titles were gratefully
bestowed on him by the king of
Siam, when, in the early 1920s, Mr.
Sayre was adviser to the king and
aided in many treaty negotiations
EUROPE:
From Axis to Triangle
If foreign observers hoped the
Finnish peace would place a quietus
on western warfare, their mistake
was clearly evident by late March.
Not by secret maneuvers but by
leaps and bounds the Rome-Berlin
axis was merging into a Russian-
German-Italian coalition designed to
force a dictators' peace down the
Anglo-French throat. At London and
Paris the populace protested, de-
manding more aggressive pursuit of
the war. Their parliaments fumed,
and one government fell complete-
ly. The other, sorely afraid, jumped
into the conflict head first.
Mr. Welles Goes Home
Nobody knew what was in his
briefcase but U. S. Undersecretary
of State Sumner Welles boarded the
Conte di Savoia at Genoa, home-
ward bound to tell Franklin Roose-
velt about the chances for a Euro-
pean peacg. Sidetracked by France

and Britain, he had more luck with
Germany and Italy whose dictators,
Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini,
met at the Brenner pass and pre-
sumably framed a set of abortive
terms.
Also discussed at Brenner was an
Italo-Russ compromise caiiing tor
sphere-of-influence division in the
Balkans. A few days later, when
Soviet Ambassador Alexander
Schkvarzev flew from Berlin to Mos-
cow on a secret mission, it was
clearly evident that Germany was
drawing Rome and Moscow closer
together. As if gloating over this
diplomatic victory, Hitler sent his
raiders to bomb the British naval
base at Scapa Flow.
Reaction
In England. When press and pub-
lic began yelling for action, Prime
Minister Neville Chamberlain got
mad. He gave parliament the
fightingest speech of his career and
promised to
strike back.

OKLAHOMA—The U. S. obtained
a preliminary order restraining
Gov. Leon C. Phillips from using
troops to prevent completion of the
$20,000,000 Grand River dam. Phil-
lips' contention: That the U. S.
should pay the state $889,000 for
property to be damaged.
TAXATION—At Washington, the
U. S. treasury figured early 1939
income tax returns showed a 26 per
cent boost over last year, with heav-
iest collections still to be reported.
AVIATION—American Airlines,
Inc., asked the civil aeronautics
authority for permission to operate
the first complete airline'from Chi-
cago to Mexico City.
COMMUNICATIONS—Maj. Ed-
win Armstrong, inventor of static-
free "frequency modulation" broad-
casting, asked the Federal Commu-
nications commission to give his
"F-M" the broadcasting channels
now used for television. Argument:
That television, now impractical
commercially, stands in the way of
radio progress.

dered makers of five other soft
drinks to cease using the words

HEADLINES
took revenge by raiding British con-
voy ships in toe North sea.
In France. Fighting increased on
the western front but there was a
bigger fight in Paris. Called on the
carpet as a result of the Russian
threat, Premier Edouard Daladier
emerged with such a weak vote of
confidence (311 deputies had not
voted) that his cabinet resigned.
This was a victory for democracy,
because the Daladier government
has ruled for seven months under
dictatorial decrees. Quickly Presi-
dent Albert Lebrun summoned Paul
Reynaud, conservative ex-finance
minister, bitter foe of Naziism and
distaster of the politics-ridden Dala-
dier cabinet. Next day Premier Rey-
naud emerged with a well publicized,
psychologically sound "victory"
cabinet dedicated to trouncing the
Nazis. Edouard Daladier was still
war minister, and all parties were
so thoroughly represented that the
chamber's confidence seemed as-
sured.
In Finland
While 500,000 Finns hastened
evacuation of territory ceded to Rus-
sia, the battered little nation began
patching her defenses and counting
noses. Total war casualties were
placed at 58,500, of which 29,700
were dead or seriously disabled.
(Total army: 360,000.)
Meanwhile new troubles were
arising with Russia. The Finnish
cabinet, about to resign, heard that
the Kremlin opposed formation of a
Norwegian-Swedish-Finnish mutual
defense alliance on the ground that
it would be aimed at the Soviet.
Obviously Russia was not willing to
surrender her new-found domination
over Scandinavia.
In Poland
Numerous and unpleasant are the
atrocity stories coming out of Po-
land since German occupation last
autumn. Much of this information
probably came from consular of-
ficials of neutral nations, a possi-
bility which might explain the latest
Nazi order: Effective immediate-
ly, all foreign consular offices in
Poland must be evacuated, making
Germany the sole source of official
information on conditions in the
area. At Washington the state de-
partment announced the Reich had
been adamant to its protests. Left
without official representation were
532 Americans living in Poland.
ASIA:
Crow Eaters
For two and one-half years Jap-
anese troops fighting in north China
have reported after every encoun-
ter that the enemy has been "rout-
ed," "given a stunning blow,"
"wiped out" or "annihilated." In
late March the Japanese army was
forced to eat crow. An official sur-
vey admitted that more than a mil-
lion Chinese troops were still fight-
ing in north China under leadership
of Gen. Cheng Chien, whom the
Japs reported killed in 1938.
In the south, Nippon had better
luck, capturing the walled city of
Lingshan and encircling a large
Chinese force east of the Nanning-
Yamchow railroad.
Meanwhile the puppet regime of
Wang Ching-wei, turncoat ex-
Chinese premier, summoned a cen-
tral political counc',1 and established
a government at Nanking under
Japan's watchful eye.
POLITICS:
Farley's Inning
In late March Columnist Ernest
Lindley wrote from Washington that
President Roosevelt had told an un-
identified southern legislator (1)
that he wanted to retire; (2) that
Cordell Hull should succeed him;
(3) that Jim Farley's Catholicism
would make impossible a successful
race by the postmaster general.
Next day Franklin Roosevelt pro-
tested. Said he: The remark about
Farley and the rest of the article
all came from whole cloth—it was
utterly false. While this was no
recommendation, it at least let Far-
ley's friends believe that he would
have an equal chance for the job
if Mr. Roosevelt turns it down.
Farley himself took heart. Next
day, stepping from his train at
Springfield, Mass., where Demo-
crats have entered a full slate of
delegates for him in the forthcom-
ing primary, he said flatly: "To
clear up any misunderstanding, let
me say that my name will be pre-
sented to the national convention at
Chicago, and that's that."
And it was.
Other political news:
C, Secretary of the Navy Charles
Edison announced "after weeks of
earnest consideration" his candidacy
in the New Jersey Democratic
gubernatorial primary May 21.
C. Sen. Arthur Vandenberg (R.,
Mich.) a Cr. O. P. presidential
hopeful, turned down invitations to
campaign in Wisconsin and Nebras-
ka (where he is a primary candi-
date). Reason: "The choice of the
(G. O. P.) convention should flow
from the deliberate judgment of
the people, and not from ... a
campaign tour."
WHO GETS THE PLANES?
WASHINGTON. — Backstage, all
the stew over whether the allies are
getting planes ahead of the U. S.
army and navy boils down to a per-
sonal vendetta between the secre-
tary of war and the secretary of
the treasury, plus some needling by
younger army air corps officers.
It happens that Treasury Boss
Henry Morgenthau asked for and
got the job of co-ordinating airplane
purchases, and his bouncing little
cabinet colleague, Henry Woodring,
didn't like it. If you note the con-
gressmen who are stirring up the
investigation on Capitol Hill, they
are chiefly friends of Secretary
Woodring.
Real fact is that although Mor-
genthau has made some minor mis-
takes, his chief error has been in
offending people. Army and navy
plane purchases have not suffered.
Both Secretary of the Navy Edison
and Assistant War Secretary John-
son, who has charge of purchases,
testify to this.
U. S. planes have been delivered
on time, and no secret planes are
getting to the allies.
Morgenthau's chief boner was in
asking the quartermaster general of
the army, Maj. Gen. Henry Gibbins,
and the paymaster general of the
navy, Rear Adm. Ray Spear, to sit
in on his allied purchasing co-
ordinating committee. Neither one
knows anything about airplanes.
Younger officers in the air corps re-
sent this, and have been squawking,
though the able chief of air corps,
General Arnold, hasn't.
Worried Morgenthau.
Morgenthau got into the airplane
picture because this is the one big
commodity the allies are purchas-
ing and he told the President he
; didn't want their financing opera-
j tions to upset the U. S. money mar-
ket. To pay for the planes, the
allies are dumping American securi-
ties, plus U. S. government bonds
and Morgenthau didn't want them
to depress his own government of-
ferings. (He has to issue new ones
constantly.)
Siding with Morgenthau are sev-
eral big shot army-navy men, in-
cluding Johnson and Edison, who
say that the more planes the allies
buy here, the more it helps the U. S.
army and navy to develop better
planes.
For instance, the Glenn Martin
'company is building a brand new
bomber for the French. But as a
j partial result of experimenting for
the French, Martin also has devel-
[ oped a new bomber for the U. S.
| which will- almost fly circles around
the French planes.
Also Lockheed is selling several
hundred tip-top planes to the British
and French. This has helped it de-
j velop a new purf uit plane, which
will make about 400 miles per hour.
It is the first twin-motored pursuit
plane, has a liquid-cooled engine
and is expected to astound the
world's fighting forces.

to clean up Louisiana was that the

By KATHLEEN NORRIS
THE great disadvantage of a
civilization that permits quick
and easy divorces is that no
woman can be sure of her husband
any more, no man sure of his wife,
and no home feel itself safe.
That is the fact, from a purely
practical point of view. The moral
considerations, affecting the vow
men and women take, "for better or
for worse," I leave to the theolo-
gians. I am merely thinking here
that divorce does unsettle the mind
of husband and wife. If there were
no divorce things would go different-
ly in the family circle. But as it
is today no matter how determined
the woman is to make her marriage
a success; no matter how anxious
the man is to have his home one of
the happy homes of the world, there
is always this in the back of the
thoughts of each: "And if it simply
won't work, there's divorce."
In the old days there was much
abuse of a situation that offered no
doorway of escape. No question of
that. Some men were bullies at
home, bad fathers, bad providers,
unfaithful. Wives had no redress.
They bore the children and they
bore with the children's father in un-
complaining martyrdom, year after
year. A friend of mine who mar-
ried a foreigner, 30 years ago, lived
in far and lonely exile from her
own land, and had to endure the
presence of a beautiful dancer, a
chorus girl, in her own home, as her
husband's mistress. When he went
on a pleasant trip, on his yacht or
behind his span of dashing horses,
the dancer went, too. When the
mistress objected to the noise the
children made, the two smallest
ones were sent away to a country
nurse.
Injustices like this made the life
of many a faithful wife and devoted
mother insufferable. Only two gen-
erations ago a father could order
grown daughters supperless to their
rooms, could forbid their marrying
this man or that, could keep them—
and in most cases did keep them,
idle at home, penniless, dependent,
all their days. It came to the 11
Barrett children by slow degrees,
some 60 years ago, that their father
didn't intend any one of them to
have any love affairs whatsoever.
Girl after girl and boy after boy
meekly surrendered all hope of love
and marriage because papa so or-
dained it.
The Natural Reaction.
Modern marriage, with its quick
divorces, its resulting independence
and alimony, is the natural reac-
tion to this unnatural situation. Girls
painfully have fought their way to
independence and freedom, and if
that freedom is being abused in its
turn perhaps that is only the swing
of a pendulum that will presently
right itself. Certainly a husband to-
day is infinitely more reasonable,
considerate and faithful than a hus-
band had to be a few generations
ago, when anything he did was per-
force pardoned by that helpless
companion, who was always and
forever, to the end of the chapter,
until death actually did him part
from her—his wife.
But today's way means that any
attractive woman, perhaps with two
or three unsuccessful marital expe-
riences behind her, can pick upon
any desirable mate, and even though
he be at the time happily married
and with two or three small chil-
dren, can do her best to win him
away from his wife and family and
home. And society, not to be too
flagrantly inconsistent, must stand
by and approve. Unless high moral
conviction, the influence of religion,
or character save him, he may be
drawn away by slow degrees, know-
ing all the time, as his wife knows,
and the woman knows, that a brief
six weeks stay in Reno will suffice
to free him for the intoxications of
the new experiment.
"My life is made completely
wretched by jealous anxieties,"
writes a woman from Columbus,
Ohio. "I've fought it, I've prayed
about it, but with every fresh in-
stance of my husband's attractive-
ness to women and their feeling for
him, I am down in the depths again.
He likes to flirt; he is continually
involved in an affair with some fas-
cinating woman. He writes them
delightful notes; meets them for
lunch, makes them little presents,
but refuses to open his mouth to
me on the subject.
"With the help of a young boy I
do my own work in an eight-room
house," the letter goes on. "We
have two small children, a vegeta-
ble garden, chickens, and I love ev-
ery inch of it. I love my kitchen,
my piano, my books, my room. Why
should all this that I have built up
be jeopardized by the selfishness of
casual outsiders, who at best take
him away from us, waste his mon-
ey, and put us all into a false posi-
tion, and at worst may lead any
day to his asking me to set him
free. I suppose it would be silly
to say that in spite of all this I love
him, but I do love him, love other
sides of his nature which are more
dependable, and I suffer a continual
sense of inferiority and helplessness
very hard to bear."
A Vain Boy at Heart.
This husband, and hundreds like
him, is a type of the man who grows
up in a business sense, and in some
ways in a mental sense, but who
remains a vain boy at heart. He
is as tickled today, at 34, with the
artless flatteries of new women ac-
quaintances, as he was 15 years ago.
He doesn't want to hold his own in
a real world, where friendships,
books, home, garden, children and
birthdays fill his leisure hours.
He doesn't realize that the quiet
companionship of the woman who
has loved him all these years is
real, and that the feelings he thinks
he has for the other woman are self-
deception. He hasn't sense enough
in matters of the heart to look about
him at the men who have married
the objects of their "grande pas-
sion," only to be bored and disil-
lusioned, after a few years. And he
isn't big enough, or his mother didn't
train him thoroughly enough to know
that the only sure path to comfort
and happiness in middle age is to
learn to live the hard married years
in faithfulness and kindness and con-
tent, taking their real joys and rich-
ness in place of the younger excite-
ments and flatteries and dreams.
I say, "the hard middle years."
There IS a hard time in most mar-
riages, when a man is reasonably
sure of his job, a woman absorbed
In nursery and household cares, and
when the glamour of love-making, of
the sacred intimacy and one-ness of
marriage have lost a little some-
thing by familiarity. Dire poverty
and uncertainty, illness and bitter
anxiety for the safety of children
usually spare a family this crisis,
but not all families experience these
extremes, and in easier times we
are all apt to forget the treasure
we have in dreaming of the outside
treasure that might be ours.
After all, the greatest percentage
of human joy comes in a well-
adjusted family circle. Most men
know this. They know in their
hearts that it is only to weak eyes
that the far hills seem the greenest.

Pull the Trigger on
Constipation, and
Pepsin-izeAcidStomachToo
When constipation brings on acid indi-
gestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated
tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your
stomach is probably loaded up with cer-
„ istcd food and your bowels don't
move. So you need both Pepsin to help
break up fast that rich undigested food in
your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull
the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be
Bure your laxative also contains Pepsin.
Take Dr. Caldwell's Laxative, because its
Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that won-
derfulstomachcomfort, while theLaxative
Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the
power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of
undigested protein food which may linger
in your stomach, to cause bclching, gastric
acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin-
izing your stomach helps relieve it of such
distress. At the same time this medicine
wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your
bowels to relieve your constipation. So see
how much better you feel by taking the
laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on
that stomach discomfort, too. Even fin-
icky children love to taste this pleasant
family laxative. Buy Dr. Caldwell's Lax-
ative—Senna with I
