EYES CLOSED, NOT ASLEEP
Editor Offers to Put Lingerie on
Cover Design of Magazine.
Told It Won't Do.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10-If you're a
subscriber to The International Mag
azine you're probably wondering why
in the world the January number
doesn't come. Well, have patience;
it'll be along just as soon as the edi
tors can find a new cover that will
satisfy the postal authorities. They've
tried to revise the present one, but
their efforts have not met with the
approval of Postmaster Morgan. He
just can't think of letting his mail
clerks get a glimpse of that PERM
cious picture.
It's merely another case of High
Art and sordidly material minds
clashing, according to George Syl-
vester Viereck, editor of the maya
zine. And what makes him so angry
that he has broken two pairs of eye
glasses and offended his new office
boy is the fact that the picture on the
cover was drawn to illustrate an ar
ticle on The New Freedom" not by
President Wilson, but by Havelock
Ellis.
New Kind Of Freedom.
This is a new kind OF new freedom,
entirely different from the one meant
by President Wilson. The Chief Ex-
ecutives new freedom has for its
basis the unshackling of the chains
!, ioh aCep tie,
have wound round this country. Mr..
Ellis new freedom is merely a cam
paign to do away with clothes. a
Therefore, when T. R. Chapman, hn
artist, was commissioned to draw d
picture representing the most salient
feature of the article, he did. Take
the word of an observer, he was mar
velously successful.
He pictured a slim young lady
poised on her toes on a black back
ground, one hand making a gesture
near the neck and the other knotted
up at her side. Her head is thrown
back and her eyes are closed. but
there is a sort of Mona Lisa express
sion to the face that warns the OBJ
server that she isn't sleeping.
Would you call that suggestive or
anything Objectionable? demanded
Mr.. Viereck, Indignantly. Isn't that
artistic and gloriously beautiful?
Doesn't it stir your sense Of poetry
and your artistic Instincts"
Offers to Drape Figure.
Il offered to drape it in. lingerie, to
put on a harem costume. to stamp
the body with black erasion if the
postal authorities would only permit
me to mark each magazine cover
censored but each request was re-
fused. Now, we must get new COW
err" continued Mr. Viereck. "Oh, oh,
this age. these people who can not
can not see the artistic, the beautiful
oh, oh. what an administration"
About this time emotion overcame
him and hs ended his rhapsody in
German.
So The International, will be late
this month at the homes and news
stands The agents love their art,
they tell Mr.. Viereck, but this is a
new administration, whose tastes in
pictures and magazine covers isn't
very well known yet.

Sends Back Dickens
Hair; Saves $70Duty

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10.-The recent
decision of the Treasury Department
that a lock of hair clipped from the
head of Charles Dickens did not con-
stitute in itself an antiquity resulted
in it's shipment back to England.
The Treasury held that although
Dickens, if living, would be more than
one hundred years old, it was clearly
evident that the lock of hair could not
lay claim to any such age. An an
tiquity. as viewed by the Treasury Of
ficials, must be at least a century old.
The Dickens relic had been sold in Lon
