Is Mr.. HARRISON THROUGH?

Speaking of American noyelsts, hear that
Henry Sydnor Harrison has been telling his
friends he will probably write no more fiction.
He has not produced line since he penned
fms to "Angela's Business" some two years
ago, and went off to join the American Ambu
lance Corps with the French army. He has
now been back for year, but his publishers
have had no encouraging word from him.
While abroad he saw something of the first
battle of Loos (how long ago that seemsD, he
was in Dunkirk when the Germans first shelled
that place with long-range guns, and once
bomb dropped by German air scout missed
him by few yards Experiences crowded
upon him during his months at the front, but
he has been unable to make copy out of the
war. He takes it too seriously for that. He

many others, all very we'll in their way, but
not to be compaRd in range and power with
the larger units of the British feet. Then we
have many vessels of the Chambers Owen
Johnson type, which are really only armed mer-
chantmen, designed for commercial purposes
rather than actual literary warfare. We pos
sess a whole fleet of popgun boats, sailing in
the shallow, landlocked waters Of the popular
magazines. Supplementng these are the mid
Victorian sailing frgates, like the James Lane
Allen, the armament of which is wholly inof-
fensive. Then there are, of course, our scou.
or detective cruisers, patterned after the in
comparable British Holmes, that unravel thirty
knots an hour, but possess an almost negligible
literary armament. These must not be con-
fused with the boy scout cruisers, such as the
Owen Wister and the Ernest Thompson Seton.

."No, have not forgotten it, but ! could for
give it if it did not always sail over the same
course"
"And there are the Irv Cobb, the AIDE and the

went on, "the New Republic group, the Atlantic

good criticism"

Meanwhile, we are coming on, strictly under
our own steam In the last few years many
new American fiction writers of splendid in
terpretative powers have come forward, such
as Ernest Poole, Dorothy Garfield Fisher Ste
phen Whitman, Henry Sydnor Harrison and
James Oppenheim. Periodicals of distinction
and power, like 1.-THE New Republic" and that
irrepressible "The Masses" have appeared and
command an increasing public. 1.-THE Masses"
would be suppressed Immediately in England.
Here we suppress it only in the subway, which
is by way of being compliment.
George Moore has said that the future of the
English language lies in America. 1t is
prophecy worth bordering by our Tory PES
simists. Certainly it will never be fulfilled
unless we believe it ourselves. We may not
have any literary uper-dreadnoughts sailing
the inky seas, but undoubtedly there are some
on the ways.

did not go over to look for material, but solely
to do his bit for the wounded in France.
When Mr.. Harrison was graduated fros
Columbia, in 1900, he became a teacher in n'
Brooklyn Latin School, which was run by D.
father. On his fathers death he became PR
cipal. After he had become as good schoe
master as he had it in him to be, he quit az
went to Richmond, Va, where he became "

he succeeded to the editorship of the psps
But after he decided he had learned all
could about newspaper editing he resigned

months he had ready the manuscript y
"Queed." At this time he remarked AFTER

If Mr.. Harrison quits fiction he will be e',
sistent, at any rate. "Angela's Bushes
marks a big advance in construction and tsc'
nique over "Queed," though "Queed' viii I"
main the trademark of Mr.. Harrison.
1t is to be hoped Mr.. Harrison will chang
his intention and give us some more s''
books. We cannot easily spare him. But
he does go in for some activity other than nov
writing, we can be sure whatever he does W
be interesting, and it will be well done.

"a critic comes naturally in the destroyer
class" he said. 81 think this portion of our
literary feet would be more effective if it were
not overweighted with its armament of Har-
vardzed steel. But super-dreadnoughts are
our bitter need. And nobody is doing any
thing to get them. Billions for battleshps is
the cry, but not one cent for literary dread
noughts."
"But we can't go to the Cramps and ask
them to build us dozen literary dreadnoughts
Of, let us say, the Shavian type" protested.
Unfortunately, such things are born, not
made. We can't buy them"

he added. 1--WE have loaned the Allies half a

why not wipe out the debt on consideration
that they turn over to us the French super
dreadnought Anatole France and the British
superdreadnoughts Wells, Conrad, Galsworthy.
Shaw, Stephens, Chesterton and Bennett, and
as many more units Of their literary fleet as
we can bargain for? We might let the Inter-
borough lawyers conduct the negotiations for
