ANONYMOUS COMMUNICATIONS.

An ANONYMOUS communication sent
to a newspaper Is not apt to do much
harm unless it be to the writer there
of. for there is small chance Of its
ever being read by any other person.
Probably the people who write let
ters to newspapers without signing
Their names have an impression n a
everything that comes to the editors
desk is read. 1t isn't, by a jugful.
Before anything else is done with
such a volume Of mail as comes to a
daily newspaper office it is sorted, to
ascertain what parts of it need at
tention and what do not. In the lat
ter class is a large quantity Of mis-
c%ellaneous matter, circular and other
wise, all proper enough in its way.
which needs only a glance to show
that il needs no further attention
than to be passed on to the wastebas-
ket into which it goes without cere-
mony.
The anonymous communication US
,ally shares this fate. The presump-
ton is that the letter to which the
writer has not seen fit to attach his
name is one which it would be a
waste of time to read. and into the
basket it goes. Occasionally there is
an exception. In the rapid inspection
of a. letter which would otherwise be
dumped without ceremony, a word or
a phrase may chance catch the eye
and lead 10 a closer inspection, MOT
for purposes of publication, but as a
rather interesting study in human ma
ture. In the course of this study i.
develops that most anonymous letters
are abusive.
Here we have an interesting bit Of
psychology. II the letter abuses
third persons they are o even an
noyed, because, as such letters are
never published, they never know of
the abuse. If it is the editor who is
lambasted, which is often the case, he
is unruffled, for no n pays attention
to condemnation unless he knows
that it comes from a source which he
respects. The writing of such mis-
sives may relieve the writer's feelings,
hut it al do nothing more.
The combination of a~busiveness
and anonymity. which is often found,
demonstrates that a~busiveness and
co~wardice usually go together.
OF course. thnre are often sound
and valid reasons why the writer Of
a letter intended for publication does
not wish his name to appear in
print. II The Herald receives such
a letter. with the writer's name at
tached, and the request is made that
the name be not published, that re-
quest is always respected. Either
the letter will be published without
the name, or it will not be published
at all. Whether or not it Il pub
lished depends entirely on the edi-
tors judgment as to its suitability
under all the conditions surrounding
lhe operation Of a newspaper.

"ART'' HAS BOOM.
By BRIGGS

London, Feb. 17!-"Art," so far as
the production of pictures is concern
cd, is said to have had a. great boom
in Bolshevist Russia owing to the
fact that the government pays a lib
eral amount for all works approved
by. official experts.
The whole domain of art has been
placed under the control OF a. council
of even members. four of whom arc
apostles of futurism. Artists earnings
have been increased through a rule
established by the council under
which all pictures that pass the judges
are to be paid for at the uniform rate
of 1000 rubles each.
Whether the . artist has devoted
months of a%ssiduous labor to a pic
ture or whether it Is a daub which
has stake9 a few hours to paint. the
recoimpense is the same With such
encouragement the number Of artists
in Russia is increasing <apidly.
