Papers by Wdlter Weyl

The late Walter Wcyl was one of the
most brilliant writer's on the staff of
the New Rcpublic. A collection Of his
articles in that paper has just been
published under the title of Tired Rad =
icals" (B. W. lluebsch) Some of them
were worth while when they were writ

which was one Of the first attempts tc

when it first appeared, and its prescnc,

"reminiscences in two large volumes.
London was perhaps the pioneer OF
the red blooded school, of writer's.
He was what is often now called q
"hc man." and his books often recorded
actual experiences which he had been
through and which he transferred to
his virile heroes. In one Of his BOOKS,
Martin Eden" he gave a thinly veiled
spiritual autobiography Of his own
struggles--with life for literary fame
and with himself for mastery over his
alcoholic predictions. In John Bar
ltycorn" he gave another intimate
revelation of his battle with the demon
rum" Mrs. London gives numerous
details which cover realistically the
periods of these books.
Mrs. London in her introduction
states that she has tried to be Intimate
md personal. She succeeds in being
both subjective and objective. Her
great devotion and affection for Jack
London, whose second wife she was and
whom she made very happy for the last
decade Of his life, through her under,
standing, sympathy and unwcaryina
care, are lovingly reflected in this
memorial biography. Possibly somt
