the presence OF the girl serves TO re-
kndle all of their former feud spirit.
There follows a rather implausible
series Of intrigues between the two
men, each of whom in turn gets the
better of the other. But in the end
war gets the better Of both of them.
They are in position to dodge the
order to go to the front, but the hyp-
motto curse of war is upon them. The
army has paralyzed their win, and
they proceed to the front, hating war
and despising themselves for their
lack of will.
The fabric of the play is genuine
enough. The atmosphere is portray
ed with a competence that proceeds
from thoro familiarity and fine ar
tistic choice of significant detail. But
the garment that is made of this gen.
uine cloth is rather uncouth affair,
showing neither elegance of workman
ship nor qualities of usefulness. If
not for the pacifist notoriety it
achieved 'eWhat Price Glory?" would
be no more than fairly good play

acted.

recognition.
No artist iss however, safe from the
vulgar appraisal of his admirers, and
surely Lawrence Stallings and Max
well Anderson, the authors of What
Price Glory?" cannot be held account
able for the reactions of the audience.
But they should be held accountable
for the dramatic truth and purport of
the play, and of this little can be said
in their favor. There is a kind of
chaotic elemental protest stirring in
the play against the horror of war,
and shameful, humiliating, degrad-
ing life of the men who are herded
together against their will to fight
somebody without knowing why.
When Captain Flagg, one of the prin-
cipal characters, is about to engage
in fight with Sergeant Quirt over the
possession of a coy prostitute he says
that it is the first time since war began
that he has a real reason for fight
ing. That Captain Flagg embodies all

cynicism professional soldier must

its spirit. But the protest is with him
a chaotic, emotional reaction, nhding
expression in torrents of filthy oaths,
rather than conscious philosophy of
pacifism. Neither Captain Flagg nor
anyone else in the play, voices paci-
fist IDEAS. But the hideous truth about
the marines, the army and the war in
duces in the audience a mood of re-
sentiment against war, and a feeling
of disgust with the soldier procession.
In this sense Rear Admiral Pluncket
is perhaps right when he says that
after reviewing this play, no mother
would allow her son to join the army.
The play, however, lacks in drama
tic conference and purpose. The emo
tional side Of the drama revolves
about the rivalry between Captain
Flagg and Sergeant Quirt over the
French prostitute. Both men are brut-
allied by long career of soldering

Spanish workers remember Ibanez,
how he got his fame by playing the
demagogue, by appearing dramaticly
before crowds of open-mouthed work
ers in the hastily-donned jacket of a
worker, how he even broke into prison
with agitation for a republic, but
when all these things had won him
admiration and renown, Ibanez spurn-
ed the workers interests and only
used his knowledge of their miseries
as literary material.

Ibanez Starts a Bourgeois Revolution

The Spanish LaFollette has declar-
ed war on the Spanish king in be-
half of the untrammelled- dictatorship
of the bourgeoisie and not in the in
terests of the workers. The workers
will be asked to fight for liberty"
only to find that it means the liberty
of capitalism to exploit them. 1t is
not that Ibanez has been silent too
long, but that too long capitalism has
permitted the dead hand of clerical
feudalism to suppress, not liberty, but
business on the Iberian peninsula.

So speaks Vincente Blasco Ibanez

True, Ibanez may get nothing from
the newspapers. Publicity men sell
dom do. But what about someone
else? What about the Spanish bour-
geoisie, who have with ever increas-
ing ayidity watched the progress of cap
