WaShingtOn's Picture

Probably it is too bad that New
York's Metropolitan Museum of Art
had to cast aspersions on the famous
painting of George Washington cross
ing the Delaware within a few weeks
of the 200th anniversary of Wash
ingtons birth. Granting that the
picture was artistically defective, it
is probably one of the most widely
known. paintings in North America;
and it will be, for years to come,
whether art critics assail it's merits
o: not.
And that, by a somewhat round
about route, leads one to wish that
the camera, especially the movie
camera, could have been invented a
couple of centuries earlier than was
really the case.
This painting. like many others,
owes its existence to our intense de-
sire to have history illustrated. 1t
isn't enough to read about things;
we want to see, we want to know ex-
actly how things looked at the mo-
ment they were happening. To read
about Washingtons dramatic thrust
at Trenton is exciting. To see a pic
turc Of it, even a poor picture, is bet
ter.
So We get such paintings, a:sd grow
fond of them, even though we know
that they are bad paintings
But what wouldn't We give for a
few photographs!
Some photographs of Washington
himself, for Example. We have plenty
of paintings, but they don't quite
make him clear to us. They contain
too much of the painter; they look
too noble: they don't quite come
alive. II only some newspaper pho
tographer could have caught him,
say, when he was chatting with La
fayette, or when he was at ease in
some inn, or when he was leading his
troops into action!
And the newsreels would be price,
less. If we had just few Smudged

would be living stuff, in that case.
But we have none Of these: 50, II

the fact that the National Bureau

the bureau has not only outlined
what the Legion might do in attack
ing the serious problem, but suggests
how 1t may be done.
Every phase Of the subject is clear
ly and definitely covered in this at
tractive pamphlet of SO pages, which
is now going to every post in the
United States. The situation in in
dustry, the home. the school and the
street are all explained with SUCCESS
tons for programs looking to IN
provement. Principal emphasis is
laid on street and highway acci-
dents. Legionnaires are advised toll

a great work and its efforts will
make life little safer for us all.
