group of writer's. One might wonder
why. He gives 48 pages to Gertrude
Stein, but leaves out Americas much
admired and beloved Ellen Glasgow.
Gertrude Stein is booked to visit
the States this Fall and deliver a
series of lectures at leading UNIVERSE
ties and clubs. Random House, New
York, has a very pretty welcome in
store for her when she arrives. A
collection of character sketches about
some of her friends is to be just dry
from the press and ready to hand
her. She will also see performance
of her opera, -Four Saints in Three
Acts" for the first time.
The setting for Ellen Glasgow's next
novel-Harcourt, Brace. publishers, is
to be the basin of the James River
between the Blue Ridge and the AL
leghanies. She is forsaking tide water
for while and the new book is to
run through period of 80 years
1901-1933. Much water has passed
under the bridge during that time.
Not from the sublime to the ridicu-
lime. But it is known only to the
epicure or gourmet, however, that 1t

These are cultivated oysters-not

goes well with them unless one pre-
fers wine with more tartness. But
the milder is the best. Read the
Governments bulletin about the long
hours of labor it takes to produce
a succulent oyster which only a
good trencherman can appreciate.
Maybe even Mr.. Blanton of Texas
would be converted to the necessity
for Government bulletins if he tasted
one of these oysters-sans wine, Of
course. II memory is not truant, the
scholarly gentleman from Texas does
not drink.
Mr.. Blanton is, by the way, very
particular about the building and
furnishings of the American embassy
buildings abroad. He does not ap-
pear to think they need rare ma
hogany antiques, neither Persian
rugs. But oh, Mr.. Blanton, those
magnificent caucus rooms in the
House Office Building!

PUBLISHERS AND IVA

Newspaper publishers in the South
are casting a critical eye toward the Ten
nessee Valley Authority and its extensive
free publicity program, whereby this gov
eminent agency in its news releases
seeks to obtain advertising for its approved
electrical appliances without cost.
In bulletin to members of the South
ern Newspaper Publishers Association,
Secretary Cranston Williams asks: "Why
should any government agency competing
with private enterprises not pay for ad-
vertising and publicity just like a private
concern?"
He also cites the fact that the Au-
thority recently distributed 100000 copies
of an elaborate 12-page advertising
pamphlet by mail, postage free under gov
eminent frank, for which a private con-
Germ would have had to pay $3.50 for
postage alone at the third class rate These
government pamphlets were mailed free
as first class matter.
Secretary Williams asks the further
question as to how private business men
and newspapers can compete with this ad-
vertising, the expense of which is borne by
the taxpayers of the entire nation.
Newspapers of the country have been
most generous in giving free space to vari-
Gus government establishments at all times.
They can hardly be blamed for protesting
when the government invades the field of
private business and adopts the unfair
methods mentioned in cOmnntinO wit
newspaper advertising.

A WIDER OUTLOOK

Although many. writer's deplore the
alleged lower standard of current maya
zines which are extremely popular with a
certain class of people, reports from book
sellers and librarians declare that there is
a growing demand for the better sort of
literature
Works dealing with travel, history
and biography are being called for in in
creasing numbers, especially those pertain
ing to foreign countries
There is no doubt that the war and
the important events which have followed
it have given the American people wider
outlook on the world and a desire to know
more of the countries and peoples which
are playing such important parts in its af-
fairs.
Newspapers, generally, both dailies
and weeklieS, find that their readers are
interested in wider range of topics than
formerly, and are giving more space to
