All Of which leaos r1gnG up 70
young Robert" Please open 1t
and read past page one. There's q
surprise inside. regardless Of how
unappealing the idea Of Young
Robert" may be at first.
If George Albee, the author OF
this stimulating biography" made
it UP out Of whole cloth, he not
only deserves plaudits for q very
fertile imagination, but credit for
determining just what to say and
what to leave unsaid. Some Of us,
thanks to this discrimination, will
actually put down the book be-
lieving in the authenticity Of this
brief history Of Robert.
Mr.. Albee aids the illusion by
dedicating his book to Peace,
Bread and the Land" having no
fear that the fire-breathing, BAN
ner-waving Limewrights will drag
him into court. If Limewrights
there are.
The LimewrightS were Roberts
relatives. AS Mr.. Albee says they
flung themselves into living"
Robert was the first one Of them
to be contemplative. He had their
strength and ne had his own
weakness. Not one Of the Lime
wrights were what you would call
normal" They were more like
a fabulous group Of giants. Each
had his STORY and it would be
hard to tell which was wilder than
the rest.
Robert, the contemplative one
who finally turned to poetry, was
brought UP with guys who knew
how to use their fists. On the
one side were the things that made
him ache with beauty on the other
the harum-Scarum, blood-curdling
adventures Of his people who al
most never went to sea, or rode a
horse, or preached a sermon, or
walked their lands without col
lecting a tale to curl the hair.
Robert stood balanced between
these two forces. He was ION y
wire" as the author says, SWAY.
ing, tottering. The slightest push
was enough to make him fall and
he fell down, not up. fell to-
wards the sailor, the livery stable
keeper, the minister Of the gospel
(who made his own religion) and
that other centaur, the uncle who
was a cattleman."
Once down, Robert never came
back. His "wasteful adventure"
ended with q shot in the back.
With his heritage he had to be
a hero. Mr.. Albee says he wouldn't
wait for the World War. He died
in a packing.house strike. We
are glad Mr.. Albee wrote about
him anyway. His is a rare story.

An Ingenious
Plot

There seems to be some slight
disagreement about 1.-THE Pre-
tender" Lion Feuchtwanger's Eng
fish version Of DER FalSche Nero"
The book jacket calls 1t a work
OF pure fiction" while the authors
note blandly declares mot all the
characters Of this novel are flo
titious."
Further, just to keep the record
straight, Mr.. Feuchtwanger goes
to the bother Of listing his sources
Of reference In the back Of the
book. The false Nero Is mentioned
in Tacitus, Suetonius, Dio CassiuS,
ZonaraS and Xiphilinus; also In
the Apocalypse Of John and in the
Fourth Book Of the Sibyl.
No doubt Mr.. Feuchtwanger
conducts his story with pretty
free license. However, the fact
remains that there once was Q
man so like Nero that several mil.
lions Of people rose up and called
him emperor. What Mr.. Feucht-
wanger has to say Of his illStarred
course results In an engroSsing
story.
Nevertheless, the fact that Max
linus Terence actually lived and
looked so much like Nero that the
emperor himself was fascinated
by the resemblance gives weight
to the story and q spur to the
readers enthusiasm
1.-THE Pretender," in short, Is Q
very readable book. '"The Jew Of
Rome" and "Josephus," fine 40
they were, had a limited appeal
They required an interest in his.
tory and a liking for serious, re.
Elective writing. '"The pretender."
on the other hand, is q book for
everybody. It could be read for
sheer fun or for relaxation. Il
would make q delightful vacation
companion for practically any
kind Of reader.
The plot Is most ingenious. The
new Rome with its responsible
temper and its sober reason bat
ties with the incarnate licentiollS'
ness Of the old Rome. The false
Nero stands between. CejonilIS,
Imperial Roman Governor Of Sy'
ria, represents the new and VarrO.
who hopes to unite Rome with the
East, represents the old.
Their quarrel leads to the is
sue Of the false Nero. Nobody,
least Of all Varro believes him to
be Nero In the beginning. But
Varro Is not fighting for the recog.
milton Of Nero but for the recogni
ton Of an idea.

Plan Changes
In Old Law

A move to abate the strict regu'
lation on printing reproductions
of stamp issues is now in full
stride. A bill introduced on be
half of the Treasury Department
provides for the following amend
ments to existing laws:
Removal Of the prohibition
against producing facsimiless
thereby relieving philatelists Of
much grief and confusion In
running down rare issues.
Creation of . regular annual
publication printed by the Post
Office Department, under the
Postmaster Generals Supervi-
sion, showing reproductions Of
all stamps issued during the
year. This would include fac
SMILES without the usual mutila-
ton line across the face"
The Treasury Department rec
concentrations set out:
ut is believed that such .
Government document would
answer the legitimate needs Of
students, stamp collectors and
dealers for an authoritative Cata-
lOgne Of the various United
States stamp issues"
The proposed bill has the ap
proval, it was asserted, of PreSi
dent Roosevelt, who is regarded
as the nations mo. Stamp Col
lector."
Postmaster General Farley's dis
erection in the selection Of stamps
for his publication would be I'M
hampered, it was pointed out. The
bill provides:
"FOr publishing . sheet in
such form and at such time as
he may deem advisable and with
such illustrations and descrip-
tive historical and philatelic In.
formation as he may select"
