Carnegie Institutes A1Dards
Manifest International
Trends in Contemporary
Pnintino

An interesting slant was given the
awards in the Carnegie Institutes In
ternational Exhibition, which opened
in Pittsburgh last Thursday evening
by the first prize being voted by an
Englishman, q Frenchman and two
Americans to 4 painting by Karl
Hofer Of Berlin, particularly inasmuch
as this much-coveted award had never
before gone to a German. 1t is also
remarkable that Of the seven other
prizes five went to French painters
and two to Americans. Evidently in
art internationalism carries the day,
and prejudices, both personal and
national. are completely put aside,
nonor to those to whom, in the esti-
nation Of the artists jury, honors
are due being the order Of the day.
Short Of seeing the 365 paintings in
this exhibition, 1853 OF which, by the
way, came from abroad, one cannot
discuss the wisdom Of the jury's Sc
lections, but judging from reproduc-
tions of the prize-winning canvasses
it is possible to come to certain con-
CluSlOliS III lCBdiu w lAlC pClloCiiSiCo
which they reflect. The frst OF these is
current disregard for the amenities
Of beauty; second, an overpowering
technical aflectation evinced by in
sistently careless brushwork; third, a
deliberate intention to use art as
means Of propaganda for social or gov
ernmental so-called reforms.
OF the eight paintings receiving
awards only the last two seem to have
been painted from the sheer delight
of transcribing objective loveliness.

neighborhood as the Little Gallery,

active operation, under the direction
OF Mrs. D. C. Fox, for the last two
or three years. This coming week
a third small gallery will be opened
by Miss Isobel Dexter and her sister,
Mrs. Mary Walton, at their home, at
7l03 Old Georgetown road, Bethesda,
to which they have given the pic
turesque name, Chalet Nonpareil."
The inaugural exhibition in these new
quarters will consist Of paintings, wood
blocks and pen sketches by NJ. Jean
Girard OF Paris, whose work is de-
scribed as peculiarly French and true
to the best traditions Of the art of
his country" In the Little Gallery
an exhibition Of portraits by Gina
Adele Brennan is on view, whereas
at the Georgetown Galleries paintings
and prints by local and out-of- town
artists are being shown. II this in
crease in showrooms is indicative, as
it seems to be, of more widespread
appreciation, nothing could be better.

Because I have always argued
that Secretary Ickes' PWA pro-
gram was the best investment this
Administration has made, I am
pleased with the recent report Of
Labor Statistics which states that
each IS cents of Federal contribu
ton to the PWA construction dol
lar for the past five years has
made possible more than an hour
Of employment at prevailing wages
And remember, j. E., that
when PWA speaks Of prevailing
wages it means UNION wages,
which go as high as $1.20 an hour
for skilled labor in some sections.

By THOMAS r. HENRY.

Finding of new cross roads in the
brain, together with new means OF
probing the brains interior, was re-
ported before the American Academy
OF Opthalmology and Otolaryngology
meeting here yesterday afternoon by
Drs. Norman P Scala of Georgetown
University and E. A. Spiegel of Temple
University, Philadelphia.
The finding came from study of the
phenomenon of nystagmus, or rapid
horizontal movement of the eye, usu-
ally accompanied by dizziness. Three
mechanisms have long been known.
One is due to nerve impulses from the
labyrinth of the inner ear resulting
from rotary motion. This is the basis
Of the whirling chair test in neuro-
logical examinations, the existence OF
the nystagmus showing integration OF
this part of the nervous system.
Other Type Explored.
In addition, the eye can be. moved
horizontally voluntarily by impulses to
the muscles coming from the motor
area near the front Of the brain. An
other type may result from watching
a rapid procession of objects moving
in one direction, or by moving rapidly
past a succession of still objects. Some
get it from looking out of q moving
train. This type also is accompanied
by dizziness and in the past has been
supposed to be due to nerve i'm
pulses moving from the visual GEN.
ters in the back of the brain, over the
top of the brain to the frontal areas
and hence to the eye muscles.
BY a long series Of experiments the
two physicians have determined that
it may also be due to impulses moving
along the optic nerve from the eye to
structures in the middle Of the brain
known as the superior colliculi and
from there short-circuited to a center
In the medulla Of the brain just above
the spinal cord which is known as the
vestibular body, which partly controls
the body's equilibrium and damage tc
which produces dizziness symptoms.
Submerged Route Found.
In this small center, their expert
ments demonstrate, nerve impulses OF
all four kinds which might cause hori-
zontal movements Of the eye and &C.
companying dizziness come together
like highways in a forest. The latest
discovered road never comes to the
surface Of the brain but always fol-
lows q submerged route to the eye
muscles.
Perse, the condition known as op-
tokinetic nystagmus, Is rare and clears
up quickly by itself. The significance
OF the finding lies in its use as pos.
sible probe in brain surgery, by which
the site of brain tumor may be To-
Gated. One by one the various nerve
impulse paths can be eliminated with
the end possibility of locating the
tumor In the midbrain or in the
medulla itself. Also the direction o1
the nystagmic motions can be used te
indicate the side of the brain which il
