Queen Anne BoIeyn
BIZ Francis HncEetf

By Francis Hackett. Neu York:
ley7" doubleday, Dordn.
Francis Hackett seems loath to
abandon the 10Th century in his
writings. The latest of these, styled
an historical novel, is his third con-
secutive book to be set in that epoch
and might be considered an elabora-
ton of his sterling Henry the
Eighth"
AS with its predecessors. queen
Anne although fictionalized, is
stepped in fact as the indomitable
Mr.. Hackett has unearthed it from
his rich and authentic sources. The
author in an epilogue solicitously
distinguishes between the factual
and the flctional in dramatizing the
well-known and little-understood
legend of the maid of honor who
captivated a kings heart so that the
monarch rocked the foundations of
the religious world to make her his
queen.
Mr.. Hackett has always taken
this historical period very seriously,
fact evident in his careful deline-
alton Of characters, the detailed sur
roundings and atmosphere of
Henry's England As far as this goes,
the book is stimulating. If the
whole seems unlively and overdrawn,
it is probably due to the authors
coverage Of every manner of detail
in gradually building to the climax.
Compared with his Henry the
Eighth this work stands consider
ably overshadowed, the former bio
graphy, with all its scholarly ap-
proach, radiating much more vitali-
ty.
However, with the tender frustrat-
ed love Of Anne for Thomas Wyatt,
her relentless hatred for Cardinal
Wolsey, her surge of ambition as the
throne came nearer-with all this the
book could not be other than grip
ping and suspense-laden Those who
like their reading matter dosed with
love, dark intrigue and tragedy will
find ample satisfaction. Those who
admire Hackett the historian had
better avoid Hackett in Q romantic

Food Queries Receive
Answers at Libraries

Perhaps the foreign restaurants
at the Worlds Fair are partly re-
sponsible for the lively interest in
foreign and regional cooking and in
the preparation and serving of food.
The following are some of the ques-
tions asked at the Public Library,
Eighth and K streets NV, and its
branches:
How can I make Crepes Suzette?
Have you any New Orleans recipes?
Do Boston cooks use molasses in
their baked beans?
Is all the silver used at dinner
placed on the table at the same
time?
The library suggests for our ma
tive American dishes, The New
York Worlds Fair Cook Book" by
Crosby Gaige. 1t has character
istic recipes and menus from every
State in the Union, we'll arranged
and attractively presented. Rules
for fish chowder, huckleberry pam
cakes and other New England spe-
cialties may be found in The New
England Cook Book of Fine Old
Recipes" by Kay Morrow. Moving
southwark. Eat. Drink and Be
Merry in Maryland" by Frederick
Stief, is a collection of tried recipes
OF famous Maryland houses and
housekeepers, with many rules for
seafood in the Maryland style. THE
Savannah Cook Book" by Harriet
Ross Colquitt, gives you Georgia
coast cooking at its best, and for a
vision of past glory, read the recipe
for Chatham Artillery Punch!
If you have nostalgia memories
of your favorite restaurant in Paris
or Rome and wish you could repro
duce the savory dishes you had
there, try "The European Cookbook
for American Homes" by Cora. Rose
and Bob Brown. It contains an ex.
cellent collection Of recipes from
Italy. Spain, Portugal and France.

of course the present Mortified inter-
est which Germany has for the
world cannot be wholly discounted.
But even that plays into the psycho-
pathic setup. 1t adds the dark at
traction of sadism. On the whole,
one must congratulate the author.
She has played all the stops. One
wonders if it is by design that she
has done so? NC. r.

Appleton Century.
This is one more of Miss Ertzs
pleasant, uneventful little novels,
story just sufficiently wise not to
be dull and just dull enough to
escape being demanding. You can
read 1t or leave it; it's that sort
of thing. Miss Ertz seems to have
special talent for that indispen-
sable kind of literary time filler.
Here she takes up the case of three
American sisters who meet after

fathers home There is the one

The Last Trogedion
Otis Skinner. NeU

Otis Skinner. Ne1D YORK:
Dodd, Mead e. Co.
This book purports to be an inter-
probation, rather than biography,
of Edwin Booth, who made theater
history In the middle Of the 18th
century. Much of the material con-
sists Of Booths letters to his family
and friends. To the person not al
ready acquainted with the outlines
of the tragedian's life, the book pre-
sents a confused impression OF a
man whose own life contained more
tragic elements than he was ever
called upon to portray on the stage.
We gather from the book that he
inherited a streak of insanity, al
though it was at no time active mad
ness; that he was more than a little
addicted to drink, that he lacked all
financial sense, which kept him in
continual financial hot water de-
spite a large income, and that his
second marriage was definitely un-
happy. Little is learned about the
tragic murder of President Lincoln
by his brother, and the effect of this
calamity upon his own life. Nor is
much learned about the theater dur
ing his lifetime, which is disappoint-
ing to the general reader, inter-
ested in dramatic history.

There are also the Englishman and

certainly not profoundly goes in for

Can America Stay Neutral?
BIZ Allen w. Dulles and Ham,

York: Harper G. Bros.
Here are two books, both written
in questioning mood, to deal with
the subject which is foremost with
our people today-shall We enter
new European war if it becomes ap-
parently necessary for us to do so
in order to save democracy in the
world, and will We be able to re-
main neutral, even if We decide for
neutrality? Mr. Hoover. treating of
the first aspect of the matter, an
swers an uncompromising no. And
Mr.. Dulles and Mr. Armstrong,
taking up the second aspect, put
before us rounded legal view of
our possible entanglements and
obligations. 1t is to be expected
that yet other works will be written
on the subject but these come from
pens sufficiently eminent to win
serious consideration.
Mr.. Hoover write obviously in deep
emotion He is not an eloquent man
In the easy, flowing sense Of the
adjective. His style is always heavy,
yet, when his feeling is aroused, he
produces an effect of labored. an

Britain Believes Present Lull
 Is Before Storm

UNDATED. Oct. 4 lP)-Britain and France refused to yaild to "a scarcely yelled threat of Soviet and German collaboration If the European hostilities con- tinue, Chamberlain acting as spokesman for the British and French allies, in the House of Commons said the allies will examine and test" any German peace proposals but no mere assurances from the present Ger man government can be accepted by us"
 The threat was implied he said in a Soviet-German declaration which partitioned Poland was mentioned as an alternative of consultation if the western allies failed to make peace. He said nothing in the declaration could swerve the allies from effective prosecu..on of the war.
 Authoritative sources in Berlin indicated Germany and Russia would consult after the western powers declared their attitude. Informed sources both in Berlin and Rome expressed the belief that no new peace proposals would be put forth immediately by Mussolini as suggested after the Italian Foreign Ministers wis it to Hitler Sunday.
 The Soviet government news paper Izvestia gave strong hint that Finland as well as all the Baltic states received Russian de mands for naval and military bases.
 Britain is apparently charting her course in the belief that the present diplomatic maneuvers are merely lull before a great CT storm of warfare The British press backed the stand taken by Chamberlain that any peace pro posals would be tested in the light of previous Nazi pledges which he said had been worth less"
 Hitler was described by inform ed persons in Berlin as holding that Chamberlain's speech didn't give clear reply to the German Soviet peace declarations made when the two powers partitioned Poland.

NEW YORK, Oct. (P)-In dramatic, noisy ending, Charley Keller tripled and Bill Dickey brot him home in 9th inning to give the word champion Yankees two to one victory over the Cincinnati Reds in the first game of the 1889 Word Series.
 The sudden ending of one of the tightest hurling tests in re- cent series history came with one out in the final frame. Keller sent a tremendous fly almost to the center field wall, 4O7 feet from the plate and Goodman barely got his hands on the ball. Joe DiMaggio purposely passed and Dickey rifled a liner into short center with the count at one to one to end the game.
 Red Ruffiing held the Reds to four hits The Tanks got just six hits off Paul Derringer, Cincinn- atti ace. The courageous Reds battled every step of the way and scored the first, jabing home run in the fourth inning when Goodman walked to second and raced around on Frank McCor- mick's second single of the game.
 The Yankees knotted the score in the last half of the fifth with sharp single through third by Gordon and hard liner to the left fitld by Babe Dahlgren, good for two bases.
 Both pitchers were at top form offering a dazzling assortment of fast balls, curves and changes of pace. Derringer struck out seven batters and every player in the Yankee lineup except Joe Di- Maggie. Red Dolf gvae only one base on balls. Ruffiing, flaming four and was giving amazing support in three of the first five innings. New York's great in field produced unmatched double plays. Three singles Ruffiing al- lowed but after the fifth chap ter Ruffiing retired every Gin cinnatti batter in order, until they were expectel to break up their order. Derringer was equal ly as good.
