And What
They Do
'Sieefried' Writer
Now Is French
War Official
By LEMUEL F. PARTON,

In 1923 Jean Giraudoux staged his
play, "Siegfried," in which an alien
OF an unknown country became
chancellor Of Germany. 1t sympa-
thized with postwar Germany and
set up a dramatic antithesis Of the
German and French minds, carica-
turing both, subtly and ironically
debating the war spirit-as did his
Amphitryon 49," through which
the Lunts romped so happily two
years ago.
M. Doumic, crusty old academi-
clan, roared with rage and de-
nounced M. Giraudoux as pro-Ger-
man. But the play was a hit, and
today it is Jean Giraudoux, drama
list and novelist, who is director Of

He is hlghbroW, as is Lord MacMil-

Joseph Goebbels, Germany's war
time wordsmith, is as bookish as the
best of them, but the academic

with virulent hatred of all ideas

Today both sides are quick on the

OF Ideas. This time, England and
France lead with a pair of experts.
Reading the French newspapers
provides possible explanation Of
why they go to literary cloister
for their word-warrior. They are
distinctly idea papers and not news
papers. They muff news and they
bungle 1t or ignore it, but they
kick up laundering excitements
about ideas. And, in all his plavs
and books, NJ Giraudoux works
entirely in the theater of ideas.
In his strange, diffuse, hermetic
style, he splays out his theme in
a vaguely ethereal universe and it
gets lost somewhere in the mists.
But it seems to be real to his
audience, and 100000 Frenchmen
can't be wrong.
He comes down from only half
way up the ivory tower. Now So
