GOVERNMENT

w. Reed West, professor OF pol
itical science, George Washington
University says, SIN my opinion,
the problem of the next decade
will be the adjustment of demo-
cratic processes to complex and
mechanical civilization. The ten
dency has been to turn to the ex-
ecutive for leadership, but legisla-
lures should control policies while
leaving details to experts.
If the executive determines
policies while congressman pass
their time in committees, the pro-
cess is reversed. The next decade
will witness further growth in the
administrative branch, but since it
ic inconceivable that dictatorship
can be permanent solution I be-
lieve that legislatures will envolve
methods of transferring details to
experts without surrendering con-
troll of policies.

"A Raphael, Worth 100000

more than 100 years had been taken
for a copy of the Madonna of the
Rose" in the Prado galleries in
Madrid. The Madonna of the
Rose" experts have agreed, was the
work either of Giulio Romano or
Pierino del Vaga, pupils of Raphael.
When Prof. Martinez Delgado was
in Chicago, he said he examined the
oil painting of his find minutely, had
it X-rayed and had its pigment
analyzed chemically, and was con-
vinced the painting was not a copy.
The picture, encased in cracked
gilded frame, shows the Madonna,
Saint Joseph, the infant Saint John
and the Christ child.
Mr.. Marzolo may be commissioned
to restore the painting. He said the
Madonna of Bogota" was split down
the middle and in about so spots the
paint had been Clipped off. The
flesh of the infant Saint John, the
face of the Madonna and the body
Of the Christ child had all been
literally retouched by comparatively
modern renovators. X-ray exam
nations. he said, revealed original
pigment underneath. 1t is intended
eventually to exhibit it at the Chi
