Publicity Is Broccoli

By Constance Hope. Illus
trated by John Groth. The
Bobbs Merrill Co., Indian
apohs.
There are" says Miss Hope,
three kinds of publicity people
the press agent. the pubhcist and
the public relations counsel" The
first variety believes there is no such
thing as bad publicity; he wants to
get your name in the paper on any
pretext. The last-named supposedly
spends more time keeping his
clients name out OF the papers
than he does getting it in. 1t is the
publicist with whom Miss Hope is
concerned, for that is what she is.
The publicist is interested in Great
ing an impression in the public
mind about his client so that the
publicity obtained is not only ia
vorable, but has a definite turn. For
instance: Lauritz Melchior, tenor of
the Metropolitan Opera, became one
of the authors clients at a time
when the public was interested only
in Hollywood-bound singers who
were romantic" And Mr.. Melchior
was married. It was therefore Miss
Hopes job to show that the Great
Dane" as she calls him, was not
only as colorful as his film colony
competitors. but also just as inter-
esting despite his attachment"
Miss Hope records her experiences
covering nine years in the publicity
(news-making) business. Many of
her clients are musical-Liiy Pons,
Lotte Lehman, Eugene Ormandy,
Jascha Heifetz-but others include
restaurants, home organs, the DAN
ish exhibit at the Worlds Fair,
5-and- d-10-cent stores, ct al. The book,
smoothly written and smoothly
.anecdoted, would be more enjoy
able If the reader did not have the
feeling that Miss Hope Is here still
plying her trade, and that she really
doesn't think It's broccoli 1t all.

Ghost Town

BIZ G. Ezra Dane. Alfred A.
Knopf, NetU York.
To gather material for this book
Mr.. Dane and his mother and
collaboration, Beatrice j. Dane,
rented All old house in Columbia,
Calf, in the Mother Lode country.
In the heydey of its prosperity
Columbia was overrun with pros
pectors, gamblers, barroom loungers
and the usual human flotsam and
jetsam of a mushroom mining town.
Thus it becomes a stage, quite
crude, of course, whereon was en-
acted the ever-changing human
drama Of romance, comedy and
tragedy.
At length came the day when
there was no more pay dirt to be
found. Most of the population
drifted on to some other prospective
Ell Dorado and Columbia became
just Ghost Town"
But a few of the old-timers re-
manned and from their anecdotes
of the gala days the Danes have
woven a fascinating chronicle. AS
an example, there is the story of
Black Bart. who, during a period
of eight years as stagecoach
robber, never fired a shot. Another
story describes the daylight lynch
ing of Jack Barclay after he had
murdered a popular miner named
John H. Smith.
Ghost Town" has the color,
action, droll humor and frontier
flavor of many of the stories that
have delighted the readers of Bret
Harte and Mark Twain. To those
who enjoy that type of storytelling
this book will prove enjoyable.

Coesor Stogg
By George Cronyn. Greystone

By George Cronyn. Greystone
Press, Ne,U York.
Mr.. Cronyn's first novel in four
years is a vivid portrayal of an old
standby in fiction writing-Ameri-
can bossism. 1t relates the story
OF j. Caesar Stagg. a typical politi-
cal gangster, who stormed and
wrenched and beat his way to the
top OF his community and his State,
and finally was obliterated by the
efforts of those obscure citizens
whom he he'd ruthlessly ground
under his heel.
Mr.. Cronyn's tale opens to reveal
Stagg making his supreme effort in
running for the United States Sem
ate. The czar's machine has every
thing under control and the elec-
ton seems assured, until Stagg
makes the first of many mistakes;
at a drinking party in his secret
penthouse, girl accidentally is
killed. From there on, as he makes
frantic efforts to cover up any
VI oSCo VI IAA1o POoCAGAdl oCdAlOd1, IlC
gets ever more deeply in trouble.
His personal secretary, who is fanat-
ically faithful to her employer,
finally Is estranged and begins to
hate him; a college boy feels the
power of this machine; a former
valuable political leader for Stagg
is killed in mob battle melted by
the "big shot" These events ulti-
mately result in his downfall, short
ly after he wins the State election.
Even though the book does deal
with a situation that, at the very
best, must be termed trite, the
author has managed to weave an
interesting story. It's unusual
character study and its well-placed
suspense make up for the occa-
sional ,disconcerting jumps into the
past that Mr.. Cronyn uses to gather
up the threads Of his plot.
