Presenting Moonshine
By John Collier. NelO York:
Viking Press.

By John Collier. Nel0 York.
Viking Press.
Almost all the short stories in this
book are written in a mood of
morbid whimsy. Mr.. Collier is an
Englishman, and his stories have
peculiar blend of English humor
and fanciful horror. Some of them
are obscure, some are clear, but all
are slightly oblique. Mr.. Collier has
q polished style, not Shimmering In
the way of Kay Boyle's stories, or
intense and lucid in the way of
Katharine Anne Porters, but, in
stead, covered with sophisticated
gloss. They range all the way from
the overwhimsical Evening Prim-
rose" a story of life CD in great
department store, to the gently sa-
tiric Mary" the story of a young
bride who had to compete with a
trained pig for her husbands love.
There are several stories which rib
writer's and their preoccupation
with style VS.. subject. The satire
and irony are tempered, but they
aye present in almost even amount
in each of these short narratives.
Because they are in this particu-
lar almost precious mood, they are
more effective If read singiy and at
intervalA E.T.

Bp Robert Z. Runser,

Adviser in Military Science, Public Library
The current interest in national
defense not only has created an
unprecedented stir in America S i'll
duStry, but has awakened the read
ers' interest, dormant for over two
decades, in military science and his
tory. Realizing the growing desire
for a more complete understanding
of the military aspects of the pres
ent day, the Public Library, Eighth
and K streets NV, has placed in
circulation many of the newer books
which discuss the study and prob
lens Of modern warfare.
Not small portion of the newer
material treats the specific ques-
tions which are now confronting
this country-defenSe, selective serv-
ice, civilian and economic mobiliZa-
ton. An analysis of the problems
which the United States will have
to meet should general mobilization
become necessary will be found in
Leo Cherne's m Day and What
1t Means to You and Donald f.
Keyhoe's m Day: If War Comes,
What Your Government Plans for
You" These books detail what will
be expected not only of potential
soldiers, but alShpf civilians and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS housewife, the
farmer and the businessman.
The further complexities of in
dustrial conscription, control of pub
lie opinion and regulation of prices,
production and wages are authori-
tatively interpreted in "Mobilizing
Civilian America" by Harold j. To-
bin and Percy w. Bidwell The
growing Importance of these issues

Night Over Europe
By Frederick L. Schunan
NeW York. Alfred A. Knopt

By FredertcH l.. Schunldn
NeU York Alfred A. Knopt.
This is the third volume of Prof
Schumans trilogy on European poll
tics in the recent past. His first vol
ume, The Nazi Dictatorship" came
out in 1885. The second, Europe
on the Eve" appeared in 1899.
There was a great deal Of valu-
able information in both these
works, as there is in the present one,
which is Subtitled THE Diplomacy
of Nemesis: 1939-1940." However,
no reader can escape feeling that
Prof. Schuman writes with a great
degree of personal feeling, and that
his interpretations of his facts are
swayed considerably by his preju-
dices.
These prejudices, in the main,
seem to be hatred of British
policies and an admiration for Rus
sian. He traces, in his present vol
ume. the events throughout Europe
which have led to war and to the
present state of the war. and con-
sistently he sees Britain's Munich
men as the betrayers of peace and
Russia as peace's friend-even to
the extent of defending the Rus
sian demands on Finland. While
many of his facts are valuable, and
while there are few people of good
will today who would defend Brit
aims pre-war politics, the intensely
emotional quality of his writing,
and bis occasional use of admitted
rumor to create impressions which
cannot be turned into facts, dis
credit the book as a whole. What
the author neglects to bring out
clearly is that the governments OF
both England and France, in the
pre-war years, were handicapped by
the disorder which they had in
herited from previous adminiStra-
tions. England. with an overWhelm-
ing pacifist sentiment inherited
from the Macdonald regime, was in
no mood to arm, and so was unable
to oppose Germanys war aims at a
time when she might have done so
effectively. France, at the end OF
the Blum administration, was so
disorganized industrially that she,
too. was in no state to undertake
military measures. The temporizing
in which both governments engaged
was. to some extent at least, un-
avoidable. But Prof. Schuman would
have us believe that 1t was all delib-
crate villainy. He writes in terms
of dead black and pure white. The
reviewer can only say that, in view
of his wide range of information, he
has done himself an injury by this
method. NC. r.

will not find a detailed study of

mentioned, the real emphasis of
the book is in the elucidation of
the new character of the military
machine-a complete coordination
of al arms and units of the army
working as one to overcome a single
objective.
For survey of the principles of
war, in the past and in the pres

as interesting and informative as
has the professional soldier. AS a
companion study, Herbert Rosin-
skis THE German Army" is none
the less revealing in its historical
