 COP CONVENTION

Cleveland, Oct. 27. = CUE) -- Cleveland hotels are receiving ap- plications for reservations today from many groups which believe that the Republican national con. ventlon may be held here next year; as it was in i9S0.
 The reservations, generally on a ''when and if" basis, ask for all kinds Of accommodations - from 0 single room with shower to large suites. one application asked for 10 rooms in addition to temporary room" into an oface.
 Hotel ofEicials said all applicn- tons would be treated with "due consideration" despite the fact that Cleveland may see the convention 70 to Chicago, which the once Of Defense Transportation contends is more centrally located.
 A committee headed by Frank J. Latsche, mayor of Cleveland, re- gently went to Washington in an effort to convince Republican party leaders that the convention is best suited for Cleveland, with its spa cious public auditorium. r,
 Although the 1030 convention was held here, COP leaders usually frown on holding the important sessions in Q state which has Q ''fa- vorite son 'as Q Presidential hope full. Ohio has Governor John w.. Bricker again, as in 1040.
 One of the stout supporters of Cleveland for the convention next year Is Wendell Wilkie, who was nominated by the Republicans in l040 in Philadelphia. "Old Guard GOP'ers would be expected to op- pose Willkie's wishes, however, in the matter.
 The 1886 convention brought ape proximately 26,000 outsiders" to Cleveland who spent between 4o00,- 900 and $1,00O,000 in new money" during their stay of about two weeks. The Great Lakes Exposition, in progress at the time, received a big boost.
 But the lo44 convention, no mat ter where 1t is held, probably will be streamlined to conform to wartime restrictions on travel. housing and hotel facilities, food and other nec- essary accommodations. It may be that alternate delegates will stay home.
 Cleveland's big Republican bus inessmen would be expected to con tribute at least $l25,000 in order to hope to bring the convention here next year. The subscription in 1e36 totaled Sl50,000. excluding S50,000 realized through the sale of the convention booklet.
 The Republican National Com mittee meets early next year to de- eide which city in which to hold the convention. Meanwhile, Cleve- land city officials plan to keep up e steady campaign to have the ses- sions here.

PATCH DIRECTS. 75,OOO IN WAR.
 ON U. s. DESERT.
By JERRY HANNIFIN

 salem. ore, oct. 27.-(UP)-The Tb .0OO men engaged in the Battle of Oregon" somewhere on the Gen. tral Oregon desert plateau are be- irr exposed to the toughest Kind of tactical training short of actual combat.
 Mai Gen. Alexander M. Patch, who commanded U. s. forces on C,t,adalcanal last year, is directing Rhe nine phases of the battle opera lions in Q 10,000-square-mile area containing some of the Western united States worst terrain, includ- ng mountains, desert and swamp.
 The battlet problems are fought ender Q fog of volcanic dust which lrifts like snow over men and ve- hicles, lowering several thousand feet in the air. The United Press correspondent flew over General sherman tanks engaged in flank lne operation during the second problem and noted dust at 5000 feet.
 Two British officers, formerly with Che eth Army in North Africa, Col. Colin E. A. Browning and Col. G. Colchester, said Montgomery's army did not face the dust problem which confronts the men in Central Oregon. The Britishers were in the field to study American tactics, training and equipment.
 Mai. Harold Douds of Fort Knox, Ky, Q tank unit commander, said Heven California offers pleasanter dust than this stuff. It has caused severe wear on moving parts, de- spite various dust screens which our men have rigged up to protect the motors.
 'This Oregon volcanic variety of dust is the worst I've found," he declared.
 Despite the dust, medical officers reported the men in excellent health generally. There were few cases of respiratory disturbances caused by the dust, but the use of goggles and respirators enabled even dust.sensitive soldiers to carry on.
 Col. Edward c. Snow of the Fourth Corps Public Relations Of- flee explained the nine problems in the maneuvers were not planned particularly to permit a clear de- cision regarding a victory" by one army with defeat" by another.
 Rather, the phases are tactical exercises, designed to test the ini- tiative of commanders and to teach troops the simple fundamentals.
 'rMen must learn to dig slit trenches every time they stop; to camouflage equipment with mate rial at hand, and to absorb some of the feeling of actual combat--even through there is no substitute for it," Colonel Snow said.

EDDY TN TRIBUTE
 TO RUSSIAN AID

Dr. D. Brewer Eddy, secretary of the American Board of Commis- sioners for Foreign Missions, ad- dressed a meeting of the Waterbury Women's Club yesterday afternoon on Current Events.
 Dr. Eddy, who was in Russia in 1887, declared that no nation has ever made such gifts to America, or saved us from such crisis, as Russia, but stated that the darkest cloud we must face is what would happen if Germany and Russia should get to- gether again.
 Mrs. John W. Potter, president, presided at the business meeting, and paid tribute to the late Mrs. David P. Gaines who had been Q member of the club since 1922.

Maj. Gen. James L. Bradley, both West Pointers, have commanded the Red and Blue armies during the first three problems, which were meeting engagements, one army being outnumbered two to one for purposes of the problem.
 In one of the problems General Cook found his left flank threatened by an armored task force. Imme- diately he rounded up his KP'S, cooks, typists and orderlies, armed them and sent them out to stop the attack. They did.
 Supply troops work day and night during the problems, moving thou sands of gallons of water, gasoline and tons of equipment to the front lines.

New Exhibitions at Phillips

Back in the 20s, when one of Marin S
annual exhibitions of watercolors
was opened at Alfred Stieglitz's GAL
lery in New York City, critic wrote:
This is one of the tests that can
didates for connoisseurship in the
arts art put through annually. The
tests do not grow any easier as
time goes on, yet more and more
people make the grade, aided no
doubt by the initiated, who begin
proSelyting, like devotees of a new
religion, as soon as they themselves
get the cue"
Washington art lovers have been
given a number of opportunities by
the Phillips Memorial Gallery to
see, try to understand and possibly
to enjoy, Marin. Some people do
all OF these. The artist gave clues
to his own work in an essay or
article in the form of free verse,
published in Creative Art" in 1928.
Among other things he said:
There will be the big, quiet forms,
there will be all sorts of movement
and rhythm beats one-two- three
-. tWo-two-three {. three-one- -one
all sorts-all seen and expressed in
color weights" etc.
Artistic Attitude
Apropos of judging and under
standing anything, incidents some
times help us. For example, a few
years ago the writer attended a con-
vention in San Francisco. A feature
one noon was luncheon at a Russian
restaurant, where we had "blinis"
with caviar and thick, sour cream
and other typical Russian dishes.
When we left the place, one indig-
nant-looking delegate snapped:
WELL, 81 for that lunch was out
rageous! Why, the cream was
sour!"
1t apparently never occurred to
her that the meal was a complete
success, judged in terms of the Rus
sian chefs objectives. She judged it
In terms of her own ideas of cookery.
Many people approach art trying to
find in 1t what they like or expect
rather than trying to discover what
the artist had in mind.
The latter attitude is necessary
when viewing such paints as Mar
ms. His captures of the Maine
coast, New England mountains and
other subjects seem to be whispered
suggestions about certain aspects
fragmentary glimpses rather than
full-throated statements.
At any rate. the Phillips Gallery
is to keep this exhibition until
the end Of September, which will
give Washingtonians plenty OF op-
portunity to make what they can
OF 1t.

AS one goes over the many works
of postwar planners today one no.
tices in almost every book curious
blind spot Few of the future blue
printers, indeed, have given serious
attention to the structure on which
their brave new worlds will have to

the cessation of hostilities is some
thing which seems hardly to interest
them at all. They either begin as If

which nothing at all of past eras re-

The reason for the hiatus in their
thinking is, of course, fairly clear.
1t is simply that nobody today can

peace come soon. one set Of prob

there be what Max Werner foresees
as seven years war" the world

In consequence, most of these plan
ners' volumes have to be viewed as
mere schemes, for the present at
least. There is some satisfaction,
therefore, in turning from such Wis
ualizations to work which specific
ally sets out to describe the present
ruins rather than the hopeful struc-
ture which some day may be set up
on them. Frank Munk, a Czechoslo-

Europe, Egypt, Russia-Napo-
Icons armies set upon each in turn,
and, in turn, each has felt the i'm
pact of Hitler's armies. Will he,
like Napoleon, turn also toward
Spain, the gateway of the west?
Spain's affairs assume new impor-
tance because of the changing stra-
tegic situation in the Mediter-
ranean.
Many have made the effort to
search out the spirit of the land and
the people. OF these Havelock Ellis
in The Soul of Spain" has been
most successful, especially in his
analysis of Spanish character. For
the general reader, Spain, a Short
History of It's Politics, Literature
and Art From the Earlist Times to
the Present" by Henry Dwight Sedg-
wick is delightful reading. A more
scholarly contribution, Charles E.
Chapman's History of SPAIN" is a
selection from the four volumes of
Rafael Altamira's Historic de
Espana," The English authority, E.
Allison Peers, has edited a notable
collection of papers of British schol-
ars, Spain; Companion to Span
ish Studies" 1t begins: ITO the
rest of Europe, the Spaniard has
been man apart, one whose out
look on life refuses to conform to
the accepted criteria of logical be-
haviour, whose scale of values seems
curiously remote from a modern
age .. Spain was plural to the
Romans, and its multiple aspects
still submit i'll to formulae."
An objective judgment on con-
temporary events is hard to achieve,
and an adequate account of the is
sues at stake in the Spanish civil
war has not yet been written. The
liberal Catholic author, Alfred Men
dizabal Villalba, wrote his Mar
tyrdom of Spain; Origins of a Civil
War" as book of backgrounds, with
emphasis on the underlying causes.
E. Allison Peers takes up the re-
public's brief and stormy existence
in THE Spanish Tragedy, $780,
1885," an explicit account which
does not devote space to the funda-
mental reasons for the disunity
which led to SPANS terrible blood

the planners of world future might
well consider
Much of his material has, to be
sure. been set down before. We have
read of the Nazi system of looting
occupied territories by all means,
from simple housebreaking to elab-
crate financial juggling. What we
have not had impressed upon is that
this looting procedure has utterly
wrecked all the familiar economic
forms on the European continent
and that what remains is a mere
frail shell of an economic system.
The actual working power is Moth
ing whatsoever, says Mr.. Munk, but
the determination of the Nazi elite
to hold control of all wealth and
sources of wealth. When that is
removed there will be wholesale COL
lapse. No matter what forms have
been retained as screens for Nazi
plundering, there is no other vital
force working in Europes economy.
Nothing can hold the structure to-
