ing the "off again, on again" rela-

and interesting. 1t tells how Mr.
Baruch's urgent pleas from 1888 on
for industrial mobilization plans,
stock-piling of strategic materials
and other steps to make the country
ready for the war he saw coming
went largely UNDECIDED Many of the
New Deal boys" thought Mr.. Ba-
ruch was stubborn" and reaction
ary," so many of the lessons he had
learned from his last World War

price fixing. for example, were not
applied until after initial mistakes
were made.
Mr.. Field quotes a friend of Mr..
Baruch as saying: They never want
to take his advice until the trouble
has become serious-they wait until
it is too late and then do what he
advised the year before"
But there were no public "gripes"
from Mr.. Baruch, and today his ad-
vice on such things as reconversion
of industry after the war is getting
better hearing.

leave in country villages and trips
to London, you are with the man
about whom the story revolves.
Contrary to popular opinion, not
all air missions are exciting. There
is plenty of boredom in flying just
as there is in some ground forces
missions. 1t is the freaks you read
about, and in "Air Gunner" you are
introduced to some that haven't
been told before, such as the gunner
who warded off a Focke Wulf 100
attack by throwing jackets, helmets,
expended cartridges and candy
bar at the enemy plane when all
the bomber's guns had been jetti-
soned to tighten the ship. Then
there is chapter on combat which
rounds up the best in the exciting
incidents that have taken place in
the skies over Europe.
You have the feeling that every
thing set forth in this excellent
work is honest, that it represents a
good cross section of slices out of
many missions and more nights and
days-all spent with air gunners.

UClOlC.
The book is series of critical
essays devoted in turn to The Am
bassadors," The Wings of the
Dove" The Golden Bowl THE
American Scene" and The Ivory
Tower" 1t also contains chapters
on James methods of work. 1t is
not biography. There is almost no
biography in it.
1t is instead very sweet literary
criticism indeed, the leisurely kind
of criticism which reviewers can
only dream about, critics criticism.
But not to dwell on that, Profess
sor Matthiessen's theme is that
James, in his later years, was oc-
cupied with two creative ideas-a
realization of emotion as added to
his earlier preoccupation with the
intellect, and a hatred of mate
rialism as opposed to the values
which are included in his phrase
the art of consciousness. He
traces the course of these ideas
through the works mentioned, from
the first jottings in the novelists
notebook to the finished product
The most nearly perfect achieve
ment he finds to be The Wings of
the Dove" He holds that James
failed to incorporate genuine emo
ton into his other work, though he
paid it lip service. But THE Wings
of the Dove" he believes to be a
study in pity seldom surpassed.
AS interesting as his estimates of
the novels is his delicate portrait
of James himself, a thing done in
a few lines and shadows, but vivid
and authentic. NC. r.

Winged Peace

But it is all one war" writes
William A. Bishop, air marshal of

not end until one of two things hap
pens-either man will destroy the
civilization he has worked through
the centuries to create (the culmi-
mating force Of which is global avia-

forces to create a greater and finer
civilization"
Billy Bishop was one of the most
oashing airman of the First World

parentheSis in the foregoing quota
tation will indicate, he is madly in
love with aviation-their is nothing
1t cannot accomplish, he believes
and he very outspokenly believes,

case in book he calls Winged

sis into Sentence-it is that we
have got into our current mess by
failing to understand the combined
potentialities of geopolitics and air
power, and that we had jolly well
better start understanding right now.
Or else
Many a reader will be with him
100 per cent up to that point. But
Bishop is far more daring than this.
All planes now in the air are obso-
lete, he says. New York to London
in three hours is easy-which many
a less anxious man will counter with
80 WHAT" Tomorrow's planes will
do everything except blow their own
noses And peace can be, indeed
must be, kept by air forces. 1t is
this idea that required most of
Bishops daring, since his book ap-
pears after what many a military
man has called the partial failure of
the plane in this war. Bishop has no
new explanation for the fact that
Germany failed to reduce Britain
by air power, nor for the corollary
fact that the Allies have failed to
reduce Germany by the blitz a
hundred times more powerful.
His idea that the worlds airways
must be Uncontrolled will seem
sound to many, and would seem even
more sound with a carefully devised
and workable plan for bringing 1t
about.

Review by GARRETT D. HORNER
Most of the really exciting stories
of Bernard Baruch's activities as
head of the War Industries Board
in the first World War never will
be told by Mr.. Baruch, Mr.. Field
writes in this sympathetic biography
of the man who has been an i'm
portant adviser to our last five
Presidents.
Mr.. Baruch has published a record
of board activities, which is de-
scribed by Mr.. Field as AL sweet
ness and light, in the best Baruch
manner" with the excitement care
fully omitted" To tell what really
happened in some matters would be
to criticize others, and that would
be out of character" for Mr.. Baruch.
This trait of keeping condolences
is one reason why Mr.. Baruch has
been a valued adviser of five Presi-
dents, and also 1t has tended to
make him one of the east-known
important men in American life.
The biography by Mr.. Field, who
as Washington journalist for the
last 80 years has watched with
friendly interest the career of the
park bench stateman," fills in many
of the gaps in the public record.

The hoped-for factory did not come

bitter enemies.
The authors idea for the novel
Is better than it's execution. She
could have left out many of the
speeches without harming the idea
at all, and some of the exposition
is labored. The reaction of a small
town, influenced by the Chicago
Transcript, to the declaration of a
national emergency and later to
the war is interesting.

A scholarly and charming book
this life of William of Orange
though it is a history of war and
troubled times, reminds one most
of the arts of peace. For its COM
position has the quality Of leisure
and dignity and 1t has evidently
been done with quiet passion for
the fine tradition of historical writ
ing. Such work Is rare in these
times and the rarity is no credit
to our period
The achievement of the book is
to keep clarity ever before the
reader. The maze of Williams
time, the maze involving politics
religion and dy"asties, Miss Wedge
wood holds il. a comprehensive
state. And she presents a rounded
portrait Of her subject, making Will
liam not all leader and political
thinker, but showing him as hus-
band, friend and private man as
we'll. And this she does without
any vulgar "popularizing." Rather
she keeps her material in the per-
