From the fall of Rome, Kessel-
ring had double problem on his
hands. First, to rescue the 14th
Army along the west coast near
Rome, and secondly to pull the
10th Army away from its extend
ed positions along the Sangro
River far to the southeast.
These 10th Army troops had to
make their way back through the
Apprentices northwestward in an
effort to join the general retreat
up the center of the peninsula.
They had a few good roads along
which to move, routes which were
hemmed in by high mountains.
They faced possible blockade by

along Highway S from Rome.

Countries, France and Poland have
been conscripted and sent to Ger
many as slave labor. Hundreds of
thousands more have been driven
from their farms to make way for
Germans. The fate of thousands of
Jews in Poland and Western Russia
cannot even be guessed. Those who
were not killed were driven out into
the wilderness like cattle.
That Is the problem now facing

and Orvieto which Is 60 miles
northwest of the capital. In both
places two highways from the
south are forced together by
mountains. before continuing
northwest. Another possible trap
is farther north around Lake
Trasimeno. From there on there
are but two highways out Of the
central Italian badlands.
The Florence line, once the
Germans reach it, could provide
good opportunity to hold some
time. It's the narrowest spot
above the calf of the italian leg
for one thing, and is backed by
the mighty Apprentices almost all
the way across the peninsula. For
another, Florence, like Rome, Is
the center of q web of highways
and railways converging upon 1t,
especially from the north.
Whether Kesselring will make
a stand there is a matter Of Ger
man strategy. His problem is to
get there.

Thus, should the advocates of

Ancient India in one of its most
fascinating aspects was brought to
Washington this month, when an
exhibition of mural paintings from
the caves of India, by Sarkis Katch-
adourian. opened at the National
Museum. They can be seen in the
foyer of the Natural History Build
ing until June 28.
These paintings are replicas, even
to the exact dimensions, of the
original frescoes which decorate
caves in 10 localities in India and
Ceylon. many of them remote from
civilized centers. The originals date
from the 5th, 9Th, 7th and 18th CEN
turtles. Few of us can hope to see
them. But Mr.. Katchadourian's re-
constructions far transcend copies,
and we "can study them with con-
fidence," according to the testimony
of such authorities as DR.. A. K
Coomaraswamy OF the Museum OF
Fine Arts, Boston, and DR.. B. Row.
land of Harvard University's Fogg
Museum. The former declares these
are the best copies that have been
made, not only because "the work
is mechanically faithful" but be-
cause "the artist has also penetrated
and recreated the spirit of the orig
inals" Mr.. Katchadourian actually
discovered few of the murals, and
was the first to transcribe 10 or IL
of them.
Such is the vitality of these
replicas that we instinctively feel
we are looking at original paint
ings. Themes are religious. the
great majority being Buddhist while
a few are Brahmanical or Jaina.
But to the majority of Occidentals
who visit these paintings they seem
secular.
They illustrate stories including
those Of the Buddha's former incar-
nations, and hence comprehend
many aspects of worldly life. One
does not have to be acquainted with
Indian religions to enjoy the grace

A limitation of office tenure Mr.
Arnold contended, would have the
effect of limiting nepotism in WASH

despite the unfavorable publicity
which has always attended the prac-
tice," Mr.. Arnold said, "nepotism
fiourishes in official Washington,
particularly on Capitol Hill. To
limit the tenure of office of public
servants would force healthful pur-

assortment of relatives on the public
payroll. II such political ct ceteras

could expect no more than six years
at the most as beneflciaries OF the
United States Treasury. it is certain
that there would be much less en-
thusiasm displayed by them for the
plums of patronage which are the
present just due of every Congress
man."
Referring to the crisis through
which the Nation is passing, Mr.
Arnold continued: mo one will at
tempt to minimize the terrible
urgency of the tasks facing the Con-
gress today. AS the physical strife
of battle ceases, the moral and
spiritual strife of the search for a
just peace will begin.

That the United States is pre-

the details of which have been
worked out in many months of re-

in the State Department, seemed
clear to the Senators who sat
around Hull's table.
Hull, it appears from the guarded

for written commitment by the

that they would sign no blank

The meetings closed On a cordial
note, with the understanding that
Hull might again call the same

in furtherance of his effort to win
bipartisan support for his ideas, Hull

and three Republican leaders of the

the reaction to the Hull conferences
has been friendly. An important
step, it is widely felt, has been taken
toward the goal of nonpartisan
consideration of the peace settle
ment. Qualification is being ex-
pressed that the administration, in
the development of foreign policy
calling for external cooperation
has started by inviting internal CO.
operation. "Unilateralism," in this
view, Is as much to be avoided at
