Old Leotherfoce of the

Of Gen. ChennouIt
By Keith Ayling. (Bobbs- Mer-

By Keith Ayltng. (BobbS- Mer-
riU;: $780,
AS far as I know this is the first
biography of the flyer who won
just renown in China and who an
nounced his retirement from the
United States Army yesterday. The
distinguished subject makes it, con-
Sequently, an important book de-
spite the undistinguished writing,
in grammar school style that even
boys and girls might find dull.
Chennault'S extraordinary achieve
ments are worth recording. AS
chief of the Flying Tigers, he with
his 100 planes gave the Chinese
invaluable support at critical time.
AS commander of the 14th Army
Air Force, he filled a historic role
in helping to wind up the war
against Japan.
Born in Texas in 1890, reared in
Louisiana, Claire Lee Chennault
spent his boyhood with a minimum
of schooling and maximum of
roughing it. He went to Louisiana
State University, played on sports
teams, qualified for ROTC. He
enrolled in normal school and came
out a teacher. Later he was physi-
cal culture instructor in various
YMCAs. He did factory work, and
at 81, joined the Army in World
War I and with the exception of
two brief periods, followed a mill
tary career from then on.
Somewhat like Gen. Mitchell,
Chennault is another reminder
that we have matchless air
force not because we have brains,
but because we are shot through
with luck. Though Ayling makes
no special point of it, he lists
half dozen occasions when,
If Chennault had been sensible
instead of fanatical, he would have
quit flying.
When he applied for Air Corps
duty. he was told he did mot pos
sesS the necessary qualifications to
be successful aviator" At the
end of World War l he was dis
charged, though he wanted TO stay
in service. He got back in even
tually, worked out plans for fight
to Hawaii. but had to wait a year
before they were carried out.
He doped out fighter formations
of threes, only to have a general
ask: What real use can it be put
to?"
The Army. which might have
been expected to want to hold him,
offered him retirement. He &C
cepted, went to China. There the
brass hats caught up with him
again. w. G. r.

Confronting the Land
Question

By Jackson H. RnlSton. (Amer-
lean Association for Scientific
TGTGtionJ
Reviewed by JOSEPH H. BAIRD.
For more than half a century Mr..
Ralston, at one time a well-known
Washington attorney, but now a
resident of California, has devoted
much of his time to promoting the
practical application of the single
tax" theories of the late Henry
George.
A generation ago, as Mr.. Ralston
points out, the theories of land re-
form advocated by George in
Progress and Poverty" were the
subject of wide and spirited debate
both here and in Great Britain. But
in late years they have dimmed in
public interest. The present vol
ume is an attempt to weigh the
reasons why the single tax" has
not been generally accepted and to
plot future course for those who
still hold to the doctrine.
The essence of Henry Georges
theory, distilled to its simplest
terms, was that the earth was the
property of all mankind and that
no individual had the social right
to benefit from pyramiding land
values resulting from the labors of
the community. He advocated the
abolition of all taxes save those on
unimproved land, which. he be-
lieved, would prevent speculation
and the accumulation of large. idle
estates.
Looking toward the future, Mr.
Ralston advocates some modiflca-
tions in the original George theo-
ries. He believes that much statisti-
cal spadework should be done to
provide a factual basis for convinc-
ing the public of the advantages of
the single tax" He also advocates a
reformed initiative and referendum
device to promote home rule on tax
alton in cities, counties and States
Washington will find OF interest
Mr.. Ralston's account of the eff
forts of the single takers" to apply
their theories in Capitol Heights
and Maryland generally around
1915. OF interest, too, is his con-
clusion that in Washington, high
and level land was too expensive
and inhabitants were driven to land
which was redeemed at public ex-
pense from its swampy condition"
Mr.. Ralston's book sheds inter
esting light on the practical efforts
which have been made in the
United States to put into practice
Henry Georges theories - efforts
which are not we'll known to the
contemporary reading public.

Since realism" is a word lately

of Edgar Shows as presenting a

recent idealism in Europe and Asia

Totalitarian regimes will be set
up in all the countries occupied by
Russia, says Mr.. Snow. 1t will be,
in his opinion, benevolent totai-
tarianism, lacking in free elections,
press and speech, but equipped with
economic reforms which will consist
mainly in the breaking up of large
estates for distribution among the
peasantry.

ToIstoy and His Wife

By Tikhon Polner. Translated
from the Russian by Nicholas
Wreden. Morton; $2.75.J
With the receat great interest in
War and Peace" making the Amer
lean people more Tolstoy- conscious
than they have been for 80 years
past, it is appropriate that this
human" study of the great Rus
sian should make its appearance
on our book stalls. The book was
originally published in France in
the late '20s. The author was a
friend of Tolstoy's and knew the
novelist in terms of his family life.
His position is that TolStoy's rela-
lions to his wife and family were
a strong influence on the novelist's
work and he undertakes to chart
the course of those relations &C
cordingly. In spite of his personal
acquaintance, however, he does not
draw on memories but confines his
sources to identifiable documents
letters, diaries and relevant literary
works.
He draws picture of the bach
elor Tolstoy which is designed to
make plain the great energy of his
genius and his need of faith to
serve. With so vigorous and foot
loose a force within him he was shy
of matrimony and entries in his
diary at the time of his courtship
are close to comic reading today
for the conflict they reveal between
shall-I and shall-I-not. In his con-
fusion the young man involved him
self with two sisters before he
finally got to the point of openly
proposing, and the reader IMMERSED
in literary history will be diverted
to learn that some of the most
improbably emotional scenes of sub
sequent Tolstoyan novels were acted
out at this time in dreadful earnest
by the novelist himself.
The marriage begun with such
doubts and megrims was, however,
almost idyllically happy for long
time. In family life Tolstoy found
the root which he had so long
needed. Then came his conversion
to primitive Christianity, with its
conviction that ownership of any,
thing whatever was sin, and his
bewildered wife, who had borne
him IL children, was confronted
by mis- determination to impoverish
himself and asked to sympathize.
Her refusal to see her children cut
of, her impotence with his idealism
led him to regard her as an enemy
of his souls well-being. They lived
in a state of bitterness from then
on. with only brief reconciliations
and those based on memories of the
past rather than on present under
standing.
The outline of the story is pretty
well known, but it is told here in
close and human detail which, para
logically, gives it quality close
to fiction

By Mary-Carter Roberts

BY M0fy-C drfer hO6effS
said some time ago that I would
read no more books on what hap
pened to Poland. 1t was not that
was sceptical. 1t was the reverse
of that. I had read books enough
on the subject to be prepared to be-
lieve anything-any horror, that is,
any abomination. Consequently,
reached a state OF mind in which
I said to myself, THE Nazis did it.
Whatever it was, however far be-
You'd imagination in its vileness,
they did it," But I took that blanket
acceptance as an excuse from read
ing details. 1 would believe the I'M
believable, but I did not want to
read about it.
However, got into this volume
bv the man who was head OF the
Methodist church in Poland and his
wife, Gather and HAMA Warfield,
and I went right on. 1t contains
all the horrors, true enough; it in
cludes the murder commandos, the
man hunts, the pogroms, the death
trains, the cremations, the depor-
tations, the torture schools, the slave
labor, all the now familiar impoS-
sibilities. But it makes one aware
of them in a newly significant way.
1t does not report them as lists
of figures indicative of inSanities
which still must be accepted. 1T
shows them to you as they must
have appeared to the sensibilities
of the average Polish citizen.
Mr.. and Mrs. Warfield went on
with their life and work in the
midst of those insanitieS. He was
imprisoned for a short time by the
Russians early in war and later,
after Pearl Harbor, by the Germans,
and both we're questioned by the
Gestapo repeatedly. But in the main
they went on about their lives. They
saw, the tragedies which occurred
not with the correspondents or the
historians eye, but with the eye OF a
uSdI Pal IiC4PdllC' .
To hear, almost daily, of the death
by casual shooting or by torture of
ones friends; to be thrown bodily
off streetcars to give space to Nazis;
to be slapped and pushed on the
streets: to see man hunts in progress
when a blanket order had gone out
for so many hostages; to be in a
day-by-day fear of starvation: toI
risk ones life by buying a piece Of
butter on the black market; to have
Nazis enter ones home and remove
whatever they fancied-Such expert
ences were theirs for over two years.
Their book, in other words, gives us
the Nazi horror in family terms; 1T |
domeSticates the grisly specter as 1t
was domesticated in millions OF
Polish homes. I cannot think of a
more effective way to present it.
DR.. Warf1eld. incidentally, is a
Maryland man. He was born in
Rockville and now is living in Fred
erick. Mrs. Warfield is of Polish
birth but had obtained American
citizenship prior to the outbreak of
the war.

The author of this talented and

number of years in Paris when the

of the Goth century and has for its
