AQuiet Little
EIegy on Life's
Lost Beginning
THE INNOCENTS OF PARIS

By Gilbert Cesbron. Trans
lated from the French by Mar
guerite Waldman. (Houghton-
Mi67in; s2.50J
The author of this novel is a
Frenchman young enough to have
been in the war. He did his turn in
the Maginot Line and was among
those evacuated from Dunkirk. He
had the first part of the manuscript
of this book with him on that his
toric occasion and, because the boat
in which he made his escape was
characteristically overloaded, he was
required to throw his luggage over
board. He did so, not salvaging the
script, which, after all, could not
have weighed much or taken up
much room.
In 1910 he was demobilized and
went to Switzerland where he re-
wrote and finished the novel so
harshly blighted in its youth. 1t
received Swiss novel prize. Since
then it has been translated in Eng
land and Sweden and is to be made
into moving picture.
1t seems to be escapist writing in
about its purest form. Considering
what Gilbert Cesbron must have
had on his mind as a Frenchman
and soldier, during the war years
there seems to be no other explana-
ton for It,
1t is story about six boys OF
Paris VINO constitute a band and
spend their time out of school to-
gether. Like all boy bands, they
have house; it is an unoccupied
cottage in meager suburb, some
thing close to an American shanty-
town. There they plot expeditions
and the book is an account of their
successive sallies as knights and
conauistadores into the adult world.
The year is 1923.
They descend upon the Pare
Monceau and utterly diSorganize the
placid routine followed there by
certain rich children and their
nurses. They find a forgotten sub
way, follow its tracks and come
upon what was the private train for
royal visitors at the Paris Exposi-
ton of 1900 They invade st. Suplice
to 'fliberate the Holy Ghost "a
pigeon which has gotten caught in a
high window. In short, they engage
IN the high-hearted and romantic
endeavors Of childhood as childhood
is idealized by adult memories.
Mr.. Cesbron does all this very well
indeed. He offers no pretense that
he is engaging in realism. The ad-
ventures of his boys are frequently
impossible from the physical point
of view and, moreover, he never ex-
plains how they are able to spend
such a vast proportion of their time
free from parental investigation
Letting such crude actualities shift
for themselves, he concentrates on
reproducing the atmosphere OF
childhood's goldenness-and he sue
ceeds. To reproduce that atmosphere
is always to come very close to SEN
timentality-and he evades that
peril. His novel is quiet little elegy
on life's lost beginning.

him with their riches in return for
being Mrs. Budd. Because his heart
is pure he inclines to treat these
lovely ones with avuncular kindness
merely. But, finding himself cast
away in Jap-infested China with
one OF them, he yields to the mo-
ment and once more marries. This
young woman, it happens, is spirit
uallstic medium and Lanny's con-
nection with the afterlne is there
fore domesticated and regularized.
The preposterous story is, of
course, merely an excuse for Mr..
Sinclair to utter his views on the
world situation. They can best be
summed up as paean of praise for
the New Deal, President Roosevelt
and ali his appointees, in which and
whom he sees the continuation of
the genuine American tradition. He
views all forms of absolutism with
dislike, whether it be the absolutism
OF the Catholic Church or that of
the Communist party. His geniality
tolerance and good will are appar-
ent throughout the whole length of
his novel and give it a certain
charm, in spite of its wild and gar
ish impossibility.

oolftAHts 'AsS'sS'SS' -
A reader of moderate experience
will know what this book is all about
by the time he is we'll into the first
chapter. But one with the grim
experience which appertains to the
working reviewer will have the plot
well in hand before he gets to the
bottom of page l of the pro-
logue. 1t is first novel, 1t Is writ
ten with great earnestness and no
humor whatsoever.
The author spent a number OF
years as a seaman on merchant
ships. In 194l he was on freighter
which was torpedoed. Now, OF all
the many heroic facets of the war
none is more heroic than that which
is turned by the exploits of the
merchantmen. 1t IS perfectly un-
derstandable that a man who went
through some of that greatness
should want to write about 1t. But
Robert Higginbotham unfortunately
does not have the skill to carry off
his undertaking.

NINA PEMBERTON.
Early in 1943 there was a great
deal of speculation and uncertainty
lin Washington headquarters as to
whether the people of japanese
occupied Thailand had in any way
organized an underground move
ment, whether they would be re-
ceptive to the creation of one and
last, but not least, whether it would
be humanity possible to infiltrate
Allied personnel and agents into this
country.
AFTER much thought had been
given to the matter and people such
as Semi Pramoj, Siamese Minister
to the United States, had expressed
confidence in patriot rising within
: his occupied country, the Office of
Strategic Services satisfied itself
that this task could be undertaken,
and in March, 1943, a party which
included Is Thai patriots set sail
from Baltimore in the Liberty ship
Abraham Clark. These That's were
recruited from universities around
the country. They had all under
gone rigid tests in radio and demoli-
ton work. Each held officer rank.
Nlcol Smith was a member of this
expedition while Blake Clark, the
co-author of this book, was in the
reports section of OSS headquarters
in Washington.

underground movement did exist in

The giant young republic going
to war in France in 1917 and try
ing to lead the world in making
peace in 1919 provide the pageantry
and drama for this thick volume
by Mr.. Daniels. The chief figure,
of course, is Woodrow Wilson, and
to him Mr.. Daniels pays his warm
est tributes as an intimate friend.
the former Secretary of the Navy
also tells proudly of the achieve
ments of the service he headed dur
ing the World War. He gives pic
lures, frequently revealing, of the
leaders who crowded the scene in
our own country and in the coun-
tries of our Allies. No matter how
great they were, their roles were
minor ones when compared to that
of President Wilson, whose League
Of Nations is finally assuming shape
in the United Nations.

Red Cross Appeals
For Volunteer Nurses

A serious outbreak of poliomye-
litis in the Los Angeles area has
resulted in an appeal to the local
Red Cross chapter to Immediately
recruit nurses for temporary duty
at the Los Angeles hospital.
w. c. Sommers, chairman Ben
ton County chapter, was advised
of the need for nurses today by
the Red Cross Pacific Area Office.
Eighty new cases of the disease
were reported in the Los Angeles
area for the week ending August
10. .-.. IS -.
The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis and the Ameri-
can Red Cross have working
agreement whereby the Red Cross
recruits nurses and the Founda-
ton pays their transportation to
points where they are needed and
their salaries with maintenance
while they are on assignment.
Nurses interested in responding
to this appeal are urged to call the
Chapter House, telephone Rich
land 81 between the hours 9 am.
and pm. daylight saving time,
Mondays through Saturdays.
