Her drawings Of street scenes, old

proaches this romantic section OF

Calfee's Paintings Tend
Away From Naturalism
william Calfee, in his latest one
man show at the Whyte Gallery
through this month, continues his
esthetic progress to the left. Those
who have followed his career since
the later 3os will remember that
while his paintings Of that time
were not academic they were usually
in the tradition OF naturalism. In
the past few years, however. he has
been experimenting in various di-
rections. so that each Of his annual
exhibitions contains few enigmas.
There are ideas behind Mr..
Calfee's paintings-humorous, tragic,
fantastic or satirical ideas, reveal
ing lively imagination. In some
OF these works te.g, THE Lovers'D
he understates his themes so relent-
lessly that they appear to be In
complete. There Is a familiar old
saying that every artist should have
an assistant to hit him over the
head, when he has finished work,
to prevent his adding superfiuous
touches. One wishes the reverse for
Mr.. Calfee, that he had some one
who might persuade him to carry
certain paintings a little further.
In one titled March II and May
g." composed of unrelated figures
apparently embodying the tragic
memories Of little girl, Mr.. Calfee
presumably interprets personal his
tory.
Interest in Animals
His interest in animals remains
strong. In "Cats Dream" he has
endeavored to get inside an animals
mind-that of q real animal, not
an animated cartoon kind. He is
apparently convinced that cats are
ornithologists at heart. In several
paintings Of monkeys he has ex-
tracted the essence of the animals.
The exhibition also includes
number of framed and portfolio
OF unframed tempera and wash
drawings Of animals and birds,
which he knows well. But his in
tetpretations have changed consid-
erably In recent years, taking on
sinister quality, His models used
to be placid creatures, such as are
seen at the Zoo, but his recent
transcriptions depict subjects COM
pletely wild.
A few pieces Of sculpture on view
include two portrait busts, one a
good capture of John Gernand.

Gallery's staff, and an imaginative
work Of unhappy import, involving
two separate rough hewn figures,
entitled Memory of Past Bliss"

partment Of American University.

Although the forest fire that des- troyed a half-mile stretch of tim Ter along the east shore of Mitch ell Bay early this week has been under control since Tuesday, diff culties presented by the fires hay ing gone underground are delay ing the final mopping up, it was disclosed here today by Admiralty Division Forest Supervisor John Brilliant
 Late Wednesday, an additional man and more supplies were flown to the fire-fighting Forest Service crew at Mitchell Bay under Fore
 man William Fromholz. It is ex- pected that the last of the smould-
 ering tree roots will be extinguish-
 cd by tonight.
 ! Supervisor Brilliant added that i as soon as the Mitchell Bay blaze | is finally out, Fromholz and his crew will te flown to Turner Lake, where two weeks will be devoted to repairing the boats and rebuilding
 the boatshed, which was crushed by last winters heavy snows. Brill hart declared that the Turner Lake boats are in very poor condition, due chiefly to the publics not re- placing them in the boatshed when through using them. The boats
 have been left out to chafe on the rocks until the bottoms are gone
 After completing the Turner Lake chores, the Forest Service trail crew will move to the Taku River area, to maintain the trail and emergency landing field there Eight bridges along the trail are in need of replacing. One of of them is now a hidden bridge. due to hay ing been covered over by beaver dam, Brilliant reported.

 STRIKE CAUSE

CHICAGO, July 5.-W M. Dolan, deputy president of the Brother- hood of Railroad Trainmsn, said today that the decision to call a strike of the membership of the Illinois Central Railroad was the result of a breakdown of collective bargaining on the handling and disposition of grievances.
 The strike, he said, was called to become effective at 10 p. m. on July 21 with the approval of the office of President A. F. Whitney in Cleveland.
 The deputy president said that he had Eeen trying for two years to compose the grievances, which extend back over a period of years some as long ago as 1937n
 The grievances, Dolan asserted total more than 700 cases and in volve time payment claims, dis missals and workmen held out of service.

Administrator Paul Porter called lon Congress today to revise the OPA calender bill still further to bring it into line with President Trumans recommendations.
 The bill as amended by the Senate banking committee over the protests of Senator Taft (R-Ohio) Porter said, does not go far enough. He said it contains undesirable features"
 As the Senate headed toward debate on the substitute for the CPA bill. MT Truman has vetoed, Porter issued this statement.
 My comments yesterday after neon upon leaving the Senate banking and currency committee applied only to the Barkley amend ment as a substitute for the Taft and Wherry amendments to the price control till
 Tt dld net represent a blanket approval of the bill as a whole as reported out by the cofnmltte9.
 T still hope that Congress will pass a bill that will conform to the Presidents recommendations in his veto message, and that other un- desirable features will be eliminat- cd"
 Objectionable Features
 While Porter did not elaborate on provisions of the bill he regards as objectionable, it was understood that these include:
 CD Amendments which outlaw a requirement. that manufacturers produce low-cost clothing, (2) A provision for special pricing of cot ton and woolen textiles, (3) An amendment restoring the pre-war profit margins of automobile dealers

Must We Beg The Peace?

The United States furnished arms, am
munition, money and the strongest fight
ing forces on the land, seas and air, to win
the World War. Among the nations saved
from defeat was Soviet Russia. That coun-
try was admitted to membership in the
United Nations; that nation has not con-
formed to the program of other United
Nations and it has been a disturbing
rebel" ever since Germany and it's SYM
pathizers were laid low.
The Communist government is chip
off old Czarist Russia, and true to tradi-
ton it is trying to steal territories and
power away from weaker nations.
Evidently Secretary of State James F.
Byrnes is the outstanding man in the Four
Power Conference of Foreign Ministers,
and he seems never to tire in his efforts
to bring the Soviet leaders in line. Byrnes
is firm in demanding and enforcing al
legiance to the United Nations. If Russia
upsets the applicant the Communists will
have proved their unfitness and their
failure to understand twentieth century
civilization.
Why can't the United Nations 60 alonI
without Russia? The United States can
not buy the peace, sacrifice all the prin-
ciples and policies that have been SUBJ
scribed to by nearly SO nations.
There are a lot of patriotic people who
have concluded that Stain and Molotov
should be given a series of swift kicks in
the pants. After that, the United Nations
would go ahead in their efforts to COM
plete plans to insure the World against
future wars

UPIn Smoke

France has her eternal flame which
tourists may visit, but that is nothing COM
pared to Americas perpetual bonfire that
roars along to the tune of half billion
dollars worth Of property annually.
In April alone the American bonfire
consumed $52,00O000 worth of homes,
farms, hotels, restaurants, dance halls, and
heaven alone knows what else. 1t is get
ting hotter all the time Currently it is
burning at a rate that has never been
equalled since the National Board of Fire
Underwriters began compiling losses six
teen years ago.
One of the most effective ways to ease
the housing shortage would be to use a
little more care where fire is concerned
There are very few unavoidable fires. Gig
arettes and matches are the great Destroy
ers. Greater caution in the use of these
two items alone would work miracles.
Next to preventing destruction, the
most important consideration is the rising
cost of the fuel that keeps the American
bonfire blazing. Property values are ris-
ing rapidly = so rapidly that contractors
hesitate to commit themselves on building
costs. This means that fire insurance pol
icies can become outdated

those who sacrificed all but life itself, are
the benefactors of law which provides
them with $40 per month-68 cents per
day. Public law IA provides the disabled
veteran with less money than international
Law provides for German and Japanese
prisoners of war;
The 81 cents day received by the vet
Grams is little more than cigarette money
and fails to provide them with enough to
obtain the few pleasures of life they are
still capable Of enjoying. They are not
only victim of war but of a fragrant case
of neglect and false economy on the part
of those responsible for their well-being
and care
To rectify this disgraceful condition,
The American Legion has called upon
Congress for immediate passage of it's
sponsored bill, H. R. 535, which would
provide that a veterans compensation,
pension or retirement pay shall not be re-
duced during his disqualification or dono-
cilary care The Legion bill seeks to pro-
vide the veteran that to which he is en-
titled and attempts to remove the stigma
of discrimination.
Thousands of disabled American vet
Grams are only receiving the disgraceful
payment of $40 per month; yet these are
the men who sacrificed the most. They
are the blind, the amputees and the par
alyzed. These are the men who carried
the flag Of the forty-eight States through
four and half years of war to return dis
abled and to receive for their reward
'sixty-eight pieces of copper-less than
penny and half per day for each State
they protected.
