wives and nutritionists will find this
book an eye-opener-for it is full
of well-grounded optimism for our
future American diet. The authors,
both outstanding in their respective
fields of journalism and nutrition,
maintain that we are being forced
into IAN economy of abundance"
and will, perforce eat well.
With the findings OF selective
service boards throughout the war,
regarding the widespread malnutri-
ton noted among the men called up
for induction, this compilation OF
hopes for the future should bring
encouragement as well as interest.
. Stuart Chase in his foreword
points out that to embrace the sub
iect of nutrition fully. food must be
discussed on two utilitarian levels
the quantity level. measured IN units
of energy, calories, first, and second
the quality level. measured in the
units of a balanced diet, proteins,
vitamins, carbohydrates, and so on.
These two levels have been the basis
of their book, written in terms the
average person can readily under
stand.

FREEDOM AND ORDER

FRANCIS P. DOUGLAS.
DR.. Heimann's thesis in Free
dom and Order" Is that the one is
impossible without the other, and
the problem is to harmonic them
with the least tensions.
This is not new, of course. but
the author relates it concretely to
the troubles the world has been go
ing through. Lessons From the
War" is the books subtitle. DR.
Hermann goes back to the crisis OF
the democracies due to their empha-
sis on liberty rather than on order
This, he holds, was the underlying
cause Oh the war.
Jefferson trusted to mans reason
to establish harmony between tree
dom and order. But, DR.. Hermann
points out, rational man accepted
freedom as the freedom to exploit
and the unregulated freedom OF the
strong resulted.
Justice Is Needed.
Because of the failure OF rational
ism to achieve the necessary balance
another force must be added-Jus-
tice. In a chapter which brings to
mind not only. the reforms OF the
Roosevelt era but the current dis
cussions of labor legislation, Or
Hermann says the freedom of the
weak must be secured against the
superior freedom of the strong, the
freedom of the group must be SAFE
guarded. and the freedom OF the
individual must be insured against
that of the group.
There is no spiritual direction IN
either freedom or order. DR.. Hell
mann reaches the unacceptable con-
ch,sion that to balance freedom ano
to give it direction, order must be
spiritual; it must be religious.
Simplifying the Task.
This searching statement of the
nrobleas of making democracy WORK
is valuable. to Americans concerned
with their own democracy. Inc
reader also comes to the conclusion
that if this book were widely read IN
Germany, Italy, japan and other
countries where we hope democracy
will take root and be fruitful, ou1
task in the world of today would be
easier.
DR. Heimann, who came to this
country in 1888 from the University
of Hamburg, is dean of the graduate
school of the new School for Social
Research in New York.
Mr.. Hale's book, which he calls
"A Laymans History of the Amer
lean People" is an easily readable
account generally from the economic
viewpoint. The author is concerned
with the clashes between the people
as a whole and those whose superior
economic strength leads them tc
claim larger share of freedom.
He says you can not escape con-
trolls torder is the word of DR.. Hell
mann. According to Mr.. Hale
however, we can see to it that the
controls bear equally on all and dc
not serve the interests of any par
ticular group.
Our history has alternated be-
tween belief in man and attempts
to take advantage of him. But, Mr.
Hale says, while the controls mus
be there we also have freedom ane
our ultimate strength is in oul
capacity to advance and dignity thu
individual everywhere.

May %, Literary Guild and Random

copies of the book in print. most of
which had already been sold to
public always curious about what
Lewis will say next.
Harnett Kane has been up from

for ANYTHING he could find about
Mrs. Varina Howell Davis, wife of
jefferson Davis. He was delighted
to find not only her love letters
but much of her private correspond

was to let the men in hospitals know

while they were in the war.

These Were
The Children

THE OTHER CHILDREN
BY Adeline Rumsey. fSimon &
Schuster; s275.)
Reviewed by
STANLEY BATE.

Some years ago a schoolhouse blew
up, killing most of the children and
teachers inside. From the newspaper
reports of this shocking tragedy. the
author got her idea for this story.
1t was a good idea, to probe behind
the cold, factual newspaper reports
and delve into the human side of
the catastrophe. How were homes
and lives actually affected? What
did it mean to the community In
human terms?
Among those who escaped the
blast Gin the fictional tale) were
Clarry, lanky, quiet. 17-year-old
who had played hockey and gone
hunting with his brothers girl, Mar
jorie The brother. Dana, was killed.
There was Buzz Malloy, thwarted,
vindictive boy. bent on making a
good thing out of the fact that his
father, the school janitor, was killed
in the explosion. There were little
Anita, a precocious 10-year-old, and
her little sister, Karen, who had
picked that fateful day to run away
from home.
There's a Message.
Judith Webster, wife of the school
principal. lost her husband and her
cherished stepdaughter. Neverthe-
less, she manages to suppress her
own sorrow to the extent that she
succors the less emotionally stable
members of the bereaved commu-
nifty. Somehow, she manages to be
on hand to save Marjorie when the
latter tries to kill herself because
she is going to have baby, and she
is on hand to prevent Garry from
numbering the treacherous Buzz.
While there should be meat for
humanists and sociologists in such a
situation, this book is not a partic-
ularly prepossessing effort in either
department. The story lags after
the early impetus of the holocaust.
Latterly, however, it picks up speed
and moves rather suspensefully to
the end. The author does have mes
sage-about the sometimes hyper
critical morality OF society-but it is
not conveyed with sufficient impact.
