US. PIedgesA Efforts
For Austrian Treaty.
AtLondon Conference
Settlement Notes Failure
Of 4-Power Commission
To Agree on Big Issues
BY the A.seeiated Press

The United States last night
promised every effort" at the
forthcoming Big Four foreign
ministers meeting In London to
try to reach agreement on an
Austrian peace treaty.
The promise was made in a
statement issued here It noted that
the special four-power Austrian
treaty commission, which has been
in session in Vienna since May II
and has held IS meetings, COM
pleted it's work there yesterday with
little progress made toward agree
ment on outstanding issues. The
four powers are the United States,
Russian, Britain and France.
The foremost Of the issues is the
question of German assets in Aus
tria. Roughly. Russia wants to de-
fine German assets in such a broad
way as to allow extensive property
seizures by the Allied powers,
whereas the United States wants a
limited definition which would mar
row Allied property seizures consid-
erably in Austria.
Big Four differences over the Aus
trian treaty were hardened in the
foreign ministers meeting at Mos
cow last spring. Last nights an
nouncement said the differences had
been reaf1irmed in the Vienna ne
gotiations except that the work Of
the treaty commission was able "to
achieve a common approach on
some aspects of the assets problem
and also to define the issues bit
more clearly. These should facili-
tate discussions at the November Is
meeting of foreign ministers in
London.
The United States regrets the
undue delay in reaching agreement
on the outstanding points of differ
ence in the Austrian treaty." the
State Department statement said.
THE United States will make
every effort at the Forthcoming
meeting Of the Council of Foreign
Ministers to resolve those issues
which have become a matter of
international concern"

Art Appreciation
By Betty Miles

Your lack of background in art
may have given you an inferiority
complex, artistically speaking. You
may shun gallery because 1t rep
resents very large square of un-
known territory. Perhaps you only
know what you like" Mr.. John
Walker, Chief Curator at the Ma
tional Gallery of Art, feels that the
person who declares "I know what
I like" has taken the first step
toward experiencing art.
BY knowing what you like, Mr.
Walker added, you know, in a sense
all about art. This does not mean
that your taste won't change, your
capacity to appreciate grow as you
learn more about art. But 1t Is safe
to trust your own likes and dislikes
Art Is something. you enjoy, just
as you enjoy music and literature.
The strength embodied in b gym
phony, the nostalgia u certain book
may recall, remind up that a SYM
phony and book record and inter-
,pret life. A painting Is no different
than these in its meaning for us.
Art is Of course an older form of
expression than music, hence its hall
Of fame is more thoroughly popu-
lated. Among its imfnortals are the
Italians, Raphael and Titan, Rem
brandt, the Dutchman, and Vales-
quez, a Spaniard. The National Gal
lery is devoted to the works of the
masters.
AS to the much contested modern
art, Mr.. Walker commented sanely
that it was quite logical to be in
terested in the art of ones own
Evening star., 1947-03-12

time. Perhaps the work Of Mr.. Pi-
caSso, claimed by some to be a mass
of distortion, or by others to produce
a feeling of revulsion, is no more
unpleasant than the reality we find
reflected in the headlines. A con-
siderable collection of modern art is
housed in tn Phillips Memorial Gal
lery.
If Einstein had lived in the Rem
aissance he might have been a
painter. In that era, great minds
used art as a medium of expression.
Today we are more inclined to doff
our hats to the scientist than to
the artist.
MIR. Walker also endorses lectures
as the most satisfactory introduc-
ton to the art world. There are
daily tours and talks at the gallery.
All Of the lectures are illustrated
with slides. These events are de-
signed to help the public look at
art and to experience it, and also
to provide background material on
the artists and pictures.
There are several art galleries III
town which, according to Mr.. Walk
er, supplement EACH other well. Be-
sides the National Gallery and the
Phillips Gallery, there is the Freer
Gallery which houses Oriental art,
American painting and a compre-
hensive collection of Whistler. The
Corcoran Gallery contains works of
the old masters and contemporary
art. A collection at Dumbarton
Oaks is devoted to Byzantine works
and their sources in late classical
times.

Theater Notes

The second suit that many
women will wish they owned Is
the navy blue, heavy satin that
Miss Claire wears in the last
act. In almost the same style
as the brown suit, the skirt
shows a difference by being
gored. Spring comes into the
picture when Miss Claire adds
white flowers at the waist and
white gloves to her ensemble.
Navy blue and white are hard
to beat for fiattery to women
of all ages. There is also q
'long-sleeved blue lace blouse
with this costume.
In the audience we spotted
few hats. This Is wise. To
wear q bonnet to the theater
and then to have to keep it on
your lap during the perform
ance doesn't make much sense.
But If you do insist on wearing
a hat-make it small. One
wise pretty" wore an evening
helmet of pink felt trimmed
with black jet beading. Also
