Presentation Prints, 1916


The Society of Print Connoisseurs
inaugurated in Alexandria by Alfred
Fowler, completed its first year and
issued its second print in Novem-
Der.
The beautiful etching, Santa
Cruz, Toledo by Sir Lionel Lindsay
is a glimpse of romantic old Spain,
from which, as Mr.. Fowler says,
"the oldtime glory has now so large
ly departed"
Sir Lionel is one of Australia S
outstanding artists, who was
knighted in 1941 for his services to
the art of his country. He first Wis
tied Spain in 1902, when he was %,
returned to it a quarter century
later. Most of his etchings of Spain
are fruits of this second sojourn,
when he had reached his prime.
He considers Toledo. the. quintes-
sence of old Spain, with much Of
Gothic and Moorish origin. Among
its architectural gems is Santa Cruz
the subject of his etchings), the
founding hospital built by Cardinal
Mendoza on site chosen by Queen
Isabella. When Sir Lionel visited La
Cruz, he found it much dilapidated,
but learned that it was to become a
provincial museum. In etching his
plate, he carefully placed the old
peasant wearing a "Talavera" hat,
the muleteer and animals, in order
to have we'll balanced light and
dark areas.
The Woodcut Society, also di-
rected by Mr.. Fowler. completed its
18th year in December, at which
time it's 30th presentation print was
distributed: Clam Diggers, Cape
Cod" by Clare Leighton. 1t is a
handsome wood engraving of men
moving in little dark pools of water,
filling round buckets with clans.
Elliptical shapes of ripples, bucket
rims and bottoms, curving hills and
flying gulls, strengthened by straight
lines of other elements in the print,
make a thoroughly satisfying design
of a picturesque American scene.

Objectives of Workshop
Considerably Expanded

The Washington Workshop enters
the new year greatly encouraged to
carry on its program, because of the
conclusions reached as result of
the panel discussion it held last
month. On December 8, as noted
in The Star, the Workshop had a
symposium on How to Encourage
Washington to Become More Art
Conscious. A distinguished group
spoke on different aspects of the
problem.
Leon Berkowitz, the workshops
program director, mentioned two
objectives recognized as necessary
not only by forum speakers, but by
artists and laymen, in subsequent
conversations: city-wide repre-
sentative body to initiate educa-
tional probjects, to coordinate and
lay the groundwork for larger COM
munity efforts; and development OF
community art center along the
lines proposed by Duncan Phillips.
The Washington Workshop took
the initiative in calling the meet
ing, said Mr.. BerkoWitz, because
during it's two years of existence,
laymen's response to its offerings
convinced it that the community is
ready for more extensive contact
between artists and audience. The
Workshop plans two more syrnpo-
siums, about two months apart,
with discussions by different groups.
Art Even More Necessary Now.
Charles Seymour, assistant chief
curator of the National Gallery OF
Art, was moderator at the December
meeting. He is convinced that the
modern community needs the arts
more today than ever before, in
view of the rve-taxing and con-
fused times in which we are living
He sees the problem as one of find
ing ways in which the visual arts
and the community can be brought
together more intimately.
DR.. Paul Douglas, president OF
American University, spoke as an
educator, concerned with time
vision, environment and the human
soul which joins these in art" He
is convinced washington has every
thing but "the mellowing spiritual
experience which will give to us the
climate of art"
Thomas C. Parker. director, the
American Federation of Arts, con-
siders that the problem of creating
a community art consciousness calls
for a correction of the present un-
equal distribution of cultural advan-
: tages as whole. The housing oi
great collections offers the lay pub
lie only an opportunity for a pas
sive visual participation. What
art needs is not an audience" he
said lit already has that, but more
audience participation"
i Art Is a Shared Experience.
/ Robert F. Gates, president of the
j. Artists Guild, spoke of Washington
J, artists problems, esthetic and prac'
!. tical. He believes that the more
, aware a community becomes thai
h, the artist can contribute something
of value, the more stimulating il
will be for the artist to do gooe
work. "Art must be shared expe.

Phone Strike Ends With Launching
OF PIuns Of A New NofionuI Union

Washington (LPA)-More than
six weeks Of strike by affiliates of
the Natl Federation of Telephone
Workers against the worlds larg-
est corporation, American Tele-
phone & Telegraph, came to an end
last week with wage gains through
out the country ranging up to $12
but averaging around 81.
Even before the final settlements
were signed and the full results of
the fight assayed, the NFTW
launched plans for the final step
creating the Communications
Dorkers of America. The first ma
tional convention of the CWA, de-
signed as a tightly knit national
union which, to replace the loose
ly federated NFTW, will be held
during the week of June 8 at Mi

already ratified by IS unions rep
resenting 300,179 workers, will not
confine itself to the telephone in

communications field.

New Health Bill
Would Cover $500
Of Population

Washington (IPA)-What veter-
an Sen. Robert F. Wagner d., ~.
" termed ''the capstone which
will hold together all which has
been done so far" to provide medi-
cal services for all of the Ameri-
can people finally took legislative
form last week. The National
Health Insurance & Public Health
Bill, S-1320, was introduced by
Senators Wagner, Murray 3D.,
Mont. J, Pepper 3D., Fla.), Chavez
d., n. NJ, Taylor 3D., Idaho)
and McGrath 3D., r. ID.. On the
same day, its companion, HR-3548
was entered in the House by Rep.
John D. Dingell 3D., Mich.).
Here is how Sen. Murray de-
scribed the health insurance fea-
lures of the bill to the Senate:
The system of prepaid personal
health services is national in scope
and would cover close to $50 or
more of the population. This in
cludes employees, persons in bust
ness for themselves, those receiv-
ing social security or civil-service
pensions, and their dependent chill
dren, wives-or disabled husbands
and parents.
The persons who become eligible
for benefits would be entitled to
medical and dental services from
general practitioners and specialists,
home-nursing care, hospital care,
and auxiliary services-laboratory,
X-ray, expensive prescribed medi-
cines, eyeglasses, special applian-
ces, and so forth. Other persons
who are not automatically insured,
including the needy who are eligi-
BILE for public assistance, may be
covered just like all others through
premiums paid on their behalf.
Free choice of doctor, dentist,
and so forth, by the patient is
guaranteed, as well as the right
to change ones choice.
Every qualified doctor, dentist,
nurse, hospital, and so forth, is
also guaranteed the right to por-
ticipate or not, and to accept or re-
ject patients. These guarantees ap-
ply to organized groups of practi-
TONERS, clinics, health-service
plans, consumer cooperatives, and
so forth, as well as to individuals.
Every hospital that participates
is guaranteed against supervision
or control of its management

the patient, would pay the costs

CAMEL STRIKE
IN 41H. WEEK

Winston-Sa Salem, N. C. (LPA)-
Police Chief William Gold has
praised the orderliness of the 10,-
900 white and colored workers
whose strike against the makers OF
Camel cigarettes is now in it's
fourth week. The workers, are de-
manding a 15c raise, union secur-
ity and the checkoff.
So far the company has stuck by
it's "final offer" Of five and half
cents = and no union security
clauses or checkoff, though the lat
ter provision has been in contracts
for the past five years.
r. j. Reynolds Co., maker of
Camels, can hardly plead inability
to meet the national wage increase
standard. In 1916 it's profits, be-
fore taxes, but after all costs in
cluding wages had been met, were
$49, 9,309, 900, while it's wage bill was
only $16,0C0,000. The corporation,
500 of whose stock is owned by
81 individuals paid out that year
$19,264 900 in dividends.
