Harnett Kane Is one of three
authors whose books will be used
by Maxwell M. Geffen in his new
venture concerned with selling the
movie rights for selected novels.
Geffen, publisher of Omnibook and
the six-month-ol magazine, Book
Reader, has put his own cash on the
line for screen rights to New Or
leans Woman" Harnett Kane's new
novel, for Robert Penn Warren's "All
the Kings Men," and for THE
Salem Frigate," by John Jennings.
Having acquired these rights, he
intends to sell them to the producer
who will plan the most faithful
screen dramatization of the book, in
the belief that the public should not
be fooled by subterfuge such as the
title of book being used for a pic
ture which may be only remotely
similar to the plot OF the original
story. The idea is that when certain
careful arrangements are guaranteed
before a picture is done, profits from
the picture produced will pay both
the author and Mr.. Geffen for his

Fifteen months in the Nazi con-
centration camp at Buchenwald is
the source material of this book
written by an Englishman who draws
from his experience some discour-
aging conclusions not only about
Europe and Europeans but mankind
as a whole.
Mr.. Burney found at Buchenwald
a cross-section of Europe. with every
major acknowledgement the Ger
mans-well represented. He found
no brotherly feeling flowing from the
common plight of these miserable
human beings. Many of them be-
came churlish, grasping and ready
to cheat or betray the next man

their own sad welfare whit.
He found at Buchenwald, regu-
larly established hierarchy under
the German Communists. The
prisoners themselves ran the day-to-
day life of the camp under the gen.
eral supervision of the SIS. When
prisoners were to be prepared for
shipment to fatal destinations it
was seldom the SIS who whipped
and beat them into line-more often
other prisoners, members OF the in
ternal police force, which did the
Nazis' dirty work for them.
The authors scorn is heaped on
the French prisoners, but he had
varying degrees of praise for the
Russians, Czechs and Jews who came
to the camp. He sums up his con-
clusions thus:

To Re-eStaDllSh hOmemdkinS.
There is no doubt about the need
of more psychiatristS, and the Vet
erans' Administration, for example,
is trying valiantly right now to
train enough for its hospitals and
clinics, but the number needed to
meet the demands detailed by our
authors is almost astronomical.
Another remedy urged is a Fed
eral Department of Welfare, to Co
ordinate all activities relating to the
welfare of women, children and the
home" and to set up an educational
program to encourage the recon-
struction of family life within the
setting of chronological society"
Cash subsidies should be paid to
mothers to encourage child-bearing.
The schools should be improved
by not only lifting the obstacles to
the employment of married women
as teachers but by giving marked
preference to mothers in that Ca
pacity.
Finally, all possible should be done
to re-establish the job of homemak-
ing, to restore to woman "satisfac-
ton of her need for self-esteem
(and -" a sense of social impor-
tance."
The arguments, whether one
agrees with them or not, are effec-
lively presented with wealth of
historical detail. Unless he is a
complete misogynist, however, the
reader is likely to feel that the pic

Richards Ma had spent a great

1905, produced people like Marble

rich and refined families.
Richard, who was born with the
salt of the sea in his blood, whose
grandfather and father had spent
the greater part of their lives on
the sea, ran away from his home
in Stonington at the age OF 10 and
slowed away on the bark Undine.
All his life he remembered that
gruelling voyage, taxing to the ut
most the strength, courage and en-
durance of all. But he also acquired
a vast treasure trove of wisdom and
knowledge on this three-year trip
over to Fayal and Africa, round
the Horn and over to the Dutch East
Indies. 1t was in Fayal that he
first heard the heart-rending Ia
ments sung by the chained and Woe
begone cargo known as black ivory.
In later years he was to know the
unrest that such cargoes as these
were to create. A few years later

burst of desire to be off to some
far port or in search of Leviathan,
the mighty whale, he was overcome
by Marble, her passionate distress
and his unflinching love for her.
AS a cure for this hopeless state
of mind, he steered his spirit OF
adventure in other directions and
sank deeply. both financially ana

production of iron ships ribs and
later into the screw propeller. This
