superb sense of humor and the abil-
ity to forget the cares of ofiice long
enough to enjoy a party.
Gen. Gray didn't get around to
making the speech members had
expected, but that was because he
was so busy shaking hands and ex-
changing anecdotes. When it was

Fine Color Plates
In New Art Work

GREAT. PAINTINGS IN AMERICA. Sc.
lected and interpreted by Fiske Kimbau
and Lionello Ventura. (Coward-Mc-
This Is the handsomest "art gall
lery' OF fine color reproductions
that I have seen in nine years. In
cluding 101 masterpieces of paint
ing, it constitutes a brief survey
from before Duccio to John Marin,
selected by two outstanding author
tiles. Fiske Kimball, director of the
Philadelphia Museum of Art, has
written an introduction on the
understanding and enjoyment of
paintings. Lionello venturi, profess
sor OF art at the University of
Rome. supplied the comment on
each plate, the masterpiece itself,
and something about the artist and
his work.
The quality of the plates is, of
course. the paramount considera-
ton. The large majority seem to
me exceptionally fine. But if one
rs ungrateful enough to hunt for
flaws, one will find a few in the
color and tone of certain reproduc-
tlons which do not seem faithful
to the originals. Nor will any one
be IN complete agreement with
every choice of masterpiece, but
that is inevitable.
Most of these plates will be very
familiar to Washington art lovers,
as nearly one-third reproduce mas
terpieces In the National Gallery of
Art and the Phillips Memorial
Gallery.
1t is truly a superb compilation.
ana a covetable item for every
library.

peaceful possibilities. He summed
up his views thus:
To-day nearly every aspect of
atomic work in our country Is, by
law, Government monopoly. This
monopolistic power is the greatest
and most far-reaching in our his
tory. In those respects in which
this monopoly is necessary to safe
guard this secret, and to develop its
military uses, it must be maintained
in the hands of the Government at
all costs. But with this precaution
for our security, it is perfectly clear
that atomic progress cannot con-
tinue to be left exclusively to the
Government. I propose that
we protect this weapon of our mill
tary defense with every means, and
that We develop it further with
every means. And then I propose
that we go on from there and give
American initiative and skill a
chance to turn this power to produc-
tive and peaceful account for the
benefit of all our people"
Control of Communists
I'VE must neither ignore the
Communists nor outlaw them" said
the Republican nominee. IF we
ignore them, We give them the cloak
Of immunity they want. If we out
law them, We give them the martyr
dom they want even more"
He advocated strict enforcement
Of existing laws, and amendments
where necessary, but added, well
have no thought police"
Control of Tidelands
Although this issue has not been
widely discussed in the campaign,
the two major parties are on op-
posite sides Of 1t. Under the DEM
ocrats, the Federal Government as
serted and won court approval Of
its claim to control of these oil
rich coastal lands. The Republican
platform Endorsed the claim of the
States to jurisdiction. and Gov.
Dewey, in his speech accepting
nomination, Endorsed the platform
as whole.
Civil Rights
I'VE will press forward in solv-
ing the problems of race relations
and discrimination In the great
American tradition of freedom and
equality and thus deepen the unity
of our people" said the Republican
nominee. /
On this issue his words are backed
up by his record in Albany, where
he placed a fair employment prac-
tice statute on the State law books.
In making national unity" his
underlying theme. Gov. Dewey, from
the beginning of the campaign,
sought to put across the philosophy
that all Americans need to work
together if the problems of these
times are to be solved, both at home
and abroad. He kept repeating the
doctrine that no one group-the
farmer, city worker or businessman
can get along without the Others
