Control Printing
Examples Shown
In April Exhibit

The Smithsonian Institution.
presenting the work Of Herbert
D. Ohm. Of San Antonio. Texas. as
its featured one-man Photographic
exhibit for April. offers a radical
departure from the usual straight
photography exhibits. Mr.. Ohm.
A. s. p. A. is a founding member
Of the American Society OF Photo
graphic Art. and Of the Photo
graphic Society Of San Antonio.
He is one Of the few pictorialists
in this country considered an ex-
pert in the control printing pro-
cesseS.
The so prints are beautifully
executed examples OF control
printing. including palladium. bro
mol. kallitype. carbro. gumpal-
ladium. multiple gum oil. carbon,
carbon-paper negative, multiple
oil transfer, ferro-prussiate bas-
relief, as well as bromide and
chlorobromide.
Mr.. Ohm says my work inclines
very strongly toward the romantic
or as 1t Is called by some. the
escapist type Of photography. I
enjoy attempting TO retain,
through the Photographic me-
dium, some of the beauties Of
nature. ! don't wish to put forth
a message point q moral or TO
tell a story. but only to bring to
the beholder Of the picture. some
of the emotion I personally felt
when first seeing the scene. ! have
no quarrel with those who feel
differently. but as photography is
only hobby with me. although q
very engrosSing one, feel free to
work in the manner I enjoy most.
Describing his background Mr..
Ohm said. "I have been working
seriously at photography for the
past decade. being interested in 1t
much longer than that. My work
lies soley in the so-called control
processes In which I work not be-
cause Of Q fascination for the
mechanics Of them, but rather be-
cause I feel that better pictures
can be made through these
media"
The exhibit will be open to the
public Sundays and weekdays
from Q am. to 4:30 pm. in the
northwest gallery Of the Arts and
Industries Building. Ninth street
at jefferson drive SW.

popular OF all with picture editors,
both of local papers and of ma
tional magazines. II you are in
terested in making money with
your camera, keep this lucrative
market in mind when taking your
shots. Just any picture Of an ami
NAL or other Zoo inmate will not
sell. The picture must be anus
ing, tell q story, or have some
definite human interest angle to
appeal to purchasers in the photo
market. Pictures of this type. like
all others made to be sold, must
carry accurate caption material,
including all pertinent informa-
ton. If people are included in
the photograph be sure to get
names and addresses. 1t is like
wise important to properly iden-
tify people in the order in which
they appear in the picture. The
safest way is to get names IN left
to right order.
Any time you walk through the
Zoo you will find hundreds of
people with cameras taking pic
lures Just as fast as they can.

The raveIer's Notebook

the income Of American travel
agents by making their transpor-
tation purchases outside Of the
United States TO avoid the Is per
cent United States levy.
In kilograms to members Of
Congress calling for action, Mr..
GrinneH said:
The comparative ease with
which American travellers have
found it possible to save the Is per
cent United States tax by pur-
chasing tickets in Bermuda. Latin
America-and now Canada-is
one of two serious problems that
have plagued American travel
agencies.
The other is the purchase of
bargain foreign currency and the
consequent diversion to foreign
soil of travel business that would
normally be booked by American
firms. Many American travellers,
particularly businessmen WHO
make frequent trips abroad. now
buy only their eastbound passage
here and arrange for subsequent
trips when they arrive abroad"
In some instances. Mr.. Grinnell
explained. American travel bu-
reaus have suffered the loss OF
more than half their former west
bound commercial bookings. and
substantial portion OF their east
bound bookings. The Canadian
repeal" he continued. brings
thousands of small United States
businessmen face TO face with
disaster. They are forced to sit by
-helplessly and watch an increas-
ing stream of Americans cross the
border into Canada to buy tax
free air, rail, bus and ship trans
portation or arrange purchases by
mail through Canadian friends at
Is per cent below what law~abid-
ing United States travel agencies
must charge. regardless Of whether
the transportation is for use
within the United States or in
Canada.
"Annulment of the United
States transportation tax is long
overdue"
Later Labor Day-For years,
there has been growing group
of persons advocating postpone
ment of Labor Day. Most active
sponsors of the movement have
been business interests concerned
with vacation travel. Their theory
| is that observance of Labor Day
on the first Monday of September
cuts the summer season several
weeks short by arbitrarily setting
the time for closing warm weather
resorts. Vacationers would stay
longer if this barrier were re-
moved, they contend.
Latest action to solve this situ-
alton comes from the American
Automobile Association. AAA
President r. j. Schmunk has sent
letters to AFL and CIO chiefs to
obtain their views. Chairmen OF
the House and Senate Labor
Committees also have been
queried. The answers may de-
termine what stand AAA will take
on the issue.
Mr.. Schmunk's letters to Will
liam Green, Philip Murray. Sena-
tor Ebert Thomas and Represen-
tative Lesinski pointed out that
large segments Of the travel in
dustry favor shifting Labor Day
