Gertrude Stein, who was more
gifted than his sister but was
less widely known because his
appeal was rather to the intellect
than to fondness for the bizarre,

edited by Edmund Fuller, en-
titled Journeys into the Self" It
is entertainingly reviewed by
Lloyd Morris in the New York
Herald Tribune Book Review.
when his remarkable book,
Appreciation was published in
1947," writes Morris, Leo Stein
had become a legendary figure.
Long a resident of Florence, he
was scarcely remembered in
Paris where, for more than two
decades, he had been a person
age. There was still much talk of
his sister, Gertrude, who had
died a year earlier; her work,
her salon, her superb collection
Of modern paintings. Nobody
yentured to recall that the salon,
like the collection, had been
founded by Leo-that he had
been the earliest interpreter and
champion of modern art"
Stein was able to distinguish
between the merit In modern art
and its perversion into the af-
fectations, absurdities, and gro
tesqueness which have come to
be associated with modernism in
the public mind. And he consid-
cred his sister Gertrude's writ
ings the literary counterpart OF
these deformities.
When Picasso entered his
cubist phase and Gertrude Stein
began attempting TO make litera-
ry application Of ficasso's theo-
ries, Leo Stein wrote: "Cubism
whether In paint or Ink is TOM
myrot. 1t seems to me to be the
intellectual product OF the unin-
tellectual. and ! prefer the unin-
tellectual to manifest themselves
on q merely intelligent plane" !"
Gertrude, hungering and
thirsting for glory writes Nor
ris, "and with an Unsuitable APP

commented, IF the Pakistan
army is here. Pakistan will win;
II we have the Indian army, India
will win"
The city Kishmiris' reasons for
preferring Pakistan are interest
ing, although not entirely valid.
Many say that they lost their
prosperity when the Rawalpindi
Road, the shortest and easiest
route into Kashmir, was closed
and heavy tourist traffic stopped
coming. The road is in the hands
OF Pakistan. They want to join
Pakistan SO the trade can be re-
opened.
What they forget is that their
best tourists were British residents
Iof India who took annual leaves
IN kashmlr. With the departure
OF the British at the advent of
independence in 1947, that tourist
trade was bound to dwindle and
cannot be restored, whether the
Rawalpindi Road is open or closed
The second most common reason
advanced by shopkeepers, artisans,
houseboat owners, bus drivers and
hotel servants was that I'VE are
Moslems. Therefore. we want to
go with Moslem Pakistan."
That was the argument by
which India was divided and
Pakistan created in 1947. 1t con-
tinues to be important.

rived from complaints over opera
