YANKS FACE
THIS KIND OF
KOREA CLINE
BY JOHN Y. CRoTHERs

Editors Note: Rev. John Y.
Crothers served al years as mis-
siOnary under the Presbyterian
Church in Korea. After evacuating
from Korea recently, ne has been
residing in Japan.
Summer is the "rainy season. in
Korea, though we have seen such
severe droughts that not only could
the rice not be planted, but buck
wheat, which was planted when all
hope of planting the rice had been
given up, was an utter failure. The
following year we saw many pine
trees stripped of their bark, and
asked the reason. TIE people have
no grain to eat, and so are eating
pinebark soup" we were told.
Our greatest flood came July II
1884, following week of steady rain
and day of heavy rain. In Andong
City 400 houses were washed away
400 collapsed where they stood, and
wa Ter entered 1000 houses. On the
bank of the river was playhouse
which had stood there 400 years
About 40 people had taken refuge in
it. The water washed out he foun-
da ton so that the east end collapsed
first, and all people gathered at the
west end. Then the whole building
collapsed and a cloud of dust rose
from it. Soon the building floated
down the river, and we supposed all
had been drowned, but a couple OF
days later all returned to Andong
The building had caught on an is
land 80 miles down. Before this the
Koreans had said, why do the for
eigners build on the nilltops which
are SO cold in winter?" But now
they decided the hilltop was not
such a bad place to build.
1 have seen a flood in November
which washed away the temporary
bridges they used to erect when they
thought The last flood had passed
I hated to see this, for many of these
bridges would not be repaired for a
whole year.
The autumns are beautiful and
the weather bracing. Korea is a
great apple country, which adds to
the attraction of the autumn, but
the persimmon trees are even more
attractive to the eye, and after frost
the taste is marvellous. Fogs will
often fill the valleys in the morning,
but one does not have to climb e
very high hill to get above the fog
and here one seems to be in another
world. Just before the rice is har-
vested is when the country is most
beautiful. The red comes not only
from the oaks and persimmons and
naples, but also from the peppers
drying on the roofs. Even the poplars

Bookutz Lithooruphs

The Division of Graphic Arts,
Smithsonian Building, is showing
through October % an exhibition
of Autographs by Samuel Bookatz.
Born in Philadelphia, educated
in Boston, Cleveland and Europe,
and in the Navy from 1912 to '46,
Mr.. Bookatz has been a WASH
ingtonian for some years. He
was one of the first local artists
to have a one-man show at the
Corcoran Gallery of Art, two
years ago.
Having begun his career as a
portraitist and mural painter,
with a record of sound, conserva-
tive work, Mr.. Bookatz has be-
come increasingly interested in
experimental painting and print
making. He is represented in the
current Artists Guild exhibition
with two paintings showing the
influence of stained glass on his
color schemes.
His exhibition at the Smith.
sonlan comprises % Autographs
in velvety dark tones, with flick
erng lights. Many of his subjects
are biblical and symbolic heads,
over-life-size, some expressing
situations and emotions. such as
apprehension" Solitude" "sor-
row, etc.; most of them appeared
merely somnolent to me. Dis
tortion and elongation add to the
lugubrious atmosphere of these
prints. Even Mr.. Bookatz' clowns
have q mournful air.

Mr.. Bing impresses one as man
who combines business acumen
with artistic enthusiasms. Hardly
ever has an incoming director

only short preparation. With

equilibrium while learning the in

step warily among the pitfalls his

holds firmly to his determination
to combine felicitously the busi-

opera house.
Schooling for Neophyte.
Among the American artists
engaged for the coming season,
two or three will prove extra
ordinary he believes. He bemoans
greatly the fact that there is no
road of preparation for the Met
through smaller opera houses in
this country. In Europe, years are
spent in provincial opera houses

beginning with learning how to-
walk on the stage, is provided for
the neophyte.
The possibility of opera being
sung in English translation seems
very remote to Mr.. Bing. Opera
in English must grow, he thinks,
through creations by native COM
poserS, and that will take years.
Besides, judging from radio polls
and opera attendance. few object
to listening to opera in strange
tongue. The director made the
heartening admission that even he,
despite the countless times he had
heard it, did not know the plot OF
n Trovatore"
Staff Remains European.
When asked as to the feasibility
of the plan (spoken Of during Ed
ward Johnson's directorship) Of
having young American conductors
attached from time to time to the
Metropolitan to learn the art Of
opera conducting, he said it was
not possible. A singer may learn
in less renowned houses or by
progressing from small parts to-
important ones, but no such way
Is open to a conductor. With the
door to opera conducting closed
to many native musicians because
of lack of opportunity, the Metro
politan staff will be made up Of
Europeans.
The question Of government
subsidy of such organizations was
by-passed by Mr.. Bing during the
interview. He admitted that such
support in Europe was accom-
