In Eerie Darkness
And Bright Sunlight

THE DELICATE PREY
BY Paul Bowles. (Randon'
House; $3.)
THE FRESH AND OPEN SKY
BY Richard Sullivan. (Henry
Holt & Co.; s3J
Among young authors of neu-
rotic fiction, Paul Bowles is out
standing, if this is a distinction.
He is a writer of great technical
gifts and sure hand at creating
the atmosphere which is so I'M
portant in his stories. These tai
ents, revealed in his first novel,
1.-THE Sheltering Sky" are again
evident in these II studies of per-
versity and perversion. His char
acters range from the merely
cross-grained to the sadistic. The
settings are tropical countries,
often blighted villages or jungles
and deserts, which serve to in
crease the impression that the
stories should be read to sound
effects of maniacal laughter.
The dedication sounds the key
note for this macabre collection.
It reads: For my mother, who
first read me the stories of Poe. y
In a few instances Mr.. Bowles
makes Poe seem positively whole
some by comparison.
X * X II
Search the world and you
wouldn't find another short-story
writer further removed from Paul
Bowles in spirit and subject than
Richard Sullivan, who writes his
stories in bright sunlight in an
appreciation of the moments of
communion that come in the
course of everyday events. Many
of the selections here concern
happily married couples who draw
closer together in small crises
through love and understanding
Mr.. Sullivan's themes are often
slight, but they are never senti-
mentally handled or overwritten
He has a sense of proportion,
which, added to his sensitivity
gives his work unusual freshness
and finish.

room, Georgetown Library, Wis
consin avenue and r street, an
exhibition of IS paintings, mostly
water colors. by Henriette Lauter-
man. Entitled Mostly George
town." they depict the old houses
and streets of that section.
This is Mrs. Lauterman's third
solo exhibition, her first having
been held at the Delphic Studios,
New York City, several years ago,
and her second in November, 1949,
at the Central Public Library here.
A resident of Washington for
some years, she has exhibited in
a number of group exhibitions.
She is a graduate of Columbia
University and also attended the
Art Students League of New York.
She has taught art in New York
and Washington.
Despite this sophisticated back
ground, she paints in a pseudo
primitive way. using strong, vivid
colors, and disregarding proper
tion and perspective at times.
This is accepted practice in
various modern idioms; but Mrs.
Lauterman's pictures approach
naturalism so closely that one
rather looks for traditional con-
ventions. She is concerned with
stressing design by emphasizing
and manipulating lines in her
subjects that contribute to it, as

December Shows
At W,hyte Gallery
And Smithsonian
By Florence S. Berrymon

The Whyte Gallery recently
opened its group show of paintings
in oil and water color suitable in
size and theoretically in price. for
Christmas gifts. The exhibition
will remain on view through De-
cember, thus affording recipients
of Christmas checks an oppor-
tunity to select their own pictures,
which would seem to be a safer
procedure.
In view of the strength of in
dividual tastes, and the f1rmness
of convictions about art, it is a
risky business to pick painting
for some one else, unless one has
a really intimate knowledge of the
other persons preferences. Prints
and decorative arts are different
matter, for the former are often
kept in portfolios. and the latter
frequently are used only at inter-
walls and can be tucked out OF
sight.
OF more than 30 paintings on
view at the Whyte Gallery, there
are just nine that I would be
pleased to find among my Christ
mas gifts. liked John Gernand's
poetic Sunset in Winter" seen
through bare tree branches; Har-
old Giese's peaceful Gold. Nigh"
with a moon; Leonard Maurer's alb
stract, yellow and Brown" with
a bare-tree effect; Lois Jones and
Celine Tabarys glimpses of France;
Kenneth Stubb's delicate "Avig-
non" rooftops; John C. Lewis
Tangled Nets" in pinkish-mauve
and grays; Marguerite Burgess
Water Street." and Edward Ros-
enfeld's characterful Winter"
Some OF the others are well
painted and have certain facets
of interest. But as permanent wall
decorations they leave something
to be desired. in my opinion. For
instance, I should think Sarah
Bakers melancholy clowns would
have a depressing effect on those
who live with them. But some
other gallerygoers will probably
feel quite differently. A friend of
mine bought at a Washington
Independents show back in the
1930s, a painting of a drunken
pirate which delights her so much
it is the one permanent object in
her interior. So there is simply
no accounting for tastes, in Christ
mas gifts or anything else.

Mox LowenthoIs Book on FBl
Roises Coin on CopitoI Hill

No book of recent date has
rated so much review space in the
Congressional Record as Max
Lowenthal's The Federal Bureau
of Investigation" a documentary
which takes a critical view OF
j. Edgar Hoover, one of the few
public officials who has seldom
come within range of congress
sional sharpshooters.
Senator Hickenlooper of Iowa
led off the parade of critics on
November 81. On the House side
Representative Rivers of South
Carolina called the book IAN in
sidious attack" and wondered how
it was that so many copies had
seen sent around official Wash
ington. Representative Velde, OF
Illinois, an alumnus of the FBI
called for a boycott of the book.
Called off the floor, Representa-
tive Rivers said he hadn't read the
book, which had been sent him by
the publishers, but had read
enough about it to know what it
was like.
That's the trouble" said a rep
resentative of the publishers. VIII
liam Sloane & Co., contacted by
telephone in New York. "every-
body's talking about the book
but nobody's buying it,"
Sloane printed 5000 copies in
the first printing. but the book
hasn't been out long enough to
determine whether the columns of
news space and review space in
papers here and in New York have
stimulated sales.
AS for the large number of free
copies sent to congressional and
judicial offices, the publishers say
it was part of a publicity cam
paign, financed entirely by them
selves.
