THOSE DEVILS IN BAGGY

If it should seem a little late
to be writing about World War

grounds. First, Mr.. Carter died
four years ago just before he
finished the book and it was

stories of the type Mr.. Carter
tells simply never grow old.
The Devils in question are
troopers Of the 504th Parachute
Regiment. In the finest "go-
to-hell' tradition of their corps,
they live and love, fight and die
through series of engaging
vignettes.
These stories about the Arab,
the Master Termite, Finkel-
stein, Big Rodgers ct al are
skillfully done. One by one
these fighters fell, and the
stories in this book stand as
separate pearls to their mem
cry, strung together only by the
thread of brave mems bravery.

London with immense gusto.
The story need not be taken too
seriously. The suspicion is that
the author had his tongue
firmly in his cheek when he
presented such pat character
as Christopher Bohun, the
painter who had a fresh model,
who doubled as mistress, every
month. Ursula Amory surren-
dered to this irresistible painter
within an hour after they met,
despite the rigorous tenetS of
Victorian morality under which
she had been raised. With her
eventual marriage to a peer and
her sister Rachel's romance
with a budding barrister, you
can imagine the sophisticated
Mr.. Payne saying, We'll, isn't
that what you expect in Vic
torian romance?" A family
satiric intent also could be read
into the fierce discussions of
Fabian socialism, with Bernard
Shaw taking part. and the OPP
position out-shouting the So
cialists with the cry: But that
could never happen in Eng
land!" However you take the
story, reading it is a lot of fun.

Erskine Caldwell

Career Story

CALL 1T EXPERIENCE
BY Erskine Caldwell. DUEL,
Sloan & Pearce; $780,
Mr.. Caldwell describes how he
learned to write, the long
struggle that rewarded him in
the end with a highly success
full career. His literary adven-
lures should encourage any
faint-hearted writer. For years
he wrote without. selling
manuscript, often hungry, often
cold, but Spurred by determina-
ton that came from an inner
feeling that he could write.
His most famous story, "To-
bacco Road" caused no stir
when it was first published as
novel. Even the play threatened
to close before it caught on, and
he credits the courage of Jack
hUKIand, one OF the producers,
who insisted on keeping it 60
ing, largely for its survival. 1t
ran on Broadway for 712 years,
establishing what then was
record. Although Mr.. Caldwell
wrote book reviews in his early
Journalistic career, usually for
free, he still harbors a grudge
against reviewers. calling them
sadistic and other things. He
excerpts a handful who praised
his early books.
This book is more a literary
than personal biography, but
the author recalls some inter-
esting episodes, especially of his
youth. His advice to writer's is
practical and sound.

Jack Daily. a Washington
neWspaperman of the old school
and for many years an Evening
Star reporter, knew Jimmy
Bland in the musicians hey
day and has made a valuable
addition to the lore OF Amer
lean folk music. Jack is
thwarted minstrel-he was de-
MED a job with Lew Dock
stader's troupe because his blue
eyes would present a fearsome
aspect staring out from behind
burnt cork. But-to steal Mr..
Days title-the song in his
heart impelled him to tell the
story of Jimmy Bland and a
pathetic, readable story it is.
If there were nothing left of
Jimmy Bland but the words and
music Of his joyous spiritual,
"Oh. Dem Golden Slippers" his
legacy would have been a big
one. But the song kept coming
out of Jimmy's heart. Six hum
dred tunes were the grist of his
mill and nostalgia was the grain
from which they were ground.
Few Americans have never
heard I'm the Evening by the
Moonlight"--in fact, it's diff
cult to read the title without
having the soothing tune run
through ones head.
To save the best for last,
Jimmy Bland wrote the unfor-
gettable anthem of the Old
Dominion. Garry Me Back to
Old Virginny." 1t was one of
his early efforts and certainly
one of his greatest and earned
him a merited but poignant
tribute from his white COM
patriots: Five years ago the
Lions Clubs of Virginia erected
in his memory a tombstone over
his grave in a Philadelphia
cemetery.

death penalty. 1t seems that
Temple feels a strong sense of
guilt, shared responsibility for
the baby'S death. 1t was not that
she had any physical part in it,
but Nancy's motive is tied to the
young mothers conduct.
She must tell the Governor all
about it: perhaps he'll under
stand. She does. going to the
mansion past midnight, accom-
panied by Gavin Stevens. And
what she tells the Governor re-
veals much that was puzzling,
much that was hidden between
the lines in Sanctuary" The
thing happened, she says, be
cause Temple Drake liked evil"
She could have escaped from
the Memphis house at any time.
She didn't want to. She was in
love with her captor's partner,
a young fellow, who later was

bush. What has her marriage
amounted to? She entered into
it to eXpiate for-whatever she
was guilty Of Gowan, too.
married her to atone for getting
drunk, wrecking the car, deliv-
ering her to a criminal. Their
marriage had brought only re-
elimination.
The drama is developed with
taut suspense. The dialogue is
sharp. colloquial, never lapsing
into Mr.. Faulkner's hammered,
involved prose. The prologues are
IN Mr.. Faulkner'S peculiar
SyntaX, with sentences that
run on practically forever.
And yet somehow these back
ground chapters never are
obscure; they contain, in
fact. some of the authors most
eloquent writing. Where Mr..
Faulkner's last novel, Intruder
in the Dust" was intricate, hard
to read, Requiem for a Nun"
flows throughout with a sweep
ing clarity that irresistibly car
rles you along. 1t is an inspired
and lear-sighted portrayal of
character-perhapS his most
effective book.

Better Pictures

THE PICTURE WINDOW
BY Josephine Lawrence. Will
liam Morro,D & Co.. 49,
Reviewed by Margaret S. Dickey
The picture window - if
taken seriously-cannot fail to
leave the reader obsessed with
the idea of mothers-in-law con-
stantly prepared to descend
ike the locust on any child
with the temerity to marry.
Garth and Bonnie Wheeler,
however. prove that seven can
live as happily as two, but this
does not weaken the impression
the book gives that predatory
mothers. weak sons and selfish
girls about to marry the sons,
will soon take over the world.
And if this is so, the question
remains of who will live in all
those little ranch houses with
picture windows that the girls
want and the sons want but
that aren't big enough for the
motherS-In-law
The Wheelers solve the prob
lem and get their picture win
dow too, but the rest return en-
gagement rings fly off to Reno

wishes for the mother in law.
In the end you begin to think
the couple that manages to live
with the family around is. after
oil, a little out of step.
The trouble is-of course
Josephine Lawrence forgot to
mention that some families
actually like each other.

Anne Crone's Awaited New Novel
Is Excellent Character Study
Reviewed by Mary McGrory
THIS PLEASANT LEA
BY Anne Crone. (Charles Scribner's Sons: So

When Anne Crone's first
novel. Birdie Steen.' was pub
lished three years ago, reviewers
who had thought that nobody
was writing such fiction any
more-fell upon it with cries of
delight. For the young Irish
writer combined a mastery of
style with a depth of under
standing chat recalled the Vic
torians at their best.
Now with the novelty past and
her second novel at hand, it is
possible TO view her talents a
little more calmly. While This
Lea" exhibits the same solid
qualities, it would seem that
Miss Crone. having been praised
for her traditional virtues has
borne down upon them bit
heavily this trip. Needlessly
solemn in places, she becomes
even ponderous and stilted and
IN some cases she is SO Senten-
tious that she causes amuse-
ment where none was obviously
intended With all that, how
ever, she is still a first-clasS
novelist who can give too many
writer's of her age cards and
spades for integrity.
AS Birdie Steen" dealt with
religious blgotry in Northern
Ireland, This Pleasant Lea"
shows the disastrous conse-
quences OF social bigotry in the
same locale. The victim here is
Faith Storey, dutiful daugh-
ter, a fine, grave, unselflsh
young woman who falls in love
with solicitors son named An
tony Fletcher. Antony's father.
a conscientious social climber, is
appalled, at the thought of his
heir marrying farmers daugh-
ter who is moreover the sister
of a man who was forced to
marry a common village girl.
AS /! to underline his disap-
proval, the elder Fletcher suf-
fers a shock Faith, conditioned
to responsibility through family
adversely, decides that her mar
riage to Antony should be post
poned, or, as she puts it, Ito
suffet' now and win him later
IN the happiness of untarnished
elf-respect."
Not of Sterner Stuff.
And so Faith learns that vir-
tue is it's own reward - and
sometimes its only reward. An
tony is not of the sterner stuff
that love in remuneration de-
mands. AS her worthless broth
er's fortunes worsen Faith has
to lean more and more on Mark
Liddell, her neighbor and hope
less sutton.
Into this very simple plot
Miss Crone has poured a wealth
of insight. So true and so deep
that it compensates in large
measure for the almost COM
plete lack of dramatic nara
tive. The Characterization is ex-
cellent, although Miss Crone is
more convincing with the wom-

by a long prose chronicle, filling
IN the history and significance
of the scenes to folloW-not the
drama, but the physical settings
and the ancestral background
of certain characters. In this
form the book must be rated
a novel built about a play-or
a play nodded into novel,
whichever you prefer.
The story is a sequel to that
Sordid melodrama of an earlier
Faulkner period, Sanctuary"
Those who read Sanctuary"
will remember Temple Drake
wildly. She was the college girl
from Jefferson (seat of Nh.
Faulkner's county-kingd dom,
Yoknapatawpha, in Mississippi,
who went by train to a base
ball game, got off the train and
motored 100 miles with Gowan
Stevens. a young man of i'm
peccable social position. Co
wan was drunk and wrecked the
car as they drove into a boot
legger's place in the country.
GoWan passed out, but Temple
witnessed a murder. The
killer. who was the bootlegger,
abducted Temple and took her
TO Memphis. Holding her as an
alibi witness, he placed her for
security in a bawdy house he
owned. There she remained for
10 days. When he was tried
she did testify for him, and he
was acquitted. Later he was
hanged for a murder he didn't
commit. but that has little to do
with the sequel.
New Drama Unfolds.
In the new drama we find
Temple in Jefferson, married to
Gowan for several years. After
the Memphis episode Temples
family had taken her abroad for
a year, and then Gowan had
done the right thing by her rep
utation. They had two children.
Now they have only one. The
baby was strangled by a Negro
MAZDA woman of bad reputa-
ton whom Temple for some rea-
son had hired. Now, in the OPEN
ing scene. the maid, Nancy, is
in court. The judge pronounces
sentence of death. The woman's
lawyer is Gowan's uncle, the
philosophical Gavin Stevens, a
favorite Faulkner character.
In later scenes Temple pleads
for Nancy's life, eventually to
the Governor. But why? 1t is
no abstract opposition to the

Robert Poyne's Romantic Novel Recalls

RED LION INN
It Payne. fPrentice-Hau; $780,


This young English writer,
amazing in both energy and ver-
Satility, INDUCES his fair for
romance and adventure when he
is not turning out factual books
about the Far East and other
studies of current affairs. In
this novel he goes back to Lon
don at the century's turn. 1t is
an era romantic by contrast, for
then EngliShmen could still get
enough to eat and drink. shill-
ing would buy quite a lot and
it was no crime to enjoy your
self.
The Red Lion Inn, shown at
the pinnacle Of its prosperity in
1900, was an East London pub,
owned by Jabez Amory, a solid
family man who revered Queen
Victoria, roast beef and a spot of
gin now and then. Jabez had
an invalid wife, two interesting
sons and two red-haired daugh-
tiers who were the delight and
despair of all the younger GUS
toners and some of the Older
ones. The elder son was away
fighting in the Boer War, and
the younger boy, just growing
up, left for the sea and the
fabulous East. The girls were
sheltered carefully under the
mantle of middle-class respec-
liability, but adventure awaited
each just around a London cor
ner.

Her Own Story
our or RONDAGE

OUT OF BONDAGE
BY Elizabeth Bentley. (DeUin-
Adair; $780,
The highlights of Miss Bent
leys story are already well
known. They were revealed in
her testimony before congress
sional committees, which also
brought out the drama of her
early American background and
her VasSar education. 1t is per-
haps to her credit that in this
memoir of her days as a Com
munist courier, she does not
attempt either to sensationalize
her experiences or to rationaliZe
her point of view.
She was not, as has been
supposed, an entirely emotional
Communist. She was card
carrying member long before she
met Jacob Golos, a member of
the Russian Secret Police, with
whom she lived and worked
during the '30s and early '40s,
when her job as an underground
agent was to handle Red SYM
pathizers in the Government.
Upon Golos' death, her doubts
and fears crowded in on her,
and she realized that the Ameri-
can party was completely at the
mercy of the Russians.
Why this subjugation to Mos
COW was not clear to her all
along is not made clear. Other
details are equally vague. A
perfectly ordinary style and Miss
Bentleys general inarticulate-
ness make this account, despite
its inherent fascination, quite
lackluSter.
