"Tallulah," the books title and
the only appropriate one, could
not fail to be dramatic reading.
It does not fail. 1t is one Of those
vivid, fascinating stories usually
described as the kind one cannot
put down." BY virtue of Herculean
strength of will, and unadulterated
disloyalty to Miss Bankhead, this
reader did manage to lay aside his
copy. It disappeared in an interval
that must have set a new record
for autobiography, but one no less
than is Tallulah's due.
Fortunately, Harper's had
thought to provide two copies, per-
haps anticipating just such a con-
tingency.
Miss Bankhead who has faced
an array of life's facts thatSwould
overwhelm a less high-spirited
human is not one to quail before
them at a time like this. She is
endowed with certain electrifying
gifts of which two of the most
thoroughly used are candor and
unconventionality. Both are evil
dent in her treatment of Tallulah's S
life as. for instance. in the abrupt
sentence: II found no surprises

UnderStandably. she has seen
no need to document this admis-
sion.
AS autobiographer, Miss Bank
head anticipates that readers ex-
pect to be taken on a broomstick

has no disposition. however, to
ravage her personal privacy COM
pletely to satisfy excessively NOR

1895, the price of "Tallulah." T"
There are reticence, dahlings,
that no one can live without, but
literally no one.
Miss Bankhead'S trick is to re-
sort to fewer of these than almost
anyone else in her passionate OBJ
servations on life, art, acting,
alcohol, amour, enemies. friends,
family, and the New York Giants.
Obviously these are not areas Of
experience on which Miss Bank
head has enjoyed a monopoly.
The difference between what she
and others have found in them
apparently lies in a different in
tensity of approach. The image
of Tallulah that emerges from her
book is that of a woman who has
merely tried to devour life before
1t could devour her.
AS the most newsworthy female
of her time, Miss Bankhead's S
autobiography has been robbed OF
the surprises that mere mortal
could have saved for his readers
If any.
Yet, it may be startling to some
that she confesses here to loath-

63,S70 PrihiIofs
 Seal Skins Sf. LoUis- Bound for Processing

Between June 20 and July 27 of this year, the United States Cow ernment took 63,870 fur seal skins from the Pribilof Islands in Alas ka, it was revealed recently by Secretary of Interior Oscar Chap man.
 The pelts were taken, under direction of the Fish and Wildlife Service, chiefly from three-year- old male seals. The 1852 pelt total was an increase of 3,181 over last year.
 Approximately 30 percent of the worlds fur seals go to the Pribilof Islands to breed each summer, it is estimated. During the winter they range southward as far as Southern California. FWS officials on the PribilofS as- sure ample reserve stock for the herd in taking the peltS each year.
 Killing of seals while at sea is prohibited under an agreement between Canada and the United States. Twenty percent of the 1852 take will be delivered to Canada under terms of this agreement.
 The governments skins will be shipped, as in years past, to the Fouke Fur Company of St. Louis for dressing, dyeing and sale. The company acts as the Govern ment's agent in processing and selling the seal skins. Criticism of diverting this business outside the Territory has been the subject ot frequent criticism by Alaskans eager to build up the Territory's economy through establishment of business and industry.
