New Constitution
In Wake Of Coup
By the Assoeiotsd Press

BANGKOK. Mar. 8.-King
Phumiphon Aduldet today signed
q new Thai constitution backed
by members Of the military junta
which overthrew the Government
in a bloodless coup d'etat nearly
four months ago.
The king was on hand for elab-
crate presentation ceremonies
promptly at IL a.m.-the time
deemed most auspicious by astrol-
ogerS.
The new constitution is an
amended version of one originally
adopted in 1882, when a bloodless
revolution ended Slams absolute
monarchy. It is considerably less
liberal than the constitution
thrown out after the coup d'etat
Of last November 20.
Conch shells sounded and sa-
luteS were fired as the King ap-
peared before the crowded ma
tional Assembly. The document
was countersigned by Premier p.
Philbul Songgram. who was ousted
during the coup but Immediately
reinStated with added powers.

Covolcode of the American Novel
BY Edward Wagenknecht. (Holt; $780,

Nine years ago the author
published "Cavalcade of the
English Novel" The success of
that book should stir wide inter-
est in this companion volume.
Students of the novel will find
it stimulating and thorough.
Some changes in the intellec-
tual climate have taken place
since the earlier book was
issued, Mr.. Wagenknecht ex-
plains. In 1943 I thought it
necessary. to explain why I was
not writing sociological criti-
cism and why I did not wish to
permit the frame to take the
place Of the picture. It would
be less necessary to labor this
point today"
But this critic has as little
sympathy for the new criticism
which rejects historical scholar
ship altogether and holds that
every work of art contains
within itself everything that the
reader needs to understand"
In evaluating the work of our
major novelistS he has tried to
appraise them from their own
points of view. to see what they
were trying to achieve and how
well they did it. Naturally the
worth-whileneSs of what they
set out to do enters into such a
discussion. He shows a toler-
ance which impels him to avoid

We Adopted Three
BY Ernest Cady. (Willian Sloane: $780,

When Mr.. Cady, q Midwestern
newSpaperman, and his wife be-
gan their great adventure in
assembling some little sisters
for the only natural child it
was possible for them to have
q rather spoiled boy Of 81, it
was not quite such q fashion,
able thing to do. Now, with
eight applications for every
Adaptable child. most of his
readers will consider him lucky
rather than rash.
The CadyS found almost from
the flrst-with the usual set
backs, of course-that their three
little girls did as much for their
adaptive parents as they did for
them. They helped make a man
out Of their brother. for one
thing. Also they were bound
to the Cadys and to each other
''by q thousand ties as strong
as flesh and blood"
They Were Special
Their first daughter, Jane,
came to them, timid and cring-
ing, from a boarding home at
the age of 26 months. Nine
years afterward they scooped up
Susie at birth and, Is months
later, 3-day-old Sherry joined
the group. All the problems
they presented were, Mr.. Cady
emphasizes. the problems that
children have been offering. to

their parents since the begin
ming of time. The "blood-will-
tell" forebodings Of their friends
have never been realized. AS
for feeling like "second-class
citizens" because they were
adopted rather than natural
children, it simply never hap
pened. Told from the time they
could talk of being special"
they were heard Dragging to
schoolmates, MY mommy and
daddy picked me out! Yours
had to take what they got"
Mr.. Cady, like any fond par
ent, goes on at great length of
the remarkable sayings and do
ings of his children. At the
end Of his book he makes some
excellent recommendations for
changes in the current cumber-
some adoption procedures-all
of them aimed to the great goal
of getting "the maximum num-
ber of children who need paren-
tai love and understanding into
the home of the maximum
number Of reputable and re-
Sponsible people who crave the
Incompatible joy Of having
children to love and care for"
He cites a number of instances
Of "finicking conformity to pro-
fessional standards" which have
often stood in the way.

The Natives Are Friendly
BY John F. Leeming. (E.

BY John F. Leeming. (E. P.
Dutt0n; $3.J
Being an Englishman, Mr..
Leeming took the experience Of
being captured by the Italians
during the late war with almost
imperturbable good humor. The
Italians he found constitution
ally untitled for the role Of
jailers, being excitable, wildly
inefficient, and at that time
early in the war-outspokenly
pro-BritiSh. He and his COM
manding officer, Air Marshal
Boyd, were forced down over
Sicily. rather Historically taken
in hand by hospitable natives
and in due course transported
to medieval castle, where they
passed durance vile in company
with many high-ranking British
officers. Their frequent at
tempts at escape were met with
more reproach than wrath by
their Italian captors. They
were considered "discourteous,"
the unforgivable lapse in Italian
eyes. Eventually, Mr.. Leeming
pretended to 60 mad in order
to be repatriated. The story is
told with typical British under
statement and attention to small
details. It is highly entertain

her. The Able Is inhibited by
his vows. Lamiel finally per-
suades a dif1dent villager to
teach her. She is disappointed
at the result. Years later. after
she has been mistress to several
titled men and is the toast of a
certain gay segment Of Paris,
she is still wondering why love
is so celebrated in song and
story.
Stendhal has sketched his
story with swift vivid strokes.
It is described as q first draft,
but there is nothing rough or
tentative about it. He was a
facile writer, who was supposed
to have dictated 'The Charter
house Of Parma" in 50 days.
"Lamiel" is short-the finished
book might have run twice or
three times as long, there is no
telling-but it is far more than
a fragment.
Sotire on the Times
AS it stands, it is essentially
satire on the times. The
duchess. feeling insecure in her
wealth and title. lives in fear
Of a fresh Jacobin uprising.
To her the French Revolution
is still only yesterday. In the
course Of this story, there is a
fresh revolution in Paris.
Charles x, an ultra-conserva-
tive, is ousted and Louis-Phil-
ippe takes the throne. These
political developments are sug-
gested rather than described.
The young dandies of the day
are broiled in their own words
and acts. An old baron says of
Lamiel: "She's an intelligence
whom the tone Of high-class
company bores."
"Lamiel" could stand as a
witty account of the develop
ment Of a provincial girl into
a gold-plated cocotte. The
reader need not be concerned
with the melodramatic ending
which the author had planned.
Some French critics have called
"Lamiel" Stendhal at his best.

Hours Thut Shine

One more week remains to
see the delightful exhibition of
water colors and drawings by
Carl Nyquist at the Playhouse
art gallery (750 Fifteenth
street,. This Swedish-born ar
tist has been a Washingtonian
for more than a decade. Last
summe er he revisited Europe
France, Italy and Sweden) and
in 1948 he went to Mexico.
The present show includes some
of the fruits of both journeys.
Mr.. Nyquist has a sharp eye
and sure hand for the beauti-
full and picturesque. Ancient
hill towns set like jewels in
noble landscape, cleaning white
in the brilliant sunshine; old
houses, probably uncomfortable
to live in, but exceedingly pho
togenic, and colorful market
places are among the subjects
he has captured and brought
back. The works are natural
istic. combining the vision of
the average man. with an ar
lists perception.
