Librory Sends Regrets
10 Those Poet Fellows
~ MARY McGRORY

The Library Of Congress and
the Fellows In American Letters
have reached 9 parting Of the
ways. The ofiicial reason given
is lack Of funds. but those who
have watched the uneasy alli-
ance between bureaucrats and
Dards through the years think the
real trouble is incompatibility.
The Fellows, a distinguished
group Of writer's which has in
cluded T. S. Eliot and w. H.
Auden, used to come here an
nually as guests of the Govern
ment to advise the Librarian on
pOetical matters, chiefly to choose
an occupant Of the Chair Of
Poetry to be named by him. But
they have not got together at the
Library since the Spring of 1852,
when they made an dictated
choice. And last August they all
received letter from Librarian
L. Quincy Mumford, telling them
he docs not foresee any possi-
bility Of reactivating the meeting
Of the Fellows on the basis OF
available resources" !"
Mr.. Mumford cited a public
statute that forbids government
financing Of conyening of coun-
ellis, boards or commissions sum

icslly authorized, by law.

The search to find some way
out Of the chaos into which
Morocco was fast falling began
last August when Premier Ed-

and talk the problem over.
Two months later Sultan Mo-
Ben Moulay Arafa, an
aged relative Of Ben Youssef
who had been somewhat unwill-

the exile was flown to France.
Ben Arafa Abdicates
Ben Arafa sent letter of
formal abdication. The council
OF the throne called on Ben
Youssef and surrendered its
powers.

took the final step.

idents Of Morocco in their effort
to prevent Ben Youssef's return.
