Both the Israel Government

the authority all the public

This Nay Become Military
Classic of the Atomic Aqe

American way Of life. F'unda-
mental to tactics and strategy
are the deep beliefs held by
military people with respect to
the ways of conducting a suc-
cessful war.
The book traces the evolution
of these beliefs from the time
of George Washington and an
alyzes the adaptability Of vari-
GUS military philosophers to the
times when they were in effect.
Gen. Smith. an Air Force Of
flcer with wide combat expert
ence, pulls no punches in evalu-
ating these beliefs. He ex-
presses profound knowledge of
his topic and it is quite possible
his book not only will rank with
the writings of Admiral Mahan,
but it may well become the
military classic of the atomic
age. It is a book to be read by
every person in uniform from
the CT on upward, and by all
civilian Government men who
deal with national security
matters.

Hannibal Story
lis Told VividIy
lin First Novel
HANNIBAL OF CARTHAGE.

HANNIBAL OF CARTHAGE.
BY Mary Dolan. (Macmil-
Ian; $3.75)
The successful oyer-the-
Alps invasion Of Italy by
Hannibal was a military ex-
plot as dramatic then as was
the invasion Of France by the
Allies In World War II.
After Cannae, Hannibal ap-
peared to be virtual master OF
all Italy. In two previous bat-
ties his unorthodox army had
beaten the Romans by supe-
rior strategems. but those de-
feats we're minor compared TO
the Cannae catastrophy.
ALI Were Drafted
Virtually an entire genera
ton Of fighting men were
killed trying to throw the
great Carthaginian out Of the
peninsula. So precarious In
deed was Rome's position that
every man and boy was draft
ed. Those who tried to fee
the city were executed.
Rome's allies, who were in
dependent not so many years
before the invasion. began
going over to Hannibal's side.
Even Capua. flourishing rival
of Rome, detected. and Han
nibal was content to winter
there.
Those exciting years in
which the fate of western
civilization was determined
can be cleaned from many
sources, but this first novel by
Miss Dolan adds a flavor OF
reality the encyclopedias lack.
You experience the hardships
Of the Alpine passes, see the
wild Gauls attacking the shiv-
ering armored elephants,
watch the helmeted Romans
fall when struck by the pellets
Of the Baeleric sling corps.
Hannibal, The Man
Above all, the reader gains
q fair assessment of Hanni-
balls personality from this
book. History is not violated
in the appraisal. Actually. the
historians - most Of them
Roman-find little to say
against the general except
that he ranged about Italy for
is years unable to assuage his
thirst for Roman blood.
How different would have
been the history Of the world
if Carthage could have sup
ported Hannibal's brilliant as
sault. H. A. LYON.

More Soldiers of Fortune
In the Wild Blue Yonder

The book "The Dam Bust
ers" is about the. squadron and
all its feats. The ingenuity
and heroism it relates are
sometimes almost incredible.
Deservedly. the book has been
a best-seller in England.
New Wings for a Warrior"
is about one of the command
ing officers of the squadron.
Leonard Cheshire, holder Of
one of the rarest of all mill
tary decorations, the Victoria
Cross. The writer is most in
terested, however, in what
happened to Cheshire after
the war when he turned his
great energy and self-confl-
dence to helping the i'll and
aged in Britain.
Wing Commander Cheshire
is an amazing young man. and
he has earned the uncritical
admiration of the writer OF
this book.

Expressionist Prints

Irving Amen had his first
Washington one-man show in
1948 at the Division of Graphic
Arts gallery, Smithsonian In
stitution. Now he is having his
second, at the Whyte Gallery,
through June 80. In the in
terim. he has been represented
in the Pennell shows at the
Library Of Congress, including
the present one.
Mr.. Amen has retained his
expressionist technique, with
the advantage of Z more years
experience. These recent prints
have more virtuosity in COM
position, more variety in sub
ject matter. In his 1948 Smith
sonian show. he was primarily
concerned with social injustice,
and his figures were distorted
to a harsh degree to stress
poverty, distress and the effects
of hard labor.
About half his prints in the
present show, all done in the

quarters Of London's Metro
politan Police Force. And the
man who chooses to explain
what that means was the
Commissioner Of Police Of the
Metropolis from 1945 to 1858
AS a civilian and veteran
civil servant. Sir Harold took
over the job Of bringing the
decimated postwar force to
something more nearly ap-
proximating full strength, Of
applying modern techniques to
get the maximum use out Of
available manpower.
To the student Of police
problems, Sir Harold's report
is OF particular interest be-
cause it illustrates that the
headaches of New Scotland
Yard can be matched in any
American city. OF more gen.
eral interest is his matter-of-
fact accounts Of police partici-
patton in such great occasions
as the Coronation of Queen
Elizabeth II, police coping with
the rising tide Of juvenile
crime, police dealing with
murder and such curiou
crimes as the theft of the
Stone of Scone.
The author makes no effort
to glamorize the life Of the
hard-working. unarmed Lon
don hobbies" and the detec-
tives of the c. I. D., but his
great admiration for the men
Of the force shines through
every page.

tience with which ne examined
more than 500 entries, from
which he chose only 65 paint
ings and Is sculptures.
In these days of innumer-
able variations in technique
and viewpoint. there are In
evitably wide areas for dis
agreement as to what is good
painting. Mr.. Weber selected
q show composed mostly. Of abb
stract and expressionist, and
some primitive paintings. Since
the first two are predominant
in contemporary painting. one
would expect a large propor-
ton Of works in those idioms.
But there is still much repre-
Sensational and simplified
naturalistic painting. as well
as detailed realism done with
fine craftsmanship. Hence a
true cross-section Of painting
today ought to include them.
The New Approach
OF course, the avant-garde
apparently consider work done
according to past standards
as "old hat" "flogging q dead
horse" or something Of the
sort. Always the new approach!
Steps along unbroken paths,
however fumhling, are to be
preferred. 1t seems, to con-
tinue according to tried and
proven standards. But novelty
soon pals, If 1t is the main in
gredient.
In this open annual, stu
dents and young artists have
the opportunity. Corcoran
School and American Univer-
sity students and recent grad
yates, also students in other
schools and under private
teachers. are well represented
here, along with many artists
who must be at the beginning
of their careers. At any rate,
80 out Of the 80 exhibitors are
new to me. And some of these
newcomers works on view fall
short, in my opinion, of some
works that were rejected.
e After the disappointing gen.
eral impression, the visitor will
find rewarding individual
works. Among those I thought
good are the following: Caro-
