Jesuits As Educators

A REPORT ON THE AMERI-
CAN JESUITS. BY John La
Fargo. Sd, with photo
graphs by Margaret Bourke-
White. (Farrar, Straus 81
Cudahy; $3.50, is an abb
sorbing account of the work
of Jesuits in America. The
book is beautifully illus
trated by Miss Bourke-
White.
The work of the Society of
Jesus has been largely mis-
sionary and educational. Priests
Of the order first came to
America in 1866 as explorers
and missionaries. 1t is en-
tightening to learn from
Father LaFarge that at
present the Jesuits conduct
80 colleges and universities in
the United States, including
such renowned institutions as
Georgetown. Fordham, Loyola
of Chicago and st. Louis Uni
versity. There are, besides, a
great many high schools and
prep schools sponsored by the
order.
The book is appropriate,
since this year is the 400th
anniversary of the death of
the orders founder, st. Igna-
thus Loyola. Father LaFarge,
who recently observed his
golden anniversary as a Jesuit
priest, published his auto
biography. THE Manner is
Ordinary" in 1854.

Newspapermen are doing
nicely in the book world these

one of the biggest splashes of
the year.

artist, despite severe arthritis,
has an observing eye, a love of
life and a sense of humor, not
to mention considerable knowl-
edge of early decorative arts.

There are so many facets
to this whole complex of the

voted to them. Just one more
point to be mentioned here is
that once people have reached

majority do not want to be

field of disability an inter
view with an internationally
famous European artist, to-
tally deaf, who had come to
the United States ION his first
visit He proved pleasant and
cooperative. but when he
understood from the interpre-
ter that his deafness was to
be emphasized as an encour-
agement to the publications
readers, he said:
mo. no! My handicap must
not be mentioned. I am
not ashamed of it, but it had
nothing whatever to do with
my career. 1t has neither
helped nor hindered me, and
to introduce so extraneous a
subject in connection with my
painting. would confuse your
readers.
He had a right to privacy
in this respect. of course. But
there are undoubtedly many
instances where a disability
channeled into a creative field,
some gifted persons energy
which under happier personal
circumstances. might have
been expended in ephemeral
ways.

EneIund's Hepworth

Sculpture has undergone a
revolution of sorts in the past
half century or more. Some
critics and scholars consider
it a veritable renaissance.
Rodin gave sculpture new vi
tality, and was followed by
French and German neoclas-
sicists and expressionists (such
men as Maillol, Bourdelle and
Lehmbruck). More recently,
many sculptorS have produced
wholly abstract sculpture, in
an effort to get away entirely
from naturalism, which they
felt had reached a dead end.
Regrettably. these momen-
tous developments in q major
medium are seldom seen by
the public. because of the
greater costs of assembling
sculpture shows and the conse-
qhent difficulties museums
have in meeting the expenses.
Washington, hence, is in
debted to the Institute of
Contemporary Arts for pre-
senting a comprehensive ex-
hibition Of work by Barbara
Hepworth. considered one of
England's outstanding con-
temporary sculptors. This is
another Of the major exhibit

ago. to remain through most
Of the summer.

IRISH NOVEL

THE STRAIGHT AND MAR
POW PATH Nv Enn0r

THE STRAIGHT AND MAR
ROW PATH. BY Honor
Tracy. CRandom House;
$500
This book will certainly be
banned in Ireland, which is
rather a pity. Not only is it
screamingly funny for most of
the way, but it is on q theme
dear to Irish hearts, that is the
eternal conflict between Saxon
and Gael. Some people think
that this endless, frustrating
graphing is what Matthew
Arnold had in mind when he
spoke of ignorant armies clash
ing by night on a darkling
plain.
But Honor Tracy has done
something in her book that
simply is not done in Ireland.
She laughs at a parish priest.
Laughs, jeers, derides, boots
at. in fact. And her story is
built on precisely that point:
That in Ireland one does not
attack the clergy with i'm
punity.
Her Canon Peart is an ex-
allied parsonage in Patricks-
town. He is also a thoroughly
materialistic shepherd, banker
ing after all the good things
of this life and squeezing his
parishionerS for the where
withal. Posed against him is
Andrew Butler, Scottish pro-
fessor, who comes straight
from research in the Congo to
observe what he can only call
with scholarly objectivity, some
strong pagan influences still at
work in the land Of saints and
scholars.
He writes q story for an
English paper to this effect.
The Canon is baited to bring
a libel suit by q foxy local
lawyer, the very same one
who lured Andrew to OBJ
serve the sisters at the con-
vent jumping the fires. an
ancient fertility rite.
The pot boils merrily. The
villagers. subtle, devious, in
tuitive. add their oblique bits.
All of Ireland is presently in
volved. 1t is very merry in
deed. Miss Tracy writes well.
The minor characters are
delectable. But she goes too
far for the resolution. She
broadens her attack to in
clude the whole church, the
whole nation. What was
merely mischievous becomes
slightly offensive. She makes
her point-that the English
cannot play the Irish game
and If she had left 1t at that
her book would have been as
Jolly q satire as the year has

Need eggheads apply to the
Republican Party?
Why, yes, says Arthur Lar
sen, UnderSecretary of Labor,
who has not only written q
book himself, but says there
will be more and more Of that
sort of thing going on in the
ranks of the G. o. P. from
now on.
The number of intellec-
tuals. artists and writers at
tracted to the Republican
Party. or at least to the Presi-
dent, is ever growing, says the
author Of "A Republican Looks
at His Party"
Mr.. Larsen, q former law
professor, denies a current re-
port that the publishers of
Dean Acheson's "A Democrat
Looks at His Party" had to
scour the highways and by
ways to find a Republican who
could write a counterpart vol
ume.

His book, Mr.. Larsen says,
was "a quite personal, indie
pendent exertion," begun a
year ago, we'll before Mr.. Ache
sons apologize appeared. It
was an attempt to put into
formal terms the political phi
losophy which President Eli
senhower presently epbodies
but which Mr.. Larsen insists,
has a life of its own.
Only the idea of giving the
book a title that indicated it
was an answer to Mr.. Acheson
came from the publisher, Har-
per & Brothers.
Mr.. Larsen believes that the
heavy balance on the side Of
Democratic writing will slowly
be righted. He says there is a
tradition of literary hospitality
in his party that began with
its founding a hundred years
ago. Longfellow, Holmes and
Emerson "a particular favorite
of Mr.. Larsen) were all Repub-
licans, and Whittier, the poet
of "Snowbound," wrote them a
campaign song.
Their 20-year silence of re-
cent date, he says, was due to
having little to say that any
one wanted to hear-readers
being VIGOROUSLY indifferent to
the announcements of out-of-
Office politicians.

Immediately confirming Mr..
Larsen's contention of in
creased production Gomez
""The Republicans" by NAL
colin Moos. a prominent Balti-
more Republican who will be a
delegate to the San Francisco
convention. His book is APP
parently a retort to David L.
