HOW TO CHANGE
THE u. N. CHARTER

One of the most difficult
problems facing world
statesmen today is the ques-
ton of how soon and to
what extent the U. N. should
revise its 10-year-old char
ter.
Students, and others who
like to keep abreast of inter-
national affairs, will find
valuable material in a book
published by the Bookings
Institution under the title,
up X OPO SAILS FOR
CHANGES IN THE UNITED
NATIONS" ($5).
1t is the second in a series
of seven volumes on the
U. N. The authors of this
volume-Francis o. Wilcox
and Carl M. Marcy-were
well qualified for their par
ticular subject. At the time
they wrote the book they
were chief of staff and con-
sultant, respectively, for the
Senate Foreign Relations
Committee. Mr.. Wilcox has
since become an Assistant
Secretary of State, and Mr..
Marcy succeeded him as
chief adviser to the Senate
committee.

doch. (The Viking Press;
$3.75.)
This is a wicked novel in
the manner of the early Aldous
Huxley. Not since "Antic Hay"
have we had such a mad me-
LANCE of farce and sexuality.
Miss Murdoch. however, leaves
out the social messages that
used to punchuate Mr.. Huxley's
worldly flow; you can make
what you like of her outrageous
tale, or even just read it with
laughter and shock.
The enchanter of the title is
a man as mysterious as fog,
as compelling as an undertow.
He is Mischa Fox, whose un-
heralded arrival in England
sets off a train of events that
range from attempted black
mail to suicide.
Between Two Poles
Mischa, when we meet him,
is attempting to add to his
vast empire a dying suffragette
magazine. The Artemis is run
by Hunter Keepe. whose sister,
once IN love with MiScha, is
now entangled with two Poles.
Rosa, a successful journalist
who in a mood of self-concious
ascetism" takes up factory
work, meets two mad young
Poles, whom she befriends and
teaches English. They are like
a pair of young leopards, but
soon they master her. She be-
comes the mistress of both.
