Washington Letter
George Washington was
deeply interested in the estab-

tai City here. There is a letter
to him from the commission
ers, enclosing an estimate from
a contractor for two houses the
first President proposed to
build here.
Innumerable handsome pri-
vate homes have been built

fore the advance of progress"
Others have given way to i'm

sion, for which Benjamin
Latrobe was architect, COM
pleted in 1916, one Of the coun-
try's finest early private
buildings, remained until 1908,
when it was RACED to build the
Pan American Union. The ex-
hibition has a charming water
color by Walter Paris of the
residence. Earlier and later
private homes, some gone, some
still standing. are illustrated or
represented in the show.
Early churches, schools, street
scenes, cable cars, and a host
of other locales and details of
everyday life, intrigue the
visitor. There are many old
hotels, some with names which
survive, others with more ro-
mantle titles - the Indian
Queen Hotel on Pennsylvania
avenue. more than a century
ago; Tunniclif1 Tavern, South
east, and High Street Coffey
House. Georgetown.
This exhibition should make
converts to the cause of pre-
serving the best of the old
buildings which remain in
Washington. and which speak
of earlier days in the most
direct and vivid way.

CRIME AND MYSTERY
By BETTY MILES

FANTASY AND FUGUE. BY
Roy Fuller. (The Macmillan
Co.: $2.750
In an original, well-written
book, Mr.. Fuller tells the story
of a man who is convinced he
is a murderer. The scene is
London and his hero's mind.
The question-who was the
victim? Harry Sinton, still
shattered by a nervous break
down. must know the truth.
His search for it makes for a
first rate suspense novel and a
perceptive study of a sick mind.

SMALL VENOM. BY William
Mole. (Dodd, Mead g. Co.;
$2.95.)
Casson collected human
oddities. He had to find the
man who blackmailed victims
only once for something they
had not done, man who adj
mired Roman sculpture. There
is no hero here. In his need to
dominate and destroy the
blackmailer he cultivates,
Casson is as corrupt as his
victim. The blackmailer-
murderer is a study in tortured
isolation. Mr.. Mole goes to the
head of the class.

it was easy for a twisted friend

in Cardiff.
A MANS ESTATE INC
Graw-Hill; $3.75) has much Of
the smoldering passion. the
suppressed violence that seems
to underlie the rigid conven-
tons of life in the small towns
ana countryside of Wales. The
quiet way in which the story is
told only adds to its dramatic
effect.
He Goes to Wales
This is the situation, in OUT
line. Philip, who has COM
pleted his medical course, but
wants to devote himself to re-
search is pathology. is engaged
to the daughter of his master
at the English college where he
is doing graduate work. The
master, a stuffy sort. disap-
proves because Philip has no
money and is unable to tell his
respective father-in-law much
about his family. Philip,
brought up by an aunt in
London, knows his mother and
stepfather are well-to-do
country people in Wales; that
his own father was a member
Of parliament, a man of bril-
liant prospects who died young.
He has always resented his
mother and not cared to know
her because she gave him away
when he was-a baby. But now
that he's in love and his girls
father is adamant, Philip feels
forced to find out about his
family and claim the Inherit
ance which he has coming. So
he goes to Wales.
Meanwhile. before he arrives.
we meet the chief characters
involved in the past and
present of Philips family.
There is Philips mother, a
domineering woman, always
conscious that she became the
wealthiest woman in the coun-
ty when she took over her
first husbands estate. Her
second husband, nearly blind,
is dour and pious, close to the
chapel where they worship and
trying to guide their young
minister. There is Hannah,
Philips aforementioned older
sister, a plain Spinster, bullied
by her mother and stepfather,
longing for a home of her own.
Family Skeletons
We find, as the story un-
folds, that the elderly couple,
beneath their piety and AFRO
gance, clutch a dread secret
which they hope died with
the person involved. We learn,
too, that Philips brilliant
father had a private life
which was kept hidden, and
we meet his illegitimate
daughter, Ada Evans. who is
to have a large part in events
past and ahead.
Mr.. HUMPHREYS has chosen a
difficult way to tell his story.
Each of several leading char
acters relates, in turn, his or
her impressions and recollec-
tions of pertinent episodes.
Thus we have frontstage, each
several times, Philip, Hannah.
Ada, and the frustrated cler-
gyman, who falls in love with
the ill-reputed Ada.
SkiIlful Writing
While this method Of writ
ing can easily become artificial,
unreal. Mr.. HUMPHREYS, with
his extraordinary skill, brings
it of. AS they tell their own
stories, these diverse persons
and those they describe draw
sympathy and understanding;
even the worst of them stir
pity.
Mr.. HUMPHREYS, like most
articulate Welshmen, has a
poetic feeling for the people
and the country. He contrives
to express this through his
characters with quiet poig-
nance.
"A Mans Estate" can be rec
commended without reservation
to those interested in serious
novels.

barrass the United States by
conducting himself like a poor
relation abroad?
The Government says it can.
But an opposite view is taken
by attorneys for Arthur j. Kraus,
who has been denied a passport
until he can satisfy State Secre-
tary Dulles that he has the
financial means to travel abroad
and return.
The question, believed unprec-

Since then, he has been carry

to interest the United Nations
Commission on Human Rights.
Mr.. Kraus admits much of the
time he has lived on relief in
this country and on handouts
from churches, organizations
and individuals while abroad.
In 1851, while he was in Costa

took away his passport on the
ground that his activities were

the consulate did not have the
