A very large order for a

guided by the resourceful Miss

muddles through in splendid
style.
Miss Du Maurier Is a very
old hand at this sort Of thing.
She is not, however, quite up
to snuff here. The story, for
all its INTERVIEWING ingenuities,
lacks emotional focus. The dia-
logue is Internationally British
all the way: and the action is
bit sluggish, the atmosphere
a bit sombre for full enjoy
ment. The discovery of the
character of the count by the
counterfeiting Englishman is
the most suspense and that is
not too satisfactorily resolved.

a smashing picture, though.

is something some who know
Spain undoubtedly will answer.
Mr.. Wright long ago de-
nounced communism. But he
obviously remains a militant
left-wing liberal and appar-
emily he went to Spain to find
certain things and found
them.
He found great poverty. He
gathered evidence that the
people are oppressed. held
down. denied a voice by the
French government. He blames
the Catholic Church for al
legedly abetting France 10 his
dictatorship.
He quotes a fruit grower,
who was not allowed to sell his
trees or export his oranges:
And they talk Of the evils of
communism! This is commu-
nism. / live in a religious Com
muniSt state
A Thriving Business
Mr.. Wright insists that pros
titution is one of the biggest
professions in Spain. He en-
countered an American white
SLAYER who was exporting girls
to North Africa. He met girls
who were eager to go.
Mr.. Wright concluded that
"the naked African in the push
would make greater progress
during the next so years than
the proud, tradition-bound
Spaniard."
SPANS religion. he feels, is
largely pagan. The fact was:
Spain was not yet even Chris
tan! 1t had never been con-
verted. not to Professionalism.
not even to Catholicism itself.
Somehow the pagan streams
of influence flowing from the
Goths, the Greeks. the Jews.
the Romans, the Iberians and
the Moors fingered strongly
and vitality on, flourishing I'M
der the draperies Of the goth
century"
A Sacred Aura
In Spain, he found there was
no lay, no secular life. Spain
was a holy nation. a sacred
state-a state as sacred and as
irrational as the sacred state
Of Akan in the African jungle.
Even the prostitution, the
corruption, the politics had
about them a sacred aura. All
was religion in Spain"
Mr.. Wright's patent bias
and prejudice weaken all his
findings.

Gertrude Stein
Sits for Study
In Full Length

GERTRUDE STEIN. Her Life
and Work. BY Elizabeth
Sprigge. Harper e. Bros;
So
This first full-length biog-
raphy of Gertrude Stein may
not convert anybody to a rev
appreciation of her bathing
prose. This doubtless will con-
tlnue to remind some readers
Of the sound of car wheels
spinning in a snowdriTt or the
marvellous banalities of Mrs.
Roosevelt. But her biographer
does. by explaining Miss Stein.
cast light on the great rever-
ence she evoked from other
writers. who mercifully did not
initiate her.
Il always wanted 10 be his
torical. from almost a baby
on" Miss Stein once said
straightforward for once. She
got her wish. She may go
down in literary history as a
freak. but she will go down.
She deserves to. If not for
what she wrote. for what she
was. Miss Stein was a formid-
able personality. With her
cropped head. commanding
girth. her laugh like thunder.
her consuming interest in
people. her monumental
whims, she enthralled people
and when they bored her.
she kicked them out. And she
had that imperturbable con-
fidence in her own genius
ceaselessly bolstered by the
ubiquitous Alice B. Toklas--
that is of unreasonable value
for those who wish 10 be his
torical.
Background Sketched in
Miss Sprigge sketches in
Miss STEMS background--her
German Jewish bourgeois fam
fly. her happy California child
hood, her brilliance as a stu
dent at Radcliffe and later at
Johns Hopkins, her removal
to and almost lifelong expa-
triate life in France. Through
1t all she never lost her zest
for living. From the early days
in Paris, when she and her
brother Lee began collecting
art and artists, all through
the years until G.I.s in World
War II discovered her with
wild surmise, she exerted a
magnetism that is equaled in
literary circles only by another
unimitated innovator. Ezra
Pound. Ernest Hemingway was
her first, but by no means
her last, pupil. She was a good
forceful critic.
Gertrude Of course never
conceded that her celebrity
