A BOOK FOR TO-DAY
The Center in Latin America
BY DONALD MINTZ

LATIN AMERICA - d.
PLOMACY AND REALITY.

Foreign Relations by (Harper

There are those who seek
to avoid a direct confronta-
ton with communism in
Latin America. They would
have us confine our atten-
ton exclusively to those
dreadful and widely preva-
lent conditions which are
generally said to be the
breeding ground of COM
munism.
Then there are those who
wish to have a direct con-
formation as soon as pos
sible, are not much con-
cerned with social and &C.
nomic conditions, and are
generally opposed to mea-
Sures that tend to involve
the United States in the de-
velopment of other nations.
Both these attitudes are
simple and emotional. The
vast middle area between
them is inhabited by people
of widely varying political
views, though, of course, the
extremes are excluded. Their
position-or rather positions
are invariably difficult be-
cause they are reasoned,
pragmatic, and aimed toward
relatively limited and realiS-
tic goals.
1t is possible to maintain
an extreme position simply
by shouting. But the middle
positions must be defended
with integrated and analysed
facts. The sometimes hard
pressed men and women of
the rational center will be
delighted to have at their
disposal Adolf A. Berries
Latin America - Diplomacy
and Reality"
MR.. BERLE is a liberal
whose services in high places
as a Latin American special
iSt are we'll known. The
prospect of radical alterations
in the structure of our south
ern neighbor states does not
alarm him. Social change,
in the context of Latin Amer
ica," he writes, involves the
possibility, perhaps the prob
ability, that new governments
will be established by revo-
LUTON. These may do more
than merely change the ad-
ministration of the govern
ment. They may change it's
social system. We must antic-
pate that, in some coun-
tries, social systems will arise
or will be imposed wholly diff
ferent from those to which
we are accustomed"
This readiness to accept
change is coupled with a
total unreadiness to accept
any regime that threatens the
security Of the United States.

And extending for 200 feet out of one

The modernistic structure, soon to be

of Gettysburg National Military Park. AS
the visitors center, park headquarters, and
housing for the cyclorama all in one, it will
provide unprecedented facilities for the Is
million visitors who swarm to the scenic
and history-drenched Gettysburg country
side each year.
The long low portion of the building
may be ready for occupancy any day. The
cylindrical section, designed expressly for
hanging the celebrated O,OOO-square-foot
canvas depicting the battle, won't be ready
until July f. That is the date on which, 90
years ago, the North realized its troops had
decisively stopped Gen. Robert E. Lees
second and last invasion.

virtue of being centrally located. 1t stands
at midpoint between the "high-water markof
the Confederacy," Gen. George G. Meade's
headquarters and the National cemetery
which Abraham Lincoln dedicated with
small, reverberating speech in November,
1853.
When finally assembled, the building
will contain, aside from ample administra-
tive offices, all the needs for tourist crea-
ture comforts and guidance, and exhibits
that will thoroughly acquaint visitors with
details of the battle that was fought there.
The main lobby contains an infOrma-
ton desk, seats for the foOtsore, restrOoms
and drinking fountains, and dispatch cen
ter for the licensed guides who can be hired
by those shy of do-it-yourself battlefield
tour. A 2OOcapacity auditorium with re-
movable projection screen has been pro
vided to give visitors Commute slide lee
ture introducing the park and the battle
field story.
The screen end of the auditorium can
be rolled aside so that the auditorium
merges with the ground level of the rOtunda
to become continuous room. Glass panels
forming an exterior wall of the r0tunda can
be slid back so that an adjoining patio be-
comes part of the auditorium complex. The
arrangement will be useful for the many
heavily-attended ceremonies conducted at
the park each year.
Ranged around the rest of the rotunda

talks all the time, and
young Charlie, when he
comes and is q sort Of
catalyst for the dissolution
of the hatred. the despair,
the torture, the failure, the
obsession Of the three, talks
also. The whole book is one
great dialogue. In the
authors hands talk is genu-
inc, pungent, peculiarly ex-
pressive, and distinctive.
All Of these selr-crucified
characters win the readers
sympathy but none has the
stature to be really tragic.
The book may be an urban
"Wuthering Heights" but 1t
is a miniature one; the
Baineses are insignificant
compared to Heathcliff and
Cathy. None has the strength
either for action or for suf-
fering, and Charlie will
change nothing whether he
stays or goes-the final para
graph leaves the ending
ambiguous.
.
Two other highly regarded
novels Of Hanley are "The
Closed Harbour" (1952) and
"An End and q Beginning"
(195s). 1t is a mark Of Han
ley's originality that neither
is like Say Nothing" nor
like the other. The earlier
book, a grimly realistic story
Of q captain who, having lost
two ships, is forever denied
another command, and who
is wracked by the memory Of
his murder Of his own neph-
ew, is strongly reminiscent
Of Simenon at his very best.
The unbroken descent of
Marius into the black void
Of insanity, despised by his
own mother, pitied and un-
derstood by his fellows, but
distrusted by them also, is
a fall Of a giant, and its
inexorable terror is over
whelming.
"An End and a Begin
ming" Is a romance about a
man out Of prison after serv-
ing a 15-year sentence for
murder, who must reorient
himself to the remnants of
his family. The central epi-
sode is an agonizing affair
with his brothers wife,
through which we see the
histories Of man and woman
as they are alternately
imagined and remembered.
The book has been inaccu-
rately spoken Of as Dostoev-
skian, primarily, no doubt, be-
cause Of the murder Of an old
money-lender by an adoles-
cent. Nevertheless, the novel,
while in my opinion less
direct and less in command
Of its material than the other
two, is also an extraordinary
ly readable one. Who dis
covers Hanley in Say Moth
ing" and likes him can en-
joy the prospect Of con-
siderably more in bookstore
and library.

] six nOnlectures. BY e. e.
cummings. (Atheneum
Press Paperback; $1.25.)
The republication Of 81 six
nonlectures," by e.e. cum
mings, is a happy coincidence
with the sad death Of its
author. for Of all his books it
is the most personal, and
that 1t becomes his memorial
would appeal to his fine sense
Of the appropriate. Very few
writers make Holden Caul-
fields desire to call an au-
thor on the telephone seem
so real and true as Cum
mings does, for perhaps his
most enduring characteristic
is the sense Of the individual,
the breathing man, behind
every phrase he wrote. Artist
and person are inextricable.
How easily the man can be
misunderstood is evidenced
by the widespread belief that
he printed his name only in
lower-case letters. But he also
wrote "EECummings" and
Cor 81 Edward Estlin Cum
mings." 1t is not difficult to
: be able to misunderstood
Cummings when one is so
predisposed, when one resents
his attack or ordinariness and
complacency, otherwise the
sense is clear enough. You
may be antipathetic to
equality is what does not
exist among equals" but you
deny that it has meaning in
vain-what other possible
way could the semantic con-
fusion of equality" and
equals" be exposed? Again,
ian intelligent person fights
for lost causes, realizing
that others are merely ef-
fects." Such a sentence is
so precise that it defies para
phrasing. When speaking of
censorship Cummings casu-
ally mentions: II was re-

how the sense explodes with

A last example: Cummings
ends a delightful story about

which goodness means not

thing, not even accused Of
anything, but was thrown in
to a concentration camp.
Back in Boston. his father,
a professor and q Unitarian
clergyman, made every ef-
fort to have his whereabouts
discovered and to effect his
release. Finally. when an
American major telephoned
to say that he would get the
boy out but that his friend
Brown was no good, maybe a
spy, unpatriotic, and that
only Cummings would be
rescued. Cummings senior
replied: Don't bother" and
hung UP the telephone.
The torture, cruelty, sad
ism, the hopelessness and
the ignominy Of a concentra-
ton camp that have be-
come so familiar since the
last war are all In Cum
mings' book as he expe-
rienced them before return
ing home after three months
half dead with disease and
mistreatment. The unique
thing about THE Enormous
Room" (the great cell in
which the prisoners were in
carcerated) is that the young
man had resources within
himself to stand up against
the obliquity of society and
to view it all intellectually,
even happily. How good to
be free Of the stupidities Of
my Red Cross captain" he
would say to himself defiant
ly, and turn to his fellow
miserable prisoners with love
and understanding. He
could hate only one Of his
captors. a fiend he would
gladly have killed; his con-
tempt wasior what he named
lightly the government of
France" but what he well
knew was the government of
all the world.
To type out and reprint a
poem Of e. E. Cummings is a
pleasure, to select a good one
is easy, and to make a choice,
now, when an elegiac mood is
fitting, Is not hard. It has
no title:
