If the American people are con- fronted by a fact they don't like, observes Dr. Mann, they pass a law changing the fact, Only, facts can't be changed in reality, adds the doc- tor. is | This wasn’t a debate between Had- ley and Mann.

Zarh Pritchard, the American paint- er of submarine life, has been lead- ing a hermit’s life in Brazil for two months, painting for exhibitions at Paris and Brussels, the former open- ing June 1. He has been living on Paqu Island, in the middle of Rio's big harbor, an hour by ferry from the city. A house was rented in an unfrequented part of the is- land, and a chain and padlock placed on the garden gate. The island’ is quiet enough to satisfy his need for solitude. Although it contains a small village, there are no street cars, automobile or telephones. The submarine painter makes.;his sketches on specially oiled matetial while working Gnder water in avd! ing suit, generally at depthe of about 25 feet. Here the luminosity of the water is equal to daylight above the surface. The artist says he forgets about being under water as he sket- ches until he is warned by a tug on his air hose, by the watchers overhead, that there is dangér ip the nieghborhood. Big fish do not bo- ther him, as they are wary about the strange animal which is always emitting a stream of bubbles from the top of its head. Mr. Pritchard's paintings are. im- pressionistic studies, showing fish which often have the appearancé, of birds flying through the air. Living corals and sea plants of various tints appear to be trees and forests, and dead coral formations often resem- ble canyons and cathedrals. Mr, Pritchard came to Brazil ~ to prepare for the exhibitions. He has discovered that the climate here is unsurpassed for drying his paint- ings, which are made on calf skin to secure the peculiar effect resembling a watery atmosphere.
