HOLIDAY EXHIBIT PLANS AT LIBRARY : 0pem Dwember $ ad signed as an Aid o Public On Monday, December 3rd, the annual book exhibit will begin in the reference room of the New Britain library. This means that a selection from the recent books bought for the library are displayed in an easily accessible place so that the public may have some suggestions about buying booka for Christmas gifts, or any other purpose. There is such variety in subjects, so wide a choice in authors that it is hard to say which will have the greatest appeal, but here are a few which already have been noted by book critics. Two recent meetings, one here and the other in Hartford, prove there is an active interest in world peace and on this subject one outstanding book is “The Outlawry of War, a Con- structive Policy for World Peace, by Charles C. Morrison, who in his foreword makes the following state- aent; “If this book has any meyit at all, it will be found, I think, in four theses: one, that the problem of war must be disentangled from all other controversées, and, thus isolated, brought directly before the na- tions for a yes or no decision; a second, that war is an institution— legal, established, sanctified, and supreme; a third, that it can be abolished only by disestablishing it, by casting it out of the legal system of the nations in which it is en- trenched; and the fourth, that its di: establishment can be made effective only by establishing in its place an institution of peace conceived not under political but under juridical categories. This can be done enly by a baslc change in international law. A general treaty renouncing war as a means of settling international dis- putes would crystallize in legal form the moral will of the civilized peo- ples of the world.” Another useful volume on the subject comes from the pen of Florence B. Boeckel, “Between War and Peace, a Hand- book for Peace Workers™” and con. tains the text of the much discussed “multilateral treaty.” Beside these may be considered such commentaries on this present world as “The Scientific World View” by Willlam Kay Wallace; “Recent Guins in American Civiliza- tion,” edited by Kirby Page, with contributions from John Dewey, Dr. IFosdick, Stuart Chase, Kent and others; “The New Moralty” by Durant Drake who de. fines his subject as “basing itself upon observation of the results of conduct and consciously aiming to secure the maximum of attainable happiness for mankind;" “The Treason of the Intellectuals” trans- lated from the French of Julien Benda; “Living India” by 8Savel Zimand, to which “A’ E” has written a preface saying "I do not know of any country which has such heights and such depths in its history, I have no doubt out of the ferment in India today will come a new renaissance.”” Another notable com- mentator upon the peoples of the east is that beloved physician, now Sir Wilfrid Grenfell, who has writ. fen “Labrador Looks at the Orient.” Then we have recently received the seaond volume of Oswald Spengler's “Decline of the West; Perspectives ot World History." Biographies and personal recol. lections fall from the presses as fast as autumn leaves in a high wind. Among many of equal, or greater, interest one may note a “Life of Moses” translated from the French of Edmond Fleg whose attitude 1s thus expressed in a brief introduc- tion, “In the creative memory of Israel the Biblical Moses lives on, transfigured by a tradition rich in wonderful legends. Whilst critical exegesis, tracing back myths and rites to their supposed origins, ‘would lead us to a primitive, savage Moses, wholly allen to our world of today, the religious, moral, postical and satiricati exegesis of our Rabbis Life carefully planned for next ten years Keeps eye always on higher office SK any of the boyswho've made good and they'll tell you it didn’t just hap- :: by a lucky ak.

Doubtless the real life of Moses will never be known scientifically: but is not this life, as Israel has imag- ined it, interpreted it, and felt it through the ages, also history? And | is this history~ended? Has not Is rael the right still te prolong it? John Cournos, that product of Rus- sia, the United 8tates and England, has given us a readahle book called “A modern Plutarch: an account of some great lives in the 13th cen- tury.” For those who enjoy discussion of various matters flavored with the author's personal views there are Paul Rosenfeld's “By way of art: criticisms of music, literature, paint- ing sculpture and the dance;" Booth Tarkington's “The world does move;” Rebecca West's “Strang> necessity.” Since New Britain is to have a chapter of the Drama league many will be glad to know that the li- brary is adding to its collection “Annals of the New York stage” by George O'Dell; “Playwriting for profit” by Arthur Krows; “Plays. players, playhouses” by Irma Kraft; “Stage decoration” by Sheldon | Cheney: and the autobiography of the veteran actress, Mrs. Thomas Whiffen, which she gaily calls “Keeping off the shelf.” Two books which are sure to attract some of our older boys and young men are “Engines” by E. N, da C. Andrade| who frankly says “the variety of| engines which are at work around us today is so great that it may| seem surprising that there are any| rules which they must all obey.!

Editorials expressed admiration for the skill of the commander whose fleet in. flicted grievous losses on the British in the historic engagement. Early Beatty, who as a vice ad. miral commanded a section of the British fleet, telegraphed the Daily Express this message: “I greatly regret to hear of the death of Admiral Scheer. He was & great sailor and a bold and skilful tactician.” 1 The British admiralty sent condo- lences to the German admiralty.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, HAS BEEN RULER FOR SEVENTY VEARS Prince of Liechtenstein Today Is Oldest Monarch Washington, D. C., Nov. 27—Little | Liechtenstein hails Geod Prince Johann Il as he attains the seven- tieth year of his reign. If he lives two years more he will equal the phenomenal record of Louis XIV of France. Johann was ecrowned Prince of Liechtenstein the year Queen Vie- toria was proclaimed Empress of India and Minnesota was admitted to the Union. The Dred Bcott decision Was a fresh political issue. Abra- Lam Lincoln was still a lawyer in | Springfield, 111 ,Little Change In 70 Years “Seventy years that have seen (he | transformation of the world have | Wwitnessed relatively little change in the Principality of Liechtenstein | tucked away between Switzerland and Austria in a mountain valley near the source of the Rhine.” says ta bulletin from the Washington, D. C. headquarters of the National Geo- graphic society. “The standing army of 80 men hurried off in 1866 to the Austro- Prussian War but got to the front | too late to fight. An army that can't find a battle ought to hunt |other Work, Prince Johann decided. He ordered his infantry to turn in their equipment. The muskets and | |leather helmets of the late Liech- | tenstein ariny can be seen today in |the royal chateau museum. De- mobilization was prcbably the Prince’s first important reform. “Of course electricity has come to | Liechtenstein. The Rhine rushing | along the national border gives up its energy to light the towns, operatic telephones and run the ele. vator which has been built into the massive walls of the ancient Burg Vaduz fortress-palace. Prince Johann at 88 finds an elevator useful. “Movies” Once 8 Week “When weekly movies first flick- ered at Vaduz, all Liechtenstein rocked with the news. The coming ot a cotton weaving factory to Triesen could L@ considercd equiva- lent to the rise of steel at Pittsburgh and of automobiles at Detroit. Yet dairying with mild-eyed 8wiss cattle remains the basic industry. Liech- tenstciners are farmers even unto many generations. “Prince Johann crossing {rom one side of his tower room to the other |can look upon most of his Graus- {tarkian domain.
