Continuing today with Madame
Tussaud and her world famous
waxworks museum, this question
occurs: How did she set her start
It's a grim story. It begins with
the French Revolution, when
'heads rolled in the streets like
balls on a bowling green" as the
guillotine chopped away day after
grisly job of eliminating the hated
aristocracy of France.
At first, it was enough just loito set ourselves up as poetry
chop off the heads and watch them
roll. Then, gradually, as the blood
lust was sated by the sight of roll
ing heads and flowing rivers of
blood that coursed down the gut
ters like water after a heavy ruin.

The was a young woman of about'0'' month.. Much objection has been raised to transfer of
17. She had already achieved some lie area to the National Park Service, as Sen. Neuberger
fame as a sculptor in wax. So she
was employed to make wax fig-
ures of the more prominent among
those who have been executed.
Included in the London collection
is a iisure of herself working
from the model of a decapitated I
head. It isn I a pleasant sight, the
head lies on the table bvlore ner,
as she studies the features of her
subject. The neck is severed clean
ly from the body by the razor
sharp guillotine, and blood pours
from it in a ghastly stream.
One doesn't spend much time
looking at it. But even a fleeting
glance leaves you with a queasy
feeling in the region of the stomach.
Anyway, the job made Madame
Tussaud famous, and the realism
of her work . suggested to her the
idea of a historical museum con
taining figures of the great of the
world. So she moved to London,
and tackled, the job of creating
the museum she had envisioned
and peopling il with the earth's
greats. i
When she died, her project was
carried on by her pupils.
Perhaps the greatest single ex
hibit, in a fabulous assembly of
exhibits, is the Hall of Kings. Start
ing with William the Conqueror,
every ruler of Kngland since Duke
William is depicted. In all of them
she achieved the startling illusion
of living, breathing reality that has
already been described in these
sketches. As you stand before
them, you simply can't escape the
feeling that you are standing in
the actual presence of these kings
and queens, it is an eerie sensa
tion. II is also a splendid history les
son. Standing in the company of
these makers of English history,
you seem to be LIVING in your
own person the history of our English-speaking
part of the world.
It is uncanny,
So much for the greats of the
world of the past many of whom
were contemporaneous with Mine.
Tussaud herself. These are REAL.
They LIVE before your eyes. They
seem to breathe. You expect them
to SPEAK.
Then-
You move on to another group.
11 is entitled American Presidents
and Statesmen. These came AFT
ER Mine. Tussaud' time. Some
how, they seem LESS real. George
Washington is the most lifelike. He
also seems about to speak to you.
William Penn is a living character.
But President Lincoln lacks some
thing that is PRESENT in the stat
ue of him in the Lincoln Memorial
in Washington.
Hoover, Eisenhower, Truman
men who are still alive, men we
have all seen, in person or on TV
seem LESS real. FDR doesn't
quite come up to living, breathing
reality. President Kennedy is al
ready in the American group. He
is recognizable, hut he also doesn't
socm to BREATHE.
That shakes you a little
Then, just as you begin to feci
the clutch of the cold fingers of
disillusion you slop before the fig
ure of Joan of Arc. In her gleam
ing armor, with one hand holding
the standard with the lilies of
France, the other hand on the hilt
of her sword, the lovely and dedi
cated face looking out from the
opened visor of her helmet, ue
is the LIVING Maid nf Orleans.
Suddenly, you BELIEVE the un-
helievablc story of her life and
deeds. II was Mine. Tussaud her
self who created that figure. No
understudy had a hand in it. All
of a sudden you KNOW that Ibis

IT MUST BE SPRING!
. By Charles V. Stanton
It must be spring! Poets are at large !
Although The. Neim-Utriem hasn't used poetry in its
columns for 20 years, the editorial desk suddenly has been
swamped tinder a tide of poetry good and bad.
And that "good and bad" situation is one reason we
don't use poetry. ,
I must make, admission that I'm allergic. It's hard
enough to put things into decent Kngljsh prose, it seems
to me, without trying to couch ideas in rhyme.
But that isn't the chief reason behind our policy.
Some years ago we ran a Poet's Corner in this news
paper. Those were days when we had much more avail
able space. Poets from far and near sent us their offer
ings. Some of it was very fine poetry. But we also re-
ceived some very horrible examples of what is commonly
called poetry

lions, possibly could accept the good and throw away the
poor. But here on The Xeirs-lleview we are not just about
to tell anyone he can't write
the good, we must be critics, and thereby risk the ire of
proud authors. Consequently we publish none. That way
we can get everyone sore at us!

tion and conservation area. It would not include the pri
vately owned lands, but would put publicly controlled lands
tinder management of the U.S. Forest Service. More than
87 per cent of the ocean beaches already are in National
Forest ownership, Durno says.
He reports that the Forest Service has prepared a de
velopment plan to carry out the purposes of the bill. H
would provide 57 additional camp and picnic sites, 18
swimming sites, 10 boating sites, four recreational service
centers, 32 miles of road and 25 miles of trail. Dune
stabilization and wildlife habitat improvement is planned
for 5,702- acres. The cost would be around ?6 million to
be spent over a 10-year period.
We may1 anticipate that considerable controversy will
result between proponents on each side of the project.
THE GOOD OU DAYS
A recent bulletin from the National Association of
Manufacturers says there seems to be a "longing for the
Great Depression of the 19"0r" in the program of our na
tional government. The NAM has long been critical of the
"liberal" political program. Now, it says, the proposals
concerning the New Frontier may be described as moving
"forward" to 1032.
It tells of plans for reviving a program similar to the
old PWA of depression days, grants to local governments
for public utilities, youth camps, pump priming, etc., and
says: "Most of us are happy that (he 19.10 are history, and
cannot share this odd nostalgia for those great days of
bureaucratic supremacy.
While the NAM often takes what I believe to be an
exaggerated view of political
national administration hasn't
constantly pressing the "panic
often described.
