NEWS OF NEW I300K.S, WRITERS AND MAGAZINES JL 1 1 iiJ ENGLAND IS MORE DEMOCRATIC BECAU E OF WORLD CARNAGE Arthur Gleason Finds -Entire Empire Yieldingto Principle of. 'Broad-Minded Control, Inaido th British Islet, by Arthur Gleason. The Century Company. New York. $2.00 net. Itv his new volume, Mr. Gleason. newspaper man and magazine writer, who has covered the European war from different angles, .surveys the conditions prevalent In Great Britain today and prophecies the social, eco nomic and political situations prob able at the conclusion of the war. He analyzes the effect of war upon those problems which have occupied BTitish attention during- the past century labor unrest, the feminist movement Irish nationalism and outlines the or der of reconstruction in finance, ma chinery, religion, literature, and edu cation. Mr. Gleason believes that the war has not crushed the spirit of democ racy. Never before," he declares, "have I seen the 'subject' act with so much initiative and I have never heard him express himself so -vigor ously." It has. instead, widened the principle of democratic control to em brace the entire empire, reducinp Eng land herself to the position of an equal among equals'. Oa th Irish Question Mr. Gleason naturally has consid erable to say on the Irish problem "To talk about Ireland," he writes "and omit Ulster is to construct an Algebra by omitting 'x.' A portion of Ulster is resolutely determined to stay outside Irish self-government. This section Is friendly to England, is In favor of British rule in Ireland, is Protestant, and is industrially a powerful community. "A farcical skit was 'recently pro duced at the Abbey theatre in Dublin, called 'Partition.' It shows a house lying exactly on the border line of l lhter and Lelnster, so that one haK the house is Th each province.

Where Division Com , "Andy Kelly, who lives in the house, shifts his furniture to the Ulster side . when the home rule bailiffs' come to sell him up. When both sets of bailiffs come, he draws a chalk mark, and piles his household stuff In the center of the room. A fine scrap breaks out between the representatives of the two governments. Andy's summary of the situation is- this: " 'I'm a Siamese twin. I'm a sort of a two in wan, an' now look here, It's the queerest thing what kind of a hole would ye be in if wan of the ft wins was to steal somethin" an maybe th' other lad as innocent as c baby, shure ye couldn't cut them In two an' ye' couldn't put both o' them in jail wid won o' them maybe provln' an .alibi.' "The play ends with 'General fight ing, furniture all over the place, women screaming. The village cornet player is heard in the distance play ing "A. Nation Once Again." ' As the curtain' falls', Andy says. 'Begobs, the Siamese twins will be kilt and buried in the wan coffin.'

No one has yet written any adequate appreciation of the possibilities of bad vere. The verse. I mean, that is composed at the crisis of life, on the mountain tops of exultation and in the Joylfss valley, by per- sons unskilled and ordinarily unpoetic. The verse that lsid- den away in vases and bureau 1 s drawers, never to be shown, and Sjf always produced In some mo- ment of vanity. ; Only a true poet could write a Just appreciation of bad verse; r and from his pen the words would come too much tainted with the implication of irony. The quality of bad verse is not 4 strained. It is written to ult nojriagazlne's policy. It is re- warded with no check. It is a st brave denying of reality; a if prayer that is its own answer. It is, to use Maeterlinck's phrase, "a making or invoking of winrrs" by creatures that creep on their bellies. .NOV BOOKS IN TI1E LIBRARY Follcwlnr ire smotif books recently added to tmtral t'ubllc llDrtry: Biography.
