"With or without offense to friends or foes
I sketch your world exactly as it goes.
Byron
Leutze's Masterpiece
Forced by sharp newspaper criticism, the Metropolitan
lUuseum of Art in New York has agreed to take from the
oblivion of its basement, where it has hung in obscurity for
several decades, the famous picture of Washington Cross
ing the Delaware" which was a familiar feature of school
and other histories of the past several generations, and re
produced in millions of colored chromos, but objects to rev
hanging it, and has offered to present it to the state of
Washington to adorn the new capitol and in all likelihood
the gift will be gratefully accepted.
The newspaper criticism protested the concealment
during Washington's bicentennial year of the best known
painting of the "Father of his Country" except perhaps
Stuart's' portrait. The art museum's objection is that the
painting is an historical fake and inartistic, that Washing
ton never stood up posing in an overloaded skiff smashing
floating ice, for it was an impossible feat, that he did not
wear dress uniform, that it shows him wearing the sword
On the wrong side, while the flag flown wasn't adopted at the
time, and numerous other deficiencies. Yet it is no more
historically nor artistically inaccurate than most of the
Washington biographies depicting him as a goody-goody
boy and gentle sissy in high office. It fits in well with the
legendary Washington cannnnized by a grateful posterity.
The painting is the work of Emanuel Leutze, the Ger-tnan-American
artist who was commissioned to paint "West
ward the Star of Empire takes it Way" for the capitol at
Washington. Among his other well known historical paint
ings are "Columbus before the Council at Salamanca",
"Cromwell visiting Milton", etc. The original of "Washing
ton Crossing the Delaware" hangs in the Kunsthalle at Bre
men, the copy in dispute being made by Leutze a year later
for American exhibition.
Whatever its artistic and historical deficiencies, the
painting has life and action and commemorates a crucial
crisis in the Revolutionary war. We expect some artistic
leaway in such portraiture, for photography was not invent
ed at the time. And it was accepted by several generations
tf Americana as a triumph in art. At any rate we have
no work of latter day artists as inspii tional either in subject
or acnievcmeiu.
The painting 12& feet by 25, without frame, is ad
mirably adapted for the Olympia capital, for it is certainly
more artistic than this huge hodge-podge of architecture
and art. The gaudy capitol combines the features of Egyp
tian tombs, Greek temples, and Byzantine mausoleum mo
saics with ponderous Roman effect. Probably no building
in the world contains as much waste space, or as many mas
aive and needless entrances and stairways, unless it be some
of the monuments left by our bonanza kings. Its bizarre
furnishings complete the impression of the nouveau riche
as becomes a state of lumber barons. There is nothing else
American about it and the Washington painting is needed
to add an historical and artistic touch of the United States.
Federal Relief
Despite the president's recommendation to the contrary
nd the depleted state of the treasury, one of the senate
committees has favorably recommended an appropriation of
f375,000,000 for direct federal relief for the unemployed. -
If the nation were confronted with a situation where
only the empty federal treasury stood between millions of
people and starvation, such an appropriation would be jus
tifiable, even if we had to mortgage the future still more
heavily for the present. But this situation does not exist,
for neither individuals nor the local units of government
have exhausted their resources. And they have not because,
in all parts of the country, the belief that Uncle Sam would
come to rescue has prevented public officials and private
citizens from putting their own houses in order
Take it in Oregon. What, has our own state done to
provide either work for the unemployed or relief for the des
titute? Nothing beyond issuing a million in highway bonds
for costly emergency construction that spells waste of
money, thus throwing the whole burden upon one class of
taxpayers, and that already the most mulcted, the auto own
er. And the amount is entirely inadequate. What has
Marion county done? Nothing except to cooperate with the
state in spending the motorists' coin. What has the city of
Salem done? Absolutely nothing, not a cent expended. And
it is the same all over the land.
All that has been done is by community chests and
chanty organizations financed by meager contributions
from about five percent of the people. When the states, the
counties, the cities, and private individuals cease to shirk
and exhaust their resources, it will be time to call on the
federal government to -help out. That time is not yet.
It is true it is said that the federal government docs not
hesitate to come to the aid of the bankers with the credit
corcorporation. But infinitely more people are dependent on
the proper working of the private credit system and private
initiative than can possibly be looked after Aiy either a fed
eral building program or relief doles. It is certainly sound
logic to try to reassure and reinvigorate private enterprise,
if possible, first.
DRAMA STARTS

engaged in making "Fifty Fathoms
Deep," the Columbia drama of deep
sea adventure showing Friday and
Saturday at the Warner Bros. Cap
itol theater.
This may seem like a lot of weight
for a man to carry around, but it
is only clumsy and heavy while the i
diver Is above water. As soon as he
gets under water the weight becomes
more buoyant and the diver Is as
unconscious of his equipment as he
Is of his ordinary clothes.
The diving adventures form the
background for an unusual love

Man Who's Balking
She Is 33; he Is 27. He Is atten
tive, in his own fashion. He claims
he cannot afford marriage. HU in

She tries the old gag of telling with
a sigh now tier girl friends are be

sponds: "Any one who Is foolish
enough to do that might just as
well commit suicide."
Breaking down the man's mar
riage resistance Is the long (or
short) road ahead for "Betty. I'd
predict short, in this instance. I
base my premise on the outspoken
declarations, it's when a man is

Mr. 27, lie is surely riding for a

Men argue with themselves. Out
loud. The wise young woman ven
tures no retort. Just lets the steam
blow off and gets In her very best
licks between outbursts.
The rule In these relationships, I
might say In all romantic relation
ships, Is not to take every declara
tion as linai. Not to attach too
serious import to every statement
made. Let actions, be the guide.
When a man comes calling twice a

has no other girl on the string, well.
