The general verdict seems to be that the decisions were pretty bad worse than the books. Chief among changed opinions Is the dwindling respect for the Oon court prize, which Is rapidly going the way of the French Academy award which once was an author's great ambition, but now It has come to be considered almost a demerit, as marking a writer with the brand of stuffiness and ultra-conservatism. The Ooncourt prlre had elbowed the Academy prize out of first place In popular consideration, but In the last few years there has been a feeling that it la likely to go to the year's second or third best book Instead of the first, and this year's choice seems to have confirmed that idea. Humorists In the last few years have suggested regularly that In view of the Increasing number of prizes, all of which are followed by heavy advertising for the winners, that some publisher should advertise a book that hasn't won a prize. If he can find one. The Nouvelle Revue Pri acalse la doing Just about that by advertising that "Le Sang Nolr" by Louis Oullloux did not win the Oon court prize. The advertisement quotes two reviews written before the award, one by Henry Bldou of the Journal des Debate which reads: "It Is evident that the book of M. Gull louz Is superior to the others . . . That le no reason for it to win the Ooncourt prize," and the other by Andre Billy In Oeuvre: "An authentic descendant of Velles and Dostoievsky . . . It would be surprising If this book takes the Oon xurt prize." Be low the publishers add, "And as a matter of fact 'Le Sang Nolr' did not win the Ooncourt prize." Le Sang Nolr took only one vote against Joseph Peyre's "Song et Lumleres," a bullfight novel which would have been more startling If It had preceded lbs nee "Blood and Sand" and Hemingway's "Death In the Afternoon" Instead of following them. Four votes went to Maxence Van der Meersch's "Invasion 14," a long and powerful novel of the Oer man Invasion of Flanders, which most commentators considered better than either the winning book or "Le Sang Nolr." Van der Meersch, who at the age of 28 has six excellent books to his credit, drew upon his own youthful experiences In the( Invaded region, produced a volume which Is calculat ed to be displeasing to academicians bfcause it presents human beings aa MEETING THE BANKING NEEDS of TODAY Over 70 years of experience in facing and solving business and financial problems in Oregon have equipped the First National Bank of Portland with unique facilities for meeting every banking need of today.

In which Powell Is co-starred with Ruby Keeler In a story of Annapolis. Glamorous sequences have been taken, with the Academy as a back ground, the film company having spent more than a month at An napolis to get the real setting. Other dramatic sequences were "shot" on board the V.SJB. Pennsylvania, flag ship of the Pacific fleet, under the technical d traction of naval officers. often motivated by reasons far from noble. An exceedingly unjust review In the staid conservative . Temps, whose reviews have lapsed consider ably since the days when Salnt B?uve waa succeeded by Anatole France In the critical chair of that Journal, probably glvea away the secret of the academicians' disappro val by berating Van der Meersch for the Zola-esque quality of many of his personages, expresses disappoint ment because the author has chosen to use everyday (the Temps says dis dainfully "Journalistic") language In stead of Indulging in decorative liter ary window-dressing, and. after giv ing grudging approval to the strength and poignancy of many of the auth or'a chapters, manages nevertheless to conclude, after devoting to It a fat column of type, that It haa no liter ary value whatever. Another suggestion to explain the Ooncourt award la that It Is Just as well for the intending candidate not to be too Left in M politics. The Femlna prize used to run the Ooncourt a close second, and In their desire to get first chance, the women for a year or two, with typical femi nine guile, held their election one day before the Ooncourt academy. This annoyed authors, who didn't like to lose their chance at the prestige of the Ooncourt prize by winning the Femlna, and so the women have now reverted to second place, and the choice of a woman writer If possible. This year "Benediction" by Claude Silve won. a work described by the critics aa typical feminine as well aa a piece of good embroidery, but no more exciting. There is less difference of opinion concerning the Theophrast Renau dot prize, awarded by the Journalists covering the Ooncourt prize meeting for the best book of reporting. It went to Francois de Roux, a com parative newcomer, for Jours sans Ololre. f- FRESH BLAST ON Ei (Continued mou Page One.) sharply in the path of a storm due to cut over Wyoming, northeastern Colorado, most of Kansas, north eastern Oklahoma.
