By Charles Aydelette (United Press Correspondent) Carmel. Calif. 0J.R) War has changed this quaint artistic community, founded In the early 1000 1 by a group of San Fran cisco artists as a retreat where they might develop undisturbed their talents and idiosyncracles. Artists no longer wander aim lessly and bemused along the beach or rocky cliffs of the col ony, for today-army trucks roar up Ocean avenue. War had left Carmel norma) before the attack on Pearl Har bor last year normal by Car- mel's standards, that is, for the colony's Ideas -always have ap peared a bit unconventional to the outside world. Now. "war has revolutionized Carmel spiritually more than anything since it was founded in the early 1900's," comments Mrs. Elizabeth Cass, curator of the Carmel Art Association Gal leries. Many artists have left or are leaving, some for the army. The older group, which was the backbone of the colony, is spiritually depressed. Denied the freedom of the sea coast be cause of military restrictions, the artists have left in discour agement or turned their ener gies to the reality of civilian defense or military work. Work as Camoufleura This Is the chief change in the community from an escapist's refuge it has become a town of reality. Paul Whitman, former presi dent of the Carmel Art associa tion, and Sam Colburn have been called to San Francisco as civilian camouflage workers with the U. S. engineers. Hoy den Martin is doing camouflage work at Fort Ord, following his recent return from similar acti vity In Florida. John Cunningham now Is with the merchant marine; Adrian Beach and Martin Gam bee have been inducted into the army; Garth Jeffers, son of the poet Robinson Jeffers is in the army. Arthur Hill Gilbert, William Ritschel, John O'Shea and My- ron Oliver, the latter now pre sident of the art association, are active in civilian defense. Armln Hanson, . member of the National academy, and Paul Mays, noted for Monterey Bay fishing and marine scenes, have stopped painting because cen sorship prevents using those subjects. Dr. Mary Levick retired here to paint but the shortage of physicians forced her to aban don art. to return to medical practice. No Market For Paintings Another deterrent to art is the fact that no one is buying works at the present time. Ferdinand Burgdorff, working on a civilian Job at Fort Ord, is giving away his oil paintings to worthy persons in absence of a good market The war has had little influ ence on art itself, local art as sociation leaders report There are few new paintings, and shows which are held contain the same works as a year ago. There are some bright aspect In the picture. This is furnished by the sol diers and service men them selves. An example was the July show arranged by Carol Stein- Mats 1:41 40c-t5e-lle Ine.

The show drew hundreds to see the work of soldiers in near-by camps and many paint ings were sold. The soldiers' work shows freshness and charm, but also nostalgia for civilian life. Camp and military scenes are subor dinated to familiar home scenes of the Midwest or New England, Scores of soldiers attend the adult education art classes taught by Mrs. Pat Cunningham, despite the fact that the service men never know how soon they will be ordered elsewhere. 'Tone Cypress" Censored The federal art and national defense project has been strongly supported here. The war also has brought some refugees of note and abil ity here. Among them are Abel warshowsky and Mr. and Mrs. Martin Baer, who were bombed out of France. Many are the brief visits of artists who come here to seek rest and peace after tne horrors of war. Another "beneficial" result of the war has been the censorship of "Lone Cypress," much paint ed and standard scene on the Peninsula. Declared the most photographed and painted sub ject in the world, the cypress has been eliminated for the du ration which Carmelites pri vately agree is a good thing. Larmel has welcomed soldiers wholeheartedly at the USO, at private homes, and at public functions. Daughters of wealthy Pebble Beach residents and Car mel tradesmen entertain simul taneously. Carmel has changed, and old- timers who are left sometimes sigh for the peace of pre-war Iso lation and wonder whether the conditions will return to Car-mel-by-the-Sea after the conflict. The war situation has com pelled Great Britain to expand the home-grown production of lumber five to eight times be yond normal capacity, and, in stead of small quantities, more than a billion board feet of lum ber is now derived from her for ests.
