In the art section of its issue of February 25 it said I was a "Hearstling," whatever that is, and deceived its vast public as to what my plea was. The "Hearstling" idea is a timeworn tid bit of the communists which has deceived its public for years. The facts have long been well known in the newspaper world. I had 400 clients in my business before leasing my column to King Features syndicate and now I have 300. My syndicate has never advised, asked or in vited me to write anything, and makes money from me not me from it. My money comes from the great bulk of above 290 newspapers throughout America, aside from the Hearst newspapers. All Hearst papers do not buy it. My independent position is well established and known. Time-Worn Device THE device used for concealment of my idea by deception was similarly time-worn. In condensing Quotations of mine, Time omitted ; the quotations which would have proved my point and published quotations which seemed selected to make me ridiculous and the idea obscure. My idea was that much so-called modern art is psychologically communistic and the basic point I had used to prove it was that it lacks beauty. This, basic proof Time omitted entirely. I think I can prove both my idea and the point to any fair-minded intelligent person who possesses even a visual knowledge of art. Say an artist paints a few lines on canvas. These are curved, straight or irregular, but have no recognizable substance. An average person looking at them cannot say what they are. Of itself, such a picture has no beauty. Its lines are not arranged in a way to appeal to our sense of beauty. It lacks appealing sub stance or design. The colors are not selected to appeal to our sense of color rhythm either, but may look like an unwashed pallet. No appeal, visual beauty, rhythm or any other sense is made by this form of art. To understand why they have it hanging around and are selling it for big sums, you must be fool enough to try to imagine what the artist thought he was conceiving, if he had any thoughts. This is the secret of that form of art. You must enter a realm of thought control, of thought enslavement, away from your natural inclinations, in order to "appreciate" it by' which word I mean be duped by it. Same Essence As Communism IS my point, not valid that this is of the same essence as communism, the same method of thought-controlled art transferred to politics? It requires its subjects to enter a realm of Imagination to conceive beauties it cannot pre sent visibly. The Russian standard of living was the lowest of the western world after 20 years of communism before the war. It can--not present any visible facts of superior results. It cannot appeal to reason for natural senses. -It does not occupy the plane of reason, or seek it. You must enter a realm of thought-control or thought-enslavement beyond- the natural senses to imagine a non-existant beauty. Communism is political cubism,- non-objectivity, sur-rcalism in its philosophical essense and therefor in truth.' ; v , , Contrast this with the inspiration of Amer ican art rooted in hundreds of years to, con-, ccpts of naturalists and reason. It is an ex pression of our world philosophy of the free, dom of the individual human being. Now, my purpose in bringing the matter up for analysis in the first place, was to promote an understanding of our own art as measured not only against the inclplcntly communist pro duce of the imagination, but against the art of our own realm of history, particularly European art which has been thought to be superior to ours although I do not think it is.- I believe exhibits of our art should be promoted on a wider and more understanding scale, and that in every way possible its great quality should be stressed to the American people. South Road Story Editor's Note: Another Installment of the South Road exploration story as related by Lindsay Applegate to rela tives about M years ago. The 186 party, after traveling through the Klamath area, has now reached the Clear lake region southeast of here. I I L. Applegate By ELIZABETH BUTLER LOOSLEY ".' I LWAYS keeping the timbered butte, Blue mountain, as a landmark, we traveled so far back on the ridge we missed seeing Langell valley and Clear lake. Again we struck Lost river almost where it leaves Clear lake.- Next day the same character of country confront ed us but we were now at the foot of our landmark, Blue mountain. The following day we passed it and went oast over level but very stony ground; found another creek. Willow creek, traveling over level ground but rough: (he rocks were solid formation. . "That afternoon we came to Goose lake; made camp, killed a deer. Many streams fed into the lake from a mountain spur which we concluded were the Sierra Nevadas. Southeast of our location was a pass in the mountains, as we had hoped, and next day we went through this pass. It is the famous Fandango Pass; later a massacre of a whole train took place here. When the train was celebrating with a dance, the Spanish fandango, the savages . rushed in and killed every member of the party. It has been said a woman escaped." Eyes bulging, Frank demanded; "Tell it to us, grandfather." "Some other time, Frank, it's getting near your bedtime." Aunt Ella passed big red apples that were now grown in the famous Rogue River valley that Lindsay Applegate had been telling about having passed through. As Lindsay Applegate carefully pared his apple, he talked: "Jesse, who was always making sketches and maps, said, 'The Sierra ridge divides the waters of the Pacific slope from the slope of the Blue mountains far to the south in the direction of the Colorado. "We camped on a stream later named for Peter Lassen (who in 1848 led a party of emi grants across the plains, over our route down the Humboldt, then down Pitt river and the Sacramento to the town by that name.) We enjoyed the wild plums, grass and good water and antelope fed within sight of us. "From the summit we could see Surprise val ley to the southeast of us. To the east we saw barren country through which ridges ran north and south. Soon we were in sandy soil, we mounted to tableland which was gravelly. Our horses had worn their shoes down paper-thin or lost them; they were footsore, fagged, there was no water for beast or man. We were ready to drop when we came to a small spring and by taking turns, by midnight the mounts and we were supplied. Sage brush was our fuel. A lone butte visible from Tulelake and not to be confused with the Blue mountains. - -, (To Be Continued) : SIDE GLANCES -25 CO ML H eNtA aiUVKt, INC. T. M. MB. 0. 1 VAT. Of.'
