News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, March 25 Time magazine,
whose great and brilliant owner, Henry
Luce, has not been able to clear it of its cells
of communism, although I hear authoritatively
he has" tried hard and succeeded to a consider
able extent, has attempted to corrupt my plea
for American art.
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. - -,
