UPI Telephoto Paintings Once Scorned By Teddy Roosevelt Now Art Masterpieces 'NEW YORK (UPI' - Teddy Roosevelt charged through the (Wth Regiment Armory shouting "That's not art! That's not art!" Teddy was never more wrong. The "art" that drove the for mer president to distraction was displayed in the revolutionary armory show of 1913, the first large-scale introduction of mod ern art to the United States. It inspired Teddy to write a rough liriing article in Outlook maga zine in which he blasted "lunatic fringe" painters of the post-impressionist, cubist and futurist schools. Marcel Duchamp's now-familiar "Nude Descending a Staircase" ART MASTERPIECE Marcel Duchamp's "Nude Descending A Staircase" was the symbol of all that art critics and most of the public scorned in the revolutionary show i, V .

Museum of Art. On April 6 a re-creation of the show paintings opened at the armory. UPI Telephoto Communists, who thrive on ex ploiting misery for their political ends, seem to have had second thoughts about Haiti. Where Duvalier's government is casting a weary eye is on the neighboring Dominican Republic whose new president, Dr. Juan Bosch, is a declared foe of dic tators. Louis Chauvet, Duvalier's tough minded, articulate interior secre tary, told this correspondent he would be closely watching the ac tivities of recently arrived exiled Haitian political leaders in the Dominican Republic. "We would not be surprised;" he declared, "if Bosch decided to launch a crusade simultaneously against Cuba and Haiti. Chauvet, who was educated in Belgium to be an agronomist, intimated that an agreement ex isted between the Dominican president and the United States "As soon as Bosch has his coun try's economic situation under control he will allow thousands of Cubans now in the U. S. armed forces to regroup in the Dominican Republic and begin a local war against Castro." he added. A tall, muscular, square-jawed man, Chauvet is one of the lead ers of the civil militia Duvalicr relies on to quash any attempt Hgainst the regime. There have been persistent rum blings of underground activities many observers predict will erupt before May 22, the date when Du valier celebrates the second an niversary of his "re-election." Foreign observers, U.S. officials included, believe the anti-Duvalier underground is becoming increas ingly better organized and effec tive. There also is a possibility of revolt by ' Haiti's 5,000-man army, although it is far inferior in numbers and in weapons to Du valier's civil militia. A dozen or more underground organizations are said to be oper ating in Haiti, a desperately poor, overpopulated, mostly illiterate country which shares the island of Hispaniola with with the Domi nican Republic. But even Teddy Roosevelt had to admit that the organizers of the armory show had "done the public a service" by giving it a chance "to see what is going on" In modern art. He was astute enough to realize that the show would have historic affect on the course of American art, a fact never clearer than in this 50th anniversary year of the armory exhibition. Next Saturday, a rc-creation of the show will open at the 69th Regiment Armory for a three weeks run as a benefit for the Henry Street Settlement.
