NEW YORK—This upstart col | urnn can't decently give George Michael Cohan his due. We kne-v 1 him only as we saw him, and that, in all conscience, was infrequently enough. But what we did see of him. and what we know h.'.x become part of the American tradition of the stage through him, is enough to give us a profound sense of loss tn his death. It was George M. Cohan's axiom that a song and 1 dance man had to think he was ' I the best song and dance man on ' earth. It turned out, oddly' enough, that George M. Cohan was the best song and dance man ‘ on earth, and if he knew it, he ] know it through a sort of sublime ] | conviction which was only re , niotely connected with the with. We know of the early and fat> ulous Cohan only by hearsay, but the words of our elders and betters bore fruit in witnessing Cohan's later efforts. We saw him in "Get-Rich Quick Wallingford" and in "Seven Keys to Baldpato.” We saw him in "The Royal Vagabond,” in "The Song and Dance Man." In Eugene O'Nciß’s “Ah, Wilderness" and in his latest and greatest success, “I'd Rather Be Right.” We . thought him then and think him now a su]x'rbly equipped mem bcr of the family of the theatre. l»orn to greasepaint, inseparable from the stage and quite obviously a singularly simple and unaf-. fectcd human being. In the earlier plays we hadn't' quite reached our present and hoary age of critical discretion and aesthetic responsibility. Wo 1 enjoyed Mr. Cohan as a child would enjoy a man of boundle.-w vitality, energy, and uncynica) ' extroversion. He was the idcxl song and dance man, for many who have sought to achieve that epithet brought to the task only a desire for glamor and a lamentI able lack of self criticism. If they thought they were the best in the world they thought so only because they could lie nothing at all If they didn't believe It. ; If Cohan had had one moment of I doubt, it his keen car and sharp ; eye had detected in himself one I —

| false note as a song and dance , man, he would indubitably have gone Into another endeavor witli all the drive and push and fierce concentration he devoted to being the Yankee Doodle Dandy. We comparative youngsters might now, and perhaps with some little justice, smile at the naivete of the Yankee Doodle Man, but it's only because we see so much flag waving which substitutos for everything else and are still exposed to it. For every ' cheap chromo like the sleazily sentimental caricr.tures which tell the tale of "The Eve of St. Mark," we'd choose the simple, wholehearted, direct and heartwarming vulgarity of a Cohan waving the flag. It was like a brass band playing a march by Sousa, with the lads you've seen al) your life in the ranks, keeping step, carrying rifles, willing to die for the good old U. S. A. A lot of them might balk at doing that very kind of marching now, but they're carrying the guns and giving their lives, and they're George M. Cohan's boys, every blessed one of 'em. And that’s a million miles from that farm lad in Maxwell Anderson's play. It’s the difference between a slick and easy romantlcization and an honest craftsman's rounded job of work. George M. Cohan died at Gt, in his apartment overlooking .Central Park on New York's Fifth Avenue. He was a little ; out of his milieu at the end. but I being sick so long he couldn't i live at 45th Street and Broadway. | Indeed, it doesn't matter in the ■ least where he lived, nor where he died. His shadow covers the > theatrical district like the cloak 1 of a guardian angel, and well } wager that as he looks on there's an American flag in his hand. Wc always thought that the most overpoweringly wonderful feeling of being an American came to us when we saw the Capitol at Washington, floodlighted and I staunch at the end of a broad 1 avenue. George M. Cohan al- ; most matched that feeling and added a hell of a lot of excitement to it.
