Pearl Buck Voted Nobel Price;
Fame With ‘The Good Earth’; Arts Academy Honors Authors
Award Worth $40,000 to . Writer of Novels About. Life in China. # STOCKHOLM, Nov. 10 (U. P.).— ‘Mrs. Pearl S. Buck, former Amerdcan missionary in China and author of a best-selling noval, “The ‘Good Earth,” today added the 1938 ‘Nobel Prize to her growing list of diterary honors, . The announcement of the award, Worth approximately $40,000 this iyear, did not mention specifically Any of the author’s works, but it was #The Good Earth,” a distinguished novel of Chinese life, which ele‘vated her to literary prominence and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1932. , Mrs. Buck, whose most Fecont ‘novel, “This Proud Heart,” ‘hailed by some critics as even ea _ iter than “The Good Earth,” was diterally born into missionary work. Her parents were - missionaries in China, though she was born in the United States, and she spent her formative years there from the time she was four months old until, at 17, she went back to America for a brief period of schooling.
Married and Divorced
In China she “grew up much alone,” in her own words, and
learned to love the Chinese, their |
folklore and customs. After attending Randolph-Macon College in the United States, she returned to China and two years later was married to a Presbyterian missionary, John Lossing Buck, whom she divorced in 1935 on charges of incompatibility. She aided her husband in his work among the Chinese, bore him two children, taught in Chinese universities and generally lived the difficult life of a missionary. In 1922 she found what she had theretofore lacked — time to write. Her first published work was an article on China, which she sent to the Atlantic Monthly in 1923. From that time on she continued to write. She completed “The Good Earth” in 1930, and with its publication in 1931 took her place among the foremost of American authors.
Disagreed With Board
Following publication of “The Good Earth,” Mrs. Buck spent much of her time in America, writing novels and magazine articles. In one article she said: - “I can never have done with my apologies to the Chinese people that, in the name of a gentle Christ, we sent them ignorant, arrogant and superstitious people who: taught superstitious creeds and theories.” That, and other sentiments, brought her into disagreement with the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, and in 1933 she abandoned her church post. She obtained her divorce in Reno, and on the afternoon of the same day married her publisher, Richard J. Walsh, whose' wife, a close friend of the novelist, had just divorced him. They live on a farm in Pennsylvania where the author does most of her writing. Other novels by Mrs. Buck include “The Young Revolutionist,” “Sons,” “All Men Are Brothers,” “A House Divided” and “The Exile.” She regards novel-writing as a form- of “enslavement.” “If you would be yourself, therefore, free and unpossessed,” she once ey “never begin to be a novelist.”
Author Finds It
Hard to Believe
NEW YORK, Nov. 10 (U. P.)— Mrs. Pearl Buck read through the cablegram in her hand today and said, “O, p'u hsing-la.” In Chinese that means, “I don’t believe it.” A third reading convinced. her, however, and the novelist said she certainly would accept the award. She added that she hoped to go to Stockholm and receive the prize personally from the King: of Sweden.

LAW URGED AS NATION'S MODEL
Erualiars Point. to Tenirs Being Dealt With As Contract,
Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—The contractual philosophy underlying the teacher tenure law in Indiana was recommended today as a model to _be followed in drafting similar
legislation in other states by the|
Research Division of the National Education Association. The report appears in the current issue of the N. E. A. Journal which is published at headquarters here, Supreme Court decisions on tenure in cases appealed from Indiana and from New Jersey are compared, and the reasons why the New Jersey case was decided against the teachers and the Indiana case for them are pointed out in the report. In New Jersey the teacher has the status of a public servant, while in Indiana tenure is dealt with as a contract, it is explained. “In New Jersey the teacher’s position is a public office; in Indiana

one of contractual smlovmant. ”" the
sey rulings made by the United
report continues. “There is no doubt that the authors of the Indiana tenure law and the legislators passing it meant to create a contractual relationship ‘between Indiana tenure teachers and their employing school districts. | . “If a contractual situation is established by a tenure law, the obligation of the contract may not be impaired. But the passage of a tenure law does not automatically establish’ a contractual relationship, as has been proved in the New Jersey case, The contractual obligation must be written into the tenure law in order to be binding.” Differences between the New Jer-
States Supreme Court in 1937 and the Indiana ruling made in 1938 are set forth to show that they are based on these divergent philosophies underlying the laws, and the report concludes: “These two Supreme Court decisions have important implications for the teaching profession. Inquiry should be made in each state as to the interpretation the statutes and courts have made of the teacher’s position, whether it be a public office or a contractual employment. “The tenure law should be written with such. interpretation in mind. Whenever possible it should be made clear in the tenure law that|ti the relationship between teachers, having attained tenure status, and the 'empoying school districts is one of a contract which, on account of the constitutional restriction, can-
