It's a little hard to take seriously the raft of books on success. that still keep pouring from the presses, They're better informed and more sophisticated than they were 30 years ago, but they're still to some extent infected with popular superstition., Let me quote from Mr. Uhler’'s contribution to vocationalguidance literature: » » " “SOME MONTHS ago, as T was looking at Life magazine, I came to a page where there was a series of pictures of our ace fliers in the Pacific areas, There were 25 of them side by side. . , “As 1 studied the faces of the fliers, I was astounded at what I saw. Each face, in general con« tours, looked just like the next fuce. And particularly characteristic of all was the long, prominent nose, the particular attribute of the bird. . While it is‘not the idea of this book to go into physical character-

facial tendencies.” It can also be said in passing that there is not the slightest scientific warrant for any such statement. How could Mr. Uller explain the flying skill of Jap pilots with their characteristically flat, decidedly un-birdlike noses? " » ” THIS MAY sound like unfair criticism, but in a book containing some good sense, the intrusion of such nonsense is deplorable. But by far the worst fault of all such books as Mr. Uhler's is the simplified psychology, which resembles efforts to explain calculus in terms of fourth grade arithmetic. “Everyone you meet has one of these three types of will, impera- | tive, deliberative or adaptive.” (Mr.

MARTIN DESTINY, like Sinclair Lewis’ Martin Arrowsmith, is uncompromisingly honest, even to the point of tactless bluntness, g But unlike Arrowsmith, Dr. Destiny has a psychotic personality, A thwarted, loveless childhood warps his emotional development.

WITHOUT any fanfare about “putting America into poetry,” John Gould Fletcher gives me the feeling of broad prairies, vast plains with roads crossing them, rivers winding about wooded hills and furrows marking the farmlands. But not purely as a spectacle’ the panorama is enhanced by an impression of sunny warmth, of winds blowing on my face and of an undisturbed silence, which: starts a man thinking, All these matters are implicit in the fine poems. in his book, “The Burning Mountain,” which I can prescribe for the reader who looks for beauty, thought and Snieliigent English. : ~ 8 8 MR. FLETCHER is the Ozarks poét, whose mind is like a sensitized plate, receiving impressions from many sides, taking them in and pondering them. The landscape poems of younger years have deepened meaning with his maturity. Deliberately his eye moves over the hills, the dusty ‘earth, the cornlands in the grey dawn, the water in the little streams. He thinks about the lot of man, the realization that’ all flesh is grass, the eternal revival of hdpe and the necea of steadfast adherence to an unselfish ideal. » n IN 1941 he was moved by the significance of the Statue of Liberty to make it speak these warning words: There is no compromise for us,

Deep’ Interest In Jews Told

"REMBRANDT, THE JEWS AND THE BIBLE." By Franz Landsberger. Translated from the German by Felix N. Gerson. Philadelphia, the Jewish Publication ‘Society of America, $3.

EARLY in the 17th century, Jew-

cution arrived in considerable numbers in Amsterdam. Known as the Sephardim, these

and successful, are believed to have given Rembrandt numerous commissions for paintings in the latter, less prosperous period of his career. ’ » » » THE SEPHARDIM evidently considered themselves socially a shade above the Ashikenazim, Jews of German origin, who came to Amsterdam to escape pogroms in Germany and Poland. ‘But, as Prof. Landsberger points out, though the Sephardim had wealth and culture (their greatest intellectual, Baruch Spinoza, they persecuted for heresy), the Ashkenazim were rich in profound religious feeling. And, though Rembrandt did paint pros-perous-looking studies in Sephardic types, his paintings and etchings include many of the humbler subjects, Prof, Landsberger’s thesis is that Rembrandt had a deep and sympathetic interest in Jews, their personality and their religion, just as he had an interest in Biblical, especially Old Testament, themes. It took the genius of a Rembrandt to appreciate the genius of the Jewish people, which was their ability to survive patiently and maintain their religious and cultural heritage in spite ‘of inhuman Weatmen, » » ILLUSTRATED with 66 reproductions from Rembrandt and a few of his contemporaries, the volume presents an interesting art-history study in attractive format. For many years professor-of art history at Breslau university and later curator of Berlin's Jewish museum, Prof. Landsberger, a refugee from the Nazis, is now on the faculty of Hebrew Union Sollee in Cincinnati.
