Nolen Describes Battle On Home Front to Enable Fighters to Get Weapons

MARSENAL OF DEMOCRACY." +BY Donald Nelson,” New York,

: Harcourt, Brace. $4.

DONALD M. NELSON had been handling several diffi-

cult jobs in Washington and

was about to go to work as

chairman of the war production board when Bernard Baruch said to President Roosevelt: “That fellow Nelson makes a

noise’ like a dividend—I don’

t know how big a dividend,

but I do think there is a dividend there.” The story of how

that man from Sears, Roe-|™

buck & Co. paid a dividend to fhe United States is told in his own words in Arsensl of Democracy. "Generals write about battles with weapons at the front: Mr. Nelson describes the battle at home to weapons into the hands of the fighters. He began when our mill{ary equipment was so low that Hitler almost won.

“WILLIAM “BLAKE: THE POLI. TICS OF VISION." By Mark Schorer, New York, Holt, $5.

By HENRY BUTLER . MOST OF US CONNECT William Blake with our rpemories of “The Tyger,” read in a literature-survey course, Or perhaps we've heard “And did those. feet in ancient time” in its effective: musical setting by C. Hubert H. Parry. ¢ The latter lyric, with its phrase about the “dark, Satanic mills,” provides a concise introduction to one phase of Blake's cosmic concern with man’s problems. It's ‘a protest against the coal-wasting early industrialism that blackened England's countryside. But Blake saw chains worse than those which used to fasten childworkers to factory machines. Fetters of the spirit, the tyranny of abstract, mathematical science, represented by Newton and his disciples—everything, in short, in 18th century rationalism that denied or frustrated human energies,

bs

n » ” : BLAKE'S answer to the questions life raised was the poetic construc tion of a universe all his own, The aim of Professor Schorer’s altogether admirable book is an analysis of Blake's universe. No brief ‘review can do justice to that analysis. It is based not merely on supposed sources of Blake's ideas, but, more importantly, on painstaking study of what Blake actually said. If you've ever struggled through a couple of the “Prophetic Books,” you realize a reader has to have plenty of the scholarly equivalent of alpenstock and pemmican, Prof. Schorer, now associate professor of English out at California university in Berkeley, has lived with his sube ject long enough to know what he's doing. » td » ON THE BASIS of only slight acquaintance with Blake literature; I have the impression that Prof. Schorer's book is the best single work yet produced. It is a valuable corrective to some of the conclusions rashly reached elsewhere,

Evidently the Hoosier air stimulates literary inspiration, For Jane Kesner Morris, Indianapolis resident from 1041 to 1942, tells Henry Holt & Co., publishers of her new novel, “Women, Inc.” that her Indiana year was “an importantperiod in the development {of her talent as a writer.” As representative of the Univer-

Writers like -Aldous Huxley have probably over-emphasized the ‘all that lives is holy” aspect of Blake's thought, in bitter opposition to lingering Victorian prudery and the deadening effects of machine civilization, True, some of Blake's utterances, read with one eye on some of his paintings and drawings, seem to provide poetic sanction for freedom of the body. But the point I gather from an unavoidably rapid and superficial reading of Prof. Schorer’s book is this: Accurate understanding of Blake demands study of the

Speculation Of Hectic 20's!

if John is not running a network of railroads or a brokerage *house. For a change it is a story about men of wealth who run a public utility holding company, their wives and their mistresses, in the hectic.1920’s, when speculation was mistaken for investment and all warning signals were discarded. Paul Holden, Mr, Harriman's hero, is the younger son of a wealthy magnate, Jonathan Holden, who runs this enormous “empire.” For Jonathan everything is simple; he pays other men to worry over details. Some of his directors may question the advisability of issuing debentures, but Jonathan never; besides, Wall Street will buy anything. He has faith in his business cycle and is even flirting with the idea of organizing a large concern in Europe. s ” 2 BUT PAUL HOLDEN ‘had too strong an interest in human beings to become wholly worldly. He was greatly ‘influenced. by his love for Leah, daughter of a Polish mother and a French father, whose ambition was to dance in public. Leah's influence-on him was powerful, too. She saw no health in the huge financial deals. Other women were affected by the fortunes of their men—in fact, the whole intricate story of financial chicanery is bound up with its effect on the human temperament, male and female. Never for a moment does Mr. Harriman lose sight of the fact that human beings are engaged in these transactions and that their moods and apprehensions, no less than their -astuteness, affect their decisions. a ” 5 n THERE IS a pointed reminiscence of the meod of thre Coolidge era when Roland Tyson, who knew more about making money in Wall Street than anyone, is confronted by his son, John, with the news that the market is going to crash.

"THE MIRACLE OF THE BELLS." A novel. By Russell Janney: New York, PrenticeHall. $3. A

EVEN IF Russell Janney had tried to get more Hollywood ingredients into “The Miracle of A the Bells,” there wouldn't have been room in the nearly 500 pages. Olga Trocki, daughter of a ne'er< do-well father, worked as a youngster in the coal breaker at Coaltown, Pa. that, led to her illness and untimely death. But. in" her brief life, a love of beautiful things and a passion for giving happiness started her on a stage career. She sang songs (sentimental, not lewd) in burlesque. : ; # ®. a8 AND EARLY in her burlesque experience she met Bill Dunnigan, ace of press agents, at a W. 42d st. theater in New York. About a year later, on Christmas eve, Bill saw her again in a burleycue house in a “midwestern city.” They went out together after the show for supper, And although the midwestern city is not identified, the difficulty they had trying to get something to eat at midnight makes it seem uncomfortably close. " » » ANOTHER year later, she was in Hollywood, playing bit parts. Bill was doing publicity for Marcus Harris Productions,. Inc... When Anna Gronka, famed Polish star, walked out of Harris’ million-dollar production, “The. Garden of the Soul,” Bill got Olga her frst he opportunity. As Olga Treskovna, the fragile, wistful girl from the coal breaker, did a magnificent job, Bill's love for her grew.- So.it was a soul-searing tragedy "(I can’t help using the kind of phraseology Mr. Janney does—his style is contagious) when, weakened by the strain of finishing the film, she died six hours later, » ” EJ IN OBEDIENCE to the terms of Olga’s will, Bill accompanied’ the body to Coaltown for burial. The great Dunnigan's career seemed over, Harris had fired him, convinced he had put a jinx on “The Garden of the Soul,” which, Harris thought, was now a total loss. But every cloud has at least a silver-plated lining. Bitten by the fangs of inspiration, Bill turns up the biggest publicity stunt on record.
