“If you can come quick,” my Aunt Frieda said over the phone, “come quick. Your Uncle Charlie is in trouble.” Half an hour later I was in the flat on the lower East Side where Frieda has been keeping house and hearth for my uncle for the past 30 years. ; ‘“What’s up?”” I asked. ' ‘“Charlie is hiding in Brooklyn with his brother,” said Frieda. “Hiding from what?”’ “From Herman Schloomp, the butcher, who is telling how he is going to knock out your uncle’s eye.”

“What did Charlie do to Schloomp?’’ ‘““What didn’t he do!” said Frieda. “But better I should tell it to you in sequins. . ~ . ‘‘So happens last summer your uncle and me, we are one afternoon taking the- - on Delancey T emer.. Street. On the g iy sidewalk, like al- f= = @4 kinds chalk %G jof marks and 77 % scratch -ups 44 from children, which your uncle §& 0 has been seeing EBSh.. A Y9B weayy ' 7 touching,” says Charlie. ‘ls here on the sidewalks the soul of the East Side trying for some kind expression. Some day should be a real paintner to draw up the neighborhood'” * : ® *® * “WELL, LIKE YOU KNOW, with Charlie to think is to do something crazy. The next night he is going to the settlement house and joining a art class. And in the room is sitting a fat girl in a kimona on a platform, and the scholars are holding out their thumbs and squinting with the eyes. $ ‘Draw exactly what you see,’ gays the teacher. ‘“Half hour later, when the teacher comes for a to-look-see what your uncle has done, he begins making noises like busting. On Charlie’s drawing board is a picture of a thumbnail sitting on top a big pencil. ' “‘This is a class in drawing, not manicuring,’ says the teacher. ‘Take your business someplace else’ ‘“When Charlie comes home mad, I tell him, ‘Let sleeping dogs stay sleeping.” But you know your uncle —next day he is going uptown to the Museum from Modern Art, and when he gets back he is all agoggle. : “‘Frieda’ he says, ‘to be a paininer, a man don’t need perspective. What he needs is guidars. A picture can be a piece - Truit or a chair with one leg—makes no difference so long as \in the corner is a guitar. *So, for the next week he is painting guitars—Moon Over Stan-

This Van Cook is all his life selling one picture for few measly dollars, but now when he’s, dead and can’'t eat, his paintings is worth 30 million. No wonder he is cutting off his ear and they got to drag him to a asylum.’ “Your uncle mills and mulls for a few days and then he is making a decision. ‘Frieda,” he says, ‘it doesn’t pay a man should be like this Van Cook. Supposing I sell, maybe, one picture for five dollars during my lifetime entire, and then when I'm dead and gone the pictures is worth 30 million. By the time I am dead and gone, you will be likewise dead and gone, so who gets the 30 million? My brother. Why should that loafer get my 30 million? Let him go out and make his own 30 million. From now on, I am strictly a old-stylish realist and making pictures with cash value like Grandma Moses. Which 1 am signing Grandma Moishe.” . “Next day Charlie is going to see our butcher. ‘l'm going to paint a muriel on your wall, be says, ‘a whole panorama all kinds succulent meats. Will be good for the cash register.’ “Schloomp says, ‘What 1 got to lose,” and so Charlie paints him a muriel which he calls by name, the Spirit of Meat. When it is finished, Schloomp is saying when he sees your uncle he knocks out his eye.” “Was it that bad?’”” I asked. “A man could go bankrupt from such a picture,” said my Aunt Frieda. ““In Herman’s strictly Kosher store, your uncle is painting on the wall nice cuts Rinderbrust, chuck steaks, first-class plucked chickens. But in the middle is the Cpirit of Meat holding a 15-pound —you should excuse the expi: - o —Virginia ham.”

She told a story of a young Superintendent of a Raleigh’s woman’s prison, Antoinette Lamonte, whose personal contact and rehabilitation work with inmates helped to restore many to the stature of valuable citizens.

- FAMINE IN CHINA Continued from Page 2 We should like to help, if we can. Unhappily, our previous experiences with aid to peoples in the Soviet-dominated sphere have taught us what to expect. We have no assurance that our help will extend to the points where it 1s needed and we have reason to believe that any materials we supply will be relabeled and used for propa-l ganda purposes and their crigin concealed or falsified. We wish, in a spirit of entire friendliness, to help feed the Chinese, but we certainly have a right to expect that this friendliness be made known to them and not distorted to our own permanent disadvantage. . |
