Another Munich
Plan For Spain? ....
AST SATURDAY the Insurgent gov-
ernment in Spain celebrated the sec-
ond anniversary of General Franco's assumption
of power. In his speech on that occasion there
was the usual prophecy of the "arrival of an
,early day of victorious peace." With the settle-
ment of the Czech crisis,,the future of the Span-
ish struggle and its international complications
becomes the most important problem of Euro-
pean diplomacy. Analyzing the meager newspaper
accounts of the last few days for possible indi-
cations; two conflicting viewpoints appear.
The first opinion is that Mussolini is tired of the
war and plans to remove hs troops, if he has not
begun to do so already. Franco's drive in te
Ebro valley has been stopped. The war has
reached a stalemate and there is little hope for a
Fascist victory before next spring. It has been
reported that during the recent crisis, Franco
had pledged neutrality to France in the event
that general hostilities would break out. This
statement has not been denied by the Insurgents.
Furthermore, the ,oyalists are evacuating all
foreign volunteers, which leaves Mussolini little
justification for aiding Franco with his conscript-
ed volunteers. Finally, some correspondents have
mentioned the Anglo-Italian agreement of last
Easter. Mussolini needs the financial assistance
of Great Britain badly, but he cannot receive
that aid until the removal of his troops which
would put the treaty into effect.
On the other hand, The New York Times re-
porter in Rome, who has been called a sympathiz-
er of Mussolini by the liberal periodicals, points
out that although Mussolini would like to desert
Franco, he has committed himself too far to back
out now. At Munich it was stated that Chamber-
lain and Mussolini were going to confer soon
over the Spanish situgtion. After the events at
Munich and Berchtesgaden we cannot see how
Chamberlain's belief that democracies can exist
side-by-side with dictatorships and his methods
of appeasement at the cost of democracy will do
anything but abet the triumph of fascism once
again. In the press report of Franco's celebra-
tion Saturday, it was mentioned that among the
foreign guests there was a representative of
Great Britain. His presence at the rebel capital
on this occasion ca only be regarded as signifi-
cant of Chamberlain's attitude.
One thing is clear and cerain about the dark
complexity of international diplomacy centering
around Spain. The Loyalists will never accept a
peace whose terms concede to foreign powers
any of their territory or resources. A peace which
is forced upon Spain under such conditions will
be most dearly bought.

Broken Promises
And Mussolini .

interesting letter from M. Levi point-
ing out in what measure Herr Hitler has kept
Jfeeinr tMe
Heywood Broun
I was talking with an art critic about painting
yesterday, and so, naturally, the name of Adolf
Hitler came up. The course of world history has
been vastly affected by the fact that the Fuehrer
isn't a very good painter.
"But don't set him down as
just terrible-as a painter,
I mean," said the critic, cast-
ing a disapproving eye at an
early Broun which hung
heavy over his head. "I've
seen some of Hitler's water
colors," the critic continued,
"and some of his charcoal
sketches. I believe all his paintings have been
done in water color."
The same medium he uses for treaties and
territorial guarantees," I suggested, but the critic
waved me off to indicate that he wished to dis-
cuss art and not world politics.
"These pictures of Hitler's" he explained, "are
very nice-not good, you understand, but nice. I
saw them before he became a dictator, and so the
irony of the contrast between his political sweep
.and the scope of his painting escaped me. The
mood is timid and the treatment conventional.
His subject matter consisted of' the streets of
tiny towns and peaceful landscapes. Everything
I saw was done in small compass.
* ~* *
Hitler's Little Houses
"The drawing was quite good, although entirely
static. The little houses were set down with ac-
curacy. They rather suggested the sort of stuff
an architectural draftsman might do on a Sun-
day afternoon for his own amusement. Decidedly
they seemed to be the work of a person who could
do something else more effectively.
"As I remember, Hitler the artist never tackled
any figures. No one walked in the streets which
he painted or played in the shade of the big
trees which he depicted so rigidly. I have a vague
recollection that there were a few sheep in some
of the landscapes, competent and contented.The
detail escapes me. This was several years ago, but
even if I had seen these water colors more recent-
ly it would be difficult to carry away any very
striking impression.
"The spirit was one of lifelessness and of sur-
render. And this was heightened by the meager
color sense of the man. No sky which he painted
was a glowing bowl. Instead, he left a light blue
curtain down behind the uncompromising green
of his forests. The world at which this small man
scratched seemed to be closing in on him. You
had no sense of anything beyond the horizon-
or, indeed, of any horizon. Possibly I exaggerate
in retrospect, but now I think that even whe
he did an open field, it contained spiritually a
sign which read 'Verboten.'
The Sunday Painter
"I started off to talk about art to the exclusion
of other things. I suppose that even here we have
felt desperately the tension of war and the rumors
of war. But you cannot divorce the personality
even of a Sunday painter from the things he
does with line and color.
"I did not know it then, but now I know why,
long ago, I had an uneasy feeling in looking at
the nice., quiet, uninspired water colors of Adolf
Hitler. I have said that they were peaceful. But
it was not a comforting peacefulness. It was a
frozen world he captured. No leaf stirred, and no
child romped. And now I know the secret. Hitler,
the little man with the water colors, did not
paint peace. He painted death.
"Almost a generation ago Hitler moved humbly
about Munich carrying under his arm a sheaf of
his drawings and his paintings, and sought some
master who would accept him as a pupil. His
talents were too meager, and his colors were too
dim. They all refused. It is a pity no one took
him up. He might still be painting sheep instead
of offering to lead them to slaughter."
The Editor
Gets Told...
Recognition For Murphy
To the Editor:
Let's not wander so far afield to find favorite
sons for the U. of M. Tom Dewey may have been
a fine public prosecutor, but his recent political
activity places him definitely in the category of
"window-dressing for the machine," because the
political groups he now represents are distin-
guishable from Tammany only by their inability
to achieve the sordid goal, which the Tiger "suc-
cessfully" did achieve. Months ago Dewey decried
politics and promised to clean up Tammany, even
if it took several years. Perhaps he peeked too
much, but suddenly he finds himself called to a
"higher mission." What miserable logic this is,
when the State of New York has the finest of
state administrations and the policy racket is
flourishing better than ever in New York City.
But enough of over-ambitious public prosecutors
-I believe the people of New York will chastise
such a lapse of public responsibility.
There is a better choice for a favorite son sit-
ting in the governor's chair in nearby Lansing.
Frank Murphy is recognized throughout the union
as one of the ablest of the 48 governors. He first
introduced Lansing to scientific public adminis-
tration and began the tremendous task of taking
The FLYING
TRAPEZE
By Roy Heath
Note: This s some more stuff on those
Czechs. Czechs, as a steady diet, are
likely to become more than a little bor-
ing. If you feel at all tired of it all, Il
can recommend Press Passes over onl
the sports page.
I hate to worry this topic any long-
er. Magdol and Mayio have castigat-
ed Chamberlain, Mussolini, Hitler,.
and myself and the international sit- l
uation stands about as it was before
they started. Speaking for the four
of us. Magdol old man, we are just
going to let 'er ride for a while. If
you want to go on tilting windmills
that is all right with me. But you
will have to find another sparring
partner. I am not adept at rhetorical
rabbit punching and I always find
myself "running on the wrong track"
as soon as I express an opinion con-1
trary to someone else's. I do not denyl
that I am an ex-high school editor. I
can remember when I used to write
scathing editorials denouncing anyone1
who did not show the proper enthusi-
asm for my pet undertakings and dog-
mas. As to the romantic charge
well, I'll admit I have my moments.
Now, about that statement with re-
gard to "a certain Great Leader of
about nineteen hundred years ago''
according to you who "spoke to a
handful of men." I suggest youcbrush
up on your Bible. As I recall the
stories, He always talked to a full
house but the day when he endeavored
to hold His crowd past lunch time, He
would have been talking to a "hand-
ful of men," and restive men at that,
if He hadn't done some pretty fast
and fancy work with some sardines
and crackers which someone hap-
pened tor have on their person.
I don't know why.I keep on with this
unless it will ultimately lead us to
some concrete conclusion. I think I
have exactly what is needed. It is
known as "Heath's Theory of The
Vicious Circle" ' or "The Czechs
Brought It On Themselves." During'
the World War, the Czechs were fa-
mous chiefly for the fact that they
hopped from one side of the battle line
to the other, fighting first on one side
and then on the other. Sometimes
they shot at both sides just for the
hell of it. This gives rise to that pop-
ular bon mot," Czech and Double
Czech," which later, as everyone
knows, brought on Amos 'n Andy.
They went along well enough for
some years, until Mussolini, heard
them one night and decided thatl
something should be done about them.
Benito thought they were Ethiopian
;pies. The next day Italy marched
on Ethiopia and got away with it.
This tipped off Hitler that no one
would do anything abouthit if he
grabbed a little territory. He has
finally gotten around to Czechoslo-
vakia and even if they don't deserve
it they brought it on themselves. And I
that, as far as I am conceined, is that.
Maybe it is a hangover from three
years on the sports staff, but I still
can't resist the temptation to pick
the winners of Saturday's games. I
don't want to go into the business in
a big way since that is the business of
the Sportscribes. However, those little
white slips so temptingly strewn
around in the campus drug stores
which offer about half enough odds
for picking from four to seven games
are fair game for this space. Here-
with my choices:
Four Games at 7-1
Michigan over @hicago
Santa Clara over Texas A&M
N.Y.U. over Rutgers
Pittsburgh over Duquesne
Five Games at 13-1
Cornell over Harvard
Six Games at 20-1
Oklahoma over Texas
Seven Games at 30-1
Ohio State over Southern California
JUSTIFIABLE SKEPTICISM
Poli. Sci. Prof. Heneman upon in-
troducing a course in political theory:

course." It is a course in political
theory and deals mostly with ideas.
You students may find some difficul-
ty in dealing with an idea."
was achieved without fanfare and
ballyhoo; and he did 'not brush aside
hte responsibility for political ad-
vancement. Here is a graduate of this
university for whom ctizens of other
states woud gladly vote for, yet
thwarted politicians (Michigan's ver-
sion of Tammany Hall) cry out
against him to hide their plan to feed
at the public expense. Murphy, whose
fame is nation-wide, gets too little
notice in the Michigan Daily, and I
hereby suggest that this worthy son
of Michigan be given fuller recogni-
tion for his services to this state, in
the journal of his alma mater.

'Mayerling .. .
By JUNE HARRIS
Beauty is intrisic to "Mayerling." An abiding
impression of beauty in music, costumes and
settinng is created by the portrayal of the tragic
love affair between the Archduke Rudolp of
Austria and the lovely young Marie Vetsera. he
picturing of the nineteenth century Vienna and
the romantic situation of an emperor who isn't
free to love demands delicacy of treatment.
"Mayerling" fulfills this demand.
Beautiful though it is, the film lacks unity.
Its scenes are arranged in neat little patterns:
gayety followed by sadness; youth and goodness,
contrasted with authority and intrigue. The tran-
sition between these contrasting scenes is weak;
the audience is plunged from summer to winter
and back again without any spring or fall to
smooth the change.
"Mayerling's" chief virtue lies in the complete
and convincing effectiveness of several scenes. In
the opera scene, when the love affair receives
its first real impetus, the contrast between the
stiff, unrealistic dancers upon the stage and the
natural beauty of the young Marie is clearly
shown. In addition the splendor and pageantry
are sufficient to make it memorable.
One of the best scenes in the picture shows
Rudolph in a mood of itter despondency, trying
to forget himself in debauchery. The wine, women
and song theme is carried out to perfection in
the portrayal of a gay orgy. The madly whirling
dancers, the flowing wine and the absence of
his love work Rudolph to a pitch cf self-forget-
fulness. According to the pattern of gaeity fol-
lowed by solemnity, Marie makes her appear-
ance. In this scene her power over Rudolph and
his need of her are most clearly brought out.
The final episode, showing the tragic deaths at
Mayerling, seemed lacking in dramatic intensity.
Since the suicide pact had been anticipated, the
element of suspense was almost totally absent.
You are certain that the death of the lovers
will end the picture; you expect it and thus the
shock is lessened.
Danielle Darrieux's portrayal of the sheltered
innocent young Marie is extremely convincing.
We see her character grow from a timid, fright-
ened little girl, bound by convention and her
mother's rule, into a mature lover, poised, self-
assured and fearless.
Charles Boyer's conception of the -'Crown
Prince is stirring, but rather monotonous. In only
one scene in the entire film does he smile, and
while his lot is tragic, there must be some time
when his love would make him forget his un-
happiness. Yet in the role of the dashing young
son of the House of Hapsburg he realizes his
nart well. He makes us feel the desperation of a
