C. S. Lewis, "That Hideous Strength,"..Mac- millan, New York, 1946, $3.00, 459 pes. IT IS NOT for any small talent that C. S. Lewis' writing has excited a good bit of attention in recent years. His work varies from such highly imaginative novels as "Out of the Silent Planet" and "Perelandra" to essays on "The Case for Christianity" and "The Problem of Pain" and a fascinating but unclassifyable book called "The Screwtape Letters." Now the third member of the trilogy of fantastic novels has been released, bearing the title, "That Hideous Strength." Al- though some of the characters are carried over from the other books, this may be read by itself without any loss of understanding. Instead of placing the action on some far- away planet, as he did in the first two novels, Mr. Lewis has situated this new struggle between good and evil, his favorite theme, on earth, in the heart of England. It is built around the local politics of a small college and involves a young fellow of that college and his wife. Mark Studdock becomes involved in the machinations of the force of evil, represented by the National Institute of Co-ordinated Experiments, through his interest in college politics. His wife, Jane, is drawn in because of her ability to drem realities as they happen. > The real characters in this masterful allegory are the forces of good and evil personified. There is also a strange and wonderful mixture of the magic of Merlin, which adds to the feeling of terror embodied in the story. These are the superficial elements which make "That Hideous Strength" such fascinating read- ing. But there is much more to the book. Implied in the story are many of Mr. Lewis' ideas on the problems of the world today, on theology and the problem of evil. No matter what one may think of the author's theological and political beliefs, one cannot help but admire the fine humor and satire with which he presents them. This is good writing, and there is much food for thought in what Mr. Lewis has to say. Certainly the problems he poses are of greatest importance, and certainly there is not enough thought de- voted to them. The book cannot be read without arousing a great deal of speculation about the author's hypotheses. At the same time it is ex- citing enough to render it difficult indeed to stop reading long enough to speculate about them. -Margery Wald Vets in South James Buttram, husky 25-pound manager of the recent GI non-partisan group that wrested political control from a machine in McMinn County. said at Athens, Tenn., that he would not recommend the same action in other parts of the country. Buttram, whose group of veterans now legally holds office in Athens, disclosed in a United Press interview that he had received letters from all over the U.S.A. from ex-GI's complaining of political corruption in their home towns. They wanted to know if Buttram would prescribe the Athens treatment as a remedy in their areas. "I told them 'No'," Buttram said. lIe said he though the McMinn County situ- ation was unique and that violence employed there was a last resort. To The Editor: Miss Kingsbury's plan to have a New York photographer take all Ensian photographs has me all riled up. Does this photographer adver- tise in the Ensian, Gargoyle, Daily or any of our publications? Has this photographer ever sup- ported any of our drives or function? Why " " Dominic Says SHORTCUTS to social grace are always inviting us aside from the main road to wisdom. Re- lease of the children once or twice a week for a class in religion under Church instructors is the latest. This is the most persistent call for in- creased religious motivation. The argument runs that what the public schools include in their curriculum impresses the child as important and what they exclude is judged to be trivial. There- fore, move the Bible lesson, the culture of the Jews, the Christian virtues and our religious heritage away from Sunday to week-days and certainly our children and youth will speedily take on both the wisdom of the sages and the attitudes of the saints. There seems to be gen- eral agreement that religion is legitimate and worthy of increased devotion. The zeal they dis- play and the tenacity of the citizens who main- tain Parochial schools of religion, are commend- able and all Americans look with favor upon a deepening of our culture at the point of spiritual values. Whether the delegation of more time to the religious leaders, after two-sevenths of every week, Saturday and Sunday, have been frittered away will mean increased religious devotion or better behavior is under debate. Recently, certain groups of religious citizens in Detroit have formulated a somewhat different proposal. They ask that every session of the public school be opened with the Lord's Prayer and the Ten Commandments. The selections are moderate and would seem to be about the simplest possible request. It is argued, that these precise, statements of belief and hope cannot be variously interpreted, that the teachers them- selves and not clergymen shall lead in these re- citals without comment, and. that neither Jew nor Gentile, Christian nor pagan, can object to this accepted minimum of religion. (Yet the Jewish groups and Liberals do object in current weeklies.) On the other hand,the League and others sponsoring the idea are perhaps enter- taining the belief that the sacred scripture, as such, whether treated with indifference, used perfunctorily or ambraced as a central core of conviction will be understood by the children alike in the second grade or junior high school, and no adaptation of the curriculum of ideas to given age levels is needed to guarantee the desired result in life and conduct. While grant- ing that the Lord's Prayer is germane as worship and the Commandments essential to good edu- cation, it does not follow automatically, as we see it, that the end desired is a certainty. Several basic facts should be kept in mind as we restudy the culture and seek to enrich the experience of our children and youth. First: The education of the child in religion as in any other experience or skill is the business of par- ents and even the schools, the state, or the com- munity, as well as the church must rely upon the parents. The Oregon Decision of the Supreme Court established this fact in 1911. That is thirty-five years ago. Homes have done little on a community basis during those thirty-five years to improve the child's religious education.. The International Council of Religious Education, speaking for about thirty . of the Protestant bodies, is unable to approach any community as a community by any method other than denom- inational or sectarian instruments. Catholic Christians with even more persistence than in former decades insist that the properly qualified priest alone can teach religion. Hence, cooper- ation on a community or geographical society- wide basis is "impossible. American parents, ec- clesiastical bodies, tradition, sectarian fragmen- tation among the Bible-centered believers in all good conscience have failed, if not defied, the parents who may desire to have their children and all children properly educated and certainly disciplined in the religious attitude.t Secondly: Many of the central spiritual values, without which our culture would be pale and its behavior .uncertain are being taught rather successfully by the public schools, and this teaching reaches fully ninety-five percent of the children in every county in the United States. 'Yet our ecclesiast- ical leaders are inclined to accept that great and constant religious service without voicing ap- proval or volunteering support. Not until the accepted religious leaders 'have learned to ap- preciate the training all children get in spiritual values and begin to sustain the teachers rev- erently in their community-wide cultural efforts can we expect to attain that measure of cordial- ity which is ideal climate in which to grow mem- bers of a democratic state, or to move steadily toward Christian goals. In other words, the main road to wisdom and its converging collateral paths are interdependent. Democratic culture is woven delicately, and the life of a child is even more sensitive and sacred. -E. W. Blakenian Counselor in Religious Education should Ann Arbor photographers be deprived of their rightful business because some New York photogapher may be less expensive! Let the senior have their pictures taken where they will -from this New York concern if they so desire. The editors of - the Ensian have no right to compel us to give our business to anyone if we aren't willing to do so. Seniors unite -let's fight Miss Kingsbury's plan and patronize those who support us. Mich- igan merchants' taxes are supporting our uni- versity and thus sending us through school, not New York merchants'. The one ad this New York concern will no doubt feel obligated to give the Ensian can never equal the support- moral as well as financial-that Ann Arbor mer- chants have given us. -Helen D. Horwitz Photographs To the Editor: THE SENIOR PICTURE plan published in Friday's Daily is designed to save time, head- aches, and money for the students and the Mich- iganensian. It is the result of five months of careful planning and has the complete approval of the Board in Control of Student Publications. A retouched glossy print made to uniform specifications will be furnished to the 'Ensian at less than a third of the cost Ann Arbor photographers wished to charge for the same service. Since the student is the one who actual- ly pays for this service, the saving is his, not ours. These uniform glossies eliminate charges from the engraver for recropping that have cost us $300 each year for the past two years. Two Ann Arbor studios also refuse to do this work unless the student promises to order $10 worth of pictures, in addtion to the fee he pays to cover the cost of having his picture put in the 'Ensian. This fee would be between $4 and $5 if the work were done by Ann Arbor studios while the charge under our plan will be between $2 and $3 and the student is under no obligation to order extra pictures. Ann Arbor photographers were not able to meet our engraving deadline requirements. So in addition to the fact that more seniors will be able to have their pictures in the 'Ensian because of lower costs, the system was changed because of necessity. -Flo Kingsbury, Managing Editor 1947 Michiganensian * * * On Ginger To the Editor: SINCE Ray Ginger's slandering of the profit motive system has not passed me by un- noticed, I feel that I must offer some words in his defense. A defense that is perhaps unwar- ranted, as Mr. Ginger is entirely capable of de- fending himself, and with a logic that will wither the sophistries of Ken Herring and his like. I would particularly like to take issue with Mr. Herring's contention that the masses do not share in the losses of a depression. It is common knowledge that the losses which the masses do incur, those of a job and savings which bring possible destitution to their families, are the most serious consequences of a depression. There 'are many of us who will agree with Ray Ginger that "so long as the profit motive is allowed to dominate this country, there will be new wars, and new wars will bring new scandals." By this agreement we do not necessarily condemn the capitalistic system in its essence but rather bemoan the materialistic philosophy that has eminated from the system's venera- tion which causes ts to extoll the accumulation of profit as man's highest accomplishment to the minimizing of human and social achieve- ment... The use of the word "dominate" by Mr. Ginger is the issue that I believe should be raised out of the above quotation. According to my interpre- tation of Mr. Herring's "editorial" a capitalistic system must either dominate or be replaced. That is to say, he infers that the making of money must encompass the "American Way" of life or a system other than capitalism must be accepted. It is in the light of such specious refutations that Ray Ginger's controversial writings are best appreciated. -Hugh Short Word W eapons WE ARE WELL AWARE that the right words properly put together delivered at the right spot at the right moment, can capture and kill. Why not use words and ideas as an instrument of peace, rather than as an instrument of death? Why not, then, the establishment of a U.S. Department of Information on the same status as the War Department? Why not a U.S. De- partment of Information to police the world with words of truth? -Paper Bullets, by Leo J.
