oT. S. Eliot Compares :
Poetry to Still Life|
Moderns Lean Away From Free-
dom Toward Revival of
Old Forms
DENIES” OBSCURANTISM
“What I have written seems to be
very simple and straightforward,” as-
serted T. S. Eliot in his lecture on
Moderf? Poetry in Goodhart last. Fri-
day evening. “Only a few minor
things need explanation.” Any preju-
dice about his poetry should -bé re-
moved, Mr. Eliot stated, for this im-
pedes appreciation of it. A poem of
his is like a still-life. One can ex-
plain its planes and colors but not
the feeling produced by it. Although
Mr. Eliot remarks of such a poem as
his Sweeney Among the Nightin-
gales¢-“I-don’t suppose anyone would
call that obscure,” yet he admits that
it “might almost be said to have no
meaning at all.” He is not sure that
poetry needs a meaning or that it is
even supposed to have one.
event, an entirely different meaning
is often conveyed from that which
the poet puts into his work or even
intended to put into it.
His commentators amuse and inter-
est Mr. Eliot, for they read into his
poetry allusions which come as a
complete surprise to him. He has
read very much-— better explanations
of his work than those which he him-
self could have done. The Waste|
Land has been called a great criti-|
cism of society. He himself: terms it
merely a “piece of rhythmical
grouching” as the result of a per-
sonal grouch. Because there was a
“fair amount of borrowing” in The
Waste Land, Mr. Eliot thought it
best to provide the poem with notes.
He has regretted his action since, for
the notes terrified some people and
displeased others who like to work
out the allusions themselves. “It is
always unwise to claim originality,”
he says. Accusations of plagiarism
seem to him ridiculous, since often
the whole meaning of a part of his
poem hinges on the context of a pas-
sage from which he has borrowed
phrases or lines.
Some of T. S. Eliot’s poetry has
been styled automatic writing, but he
himself fears that it is no better
than deliberate. He very definitely
works for precision as, for example,
in his use of proper names, however
irrelevant they may be. These are
to give the reader a feeling that, by
this sort of symbolic memory, the au-
thor is triangulAting the parts of his
composition. If the reader knew any
more about the names than that they
existed, he would. be disturbed and
his attention distracted.
It has been said that the purpose
of poetry is “to*communicate experi-
ences.” This, Mr. Eliot thinks, is but
a theory. The relationship between
experience and poetry is uncertain.
In one of his own poems—which he
personally dislikes—La Figlia Che
Piange, his theme came to him from
the description that his friend had
given him of an Egyptian design of
a weeping girl in the museum at
* Milan. He was unable to find the
design in the museum. The thought
of it, however, lay dormant in his
mind until some six or seven months
later, when he worked back to the

| Miss Cannon Discusses
Needs i in Social Service
Miss Antoinette Cannon, speaking
‘in the Common Room last T hursday
}on the opportunities in social service
' work, stressed the need for a mobi-
| lization-of; all the forces in the com-
| munity to accomplish the purpose of
‘jal service work, to make its meth-
sas scientific, and to fill. the actual
available jobs in the world today.
Just as in medicine the goal of pos-
itive health is determined by _ ill-
health, and,‘in its gradual. develop-
ment, practice was first gained. in
highly separate and specific fields—
on the battlefield; among the beggar
classes, in temples, so in the devel-
opment of social science, the many
specific fields of social work have been
only recently utilized to contribute to
a unified science, relating to and not
diverging from psychology, psychi-
atiry,-eeconomies, and—sociology. The
work has become a whole out of these
parts, adapting itself to individual
needs at the same time it is develop-
ing a technical knowledge.
There has recently been recognized
the need for trained social workers:
| consequently, there is less chance now
of serving an apprenticeship to the
| work, Also, private welfare organi-
| zations are becoming a growing prob-
|lem. Every situation is a social prob-
bans with mental and physical aspects
and consequently the best solution
| would be the socialization of all so-
cial organizations and _ institutions,
|e. g., courts and hospitals. Indeed,
within recent years, there has been
| a Yuch higher degree of organiza-
| tion.’ The day of great private foun-
| dations is past, and the new social
; worker is interested in community
| planning, in welfare organization un-
' der federal, state, and city govern-
‘ ment.
So far as present jobs are concern-
'ed, with unemployment, a vast emer-
‘gency relief corps is filled, and fam-
| ily welfare agencies are still open.
| Few jobs are free in the medical field
|and there has been a_ deplorable
slump in settlement and recreational
| leadership work. The child welfare
field is fairly stable, and a hopeful
| tendency is noted’ in the tendency to
centralize organizations for this pur-
| pose. A social worker, trained in
| theory and by practice, after com-
pleting a regular course, ‘should .be
well prepared to direct such commun-
| ity planning as. will mobilize social

| munity life, :

Materialist Theory of » Mind”
Simplifies Universe, Aids
Psychologist :
DUALISM — IS - REFUTED
“How to relate the curious domain
of.the psychical to the body,” said
Dr. William Pepperell Montagu,
speaking in the Music Room, Apri¥
24, on “The Materialistic Theory of
Mind,” “is the most challenging, ex-
citing, and momentous question that
the philosophical mind can raise.”
The great desideratum for the mod-
ern materialist is to find something
physical and material in character to
meet..the demand for explaining the
mind better than the atoms. What if
the real seat of the mind is, not the
atoms of the brain, but the etherie
medium in which these atoms are?
What if every mental state denotes
a specific modification in this med-
ium, and our sensations and feelings
are forms of invisible potential en-
ergy in the brain, into which the ki-
netic energy of incoming currents is
transformed?
From 1850 to about 1915, the ma-
terialistic Weltanschauen was strong
and flourishing, but now it has
fallen on evil days. The new physics
of Eddington and Jeans has swung
away from the mechanistic outlook to
one idealistic and cosmological,
while Millikan and the experts on
matter, who have seen it “face to
face,” are disillusioned about its ade-
quacy to explain-the mind. Again
we-are reconsidering the old, old
problem of the relation of mind and
body, a definite and simple question
which comes. before every one of us
at death. Two types of explanation
may be..offered — the materialistic
monist regards mind as. inseparable
from the body and its. motions, the
dualist makes mind a substanttve in
its own right. :
The . stréngth of materialism in
general is its power to verify or re-
fute the-facts by observation. and
measurement. A materialistic analy-
sis supplies a marvelous simplifica-
tion of the universe. It achieves
what all real science attempts, reduc-
ing incommensurable qualities to
commensurable quantities, the hetero-
geneous to the homogeneous, the dis-
continuous to the continuous. *It ex-
plains the changes of state in mat-
ter and of form in chemical com-
pounds on the basis of divorce and
remarriage of the molecules. When
dealing with the mind, it endeavors
to tie up intangible, invisible sensa-
tions with good, solid body mdédve-
ments, for psychology, thus made ob-
jective, can go on. The materialistic
monist finds that the mind varies
with the body in countless ways,
hence he is led to conclude that mind
serves only as a body-function.
The dualist replies with a caution
lest his opponent fall into the “path-~
ological fallacy” of conceiving nature
after the pattern of his own inside
stuff, and objects that his conclusion
is unwarranted from the premise.
From this defense reaction, he ad-
vances to a more positive stand. He
points to certain clear features of
mind, that do not fit as mere adjec-
tival aspects of atoms in motion, for
example, the privacy of mental
states, the purposefulgess with which
the mind. acts for the future, its
meaning-fulness, the unity of ideas in

Spring—Bless Its Heart
There is something about spring at Bryn Mawr that makes one
expansive concerning the merits of higher education. We spend the
fall and winter bemoaning the fate that keeps us scurrying from the
halls to Taylor while the heavens pour forth their contents, or creeping
through the black caverns of the library, or panting miserably in an
overheated gymnasium. And we conclude that education is a painful
and a useless process, and that we could spend our, time to greater
advantage cruising the Mediterranean, or even Park Avenue. But let
spring burst upon us, and we undergo a complete change of, heart.
We are notoriously unpoetic, and anything but spiritual, but we
do feel strangely pleased when we look at the campus with its green
grass, maples and Japanese cherry trees, and realize that in one sense
it all belongs to us. We can almost, but not quite, forgive the library
bushes. It is not such an ordeal to become an intelligent citizen of
these our great United States if the process is carried on amid sprout-
ing green things and fluffy feathered friends. And also, the world
cannot be as close to-the brink of destruction as we are told it is, if
Pennsylvania weather, usually so ill-bred, can bloom as it is now bloom-
ing. Spring on the campus is not the cause of attacks of spring fever
as much as of spells of inordinate optimism. The two ailments are
entirely different, although their after effects are practically indis-
tinguishable. :
The reports that we are assigned in the spring never fill us with
the gloom and despair which comes to us with their ancestors of the
first--semester. . We put them off cheerily and make no attempt to
excuse ourselves, nor do we have to indulge in enforced diversions to
keep our minds off that which we should be doing. 4n spring, all we
have to do is desert the library and gravitate to the tennis courts, fire-
escapes, or to any of the numerous hillsides, there to bask in Nature’s
eyes. But in winter, owing to what the geographers describe as “in-
clement weather,” the only refuge from the library or the books we
have bravely taken out of the stacks and which regard us accusingly
from the window-seat, is the bathtub, the closet, or the far corner
under the bed. And even a short time spent in such a retreat warps
the mind, and dulls the spirit of youth, for which we are chiefly
famous. Furthermore, we are willing to accept the eloomiest prophe-
cies of the philosophers, economists, psychologists, historians and erities
as to the future condition of mankind, and we believe hideous things
about the past during the winter simply because_the weather is bad.
It seems quite probable that Cesare Borgia ate little children for din-
ner and that Richard III strangled the little princes himself, when we
sit enveloped in blankets in a half-frozen eondition while the heat
refuses to come on, the windows rattle, and the rain drizzles down
outside, But let anyone try to convince us that Mary, Queen of Scots,
spent her time plotting the death of Good Queen Bess—when it is
spring—and we should laugh in his face.
It is optimism and a desire to believe the best of the world and of
the people in it that comes to us with the advent of spring. We cease
to worry about theories of all kinds, and enjoy ourselves. Exams and
reports cease to haunt our sleeping and waking hours, and we worry
much more about our backhand, approach shots, sunburn, or summer
wardrobe. It is no longer possible to throw us into nitiital chaos by
dropping a quiz; we either cut and’play tennis, or write a pretty piece
of prose and hopg it has some connection with the subject in hand. In
other words, when spring comés to the Bryn Mawr campus, we are all
inclined to love life and our work, and take neither very seriously. It
is not that we forget their importance, or that we really care less
about them, it is rather that, after all, it is spring; life obviously goes
on, and we might as well go with it. a

LETTERS
(The News is not responsible for
opinions expressed in this column.)
To the Editor of the College News:
.In your editorial, “Let There Be
Light,” I find a certain superficiality
of point of view and certain mis-
statements of fact which I trust you
will not mind my pointing out.
The “mystification” induced by the
modern novel read in Freshman Eng-
lish indicates the difficulty confront-
ing anyone who attempts to give un-
dergraduates any sort of understand-
ing of contemporary literature, let
alone to gratify that desire for a
“thoroughgoing knowledge of mod-
ern literature and‘ literary tenden-
cies.” It is quite possibleto—chart
present day literagure, but the only
person who can understand such a
chart is the person who has read the
charts of previous. literary periods.
The earlier a period the simpler the
chart. ~The study of the present per-
iod is necessarily more complicated
than that of its forerunners, whose
work time has sifted and set in per-
spective. The work of each period,
moreover, is the outgrowth of all that
has gone before, and not until the
student has some conception of the
ebb and flow of literature, the alter-
nating periods of conservatism and
revolt, of emotionalism “and intellect-
ualism, has she any basis on which
to consider seriously modern litera-
ture. The “educative and cultural”
value of a survey of modern litera-
ture would therefore be highly ques: |
tionable. No student of history, to
give an analogy, plunges into the
period of the French Revolution, or
finds it intelligible, without first
studying the ancien regime. It is to
lay the necessary. foundation in the
study of literature that the present
English courses are designed.
In addition to the work included
within the formal ctrriculam other
guidance is given. New Book Room
books are carefully selected by a com-
mittee. and are intended to make sig-
nificant contemporary writing ,avail-
able to interested students; the Eng-
lish department tries to bring as
many outside lecturers on modern.
literature as limited funds allow, and
encourages undergraduate commit-
tees to do likewise. To say that
within the curriculum all work in
English here ends with the mid-nine-
teenth century is absolutely untrue.
If the study of contemporary work
in Freshman English is to be dis-
missed as merely a_ mystification,
there remain other courses such as
there always have been, treating va-
rious aspects of modern literature.
Victoria did not die till 1901, and

This ‘course was planned, moreover,
to include the work of Hardy, Rob-
ert Bridges and Housman, all of

Mrs. Smith Discusses
Inflation _in Chapel!
Bill Before Congress Provides
for Treasury Note Issue,
Silver Coinage
FACILITATES- LOANS
“Inflation,” explained Professor
Marion .P» Smith, in chapel. on Mon-
day morning, “means any’ method--by
which the existing amount of money
is increased without increase in avail-
able goods and services.” The two
methods. of inflation ‘whith are being
most considered today are currency
inflation, by which more money is
made available, and credit inflation,
by which it is made easier to get
loans on smaller collateral.
Both of these methods and some,
provisions which are not even, infla-
tionary are included in the rider
which is attached to the Farm Relief
Bill now under -consideration. in the
House of Representatives. The bill
passed the Senate on last Friday and
is expected to pass the House within
this week. The rider first provides
for an increase in Federal Reserve
credit by as much as $3,000,000,000.
This measure is not really inflation-
ary. The second provision is for an
issue of treasury notes to the value
of $3,000,000,000. These notes wil] be
secured by United States credit and
will be used to pay off Government
bonds. They are like the greenbacks
which were issued during the Civil
War.
In the third place, it is provided
that the gold content of the dollar
may be devaluated by as much as 50
per cent. Since only forty cents
must now stand back of every dollar,
this may be reduced to twenty cents.
Finally, the President is given the
power to fix at his discretion a ratio
between gold and silver to be used
in international coinage. In view of
this provision the price of silver has
risen from nineteen to thirty-five
cents an.ounce.
All inflationary “measures depend
upon the “quantity theory of money,”
which is more or less accepted by all
economists. According to _ this,
“money has no value.except as a
means of exchanging goods and serv-
ices, so the dollar would only be
worth what it could buy at the mo-
ment.” So if money remains fixed
and more goods are put into the mar-
ket, prices must fall, as they have
since 1929. The present “desperate
proposals to start money up” depend
upon keeping the supply of goods
constant and increasing the avail-
able money. Of the three types of
money used today, gold and silver
coins, government notes which repre-
sent actugl gold in the bank, and Fed-
eral Reserve notes, the Federal Re-
serve notes are much the most com-
mon. The twelve Federal Reserve
banks are allowed to issue these notes
with a backing of 40 per cent gold
and the value of the note in commer-
cial paper (usually short term
loans).
On April 6 there was an average
of seventy-three dollars backing each
one hundred dollars in Federal Re-
serve notes and at present there is
sixty-two dollars and seventy cents.
This means that there is an excess
coverage@f 22.7 per cent and, as Sen-
ator Glass pointed out last Friday
in opposition to the present bill, not
only three billions but four billions
of fiat money could be issued within
the present gold coverage. He. failed
to mention, however, that it wag im-
possible for the banks to seture the
necessary commercial. paper to cover
an issue. “At this moment there is
ample Aacility in the country to ex-
tend credit, but the confidence of the
banks is gone, and there have, been
so many failures that strong banks
hesitate to make loans to companies.
At this: moment credit inflation is
“fantastic.” :
We aré-used to checks as“a form
of credit and in fact use forty, dol-
lars of checks for every one dollar
of currency, but we cannot get ‘used
to the idea of not having gold back
of it all. Mrs. Smith did not go
into bi-metallism because, as she ex-
plained, it is a complete ‘lecture in
‘itself. The trouble with people now
is “that they are so unimaginative
that they suppose they have to have
-gold. Index numbers are all that is
necessary, but the publie wants some-|
thing that it can bite.”

RED STAR LINE
Saturday Night, was very shaky in-!
Somerset Maugham’s adaptation of
Luigi Chiarelli’s comedy. Lee Si-
monson has designed the settings and
‘Judith Anderson, last seen in Iive-
bird, will head the cast.
John Drew Colt, with whom. we
have had little sympathy ‘since Scar-
let Sister Mary, has at last shown
that somewhere in his veins flows the
family genius. His portrayal of a
particularly unpleasant inhabitant of
the reformatory in Little OV’ Boy has
all the critics cheering. Incidentally
the play is one of the month’s better
cohtributions—it is concerned with-a
boy’s reformatory; and all that goes
on therein. Albert Bein, who wrote
it, spent some years of his own life
resting uncomfortably in the arm of
the law, and seems to feel quite
strongly about it.
eThe really big piece of news con-
cerns Radio City, and of all people,
Max Reinhardt. The plan is to turn
the R K O Roxy Theatre into a
legitimate business, and to have Herr
Reinhardt do Gluck’s Orpheus as the
inaugural offering. As Reinhardt is
to do Hamlet at Stratford-on-Avon
this summer, he will not be able. to
come here until fall.. If Orpheus
succeeds, it is planned to have Rein-
hardt do Shakespeare for dear old
Roxy: _. ,
Further plans for next fall include
the play Philip Barry is doing for
Maude Adams. Ear] Carroll’s com-
bined murder mystery and intimate
revue which is to sport Bela Lugosi
and be known as Murder in the Vani-
ties. What we'd like to know is, “Why
haven’t there been any before this?”
And lastly, George Kaufman, Morris
Ryskind and the Gershwins will pre-
sent a sequel to Of Thee I Sing, en-
titled Let ’Em Eat Cake. William
Gaxton, Victor Moore and Lois Mo-
ran are all scheduled to appear in it,
and “It’s supposed to be going to be
marvelous.”
Snow White Reproduces
Spirit of Fairy Tale
“T didn’t know there was a witch,
but weren’t the dwarfs:funny?” was .
probably the reaction of most of the
delighted ‘and horrified young audi-
ence of “Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs,” as presented on Saturday
afternoon in Goodhart by the New
York Children’s. Theatre. “Snow
White,” as dramatized and directed
by ‘Clare Tree Major, from Grimm’s
Fairy Tales, was not.at all the one
we temember from our childhood, but
it was amusing and had. all of. the
over-emphasized unreality and won-
der of the Tales.
The high point of the show was
rvached in the anties cf Hassim and
Bassim, the queen’s«dwarfsywho, all
unknown to the Brothers Grimm, be-
came very important and were in
fact the cousins of the famous seven.
They listened “to the cruel queen’s
plots and directed Gertrude, the lady-
in-waiting, who replaced the tradi-
tional huntsman, to their cousins’
house, where they might leave the lit-
tle princess in safety. They opened
the play with a rush across the stage
and their mimicry of the queen and .
their. wild sword play convulsed the
young audience with appreciative
laughter.

stretch ‘a plaid ribbon across their
breasts.
‘It had become,' through many
years, a highly stylized, almost rit-
ualized ceremony. The plots might
‘be taken from classical Roman or
Greék mythologies, even from Racine;
later Gautier wrote romantic stories
fot it, and the German archeological
discoveries in Egypt inspired a ballet
called “The Daughter. of Pharoah.”
At the end of tne nineteenth century,
the ballet had almost petrified into
a superb technical instruzaent which
repeated itself in all its essentials for
fifty years. Russia was not the only
place .where’~ there - were ballets;
France had her Academie Nationale
de la Musique et de la Danse since
1643. But Russia from France and
Italy had created a. kind of style
which was neither too formal or too
elegant on the one hand, nor too
acrobatic on the other, a style of
dancing admirable suited to be used,
if done rightly, for the expression
of dramatic ideas.
The arts of painting, which natur-
ally influenced the settings of the
ballets, ‘were divided into two big
| Diaghilev,
categories. There were the Russian
yr Slavic nationalists, who wished to
heritance from Byzantium, and the
school of Russians who had been to
Pais om Munich or had studied in
i‘lorence. These men stylized Rus-
sian painting in: an academy of
competent story-telling. The revolu-
tion of Delacroix, or Courbet, reached
Russia only. through Germany. In
music, Western Europe knew Rus-
sia only by Tchaikovsky and by Ru-
venstein. At the end of the century,
“rance, if a blur of impressionism,
and: England following as close as
possible after France, were totally
unprepared for the astonishment
which they were to receive in the
form of the Russian Ballet.
About this time Sergéi Pavlovitch

Petersburg, visited Paris and saw the
exhibitions of the _Impressidnists
Monet, Picasso, Gaugin and Van
Gogh. He brought a number of these
works back. to. Russia, and amazed
the academic artists. Then he sent
Russian art to Paris, and Leon Bakst,
a young Jew, who had become at-
tached to Daighlev’s group, designed
the. installation. Bakst was a great
luminary in the constellation of the
ballet, an oriental, with an amazing
eye for what is most effective on the
; stage, and a passion for Greece and
revive, or to perpetuate, the style of}
the ikon; the traditional Russian” in-
Persia. Diaghilev also organized’ a
series of five evenings of historic mu-
sic, during which he played Russian
pieces, whose composers were - prob-
ubly not even names to these Parisian
music lovers. Diaghilev’s next inva-
sion of Paris took the form of the
opera. Finally, the only thing which
he had not shown the Western world
was the ballet: It is quite impossi-
ble for us to imagine the surprise that
the Parisians got .at that first per-
formance, because we are all fami-
liar with .““modern music,” such
cubism, and with the dancers of a
Degas or a Lautrec picture. It suf-
fices to say that this first ballet,
which was the Pavilion D’Armide, a
revivifying ‘of the France of the
Grand Siecle, was more Le Brun than
Wattecau,. the characters of which
were the people who. danced in the
court ,masques of Versailles, and the
general tone of which was a mixture
of pastorale and fete galante, receiv-
ed tremendous applause. Never be-
fore had Paris seen a dancer who
could make a series of. astonishing
turns in the air, leap perpendicular-
ly his own. height, cross his feet. ten
times in the air, and sink after paus-
ine at the crest of his leap.
