...John Singer Sargent, nor a trenchant controversialist like the late Joseph Pennell. Insurgent, he did not crusade. He taught instead. Born in Cincinnati of French-English-Irish descent, he studied at the Pennsylvania and Julien (Paris) Academies, at the Paris Beaux-Arts. French precision and orthodoxy never made him feel com fortable. Strolling the corridors of the Louvre, he revered Rembrandt, Velasquez, Hals, but was long unable to evolve con victions of his own. Like most fine artists, he remained, even after success, a student of the masters. "Put on a pair of false whiskers...

...automobiles as the U. S. had in 1919. There are now almost four times as many motor cars in the U. S. as there were in 1919. It is not likely that Europe will multiply its motor registration by four in the next ten years. Nevertheless, U. S. motormen feel the "outside" world is the next great world to conquer.

Senator Reed was apparently less interested in relieving the U. S. rich of a duty which they scarcely feel, than in neutralizing the public effect of duty increases on Pennsylvania-produced commodities. To cut the automobile duty would, psychologically if not economically, reduce Industry's protection, make Husbandry's protection seem larger. This Reed proposal seemed to illustrate what Senator Smoot had meant by Finance Committee gestures...

...William James Mayo, famed surgeon of Rochester, Minn., sailed last week from Montreal to attend a British medical convention. Said he: "Canadian affairs feel the influence of a billion dollars of American capital, but American affairs feel the influence of ten billion dollars worth of Canadian brains. . . . At Rochester, 20% of our staff is Canadian, and I remember that 10% of the American Surgeons' Association is Canadian too. In all matters except politics, and particularly in science, the two countries...
