...beautiful, but there is no mark of actual and reverberating content in his work. Marin, on the other hand, with his contrapuntal placement of emphatic colors, arrives at an emotional shorthand which leads him to pointed interpretations of scenes and aspects of nature. His "Mt. Chocorua" exemplifies this phase of his painting and also serves to show traces of nineteenth century French art on his work. Marin's art is superior to that of Homer because his technique is used not simply as an end in itself but as a means for expressing a vigorous kind of aesthetic insight...

Results and conclusions of the survey will...

In 1935, embattled President Guth resigned. Instead of ending, the Guth-Loft squabble thereupon entered a new and noisier phase...
