i This Dangerous Motor Age In 1909,, peak year for travel

by ,horse power, there 'were 26 million horses and mules at work, traveling 13 billion miles annually. There were 3,850 persons killed in accident;; involving horses and horsedrawn v~hiclE:s 30 for every 100 mmicn horsedrawn miles.

Local Artist Has One Man Show

By I. J. Parker The exhibit ,;f paintings by hi­

dare Reuben. 4-D Ridg<:-. at the Tr·o.ns-Lux Theat~r in \\'ashington is a fascinating example or tnK ··naive art. The work is that oi an untrained ar-tist. but it convey' the charn1, 111agic and dif;~1!~y c1 hcmest creative in~ight.

It is not eas,· to c:lassiiv l\o.:l1LE':: among the ,·ari~;us schCJoh- oi paint· ing. Thev reflect the enthusiasm o:· expressio;Ji:'lll, · the concern with light of an i,lljJr<:ssionist. and ttl(' St~arch j, .r order that bdo:Jgo' 'tO tiw abstract clique. The "prin:itiYe .. painter could hE' c•>nsidered a;; ck•c kin. Alfred H. Barr ;;tate.: i:1 the fnreword to the book "The:·

·Taught Ti1emseh·es'' hy Sidney Janis, that it i:- the independence C•' ~chool or tradition which di:;tin­gushes thes<· painters. Their psy­chological and pictorial innocenc~. their. naive realism and fantaO'y ar·': also included as charact('ri;;tic< \\ hich dif'tingui,:h the pri:niti...-~ painter.

Subject Flowers Except for two land~capes. the

subject matter of Reuben's paintings is fl,)\vers. They are not bouquet,: i;1 the ordinary.' conventional atti­tude of casual langour. ::\lor can thev he recogn.ized as definite bntan­icai types. l<eubens' flowers are ir;­vented. The shape~ of a petal, thE' configuration of a sten1. the tnass ci' a ,-ase are horro•~·ed iron1 nature. yet exist. "' s~parate entities en tht· picture plane.

Reuben wr,rks meticulously. The painting-s are saturated with dot:- c•i pure paint. sometimes like a fine screen and at o1her times rais<:d in thick ma"'cs. ('ift~n the geEcral e'­fec~ i:- simila1· t<> tapestry or peti:­po~nt. The entire fabric of hi;;; que;;t for design i~ one of formali:-m. Rano­ly <ioes he ,·ary the balance or tl: e symmetry Ignoring the haphazar<l ,-ariety of nature. l{eubeJ' strives instead for an architectural order. His fiower patterns seem to be con­structed rather than nurtureo.

Passionate Color It is only his sensitive passion for

color that saves Reuben's paintings from being regarded as rigid and cold. Hung in the lounge of tl:e theater: amid subdued lighting. r!•e paintings seems creaturec; of tbe night. Each painting comes a]i,·e. reflecting a chrom'ltic intensity that imposes a visual impact on the sptnt. Like precious stones. the iar:ets of color sparkle and glow v:ith a mysterious iridescenr quality.

After attending most of the art exhibit,: in \\'ashington for the ·past r!ecade. it is surprising to c!isco..-er an f·xhihit nf thi'< kind in \\'ashing-­ton. The Jean Lanigan Studic,;:;. which arrange the art shows. for the Trans-Lux are to he compl;ment>:d ir,r their keen pt.rception anrl c0t: r­ag-e. It may • ..-ell mark a promising­trend in this area.

The honesty of a craftsman's skill that distinguishes Reuben's_ work

vrould iikr, Ll call their· atte~1tion to a·rlr·oblem which is worrying the residents <trid prospcdive customers much ;no!'C' than the by-law J•rovtswns. Ti:H; latter, after all, will have '.:o ]),~ decided accordins· to the d;sposal law;;, and after c·onferring at length with the oifi­cials who an! running the sale. Our rrohlt>m. :1nd the problem of u10st Grecnl;dten;, is the crucial o,ne <Jf cash.

Up to this point, nobo.dy e~:cept the board of directors has been in any position to get figures on -h0w much the government wants for particular houses. Until the hoard gets thosr~ figures and makes them public, the tenants will i1ave to guess at the VG<.lue of their resi.de1ices and make their plans on spe-culation in>;tead of fact.;_ The prime question we have heard lately seems to be this: \Vill any consideration be given to tile condition of the individual house in setting the price the r~sident will ha·Je to pay? .A general price of from five to six ·thousand dollars for old-Greenbelt houses is (•nough to calcu!ate a generai ten-percent down-payment; r.here will probably be some differential according to attic and no attic, and other house-type variations which have been set up by PHA previously as. a .basis for rental charges; hut-how about the con­ditions resulting from lack- of maintenance ·wm the tenant who has tried vainly' to have plaster repaired, or floors fixed, or other fundamental complaints remedied, be charged as much for his dwelling as his more fortunate neighbor, in whose roof gutters no ·hird..<J nested and who has no ancient rain-leakage to deface his wa:Us?

. When the board gets together with the PHA negotiators, as we hope and trust they will be designated to do, may they give as much time and thought to a fair deal for the individual member and his problems as they are now putting on the realization of the coinmunity's dream. '

Out of Balance? . If you haven't found it out yet for yourself, the Journal of

COmmerce made it offidal this week: Prices have already started to ·edge up as a result of the "Korean situation." Recently when the fake ~offee shortage started a run of frantic buying, the price

. of coffee on our local grocery shelves went up with all the rest of the supermarkets. \Vhether scare shortages are going to make themselves felt in G!'eenbelt immediately or not will depend on whether management feels it must hike the priees of goods on the shelves before they have to be replaced at a higher figm·e. Shall we charge ourselves panic prices in our own coopP.rative, or shall we let oun!elves be what we have so often called ourselves-a ba!­ailce-wheel for the local economy?

Dodon; advis·~ parents, during summer months, to keep a close check on the personal hygiene of children, with special attention to cleanlhess of hands and feet. Tonsil operation and all surgery of the nose and throat should be postponed until after "polio months." To a?oid lowered resis­tance through exhaustion, children should have plentv of rest a11d sleep. Precaution:;. must be tak~n against sudden and excessive chil­ling. Chi:dren should be kept out of <'rowd~, during the polio season anrl. never takE:n on long, tiring trips.

Symptoms whieh might indicate any serious illness should receive n,_edieal attentbn at onee. \Vith poli0, this :s imperative if the patient i:-; to have hi<; best ehance of :;avi.ng his life or warding off permanent paralysis.
