EDITED BY fi ELIZABETH CLARKSON ZWART Caesar Appears as a Thinker; In Thornton Wilder's New Novel (jg 3pd--j 1 XT Excerpts From Letters I have a few suggestions to those who are troubled by the high cost of living.

Most white collar workers and many factory workers have a short day's work and do not get enough physical exercise. They ought to buy an axe, a spade and a hoe. Then they could chop wood instead of buying coal and would be independent of John L. Lewis. They would raise potatoes which are good food and get along with less high priced bread.

It is difficult to explain why people are eating more meat than before the war, unless It tastes better because the price is higher. Eggs are plenty and cheap and they are a good substitute for part of the meat. The price of clothing is high but do not blame the farmer who sells 35 cent wool. Most of our trouble was caused by the effort of government to keep down the cost of living and let wages rise. E.

J. Warren, Keosau-qua, la. A CRITICISM OF MOTION PICTURES To the Open Forum Editor: We quote the following from the trade paper "Motion Pictures Herald" of Jan. 24: "There's a fight brewing in New Jersey. There, recently, the.

New Jersey Poll, an independent public opinion research organization of Princeton, sent all New Jersey newspapers the results of its poll on the question of motion pictures and children. The poll, for release Jan. 15, was summed up this way: Three out of every five New Jersey residents believe movies influence the lives of children and sums up by the statement that the influence is bad." I am a former theater owner. I have watched some 416 pictures on the screen, and I don't believe out of this number 10 per cent have opened without the opening of a liquor bottle, or the lighting of cigarettes. Some might say, well this is modern, that today these two items are used in modern drama.

We who want our children to grow up clean minded without these injurious habits, don't want our children confronted in thyr entertainment by such ideals. Sure we want them to have the chance to choose, but let's give them home and church training so that they will be able to understand and have full knowledge before they choose. Pictures are fine entertainment and could be kept wholesome and clean, but the public will have to demand this type showings. Don't blame your theater owner, he has as much choice in the matter as you and I have in making the sun shine. We are of the opinion that maybe a probe into the picture industry might lead to some startling facts about donations from liquor and cigarette manufacturers toward advertising their wares in our entertainment.

R. M. Brown, Milton. THE IDES OF MARCH: By Thornton Wilder. Harper.

$2.75. Reviewed by Lauren Soth. THORNTON WILDER is top rank in anybody's rating of American writers. He is a three-time Pulitzer prize winner twice for plays and once for a novel, "The Bridge of San Luis "The Ides of March" is his first book since the war, in which he served as an intelligence officer with the Air Forces. In The Bridge Wilder was concerned with religion and the Mystery which guides human destiny.

In The Ides he returns to this theme through an imaginative study of the mind of Julius Caesar. Caesar, as dictator of the Roman republic and supreme pontiff of the Roman state religion, is shown as theologian and philosopher, wondering whether a Mind oversees human affairs but at the same time cynical about the role of the state religion as the opium of the people. MISCAST Somehow this picture of the warrior and practical politician doesn't quite come off with this reviewer. Caesar was the man of action, and he seems a little miscast in the role of a thinker of great thoughts. There isn't much of a connected story to The Ides.

Wilder tells snatches of what he imagines Soman life to have been during the last few months of Julius Caesar's life the visit of Cleopatra to Rome, banquets and celebrations, the dissolute life of the aristocracy. But there Is little pattern to the letters, state memorandums, and other papers through which the author reconstructs the period. It Is as if one had come upon a cache of documents of the Rome of late 46 B. C. and early 45 B.

C. and had simply translated them, with no interpretation and little background. From the title the reader would expect a narrative of the plotting which led to Caesar's assassination. Though many of the papers are reports of Caesar's "secret police," we don't learn much about the situations or reasons which led to the death of the dictator There are frequent references to the dictator's taking away the liberties of the people but no detailing of restric tions on freedom. Catullus, the Roman poet, authors a series of chain letters circulated rather than in the evening.

To the Open Forum Editor: A valued friend at Cedar Rapids has just sent a clipping reporting the conflicting1 views expressed by readers of yours on the royal wedding. The subject is still fresh. It is clear that the royal family will always furnish topical news, which can be controversial, friendly and everything else in between, in turn. Perhaps there is this to be said.

The hold royalty exerts upon us British folk rests on considerations aside from historical orffes. In the strictly historical sense, in fact, it has long ceased to depend upon glamour for its continuance. CALL. OF DUTY ANSWERED. This is no Charles II we have occupying the throne, to provide for future generations the archaic insults to intelligent decency which I am told gild the pages of "Forever Our king has, like his father, untiringly answered the call of duty as he Interprets it, has loved one wife in every gentlemanly kind of way and, In his obviously glad consent to his daughter's marriage, has shown that he appreciates fully and competently his position as the head of his own private family.

There is nothing even remotely sensational about that. He has, and the royal family with him, succeeded in establishing himself in our affection by being merely ordinary and consistently reliable. Yet because, being royal, all his and their actions must inevitably be the subject of comment, that which would be classed as prosaic in the lives of everyday folk is reported on in artistic detail. What the king does must be made to sound interesting, that being the inescapable penalty of fame. HIGH STANDARD FOB THEM.

Your people can reckon that the royal family will continue to command our attentive loyalty so long as they represent for us the finer qualities of our race. They have, therefore, a lofty standard to maintain. They will not lack critics, carping or envious, though no one in his sober senses would covet their gold plate or their reputedly delicate living. Much comment was raised concerning the debate on the royal allowances. angered many of us somewhat, too.

Yet I seem to grasp the point. Those allowances have been granted on the tacit understanding that they will be properly earned. That they will be, you can be sure. There are not many families who work so devotedly, not many husbands and wives who combine in the endeavour, almost to their last breath, so wholeheartedly to serve their day and generation. DUKE BEFRIENDED.

It is but fair to add that the Duke of Windsor has well earned his "retirement" from a life of wearing popularity. All honor to him that, despite the keen regret which must dog his daily path, he causes so little embarrassment to his successor. We know him to be well content with the sterling consolation brought to him in the person and personality of the duchess who, by a strangely symbolic turn of destiny, is a member of a nation with whom Great Britain has been, and continues to be linked by bonds stronger than death. There is something in all this that I don't pretend to understand. Alexander R.

Campbell, 40, Nook Rise, Liverpool 15, England. Three Principles For Worlcl Peace To the Open Forum Editor: Neither the unscrupulous politicians, nor the infamous militarists are promoters of peace. Militarism in any form inevitably spells death, destruction and chaos. A fundamental basis for world peace must be sound, sincere and positive. Three cardinal principles must be Inaugurated and adhered to by the world's masses if peace is to become a living reality.

Paramount of these three is the return to, the acceptance of, and the practice of Christianity. More and more emphasis must be given to higher education. The third must be faced with courage. It is becoming more and more apparent that civilization is on the threshold of decay unless a drastic revision of our marriage laws is forthcoming. Those with undesirable traits should be prohibited from obtaining licenses.

Divorce must be forbidden. It is obvious the three principles must be worked out in co-ordination. Hubert Origer, Box 55, Stuart, la. Good of Evolution Found at State Fair To the Open Forum Editor: Henry Tuininga in the Feb. 1 Open Forum missed the point.

Of the three articles I read, two of the murderers had religious training." The teaching of the theory of evo lution has nothing to do with the cause of murder. Evolution only points that like produces like and by the choice of the best, better progeny or descendant is the result. Persons who think evolution the cause of mur der, should attend our Iowa state fair, or at least, a county fair, where are displayed better livestock, poultry and grains, all a proof of evolution and the work of such persons as the late Luther Burbank and biologists. Dr. Walter Pitkin has set 2100 A.D.

when all our offspring will be morons, which will be true, unless we can control these who now are feeble minded, from becoming parents. Mrs. Marie K. Loomis, Milton, la. Give me liberty to freely according to my liberties.

Almost five out of 10 Iowans follow the farmer's habit of against the rule of Caesar. But the letters fizzle out and apparently have no connection with the group which actually plots and carries out the assassination. Caesar knows all along that Catullus is writing scurrilous pieces about, him, but he so admires the poet that he not only does nothing to stop him but goes out of his way to be friendly. CAESAR'S LETTERS The most important papers in tha collection which is The Ides are Caesar's letters Lucius Mamilius Turrinus, a comrade of the Gallic Wars who has been crippled by battle woundsjand lives in seclusion on Capri. Caesar writes of the superstition and nonsense of the Roman religion.

He speaks of his premonition of death by a tyrannicide. He seems convinced of an ordained destiny about which he can do nothing "god" though he is. He confides of his love for Cleopatra and hints of his hurt when he catches her in the arms of Marc Antony. From history one absorbs the Impression of a self-sufficient and powerful master of men who rose in the chaotic later Roman republic days. In The Ides we see Caesar as the drifting, rather nonchalant victim of forces he doesn't understand.

He is a rather benign sort of a fellow who believes in liberty for the people but doesn't see how he can give them liberty. Only HE knows what's good for them. (In this one touch Wilder may be making commentary on modern dictatorship, but one has to "reach" to catch any such meaning.) In religious affairs, Caesar's intellect tells him it's all a bunch of tommyrot but he half believes much of it himself. He gropes toward an understanding of a single Force, and tells Lucius a little of his ideas about a single Deity to replace the many gods of the Roman religion. It is all good reading, as Wilder always is, and worth a dozen of the mine-run ef novels these days.

So it doesn't have a so it doesn't illuminate any great truths about democracy and freedom; so it doesn't reveal any hidden facets of the great Caesar. It still is a book that is good fun in the reading. That's just about the most you can ask of any. The Year's Most Charming Book? ALL TRIVIAL FOND RECORDS: By Allanah Harper. Harper.

$3. i Reviewed by Elizabeth Clarkson Zwart. THESE reminiscences of an English childhood and girlhood in London and the English countryside, in China, South Africa, Egypt, Italy, Germany, Spain, and France, may well be the most charming book of the year. It is written with a delicacy, a penetration, and a sense of taste that make it utterly delightful. The only child of an internationally famous British engineer, Allanah Harper traveled the world with her Nanny, who was a bit of a femme fatale, and with her mother, who was entirely a late-Edwardian and early-Georgian period-piece.

Formal education was neglected during her earlier years. Then followed some amazingly uninspiring school years. And Allanah was finally groomed and presented at the court of George with other debutantes of her circle. But Allanah Harper is a sensitive person, and she saw about her the beauty that no one ever thought worth pointing out to her. Her response to nature, to the countries she has known, to writing and painting, and to life itself was spontaneous.

She writes of all these things so freshly and so colorfully that her book is a delight, "All Trivial Fond Records" is also wise. But it is so quiet that it will probably be discovered by all too few appreciative readers.

Letter of Complaint From Sioux City To the Open Forum Editor: Have read your Sunday morning paper carefully and of course not at all surprised at your semi-annual or oftener "cheap advertising" of Sioux City. A lot of people imagine the picture of the men in the lobby of the Rutland hotel represents gambling, whereas they are probably respectable men with some pride whiling their time playing solitaire. I could collect a lot of better information and stories for you that would not cost you a cent. (They would be true stories.) Seems funny the re porter did not hear the name of the east end of Fourth street which it has been called for years. Will let you in on the secret.

Am not trying to protect the moral ity of Sioux City in any way but don't think Des Moines is any Ivory soap town (99 44100 per cent pure). I think it would take more than soap to clean your town.

Have written this mostly so that an apology might be made in regard to the connection that might be made in the story in reference to the picture of the old men who might have had much better surroundings except for misfortune or some other cause. Mearl Bergeson, 3732 Sixth Sioux City 20, la. EDITOR'S NOTE: There was no im plication intended in the descriptive words above and below the picture that the men were in any way involved in gambling. As to Des Moines not being a "pure" town, we have printed many columns in the past, and probably will print many more in the future about "conditions'' here. GOOD THINGS, TOO.

To the Open Forum Editor- I resent (and I am sure it is not just blind loyalty to my home town) the article in The Des Moines Sunday Register of Feb. 8. I object to anything which deliberately tears down any place or any person. I would like to probe the thinking of a reporter who writes such an article. I would like to have pointed out one single argument in favor of advertising the sordid side when there are so many fine, respectable and worthwhile business houses on Sioux City's Fourth street.

Not denying that Sioux City has, the same as any other town, some objectionable points, I maintain that it has more than its share of praiseworthy business and cultural projects. Why not recognize them? Mrs. Fred Hadley, 3901 Division Sioux City 18, la. SECOND-HAND GOODS. To the Open Forum Editor: A thought came to me recently.

If poor people, or those of moderate means, were asked to buy secondhand goods or articles, they would be glad to do so. But if the wealthy people or if the aristocracy were asked (to do so) they would refuse to do so, but they do not hesitate to pick up a divorced person. That certainly is also second-hand goods. L.

Living, as we do, in Eldora, neighbors to the training school for boys, which is filled with boys from broken homes, drunken parents, indifferent mothers and some with no parents at all, it seems to me we need some education about, marriage and child raising.

Wm. Bridgett, Spring Valley, Minn. SPECIOUS EVASION. The attempt to make TJMT appear to be anything else than conscription is deliberately dishonest. It is a specious evasion of the plain and universally accepted meaning of an English word.

In 1946 we voted for an assessor locally, one who knew the local conditions and values, also the integrity of the ones being assessed.

Thanks to our present legislature and the one signing the bills, in 1948 we will not vote for an assessor. This right of franchise and self government has disappeared. Instead we will take what is appointed us, perhaps one not acquainted with local values and people. Therefore step by step our American way of life is being put away. Many excuses and reasons are given but it boils down to this.

Someone decided the people were either too dishonest or too ignorant to govern themselves. Loren Hinshaw, Richland, la. ACCUSATION AGAINST U. N. The truth is that the U.

QUESTIONS ABOUT FLOOD CONTROL To the Open Forum Editor: Can we afford to take Iowa land out of production, displacing many agricultural workers, by damming our rivers for the control of high waters? What measure of protection from floods can we hope to have from these projects? If the same expenditures were placed out on the acres for conservation would we not have much more protection and security? What disposal could be made of "the accumulations of silt? A conservation program begins paying dividends right from the start and grows" in value as the years go by. High waters come only on occasions, and the annual cost of a project may exceed its probable savings.

We would still have the same water volume, with increased hazards above the dam. Where dikes and levees are needed why not build them back farther from the river's bank? Every foot gained in width would lower the crest of any flood. We are crowding our streams too severely with buildings which should be farther back. Bottom lands given over to timber and grass would not be wasted, and a hazard to nobody. Where necessary to place buildings on the river's bank they should be built to take what comes.

Let the dams be built where powr or irrigation is needed, and keep the Iowa soil for cultivation. W. C. Boyer, 115 S. Second Mount Vernon, la.

NEED CITED FOR YOUTH CENTERS To the Open Forum Editor Lately the reports of juvenile delin quency court cases have come out in several Iowa newspapers. The only way to cut down that rate is through planned recreation and have parental guidance in the home. Many youths never will know the pleasures of being able to call one part of a whole town theirs and help keep it fairly and honestly by having elections, offices and simple tasks which make them appreciate what they've got now. It's their property and they'll take care of it. The broad-minded parents of Corning students helped them make their center and are trying to help them keep it.

In many Iowa towns the young people are offered exactly nothing for recreation. Young people aren't particular. A place to sit and drink a coke and relax, a small dance floor, a juke box and some games like table tennis could be put in small space and keep youth occupied for hours. Why doesn't somebody start some kind of movement toward broadening people's minds and give youth a chance to show their good judgment and self-management? DeLores Peterson, Box 442, Algona, la. WORKING HOURS.

To the Open Forum Editor: Looks like our congressmen think we working men should work longer than 40 hours (a week). Why can't we work the same time that they do?

The same number of city residents prefers the heaviest meal in the evening. Townspeople still lean toward the noon meal tradition.

These findings on Iowa's eating habits are shown in a recent survey by THE IOWA POLL. Eating Well. Regardless of what time of the day they eat, Iowans are apparently eating well today. The average Iowan, in spite of today's high food prices, mm mm. manages to consume the essential foods for good health as recommended by diet experts.

The daily diet should include meat or fish, eggs, milk, fruits and juices, vegetables, potatoes, cereals, bread and butter, according to the bureau of home economics of the federal department of agriculture. At least five out of 10 Iowans, according to the poll, eat these required foods practically every day. Eight out of 10 eat meat or fish, milk, potatoes and bread every day. Better than seven out of 10 eat the required amounts of vegetables (not potatoes) and butter. Raw Vegetables.

Iowans show the greatest deficiency in raw vegetables. Close adherence to daily food requirements is much less pronounced among the low income groups. About six out of 10 in the low income group are not up to standard in daily consumption of raw vegetables and fruits and Juices. Deficiencies are also very noticeable in regard to high-priced items such as butter, eggs and meat.
