Churchill Turned l To Painting As _ Outlet For Worry '

‘By GLENN WILLIAMS LONDON, Dec. 7 — (AP) - Winston Churchill took u/p paint- ing as an outlet for xvorry. he says in a new book to be published to- morrosv.

London critics hailed the thin volume of two essays as an exam- ptlo of Churchill‘: writing at its best and said it contained much worthy advice on the use of leis- ure time.

The book is “Painting As A Pastime." (published by Odhams Press. Limited, and Ernest Benn, Limited).

Churchill did not. begin paint- ing until he was 40, but he be- came expert enough to have some of his paintings hung in the Royal‘ Academy's ‘annual exhibition of outstanding new work.

During the Finst World War, when he was relieved in 1915 of day-to-day executive duties as head of the Admiralty but non- tinued as a member of the warl cabinet, ha says he had "longi hours of utterly unwontcd leisure in which to contemplate the fateful unlioldin of the war."

"I had great anxiety and no means of relieving it," ha says. ‘Then it was that the muse of painting came to my rescue ..."

After s day's experiments with a child's paint box, he bought a full outfit for oil painting - brushcs, tubes of’ paints, easel, canvas, palette.

‘lihe stretch of canvas daunted him. "My hand seemed arrested by a silent veto." he says.

But the sky was pale blue, "a starting point open to all.’ I This tlmidlty was far from thel usual Churchiliian attack. y A woman friend, Lady Lavery, gifted as an artist. drove up about’ that time and seized rt big brush from this affrlghted beginner. I Bhs proceeded, Churchill recalls, to "slash into the turpentine, wal- lovp into the blue and the white. make a frantic flourish on the‘ palette _ clean no lcngcr -_ and then several large, fierce strokes‘ and slashes of blue on the absol-

NEW YORK. Dec. 7 — (CP) — Barbara Ann Scott was officially welcomed to New York City late today at a brief ceremony in City Hail. Mayor William 0'Dwyer. un- able to meet her train this morn- ing. gave the Ottawa skater the freedom of the city.

The pretty, 20-year-old world champion figure skater sperlt a hectic day visiting theatre officials.

Everywhere she went, celebrity- accustomed New Yorkers stopped to stare. Many of them whispered: "That's Barbara Ann Scott." and cthers quickly brought out paper and pencil and asked for her auto- graph.

In the early morning. hundreds of commuters who arrived at the station about the same time Barb- ara Ann's train pulled in, stopped to watch more than a. dozen news- paper and newsreel photographers while they spent half an hour making the figure skater pose.

On hand to greet her before breakfast were Hugh D. Scully, Canadian consul - general here and Col. John J. Bennett, deputy mayor of the city.

"It was so kind of you to come down to meet me." she told Bennett for the cameras. "Especially so early in the morning - and with- out. breakfast."

Her professional debut at the Roxy Theatre in two weeks “L! one of the most exciting things that has ever happened to me." she ssld.

Tuesday morning aha gets down to work on the Roxy's tiny ice stage - 32 feet by 40. Rehearsals have to be in the early morning hours before the theatre opens to the public. Next week, she will rehearse with the entire cast in the late evenings.

Making up his mind to become acquainted with this solicitor, Le- maire, O'Hara. drove himself into Bisrritz during the third after- noon, giving Rittenburg a hint as to what he was doing. But when he called at the office just behind the Casino gardens. a clerk in- formed him that the solicitor had gone that morning to Paris, and might not be back for u week. Disappointed and not seeing what good he could do in Biarrit, ho was about to return to the Chateau when a hand was laid on his arm. It was Carnot. of the Surete, with an expression of sup- prlsed amusement m his aluewd e

“An excellent meeting. m'sieurl" he greeted. "And what brings you in here? Not, I hope, to say any harm has come to madmoiselle?" "On the contrary. she is with so many peoplg that the chance of any harm coming to her is small." O'Hara was replying when the other laughed:

“No need to tell me that. My men reported that. a colony of film-artists moved up there last night."

“Your men?" O’l-lara stared at him, "I haven't seen any about", "You won't, unless they've been instructed to introduce themselves to you. All the same, no harm in having s. colony of film-artists around as well, I assure you. Whose idea?"

"Actually-mime. It's company for Miss Fsyna. anyhow. It frees me s bit. You see-I'm interestcd

“In msdmolselle? ‘But, of course! Could you be anything else?" The twinkle in Camot"s eyes made O'Hara flush hotly despite him- self.

"My interest in her is purely through the fact that she has the Chateau. and I was born thcre—" "Surely!" the other nodded, laughing. "We will put it that way if you wish, m‘sleur. And. because of the Chateau you want to get at the root of this curious business

signs on the city. The 86.2 per cent vote against Communism is being hailed

Whroughout. the western world as

a great victory, which it is. But it seems to me that the other angle is of more lasting importance.

The fact that 86.2 per cent voted st all. in the face of Russian ti-lreals and Russian propaganda that the Allies would eventually pull out of Berlin. is the big thing. It represents faith in the Allied commitment to stay in Berlin; faith that people who stand for Democracy will not be abandoned to Communist reprisais; faith that those who struggle for human rights will win eventually, and faith in the material strength demonstrated to the Berliners through the air lift.

The election result also lays, st least so far ls Berlin is concerned. a ghost which was being raised in Germany when I was there recent- ly. There were reports that many cynical Germans were joining the Communist Party in an effort to bum their candles st both ends. The idea, supposedly. was that they could protect themselves in clue of a Communist victory, while there was no danger of Allied retaliation anyway.

If thera had been anything to this it should have made its ap- pearance right under the mission guns more plainly than anywhere else. But dispatches from Berlin say that even people who had been expected to follow Communist cxhortations not to vote cast their ballots. If that is true of Berlin it should be doubly true in the weat- em zones, where Communist in- fluenoe seems to have been drop- ping steadily.

The success of the Social Democrats- who obtained more than 60 per cent of tho vote. is of great long-range significance. This is the nearest German count- erpart of the British Labor Party and advocates a similar program. It was opposed by t/wo Conservative groups. the Christian Democrats who are heavily Catholic and the Liberal Democrats. Allied observ- ers quickly interpreted the vote as an important lift for the Social- ists throughout the western who.
