Prime Minister Addresses Can. Authors Ass’n;

OTTAWA, June M-(By The Canadian Press)—The sober-mind- Id people of this country have a. true appreciation of what Can- adian writers have done, the Prime Minister told the members of the Canadian Authors Association to- day. The literature of a people plays a large part in forming a‘ nation's mind, and he himself was proud of all that Canadians had achieved. He hoped that oppor- tunities would increase for widen- ing the proper appreciation earned by the literary men and women oi Danada.

It augured well for the country. lir. Bennet said, that writers should some to the Capital in order to ex- change ideas. While those who were actively engaged in the pol- itical life of Canada. might be more

' SCORES FBAUDULENT CIITICS

UITAWA. June ZS—-DOCIII'MJODS that "critics who do not read tbs books they review are frauds," and that the tardy progress of Cm- adlan literature is partly due to “the deplorable state of editing and publishing" were made today by William Deacon, of Toronto.

Mr. Deacon, addressing the llth annual convention of the Canad- ian Authors Association, warned the authors to “pay no attention to critics, whose business is with the public." 9- "I wish to ssy that I know that the tardy progress of Canadian literature is partly due to the de- plorable state of editing and pub- lishing in this country," he said. "But I also must tell you that if any of you hcd anything vital to say, and the courage to ssy it, you

Deacon concluded.

vociferous than the authors and might be more in the public eye, nevertheless many of the works oi the writers would survive when the politicians had been forgotten.

The Association today was the guest of the Prime Minister, those present including also members if zhe government, the British High Commissioner, Sir William. Clark, Ind other notables.

Early sessions today were taken up with discussing the "mechanics" of authorship. Papers were read by W. A. Deacon, Toronto; Hugh S. Eayn, President of the Mac- Millan Publishing Co, of Canada, by Leslie Gordon Barnard and Leslie Roberts.

To expect Canadians to purchase books inst because the writers thereof were natives of this coun- try was to invite disaster, several speakers asserted. Canadians were no more disposed to buy bad books because they were Canadian than they were disposed to ignore good Canadian books. The quality of the product was the essential fac- tor in the appeal of a book.

"If the Canadian writer can not stand upon his own merits, he lhould go out oi the business," was lbs dictum of Mr. Roberts. Present ‘day tendencies were towards cheap- I editions, Mr. Eayrs said.

"I must confess that the pub- Itching business has shown less lggressiveness and worse organ- btion than any other business in existence," he said, snswerng a question with regard to advertis- hig. One of the drawbacks in cre- sting public demand was that the publishing house was always deal- ing with a new product with each new book.

A number of speakers deplored the lack o.’ competent Canadian Illtics.

The tariff on magazines was criticised. The Canadian writer was necessarily an exporter. Mr- lcberts told the members. and he lould see no reason why 10M!!! magazines should not enter this lountry free of duty. yvme Association today extended grwelcome t6 James HODPHL W!" lent of the Authors Guild of the United States.

critic nor of the value of ‘the critic in showing the author whether he ls. had succeeded or failed.

Warning against “self-conscious Canadianism" was given by Leslie ‘on Gordon Barnard, of Montreal. l-Ie a declared the author should not be tied down by restriction of locale.

The Association decided today, m’ view of the present economic con- '3; dltions, to make no appeal to the‘ Federal Government for sssisuance' for the Authors‘ Foundation Fund.
