They pointed out that the piece brought to eng land from Anidos in 1859, was not neglected shrouded or in a Dank Hole. It was open to View above ground in the museum s Reserve collection and had Long been the subject of Exten Sive study. But they published no tailed or so to speak official answer to the several Points which the winsome and con to piously enthusiastic Ameri can excavator had adduced to to support her identification. It now appears however that the keeper or curator of the museum s greek and roman department Denys e. L. Haynes made his professional reply six months later in lecture in Berlin.

Runs a Kennel club publishes a dog s newspaper and hates taxes and state control. So he has formed Anders Lange s party Alp to Campaign for drastic reduction of taxes and Public the Alp is far from being All bark and no bite. The Fer Vency of its supporters his projected it to the political forefront and it May emerge from next septem Bergener Al election As Norway s third biggest party. The party no political program in the traditional sense of a party Plank explaining us political View and goals. It considers Ita name is Lange a party for drastic reduction of taxes and Public encroachments. Public response to lie a peal has been Swift. Support for the Alp. As reflected in Public opinion Polle his turned Norway s ruling labor party and tha other traditional political group Ings. The latest poll showed that about 17 per cent of those who responded would consider voting for the Alp in the sep tember elections. If they the party will finish third after labor and the conservatives. The Alp is not a tightly organized party. Lange bitterly anti labor Saya it is a party made by the people for the people. It is left to supporters on the spot to organize them elves. There is a similarity be tween Lange s party and that of the danish politician Mogens Glistrup which May emerge As the second biggest in Denmark in the next elec Tion on its anti tax and an to bureaucratic program. Glistrup 50, is a tax specialist popularly known As Zero per cent for his ability to bring taxes Down to Zero including his own. Lange has made sweeping promises for drastic reductions of norwegian taxes though he has not gone As far As the danish who has promised to away with All income tax and fire 90 per cent of Denmark s civil servants. Lange in principle opposes All forms of income tax but favors indirect taxation. Lange is strongly anti communist but on one Point he says he could accept a soviet tips Lem. I am very interested in the soviet form of he says. If their system of taxation is better then we should adopt Lange Calls for the abolition of All stale offices except Public health. When direct taxation disappears there will no longer be any Point in lax authorities and 4.000 men and women will be fired Al though there might be some people to exercise control Over payment of indirect taxes. says in Bis opinion women should not be politicians.

Miss love claimed they matched the corresponding distances in two of the known copies of the aphrodite head those in the Vatican and louvre museums. But or. Haynes noted that More extensive compari sons had been done years ago with nine known copies and while some of the dimensions by Don Oberdorfer Seoul special tons line month after presiden Ark Chung Nee imposed mar Ial Law and radically altered South Korea s political ins Titu ions hardly any opposition is n Public View. However a re cent and continuing round of arrests May be a sign of ten Ion beneath the surface. Since March the government Las made known the arrests of More than 70 civilians on sub version or espionage charges. The indications Are that Many f not most of these Are Dis enters or social critics. In addition maj. Gen. Yun in Yong one of the most pow Raul and strategically placed military officers was court martial led and imprisoned on corruption charges along with Ine other officers close to in. A number of businessmen and other civilians Allied with in also were taken into Cus Ody. Last week the staff of the sensitive army Security com Mand Brig. Gen. Kim Kiu us was arrested on corruption charges. Because of tight information control it is difficult to know whether corruption cases involve political manoeuvring. As if to tighten up on Possi ble demonstrations the govern ment in mid july promulgated a decree restricting outdoor meetings in the country major cities. A detailed report on All outdoor gatherings mus be submitted to authorities Advance including the name of All speakers and summaries of what they will say. The decree also bans Leaf lets placards badges or cloth ing which May threaten the social order. Among the civilians Thi most celebrated recent Arres was that of Rev. Pak Hyong of no. 1314 fell within the various ranges of the Severa copies others did not. In any event he added the measurable features were too few to allow comparisons of any value and they could neither prove nor disprove miss love s Contention. Posture miss love claimed the bearing of the head Tilting slightly to the left and the musculature of the neck matched the known copies. On the contrary countered he had studied exactly Hal proposition and found no. 1314 absolutely a reconcilable with a British museum copy of the praxiteles aphrodite a copy that is undoubtedly accurate and one which shows precisely these of the head on its shoulders and its Carriage. Execution miss love found the workmanship of the British museum head so Superb that she Felt it had to be b y praxiteles. She significance to a tiny spot on the surface whose execution she saw As identical to the highly polished porcelain like skin on the most Famou of the extant works of the great sculptor the Hermes of Olympia. Well said or Haynes there were other great greek artists in the 4th Century b.c., and while the British head is undoubtedly of that period and splendidly worked that did t mean it was necessarily by praxiteles and besides a subjective judgment in a matter of this sort scarcely rates As fact. For the tiny it must have been so tiny As to have escaped notice by the museum s most exact examination of every Square Cen. I m e t r c on the head. Or. Haynes said that study showed the surface to be uniformly of Dull Matte finish the result of patient rubbing with an abrasive and nowhere evidencing High polish. To twist the knife a bit further with an implication of shabby scholarship or. Haynes added that Given the grave doubts of a number of authorities on the e subject was it not above All somewhat rash for miss love to have accepted without question or reservation that the olympian Hermes was indeed by praxiteles having taken miss love s evidence apart at the joints ill. Haynes turned to considerations she seemed to have overlooked. The main one was hat the head in the museum had clearly been worked on piece of Marble from thai of the body. The Marble on the of the head Hai been deliberately knocked of even the kind of chisel tha did it has been adduced it permit it to be covered with a veil or Mantle of the same Marble used for the drapery o the body. Further the head is let rough at the of the neck and so also the cars clearly a veil or Mantle had been super imposed. But the copies of the praxiteles statue show the head uncovered the ears fully carved and showing below the coiffure hair and the neck revealed in its entirety. What then was no. 1314? Well Newton found a statue of a seated Demeter in the Anidos tre Menos inscriptions suggest that there was a standing figure of her daughter Kore per behind her. That luckless Maiden abducted to the underworld by hades would have been mantled Given the location of the find of the British museum head the Clear indication of drapery or. Haynes has no hesitation in accepting the judgment of an earlier scholar who one year before miss love spotted the neglected object pronounced it the head of the Kore statue. Soft and is currently being tried in a series of court hearings. One of the most Well publicized recent espionage cases was that of Kim Nak lung general Secretary of Korea University s labor education and research Institute. He and 10 of his followers mostly stud ii s at the prestigious University were accused of spying for North Korea and encouraging activities. Or. Kim had gone to North Corea in 1955 As a student eader and was promptly arrested by police on his return n 1956. He was Given a suspended sentence but served a free year prison term beginning in 1962 for arranging a rip to North Korea for a Riend. All this happened More ban a decade ago. According to persons who Lave attended his trial on the current charges no Concrete of spying has been brought out. Instead the ques zoning centres on his trip to lie North 18 years ago. Friends of his believe the gov in men s most serious com lain is his labor Union vice of democracy in Asia was convicted on june 1 of defaming president pork and sentenced to 10 months imprisonment. The remarks about Park for which he was arrested and tried this year were made during the political campaigns of 1967 and 1969 three to five years ago. Only the official version of these and other cases been permitted in the controlled korean press. Some of the arrests took place Many weeks before they were announced officially. Though they were Well known through the Rumor Grapevine nothing was allowed in print. Late in Juse the weekly journal of the korean journalists association carried an article by a University professor and former journalist deploring the Lack of information in the korean press. The article circulated widely among journalists in Seoul pointed out that citizens have come to depend on Rumor and gossip for their news rather than the obviously incomplete formal news Media.
