Literature is commercialized. It is
like the "star” system which has been
the bane of the American stage. Just
as our acting and playwriting have
sudercd from undue emphasis on the
actor, so our literature suitors from
writersflthat is, the writers popular
at the moment.
The effect, says Mr. Roll, the
“cverwcrkinx of the authors who have
is
names. Magazines clamor for their
work, because their names have sell
lug power. They write too much, too
rapidly, too carelessly. They forsake
their art and seek the money while
they can get it. Thus they produce
vast quantities of “rot" instead of real
literature, weakening their powers,
and in the end even destroying their
own vogue.

books. A generation ago, when our
country had half its present popula-
tion, we had between 3,000 and 4,000
booksellers. Now we have only 1,500.
But we have 100,000 stands soiliug_
periodicals and newspapers.
Book production is usually regarded
as the measure of a nation's enlight-
enment. it we accept that standard,
Mr. liolt‘s criticism seems well found-
ed. We publish in this country 10,000
books a year. “Darkest Russia" pub-
lishes nearly three times that many.
Even in its per capita production 0!
books Russia is ahead of us. Great
llritain produces twice as many books
as we do in proportion to population:
so does France. Germany produces
nearly four times as many.
The government’s responsibility
seems to consist in the fact that it
charges higher postage rates for
books than {or periodicals. “The gov:
ernlnent carries the Police Gazette at
in cent upound," says Mn Holt and
charges eight times as lnillil1.) (any
