The point- was that they rep- - csented shades of new tnougnt, ana tne endemy fathers had not approved of the shades, that was all there was to Mr. Lie did not hesitate to invoke 4h wnril rnnRrrvatiVfi to refer to the academicians who threw out the thirteen brethren. \Wh lo on the subject of shades Mr, Lie stnted that allied with the cause of THE SUN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1919. tho blackballed thirteen was the vital matter of pastel nnd black and white drawings.
