P.E.N. CLUB
FAMOUS WRITERS GO TO BUDA PEST. The international congress of the P.E.N. Club, which opened in the academy cn Whit Sunday, brought a representative gathering of foreign authors to Buda Pest (writes the London Observer’s Buda Pest correspondent). Mr and Mrs John Galsworthy presided over the English members, and the organisers were informed that Mr Dennis Bradley and Mr Owen Bullen intend to row themselves from Vienna to Buda Pest. A large delegation from Italy was led by Marinetti. Pirandello was also expected with his son, and the wellknown author, Massmo Bontempelli. From France come Andre Gide (who is making a motor car tour of Europe), Jules Romain and the eminent critic, Cremieux. Germany sent Bluncke, Toller, and Daubler; Austria, Felix Salten; and Holland, Armere Kuhler. Karin-Mic-haelis, whose name will never be dissociated from her earlier novel, ‘ The Dangerous Age,” represented Denmark with the poet Nexo. Certain colonies were represented by M ; ss Georgina Sime, and California by Pi’ofessor Alexander Kaum, who holds the chair for Slav languages in the Berkeley University.
