HONEST JIM BLUNT"

Honest Jim Blunt 10y William Poden

tire, Is described on the programme as
IAN eNtravagant comedy" Ii ce~'ainlv
bellies that description. for there il moth
Ing cXtrayagant about the situations
which deal IN only n slightly exaggerated
manner. and often more in the spirit Of
fact than Of fiction. with the rusc1 en-
ployed 10y promoters I'm "stalling or" dis
satisfied investing clients and otherwise
continuing to live at the expense of
gullibie public. Honest Jim Bum Is a
little different from the average Wall
Street promoter in that he seems 20 be
more Of an idealist, indulging hie financial
imagination for tho mere sake ~ indulg-
Ing IL than e cunning swindler coid-blood-
edly bent on getting the money Of the
dupes on whose weaknesses he plays.
One great merit Of the piece is its re-
straiut IN style. Wall Street has been
done 20 death in the ticker style OF
drama. But though one Of the scenes IN

freshingly free from Wan street or New
street local color The piece contains
many clever lines and will entertain the
average audience. It's chief Shortcomings
f. that Il contains no genuine dramatic
idea and exhibits little vitality in the de-
veopmeut Of either plot or character.
Mr. Tim Murphy took tho part of the
modern Mulberry Sellers. who is always
equal TO inventing a stall on the in

fcctive IN some OF the scenes. but didn't
