''The Man Inside"
Roland B. Milineux's drama of crime,
''The Man Inside" with the usual fine
Belasco stage settings, is drawing large
audiences to the Criterion theater. It IS
very interesting study of crooks and
their way and quite true to nature, so
far as l know. There is much to please
in the play and much to make one think
after he gets home. But whether Mr..
AlilineuX's ideas for the rehabilitation
of crooks are good or not is beyond me.
