Working on New Novel-Pinero Sue cumbs to Lure of the Movies. Bennett's Great Adven-
 ture" to Be Filmed
By HAYDEN CHuRCH

London, May 9.-(Specia1) - Roy Norton of U. s. A, who has been down at Torquay, in Devonshire, for the last couple of months working on a new novel which is to be made into a play later on, turned up in town a day or two ago, and obligingly let me inter- view him for the best part of an hour.
 He says that his new story is on the same general lines as that big suc- cess of his, "The Boomers" and that he has undertaken to develop its plot, later. in play form at the request of Norman McKinnell, the English actor manager who has been seen in the United States so frequently of late notably in Rutherford and Son." and who is one of the most scholarly men on the English stage
 Meanwhile Nortons account of what he observed In Germany just prior to the war, which originally was pub lished in the dignified "Contemporary Review" under the title of "The Man of Peace" and since then has been paid the high compliment of inclusion in the Oxford university series of pam- phlet dealing with the war, is at the moment being translated into seven foreign languages Italian, Swedish Roumanian, Creek German, Bulgarian and Spanish-"whch leads me to the belief" observed the naturally grati- fled American author, that the inten. ton is to circulate it in neutral coun- tries"
 Norton who was born in Illinois, but who claims New Jersey as his "home,' remains as American as if he had not been wandering about Europe for the last 12 or 3 years He had been 1iv- ing in Germany for over a year when the war began. and previously had lived in Russia for nearly two. sojourn. ing in Moscow, Petrograd, Warsaw Kishineff and a lot of other place He thinks highly of the Russians and Is by no means sure that it will not be they. and not England that will prove. IS he phrases 1t, "the quiet man in the corner of the saloon that always cleans out the big swaggering bully that has come in to shoot up the town"
 Tells Wonderful Tales
 Torquay, where he has been working, is only couple of miles from Paignton, where the big hospital founded by the American women in England and housed in Paris Singers country house. is located, and Norton has had many talks with the wounded men, as well as with the sur- geons in attendance. and wonderful in
