Lawrence Grossmith, the English
comedian who will be seen in one
of the leading roles OF Little Miss
RafIies," which the Messrs. Shubert
will present at the Playhouse, De-
cember -, 10 and IA, is very much
upset over question which is ask
ed OF him from about eight out OF
every ten Americans with whom he
comes in contact. The question is
this: us there really any vital and
fundamental difference between the
humor of the American and the
Britisher2"
"rhat question always provokes
me tremendously" said Mr.. Gros-
smith, because there IS no more
difference between English and
American humor than there is be-
tween English tragedy and Ameri-
can tragedy. All humor, whether II
be English or American, depends
upon the seriousness with which the
person trying to be humorous acts
the fool. This may sound like a
paradox, but 1t Is one of the most
extraordinary paradoxes which are
vitally true. II an actor does not
enter into his humor with the full
possession of his senses and all his
faculties, he misses the most of il.
To be humorous II is necessary 20
lose oneself in ones part, retaining
just sufficient interpretive faculties

Says Wallace

"The United States would not have
been in the. industrial dumps today
s.had some way been found for the
people in need to buy our, farm sup
plies at prices which would cover the
cost Of production" says the secre~
tary Of agriculture in his annual re-
port to the pesident. "Under such an
arrangement" the secretary says,
"the American farmer would have
been prosperous and the country
would have prospered with him.

The farmer felt his responsibility

and, producing his crops on faith,
finds himself at present in sad plight,
due to combination Of drastic price
