HanmerStein Bids
100000 for 3
Arbuckle Films
That Failing, He Would Show
Them Throughout U. s. on
Commission Plan.

Arthur Hammerstein yesterday Of
fered $1,000 900 to the Famous Players
Lasky Corporation for the three finished
comedies by Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle,
which are now lying on their shelves.
Some time ago Hammerstein made a
similar offer to the corporation. AS the
ban placed on the Arbuckle pictures by
VIII H. Hays was still in effect at the
time. Famous Players-Lasky did not
accept. Recently Paramount, the or
ganization which distributes the Ar
buckle comedies. was understood TO be
ready to scrap the Arbuckle pictures.
Failing the outright purchase OF the
pictures, Hammerstein informed Adolph
Zukor. president of Famous Players
Lasky, and Jesse l.. Lasky. first vice.
president. that he stood ready TO turn
exhibitor and present the pictures for
them on a commission basis in any part
of the country, even where feeling
against the actor was reported to be
most hostile,
At the offices OF the Motion Picture
Producers and Distributors OF America
1t was said that Mr.. Hays. now EN- route
from Los Angeles. will not arrive here
till after the New Year. II was said
that few protests had been received
there against his action in reinstating
Arbuckle and that there had been a
number of Endorsements from prominent
persons
The Rev. DR.. S. Parkes Cadman. pas
tor of the Central Congregational
Church, In Brooklyn. speaking at the
Bedford branch of the Y NJ. c. A. in
Brooklyn. was asked II he approved the
reinstatement of Roscoe (Fatty) Ar
buckle In the firm world.
1T swould seem under the circum-
stances that Arbuckle has the right to
make an honest living" replied DR.. Cad
man. but that type Of man should seek
some other mode of living-take up the
shovel and dig. for instance. But 1t is
up to the public to decide whether his
pictures shall again have vogue. l do
not know the reason for Mr. Hays's ac-
ton, but I do know the film industry
wants cleaning UP. Hays hasn't cleaned
1t up"
Brooklyn clubwomen feel that Ar
buckle ought to wait year or more.

SECRETS" a play. by Rudolf Besies
and May Edginton, at the Fulton The
Lavender and Old stun.

A little something of the form and
interest that "Milestones" had sus-
tains the English romance which, has
brought the sure footed and winsome
Margaret Lawrence to the Fulton
Theater. 1t is a panorama play
which, for reasons a little better
known to the authors than to your
correspondent is called Secrets y
Those authors are Rudolph Besier
and May Edginton the former known
vaguely TO New Workers. as the author
Of the play called "Don," which a few
of them saw at the New Theater more
than ten years ago. and of Lady Pa
tricia," the frothy comedy which still
fewer of them saw when Mrs. Fiske
played II briefly a little later. May
Edginton is not known at all.
From certain clues rather noisily
dropped in the prologue, we gathered
that there is between each man and
wife a binding secret known TO them
and to them alone in all the world.
Just what the secret was that was
thus locked in the hearts of the man
and woman, whose journey together
through the years this play follows.
we never discovered with any sense
OF certainty, but perhaps it eluded us
In the drowsiness which the last act
begat last evening or was drowned out
by the discussion of the plumbing at
home which was carried on briskly by
another man and woman-the two sit
ting back of us.
However, though the theme of the
play seemed a trifie beclouded, we
found it interesting to watch the years
working their changes in the people
OF Secrets" Time is always the
most interesting character in a play
anyway. apd il is the caprices and
inexorabilities of time which enter
tain us most in this piece at the
Fulton.
Between its scenes generation may
elapse and the contrasts they bring
are engrossing things Here we have
little Mary Mdrlotce at her fathers
home in 1857, all hedged round with
her mothers notions that the Pre-
Raphaelites are scarcely fit to be men
toned in young lady's bedroom and
all a-fiutter because she is going to a
dance that night in new pink gown
with a fascinator over her head.
Three years later and we see her
snowbound in a Wyoming rancher's
shack rocking the rude cradle in
which her baby sleeps and cooking
her pistol for the cattle thieves. whose
vengeance is sworn upon her husband.
Eighteen years later she is celebrat-
ing her forty-frst birthday at her
home in Portchester Terrace, telling
her children all about that cory and
violent night back in Wyoming and
gently leaving out the very mention
of things she did and said in those
days without a thought. But in one
respect there has been no change
The Yes, John" with which she
eloped so docilely back in the COS
from her home in Black Heath is still
her gospel of life. and though she has
just run across the track of the latest
OF quite a sequence of Johns mis-
tresses she is still murmuring Yes
John" She is still murmuring il as
she totters to his sickbed thirty five
years later.
The regularity and even ostenta-
ton with which John at all the inn
portant junctures in their life retreats
to slightly inconvenient point and
says. Mary. come here. I want you

THE REVIEWING STAND
By Alexander Woollcott

and the meekness with which she
trots TO his side suggest that cer-
tain comment on this new tangled
feminism is intended by the obviously
reactionary and probably sententious
authors. But perhaps this was merely
an unconscious mirroring of manners
in an Englishman's castle.
The procession OF the fashions-the
shift from crinolines To bustles, from
bustles 10 the skirts Of to-day-keeps
Secrets" always an interesting pic
ture, and Miss Lawrence, well backed
up by Tom Nesbitt, keeps 1t fairly
charming.
