SEARCH FOR THE
FILM LORELEI
GOES ON

Wallace Berry as Lorelei and
Pola Negri as Dorothy in the
screen production OF Gentlemen
Prefer Blondes" is one OF the
1900 suggestions received at the
Paramount Hollywood studios in
response to Jesse l.. Lasky's re.
quest for opinion as to who should
be cast in the role of Lorelei Lee.
The suggestion was filed with the
others.
The letters bringing suggestions
come from all parts of the world.
The suggestions are of wide range.
A girl in Massachusetts, wrote to
Mr.. Lasky asking him il he really
believed that gentlemen prefer
blondes. II hope they do" she
said, "as am a blonde myself"
The selection of a 'Lorelei" will
not be made until Anita Loos,
author of Gentlemen Prefer
Blondes" returns from her vaca-
ton in France. Miss Loos Ia
said to have several Continental
actresses under consideration.

In the native tongue, the National
Theater Players this week success
fully essay the Abbott Weaver
comedy of life in a boarding house.
Somewhat unique in plot con-
struction and decidedly effective in
comic dialogue, Love EN- and
Leave EN-" is an ideal play for
summer stock. Its first act re-
fleets the influence of Weaver's
verses-American character COM
edy with an undertone of tragedy.
In the second act, melodrama is
introduced and skillfully fused
with the dramatic elements already
at work. But the third act is the
WOW!
The dWellers in the Woodruff
boarding house are, for the pur-
poses of the play, employees Of the
great store of G. ID. Ginsburg. The
time Is near for the annual Gins
burg show, and little jamie Walsh
has collected enough money in
dues from the employees to pay for
the rental of Mechanics Hall.
jamie has also stolen her sisters
sweetie, Bill Billingsley, and is
playing the races on the advice of
Lem Woodruff, the useless lord Of
the manor.
JAMES luck il as weak as her
character, and when the pinch
comes, she reveals herself fail
ure. But Sister Name comes
through splendidly, winning back
the missing money in most I'M
expected way.
Woven through the romance of
jamie and Name is the story OF
the production of the great Gins
burg show, eliminating in
mirthful dress rehearsal in the
last act. For such a slight COM
ady, Love EN- and Leave En-"
is remarkably well-knit and
worthy of patronage.
The part OF jamie goes to
Dorothy Tierney, and she plays
it for every bit it's worth. She
has not done better work this
season. I1eona Powers is al
ways in command of her abilities
as Name, and j. Glynn Mac.
FarIane does well as Billingsley.
Romaine Calender acquires
New York accent and a humor-
ously stupid expression for the
part of Kenyon. Karl Nielsen
does the pep director satisfaetor-
lily. Hamilton Phillips, Charles
Hampden, Lorraine Bernard and
William Phelps work hard
enough to merit much praise.
The comedy presents a dis
tinct character in each part, and
it's laugh lines register without
fail. AT first it seemed that the
humor might be little too fast
for the audience, but the house

POP LAEMMLE IS
DAD TOABIG
IDEA

Carl Laemmle. president OF Uni
versal Pictures Corporation, has
just announced an innovation to
be inaugurated with Universal
Jewels for the fall. In each of
these features, and in Universaps
new siIpers, a title containing a
repetition Of the cast of char.
acters will be added to the end
Of the picture.
Thus, those persons who enter
the theater after the main title
of picture has been run off,
or who do not catch or remember
the various characters and the
players names, will be able to
refresh their memories at the end
of the showing. This move on
the part of Laemmle is made at
the request of many motion pic
ture patrons who have been in
correspondence with him.
Taking only few seconds at
the end of the picture, the re-
peated cast subtitle will enable
the public to check each players
work and will go far, in the esti-
nation of motion picture men to
heighten public interest in indi-
vidual players, especially players
in small roles who stand out by
reason of good work.

On War and Danger of War

Dor Party. 1t is limited to voting
against war credits, to the advocacy
of individual and collective refusal to
do military service and to transport
arms in the event of war. This group
is coming more and more under the
influence of the Labor Party and is
captivating before British imperial
ism. This pseudo-socialist pacifism is
dangerous because it creates among
the workers the illusion that social
democracy, at least its pacifist Sec
ton, is prepared to fight against war.
AS a matter of fact it only helps to
suppress the question of genuine mass
methods of struggling against war.
Tactical Questions in the Struggle
Against Imperialist Wars.
&c. Lenin's presentation of the
question of war determines the tactics
OF the Communist Parties for an en-
tire historical epoch, the epoch of inn
perialist wars. Slogans like "War
Against War" Convert the imperial
list war into civil war;" Defeat of the
home bourgeois government in an i'm
perialist war" remain today classical
examples of true revolutionary inter
nationalism. Leninism has rendered
the great service of dealing with the
question of war in its concrete histor-
ical conditions; the following three
types of wars were laid down; (a)
wars between imperialist states; (bl
national revolutionary wars against
imperialism including also colonial
countries (China); (c) capitalist coun-
ter-revolutionary wars against the
proletarian revolution and countries
building up Socialism. The Comintern
has now merely to put into concrete
form-with regards to wars of the last
two types-the general treatment of
the question of war, which Bolshevism
laid down most fully with regard to
wars between imperialist states.
27. Bolshevism first of all rejects:
(al frivolous treatment of the ques-
ton of war. In his draft of instruc-
tons to the Russian delegation to the
Hague conference, Lenin very empha-
tically warned against any frivolous
treatment of the methods of struggle
against war. He advised all Commun-
lists Parties to take into consideration
the actual conditions in which war
arises; the secrecy with which pre-
parations are made for it; its unex-
pected outbreak, the helplessness of
the ordinary organization of the
workers" even if it calls itself revolu-
tionary, in the face of an actual men
ace of war; the fact that "the over
whelming majority of the toilers will
decide the question (of national de-
fense) in favor of their own bour-
geoisie, owing to the powerful pres
sure exercised by the bourgeois state
apparatus. Ito Be Continued.)

HENRI DETERDINC RACES And TALKS HUMANITY"
AS STANDARD OIL TAKES SOVIET OIL HE LOST

LONDON, Aug. 30.-The recent
apparent conflict of opinions among
the leaders of Standard Oil groups as
to the morality of dealing in Russian
oil is causing wide spread interest in
European oil circles.
Socony and Socony Differ.
The curious thing is that the Stan
dard Oil of New York and the Vacu-
UNI Oil Company who are buying, or
selling on commission, very large
quantities of Russian oil, are the hold
ers of a large amount of Nobel Oil
Stock, which they purchased since the
Russian Revolution. They make no
scruples about doing business. while
Standard Oil of New Jersey, who had
no holdings in Czarist oil concerns
are, apparently siding with the Shell
interests who have alternately bought
or bargained for Russian oil or de-
nounced the Soviet "in the interests
of humanitarianism and business NOR
atty" 1t is probable that the Stan
dard Oil of New Jersey is seriously
embarrassed by the over production of
their subsidiaries. and need the East
ern markets Of their brother trusts
to relieve the situation.
The Standard Oil of New York,
which apparently finds market with
in its areas in the United States of
America for all, or nearly all the oil
its producing subsidiaries can deliver,
has created a chain of storage and
distribution plants throughout the
Far and Near East, and in East and
South Africa. Colombo and Port Said
once the important oil bunkering sta
tions monopolized by the Royal Dutch
Shell group--with their so per cent
Dutch and 40 per cent British con-
trol--are now the arenas for a chal-
lenge by Standard Oil of New York
The latter has now storage capacity
for 85,000,0OO barrels in these areas
and served by AZ oil tankers, a large
number of barges and river craft
operated by its subsidiaries. Russian

Noble Deterding Also Bid to U.S.SR.
Sir Henri Deterding, leader of the
Shell Group, now claims that Standard
Oil of New York is wrong to have
relations with the Soviet, who he ac-
cuses of using money derived from
oil sales for fostering Communism in
the Dutch East Indies. incidentally
it is reported that Sir Henri, eminent
moralist and prepayment of humani-
tarianism as he purports to be, made
an offer, it is rumored, in November
of last year for the monopoly of mar
keting Soviet oil in the worlds mar
ket.
The campaign against Russian oil
in Great Britain is dying down, as
the attitude Of the Government in
stimulating Russian trade. despite the
suspension of diplomatic relations,
plainly discourages the Combine and
the Rothermere Press. A recent eff

staple to prevent the Russian Oil
Products Ltd from opening a dis
trjbuting depot at THAT place was
overridden by the Home Secretary
himself.
The Vacuum Oil Company has is
sued a circular to its representatives
in Great Britain concluding with a
statement to the effect that the own
ership Of petroleum wells in Russia
has changed as a result of the revo-
luton which, it states, is entirely
domestic affair of the Russians them
selves. This comes, be it noted, from
company holding parcels of stocks
from appropriated companies.
Another angle is touched by the
London editor of the yorkshire
Post" He says, whatever may be
the outcome of this conflict, some au-
thorities hold the view that if Rus
sian oil is seriously boycotted, it may
mean that other sources of oil sup
plies will be seriously depleted, and
that the position will eventually be
reached where Russia dominates the
worlds oil markets. This is consid-
cred to be undesirable since it may
give undue power to the Soviet in
this respect"
