THE FOOL SUIT
IN HIGH court
sdlock Accused Of Plagiarism
Over Famous Play

Washington, Aug. II UP)-"The
based on the theme: What would
happen to a man today if he at
tempted to follow literally the doc
trines of Jesus Christ in his daily
life"" has come before the L. S.
supreme court in a plagiarism suit,
Abraham Waxman, Of New York,
who claims he wrote the same play,
with the same characters, action.
and idea. in 1911, when he was only
IS, has asked the court for a review
of lower court decisions dismissing
his suit against Claiming Pollock,
author of THE Fool and Edgar
and Arch Selwyn.
Waxman's play Soldiers of the
Common Good" was copyrighted in
1911, but never produced. Pollock
wrote 1.-The Fool' in 1921. shortly
before it was produced, but he has
produced much evidence to show
that he first conceived the idea in
1900, when he was a dramatic critic
here.
Waxman's petition. which will be
placed before the court when it
meets in October, was followed by
Pollock's reply, asserting that he
had no access to WaXman's work,
and that he Independently conceiv-
ed the story of young clergyman
who loses his job, the woman he
loves, and other material advan.
tages by trying to follow literally
the words of Christ. Waxman's
play deals with a labor reform poll
teal campaign with a somewhat
similar plot.

PARIS Will CARRY

Alarmed as America Cuts in
on Business

Fairs, Aug. II (tP)-These must
be a new method establishing in the
creation of French styles for the
United States and South America.
That is the opinion of Mr.. Rene
Herbst, president of the Society OF
Modern Decorators, who is spread
in propaganda for the creation of
special establishments throughout
the world for the presentation of
French models.
He is not alone in his belief, and
the French style-fiXers are ready
TO contribute a fund of several mil
hon fracs to protect their interests
abroad. They have been consider
ably alarmed. they admit. during the
last few years by the tendency of
American dressmakers. milliners and
interior decorators to take the
French motifs and adapt them to
the particular needs Of their own
country.
During the winter. several groups
Of French business men are to visit
the principal cities of both the
Americas. They are to study Ameri-
can methods and American needs.
Whether they will be able TO meet
both without running their own
artistic pride, according to one
prominent French writer, is the
question that is worrying them most.
But we are losing several million
francs of commerce across the At
lantic every year simply because We
do not give exactly what the clients
want is the argument behind the
new movement. I'VE are too proud
of our own ideas. and unless we
grant some leeway to the creative
genius of other nations, Frances

Movies breed inferiority in the

Mrs. Gladys H. Grove. an authority

UNIQUE EXHIBIT
IN VERMONT HOME
Shad0Wland Tea Room Proves
Delightful Place

| Hidden lnCOnSpiCuouSly amid a
thick patch of foliage, shrubbery and
wooded territory is a longely bunga-
low, one of the many which may ue
seen in the picturesque Green Noun
tains of Vermont. Despite a lack
of outward impressive appearances,
inside the bungalow is a collection
of some of the most interesting ma
terial Imaginable.
The place is known as Shadowland
Tea room, but it is something en-
tirely different from what the ordi-
nary person would imagine a tea
room to be and if one were to drop
| in on the place without expecting
| to be thrilled he would be held spell
bound by the sights seen on the low
er floor of the house.
A new world was open to a group
of vacationists at Lake Bomoseen,
Vermont. last week when they de-
cided to visit the place. 1t is an
eight mile drive from the center of
the lake. People who had heard of
the place previously would think
they were stopping in front of the
wrong place, but they would be told
the outside was as uninte1esting as
the interior is interesting.

For the first time the group real

lccted in four rooms of an out-of-
the-way bungalow in Vermont.
The man of the house was not
present, unfortunately, otherwise
the stay at the house would be de-
layed for over three hours while he
describes the animals. For novice
to describe would be asking the I'M
possible. One would have to be
there 20 see it to really appreciate
it.
Now, from where has all this col
lection come? Who has collected it?
What is it doing in such an incon-
spicuous place?
These questions are answered by
the kindly woman who is in charge.
The collections are the result of
years Of travel and adventure by
members of her family. They have
been handed down through several
generations and many of the ami
mails heads and skins are very old.
