DETROIT, December 31-Announce-
ment by the Ford Motor Co of a plan
to employ 10000 additional men so its
factories can be placed on a basis of
six days for machines and five days
for men" is believed here to presage not
only the 20 per cent increase in produc-
ton which is promised Immediately
but another social welfare experiment
by Henry Ford.
While the plan is designed primarily
to remedy the economic defects of his
most notable innovation along that line
the five-day week. it is believed he
hopes with an increased production to
abolish permanently all night work.
Employment of the great additional
force planned will be completed by
March /, the announcement said, and
production of the model A Ford will b.
increased from 33,500 week to 40200
Only the factory here will be affected
Immediately, but it is understood as

IATIONAL-"The wooden Kimona." /"

AAC tfUVUCh hlIuVnds
Blood and thunder aplenty, gunplay
and flashing lightning, coffin, ghost
and a luntic the likes of which we
haven't seen since the old days of stock
melodrama were brought to the National
last night in the Wooden Kimona."
Staged by a better cast the Wooden
Kimona" has elements of a genuine
thriller. The deep laid plot in general
follows the formula of the wave of
mysteries since the success of 1.-THE Bal" "
Who was responsible for the three mys-
teriouS murders in the Red Owl Tavern,
who blew up the bridge and killed an
innocent man, who slew the detective
who apparently was close on the trail
of the murdererS, who stole his body,
who is Richard Halstead and last of all
who fired the shot on the stage five
minutes after the last curtain feel and
the audience was filing out are some of
the strange situations presented.
There are the usual dumb country de-
tective and sheriff taken bodily-lines,
quaking knees and all-from the bur-
lesque stage. The banging of doors, con-
slant pounding of the builder of the
wooden kimona" in an eerie cellar,
crashing of lightning and extinguishing
of lights carry the first act away to a
good start, but the obvious comedy
slows UP the action to such an extent
it does not get well under way again
until the third act.
A nervous woman, a clutching hand
and black shadow which fits across the
stage and disappears into thin air, the
dank smell of a cellar which pervades
the theater, all contribute to the eve
ning's entertainment.

BELASCO-'Lady Be Good"

An eXhilarating performance of "I ldy
Be Good" which brought desc wed
credit upon the Savoyans and Keen
enjoyment to a we'll filed house, Sened
New Year week at the : elasco
Theater last nigh.
In the hands CT the capable stock
company which has won popular fol-
lowing here, Lady Be Good proved a
decidedly happy choice for the holiday
season. With lifting music and comedy
that runs sometimes a bit fast and
fllrius, it should be one of seasons hits
for the Savoyans.
Lady Be Good was seen here
several seasons ago. The book is by
Guy Bolton and Fred Thompson,
lyrics by Ira Gershwin and music by
George Gershwin. It is the story of
an orphan boy and girl who came into
money and break into society. All of
which affords two acts of merriment.
Even if the music of the offering
were not so captivating, the well
directed efforts of the company would
have carried the comedy to the sue
cessful point. Thelma Parker, who
plays Susie Trevor, makes up in per-
sonality for what her voice lacks and
gave one of her most pleasing perform
dIICeS. Anu JdCA 1NOpeIlS SdI1S al
splendid form and Eddie Morris as
Bertie BaSSett came in for special
honors. Robert Capron had plenty of
opportunity in his role. With Miss
Parker he did dance act which was
the hit of the show. Renee Hamilton
as Daisy Parke, was also exceptionally
good.
There are few dull moments in
Lady Be Good" Each act has three
scenes and the specialties go over we'll.
Among the best received songs were,
"Oh, Lady Be Good Fascinating
Rhythm" and "Juanita." Encores were
plentiful.
With attractive backgrounds, the
chorus worked hard and looked we'll.
A special New Year day matinee is
scheduled.

OPENING ATTRACTIONS IN WASHINGTON
THEATERS

to the final verdict in the case of the
People VS.. Robert Strickland, accused
of murder and attempted robbery.
From legal standpoint, one or two
precedents may have been set in al
lowing portions of the testimony to be
reread to hung jury and witnesses
10 be recalled when no new evidence
had actually been introduced, but If so,
they were precedentS we'll set and they
add the final dramatic note to trial
frought with high-tenSion pleading of
would spoil the pleasure of those who
have not yet seen the play. 1t is hard
to say who has the most difficult role
or who displays the greatest skill in in
depreciation. Pauline Frederick gives
a f1aWleSs performance as the widow of
the murdered man. Bert Lytell is
adequate as the prisoner at the bar and
Lois Wilson is superb in her emotional
role as the wife of the accused. And
the work of the juvenile, Vondell Darr,
sets new standard for child acting.
Perhaps one reason for the powerful
appeal of the picture, is the complete
faithfulneSs with which the directors
have followed the text of the original
Elmer Rice's story of THE Trask Muir
der lease" from which it is adapted.
Several of the minor roles should be
mentioned. but lacking the names of the
artists, one must refer to them in char
ac'Rr. Especially effective is the work
OF the young lawyer, the district at
tJrney, the clerk of the court and a
Jertain stubborn juror whose dissent
ing vote hangs things up for So hours.
Added attractions include synchro-
nized Aesop's Fable, stage Struck"
which produces some startling effects as
the animals voice their thoughts, a Fox
news reel and Pathe Review.

STRAND-"Parisian FIappers."

While the Partisan f1appers" are very
much in evidence in this weeks bur-
lesque show, Partisan Flappers," at the
Strand, and Gladys Lockwood, their
regal leader, along with Stella Morrisey
herself not far behind, although in a
different type of shade, are quite up
to the minute, it is really the men who
furnish the funny complications SO
eagerly devoured by the average bur-
lesque fan.
Frank Anderson, the leading comedian,
has his own peculiar methods for ex-
citing the risibilities and he keeps the
audience in happy humor, inclined
toward the hilarious, throughout. In
this he is assisted effectively by Harry
Left and Dick Richards, with Jack Ryon
doing we'll along eccentric lines.
The show is well costumed and its
various ingredients guarantee an en-
joyable performance throughout. Praise
of the men does not mean diSparage-
ment of the girls in any sense. They
are attractive and handle their part
of the show as well as any of their
predecessors of the season.

of the green hat and yellow roadster"
vibrant personality, creature of
fascinating moods, charmingly reck-
less and amazingly heroic. She has
thrown aside much of her dreamy
eyed languor, has substituted smart
sport clothes for the filmy effects and
has emerged, If trif1e less beautiful,

And while John Gilbert does his most
distinguished acting in long time as
the scion of an old and stolid English
family, his work Is secondary, though
done with understanding and restraint
Dorothy Sebastian, as the wife of
the man torn between two loves, brings
to her role a sympathetic sweetness and
a flair" for real acting that has hith-
erto been lacking. The other members
Fairbanks, jr., in a difficult bit, suffers
from bad makeup, while John Mack
Brown Is real disappointment in a
part that has been tampered with by
the censors.
Yet. THE Woman of Affairs" is a
noteworthy effort, brilliantly Sophis-
ticated and done with such intelligence
and power by its two stars as to make
1t one of the most distinguished pic

LITTLE THEATER- Napoleon"
An entirely new pictl ization of the
!dol OF France is preSel ted in "Napo-
leon," this weeks featur attraction at
the Little Theater.
Departing from the h ckneyed GUS
tom OF depicting series of histori-
cal happenings, Director Abel Gance
6evotes the entire film to an interest
ing study of the master generals mind
and temperament. The wooing and
winning OF Josephine and snatches of
the Italian campaign are pictured
merely to enhance this study.
You Will see Danton and Marat and
Robesplerre sway the revolution -crazed
mobs with their oratory. each in turn
falling before the tide of terror and
being swept away in the swirl of that
mad river of ever-changing hates. You
Will see the boy Napoleon rise to un-
| scaled heights, with the splendid study
of his spirit and inner urge woven into
the story.
Albert Dieudonne impresses as the
Little Corporal with the eagle ewes
| and all-powerful will, molding a rab-
BILE crowd into an unbeatable army
| and winning battles where others had
failed. Aided by remarkable artistic
blending of scenes, he presents an
ever-moving characterization of the
| man Napoleon as the French imagine
| him. Vladimir Roudenko, a young
Russian lad, plays the boy Napoleon,
an outstanding piece of acting.
The other actors are stiff and their
performances stilted. A parade of ter
! rifying creatures of the reign of ter
| ror passes in review and sends shudders
| down the spine with their grimaccs
| and leers.
Supplementary attractions are a
Paramount newsreel; resurrected
Charlie Chaplin comedy, Behind the
| Scenes" and "Ice Palaces" which
takes you on beautiful trip through
| ice caves in Austria. Harry Cherkassky
entertains with violin solo.
