Headquarters for vir-
ginia Section.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLARENDON, Va, November s.
Steps looking to the establishment of
q building to house the civic activities
of Clarendon and vicinity were taken
last night by the Clarendon Citizens
Corporation, holding company for the
citizens association. meeting at the
home OF A. G. Putnam, president Of
the former organization
A committee consisting of A. j. Por-
ter, chairman; L. G: McNemar and j.
Thomas Manning was appointed to
investigate the adviSability anC de-
STABILITY Of erecting an auditorium and
community center, with authority to
confer with other organizations Of Clar-
endon proper and nearby commune
ties for the purpose of determining
sentiment for such a project and the
anount of cooperation that may be
expected" -
Joint Action Favored.
This action was taken after spon-
sors of the movement called atten-
ton TO the fact that several organiza-
tons are planning separate homes, and
pointed to the advantages, from an eco
nomical standpoint and to the COM
munity, of all joining in establishment
of building of size to care for all of
these activities.
The corporation, 1t was stated, has
slfficient funds in hand to provide a
meeting place for the citizens associa-
ton, which has been without per-
manent home since the sale of the old
community building, but this would be
inadvisable in view of the growth of
the town and the need for a larger
auditorium.
sponsors of the project have in mind
an auditorium that will seat at least a
thousand persons, one that will be
sufaciently large to care for big con-
ventionS or community celebrations. 1t
was also suggested that among other
prerequisites of a community center
the building should include a GYM
nasium for the youths Of the COM
munity.
Loan to Firemen Voted.
The meeting acted favorably on =
request of the Clarendon Volunteer
Fire Department for a loan OF 81 900,
the loan to be secured by flrst trust
mortgage on the new FIRE department
headquarters being erected at Lawton
and Taylor avenues. The money will
be used TO lay q concrete floor and to
put other finishing touches on the new
structure The action of the corpor-
alton will have to be ratified by the
citizens association and this is ex-
pected to be done at its next regular
meeting. Tuesday night, November IL,

tiers. The apparatus of the department
will be moved TO the new building as

The Tmrc0man Drama
HOuNshes IN the USSR

THE first play in the Turco Ian
L guage was acted in those days
when the Red Army, driving the
white troops out of Kizil-Arvat,
were still fighting. 1t was hurriedly
written by Atajev, Turco worker,
and was called "The Taking Of
KILL Arvat by the Red Troops" 1t
would be too much to describe this
military sketch as drama.
The true significance Of this YER
itably revolutionary event in the
history of Turco drama may be bet
ter conceived when it is realized
that until quite recent years Turk
menistan had neither theatre nor
ballet. The only form of art con-
tanning within itself the seeds of
the drama was the practice of the
defamation of lyrical works by
singers (Bakhshami). In distinction
from the Caucasion Ashugi the
Bakhshi sometimes performed in
groups, creating something like a
chorus. The procedure itself is
worthy of attention. The principal
Bakhsha called to one of his COM
rades in a song. and the next singer
in his turn addressed another, 50
that the audience witnessed some

Constant Nymph at
Little Carnegie

ssTHE Constant Nymph," Basil
L Deans film adaptation of Mar
garet Kennedy's best seller, had its
American premiere last night at the
Little Carnegie Playhouse. The
regular performances of the picture
will commence today.
Mabel Poulton, English actress,
plays the role of Tessa and Ivor
Novello is seen as Lewis Dodd. The
film, which was made in London and
in the Tyrol mountains, has had
a great success throughout Europe.
The London Film Weekly selected
this picture as the most outstand-
ing British picture of 1928. Super
vision of this picture was Basil
Deans first association with the
motion picture industry. Adrian
Brunei directed the film for Gains
borough Productions.
Many American companies had
planned to make this picture but
gave up the hope after Will Hays
banned the story. The picture could
have been produced here under an
other title, but Miss Kennedy in
sisted on the use of the original
title. "The Green Hat" which was
barred at the same time, later ap-
peared on the screen with another
title.

THE Film Arts Guild has planned
series of film-repertory, the
first Of which will start today at
the Film Guild Cinema, and be de-
voted to review of Emil Jannings'
work.
With the recent return of this
screen artist to Germany after q
Hollywood sojcurn of two years, the
question has arisen in many quar-
tcrs as to whether his efforts here
outrank his achievements in Europe;
whether his consummate character
ization as the old doorman in "The
Last Laugh" is superior to his three
fold role in 'The Way of All Flesh;
whether his creation of the mad
car in 1.-THE Patriot" is finer than
his portrayal of Boss Huller in eva
riety."
Some claim that his style was
cramped on the West Coast, giving
rise to the age-old discussion as to
whether an artist can do worl: which
is vitality creative in an atmosphere
alien to his psychology. The three
weeks of Emil Jannings' Repertory
will probably help number of peo-

thing like a primitive operate per-
Torrance. The repertoire of the
Bakshi included many songs by
popular poets, but at national holt
days or weddings they frequently
improvise. There are famous Bak-
shi in Turkmenistan.
Bahia Kambara is considered the
father of these national singers, and
his best pupils Siran and Halvina Ga
woman Baksha). Among the mod
ems are the famous musician and
comic, Ismael Bairan and Klitch,
and Sarkha Karieva of Kizil-Arvat.
Such were the sources of the Turk
ish drama. Turkmenistan had no
theatre in the accepted sense of the
word and it is therefore no wonder
that the first experiment-the per-
formance of the play already men
tioned-was received but coldly
Two years were required to bring
the seed to fruiticn.
In 1921 the first dramatic circles
came into being. For the most part
they acted translations of a revolu-
tionary nature, only one original
performance being given-"Ghul
Jamal."
The work of the dramatic circles
did much to train an original type
of local actor and to prepare the
ground for the first dramatic studio
under the auspices of the Peoples
Comlnissariat for Education in 1926.
The first performance of this studio
the five-act Arab legend "Tagir
Hugre"-was a great success among
the peasantry who flocked in from
the aouls. In 1927, thirteen plays
were performed. The peasants from
the surrounding aouls poured in,
whole families at a time.
Despite unfavorable material cir
cumstances, and lack of suitable
premises-the theatre led a nomad
existence with no fixed abode-the
studio must be said to have fully
justified its existence, and there is
every reason to regard it as the
foundation stone of the future
Turkmenistan theatre.

the country, giving an estimate OF
the Importance of the militant etrug-
giles of the textile workers, cafeteria,
shoe, needle trades, iron and bronze
workers, and others; endorsed and
pledged support to the coming strug-
gle of the fur workers. The dele
gates realized that it is not enough
to fight for increased wages, shorter
hours, etc., but that one of the main
struggles facing the American work
ers is the struggle against the war
preparations Of the imperialists of
this country, as well as the imperial
lists of other capitalist countries, for
an attack against the Soviet Union
and for hegemony of the world
market.
The delegates realized that the
socialist pacifist elements and A.
F. of L. bureaucrats who are serv-
ing the bosses will be at the service
of the imperialists of all countries.
The conference adopted a resolution
pledging itself to carry on an
energetic militant struggle against
the war preparations of the U. S.
government and A. F. of L. official
dom.
This conference worked out con-
structive program and plan of or
ganization which raises new hopes
for the organized as well as the un-
organized workers for future strug-
giles for the organization of the un-
organized, and exploited Negroes,
women, young and adult workers, for
the building of militant class strug-
gle, industrial unions and intensi-
flying the struggle in the reactionary
unions, for the 5-day, 40 hour week,
for unemployment, sick and old age
insurance, paid by the employers
and administered by the workers or
CARNATIONS.
For international working class
unity, for the recognition of the U.
S. S. R. and against the war danger.
The conference also adopted resolu-
tons to greet the revolutionary
workers of China, India, Italy, Ger
many and Latin-America, and for
sending childrens' delegation to the
U. S. S. R., to greet the Southern
textile strikers, food, shoe and needle
workers in the struggle against
police brutality, and injunctions
against the Imprisonment Of the act
