SIGNS OF REVIVAL
~
|. IN TRADE ARE SEEN
Cleveland Reviewer Finds
Business Still Slow, but
Looks for Change.
Special Dispatch to The star.

CLEVELAND, Ohio May 27.-In the
face of developments which indicate q
generally slow state of business activity,
definite signs of approaching recovery
are seen in the increasing level of retail
trade, says the Union Trust Co., Cleve-
land.
Pointing to the reports of larger chain
store and department store sales. the
bank says this means that more people
who are unemployed are getting back on
the pay roll. More dollars are finding
their way to the store counters, and
more stocks are being used up.
This resumption of public demand"
says the bank in its magazine, Trade
Winds, will inevitably sooner or later
be reflected in increased manufacturing
schedules and freight movements. Pub
lie purchasing power is the ultimate
yardstick of business volume, and cur.
rent figures would seem to point to o
steady return toward better business as
the season advances.
Major Industries.
Looking at major industries, little
encouragement is to be found. Opera
tions in iron and steel have shown q
moderately declining tendency. Steel
prices continue weak and quotations on
some important products are at the
lowest ebb since 1915. The three
greatest consumers of steel are railroads,
automobiles and building, and in all
these lines demand for steel is low.
In the automobile industry 1t is en-
couraging to note that actual automo-
bile sales at retail have been consider.
ably larger in proportion to production
than has been the case in recent years.
From large number of industries
come reports indicating slightly high
er rate of activity than was the case
earlier in the year, but substantially
lower level than was enjoyed in 1929.
There seems to be general condolences
That improvement will continue, but
estimates of the date of returning to
business are now being postponed to the
third or even the fourth quarter Of the
year.
"One reason for this change In view
Is that number of new factors have
entered the business situation which
were not prominently in evidence dur
ing the Winter. These have tended to
unsettle the state of industry and
trade and have made it more dificult
for the equilibrium of business to be
| once more re-established. Among these
factors are commodity price weakness,
the remarkable decline in money rates
and the tariff situation.
Low Interest Rates.
While low interest rates can be in.
terpreted as a favorable factor In the
long run, the weakness at the moment
points to worldwide falling off Ia
business activity, and it cannot be exc
pected to correct itself within a few
weeks or a few months.
The tariff problem is aggravated By
the threats of retaliation by other ma
tons against import duties embodied in
the latest American tariff bill. Numer-
Gus countries are planning action which
may cause American business to suffer-"

Richard Dix is one of those gods of
the silent regime who have found talkies

One hundred and twenty-five thou
sand dollars, paid for the story which
he will next make, shows that this he
man of the old days is still in favor
with the public and with the genties
who cater to the public taste.
The story is "Cimarron," Edna Fer

Territory. Yancey Cravat, the hero of
the book, is an intriguing character for
movie purposes. He is colorful, eXag-
gerated sufficiently to make any actor
man long to portray him, and full of
sympathetic appeal for the audience.
A general cleanup on the part of
authorities seems to remove the menace
of fake mediums, clairvoyants, sensitives
and such folderol from the village pic
ture.
Motion picture people do not bother
much with the spirits. They like to
have their fortunes told. They are a
bit superstitious and given heavily to
such fads as numerology-if. indeed, it
comes under such head. They like to
know their lucky days, are devotees of
the horoscope, but have little time for
long evenings with the table-tappers,
ghost-rapping and other entertainments

For years Won Stroheim would not
direct picture unless he had hunch-
back on the set for good luck. Other
stars have always had dwarfs in their

picture on a Friday is a favorite trick
of directors.
But the exigencies of a busy village
kill all these established superstitions
one by one.

HOLLYWOOD, May l (N.A.N.A).-
Hollywood, the gilded, makes return
to simplicity in one of the biggest we'd
dings of its season.
Organdy frocks, the habiliments Of
village bellies these many, many years,
were worn by the wedding party Of
Irene Mayer at her marriage to David
O. Selznick Tuesday evening.
Our motion pictures are made with
no regard to money. The frocks OF
bridal parties cost fortunes for a single
fling before the cameras.
Society scenes filmed by great direc-
tors are Cutlery with sequins, heavy
with cloth of gold or silver, or lit with
the Suave sheen of satin. Ermine and
chinchilla and sable swathe the slim
forms of leading ladies when they are
portraying the gayeties ofithe smart set.
But Tuesday night Janet Gaynor,
Marjorie Daw Selznick. Mitzi Cummings
and Margery Straus marched up the
aisle OF Spring flowers at the Santa
Monica home of the film magnate clad
in yellow organdy and carrying great
armfuls of yellow Spanish iris.
The most simple of materials plus
charming California garden flowers.
Edltn mayer GOetz, maid or hOnor,
wore lettuce-green organdy frock
and carried an armful of yellow roses.
Frocks such as these and such SIM
plicity as this were a characteristic of
David Wark Griffith in his early movie
days. He capitalized the charm of SIM
pie adornment. But at that time no
producers daughter would be found in
anything so quietly charming as an
organdy frock.
The bride departed from the organdy
precedent. She wore white satin in the
conventional empire fashion, topped it

Chickens Without Wings.

A great deal of interest has been
manifested in a breed of wingless and
clawless chickens which is being devel-
oped by doctor of Omaha, Nebr. This
experimenter started several years ago
with hen which was regarded as a
freak because of the diminutive size of
her wings and the almost total absence
of claws. From this bird the doctor
has raised several generations, with the
result that the wings and claws have
almost disappeared. The advantages Of
this is that the birds do not fly over
the fence and they do not dig UP the
garden In their search for food and at
the same time they show a tendency to
become better egg producers.
