HOLLYWOOD, Calf, November 20
(N.A.N.A).-A few good prices are be-
ing paid for plays these days.
Strictly Dishonorable, which brought
$3.50, 900, am told, and was bought by
no less person than the youngest
mogul in the movie world, Carl
Laemmle. jr., has been the goal Of all
producers for some time past.
When it comes to paying large sums,
1aemmle, jr., is right there. He went
for the play Broadway" lock, stock and
barrel. There was a nasty little clause
about production date. The news leaked
out that Junior had bought broadway
and every lot in the place neatly skipped
about the story using the main features
Of 1t until 1t was riddled, so far as nov
city was concerned.
Nothing of that sort will happen to
Junior Laemmle again. With the rec
about the business of buying successes
unrufied. Jesse Lasky wanted the
Preston Sturges play for Maurice Che
Waller. Perhaps that's one reason why
tie bidding ran so high.
At any rate, failing to get the vehicle
which swung Tullio Carminati into
fame as a Broadway light. Lasky has
retained Preston Sturges to write the
next Chevalier vehicle, and LubitSch
will direct it. Lubitsch does better with
Chevalier than other directors.
Expensive as 1t may seem, the idea
Of getting a fine playwright for Cheva-
ner is a necessary one. He needs Lu-
bitsch's direction also. If the sensa-
tional success which he has enjoyed Is
to be ktpt alive, good stories are i'm
perative. Many a Chevalier fan found
himself yawning during THE Little
Cafe" The French comedian is de-
lightful, but not versatile enough to
enchant an audience during an evening
unless the vehicle presents some novel
turns or some fascinating angles.
Along the roadways leading to the
sea motorists rushing to dinner in Bev-
erly Hills passed great fields Of poin-

 At the request of the Broadway stage stars, it has been placed in their dressing rooms by 71 of the "A legiti- mate theaters, and by other leading theaters all over the country.
 No girl can be attractive unless she has the very loveliest skin" This is the conclusion of 45 leading Holly wood directors who pick the girls who will most surely win popularity on the screen.
 Small wonder, then, that Lux Toilet Soap has become the chosen soap of the worlds most famous stars!

FRUIT SHIPMENTS
IN USUAL VOLUME
Heavy Seasonal Freighting
of Melons Reported-Po-
tato Cargoes Small.

The six weeks drought became still
more severe in most sections east Of the
Rocky Mountains during the first week
of August, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, Bureau of Ag-
ricultural Economics, Market News
Service. New England, Northern New
York and the South Atlantic coast re-
gion below Virginia were the most IA
vorable crop sections of the East, but
heavy general rains are needed through
out the country. Short pasturage, water
scarcity, following and drying of green
crops mad whiting of fruit were features
of the worst dry spell in many years.
Shipments of fruits and vegetables
were maintaining the usual volume
mainly because of continued heavy
fruit. Marketing of potatoes and green
produce was limited owing to heat
drought, injury or low prices.
Potato shipments are not much more
than 500 carlots daily now. The great
midseason shipping sections south OF
New Jersey, Minnesota and Colorado are
about done and the Northern and West
ern States are not yet shipping actively
Prices have not yet responded we'll to
Cne moderate supplies ana limited crop
prospects. The general price range is
about half that of August, 1929. Pro-
ducerS in Eastern, MidweStern and
Western producing sections are getting
from 81 to SIPS per 100 pounds fol-
best varieties. Haulings to country
shipping points are rather light on &C
count of hot weather. Demand is slow
but improving in some districts. Rather
firm conditions prevail in Midwesterr
markets, with advances of 10c to Csc in
Chicago, but Eastern city markets show
little improvement. New Jersey cobblers
sell In large Eastern cities at SIPS t.
$3.50 per 100 pounds, which is close to
the price week ago. Long Island po-
tatoes in bulk bring SIPS to $1.40 in
New York City, showing slight de-
cline compared with prices earlier in
the month. Eastern Shore potatoes
show but few price changes.
Onion shipments are light, averaging
about so cars daily in early August
Massachusetts and New York supplied
fully half the usual daily carlot move
ment. Supplies are moderate in most
Eastern cities, but liberal in Boston
and demand is slow everywhere. There
is little further change in price. Mas
sachusetts yellow stock brings SIPS to
l.5O per 100 pounds in Eastern mar
ketS and about 81 at Connecticut VAL
ley shipping points. Demand is slow in
producing sections, market dull and
prices no more than steady.
