FOrbids Actors to Act.

ONE thing movie star expects to do
when he gets in front Of q camera,
1t is said, is to act. and. oddly enough,
that is the one thing that Director Raoul
Walsh expects him not to do. Walsh's
particular method Of shattering such an
idea is to shout Don't play Hamlet"
when an actor begins to take himself
too seriously.
According to Fox writing racqueteer,
older actors trained In the stage tradi-
ton are apt to make elaborate gestures
and indulge in whimsical facial contor-
tons described sometimes as "mugging. 3"
Younger players are said to want to
demonstrate some Of the vocal traits
picked up In dramatic schools. They
are apt to do this before Director Walsh
gets at taem-not after.
Walsh talks 1t all over with his casts
before he starts on a picture. He did
this recently before he started on what
he hopes will be his epic picture, 1.-THE
Big Trail" He explained to the actors
that he wanted them to look and be
like pioneers and that men and women
undergoing the hardships of the gold
rush days didn't besport themselves like
melancholy Danes. Economy of words
and gestures was what he wanted.
Walsh is rabid on the subject of
being yourself" He has rubbed this
into his actors ever since they have
been on location at jackson, Wyo
where most of the filming of THE Big
Trail is being done. This country
famed for its wide open spaces, and the
town itself, which serves as a kind of
Mecca for dude cowboys and girls, who
go there in the Fall to compete in the
roundup" is an ideal setting for such
a picture. In the background are the
snow-capped Teton Mountains, nearby
Is the Snake River and for miles around
are typical stretches Of uncultivated
prairie lands covered with tangled sage
brush and dust-nothing else. In the
midst Of this there is hardly room for

SCOUTS WAR THREAT
Ex-Envoy Says Japan-U. S.
Conflict Not Likely.

BIZ United Press
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass, Aug. 10.
The japanese war threat some
times held before the people of the
United States was attacked by Will
liam H. Castle Jr., former ambas-
sador to Japan, today.
Castle refuted the argument that
trade rivalry might cause war by
showing how the balance of trade
between the United States and
Japan is in the latter's favor, while
in China the two nations are not
trying to sell the same thing.
He also secuted the theory that a
desire to own the Philippine islands
might lead to conflict, asserting that
Japan does not seek political ex-
pansion.
