HOLLYWOOD. May 10 (N.A.NA).-
CHANGING into village restaurant late
Saturday night, We met Victor Nc
Laglen and heard some interesting
things about that gentle, who has sur
vived both silents and talkies and still
is going strong.
McLaglen is the only person to be
starred by his corporation for some
time now. That flair for starring people
hit Winfield Sheehan less hard than
other members of the producing gentry.
But the man whose smile and herman
personality won so many adherents re-
ceives this billing, and has for some
time.
Speaking of cinema lights, Janet
Gaynor Is glimpsed about town now
and again; out at Mapibu, where she
loafs on the sands and accumulates q
coat of tan; down at Palm Springs,
where she looks over the land she re-
Gently bought with view OF building
house.
Anywhere and everywhere but on the
lot. Yet one hears there are new stories
In preparation for her. Janet Gaynor
took stand about some stories in the
past. Taking stand isn't much OF q
stunt in Hollywood. Bad boys and girls
who have things to say about the stories
they are cast in and who object to GER
tain players In their casts often ind
themselves out and injured.
And when one door closes in this
industry, now and then all doors close.
Producers play a close-in game. Actors
and writer's are always the opponents.
Let any one violate the producers rules
and they are In bad luck with every
one.

successfully, she Is one of the first play
ers in Hollywood to get away with It,
and certainly the first member of the
Fox corporation.
Charles Farrell meanwhile Is being
groomed to play the role of Liliom In
the talking production of Mlnar's play
1t isn't exactly Farrell role. Joseph
Schildkraut played it in New York, and
stars so far as acting technique Is con-
cerned.
Paul Mum has been put into the cast
Mum, with trained voice of great
beauty, isn't going to be a help to
Charlie, Farrell. Well. that's the way
our talkieS are made, and it's case OF
take it or leave 1t as far as the players
are concerned.
And now, If you are In search Of q
laugh, Hollywood provides 1t with the
news that several plays Of Luigi Piran.
dello have been bought for movie use.
That's good in itself, but back 1t ur
with the news that one of our most
pretentious movie rnoguls is after the
author himself to come and write from
the studio, where he will be In touch
with the supervising staff and where
he will have an opportunity to get thu
close contact with the new art which
he would need to successfully assimilate
the needs of novelties.
The gentle who writes all about char.
acters In search Of an author really
should come to the Gold Coast. He
could rub elbows with authors In search
Of fortune. There's Louis Bromfield
for instance, once our best young Amer
lean novelist, getting atmosphere galore
and writing talkies at top speed.

SPREADS g CASES
Health Department Unable to
Do Anything in Minnesota
Infection Due to Woman

The state health department finds
itself unable to do anything in the re-
cent spread Of 50 cases Of smallpox in
Minnesota by a woman from New
Rockford. DR.. ]. d. Jungman, head of
the preventable diseases bureau, e
ports, on his return from an official
visit to New Rockford.
The case was that of a woman who
went from New Rockford to visit In
several Minnesota communities. She
was suffering from some skin erup-
ton, which she stated vas due to
stomach flu, but which in reality is
said to have been smallpox. Being q
member Of q healing cult, she took no
stops to have her ailment diagnosed
and treated medically.
Shortly after her visit - cases of
smallpox broke out In nine Minnesota
families with whom she had contact.
Since then 20 other cases have been
reported.
On his visit to New Rockford DR..
Jungman tried to e the woman. but
she was nine miles out on a farm,
shut off by impossible roads. The
doctor conferred with the states at
torney, but there vas nothing to do,
as the infection had run its course.
Had there been q law for compulsory
vaccination. the health department
would have had acted when the ase

Of the disease to the neighbor-
ing state.
DR.. Jungman reports the smallpox
epidemic, which has existed mainly in
the eastern sections Of the state, is
diminishing.

SEEK TAX PAYMENT
ON MINNESOTA SOIL
County to Make Test Case Out
Of Demand State Pay ToIl.
on Foreclosed Lands

st. Paul, Feb. 28.-P-Action to
force the Minnesota rural credit bu-
to pay taxes on lands which it
owns through foreclosure has been
started by Pope county, w. K. Mon
tague. assistant state attorney gener-
al, announced today.
The question will be tested for the
first time in the Pope county district
court. Pope county has placed On its
delinquent tax lists about Is farms
owned by the rural credit bureau.
This the same effect as the filing Of
q complaint against the lands. The
state has until March IL to answer
the complaint and Mr.. Montague Is
drawing up a reply to the effect that
the county has no right to tax state
property.
Several other counties arc expected
to take the same steps as Pope coun-
ty. according to Montague.
Several opinions have been issued
by the attorney generals office. ruling
that the ~foreclosed farms held by the
rural credit bureau are exempt from
taxation because the constitution ex-
cxempts public property used exclu-
sively for a public purpose. It was
held that loaning Of money in aid Of
agriculture Is a public purpose.

difference between second and third
place in the two groups Of the Ma

Except for Les Canadiens of Mon

didn't do much about 1t. The Cana
diens gained their goal by handing
