MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MoLLIE MERRICK,

loudly bewailed by critics-is the infe-
riority of additional dialogue in the
main. But this careful splicing Of
cinema needs and stare situations gives
a satisfying whole.
And now we understand why pro-
ducers say their product is swinging out
of the musical cycle into comedy OF all
types. Smart comedy of the Barry sort.
with q tremendous human punch behind
it, is more than an afternoons enter
tainment; it's a lesson. administered
through laughter: q lesson against
s.nugness and snobbery.
Maggie colors are ruling in the smart
costumes OF screen stars at the present
time. The clean, chic differentiation
between black and white and navy blue
and white makes for the majority OF
the early Autumn things.
We are rly-Autumning it, although
the sun has Summertime sting II you
stand still for more than moment.
Nothing more charming can be i'm
agined than the little beret type hats in
black velvet or very dark blue knit
materials with a band Of white against
the hair line: a sharp. clean stroke OF
white faille ribbon above the lineleSs,
clean-cut lines of HollywoodS beauties.
The white touch is especially lovely next
to tanned skin.
And let the mode howl as it may,
Hollywood went tan with the beach
season and stayed tan.

HOLLYWOOD, August Is MAMA }.
Since troubles never come Singly, II is
quite appropriate that Peverell Marley
would notify Lima Basquette that he
will apply for divorce in the near future.
Thus closing another Hollywood chap
ter in the checkered career of the for
mer Ziegfeld premiere danseuse. 1t is
the understanding of the couples friends
that there did not seem to be a posi-
bility of Lima Basquette being with her
baby and her husband at the same time.
For long while she thought she
could do with occasional visits from her
child. Then. finding that an impossi-
bility, she had a diplomatic separation
from her husband. But the two were
that nobody took the separation seri-
ously. Then came the attempte sui
eide and the surprise of the colony at
Marleys attitude. He came to the bed
side of the wife he had been seen in
such deep conversation with at various
times since their trouble, but remained
the briefest time.
And now he will start the proceed
ings which will leave Lima BaSquette
free to give her entire attention to her
child, If and when she gets her back.
We have at the present time in Holly
wood the singular situation Of a picture
being repeatedly attended by the pro-
fessionals of the colony. 1t is Grifhth's
production of Holiday" made from the
Barry play. And directors, actors and
writers alike are unstinting in their
praise I confess to Sneaking back a
third time with sort of hangdog look
in my eve One hates TO be caught in
such enthusiastic mood. 1t has high
school fair that we always hope We will
live down.
Holiday more nearly approXimates
the entertainment of the legitimate at
its best than any picture made in the
colony since "Disraeli'' few describe
it as a photographed stage play" Call
it what you will, it's great.
In analyzing the elements that 20 to
make up for its greatness one discovers
that Eugene Walter, a dramatist of IN
questionable merit, wrote the additional
dialogue necessary to transforming the
play into the picture.

SUGAR AND INDEPENDENCE

The American people about
ready to favor Philippine Independence.
good number OF American Congre ssnen have
identified themselves as in favor OF givi-
NJ the Filipinos self-rule. And if ever
Corgree IS should pass the bill that Will
decide once and for all the political Sta
tue Of the Philippines, it would be done
go with motives entirely different from
those upon whic the Filipinos base their
claim.
Filipino feeders have time end again
pleaded for PHILIPPINES Independence on
the grounds required by the Jones Bill
which was passed by Congress in August
1915, name ly, the establi ehaent OF q sta
Bile government IN the Philippine and
demonotrati On on the part o. the Filipino
peorle Of The ability to govern themselves.
That there is such g stable government in
the Philippines and that the Filipinos are
now ready TO govern themselves have been
repeetedly asserted by Filipino leaders
and supported by facts, and recOgni zed by
some Ameri can state smen including the late
President Woodrow wilson VINO recommended
TO the Ans ri can Congress in 1921 the recOr-
milton OF Philippine Independence. There
ia now no doubt but that the FilipinOs have
already satis SIZED the requirements stipu--
lated in the Jones Bill, and that it re-
mains for the United States to redeem her
prom Sc in that covenant.
The American people, however, in final
ly agreeing to the granting Of Philippine
Independence, seem to concede not on the
ground Of the ability OF the Filipinos to
run their own cove nment, but on the fact
that by alternating American rule in the
Philippines the American government can
thereby impose duty Philippine products
coming into this country. Of late there
have been protests from sugar interests in
this country to the present free trade re-
lations between the United States and the
Philippines. The American government can
not tax Imported Philippine products 80
long as the Philippines do not impose duty
upon those that enter the Philippines from
this country. Reali zing this situation,
and knowing that only by alternating Ameri-
can rule cen the US. government stop the
free rAlationsIip. -Anerican public op-

HARD TIMES CONTROL
Business Men and Economists Will
Combine Efforts Against
! Depression, He Says.

DR.. Frank 10. Surface, assistant
director of the Rlreau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce, predicted last
night that possible future business de-
pressions could h made susceptible to
control by "the' combined efforts OF
thousands of business men and
economists"
In q radio address over the Columbia
Broadcasting System, DR.. Surface said
that the chance of such control
system developing depended upon "pro-
per support and cooperation from the
business public"
aWhen business has passed into o
period Of depression there seems to be
little that can be done by way OF def
mite control" he said. Prevention,
not cure, is the modern trend in medi-
cine and so 1t must be with these
economic disorders"
Overproduction, principally OF raw
materials, was described by DR.. Surface
as prime cause of difficulty. Improved
report Ting Of facts and better adjustment
of production to demand were suggested
O. methods of attacking the problem.
Present conditions, he said, repre-
scented "the greatest challenge to con-
structiye business thinking the world

with coal company officials, instead OF
calling strike.
The miners have appointed COM
mittee to confer with Gov. EmmerSons

committee will report that many miners
are out of work and some of their
families starving. because mechanical
devices, especially loading machines,
make it impossible for many men to
find work. The same committee will
go to Washington to confer with Presi-

ployment. and there they will report
that present freight rates discriminate

MORROW IGNORES
FIERY OPPONENT

Differ WideIy-Hot Con-
tests for House..

By the Associated Press.
NEWARK, N. j., october 27.-The
contest for United States Senator in
New Jersey has robbed this years cam
paign of the usual apathy OF an oh-year.
Dwight w. Morrow becams a candi-
date Just a few months ago and the
Nation took notice. He was a fresn
figure in the game of politics, which
now has him pitted against Alexander
Simpson and Miss Thelma Parkinson,
Democrats, and against the nominees
of the Prohibition, Communist and
Socialist parties.
Simpson is candidate for the full
senatorial term Of six years. Miss
Parkinson went from Smith College into
politics
For the most part, New Jersey has
turned its eyes and ears toward two
men, heard both of them renounce pro-
hibition, one of them laud President
Hoover, the other bitterly assail him.
Answers No Questions.
Morrow answers no charges. He does
not mention his adversaries. Neither
does he criticize the issues they raise.
He makes no specific requests for votes
for himself; he asks only that the peo-
pie exercise their franchise.
Simpson, spectacular Of speech, has
raised a warning against support OF
indorsers of President Hoover and the
national administration, lest business
depression continue.
Simpson is a man of slogans and all
literations Morrow is Dwight Worship
Morrow" to Simpson. A vote for the
Republican, he warns, is Specification of
approval of Morrow, Morgan and

Morrow was formerly a partner Of

Of the people will constitute the major
contribution to the return Of prosperity.
