MOVIES. AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MoLLnE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, December 10
&N.A.N.A.).- Local bandittt are giving
the villagers some grave moments. The
new stunt is the party hold-up, with
host and guests coming In for the sur
ptse" angle staged by the gangster.
When Priscilla Dean and a party of
friends drove away from home where
they had been guests Monday evening
the host was surprised by an impera-
tive ring at the doorbell. Thinking
some OF his party had forgotten some
thing, he swung the portcullis wide,
only to find q couple of lads with guns
parked on his doorstep.
Following age-old book agent meth
DDS, the head gangster thrust his foot
In the door. They frisked the house
as well as the host and departed airily
on foot.
Another neat trick Of the week is the
hold-up mans adoption of the red light,
which Is supposed to be sacred to police
cars. Approached by an automobile
carrying such light, the citizen meekly
draws up to the curb. Breathes there
the man with soul so dead that he is
not conscious Of that guilty feeling at
the sound Of q siren or the sight of q
police car? You just know you've vio-
lated one OF the rules, and, conscience
.
You get it-from bandits.
Movie stars are continually harassed
by the fear that their children iii be
kidnapped and held for ransom. Harry
Carey's youngsters were once. Conrad
Nagers children always have a body
guard. Take that out of the salary and
movie stars aren't such profteers as
they sometimes seem to be.
Studio retrenchments are including
some minor economies which fall heav-
1y on the heads Of younger players. In
one large organization which once gave
its promising contract players instruc-
tions In voice development and training
In singing the burden of these lessons
is now falling on the player.
One lovely young thing who Is being
groomed for stardom, although she has
been but short time In the industry
and Is under one of those contracts
which give you marvellous opportunity
and q very slim salary, has been forced
Evening star., 1930-12-10

under the new regime to pay for her
lessons.
The studio insists that she take a
half hour day at SIS q lesson. That's
$50 a week and within $40 Of half of
her entire weekly income. OF course,
she takes French and dancing lessons
also. That leaves her less than half
OF her entire income for her living
expenses.
Well, when her big moment comes I
hope she gets it back with compound
interest.
When Leo Garlic was enormously
reported as starving some time back in
an Eastern city he was right in Holly
wood playing one of his old hits in q
local theater. He's making incursions
into movie fields, and hear he's asking
such neat little sums as $4,000 the
picture. A good round number-easy
for magnates to remember.
And there's q story going the rounds
that group OF our movie magnates is
going to take over Aqua Caliente, across
the Mexican border, for q million.
They've been stockholders, but they do
not like the returns on their money to
date.
Al Jolscn, Eddie Cantor, Joseph
Schenck, Winfield Sheehan and Raoul
Walsh are said to be included in the
deal. There's horse racing at Caliente,
and Walsh is a horse race expert. Al
Jolson and Cantor will introduce all
sorts OF stunts, one hears, to make the
locality focal point for big tourists
instead Of the small fish who drift in
great numbers into its casino.
At the present time the food is fair
and inexpensive and rooms may be had
at O nominal fee. The movie group
deals in large sums, 50 rates will prob
ably move along accordingly. They are
bringing in a new gamboiier to run the
play rooms also, it Is said.
Wen, I've lost my $40 there for the
season. Let some other fellow try It.

New Books at
Public Library

The following reviews of books re-
Gently received at the Bismarck Pub
lie library have been prepared by
Miss Harriet Rust of the library staff.
On Forsyte 'Change-John Galsworthy
If you have eve met the Forsytes,
England's most famous literary fam
lily, you will discover in the farcical,
grave and satirical episodes which
make up "On Forsyte Change" a
book OF the best short stories you
have encountered in many years. But
If you know Soames, and Irene, and
James. and Jolyon, and Fleur and
June and the aunts, Anne. juicy and
Hester. and the rest of the Forsyte
clan, then you will find here those
provocative episodes about which you
always wondered when you were
walking through London and the
country with them in the "Forsyte
Saga" and the Modern Comedy"
There is the story of June's first
lame duck. Aunt Juley's courtship.
Timothy's narrow squeak, and, in
Dog of Timothy's" a companion
piece to that moving story of the
dogs death in the Saga. It is i'm
possible to stop over each vignette.
but If you know the Forsytes you
will welcome the pleasure of renew
ing their acquaintances. and if you
don't, then you will go back to the
Saga and the Comedy. and meet
them.
Twenty-four H0urs-Louis Br0mfield
Louis Bromfield departs from his
usual pattern, and successfully &C.
complishes the creation of a story
with a new technique. Five widely
different friends of Hector Champion,
70~-year-old scion of an old family.
collector Of beautiful things, meet in
his expensive New York apartment
for dinner. The action takes place in
the "a hours following their meeting
there, and within the space of that
time, something crucial and vital has
happened in the life of each dinner
guest. The pattern of the. novel Is
definitely marked, although it never
intrudes en- the smooth continuity Of
the story. Gathering them together
for dinner, Bromfield allows their va
rious moods, weaknesses, jealousies
and envies to play upon each other.
Separating them, he follows each of
them to the points of crisis, where he
ties or cuts the threads that bind
them. Slightly reminiscent of his
previous novels in setting and char
acter types, it is, nevertheless. a pro-
erosion in the artistry of one Of
Americas better known novelists.

CHARGES BRITISH
ARE EXPLOITING
PEOPLE OF india
Hindu Delegate Makes ACCUSE
ton at Round able Con-
ference in London

London. Nov. ~l9.-P)-Sweeping
charges Of exploitation of India, at
Indians expense, for British profit,
were leveled against the British gov
eminent today by DR.. B. S. Moonjee,
leader of the Hindu M%ahasabha, o.
protection society, in an address be-
fore the round table conference on
midas future constitutional status.
DR.. Monjee declared the British,
during a hundred years of admins
tration in India. have destroyed In
clan shipping and industry. the In
dian cotton industry. and have forced
British goods on India without the
payment of any duty.
Taking the address of Lord Peel,
former conservative secretary Of state
for India. yesterday as the text for
his speech, DR.. Monjee contested the
Earls statement that the British held
no ~monopolies in India.
The Hindu leader compared
Britain's devotion to India as that Of
a farmer to his COW: THE farmer
gives devoted attention to his COW so
that every morning he may have an
ample supply Of milk for his tea"
Britain, he said, was like the land
lord who looks after his land so ample
rent could be obtained.
Moonjee said the British people
think they al suppress the NATIONAL
list movement, that they can demoral-
ize the Indian people by a display Of
force.
II speak frankly and sincerely" he
said. THE time will never come
again when any show Of physical
force Is going to COW the Indian peo-
pie"
He then quoted Miss Madeleine
Slade. daughter of a British admiral
and known as "Mirabai" IN India, as
saying that Indians had been beaten
with sticks on the head, chest and
stomach, stripped naked before being
beaten and in some cases beaten aft
err they were unconscious.
Muhammed Ali, famous Moslem
leader and until a few years ago Ma
hatma Gandhi's closest ally, today
announced to the conference that he
was committed to complete independ-
ence for India.
