Big Theater Closes

Announcement is made that
the Mastbaum Theater in Pi1ila-
delphia will close on November S.
This is the city's largest motion
picture palace with 4,800 seats to
be filled. The strike of the nnu-
sicians forced the theater to
abandon stage shows and straight
pictures have not been enough to
keep the house running at a
profit. Its weekly upkeep is said
to be $4,000.
When the MaStaum which en-
ployed a 75-piece orchestra shuts
down, the Boyd Theater will be
re-opened to show Warner Broth
ers pictures. Better business for
the Stanley is also expected as a
result of the readjustment.
Pittsburgh is another key city
shot to pieces through musician
trouble. Stage shows have been
discontinued in the two largest
houses, Loew's Penn and the
Stanley, with no sign of peace in
the labor war.
John Bar ymore's new picture,
'- le Mad Genius" is made from
a Martin Brown play, '"The Idol" !"
which served Lionel Atwill briefly
a few seasons ago.
Atwill, by the way, has gone out
to the Coast for a production Of

Barney Comes Back

Well, that finished me. I
made up my mind right then
and there-and I think I wrote
about it at the time-that I
would never write another obit-
uary until the body had been
lowered into the grave.
Mark" I told myself, you've
been a hope for the last time.
No more sob stuff tbout a per-
sons passing unless you're sure
that you know what you're talk
ing about"
So took my own advice and
Lid off. Not since the Ralph
Farnum case have I taken any
undue chances.
If you happened to read yes
terday's column, you will recall
that I mourned the loss of Bar
ney, my English bulldog. I loved
the animal. And, as he had been
missing for three days, I went
over his history and gave him
a fitting obituary.
And would you believe it, he
turned up five hours later just
as healthy and happy as he had
ever been!. =.

Ralph Farnum, theatrical rep
resentative and a grand guy.
Newspapers all over the coun-
try reported the fact that Ralph
had gone to his doom in the
wastes Of Death Valley. wasn't
going to be caught again-and
/ waited several days longer to
make sure that he was really
gone. When it seemed alb
solutely certain that he had
perished, I gave him what I
thought was a fitting obituary.
Now, Ralph is one sweet per-
son and I'm happy that he's
with us again. But look what
he did to me. Exactly two hours
after my story had gone to
press the wires carried the news
that Ralph had turned up safe
and sound, and wanted to know
what all the shooting was about.
Wouldn't you think the man
might have had a little more
considerations.

Percy Mackaye Play

Mackaye has authored for Repre-

is that poet-playwright's revised
play which we saw here some
seasons ago at the Belasco.
Charles Richman played d
"George Washington" and George
Marion was "Quillaqoun," a stroll
ing minstrel who recited the in
cidents in the First Presidents

Broadway critics numerically
panned the play but it attracted

feared member Of the narcotic
squad. It was well received and
the ending was particularly
spectacular, because Mr.. Muir
ply met his end when both
he and his car were riddled by
machine gun bullets on the out
skirts Of Chicago. Aboutrthree
weeks after I buried him Mr..
Murphy turned up in my office
and assured me I had been
slightly mistaken. Was my face
green?...
Then there was the story of
the attractive Kitty Banks. She
had worked too hard in the
Broadway cabaretS in order to
support her mother. She had
been advertised as the Physical
Culture girl, but she had de-
veloped tuberculosis. If I am
not mistaken, I buried her in

The Swing Toward Silver
From Mining Truth

The world appears divided into two classes: Those who think something must be done to end this depression and pre- vent another; and those who believe that nothing can be done. We are always and eter- nally against the can't-be- done crowd. Nothing worth while was ever accomplished without the active or passive opposition of the can't-be- dones.
 It is significant, but not strange, that less attention is now being paid to mythical reasons or incidentals, and more attention to the two maj or causes of the worlds plight: Characterization of silver, and speculation in issued stocks.
 In another column we pub fish an editorial from the Can adian Mining Journal, which is about ready to switch from the gold-standard cause to the advocacy of sound money. The Journal protests that it doesn't favor a fixed ratio; but the passages in bold-face i've picked them out for emphasis) indicate clearly that the Journ- al is swinging toward what is called bi-metallism. It may go all the way in another year.
 Most of the leaders in Amer ican finance who speak in pub- lie about 'stabilization" for silver, admit in private that the ultimate necessity is "remone- tization." They seem to fea, that the people are not yet ready to heed plain facts. We do not share this distrust o1 popular intelligence. We be. lieve the people are thorough, ly disgusted with the way hu man affairs have been misman aged. We believe the greatest need of the day is for leader ship with the courage to state the truth, even though it may be unpleasant to many.

From Boston we have receiv- d a booklet entitled "How to End the Panic and Restore Prosperity" The author IS Hugh Carney; publisher, the Thurward Press. A few pas ages are quoted:
 "The first pressing need of the moment is truth and hon. esty This world panic will not cure itself. *
 "He who closes his own eyes or tries to close the eyes of others to the actual facts of the present can hope to ac, complish nothing more, no matter how high his motives, than to increase the disaster. *
 Much of the misery of man. kind is due to the machinations of these over-shrewd gentle men who live to outwit their fellows.
 Headers of world thought and action have failed us pit fully. * They have talk en us to lower and lower depths, with bread lines ac- tually in operation in the rich est cities of modern times. S' Let no one be asleep to the dangers of Communism. * The sufferers from our pres ent grim world tragedy are al ready challenging the forms of our present wealth system. *
 Certain international bank ing interests * * have sought by forcing a gold stand. ard to concentrate within their own power anC control the material destinies of many millions. * i 'The demonstration of sil yer ripped ou' and destroyed large and i'm portant part of the money structure of the world. i "Monetize silver throughou the world. * * The mo ment that this is done the panic is over"
