Once" presents a too thoughtful part
to be adapted to the qualities of this
excellent actor. Yet he puts force
into those stronger scenes in which
he reveals the qualities of loyalty
that are really inconsistent with his
place in the plot.
There is no reason to doubt that
real life presents instances that are
parallel to the story in this play
the picture of the wife who feels
confident that the husband, having
forfeited hope of forgiveness, will
return to make her happy. Human
qualities are such, however. that
many may be inclined to doubt that
anything could remain but the shell
OF character after a life OF immo-
rality. The same doubt exists in
endeavoring to find consistency In
the authors portrayal Of the man.
Yet here is the story and the family
is reunited. An emotional feature
is the devotion of both parents to
their child and the pathetic death
of the girl This part is played with
skill by Marlyn Knowlden, adding
one more child role to the screen.
Others who contribute to the story
are Juliette Compton and Godfrey
Kerr.
The customary products Of the
artist are found in the setting of the
stage presentation at the Palace,
while the Chester Hale Girls give
we'll drilled series Of performances.
The individual acts OF singing, dane
ing and comedy are supplied by
Eddy Conrad and Marion Eddy,
Gold and Raye. and Harrison and
Fisher. They are all good. Car
toons, traveltalks, selections by the
orchestra, film devoted to Bee
thoven in the Music Masters Series
and a newsreel complete the pro-
gram. D. c. c.

DIVISION Of WORK
AMONG ALL URGED
Maryland Representative De-
mands Industry
Take Step.
anecial Dispatch to The Star.


FREDERICK, Md. September o.
Expressing the belief that present un-
employment conditions were not tempo
rary. but permanent. Representative
David j. Lewis yesterday advocated leg
1slation that would require employers
to divide what employment they have
available among ali their workers by
reducing the working time of each.
The Maryland Representative offered
this idea for solution of the Nations
unemployment problem at luncheon
of the Frederick Kiwanis Club. Mr..
Lewis returned last week from a tour
of England. Germany, France and other
European countries. While abroad he
studied unemployment problems there
and methods fer relief
Mr.. Lewis termed his solution for
absorbing the countrys 6,000,000 I'M
employed "equipartition of existent
employment" BY that, he said, he
meant "a fair division of the employ
ment available among all the workers
willing to work"
Would Make 1t Compulsory.
Many industries are retaining all
their workers on a four or five day
week. The Lewis plan differed from
the program now being tried in that
the Marylander would make such &C
VIII compulsory OIl lIluuSlIy ny law
Advisory councils similarly constituted
in each industry periodically should
determine the number of work days
a week available to employees within
the industry, Mr. Lewis said. An excise
TAX equivalent to the money value
of the excessive time granted an en-
ploye, to compensate the unemployed,
should be imposed on any employer
granting a favored employee more than
his share of such available employment,
he added.
Alternative to Dole.
Mr.. Lewis offered this scheme as an
alternative to the dole, contending 1t
retained the basis of the dole system
without any of its bad features He
held that even four days work a
week would be much better than any
dole now paid or that could be COL
lected and would be quite equivalent to
six days wages in Europe.
