FUTURE Of SILVER
PRICES DOUBTFUL
Metal Dealers Believe, How.
ever, That Trend Will
BE Upward.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 20. -
sharp difference of opinion exists here
as to the outlook for silver and the
possibility of its being used as basis
for money by countries that have de-
serted the gold standard.
Bankers, international, commercial
and investment, believe that Great
Britain will return eventually to gold.
Some 60 so far as to insist that most
Of the gold ear-marking here last week
was for the account of the Bank Of
England, the gold purchases being made
out of the proceeds of sales of British
holdings of American securities here.
Brokers' Opinion.
Many brokers, members of the Ma
tional Metal Exchange and metal pro-
ducers, declared today they were willing
to lay bets that silver over the next
week will go higher before 1t will go
lower International dealers in metals,
however, are inclined to agree with
Edgar Shows summary Of the silver
situation, cabled yesterday from Shang-
hal, pointing out, however, that over
the long period a gradual rise in silver
prices Is justified.
Meanwhile the shares of silver mining
companies on the various exchanges
here have advanced and dealings in
silver futures on the National Metal
Exchange have reached record proper
tons to the accompaniment of the
higher quotations.
'Basically, the furry in silver" re-
marked an international broker, lis
due to the decline In the pound ster-
ling. The suspension of gold payments
hxy nvtka aNtls
mean that she will 60 on a silver basis.
It is possible Britain again may re-
turn to gold.
Just as a lower price for the pound
sterling will stimulate Britain's export
trade, so will lower price for the rupee
stimulate midas export trade-that is,
If the rupee is permitted to slide along
with the pound sterling.
"A gain in Indian exports means
increased silver purchases by that
country, for it always takes its credits
in the white metal. No sharp advance,
however. in silver appears to be justi-
ned at present"
Warning to Traders.
While New York has conducted pur-
chases and sales of silver with Shang-
hal, it has had no dealings with Bonn
bay for week. since the latter's silver
mart was closed. Bombay has always
conducted its silver dealings on ster-
ling basis. Now that both sterling and
the rupee are off gold and there are
exchange restrictions, it is impossible
TO conduct direct silver trading between
this center and Bombay.
Don't be short of silver at this time
It could go up cents an ounce any
day." warned a member Of the National
Metal Exchange. One of the big nom
ferrous metal executives expressed an
almost similar sentiment, being willing
to bet silver will reach 40 cents an
ounce before 1t hits 20 cents an ounce"

Mr.. Stiller found producers in Berlin
willing to back q picture he wanted to
make in Constantinople. Greta was to
play the leading role. This trip to
Turkey Greta thought would be the
greatest adventure of her life. She hur-
ried home to pack.
When she actually found herself on
the train for Constantinople Greta felt
that she must be in a dream. First
there had been success in a great role
in one of the biggest productions ever
filmed. Then selection As the protege

on her way 10 a foreign land to play
the lead in another of his important
pictures.
Life was no longer tiresomc and mo-
notonous for the little GuStafsson girl.
In fact, that awkward girl had long
since disappeared. There was a new
girl in her place: a charming. talented,
beautiful person known on the screen
as the actress Greta Carlo.

C;rpta Carlo could not believe she
had actually been chosen to play one
Of the. most important roles in Costa
Behring'S Saga" Every one at the
school was talking about this marvellous
story that the great director Mauritz
stiller was going 10 make into pic
ture.
the, famous stage star Lars Hanson
Rad been chosen 20 play the male lead.
The most Greta expected was a minor
mart. and now she had been selected TO
play the Countess Dchna.
Creta never wanted to do anything
az badly as she wanted to play this
part and yet she ives efraid. The
thought OF going through the highly
dramatic scenes before the camera
with this strange man. Mauritz Stiller,
directing terrified her. The whole thing
seemed too big for the inexperienced
girl Of II.
Those first days at tho~stuoio arrang-
ing for the necessary costumes, study
ing the script and rehearSing the
scene$ were an experience never to be
forgotten.
Director Clears Set.
At last the day arrived for the actual
shooting" Of the first scenes. Greta,
made up and in costume. was waiting
for her entrance on the scene. Sud-
denly che became H. When she was
called before the camera she thought
she was going to faint. Mr. Stiller rec
ognized the symptoms of nervous ex-
citemnnt. He ordered every one, even
the electricians, OFT the set. Greta was
aeft alone to pull herself together.

But Mr. Stiller was watching this new
girl He wanted to see what stuff she
was made of. He hoped he had not
been mistaken in her strength and
courage
Slowly he saw her regain her COM
pcsure He quickly called the other
members Of the company back onto the
set. In q few minutes Greta was
plunged into the making of a picture
that was to start her on the read TO
world fame.
Greta found she could not laugh and
joke between scenes on this picture as
she had in the others. While making
Costa Behring'S Saga" she felt that
she actually was the Countess Donna.
Wrenching back and forth from Greta
Gustafsson (she had not yet adopted
the name Garbo) Nto Countess Donna
was more than she could stand. So be-
tween the scenes she would wander
away from the others and sit alone,
without talking to any one. The other
players, who did not feel their roles so
deeply, commenced to whisper that
Greta was upstage.
Indifferent to GOssipS.
Greta knew they were gossipirfg about
her, but she didn't care. Her ono
thought was to make a good job of the
part she was playing.
Mr.. Stiller soon realized he had found
great talent IN Greta. and she appre-
c.atcd the ability OF the director. Each
day she threw herself heart and soul
into her scenes. At night she went
home exhausted from having given
every ounce OF energy she possessed.

nounced it Just that Special notice was
called to the unknown actress Greta

1t was then that Mr. Stiller and
Greta decided the name Gustafsson was

Returned to Drama School.
After the picture was finished Greta
returned to the dramatic school TO re-

self so fine an actress that the school
director signed her on contract as

Dramatic Theater while she was mn

But Creta Carlo was destined not to
60 on with her studies. Mr. StllIer
found that he had place for her In
his next picture RE suggested that she

her time to acting before the camera.
She asked to be released from her

Carlo turned over the management OF
her career TO Mauritz Stiller.
Mr.. Stiller invited his protege TO
accompany him TO the premiere OF

first premiere of Greta's was brilliant.
The theater was filled with society folk,
