well imagine thousands killed in the
districts through which he passed.
All government Offices were instructed
by the governor to open for business
as usual today. I'VE must have every
body go to work." he said. "as though
nothing had happened-only more So"
Mayors Of the stricken towns who
called on the governor last night were
instructed to supply emergency relief
for 48 hours. Requests for casketS in
wh:.h to bury the dead were refused.
Gov. Beverley explained that burial was
up to the municipalities.
The insular governments duty is to
care for the living" he said.
Communications were SO crippled that
complete information on what parts of
the island were hit by the storm was
still lacking today. Woodfil Buttem, the
Governors secretary, who made tour
of much of the north coast by airplane
said he thought the hurricane passed out
to sea just west of San Juan. The in
sular chief of police, however. said he
believed the area hit was much more
extensive.
He said he had reports % were killed
at .Areciba, much farther west. But
TENS plane did not cover this area be-
cause Of the heavy rain.
No Americans Hurt.
At least 800 Of the 1000 dwellings OF
the ocean front section of San Juan
either were destroyed or damaged so
greatly that it was impossible for their
occupants to continue living in them.
During the storm hundreds of families
found refuge in the ancient Spanish
fort of San Cristobal.
The casualty list in San Juan itself
was kept down because police, warned
in advance of the imminence OF the
storm, rounded up hundreds of women
and children and placed them in
churches and school buildings, which
were much more substantially built
than their homes. In the villages little
protection of this sort was available.
The Governor ordered Adjt. Gen.
John A. Wilson to call out 400 National
Guardsmen to assist the police in San
Juan and vicinity. Judge Pablo Berga,
chairman of the Puerto Rico chapter
of the American Red Cross. and Capt.
Antonio J. Silva, executive secretary,
also we're participating in the work OF
caring for storm sufferers.
A preliminary check indicated that
none of the Americans living here was
killed or injured. But no American
resident escaped without property loss.

At the MOVIES
Grand Hotel Stars
Had to Submerge In
dividual Personalities

Submerging Of star personalities
into characterizations was the direc-
torial task involved in the making of
Grand Hotel' as a motion picture,
according to Edmund Goulding, who
directed the perturbation of the cele-
brated Vicki Baum play, which is now
playing at the Paramount Theatre for
four days.
Usually, picture is built around
star personality" explained Could
ing In a recent interview. "Often a
story is tailored to fit the star. In
Grand Hotel we had a directly OBJ
posite situation. There were five
stars playing five separate and CEN
trail roles. It was more problem Of
fitting them into the characterize
tons than making the parts fit them.
With such outstanding players as
Greta Carlo, John Barrymore, Joan
Crawford. Wallace Berry and Lionel
Barrymore playing these roles. the
center of the stage or the camera eye
had to be divided into five component
parts. Footage was shared evenly and
a certain uniformity was maintained
throughout.
When we started production on
the picture 1t appeared we might en-
counter sons difficulty In obtaining
the desired subordination Of the star
ring personalities. But almost from
the outset, the players wrapped them
selves so completely into their roles
that the result has been the most
magnificent individual and collective
performances have ever witnessed
on the stage or screen.

Today Is Good Friday
Program of Services at the Episcopal
Church Is Announced
Today is Good Friday.

Today is Good Friday.
Rev. Alfred S. Lawrence an
nounces this program at the
Episcopal church: 10:30 A, M,
Ante Communion; IL to 3 2. NJ,
Three-Hour Service; 5 rs p. M,
Children's service.
The term Good Friday is
thought to be a corruption Of
Gods Friday. The Anglo-Sax-
ons and Danes called the day
Long Friday, possibly because
of the length of services pre-
scribed by the church authorlt-
les. The Episcopal church here
seems to be living up to this an
cient tradition by arranging a
three-hOur service.
In the old times the day was
marked by a rigorous fast, and
this manner of observance has
not been entirely abandoned. In
Spain, during one period, the
churches were closed on Good
Friday as a sign of mourning.
One church historian writes !:
"The three-hour service, borrow
ed from Roman Catholic usage,
and consisting of prayers, ad-
dresses on the seven last words
from the Cross and intervals
for meditation and silent pray
er, has become very popular IN
the Anglican church, and the
observance Of the day is more
marked than formerly among
Nonconformist bodies, even in
Scotland"
