Jealousy Forms
Plot Motive
Of Picture

Two high-priced Hollywood
celebrities are co-starred in
Devil and the Deep" current
film feature at the Earle, but the
picture for all that is pretty
nearly 100 per cent Charles
Laughton'S.
Laughton is a British char
acter actor, imported to play the
role of the commander in this
cinematic drama of a modern
Othello. and his portrayal gives
Gary Cooper and Tallulah Bank
head a mark to shoot at.
The story revolves about the
jealousy, which finally develops
into madness, of a submarine
commander whose wife is attrac-
tive to other men. To the world
outside, Sturm is likeable fellow
who has been deeply wronged;
but to his wife he is the incarna.
ton of jealous persecution.
He achieves the transfer, IN
disgrace, of his lieutenant, whom
he suspects of being in love with
his wife; and the lieutenant's
successor is marked for an even
worse fate. Sturm deliberately
places his ship in the way of q
great liner, and places Sempter
Gary Cooper at the periScope
before the submarine is run down.
Thereafter the picture is de-
voted to the conflict between
Sturm, mad, though the crew
does not realize it, and Sempter
for control of the ship. The
latter wins, and the crew Is
finally saved.
Cooper and Miss Bankhead give
conventional portrayals. without
special distinction, but Laughton'S
acting will be remembered. Cary
Grant does we'll in a minor role.
The vaudeville includes AIDE.

those who like his style Of

thoughts of how he should
break the bad news to the girl
who waited for him, and who
depended upon him.
You know what happened.
Sure. 1t just had to be, that's
all. When it was all over, Pietro
stood in the center of the floor,
shaking, and staring at the
butcher at his feet. The knife
fell slowly from his hand.
They cited the old unwritten
law, which has SO often been
proved better than many of the
written kind. At the end of the
trial, Pietro heard the judge say
Twenty years." and they led
him away.
In prison, he got along very
we'll with both the inmates and
the authorities. Sometimes,
when the warden had company
to his home, Ttetro would be
invited to play the violin. And
sometimes, when the keepers
felt in a benevolent mood, they
would let him play sad Neopoli'
tan songs in his cell.
Somehow, prison life didn't
stifle this boy. During the heat
of the day, he worked on the
prison farm, without complaint.
And when he was permitted to
play his violin, that made up
for many things.
A few years ago, the warden
had a novel idea. Why couldn't
Pietro make up a prison Or
cheStra? Other jails were doing
it. Surely there were enough
musicians in the prison. And
they could rehearSe during GER
tain hours, and amuse the other
prisoners twice a week.
Pietro went wild about the
plan. He canvassed the entire
prison until he got the men he
wanted. Then he got enough
subscriptions, with outside help,
to allow him to buy music for
the group. Then they re-
hearsed.
The boys band became the
most popular feature of the
prison. Quartets were arranged
and the radio executives weren't
long in arranging for broad
cast.
Was a Success
Soon the music of these men
escaped from the prison walls
and floated free all over the
country. In a mild way, the
prison band became a sensa-
tion. Radio listeners began to
listen for that sad Neopolitan
theme song. Letters poured in
by the thousands.
heard the finish Of the
story two weeks ago. A we'll
known conductor made a special
trip to the prison to see Pietro.
He told the boy that, due to
his popularity over the radio,
it would be a comparatively
simple matter to arrange
pardon for his crime.
Further, he said that Pietro,
once free, would be able to get
a job in a good New York Or
chestra. That he would be a
drawing card on account of
his prison record, and that he
could command a high salary.
Pietro shook his head and
smiled.

After four days of declining markets,
representing an average loss of S points,
the situation at the opening Of the
stock market today was this Industrial
stocks were A.. points above the low
of January 5. but nearly II points be-
low the high point Of January IS.
Rails were 3 points above their pre-
vious low of the year, but had lost
points OF their recovery The utilities
were the nearest to their January lows
OF any of the three groups, their
average being less than point up from
the minimum of January S.
Taking a group Of so stocks compris-
ing representatives Of the three groups,
it was found that the general average
was only 3 points above the January
low and II points under the January
high. 1t is significant also that today's
opening average was less than a point
higher than the low average Of Decem-
Der IT. All Of this had the effect Of
emphasizing the possibility Of another

depression period. If this occurs it will

STOCK YIELDS DECLINE
TO 1858 PER CENT BASIS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 6.-The le-
thargic January advance in stock
prices, coupled with important divi-
dend cuts and omissions, resulted in
a moderate drop in the average yield
on 285 active issues listed on the New
York Stock Exchange, according to the
monthly computation by Moodys In
vestors' Service. The average return
is placed at 1858 per cent on February
l, as against 11.55 per cent at the be
ginning of the year The only indi-
vidual group recording an increased
yield during the month embraced the
sugar stocks, the survey states Yield
declines were most marked in the case
Of steel, tire and rubber and railroad
stocks.
Moody's weighted dividend index for
600 stocks dropped from $196 on jan
uary l to 81 189 one month later. The
latter figure compares with the peak
OF $305 set in March, 1880. The
ANALYSIS remarks that a further sub
stantial decline in the index is already
indicated for February, due to the
changes already announced in the first
few days of the current month.
