CHAPLIN OPPOSED
TO HIS CHILDREN
Being IN MOVIES
Noted Picture Star Will Attempt
to Abrogate Contract
Signed BY Ex-Wife

Los Angeles, Aug. 24.-(P)-One of
the greatest of all movie successes
himself, Charlie Chaplin is so oppcs-
ed to his two young sons starting In
his footsteps at their tender age that
he plans court action to prevent 1t.
Counsel for the famous pantomimic
artist said he intends to file, possibly
by Thursday, a petition contesting the
right of his divorced wife, Lita Grey
Chaplin, to take the children into the
movies without Chaplin's sanction.
The former Mrs. Chaplin has had
custody of the children since the di-
vorce some five years ago. She re-
Gently signed a contract for herself
and the boys-Charles Jr., 6. and Sid
ney Earl, 5, to appear In pictures for
Fox Film Studio.
Chapln's lawyer. Lloyd Wright
said the divorce agreement is worded
to prevent the boys being started on
professional career except by mutual
consent of the parents.
Wright said the comedian feels his
sons are too young to subject them to
the influences of a movie career. that
they should be given the best oppor-
tunity for normal boyhood develop
ment and allowed in later years to
select their own careers-movie OF
otherwise. Chaplin also was repre-
sented as feeling he had made ample
financial provision for the boys.
Mrs. Chaplin Is reported. to have re-
ceived a $650.O00 settlement in the
divorce and $1,000 month for sup
port and education of the children.
Chaplin, for the first time in two
years, took the boys away from home
for several hours Monday for a re-
union.
