turtles with an increase Of only
100000 population. In the
single century just passed, the in
crease on this side Of the Atlantic

The reason for this is believed
to be due to several causes-the
diminution of warfare, the sub

Of propaganda by various nations

most important Of all, the arrival
Of the industrial era with its pros

ut appears to me, however, that
there is a means of avoiding this"
he said. Africa Is at our doors.
The Black Continent can accom-
modate a part of Europe's popu-
lation. Africa is three times larg-
er than Europe and counts only
five Inhabitants to the square kilo-
meter. At the same time that it
provides a colony for Europeans,
it affords an outlet for European
industrial production once the
surplus population is settled there"
The former finance minister
believes that the idea of colon

than the ideas of dictators and
captains of industry, who believe
they have other solutions for
Europe's ills.

Something did, however-some-

Nixon still was just as good an ac-

lot of others, she suffered in the
panic which hit Hollywood at that
time. Producers just wouldn't
believe that silent film players
could talk. So Marian's contract
was not renewed.
For about year nothing hap
pened. Then a Warner execu-

a good bet on the screen. She was
given a contract and assigned to
leading roles opposite AL Jolson,
John Barrymore and George Ar

ture filing an entire sound stage
covering more than a city block.
The cast of Union Depot" is,
without question, one of the finest
ever brought together for pic
ture production. There are ninty

5000 additional players who lend
verisimilitude to the story. They
are literally hundreds of types in
the depot throng, in keeping with

upon the story and its draDatiza-
ton by Percy Heath and Samuel
Hoffenstein, who later wrote the
new screen drama.
For guidance in their work, the
two writer's had the original story,
the play version which Robert
Mansfield first presented in 1887 at
Boston, and the silent screen pro-
duction. Although the theme of the
story was not altered, many new
sequences have been put into the
talking film.
The writer's also focused consid-
cradle attention upon the romance
Of the story, which was minimized
in the original and in the stage
version and the former film. They
also adapted the new screen story
to the personality of Frederic
March who plays the title role.
Reuben Mamoulfan, director of
many stage successes and of "City

Frederic March, handsome Para
mount star, who has duplicated his
former stage success in many ex-

WILLIAM POWELL IN NEW
TALKIE "HIGH PRESSURE"
CLOSING TONIGHT AT STATE

William Powell gives a cyclonic
comedy characterization, utterly at
variance with the melodramatic
roles which have made him famous
in High Pressure" which closes a
highly successful three-day en-
gagement at Warmers State to-
night.
Recognized as past master, not
only in the portrayal of suave men
OF the world, but of sodden dere-
Ncts-Mr Powell, as the Gar Evans
pf High Pressure" is given a
chance to play both dandy and
down-and- outer, but this resem-
blance applies to externals only.
The real Gar Evans is unique, con-
scienceless, aggravating, lovable,
ludicrous, eloquent, compelling,
nonchalant, he is as gaily appre-
ciative of bottle, for solace, in
times Of depression, as he Is for
buyers, when his latest bambooz-
ling balloon Is on the rise.
Gar Evans, in short, Is king Of
all blue sky stock promoters, most
adept Of all moderns in the gentle
art of bucketeering. High Pres

leased. And After Tomorrow,
in which she plays opposite
Charley Farrell, has Just been fin
ished. Director Frank Borsage

as soon as the public sees her in

At least she was so good that
she has been given leading roles
