DRAMATIC D]I| ] ] 4 LOVE
 IN THE I ORIENT ]. THEME OF FILM
Barbara Stanwyck, Nil Asther Star in Feature
 at Capitol Sunday

A man she hated one minute and admired the next whc moved her from pity to scorn :. ..l who set every vibrant chord in her soul tingling with strange, forbid den emotions. That was General Yen. '-'
 A woman who was eYnotionally dead until she was thrown into the turbulent vortex of warning China who was slowly freed from the New England conventions that made her a prisoner to her. self for years t. who felt love for the first time, love, that storm led her heart, swept her soul. That was Megan Davis.
 A crucible in which fate stirred the boiling emotions of these two people, a man from the East, a woman from the West, drawn to- gether by a magnetism that breaks all barriers of convention, race and custom. That is The Bitter Tea of General Yen which will open tomorrow at the Capitol theatre,
 The Bitter. Tea of General Yen moves against background of nights of perfumed silence, of be- witching Oriental moonlight, un- der which the clashing cultures of two races fight out a never ending battle for the supremacy of. their love. Against this conflict, the wild excitement of civil war in China that seethes around Miss Barbara Stanwyck and Nils Asthsr pales in comparison.
 Big Shot," delightful romantic comedy of small town life with the inimitable comedians, Roscoe AteS and Eddie Quillan, with Maureen O'Sullivan in the leading feminine role, will be shown at the Capitol Theatre tonight for the last time

formance last night, Podrecca's

Rhapsodyin Black
Is ThriI|ine

Whatever one may like in enter
tainment. Ethel Waters and her
company, in Rhapsody in Black,
at the Howard Theater, are cer-
tain to fill the bill. For here is
a show to rave about.
It is packed with satisfying
thrills from the time the curtain
goes up, revealing Avis Andrews,
clothed in white shimmering silk
that sets off a perfect figure, di-
recting the orchestra playing
Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue,
until the finale when the entire
company in full throated har-
mony reveals hitherto unSuspected
beauty in that number, "You
Can't Keep Me From Loving YOU"
There is more than harmony
and syncopation in Rhapsody in
Black, however. The music, and
credit Cecil Mack's Choir, is
wholly satisfying, thrillingly enter
tanning and something that will
remain a pleasing memory.
Ethel Waters appears in four
numbers. She has an audience.
winning personality to begin with,
but more than that, this woman
can sing and act. Her numbers
are varied and it would be i'm
possible to put one before the
other as to merit. The song,
"You Can't Keep Me from Loving
YOU" fingers in my mind as an
amusing and thoroughly delight
full bit. Blue McAllister did his
part in pantomime to build this
into a smash hit.
Cecil Mack's choir is heard in
several numbers and their off,
stage harmony rings through
some Of the incidental bits on
stage.
Avis Andrews deserves high
commentator. Her directing of
the orchestra in the opening num-
ber is thoroughly theatrical, thor
oughly capable. This is a picture
to remember. Roses and wine
for the Andrews girl and for the
orchestra, too, that did things to
the Rhapsody in Blue.
Katherine Perry sings Cit AS
a Fiddle" and "St. James In
firmary Blues" You will love Miss
Perry and you will love her sing
Personally we never cared for the

Esther RaIston Is
Star Of RiaIto

Speeding toward a distant city
with a carload of very argumenta-
tive human freight, "The Rome
Express" now at the Rialto, gives
a glimpse into the life of each
of the passengers and manages
to encompass some momentous
periods in their career.
British made, this picture is
far superior technically and
histronically to any other John
Bull product which has reached
our shores. Esther Ralston and
Conrad Veidt, both of whom
achieved stardom on this side
have the featured roles, with
many other very English-accented
actors also to be seen and heard.
A thief who has purloined a
famous painting, a bored film
actress, a rather obnoxious gentle
man, two other CROOKS who have
been double-crossed, a couple
escaping from their respective
entangling marital alliances and
a so-called philanthropist all meet
and become entangled in a cory
murder. With the help of a
candy-eating detective everything
is Strengthened out and the
various people go their ways.
It's interesting and entertain
ing, if not particularly brilliant,
and what more can we ask in
these days? At times, things be-
come a little too Angliscized for
comfort, but only occasionally.
Esther Ralston makes a beautiful
American star, and Conrad Veidt
does the menace to the hilt. Joan
Barry, Hugh Williams and others
are all satisfactory.
"The Radio Murder Mystery" "
and the neWsreel complete the

Eddie Cantor's S
Show for Fox
BY ANDREW r. KELLEY

Loew's Inc. is plunging. on the
prosperity idea, on the thought
that business is o. K, or at least
can be kept up to normal with
the right attractions.
Which is one of the ideas in
booking in Eddie Cantor and his
special show for the Fox Theater
beginning Friday at a $4,000
weekly top. It's the most ex-
pensive act to be booked since
those days wren Roxy picked
those to play on F Street.
The success of Amos n Andy
inspired the plunge for Wash
ington programs. Correll and
Gosden, plus the Inauguration
drew more than $4,000 in the
first three days of their weeks
engagement. That's at a rate
to set an all time box office
record for the F Street cathedral.
The actors fund benefit show
tried for $40 a seat but didn't
quite reached it. That is some Of
the choice $40 seats found little
demand so at the last minute
they were showed to $5. The
audience which turned out at
the Belasco last night had more
class than any observed since
Design For Living" They en-
joyed seeing L. Stoddard Taylor
in the lobby once more and he
shared reception honors with the
venerable Daniel F'rohman.
Doorkeeper Lane and his high
hat was another Lafayette Square
spectacle that pleased. The Rev.
Francis ]. Hurney, chaplain of
the Catholic Actors Guild chap
eroned a large party to help out
the cause.
Throughout the West, where
the banking holiday, was early
applied, theaters are accepting
checks and I. o. us for admis-
sions. Motion Picture Daily thus
describes it:
Bank checks and I. o. us are
being accepted at box offices IN
many cities on the coast, the
Southwest and Middle West as a
result of bank clOSingS.
No change will be made in
some spots. Only patrons with
the exact change can get in for
cash.
In the San Francisco area,
practically all houses are taking
checks and refusing to make
change. The T. & d. Enter
prises, San Francisco TheaterS,
Inc, BIumfieId Circuit, Redwood
TheaterS, ms, and National
Theater Syndicate united in this
agreement affecting about 100
houses.
Checks were also common in

Fo. knives and forks-still in
the lower circles, naturally
they use their hands. We do
1t, too, I suppose, but aren't pic
MICS awful? And here's the
strangest thing Of all that I've
noticed: Back in New York, IN
the toughest circles, man is
looked upon as somewhat sissi-
fled if he has his nails polished.
But over here, the lower you
get, the more polish you'll find
on tie mans nails. He may be
dirty. He may be black. He
may be a beggar of the lowest
type. But those nails, brothers
and sisters, are brilliant red.
Ask me why, and I'll tell you
that have no idea.
Strang place, Egypt. They are
very proud of their Cairo. They
spend much money advertising
and they assure the tourists
that this city is the answer to
all their dreams.
Yet they will not spend a
penny nor lift a hand to rid
Cairo of it's worst plague; the
offensive dragomen and pseudo
guides who stand in front OF all
the principal hotels and annoy
the tourists shamefully. Nor
will they do anything to dis
courage the child beggars who
accost you at the rate Of 10 to
20 to the block.
The pholey guides are not
only a nuisance; they can, on
occasion, become positive men
aces. Thus, when you step from
your hotel, three or four Of them
will lean forward.
Do you need a guide, guar
dian, a companion, teacher, a
professor, a driver, a doctor, a
man to decipher heiroglyphics,
q brother to drink with you,
girl finder, a weather prophet,
q dog chooSer, a champagne
faster or a man to carry your
umbrella?
Eager to Serve
If you do, these dragomen
are at your service. If you do
not, they are at your service
anyhow. You try to be nice.
You tell them you do not need
their services. One or two OF
them may become discouraged
and drop back. But you can
always depend upon the other
one or two to keep peStering
you until you are positively on
the verge of going nuts.
The child beggars are just as
bad, and sometimes they are
worse. Little girls, seven or
eight years old, tug at your
suit and beg for aims: And
they're by no means 5ashful
about the things they say when
they beg, either.
Little boys. eight or nine
years Of age, stand around in
groups and insist upon shining
your shoes, regardless Of
whether you need a shine or
not. They plant their boxes in
rows so that, if you step past
one, you are directly in front
of another. And if you let your
shoes be Shined or you give one
little girl a coin, the Lord help
you before you have gone a few
steps further. Practically every
child in Cairo is leaping in
front of you.
Thus. if you attempted to
take a short walk in Cairo you
are bullied, accosted, yanked at,
pulled, insulted and annoyed
to such a degree that you are
only too glad to get back to
your hotel. The city, catering
extensively to tourists, could
stop it in short order. Yet moth
Ing is ever done.
Ask me why, and I'll tell you
that I have no idea.

Lille next offered her numbers
alone and the comedy team then
went into action. The audience
would have had them yet, but
they had to catch the midnight
for New York.

med acts failed to show up but
they were not missed. There was
enough and some extra. That
very handsome gypsy lady, Olga

Strange place. Egypt. AS l
stated the other day, the diff
ference between the rich and
the poor is more marked here
than it is anywhere else in the
world, with the possible excep-
ton of India.
Land of Contrast
You have some of the richest
people in the world dwelling in
magnificent castles-and you
have the lowest Of poverty
stricken mortals dwelling amid
scenes of indescribable squalor.
Yes, you're right. You're tell
ing me that the same situation
exists in many other nations
throughout the universe. Very
true. But where those condi-
tions exist. you always have a
certain amount Of unrest. Or
you have that rapidly spread
ing synonym for unrest-Com-
muniSm.
You find none of this in
Egypt. You may find unsettled
conditions and certain people
barking for a change in GER
tain government activities. Even
as I write this article, I am
assured that there will be much
ado in Egypt before very long.
But that will be the will Of
Northumberland not of the
masses. For the masses in
Egypt are content to be exactly
what they are.
