Brother Says Actor Leased Home

HOLLYWOOD, August 12.-Douglas
Fairbanks is going to continue his
world travel. but he has no thought of
renouncing his American citizenship in
favor of the British Empire, his
brother. Robert Fairbanks, told the As
sociated Press last night.
Robert Fairbanks. who is general
manager of the actors picture enter
prises, said a report the actor intended
making London his home evidently
arose from the fact Douglas recently
leased a small house in London for
use while he made picture in Eng
land.
Although Fairbanks wife, Mary
Pickford, said there had been no
change in their martial status" and
that she had not instituted divorce
proceedings. Robert Fairbanks state
ment was taken to mean Douglas had
no intention of returning to the United
States in the near future. Several
weeks ago Miss Pickford announced
she and her husband had separated.
The actors brother revealed that
Douglas is contemplating the leasing
of a small place in the suburbs of
Paris.

DIX ACHIEVES
NEW SUCCESS
IN FINE PLAY
''No Marriage Ties
ShOlUn on Screen
at Keith's.

THERE is somthing of the nature Of
a dramatic event at R-K-O Keith's
this week in mo Marriage Ties"
Nature endowed Richard Dix with a
capacity which has not always been
employed to the best advantage, but in
this film version of a stage play he
achieves as fine an effect as he has
shown at any time in his career. The
original was written by Arch Gaffney
and Charles Curran. Mr.. Dix is as
sisted by Elizabeth Allan and Doris
Kenyon, with impressive artistry, and
two others who contribute their best
are Alan Dinehart and David Landau.
1t is a forceful Dix who appears as
the playboy of the newspaper and ad-
vertising field, but he attains that re-
suit without any OF the exaggeratlon
which might be expected from a man
who knows no law and places his own
ability above all competitors.
Notwithstanding the fact that
somewhat ruthless triangle is created
between the star and the two women
who carry the story with him, and the
further tragic suicide of one OF the
women, there is a charm about this
production that must impress every
theatergoer who views its successive
scenes. One element of the charm Is
in the new quality to be found in the
acting of the man, who displays most
sympathetic attitude toward the two
women who have taken an interest IN
his career, marred as it is by his ir-
responsible acts and by his vacillat1on
in dealing with each OF them. An
other feature is the natural quality IN
the acting of Miss Allan, who creates,
in the role of a young artist, per-
sonality of informal and unaffected re-
atty that colors the whole play. Miss
Kenyon. also. as a business woman
whose life has been confined to an ex.
elusive circle, and whose impersonal
nature. early in the play, gives an aus
.erity to her work, reveals with delicate
fidelity to the truth of human nature,
the melting influence of the man who
has boldly challenged her and bestowed
his attentions where they were at first
rejected.
The triangle is throughout marked
by the suspense of traditional good
theater, and even when the man has
informed Miss Kenyon that his true
mate is Miss Allan. and has then been
rejected by the latter, there Is uncer-
tainty. as he once more tastes the cup
of dissipation and drops to lower
level, as to the ultimate of the plot.
The result is revealed in the end. when
the young artist returns from her
studies in Paris and informs him that
she has been convinced of the truth
of his words when he had declared
that she was destined for him.
The Keith program also has several
short films, including an interesting
story of the career of a Geisha girl,
with striking motion pictures of her
personality at various periods, produced
by a skillful japanese cameraman.

An example of swift justice was

60 days.

turned them over to a policeman.
Schmitt was anxious to get out of
town, so Assistant United States At

sentenced 60 days III jail each.

HOLLYWOOD. Calf, Aug. 11.-Now
that the screens two outstanding lovers

cites of this colony, and detectives, too,
will have a fine job for themselves
watching the comings and goings OF
Greta and Jack.
Hurried off the Fox lot yesterday,
where he has been assistant director
On a picture, Jack Gilbert posed before
the cameras hand in hand with his eX-
star and ex-romance and said enthu-
siastic things. Greta expressed enthu-
siasm also-in press agents phraseology.
But she looked her enthusiasm in the
picture.
When christina" was first being
cast, Greta insisted that NJ. G. M. get
Ronald Colman for her lead. This the
cbliging studio was not able to do
since, according to our movie laws,
Cclman belongs to Goldwyn or nobody.
Then Lawrence Oliver was sent for aft
er tests of Victor Jory and others of
the type had been made. Somewhere
about the time Oliver was in mid
channel or mid-ocean or what have
you, Miss Garbo thought Of the fine
thought OF it and she entertained it.
At any rate. the studio wouldn't en-
tertain it at ell at first But let
tiers came swarming in after rumor
stories had been started and, such is
the quaint way Of cur colony. the pro-
ducerS reversed their decision. Now
the two will emote and squeeze the last
drop of publicity from the faded ro-
nance. And again I say. according to
the quaint custom Of cur colony.

boat while trying to snare case OF
liquor from the water. The NarclSSuS,
stove in and useless, is sold at auction
to satisfy the claims of the other ship.
At the sale a friend of Annie'S bids in
the NarcisSus and offers to her the JoD
of running it-as the city garbage boat.
Wherefore, after so much struggling,
there lies the tale, on that level, and 1t
does not seem to have earned higher
fate.
Then Director LIE Roy snaps up the
action, whips out gusty ocean storm
cracks the rudder of Alec's ship, the
Glacier Queen, and sends forth the
Narcissus to rousing rescue. For 20
or so minutes things are popping around
the old film, and the pops are good to
hear. The rest of this films transgres
sions must be forgiven for the sake OF
the ending.

or lack of it, in 'Tugboat Annie" Soap
