Haywood of Pasadena, has been
equally active in civic and social
circles. She has just recently re-
turned from Europe where she at
tended both the sessions of the In
stitute of International Relations
at Geneva and the London Econ
omic conference.
Both women are brilliant speak
ers and the Women's University
club takes pride in presenting two
such representative women who are
converSant with world affairs and
who can consequently give a breadth
of view to their comments on the
club theme.

ON
MARY DOUG.
BY LEICESTER WAGNER
United Press Staff Correspondent

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 1.-THE old
Hollywood custom of second
guessing the martial affairs of Gin
ema headliners was in full swing
today as conflicting reports were
heard on the future course of Doug
las Fairbanks and Mary Pickford,
separated since last July.
In the absence of formal state
ments from the principals, their
matrimonial status remained juso
as it did when the sceen's most
perfect coupleT parted company;
neither contemplates divorce at pre-
sent.
Reports published in trade news
papers that a reconciliation had
been effected between Miss PickfOrd
and Fairbanks, who now is in Lon
don, brought only statement from
the actress representative that
Miss Pickford has nothing TO say"
Close friends of the pair We're
nearly unanimous in agreeing that
there would be neither divorce nor
reconciliation. They based their be-
lel OH JllG ldCG llloG ulNOiCc Weio
distasteful to Miss Pickford, and
yet conflicting interests would keep
them apart. Mary enjoys her work,
he social and civil activities. DOUG
is the globe -trotting -adventurer,
who makes pictures when the spir-
it moves to keep his company fin
anced.
The machinery of the Pickford-
Fairbanks production company has
accumulated rust and cobWebs dur
ing the past year and it was only
natural, friends said, that Doug be-
gan a new film in England.
Mary, having made only one pic
ture, Secrets" in the past year,
plans another to keep the financial
burden of the company from bear
ing too heavily upon her shoulders.
Overhead of the famous couples
film company, and upkeep of their
Beverly Hills home, eats heavily
into returns from pictures still in
circulation. Overhead is merely an
other name for the wolf at the door.
Mary has turned her attention to
other activities since she complet-
ed her last picture.
She has written a play, Coco, y
soon to go into production with
Grace Moore in the leading role.

These are pamphlets which deal

ers are building for themselves.
AS soon as the workers found the
factories in their own hands there
came change in morale. Under
Kerensky the tendency had been to
elect lenient foremen. Under their
own government, the Soviet, they
elected foremen who put discipline
into the shop and raised production.
AS early as June, 1918, for example,
In Vladivostok, in shop where 5000
workers had produced IS railway cars
a day, 1900 men began turning out
IL cars a day entirely because of
shortcuts, efficiency devices, reorgan-
ization Of the work, etc., introduced
by the workers themselves. In other
shops there was a similar procedure

Out Of chaos, the workers brought

had been organized. This was or
ganized collective work voluntarily
rendered after working hours or on

FULL SPEED AHEAD!
BY NATHANIEL BUCHwALD.

MOSCOW.-On May 1, one year
after the Dnieprostroy power-station
produced its first current, the shock
brigades of Dnieprostroy (their name
is legion decided to signaIze the
first anniversary of the first Dnie-
prostroy current by another demon
stration of the triumph of socialist
construction.
BY a splendid burst of shock work
and enthusiastic collective effort they
got the great three chamber lock of
Dnieprostroy ready on May for the
trial passage of the first steamer
from the river below the dam to the
other side across the dam, a jump
81 meters high
As piece Of engineering this lock
is ranked here second only to the
great dam itself.
To achieve the centuries old dream
of making the Dnieper navigable
throughout, it was necessary to pro-
vide for the Jump" of steamers be-
tween the high level on the upper
side of the dam and the low level
ON the lower side-a difference Of
about 100 feet. This Jump" was
made the first time in history on May
l, when the steamer Sofia Perovs-
kaya followed by 25th of October
passed through the three chambers
of the Dnieprostroy lock and steamed
into the wide calm Dniepeg.
It was thrilling event. The fact
that the trial passage was to be
made on May l heightened the SOL
emnlty of the occasion.
There was not a person among the
$4,000 workers Of Dnieprostroy who
did not feel the double significance
Of this event.
The steep shores Of the Dnieper,
the top Of the great dam and the
edges of the lock were covered with
people 1t was like mammoth
stage with several levels of such dar-
ing constructive" settings Of such
vast perspectives and such mass
scenes as the most imaginative thea
trical producer could never dream to
achieve. Yet 1t was the real thing.
a mass of FACILITATING humanity
strewn over the high banks of the
mighty Dnieper, clinging in precari-
GUS and perilious positions to every
rock or ledge that afforded view of
the lock and the steamers that were
about to enter it.
Hundreds of the best udarnikS Of
Dnieprcstroy were among the invited
guests aboard the two steamers.
About four o'clock in the afternoon
the last preliminaries were completed
and Sofie Perovskaya was ready to
enter the lock. Yet the steamer did
not bulge.
The passengers ON board grew UNI
easy. There was anxiety on their
faces lest something unforeseen would
interfere with the long-awaited test
ing of the lock- Soon it became known
that the delay was due to the absence
of Gregory Ivanovich Petrovsky, pres
ident of the Ukrainian Soviet Soci-
alist Republic, who had been de-
tanned
