Once Maid, Now
FiIm-Featured

HOLLYWOOD, June 16.-Uni.
verSal studios and Director John
M. Stahl in particular, have just
given Louise Beavers one Of the
finest roles ever given a colored
actress.
Chosen from more than 800
colored actresses who applied for
the coveted role, Miss Beavers
is to assume the character Of a
cook who, by virtue of her de-
licious cooking and candy making,
assists a white woman in estab-
fishing a nationwide chain of
"Sugar-heart" parlors, a role to
which the creator, Fannie Hurst,
has given unusual sympathy and
dramatic expression.
Miss Beavers big chance"
comes in Claudette Colbert's Uni
versal starring vehicle, Imitation
of Life" and Director stahl and
Screen Adaptor William Hurlbut
have so developed the Hurst story
that the talented colored woman
will not only have a role winning
greater sympathy for her race
than any preceding film play has
afforded, but also allowing her
more "footage" in which to prove
her histrionic talent.
Miss Beavers has been in mo.
ton pictures more than 10 years,
serving as q maid In q Hollywood
studio before taking up acting.

dictate the trend of thought which has

setting up a new system in our island,
the important feature of which is that
while we are not doing so by name we
are in fact creating monopolistic lnsti-

and liberty of conscience. 1t we once
lose our liberties for which our forefath-
ers and our predecessors have struggled
and suffered, we lose our character and
we lose our souls. We want to make
sure of the ground on which we are to
set our feet before we move
It seems to me then we ought to take
time before coming to any decision. Let

Were it not for the contiulng character of this trend, 1t might be supposed that the present low estate of the old conservatism mere ly is a passing phase. eB
 Many forget that the decline of the "Old Guard" began many years 20, and gained great acceleration even in the days when Republican Administrations were riding high at Washington. a
 Theodore Roosevelt gave "Old Guardsmen" scare, but little more. They stayed in the saddle, though their grip on the reins began to be less sure.
 The real descent toward extinc- tion began as far back as 1926. In that off-year election. despite the popularity of President Coolidge several of the stalwarts were swept overheard. More and more of them have gone with every succeeding election year.
 Perhaps the depression hasteneo the process, but it scarcely can be assigned all of the responsibility The trend was plain and progress sive, long before the depression be. gan.
