BY the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf, July 81
Eddie Cantor, the beetle-eyed come
dian. said yesterday his grievance
against his film employer, Producer
Samuel Goldwyn. would most likely
be taken to court.
Chafing under what he termed I'M
necessary delays in preparation for the
seventh of his annual starring films for
Goldwyn, Cantor said the next move
probably would come from his at
torneys.
"Since last December" Cantor said,
"Mr. Goldwyn has had an opportunity
to prepare picture story for me. !
got word in May to report to the studio
for work, and when arrived in June
the company was unprepared and it
still is"
Cantor said that delays would inter-
fere with later engagements in the
East.

STATE

The most dramatic era in the development of California, leading to the great gold rush of l040, forms the background of "Sutter's Gold" which opens at the Warner State theater today.
 Edward Arnold is starred as John Sutter, who established the "em- pire" of New HeIvetia in California. On his land was discovered the gold which brought 100000 wild-eyed treasure seekers to the Golden state within Q year. The opening scene finds sutter in his native Switzerland. Then the story follows him to America, across the conti- nent to Oregon, to the Sandwich Islands and finally to California, where most of the action takes place. r
 The frenzied lawlessness of the gold rush brings ruin to sutter. When his spirit has reached its lowest ebb his wife gives him new courage. Dramatic events follow In swift succession, and the final see quences show Sutter in Washing ton, D. O., carrying on Q long cam- paign to secure redress from the government.
 Heading Arnold's enormous sup- porting cast, Lee Tracy is seen as Perkin, Binnie Barnes as the Rus- sian countess and Katharine Alex ander as Mrs. Anna Sutter. Other important roles are played by Ad-
