HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Feb. 19-Be- fore Ernst Lubitsch became Man aging Director of Paramount, he was to have directed Marlene Diet rich in a picture. But his elevation to production chief changed this plan, and Frank Borzage was se- lected to succeed Josef von Stern berg as the Dietrich mentor.
 The first Borzage-Dietrich film, Desire" bears the marks of Bor- gage Dietrich Lubitsch picture, as though Lubitsch, it's producer, could not refrain from injecting his saucy spirit into the celluloid play by Ed win Justus Mayer, Waldemar Young and Samuel Hoffenstein.
 At any rate, Desire is de- parture for Borzage, the master of screen sentiment as eXemplified in Seventh Heaven" Bad Girl" and other human comedies Desire" is comedy that grows sentimental only toward it's end, and even then with suspicion of tongue-in- cheek.
 GlamOr0us Comedy
 The picture reunites Marlene with Gary Cooper, her leading man of Morocco" This time Gary is CO., starred Marlene plays a dazzling, clever jewel thief, and Gary is the American from Detroit.
 Marlene no longer is the languor- ous beauty of multiple close-ups, but a glamorouS comedienne. Cooper is likable and exhibits a talent, hith- erto little suspected, for this sort of comedy Exceptional support is given by John Halliday, Ernest Cos sart, Alan Mowbray, zeffie Tilbury and Akim Tamiroff.
 The Milky Way" is expected to restore Harold Lloyd to his old po- sition as a front-rank laugh-getter of the films. Based on the stage comedy the picture offers Lloyd as the milkman who stumbles into SfOunQleSS lame as prlZeIlSnter.
 Same Old Lloyy
 It is typical Harold Lloyd char acter and, as gagged by the screen writers, the play has become a typical Lloyd vehicle of old Tim orous Harold gets into mounting difficulties, and gets out to the tune of hilarity. But others in the cast notably Adolphe Menjou, Helen Mack, Dorothy Wilson, George Barbier, Lionel Stander, and scintillating Verree Teasdale share the honors, with one of the big laughs contributed by Marjorie Gateson. Leo McCarey directed.
 Chester Franklin, who directed the scenically beautiful "Sequoia," offers photographieally appealing picture in Tough Guy" A great area of Southern California lahd- scape is the background for a rou- tine cop-and -robber m e o dra m a about the love of boy (Jackie Cooper for a dog Rin-Tin-Tin, Jr) and a gangster Joseph Cal leia) whose hard heart is softened. Callelia is excellent, the dog ditto, and Jackie Cooper-at his age should stop crying.

1T wasn't Comics fault some

Helen was cooler than Patsy and
I. "I might have been," she said.
after all, we don't know why she
was killed until we find out who
did it. # you ever read these
murder reports and stories, you
usually find that the victim did
something to cause it; it's not al
ways the murderer's ugly emotion
alone"
I regarded Helen with more re-
spect. She did think sometimes
and I wouldn't be surprised If she
was expressing an underlying
theory Of the police when they go
probing into what looks like peo-
pies private business. I was still
cross, however.
"All right" half growled, get
ting up from the lunch table, but
still say it is gruesome to think
that any one Of these persons We
know-Mr. Perkins, Melvin, Bruce
Lloyd, or either one Of the others,
Hym or Mrs. Carrington-could
have raised a revolver and killed
our own French teacher" and I
added to myself, cor my very own
brother!"
The girls were more subdued. I
guess some of my disgueSt ana
quiet penetrated, for the discussion
practically ceased.
On the way home that after.
noon in Dicky's car, I relaxed
against the cracked leather until
a bump bounced me over where q
spring came through. I had just
settled myself again on a piece OF
fairly smooth cushion when Dicky
suddenly grabbed the emergency
brake and put his foot on the re-
verse gear of his model-T Ford.
We stopped with our usual hop
backward.

Late extra. Let's see what It
is"
He got out two pennies and I
found one. So we bought the
paper. On the front page was
Mrs. Carrington's picture and be-
side it was a story that I knew
would warm Helen's heart. A con-
ductor had now been found who
believed that he could identify
Mrs. Darlington as a woman who
came to st. Joseph that Sunday
night, October 16, on the eight
forty-five train.
The Darlington theorists now
had their innings. Each suspect
seemed to have his or her follow
ers, as Dad said, and they took
turns saying "I-told-you-so" to
each other. The Darlington
group gained some new adherentS
the next day when it came out
that Mrs. Darlington was actually
on the verge Of a nervous break
down and had been taken to a
hospital. I was all prepared for
Helen who had completely con-
verted Patsy. Dicky was still neu-
tral, even as I was. We were
neither Of us Satified with the guilt
Of anyone, perhaps because I was

Investigate every clue.
Friday passed without further
sensation. But Saturday shifted
the attention again. About nine
o'clock in the morning our tele-
phone rang. It was a long-diStance
call for Dad from Los Angeles. I
told the operator that Dad was at
his office. She talked to someone
at the other end Of the line, then
asked when he would be at home.
'We viii call again then," she
said.
I thought nothing Of it, as Dad
naturally gets calls from all over.
But when he came home for lunch
he seemed surprised, as he had
not expected any message from
there. We were all due for q

shock when 1t came at 1880, for
it was Bruce Floyd!
Dad was actually shaking when
he came back from the phone. He
told us who it was as he sat down
to the table. I dropped my fork
with terrific clatter. Mother
spilled the tea, and Aliens gasp
was audible. We were q bewild-

what did he want?" Allen
cried.
He wanted to tell me where he
was and that he was returning to
st. Joseph. He apologized for any
uneasineSs ale had caused me, as
sured me he would see me tomor'

Mother.

OF course that question was mine.

have said was glad he was return
ing, that I would depend on him to
do So"
"Was the blonde woman with
him?" was my next one.
"I don't know, Curly. I didn't
ask"
Didn't you ask how he got to
Los AngeleS?"
"No, mother, don't believe such
questions would have been quite
appropriate over the telephone"
"No-o-o, I suppose not. But"
"But you'd like to know the an
swers! Well, so would I; perhaps
we shall by tomorrow"
"Do you think the police will be
$3.50"
"Antagonistic?"
7 nodded. Eyes, antagonistic.
Don't you think they will give him
credit for returning when they had
lost him?"
My father shook his head. "He
evaded the law; he broke his word.
If he returns now, the first step
will be to investigate his motives,
both for the flight and for the re-
turn"
Gee, I shouldn't think he would
have returned If he were guilty
when he had already got away"
What goes on in mems minds Is
hard to define. His guilt or inno-
cence are still open questions.
It was still an open question,
too, as to what course Allen was
going to take. He and I avoided
each other as much as possible,
meeting only at meals. I looked at
him miserably, questioningly, ex-
pectantly each time he entered the
room. It must have driven him
crazy, for he watched my every
move, started every time I spoke
to dad, regarded me with a COM
bination Of fear and anger. BY
Saturday night, I was a nervous
wreck, and no kidding. I began to
wonder if I would ever sleep again.

of course. She came to see me at
once when I didn't go down for

morning?"

well, you can stay in bed a
while, sweetheart, and go to late
mass"
She kissed me and left to get the
others off. I heard dad and Allen
go, then she tiptoed back to my
room. My head was just a big ache
and my body felt as if had been
beaten black and blue. I couldn't
control my legs nor keep my eye
lids from twitching. I was sure I

GETTING FOOTHOLD

No matter how secure we may feel in this coun-
try against large scale invasion of Communism
il might be well to hear some of the warnings we
are hearing today and to take note OF the lncfeaS
ing evidences of Red activity.
One of these warnings was sounded yesterday
by ~ II. Hubbard, president of the Navy League
when he charged in Navy Day address that LOU
Communistc centerS have been set up in the Unit
ed States in an effort to spread subversive theories
Three millions of our children ne declared
ARE under active tutorage in Communism Hun
dreds of English and foreign language newspapers
are published in the United States openly avowng
and teaching Communstic doctrine with no other
possible intent than the undermining of our form
80 government and its destruction by revolutionary
forces"
4 revolutionary venture by those elements OF
the nations population might appear today to be
exceedingly remote and that is probably true. But
rho mere fact that such CommuniStic enterprise
i opparently far removed is no reason to believe
that the seed that have been and are now being
sown will not one day flourish to the detrment OF
future generations of American citizens.
One of the most effective means of battling these
forces which seek to undermine the American form
Of government is the deportation of all unnatural
lied citizens and very rigid tightening OF this
nations immigration laws. When this has been ac-
comnIshed there will be much less danger that
our present form of government might one day be
undermined by Red teachings.-AnderSon Is. CD

THE ERICSSON INCIDENT

Communist candidate for vice-preSident, James W.
Ford i'm North Carolina for a speech, would pass
off without much being said or done about 1t. Ana
we were in for that very thing. Durham let hm
come and make his speech without any Jurors or
todo" in sharp contrast to the action OF the Tampa
folks and the incident would have been forgotten

MANY folks in North Carolina by whom he Is en-
n,oved as a teacher at the University. If he had
half the sense that Ph.D is supposed to warrant
he would have known that this would never DO
He is said to have been acting on his rights as a
rr;vate citizen, but he should have remembered,
too that he is a member of the faculty of the Uni

With such as this going on, it is no wonder that
many people are blaming the University for its
radical and socalistie leanings.
We wonder that some vestigc of common decency
or common sense would not have prompted Dr.
Ericsson and deferred him from this breach Even
the most ignorant black in the South knows where
to draw the line in situations like this Surely the
learned doctor of philosophy should have known
better too Or, is it that he is Haunting the people

For several years the people of the State have
been mutterng to themselves about conditions at
the University. 1t has been mostly from others
than University folks. But this latest outbreak has
brought forth heated statements from University
alumni in Charlotte and elsewhere. There will be
more, we imagine, and it ought to be the begin

of direct representatives of the people; 1t is the
closest of any governing body to the people and
with an election every two years, it may the more
easily and quickly be displaced if its acts contrary
to majority wishes. Democracy, justice and the
general welfare, it seems to the Daily News, are
best promoted in this fashion.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
DEMOCRACY IN ACTION

One of the criticisms which has been aimed. and
perhaps most tellingly at democracy these latter
days has had to do with its cumbersomenesS' us
neasticity and the circumscriptionS which prevent
il from dealing with rev situations and problems
promptly and effectively.
The critics further point out how these condi-
tons obtained in the sphere of federal government
when the depression enguifed the country and now
Mr.. Roosevelt, TO get around such rigdity, found
it necessady to take the bull by the horns, so to
speak Such discussion has continued with specula-
ton as to what can be done under the constitution
or what constitutional amendments will be neces-
sary to remedy the situation. Strange as 1t may
seem. some of those who have advocated more
malleable democracy where Mr.. Roosevelt and
Washington are concerned are leaders in opposition
to similar mobility which North Carolina would
provide in the dispensation of it's governmental re-
SponsibilitieS.
And that brings us directly to the purpose of the
pending amendments upon which the Tar Heel
electorate will express itself next week 1t is con-
coded that North Carolina is woefuly lacking in an
intelligent. progressive and permanent tax policy
If any mandate came out of the last primary IL
must have been an order for the next general as
sembly to revamp the states tax system and put IL
mon a more equitable basis. Not only does the
1887 assembly face this command, but the neces-
sity for raising additional funds along with pro-
lection of the states credit and its HOMECOMING
citizenship gives double incentive for providing the
legal means with which to meet these new and
pressing problems
The tax amendments are permissive. They unite
the legislatures hands and give it the right to take
certain action if, and when it sees fit They thus
represent democracy in action; relelief from that
rightly, cumbersomeness and ipeasticity which
have been so roundly deplored by Washington and
