The commission alleged the five

business Of all manufacturers and

In promoting their common in

market and of the prices Of their
products" the commission alleged, the
associations "have combined together
with others. jointly preventing the
establishment of new and additional
competitors, and executing certain
agreements and conspiracies among
themselves and with others"
The practices alleged to have been
put in force included efforts to
monopolize distribution of automobile
parts and accessories in the hands OF
so-called Legitimate jobbers. meaning
jobbers who have made known their
willingness to maintain resale prices
suggested by manufacturer members.

Days announcement caused a
storm of controversy. While he I'M
doubtedly had the legal right to
duplicate the play Mr.. Mansfield
was producing, many persons ques-
toned the moral right of the pro-
posal. The situation grew more
tense when it became known that
Mansfield was paying Rostand some
royalty while DAILY was paying moth
ing for the use of the play.
The DAILY production opened in
Philadelphia but never reached New
York. The Mansfield play gained
heavily in popularity and finally
DAILY withdrew from the competi-
ton.
Cyrano de Bergerac was real
person although the author of the
play took the usual dramatic license
in constructing his hero's character.
Cyrano in the flesh was a poet. an
adventurer and a famous duellist.
One of his literary efforts was "A
Trip to the Moon" a little piece of
fanciful writing which was the FORE
runner Of many of today's magma
tive essays.

ties who play the violin for no other
reason than that they like the in
strument, and Charlie was listed
along with Mussolini, Upton Sin
clair and Einstein.
Paderewski, on his last visit to
New York, remarked that he was
disappointed because none of the
Charlie Chaplin films is showing
here"
In Hungary several weeks ago a
poll was taken by one of the lead
ing newspapers in which it asked
its readers that if seven world
famous figures we're in danger and
only one could be saved, who would
they cheese to rescue. Chaplin
won by a large majority of votes.
Books, music and sports occupy
what little time Charlie has left to
himself.
A story is told about Charlie and
Douglas Fairbanks at a time when
the two happened to be together in
Hollywood several years ago. Doug
challenged Charlie to a race from
their adjoining Beverly Hills homes
to the United Artists studios, six
miles away. At the start Doug took
the lead but as they neared the stu
dio he began to weaken. Charlie
slowed down and finished a tie.
Then as Doug slumped into chair,
Charlie sprinted ten times around
the building. He hadn't told his
friend that he won many ribbons as
an amateur long distance runner in
England,
Charlie Has Choice Library
Few of the visitors to Charles
home know that his library contains
some of the worlds choice volumes.
On his last trip to England the
comedian bought the best books
from the library of the late Arnold
Bennett; first editions of Frank
Harris; complete set of Punch"
dating from its first issue, dupli-
Gates of which it is impossible to
get now; and first edition of
Gray's "Elegy."

ago. The incident shows that there
almost is complete generation who
never has seen the comedian on the
screen, and yet the legend of his
antics lives through the years when
he doesn't produce a picture.
There is much to attest to the
magic by which Chaplin has been
able to captivate young and old
alike. One example is the row of
shelves in the Chaplin home in Hol-
lywood which is lined with scrap
books containing press clippings
concerning the comic. Charlie has
talked less for publicity, and re-
ceived more, than any other actor or
actress-including Carlo.
Fifteen years ago imitators of
Chaplin swept the country. On
vaudeville stages, in musical come
dies, among amateurs, any one who
impersonated the funny little man
with the cane, was sure of applause.
Recent clippings from Japan re-
veal that representations of the
comic are still going on in the Orient.
They tell of a contest for the best
impersonation of Charlie Chaplin"
in which hundreds of natives took
part, swarming the streets in ORR
entail interpretations of the film
comedian. Like contests have been
held recently in England.
There is a bridge in Rotterdam,
Holland, with a large statue of Mr..
Chaplin on the parapet. Puppets of
Charlie are featured in both Tony
Sarg's marionette show, and that of
the Yale Puppeteers.
The original costume which
Charlie wore when he first donned
the derby. stick, baggy trousers and
large shoes, has been presented to
a Los Angeles museum and may be
seen there, draped about a sculpted
figure of Mr.. Chaplin.

Richard Mansfield saw the play
in Paris and decided to play the
tragic-comic Gascon hero in the
United States. AS Rostand had not
had the foresight to protect his
drama by copyright and as the pres
ent international copyright law was
not then in effect. Mansfield did not
have to go through the formality
of securing the right to produce the
play in America. All he had to do
was to get a copy of the play and
learn his lines.
Mansfield gave the play in the
Garden Theater. New York, for the
first time, Oct. 8, 1898, in an Eng
lish version of the book by Howard
Thayer Kingsbury, with Margaret
Anglin in the role of Roxanne.
DAILY Also Prepared Play
In the meantime Augustin DAILY
also had prepared the play for pro-
duction at his theater in New York,
using his own version of the play.
Ada Rehan, at that time at the
height of her dramatic powers, was
to play Roxanne, and Charles Rich
man, just coming into his own as a
leading man, was TO play Cyrano.
