CALF. DEMO.
WAR WORRIES
PARTY HEADS
Sinclair Feud With
McAdoo Brings
Tension

WASHINGTON, Feb. Il.
(UP)-The left wing-right
wing controversy which has
sent some conservative east
ern Democrats bolting, the
New Deal parade showed up in
California today in new colors.
That state for the moment IS
the sorest political spot on the
Democratic political map. White
House conferences between Post
master General James A. Farley
and Chairman Culbert Olson Of
the California Democratic state
committee have not succeeded so
far in adjusting the party prob
lem.
The California split is between
Upton Sinclair's Epic organiza-
ton for which Olson is the spokes-
man as well as state Democratic
chairman, and the conservative
faction headed by Sen William G.
McAdoo. McAdoo has shown no
aversion to supporting New Deal
policies, but McAdoc and Sinclair's
end poverty in California organiz-
alton are as far apart as Alfred E.
Smith and President Roosevelt.
The Epic organization recently
gave President Roosevelt until Feb.
10 to choose at least 80 Of Cali
fornia's Al delegates to the Demo-
cratic national committee from a
list of 1913 names satisfactory t0
the Sinclair organization.
The deadline passed and the
California end poverty league an
nounced it would attempt to place
Sinclair in nomination fer Presi-
dent at the Democratic national
next June.
If Epic were given 80 conven-
ton delegates the next California
Democratic national committee
men would be an Epic choice. The
United Press learned on good auth
ority some delegates would be
chosen from the Epic list, but not
a majority.
The McAdoo forces demand that
the party be purged of Epic lead
ership in California. 1t appears
that the administration will not
go all the way with McAdoo on
that.

FILM
PUZZLE TO PATRONS
',e scoundrel," However, Is
aatly Turned and Well Worth
Price of Admission.

-OPLE haven't yet been able to
figure out just what Ben Hecht
Charlie Macarthur were about
en- they made THE Scoundrel,
Il the boys themselves won't talk'
ing a Hecht-MacArthur film, it is
,derstood that it is meant to take
.mebody for a merry ride, but NOBODY
sure whether the boys were kidding
,e central character in the film and
lie sector of society through Whlch
moved, or kidding the citizens who
, to movies, by handing them large
,rcel of hokum, smeared with brit
sophistication so they would think
was "art."
The controversy over "The Scoun-
ell" which now is at the Little Thea
r for q weeks revival, is concerned
l the main, however, with the mo-
yes of the producers and not with
,e quality of the photoplay. Even
,any of those who have seen "The
coundrel" and not liked 1t, have
creed that it is an artfu)ly con-
;ructed motion picture. Those who
rave not liked the film probably have
seen citizens with practical and lit
raj minds that could not reconcile
he latter reels and could not accept
e. hem for what they are-the purest
cf fantasy.
Hordes of other moviegoers have
found 1.-The Scoundrel" a thoroughly
enjoyable cinema experience and con-
cider it the best of the unique photo
plays turned out by Messrs. Hecht and
Macarthur. Its story, fantastic as it
is, is closely knit, the drama maintains
a pace that keeps interest keen, and
the dialogue is composed of brilliant
and brittle quips of the sort you try
to remember to palm off as your own
at some convenient moment. With
Noel Coward, who makes the only
film appearance of his career in the
central role, and the HIM team COL
laborating, the lines alone are bound
to be worth the price of admission.
The whole affair Is so neatly turned
that the fantasy Of the latter portion
of the film seems completely logical.
And don't ask how it could be logical
for a man to come back from a watery
grave to find some one to shed q tear
for him; go to the Little and see for
yourself. H. M.
