AS daylight comes with the SophiS-
ticates exhausted from their debate
and hungry they find the romantic
urge has leSSened, the heart flames
quelled. 1t introduces a catchy
song, I'VE Were Dancing" sung
by the stars.
"FUMED OAK" Described by
the author as an unpleasant
comedy, or if you prefer, family
squabble. It has Mr.. Coward as a
rebellious cockney husband turn
ing on his nagging wife Gertrude
wrence) and mother-in-law
(Joyce Carey) and setting UP a
new bill Of rights for the head of
the house; in fact, walking out Of
their lives.
SHADOW PLAY" The most
pretentious offering and what the
author calls a play with music.
Victoria Gayworth (played by Ger
trude Lawrence) and her husband
Simon (Noel CoWarO have
reached mid-channel in their love
life and are planning a divorce
The action flashes back to their
romantic first meeting and to
their honeymoon in Venice with
the intervals taken up with music
and dancing. It ends happily.
All of these plays are acted
with distinction, for not only is
Noel Coward a master of the art
of enveloping a character but he
also possesses the faculty of direc-
ton developed to the nth degree.
Watching his craftsmanship is
delight to those who know their
theater.
BEAUTIFULLY DIRECTED
Miss Lawrence was transformed
from the frumpy housewife of the
second play to the alluring gowns
of Mayfair in the last and shared
equally with the Poo-Bah of the
FootlightS in the high glory that
won generous curtains and an
acknowledging speech.
Composer Coward sprinkled
through the action of the plays
at least two numbers which are
destined to be heard again and
again via our air waves. They
are 1--WE Were Dancing" and "You
Were There" with a third number,
Play. Orchestra, Play" probably
the choice of the swing addicts.
Above three playlets will be re-
peated tonight. On Friday the
last of the nine one-act plays in
the cycle will be presented with
the same program at the Satur-
day matinee. They are: ways
and Means" "Still Life" and

REPORTS CITES FAILURE
OF N. R. A. PRICE FIXING
Commerce Department Survey
Finds Regulation Generally
Ineffective.

By the Associated Press.
A general conclusion that price
regulation under the N. r. A. was a
failure was reached yesterday in an
N. R. A.-Commerce Department report
The finding was included in a 230-
page survey on minimum price regu-
lation.
The report said efforts of industry
members to exercise a greater degree
of control over their price structures,
are, of course, extremely common.
In seven of the industries studied
such efforts brought them into con-
flict with the antitrust laws In one
of these seven, and in three additional
cases, racketeering was resorted to in
a desperate effort to remedy condi-
tions.'

Council Must Approve

paper has published even the
faintest hint of the marriage nor
anything concerning Mrs. Simp-
sons divorce.
So far as Mrs. Simpsons future
status is concerned, Mrs. simpson
would not automatically become
queen upon her marriage to the
king. He will have to place the
matter before the privy council,
which must approve the union.
A morganatic marriage, how
ever, would not rule out Mrs.
Simpson as queen, since a NOR.
ganatic wife can become queen if
the privy council gives its consent.
Friends of the King stated def
nitely he is convinced his marriage
will be the wise and correct thing
for him to do, since he believes
it would be a mistake for king
of England to marry into any Of
the royal houses of the European
continent, thus involving himself
and his empire in the complica-
tons and disasters of these royal
houses.

The Supreme Court today
ordered a comprehensive test OF
constitutionality of the National
Labor Relations Act of the RooSe-
welt administration.
The courts action was taken in
granting petitions for review
sought by the Associated Press and
hg the Washington, Virginia and
Maryland Coach Company.
Argument in the cases is ex-
pected in November or early
December, with the high court
rendering its decision early in
the new year.
Question At Issue
In the Coach Company case,
the question was raised of
whether the labor act, designed
to enforce collective bargaining,
applies to a company admittedly
engaged in interstate commerce.
The company was cited by the
labor board for discharge of
workers in Alexandria, Va, be-
cause of union activities. The
company, however, asserted that
discharges were for other reasons.
The fourth Circuit Court, from
which the appeal was taken, held
the law valid as applied to the
coach company.
The Associated Press appealed
after the Labor Board had or
dered reinstatement of Morris
Watson, New York reporter, who
was active in the Newspaper
Guild. The board held that he
