BARRYMORE
RIFT CALLED
TEMPORARY

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 5 U.N.S0.
John Barrymore did not hire a
new lawyer for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning a divorce even though he
did revoke powers of attorney
given to the fourth Mrs. Barry
more and to Aaron Sapiro, his
former attorney.
That was announced today by
Attorney Henry C. Huntington,
who added:
Nothing like divorce suit Is
contemplated Absolutely no &C
tiOn Of that sort is in prospect"
ATTORNEY is IN DARK
Huntington was less definite
when asked whether the famous
actor and his bride, Elaine Barrie,
were reconciled last night after
their New Year Eve spat.
He replied:
81 really don't know. l can't
go into those details, you know"
Before Barrymore's 21-year-old
bride went into seclusion last
night she blamed BarrymoreS
jealousy for the rumpuS which
broke up, temporarily at least, two
months of welded bliss which fol-
lowed their airplane elopement to
Yuma, Ariz.
Rift Over Career
She said:
Everything was going beau
tifuIIy until / cauSually men,
toned that I had signed con-
tract to open a theatrical en-
gagement in San Francisco.
Then the trouble started. John
left home and refused to return,
saying 1 must choose between
him and a career.
81 have decided to go on with
my play. I am young and be-
lieve 1 have right. to combine
my duties as wife with those
of an actress. / think it will
work out in the end. John will
remain with Ken Kelley, his
trainer, for few days. 1t is bet
ter for both of us, this way,
right now.
JOHN INSANELY JEALOUS
Il love him and 1 cannot
bear to think that our parting
will be permanent. But we
cannot be happy while he is so
inSaneIy jealous. He is even
afraid that 1 will meet some
young man on the stage and
forget him. So he insists that I
limit my professional work to
plays and pictures in which he
appears"
Mrs. Barrymore said Barry
more's action in revoking her
power of attorney was "ridicu-
lous," adding:
"I have never had the power
Of attorney and have never
handled any of his business
matters"

A Hundred Years Ago

Probably no one person ever had such an influ-
ence over the whole world as did Queen Victoria, who
was elevated to the throne of England just 100 years
veloped in her lifetime into the worlds greatest en-
pire, and by marriage her sons and daughters into
the royal families of Europe, she welded an influ-
ence which extended far beyond the British domin-
ions.
1t was an influence which was definitely bene-
standpoint. II is the fashion to sheer at the high NOR
al standards set and upheld by Victoria. but it is not
to be denied that their influence upon the character
of whole people was a better influence than that of
any of her predecessors.
There is no one living today who is over SO
years old who was not born in the Victorian Era.
There are few whose parents or grandparents were
not reared under the Victorian tradition. That was a
tradition. That was a tradition of sound morals, good
manners, and of respect for the fundamental truths
of religion. If at the same time the Victorian era was
one of bad taste in art and architecture, it was at
and architecture of today is a break with the Victor
ian past.
In the hundred years since Victoria assembled the
throne the whole face of the world has changed, and
with the development Of new machines and inven-
lions even the thinking world has changed. But it
should not be forgotten that all of these changes be-
gan during Victoria's reign. and took root in the so
cial and economic system for which she was herself so
largely responsible.
