THE Gielgud magic is not enough.
If you are one OF those who
thought he could play Little Red Rid
ing Hood with enough beauty to hold
a sophisticated audience spellbound,
you are wrong. Mr.. Gielgud has just
taken fling at the Dauphin Of
France in London. The play, He Was
Born Gay was written by Emlyn
Williams, fine actor himself and the
owner OF quite talent for dramatic
writing. The combination, however,
just didn't click. London critics with
the cooperation of London audiences
decided the whole thing was not worth
their time and money after u days
OF exhausting (sic) research.
II Gielgud took the play. as many
thought, as a piece to disprove the
assumption that he is just a Shake

I. Haines, Esq, thought up for his
play. It simply was not the kind Of
night for either cast or audience to
get into the spirit Of melodrama.
Moreover, 1t was an opening and while
nothing moved smoothly, nothing went
20 wildly askew that 1t put the audi
ence in stitches.
Whatever century the Roadsiders
went to for THE Wizard Of the Wave"
playwriting WAS not the terse thing
1t since has become. John T. Haines,
Esq. the author. fairly deluged his
drama with characters. Who was who
WAS not clear until sometime in the
middle OF the second act, a condition
which, we suspect, is going to make
the thing a great deal OF fun Just as
soon as it stops raining.
WHEN the audiences imagination
did finally get into step with that
OF John T. Haines, Esq, it developed
that some pretty dirty doings were
afoot, Twin brothers, one a knave,
the other \ paragon of virtue (how's
that, John T. Haines Esq? had come
to grips over bunch of gold and a
glorious gal. Ralph Fowler plays both
brothers, \ confusing proposition, as
1t is supposed to be. He emerges at the
end as our favorAe hero and william.
We did not wait around to see virtue
triumph but Kitty Prichard assured
us 1t would. We did stay, however,
through the sensayshunal battle
which climaxes the second act. 1t
was not clear just who won, but it
was thrilling to see pirates and sailors
failing each other with swords, dirks
and what seemed to be bread knives
Anton Hardt. the director, the scrap
pers and that off-stage scream all are
to be congratulated on the great en-
ergy and movement OF this segment OF

for verdict of first-degree murder.
Kopff said he would prove that on
July 81 neighbor found Paula's body
in the cellar of her parents home and
that Marks was in the neighborhood,
having gone to visit brother.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Oct. 26.-Pres-
ident Roosevelt had an opportunity
today to discuss the Nations budget in
terms of business conditions.
White House aides said balancing of
the Treasury's books was uppermost
his calling list included William o.
Douglas, Securities Commission chair
man, and Joseph P. Kennedy, first
chairman of that commission and now
head of the Maritime Commission.
The close interrelaJion of business,
taxes and the budget suggested Mr..
Roosevelt might be seeking the views
of the two officials on the relation of
the recent stock market zigzag to the
prospects of accomplishing his an
nounced aim to line up Federal spend
ing with income
Both Douglas and Kennedy are close
to market conditions and the causes
of such drastic changes as have taken
place on the exchanges durin, recent
weeks.
Mr.. Roosevelt also arranged to see

"I am a Democrat" Senator-elect

graphed Col Edwin A. Halsey, Secre-
tary of the Senate, asking that he be
assigned a seat on the Democratic side
of the Senate chamber and be desig-
mated as Democrat in the Congress

Miller was elected as an "Inde-

had pre-empted the Democratic nom.
ination for the Senate, through the
good Offices Of the State Democratic
Committee, which handed him the
nomination, but lost in the general
election. In his telegram to Col
Halsey, Miller said:
II was designated as an Independ-
ent on the ticket but this was neces-
sary under our statutes. This does
not affect my democracy, and I shall
certainly want to be seated on the
Democratic side"
Miller has been Democratic men,

years. AS a member of the judiciary
Committee in the last session he op-
posed President Roosevelt's court bill.

LONDON, Oct. 26.-King George
VI, an earnest figure in the splendid
trappings of Britain's ancient majesty,
pledged his government today to at
tempts to restore peace to China and
Spain.
At the same time, the monarch
promised air-raid protection for all
England and forecast more help for
England's needy families.
He opened his first Parliament from
the throne dais in the somber House
of Lords-with Queen Elizabeth in
a chair of state at his side-and con-
cluded with this unusual benediction:
Il pray that under the blessings of
Almighty God the outcome of your
deliberations may advance the hap
piness and well being of my people
and the peace of the world"

Usually the King merely invokes
divine blessing on Parliaments

speech delivered to the assembled
members of Parliament in the musty
grandeur of the. House of Lords hewed
to the usual formula.
1t began with: MY relations with
foreign powers continue to be
friendly"
1t told the legislators that the
monarch had invited Belgiums King
Leopold to visit him in November and
Rumania's King Carol next spring.
Then it dealt with the spectacle OF
war on two continents.
My ministers have followed with
growing concern the continuance of
conflict in Spain. 1t is their aim to
do everything which lies in their
power to assist toward restoration of
peace among the Spanish people.
They believe strict application of
the international policy of non-inter-
vention in Spain will materially con-
tribute to this end" the King declared.
The position in the Far East will
continue to engage the earnest atten-
ton of my government, who will per-
sist in their policy of attempting. in
cooperation with other governments.
whether members of the League of
Nations or not, to mitigate the suffer-
ing caused by the conflict and to
bring it to conclusion"
Speaks OF Rearmament.
He dealt thus with Britain's vast
rearmament program:
With full cooperation of my peo-
pie. the work of expanding and equip
ping my defense forces now is making
rapid progress. My ministers are anx-
ious that energetic steps be taken to
complete measures for the protection
of the civilian population against air
raids. A bill to put the necessary
arrangements on a statutory basis will
be brought forward for your consider
ation.''
Tersely reviewing domestic meas
ures to be laid before Parliament. the
King made special note that "the pol
icy Of improving housing conditions
be energetically pushed" ,
