LAVISH SPECTACLE
Up to the present time the
screen has never given us such
opulence, such magnitudinouS
Splendor and such boundleSs
spectacle as this "Rosalie" pro-
vides. 1t is really 10 eyefuls of
. production.
In these before-release obser-
vationS, 1 would like to serve
more in the role of a critical Co
lumbus, rather than as an ana
1ytical correspondent. 1t struck
me that the preview audience
was let in on two comparative
newcomers who have something,
who seem destined to be on the
movie escalator that is gliding
to the loftier spaces. I refer to
Iona Massey and Ray Bolger.
IIiona Massey is a VienneSe
prima donna, recently imported
and thrust into "Rosalie" with
out any great preliminary build
UP. She has all that is neces-
Sary for looks, an operatic voice
Of sweetness and volume. and
there is a cute charm about her
acting. Given a free rein 1
suspect she could have raced
right away from those more
, heavily exploited. Soon she will
be co-starred with Nelson Eddy
and watch her smoke. 1liona

{ No. / dancing comic.
Mr.. Bolger made very brief
appearance in the screen Great
Zlegfeld" but here his op-
portunity is greater. He doesn't
get much of a chance to dance
but what he does do is strictly
top notch. It Is as comedian,
a breezy West Point cadet that
he shines, with only meagre
laugh material. When L,eo-the-
Lion really permits Ray Bolger
to cut loose with all of his
tricks, his name will be spelt in
the biggest maZdas.
The story opens at an Army
Navy football game where Eddy,
a West Pointer, makes the saw
ing play, and Rosalie, a princess
of Romanza, a student at Vas
sar incognito, is looking on.
When she is taken home to
marry a sappy prince, Eddy flies

The war in Spain continues with
reasonable certainty that il win last some
months longer. The rebel leaders now adj
nit that recent events have dissipated the
high enthusiasm that Madrid would fall
soon and the government claims that it
has been helped by a rush Of volunteers
into the army.
Americans who read Of the battles
naturally have their own opinions as to
which side should win but let Us not for
get that it is tragic affair any way one
looks at the struggle Thousands Of men
are being killed and countless women and
children are suffering. with others certain
to endure the agony Of war;
The ruthless butchery of men and
women is deplored by US very deeply and
we mourn over the fate Of women and
children in bombarded cities-the victims
of both sides-as well as over the death
and suffering of priests and nuns. who
were slain in the fury mysterious as it
seems of Catholic people. The butch
cry Of mass executions has not been the ex-
elusive monopoly of either side.
How thankful should we be that in
this country the ballot. box serves to set
tie our differences and that the people
here are. apparkhtly. educated Ii the ways
of democracy and ready to accept the exs
pressed win Of the. people, How. long
will it take the othqfq aqo4s u the 1orld
to learn the same lesson no one knows but
the question should make Us more deter
mined than ever to safeguard democratic
processes in this country.
Fundamentally, what are democratic
processes Not the form and not the cere.
mony, but the actual protection of the vel.
fare of the great mass of the people,
whether it be accomplished by existing
laws and institutions or new laws and new
Institutions. Let the fruits of democracy
be tangible and no force can prevail
against it; let the fruit of democracy be
misty vapor and idle talking about rights
and almost any movement can over
throw it.
: The friend of democracy today is the
man who wants it to succeed in way
that means something to the welfare of
the average family After all, that is the
reason for government and its only JUS.

WHAT ABOUT BASEBALL?

About this time of the year old base
ball fans begin to get the fever and watch
anxiously for the major leagues to swing
into action.
Occasionally, one hears somebody
wonder why the boys of today do not play
baseball. The speaker generally appears
at a loss to explain what to him, seems
a mystery
OF course. the boys Of today have
other things to take their time, like the
automobile and the moving pictures, but
there never was crop of boys who did
not like games. The simple reason why
they don't play baseball is, because they
have no place to play the game
Thirty years ago, bef9ra paved streets
and automobiles came along, you could
watch a game of baseball, in The proper
season, on almost any street in feaRn. A
stray horse and buggy, or q pair of mules
and a wagon, might meander along oc-
casionally but the players had plenty Of
time to get out of the way and the game
didn't stop long. Today, the streets are
not available to children for play because
of the danger of being injured and killed
by speeding automobiles.
Where can the boys play baseball?
Think it out and you will find that. while
the boy population has grown amazingly
in thirty years, the available baseball
grounds have dwindled to almost nothing.

Mr.. Eceles believes that an easy
money policy Is desirable so long as
large numbers OK people are unem-
ployed: hat rise in interest rates

Of capital: that the price rise ia cer-
tain basic commodities has been due
to such noBmonetary factors as
naonopolistic practices on the part Of
both employers and organized en-
psoyees. and that they should not be
controlled by restrictive monetary
policy, since this would reduce the
nations buying power: that money
must be used as servant to increase
production and employment: that the

that the remedy for price imitation.

is through more production rather
than through restrictive monetary
policies; that an easy money policy
should be accompanied by prompt
balancing OF the budget unless this
has to be done at the expense Of the
destitute and unemployed; that the
budget should be balanced through
an increase in taxes: that only by ball
ancing the budget and increasing
taxes can imitation be prevented: that
the remedy lies not in restrictive

eminent Intervention for the purpose

lieves to be the causes Of rising prices.
His Recommendation Of a balanced
budget and his criticism Of certain
monopolistic practices of employers
and employees. like several of his
other comments. are in genera sos.nd

Economics Of Eccles Opinions

are symptomatic Of an expansion Of
business. and yet they do not retard

recommended increase IN taxes
would depress business and encour-
age public spending.
e would be difficult to produce evil
dence to support the contention that
recent price rises are due principally
to nonmcnetary factors rather than
to monetary forces. The statement
that price imitation can be avoided
only BY the processe- Mr.. Eccles out
lined is not true. The way TO stop
imitation Is to understand what il Is
and what causes it. then stop II BY
the use Of the appropriate insiru-
meuts Of money and credit control.
There should be Move to balance
the budget. but Il is better that it be
done by reducing expenditures than
BY raising taxes.
Mr.. Eccles recommends an increase
in production. This is desirable. but
he offers no useful suggestion as TO
how this Is to be brought about. and
be overiooks the fact that an increase
in production viii for . time generate
higher not lower prices. because

SHOULD Continue until the goods being

mand: then the price level Would
cease to rise. provided the currency Is
not inflated. But our currency is much
inflated now. and much Of the rise In
prices is for this reason resting upon
this inflEtionary Sorce. So long as we
have an inflated currency. productive
activity will not rest upon a sound
basis. buying capacitS likewise will
rest upon fragile Foundation. and
production and consumption will not
come into a desired equilibrium and
sustain themselves there.
Many Of our problems and dangers
