 Starting Sunday the Strands new show will be headlined by Cham pagne Waltz" Q brilliant comedy with music, co-starring Fred McMurray and Gladys Swarthout with Jack Oakie, Veloz and Yolanda, Herman Bing, Benny Baker and Ernest Cossatr.
 Champagne Waltz is built around the gaiety and charm of Vienna. MacMurray, an American swing" band leader, captivates the city with the new type music, playing havoc with the famous old Waltz Palace of the Strausses. He meets and falls in love with Miss Swarthout, who is the granddaughter of the musical director of the palace, but doesn't dare reveal his true identity.
 The dancing of Veloz and Yolanda in Champagne Waltz" strikes new high note for ballroom team dancing and Jack Oakie's typical comedy supplies much of the picture's mirth. The chorus work, in which $50 beau- tiful girls execute the new swing waltz rhythm, is particularly worthy of note.

Hollywood takes: No doubt it's just gag, but they say the studio stand-ins are planning a sit-down strike.
 There must be some significance in the fact that so many comedians went to see the exhibition of nightmarish surrealist art.
 Martha Rave and Sid Silvers weye first at the opening. A cou- plo of Marx Brothers dropped in. Jack Oakie, Ted Healey, Una Mer- kel, Jack Haley, and Gregory Ratoff attended.
 The Marxes are doing a lit- Ae sign painting on dressing F0om doors: "Maureen O'Sul- hvan Cleaning. and Press ing;" "AlIan Jones Vocal Les a0ns, also Bird CallS;" Esther Muir-Phrenologist."

 When they were ready he brought his wife and they in- gpected everything, making notes of . few changes. Then he gave the revised plans to an architect and told him to go ahead and build it-in Beverly Hills.

 Oiled Up
 Director Reuben Mamoulian showed consideration for extras that is very rare in Hollywood when he sent telegrams to a dozen of them regarding the next days work.
 The wires said: "On your Para mount call tomorrow you will be splashed with oil" He intended the message as a caution for the wear ing of old clothes, but two of the extras interpreted it as an order. They stopped at filling stations enroute to the studio and had them selves doused with oil from head to foot. They arrived woebegone and dripping, leaving trail of oil wher- ever they walked.
 Beach Musical
 Earl Carroll, having reproduced a couple of Shirley Temple pictures tnot to mention his Murder at the Vanities," which is best forgotten), now is considered to have learned enough about the movies to make & musical.
 It's to be called Beauty and the Beach," which sounds like glorified Sennett comedy. And I hope 1t is. They're looking for swimmers.
 
 And, speaking of swimmers, there's a plan afOOt to take Johnny Weissmuller and Lupe velex to the South Seas, CO., starring them in a native pie ture.

to Stock Regulations Held

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.

from the New York Stock Exchange
and administration spokesmen caused
speculation today that they were dis
cussing new approach to problems

dent few days ago.
Winthrop w. Aldrich and other New
York financiers have blamed Federal
regulation. in part, for the recent stock
market breaks.
Three days ago the Federal Reserve
Board reduced the buying margin on
securities.
A clue to the terms of the UNDER
standing yesterday, if one was reached,
apparently was contained in an off,
cial announcement that the con-
ferees agreed to the interchange Of
considerable statistical data.
This might mean that the commis-
sion will defer further regulatory
measures and. instead, order some
new studies of what goes on in tho
stock market

exchange delegation included Paul V.
Shields. president of the New York
brokerage firm Of Shields &, Co, who

PEACE PROSPECT
BELIEVED RISING
Spokesman Say Japan and
China Are Ready to
Discuss War End.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, Oct. 30.-Highly qualified
spokesmen of Japan and China have
revealed to the Associated Press that
their countries are ready to discuss
peace.
That was the hopeful element to-
day in the Chinese-Japanese conflict.
although the positions of the two
countries on terms for ending their
undeclared war were shown to be
widely separated.
However, international circles
thought peace talks can at least be
started in the Brussels conference to
open November 3.
Factors Aiding Peace.
Investigation disclosed the follow
ing factors aiding prospects for peace:
% Japan has been dragged far
ther into the war than she anticipated,
especially in the Shanghai region.
CD The japanese Navy Is reliably
reported to have frowned on the pres
ent venture in China.
(3) JapAn's accumulations of war
stores are being expended and will be
still further reduced by the long, even
If unsuccessful, defensive campaign
China can wage. This would make
Japan more vulnerable to possible at
tack by Soviet Russia
90 Japan realizes she cannot con-
quer and occupy all OF China, even If
she wants to.
Oil Playing Big Role.
(5) Oil will play big role in the
Chinese Japanese conflict. 1t is under
stood that China still has oil stocks
and continues to procure petroleum
from abroad Japan realizes that
possession of fuel for airplanes, tanks
and motorized equipment will enable
China to continue her defense indefi-
nitely.
(6) A rigorous winter campaign
would be disastrous both to China and
Japan, but especially for Japan.
Cd The slaughter at Shanghai, with
the killing of foreign soldiers. in
cresses the dangers of international
complications, which Japan seeks to
avoid.
49, China, facing q foe which con-
trolls the seas and Is trained for mod
ern methods of offense, can afford
to negotiate an honorable peace and
then build up powerful nation ca
pable Of resisting aggression in the
future.
