ridiculous fellow from the comintern
and futile Negro member of the revo-
lutionary cabinet, thus adjusting the
balance trifie.
A s have said, the only real trouble
with such plays is that their
attempts to dramatic the confusion
Of these liberal heroes almost invari-
ably result in dramatic confusion
Obviously, the reason for this is that
the authors themselves do not see
clearly, and that they are using their
plays, not to present any valuable
thoughts on the position of the mid
dle-of-the road intellectual, but merely
as outlets for their own bewildered
musings. Their liberalism is not a
carefully considered point of view, but
the lack Of any point of view at ALL
When there is thoughtfully con-
ceived philosophy back of the liberal
viewpoint there is some chance that
such a play as Rain From Heaven
or End of Summer" will emerge
When the author, himself, does not
know where he stands in the modern
world, it is almost certain that such
a work as And Stars Remain" or
ITO Quito and Back" or THE Ghost
of Yankee Doodle" will be the unfor-
tunate result Confusion can bring
about strange things in the theater.
1t was merely that good liberal con-
fusion that made the Guild put an
other critics words over my name
recently and caused me ungraciously
and suspiciously to suspect that it had
been done on purpose. should have
known that 1t was no more inten-
tional than the quality Of some of the
plays the hapless organization has
produced of recent years.
Heaven knows, there is much to be
said for the liberal point of view in
social matters, and I, who share its
bewilderments to so great a degree,
feel that I am scourging myself when
I denounce its weaknesses. But as a
political theory it has the great flaw
OF making one so careful to see the
mistakes Of both sides of an argument
that he falls into complete ineffectu-
ality. This is true just as much in
play writing as it is in political con-
duct, and ineffectuality is one of the
dramatist's greatest possible sins. And
1t must be remembered that the fellow
who walks in the middle of the road
may be able to see both sides, but he
also is in the greatest danger of being
run over by some one going a bit
faster.

4 is making people laugh. In
"Hooray for What!' Russell Grouse
and Howard Lindsay have, given him
an idea to futter over and the Shu-
berts have supplied him with some
beautiful handmaidens. But the fact
is, all Mr.. Wynn really needs is people
to laugh out loud in front Of him. He
has them now. "Hooray for What!" Is
our newest hit.
When Mr.. Wynn was hollering
around inside q radio tube and loud
speaker, it wasn't a very pleasant busi-
ness for his friends. Something seems
to happen to our comedians on the
radio All those who have taken to
the air have deserved to get it. While
Mr. Wynn's flap doodlings over the
antennae are not forgotten, they can
now be forgiven. In "Hooray, for
What" he is a chemist with a genius
for inventing poison gas. He also has
q tender heart which leads his genius
into odd detours. He Is taken over by
a munitions company and for it he
concocts such hair-raising items as
a brotherly love gas and knot gas.
"This is a new gas" he tells his
boss. "It's knot gas" "WeI," says
the boss, patiently, 'if it's not gas,
then what is it?" ''1t is gas" replies
Mr.. Wynn, "it's knot gas" and in a
little while he is blue in the face
and screaming, sit is gas; it's knot
gas. 1t is gas; it's knot gas" At the
moment of greatest pain in your sides,
Mr.. Wynn's eyes light up. "Oh," he
says, what mean is it ties you into
knots" and squirts it on his boss, who
is contortionist named Ferry, the
Frog Man. The frog man gets an
opportunity to go into his act. wind
ing up with his legs tied around-his
neck and, as Mr.. Wynn explains, sit
ting in his own lap.
Thus far in this report the show
seems TO be all Wynn. That is not
entirely fair to Paul Haakon, who does
two ballet numbers gracefully, and
the five Reillys-three brothers and
two sisters, kids all-who stop the
show twice with the most gepial kind
of comic tap dancing. Nor is it doing
right by Vivian Vance and June Clyde,
who sing the songs Of Harold Arlen
and e. Y. Harburg. When you hear
Down With Love" or "I've Gone Ro-
mantle on You" or viva for Geneva"
you'll know what large portions OF the
populace are hooraying for.
But Mr.. Wynn is on the stage all
but a few minutes, and without him
there would have been nothing but
girls and boys, singing and dancing.
