Hollywood-The serious business of comedy-making is occupying Hollywood these days, and the cy- cle of merriment has swung a long way from the time when the fun ny picture was just brief little hors d'oeuvre on the entertainment bill of fare.
 Indeed, old timers say there haven't been so many comedies scheduled since 1925, when George Marion, Jr., and Ralph Spence were rushed from one studio to another writing gags and the col- ony was filled with acting teams. including George Bancroft and Chester Conklin, Wallace Berry and Raymond Hatton, Charlie Mur- ray and George Sidney.
 Radio gets most of the credit or the blame, for the current stam- pe.ie. The studios will hire any, boly with a large following of any kind, whether Oracle Allen or Ma hatma Gandhi. So they hired practically all of the radio comics, and once they were brought here it was necessary to find something fo: them to do.
 Paramount has 24 funny men and gals on it's contract list. Twer- tieth Century-Fox and RKO each own 13. Metro has 12, if you count the three Marxes individually, and

CAPITOL

The infinite talent of Joe E.. Brown was never better eXemplified than in "When's Your Birthday" the David L. Loew production which opens Sunday at the Capital the atcr. As comedian of his type, we think there is no one who ap- breaches him in easy versatility, nor any whose fleeting expressions are quite so funny to behold.
 This hilarious picture has the completely novel background of as- trology. The subject is ideally suit ed to comedy treatment.
 After series of lessons intended to fit him for career as an astrol- oger, Brown is seen as 8 particularly clumsy bus boy in cafe where he has the good fortune, by counting the planets, to predict for gambler the outcome of race. Frightened, however, he drops from sight to work in a fortune-telling conces- sion.
 Finally located by the gambler, the three members of the partner ship-Brown the barker and a girl are all engaged by the sporting man as his private prognosticators of athletic events. A switch III horoscopes brings about tragic situation, and the closing moments of the picture find the agitated soothsayer in the act of trying to save himself from extermination at the hands of the middleweight champion of the world.
 The added attraction is Ready, Willing and Able" starring Ruby Keeler and Lee Dixon. This film is said to have a much more substan- tial and coherent story than most musical films have. It was adapted for the screen by Jerry Wald. Sig Herzig and Warren Duff, and IS one of the Warmers most preten- tious offerings for 1887.

Warner Brothers pay the wages ot 10.
 One Grand Salary
 In all, there are more than 100 well-known professional comics in pictures. They average more than 5000 week in salaries. The na- jority receive less, but the mean figure is boosted considerably by the huge incomes of such stars as Chaplin, Lloyd, Cantor, Joe E.. Brown, Edward Everett Horton, Jack Benny, Oakie, the Marxes, and the team of Burns and Allen.
 They bring Hollywood's funny bone bill to something like half a million dollars a month. Any thing for laugh!
 And many of the players who turned dramatic a few years ago are rejoining their comedy CO., workers: Gregory Ratoff, Adolphe Menjou, Reginald Owen, William Frawley, Lynne Overman, and Walter Catfett, to mention a few

FALLING GRAIN

Department of Agriculture Off
Gals today were watching closely
the fluctuating prices Of the grain
markets as a possible incentive for
rallying support to the Admins
tration's ever-normal granary legis-
lation.
The drop in grains yesterday is
expected to bring support from
the farm sections.
Administration leaders headed
by Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace have been trying unsuccess-
fully for five months to get farm
legislation on the move in Con-
gress. .......
Farmers Indifferent
Farmers failed to show any
great interest in legislation They
were too busy planting the biggest
wheat and corn acreage in years
anticipating q near-record harvest
at good prices.
Farm organization leaders met
here in February with Department
of Agriculture and AAA officials
and agreed on o program embody-
ing continuation of chief features
of the soil conservation program,
adding thereto crop insurance,
farm tenancy, and the ever-normal
granary, with marketing control OF
surplus products.
They failed to agree later, how
ever, when it came down to draw.
ing UP the actual legislation, and
their sessions broke up. Two
months ago the Agricultural De-
partment-AAA officials and the
American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton, headed by Edward A. O'Neil,
called another meeting and at
tempted to get the legislation go
ing. They failed.
Hopes Revived
With grain prices dropping,

wheat crop progresses into the
Northern States, hopes revived
that the farmers would show a
more decided interest and aid in
pushing the program through be-
fore Congress adjournS.
Unless the legislation is whipped
into shape in the next few days,
however, leaders in Congress ad.
mitted there was little hope OF
passage at this session.
If the program fails to reach a
decisive vote at the current Ses-
sion, hearings are expected to be
held during the recess so that
measures that will meet with more
general approval can be presented
at the next session.
