auspices of the American Theater
Council. does not by any means intend
to confine its attentions to the Broad
way stage during the course OF its
sessions at the Hotel Astor here.
Heaven knows, New York situation
in the drama presents its share Of
problems. what with Hollywood and
one thing or another keeping the local
theater from its nghtful heritage Of
greatness and popular attention. But
the conferees wisely realize that the
American theater, If it is to be prop
erly healthy, must not be merely
an exotic growth that exists on Man
haitian Island, but must lead an active
life throughout the country. So when
they get together tomorrow they will
take up the matter OF the STUDY and
cooperation on the part Of all groups" :"
says the prospectus, "in order to pro-
vide the best possible conditions for
local resident acting companies and
for touring companies, and to stimu-
late the sending out Of many touring
companies without lowering the stand
ards of acting and production"
T AM inclined to be skeptic about
the value OF the national pas
sion for professional get-togethers,
since they have tendency to re-
suit in mere outpourings OF ora
tory, thus increasing the burdens Of
the already sorely tried air waves.
Fortunately. there is the prospect
that this will be something different.
Certainly the theater, which has
suffered cruelty from its insistence on
rugged individualisin. can do with a
little cooperative effort. and 1t only
can be hoped that the First National
Convention OF the Legitimate Theater
will reveal surprising willingness on
the part Of the theaters practitioners
TO work with one another in a msnful
effort to do away with some of the
amiable hit-or-miss chaos Of dramatic
production. II the coming convention
can achieve anything In the matter
OF bringing order out Of the COM
mercial dramas characteristic an
archy. it can take graceful bow for
a great and unexpected achievement.
1t is not mere politeness which causes
me to wish the conferees the best Of
luck and vast success.
THERE is no denying the truth OF
this contention, and it goes to
indicate the chief argument against
the institution Of theatrical censor
ship. 1t is all very we'll to say that
strip-tease shows should be done away
with and to drag out the ancient
bromide about the difference between
liberty and license. 1t happens, how
ever that censors never know when
to stop. They feed on power and, in
the very nature Of their business, grow
increasingly arrogant and puritanical
They begin by banning shows that are
frankly dubious in their appeal, and
thus they gain the support and ap-
proval of the professionally respecta BILE
without drawing down too much criti-
cism from the so-called liberals. Hav-
ing won such an opening success, they

achieved its aim as an original and
engaging comedy, scalloped around the
edges with gypsy voodoo and minor
melodrama.
DREDICTING the demise OF the
two-tone shadow drama is neither
bold nor difficult Job. 1t does
not even require the use Of that handy
crystal globe all drama Offices keep
on the desk to be used as an ash tray
on week days, as an inspiration for a
Sunday piece when the end OF the
week rolls around. Not only has the
song Of sweet praise for new techni-
color technique been an obvious swan
song for all other types Of films, but
the producers have heard gentle, well
come music at the box office and acted
accordingly. Samuel Goldwyn has
announced all his future productions
will be in color. Selznick- -Interna-
tional has adopted a similar policy.
The other studios must come around,
as surely as they knuckled under to
talking pictures decade ago
The Transformation will be be in
Simultaneous. Nothing that gives the
producers q pain where their bank
rolls are ever can happen very
rapidly in Hollywood. There will be
pains aplenty in this period OF tran
sition. Studios that have labored like
mad to teach some OF their expensive
stars to talk like human beings, more
or less. will now have to make them
look that way. The color camera is

On the day two major technicolor

Gently, we heard a distinct, doleful
sound, as of brass bands warming up
for the Chopin funeral march. There
was no mistaking that. The guess
work comes in when we lapse into
interpretations. Our deduction was,
and is, that the trombones and the
trumpets were preparing to blast the
long sour at obsequies shortly to be
in order for black-and-white films.
(You remember those great Ameri-

The black-and-Whit are not dead

both departures from the former
technique Of color cinemas, both
destined some day to be regarded as
pioneers in the simultaneous applica-
ton Of realism and color to screen

photography concentrated chiefly upon
the display Of such incredibly vivid
costumes and persons as We saw in
Becky Sharp" or a droll panorama
of multi-hued boredom such as The
Garden of Allah"
These newcomers, on the contrary,
were honest, vital, alive. They can
not be described as realistic in the too
exact meaning Of that word. for "A
Star Is Born" had its setting in Holly
wood, weird spot at best. and Wings
of the Morning" was about gypsies,
the Irish hunting country and the
English Derby, all fantastically color
full subjects. The approach to both
stories, however, was fresh, earthly,
salty. They were treated as personal
dramas, not as pageants, and "A Star

dn the early part Of the story as
in what she neglected to wear when
once she bathed behind bushes for
Cecil B. De Mile. In her latest
picture, Il Met Him in Paris" she's
all bundled up like a first baby on
its first Winter ride in the family
car. In other words, approximately
smothered.
However, like Miss Dietrich, Claud-
cite loves that sort of thing now.
Almost before the publicity depart
ment can get the cover off the type
writer, she is willing to say:
No more provocative revelations.
The Hays edict against that sort of
thing is big boon to us. Hollywood
has gotten (see Woolley, page Claud-
ette) very staid and reserved 1t
thrills you, chills you, entertains you
with songs and dance but no longer
does it even suggest baWdiness. The
stage now takes bow for this sort
of thing"
She did not add, but she might have,
that right in the middle of the bow,
Hollywood took Gypsy Rose from the
stage and converted her into q
madonna or something.
There are quiet few others in
Hollywood who feel the same way
about it, but what they say about it
repeats substantially the above. And
what long way we've come already
since leaving Gypsy Rose!
IN THE making of a great picture
or a great play, one must start
with great story. If that is not
a rule. it is about as close to one
as you can get in the vagrant, unreal
world of the theater The diverse
Of it, Of course, does not follow nat
urally. Some pictures and plays
based upon great stories have turned
out to be super-hops.
All of which leads to one more
comment on Lost Horizon" which
enters it's second week at the National
Theater today. Columbia Pictures
made fine, engrossing photoplay of
this novel of James Hilton's. If it
misses grea atness, and it is our opinion
that it does, for all its excellence,
the producer has the argument that
it was not great story.
1t was beSt-seller, to be sure, but
so (Sometimes) are the compositions
of Tiffany Thayer. Moreover, it was
captivating tale, neatly wrought,
and timed perfectly if unconsciously
on the part of Hilton. Lost Horizon"
bowed into the world at a moment
when most of the literate population
was sorely in need of an escape
philosophy. Once we'll launched, it
could scarcely have failed to be a
best-seller.
Columbia showed wisdom in buying
the picture rights. 1t proceeded with
impressive intelligence and skill to
translate it into celluloid. It's ex-
penditure of s2,O0o,OOO on the venture
was the more gallant in view of the
fragile quality Of the story. Not for
less, perhaps, could it have done so
we'll in capturing the tenuous qualities
of fantasy with such commendable
results.

Reasonable.

WARD BOND, who plays featured
role in Samuel Goldwyn S
Dead End" claims he has the most
reasonable wife in the world. On
this he bases his claim:
A few weeks ago Bond went to
San Francisco to see Director John
Ford depart for Honolulu on the
China Clipper" At the last minute,
Ford found a seat for Bond on the
plane.
Il forgot to call my wife and tell
her was going" Bond says. II

Fox transformed glamorous Gypsy
Rose into plain Louise Hovick. Then,
having made her sound more like a
matted milk advertisement than good
box Office, it announced that Gypsy
Rose was hired for quite a different
purpose than you were thinking She
might play adventures roles, or she
might even be madonna some day,
but she will neither strip nor tease
Where Twentieth Century-Fox was

That was the sole difference between

Two FARM PRICE
RECORDS ARE SET
January Is Level Is Peak for Six
Years-131 Per Cent Of
pre-War Period.

BY the Associated Press.
Soaring prices Of farm products
chalked up two records yesterday ct
the Agriculture Department.
Omcials said the general level Of
farm prices on January Is was the
highest in six years-since June 1880.
It added the level Of prices paid to
farmers was above the level Of prices
paid by farmers for the first time in
more than 10 years.
The Bureau Of Agriculture Eco
nomics said farm prices on January
IS were 131 per cent Of the average
for the pre-war period of 1909-19l4.
This was five points higher than .
month earlier and a. points above
January, 1896.
Things the farmer buys remained
at l2S per cent of pre-war levels. so
the ratio of prices received to prices
paid was 1o2.
Price parity was reached and .
2-point advantage recorded for the
first time since August, 1926" the bu-
reau said.
The price climbs extended to nearly
all farm products, with grains and
