The oyster stew illustrated on this page
is a dish to tickle Mr.. Montgomery's taste -
and anyone else's to whom the oyster season
spells delight.
after ALL" Mr.. Montgomery adds with
fash of his humor, when you talk to an actor
about food, you talk to a person who for years
had no choice, and who has been trained to
take his food as and when Ike finds it. can
make perfectly satisfactory lunch if you
give me a club sandwich and a glass of milk"
Though the days are long since over when
Mr.. Montgomery had mo choice" about
food, his tastes are still simple and he is con-
tented every morning with the same breakfast
of tea and toast and narmalade. He is neither
faddish nor pretentious about food or any
thing else. For physical recreation he likes
tennis and plays it all the year round. And
he finds mental recreation in what might
seem only another phase of work. In other
words, he thoroughly enjoys the plays and
books and scripts which, as he says, h4
reads all the time" He is also interested
in writing and particularly happy when he
can do part of the script for play he is
to act in. That is one reason he had 50 much
fun when he made the picture for that
inimitable movie, "Piccadilly Jim" = he
worked on the script.

TITS very disarming and pleasant expert
ence to meet Robert Montgomery in the

] already know him. He is no stranger to
you. You know the half -quizzical, half-ironical,
but never cynical twinkle of his eyes and the
curve of humor at the corners of his mouth.
He still wears them in private life 1t is as if
this popular star of the movies had stepped
straight out of the screen to talk to you in
person, and you were finding him the same
kind of generous. tolerant, quick -witted man
he has so often portrayed.

ing his farm at Pawling, New York, overrun
with curious intruders, as it used to be.
That farm is one of Mr.. Montgomerys
prides and pleasures. Every summer he and
his family come East for number of weeks.
Here he and his wife and the two children,
Betty and Robert, have plenty of country life
and country food. 1.-The food we get on the
farm is the best of all - our own vegetables
and fruit" Robert Montgomery puts it.
Here in the East" he continues, I'VE go
to the theater lot. That is partly why we
come East And so we do most of our enter
tanning at high tea before the theater. But we
always have tea, even when it isn't what
you'd call high At ordinary afternoon tea,
like bread-and- butter sandwiches and hard
boiled eggs.
Another thing like is to delve into the
refrigerator late at night. There is usually
cold chicken or cold turkey and roast beef to
make fine sandwich with. and milk to
drink with it.
Roast beef, turkey and chicken, hot or
cold, are Mr.. Montgomery's favorite meats.
And he likes meat pies. like the one we have
illustrated English steak and kidney pies
are also very good" he says. "And l like
German or, especially, Viennese food. There
is a cold bean salad from Vienna which is
delicious, and should like to call attention to
the delight of Wienerschnitzel and Dobos
Torte = two very different but equally fine
concoctions."
Wild duck with wild-rice stuffing is one
epicurean dish which Mr.. Montgomery in
cludes among his otherwise rather simple
culinary preferences.
But love sea food" he says. "Out West
we seldom have fish; but when we are East,
we get our fill of Holsters and clans and
oysters" There are simple yet varied recipes
for cooking these Montgomery favorites so
as to bring out the full favor.

phenomenally successful in comedy is un-
doubtedly his capacity for seeing the humor
of life. He sees how often all of us are comic in
our whims and foibles and small pretenses.
Doubtless, too, he is capable of laughing at
himself. But he never ridicules. His humor
partakes of kind of universal laughter, which
is sympathetic and utterly devoid of cruelty
or contempt. This gentleness of his toward
human weakness lends utter reality to his
portrayal of a totally different kind of role, =
that of Danny in might Must Fall" where
Mr.. Montgomery has proven himself forever
fine, perceptive actor in serious or tragic
drama.
Mr.. Montgomery does not stop short, when
you meet him, with being merely a person
you feel you know. He sets you at ease with
the tact of very great gentleman, and he
stimulates your mind with the mental re-
sources of man of intellect.
You are not surprised when he rebels
against living in what he calls goldfish
bowl. In other words, he does not enjoy hav-

Wolcott, Nov. 19-Pleading not guilty to a charge of automobile homicide, and then waiving exam ination on the charge, Milton W.

of Italy, Germany, Japan
 Are Apparent
BY MILTON BRONNER NEA Service European Manager


 London, November l9.-Germany, Italy and Japan have bound them selves into a pact whose ostensible purpose is to fight the spread of Communism, but which. is really just an alliance of gangster states out for loot and more power.
 Communism is a blessed cover for their designs. If there had been no Communism, they would have been constrained to invent 1t. No one of the three allies IS threatened by Communism.
 In Germany and Italy today aS declared Communist stands good chance of execution or of very long imprisonment. In Japan, not only Communism, but Socialism and even trades unionism have been kept down by the military clique.
 The new partnership of three powerfully armed states, in Whlcn the people have no voice in their destinies, has within it wide i'm" nlications which may affect the his- tory of the world for a good many years to come. A RoBBER ENTERPRISE
 1-LOoT. Japan's war upon | China without declaring war IS nothing but robber enterprise. The object is to gobble up the best parts of China, particularly those with great coal and iron deposits.
 Italy with her conquest of Etn1- opia is not a satisfied state. Sne want smore power in the Mediter- anean and means to get it--f pos sible.
 Germany is, of course, conduct- ing A humping campaign for the return of her former African col onies, particularly those England holds.
 TROUBLE IN BRAZIL
 0-INTERFERENCE in the aftaEs G of other states. The new allles loudly proclaim that the Boishe- viks are constantly stirring up trouble in other states. The Fas- cists have repeatedly siad Fasclsm wa snot an article for export. DO have the Nazis.
 But all over Europe, where there are Germans, there are Nazl nests and in many states laws have been passed to stop their machinations.
 Up to now the most glarlng example of interference IS III Spain where Italian and German volunteers" have largely won the victories for Franco, the reDel leader. ,o,,
 There is a danger that some day something of the sort may happen in Latin America. Then uncle Sam will sit up and take notlce' brushing the dust off the Monroe Doctrine. In the old kalseTlan days Germany always had covetous eye on the rich southern states of Brazil where thousanos of Germans were settled. Those Germans are still there and most of them are now Nazis. And no" Brazil has a dictator ana government leaning to Fasclsm. THREATS IN WARTIME
 o-THREAT to England ana D France and danger to Russia. The new alliance means that ui any war, Russia would be engaged to the Blask Sea.
 Japan covets Russian possessions which front on the Pacific. It loathes the idea of the Russians having in Vladivostok, a port whence submarines and airplanes could imperil Japanese fleets ana Japanese cities.
 The threat to France is no less real. It will be greater if the Fascists and the Nazis succeed ln
