Miss Winslow is said to have evolved
her own idiom Of the dance. combining
the precision of the ballet with the
dynamic force and power Of the mod
ern methods. Her accent is on the
more brilliant aspects of the art and
her method is that Of the classicist.
She has musical patterns, but does not
depend upon them wholly. She chooses
familiar music so that the eye and not
the ear Of her audience will be called
upon for concentrated attention.

the impression that the producers of
the Living Newspaper were feeling
their way toward a properly inte-
grated form for the expression of their
ideas. In One-third of the Nation they
have perfected their method and their
account of the problems of slum clear
ance is not only vital and graphic,
but strikingly dramatic.
The Living Newspaper makes no
pretense of being neutral in its at
titude toward social matters. 1t is
frankly and outspokenly Left Wing,
with a strong belief in government
ownership of utilities and Federal
participation in social services. In op-
position to the viewpoint of I'D rather
be right" it sneers contemptuously
at the idea OF balancing the national
budget. If the balancing is to be done
at the expense Of relief for the unem-
ployed and the clearance of slums,
But where the former productions
tended to make their point in great
part through the use of graphs and
diagrams. One-third of a Nation makes
its plea IN dramatic form. It really
is surprising to find how much infor-
nation and theatrical effectiveness 70
with the frank propaganda of the work
and how effectively abstract social
and economic subjects can be drama
tized by Arthur Aren't and his collabo-
rators. Aided by an impressive tene-
ment-house set. the brilliant work of
an oncoming scenic designer named
Howard Bay, the Living Newspaper
uses caricature. loudspeaker, lantern

sodes. scornful comedy and symbolic
interludes.
SPEAKING Of matters Of social con-
cern. wonder why the members
Of the Screen Actors Guild haven't
started picketing Walt Disney. What
is this profession of acting coming to,
anyway? As Edward G. Robinson
pointed out somewhere, the biggest
star or the radio is a wooden dummy
and the most popular performers in
motion pictures are little drawings of
dWarfs and animals. The first thing
the Hollywood actors know, the only
surviving place for acting will be the
theater. Possibly am exaggerating
just trifle, but certainly after seeing
Mr.. Disney's utterly enchanting Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs" at the
Radio City Music Hall, you cannot
help wondering why the film producers
should bother with so-called living"
actors. It comes as something Of
surprise to me. I have always con-
tended that, since the screen was a
cold and mechanical medium, it re-
quired the warmth of human person.
ality to give it the glow of life: that
while Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse
might be most soul-satisfy1ng in short
pictures. sex appeal and veteran char
acter actors were needed for the !ull-
length films. Now I must confess my
error. Mr.. Disney's drawn creations
are so much more delightful and rich
and heart-warming-in fact. so much
more deliciously human-than the
grease-paint screen actors that it is
the Robert Taylors, the Carole Lom-
bards and the Barbara Stanwycks who
seem the artificial, bloodless creations.

STEDNAN ESTATE RECEIVES PAYMENT.
 DAMAGES INCURRED 36 YEARS AGO.

The arrival of a check for s4000 and word of the possibility of more to come was received in a letter this week by H. D. Campbell, exec utor of the estate Of John ". Sted- man.
 The check marks the successful continuation of a long drawn out CT deavor for recovery of property damages which had many unusual features.
 At the turn of the century Tn Ketchikan, Stedman. a prominent citizen of the new town, joined a group to build a eannery south Of Ketchikan but nearer to Prince Ru- pert than Ketehikan.
 The company incorporated as the Wales Island Packing Company un- der the laws of the state of New York with capital stock at s100,- o0O Of which about S65,O00 was is sued in one hundred dollar shares. MT. Stedman bought 50 shares.
 Canadian Ownership
 When the affairs of the company were well under way, the Interna- tional Boundary Commission decided the cannery was in Canadian terri tory. Attempts at gaining restitu- ton from the United States govern ment were made at various times without success.
 Finally a bill introduced in Con- gress to reimburse the stockholders for their property rights forfeited when the land was awarded to Can ada was passed. The next move was to prove who owned the stock as all certificates issued had to be ac- counted for. IL seemed hopeless to Mir. Stedman for he had not kept his stock. He enlisted the aid in 1895 of L. B. Chisholm.

Stedman was in the hospital at Ketchikan not long before his death in March of last years.
 Charter Lost
 Restitution would have been made before this but after the bill had passed Congress it developed that there was no one in authority to re- ceive the money, as years ago the company's charter had become null

 Miss Bender departed on the AL aska Wednesday morning for Se- attle where she will enter the Un- iyersity of Washington for the special training course which is required of the Public Health nurses and as the Town of Wran- gell has expressed itself as being unable to cooperate for the pres ent with the Territory in the nurs- ing program, the Health Center will be closed, and no successor has been appointed to take Miss Ben der's place.
