THERE is considerable speculation
over the future of Marlene Diet
rich. While nothing ofhcial has ever
been given out, it is pretty definite that
she will not return to Paramount to
make French Without Tears" or any
other OF the several pictures the stu
dio has announced for her. One of
the most highly paid stars in the in
dustry, her box office power is not re-
garded as commensurate with her
wages; she receives a reputed $50, 900
q picture. Out of the Paramount fold,
there Is talk that she may join the
Twentieth Century-F'ox forces. Josef
Won Sternberg wants her for several
English pictures. the first OF which
will be Emile zola's "Germinal" Latest
offer came from Maurice de Kobra,
who cabled Miss Dietrich that be
would pay her 100000 to make an
English and French version of Ma
donna Of the Sleeping Cars" in Paris
Because Of the salary this was turned
down with alacrity.
- Stars are always the last to know
OF their status with the public. Ordi-
narily on the way up knowledge Of
their box ONCE appeal Is kept from
them as long as possible by produc-
ers. In this day in which agents vir-
tuAlly run the industry it is not an
easy matter to keep them in ignorance.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Dec. 19-If political
and labor elements do not constitute
themselves a factor of major uncer-
tainty in 1899, an increase of at
least so per cent in automobile sales
may be reasonably anticipated, ac-
cordlng to the Sextant, a survey
edited and published by Augustus
Slater and distributed through the
stock exchange firm of Mervin Ash
& Co. "On this basis" the survey
states, total output could amount
to around 100000 units, a level
somewhat lower than the industry
enjoyed in 1885"
The survey points to three other
distinct influences which, it states,
act directly and indirectly as an
impetus to automobile sales. These
are Cd the carryover of neW-car re-
placement demand deferred during
1888, t2) the large proportion of cars
now in use approaching the end of
their physical life. and 80 broad
ening of the potential automobile
market by virtue of greater pur-
chasing power of industrial workers
Due to restricted sales during the
depression. the majority of automo-
blles are either very old or very new"
it is stated. Attention is called to
the very substantial increase during
the past several years of cars and
trucks over 6 years old represent
ing principally the 1929-3l models
which are still in use
Since the estimated average life
of automobiles is 8ia years. most of
