EPOCHAL FILM, LOST HORIzON,'
 OPENS TONIGHT
R ol a nd Coleman Stars in Picture at Capitol
 Theatre

Unchallenged as masterpiece in motion picture production, Colum- bias Frank Capra production ot Lost Horizon" makes its long, awaited bow at popular prices fol- lowing it's sensational nationwide roadshow tour, opening tonight for a four day engagement at the Capitol Theatre.
 Starring Ronald Colman, and fea- turing Edward Everett Horton, H. B Warner, Jane Wyatt, Margo, John Howard, Thomas Mitchell, Isabel Jewell, Sam Jaffe in the much dis cussed High Lama role, the picture is an adapta tion by Robert Riskin of James Hilton's celebra ted novel of the same name.
 Briefly, the story of Lost Hori- zon" concerns five persons who are kidnapped in an airplane in China, and flown deep into the heart of 1 Forbidden Tibet. Picked up by a caravan headed by a mystic and i elderly Chinese, they are escorted l to what is perhaps the most unusu- al place on the face of the earth l the lamasery of Shangri-La.
 Here, closeted securely by moun- tain impenetrable to the uniniti- ated, is a setting of indescribable beauty and serenity, peopled by members of the strangest cult of modern times. Romance and ad- venture fall to the bewildered kid- nap victims, and soon, all but one surrender to the utter contentment and rare loveliness that is Shangri- I La.
 On the technical side, there are Frank Capra and Robert Riskin director and writer of such prize winning films as MT Deeds Goes to Town," Ut Happened one Night" and Lady for a Day; James Hilton, author of the origi- nal novel, who also wrote Goodbye MT. Chips;" Joseph Walker, noted photographer of Capra's greatest successes; Harrison Forman, Ameri- can explorer and author, who acted 1 as adviser on the Tibetan phases oi the film; and Dimitri Tiomkin, in- ternationally known composer, who wrote the musical score.

Although the Bronx accent is q
long way from home III the heart
of the New Jersey potato belt, the
200 families Of New York garment
workers who are now "resettled" at
Jersey Homesteads seem to be thriv-
ing in their newly town.
OF all the many resettlement
projects of the Farm Security Ad-
ministration, perhaps there Is none
which holds a greater social signifi-
canoe than the one at Jersey Home
steads, for here, besides 4 farming
and subsistence program, there is
also a sustaining industrial enter
prise in the nature of a garment
factory.
Jersey Homesteads is the official
name OF a 1,279-acre tract acquired
by the Resettlement Administration
from the Division of Subsistence
Homesteads Of the Interior Depart
ment, and now under the control
OF the Farm Security Administra-
ton IF. S. AZ, which is under the
Department of Agriculture. This
tract Is situated about 20 miles east
and slightly north of Trenton, N. j.,
and some 4 miles from Hightstown
in the rich Monmouth County DO
tato region.
Under the plan as worked out
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1938-11-06

to create this town, about 200 living
units one story In height were
erected to accommodate q like num-
Der of families. A garment factory
for the manufacture of women's
clothes was built for the purpose of
being the economic mainstay Of the
project.
The "resettlers" for this New Jer-
sey project were limited to those
Of Jewish extraction and chiefly
those who were skilled in some
phase Of making women's clothes.
Moreover, each family admitted had
to put up $500 into q revolving
fund for the factory. This provided
the necessary capital for the factory
to get under way.
1t was rocky road to Dublin
Cor should We say UtopiaD for the
sponsors Of this colony from the
first. Uncertainty as to the type
Of dwellings to erect for the re-
settlers, and resulting delay In con-
struction added to the cost. Several
times additional grants of money
had to be obtained from the Fed
eraF Government. The erection Of
a good-sized modern garment fac
tory, a splendid school building, q
sewage disposal plant and street
system further hiked up the original
estimates.
