Carole Lombard earned more than
Clark Gable in 1887. Clark is the
bigger draw. but Carole was in the
happy position of being lent to
David Selznick at the rate of $780,

why Carole received $3l4000 and
Clark $289,0O0. Both were def

Adolphe Menjou is another free
lancer who rarely does wrong to
his producers or to his choice OF

failed to ring the bell only once
with Goodwin Follies." But he
made up for it with stage Door.
Adolphe netted 5000 ,083-and was
worth every cent.

nothing. ARTISTS nave always been
overwhelmed by huge contemporary
tragedies, and the tragedy of "The
Mother" is the greatest of our time.
What, the play asks, is worth killing
for and being killed for? What
political thought or event, what ar
rangement of government or science
is worth a mans life? From there.
meaning the beginning of the first
act, it goes no further. 1t just goes
whimpering and moaning and
screaming on through the remaining
two and one-half acts. And, of
course, it cannot go further. No
proper, convincing answer to such
questions can be expected from an
artist. Religion. politics, science, all
have answers in which man can
believe. But the artist, being un-
convinced, can only be uncon-
vincing
And it is understandable that the
play should say nothing, because the
man who wrote it was not only an
artist, but also a liberal. He had a
free, lnQuiring mind. seeing the
wrong in every right, the right in
every wrong, believing in everything
as much as in nothing and believing
most of all that nothing is or ever
will be or even can be as it should
be.
Liberals are uSefully uncomfort-
able on certain occasions, critics at
heart, carping at the inactive for
not acting, and, when they them
selves have to act, when the fact OF
disaster enters their own lives and
they have to decide once and for
always what is to be done now
then, all cluttered with background
and thought and frames of refer
ence, they rush wildly into such
hopeless confusion as The Mother. y
Germany was the disaster that
entered Capek's life. In the sum-
mer of 1898, his last on earth
Capek's home on the outskirts OF
Prague became a meeting place for
men of intellect in Europe, liberals
fluttering back and forth over the
haunted landscape, stopping of to
talk. Talk, talk, talk, on day-and-
Evening star., 1939-04-30

night basis, on a three-shift basis.
Capek ran the only 24-hour-a day
salon on record. The talk was hot
and agitated. and 1t came from
people who knew too much, while
people who knew nothing except
what they wanted stood growing on
frontiers.
All the old, exhausted-looking
ideas were threshed out once more.
They were banged out urgently on
the mahogany coffee tables in the
Capek living room. and now they're
in the play, older, even more ex-
hausted looking.
The scheme of the play involves
mother, husband and their five
sons The father died a hero's death
-heroism, you know or have heard,
is fear of cowardice, is distaste for
the unconventional-on behalf of
the imperialistic ambitions Of his
country. Andrew died of disease
and for medical science. George
dies in the interests of aviation.
Peter dies for the Red cause. his
twin brother for a Fascist cause.
And Tony, the poet, goes off at the
end-sent by his mother-to die
defending the frontiers Of his coun-
try from aggression.
AS these people die they come
back to the living room and try to
explain and justify their own ends
and urge their brothers on to SIM
liar ends. In the lobby on the first
night folks seemed to think the
sight of these full-bodied ghosts
little trying. But I did not find 1t
hard to believe in this invention for
dramatizing thoughts and giving
body to an argument going on in a
single persons mind. AS matter of
fact. thought this invention-used
previously this season by Elmer Rice
in American Landscape"-highly
more desirable than the masks and
asides controved by Eugene ONeill.
The objection was not to the
ghosts. but to what they said.
Ghosts have less right to stale
thoughts than the living. What these
ghosts said made the play seem quite
dead. They restrict the enthusiastic
audiences for the play to psyche
analysts who want an X-ray photo
graph of liberal mind muddled by
| terror.
Some Assorted Musicals
Arrive on Broadway.
Pins and Needles"-the revue by
and of the International Ladies
Garment Workers Union-is out IN
a new edition after walloping big
year with the old one. Six new,
wonderfully hilarious numbers, plus
the best Of the old ones. and the
cast is an amalgam of the best fea-
lures of the three companies that
played the show in different parts
of the country last year. Which
means that once again Pins and
Needles" is quite the best new mu-
sical revue in town.
"Mexicana"-a musical revue pre-
sented by the Republic of Mexico and
offering a kind of summary of the
visual entertainment that exists be-
low the Rio Grande What's good Is
very, very good, and what's bad is
horrid. The show doesn't have
enough of the Broadway pace to
race you past the bad numbers.
"Sing for Your Supper"-the w.
P. A. musical that rehearsed for
more than a year and was investi-
gated by a congressional committee.
It lacks this and lacks that-chiefly
principals and intellectual vigor-
but what it has Is youthful, talented
vigor blended into production num-
bers that carry you right through
the evening.
