ing Of Hall

Wilmington will share the dra-
matte spotlight with Manteo and
Fayetteville when repairs to Thalian
hal. are completed, according to a
promise made by Paul Green during
his visit here last week.
Professor Green, author of "The
Lost Colony" in Manteo and "The
Highland CalP' at Fayetteville, has
promised the Thalian association a
new play for the reopening of Thai
ian hall.
The dramatiSt, whose reputation
rests as much on Broadway hits and
moving pictures as on his historical
dramas, expressed himself as being
most enthusiastic about the old
theater, one Of the most beautiful,
he said, that he had seen.
In addition to new play, which
is to have the Lower Cape Fear as
a setting, Prof. Green also volun-
teered the use of large quantity
of stage lighting equipment, which
the theater badly needs.
Green highly commended the city
government for restoring the present
theater. 80 often" he said, "these
fine Old theaters have been wrecked,
and the new ones built in their
stead lack the beauty, the acoustics
and the comfort of the originals"
While here he made a trip to Or,
ton and sites TO many of the other
old Cape Fear plantations. He also
visited Southport and Smiths island

Build Cotton Empire
COTTON cultivation, pictured on
~ the Soviet Agricultural Fair
issue above, is one of Russia's
most important industries. Russia
now ranks fourth among the
worlds cotton producers, after
United States, British India and
China.
Cotton has been grown in cen
trail Asia for more than 1000
years, but it was not until the
American Civil War that large
scale production was developed.
Exports from southern United
States practically ceased, and
Russian conquests under the cars
opened up vast, productive areas.
Before the World War, Russia i'm
ported about one-fifth of the cot
ton her factories demanded.
Production fell off in the decade
following the revolution, but one
of the first aims of the U. S. S. r.
was to become independent of for
eign cotton. In 1880 cotton i'm
ports from United States ceased.
Today, the Soviet government
has introduced agricultural ma
chinery, controls cotton cultivation
through cooperative farms. Irri-
cation adds new land. Prices are
fixed and all cotton is purchased
by a cotton trust.
