Plan To Plant Within
AcreagesRe

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-R-
Apparently needing official warn
ings against stepping up produc-
ton in anticipation of greater war
markets, American farmers plan
to plant pretty well within acre
ages recommended by the agri-
cultural adjustment administration
this season.
A survey indicated, the agricul-
ture department said today, that
farmers would plant q per cent
less tobacco, four per cent less
corn, five per cent less peanuts
and cowpeas, two per cent less
sweet potatoes, and virtually the
same acreage of wheat as in the
1889 season. The survey did not in
clude cotton.
AAA officials obviously were
pleased with the report. They
have warned farmers against put
ting more land into major crops
in the hope that export markets
might be enlarged as a result of

Gals say, that the conflict had
tended to slow down the export

"SHOP AROUND THE CORNER
IS FEATURED AT CAROLINA

Ernst Lubitsch has come up with
another and most agreeable surprise.
For the director who made Great
Carlo and the nation laugh with
"Ninotchka," has brought James
Stewart and Margaret SULLIVAN to
the ere in a motion picture as hui
manly realistic and ~charmingly
amusing as the daily doings at the
neighborhood grocery store. It is
THE Shop Around the Corner"
which opened yesterday at the Caro-
lima theatre for an engagement of
three days.
In the colorful setting Of a street
in Budapest and a little leather
goods and novelty shop, Lubitsch
tells the interrelated stories of the
store owner and his clerks as they
go about their everyday tasks, re-
vealing with both gentle humor and
pathos their romances, tragedies and
the laughter in their lives. He has
done it with that famed "Lubitsch
touch" which can entertainment

movement of agricultural products,
with the possible exception of cot
ton.
The report indicated that many
producers, in order to comply with
AAA programs and thereby become
eligible for benefit payments, would
shift from the i-lajor surplus crops
to soy beans, hay, pasture, oats
and beans.
The aggregate acreage for all
crops is likely, the department said,
to be not greatly different from
that of last year.
An indicated spring wheat acre
age of 9,425, 900, compared with
1852, 900 last year, would bring
the total wheat seeded area to
64,439, 900 acres, including the As
$4,000 reported put to winter
wheat last fall.
The AAA's 1910 wheat planting
allotment was 1000, 900 acres.
However, drought conditions in the
Great Plains area during the past
fall and winter have led to esti-
mates that possibly a third of the
winter wheat acreage may be
abandoned.

1.-THE KID FROM KOKOMO"
is OFFERED AT THE BlJOU

; Working on the principle that a
healthy dose of laughter is the best
prescription fer a worried world,
.The Kid From Kokomo," the new
warner Bros. production which
"opens today at the Bijou theatre, is
comedy from start to finish. A full
some guarantee that this is SO can
be had from scanning the list of
players and the roles which they
.play. -
Pat O'Br1en, is a fight manager
and the type of lovable crook that
frequently doublecrosses himself.
Joan Blcndell is his sweetheart, an
.ex-bubble dancer whose bubble has
burst, and their white hope is Wayne
Morris, a husky young blacksmith
whom they decide to groom Tor
heavyweight champion. Morris, how
sver, has a one-track mind, which
IS set on finding the mother who
eft him on a handy doorstep when
he was an infant. To keep him
happy, they find him a mother" in
the person of a sodden old klepto-
maniac, a role that is played to per-
lection by May Robson. Other con-
.ributors to the fun are Make Rosen-
bloom, as the heavyweight champ,
Jane Wyman as the curvacious
blonde with whom Wayne falls in
love, Stanley Fields, Sidney Toler,
Ed Brophy and a score of others,
playing shady characters with en-
phasis decidedly on the comic side.
The program also includes a Fed
eral Housing Special and a comedy
Snow Follies."

Movie Revues
"a CHILD IS BORN
is FEATURED AT ROYAL

To steve Trilling, casting director
at the Warner Bros. Studio, went
the task of providing a family OF SIX
for Spring Byington and Hobart
Cavanaugh to be mother and father
in "a Child is Born" the Warner
Bros. picture now playing at the
Royal theatre.
The family couldn't just be any
assortment of attractive movie chill
dren. They had to range in age from
about two to seven. And they had
to resemble both Spring and her
cinema husband, Hobart.
Trilling spent weeks in his hunt
for the youngsters and was justly
proud of his success. They reported
at the studio where they were to
troop, with their mild-mannered and
somewhat h~en-pecked father, into
the maternity ward of a hospital to
see their mother, who had recently
had another visit from the stork.
