is that in the 23-year-old Brady
Washington has its most promising
playwright (unless some brilliant
genius is hiding out on this depart
ment). It Is the weakness of i'm
maturity, however, that at present
he is better qualified to make music
than to make sound social criticism
out of his drama of capital VS.. labor.
(The same charge, brought regu-
larly against Maxwell Anderson,
may indicate q critical intolerance
OF the poets disposition to become
entangled with today's too real
realities) With the elimination of
structural defects, however, the
music of the play might become one
with its message instead Of obscur-
ing it at important intervals.
Further revelation of acting tai
ent among the c. U. group is one
of the incidental important accom-
plishments of "Calidore." In the
role of the inhuman industrialist,
incidentally the most sharply drawn
Of Brady's characters, James Towey
gives convincing performance, and
so does Mimi Norton as the bitter,
young-old orphaned daughter of a
martyred idealist to the labor cause.
In the difficult part of the idealistic,
bewildered Calidore Alfred Siga-
foose is more effective In his intima-
tions of the character than in re-
membering many of It's speeches,
although it is neatly polished job
he does In Brady's best writing
moment at the end Of the second
act.
Players in lesser parts who do
credit to their aspirations are Isabel
Molloy, possessed Of one of the best
stage voices we've listened to in
long time; William Leggate as the
artist who finds a sardonic gayety
in disillusionment, Victor Orsinger
as laborer in a comedy interlude
and James Graham as the tycoon,s
stooge.
"Calidore," revised, will be visible
again during the schools winter
season.

a sweepstakes winner, who, Incl
dentally, have turned in some of
the movie public's most preferred
comedy performances.
Elimination of the professional
player was one of Director Louis de
Rochemont's carefully taken steps in
the interest of authenticity. When
he wanted a type representative of
some occupational or social group,
he drew directly from the group. To
a man, woman and child, his play
ers have lived the roles they in
terpret in "The. Ramparts We
Watch" For example, his Hun
garian housewife, is a Hungarian
housewife, citizen of New Lon
don, Conn, the town carefully Sc
lected as typical of the American
community life which the film is
supposed to show. His clergyman
Is real clergyman and his German
professor is doctor and medical
research scientist in real life.
While casting his picture with
professionals in the interest Of
realism, de Rochemont disavows
the designation documentary" for
his unusual feature. Moreover, de-
spite the implications of the title
and the content of the book from
which it was taken, the film is only
concerned in passing with the Ma
tion's preparedness program as it
relates to military and naval re-
quirements.
It's intent, rather, is to show the
attitude of the average American
when confronted by the threat of
war. To accomplish this purpose,
1t was decided to recreate with the
ultimately possible fidelity the rou-
tine of life in a typical American
community in the war years, 1914
1918.
In addition to departing from the
conventional formula as to cast and
story, producers of The Ramparts"
as the trade already is calling it
familiarly, sought to avoid camera
tricks. The production staff, in
deed, is quite proud of this quality
OF It's work, IN which, OF course,
1t adheres to the technique of the
March of Time (Mr. de Roche
mont's regular work. which also
scorns trickery in camera use.

Hungary Curbed in Fear
OF Reds, Italians Say
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROME, July 11.-Italian Foreign
Minister Count Ciano's Leghorn
newspaper II TELEGRAPH indicated to-
day, as he returned from important
conferences in Germany, that Ger
many and Italy had prevailed on
Hungary to stay out of Rumania
in order to avert a war in the Bal
kans, which II TELEGRAPH said might
bring invasion by non Balkan
powers"
Russia is considered In Rome to
be the only "non-Balkan power"
likely to try to expand in that
zone.
Hungary's representatives were
swung to holding off on their claims
upon Rumania's district of Transyl-
vanla at yesterdays meeting at
Munich. Count Ciano returned to
report to Premier Mussolini on this
meeting as well as upon his con-
ference with Fuehrer Hitler last
Sunday.
Editor Giovanni Ansaldo. Count
Cianos mouthpiece, said Hitler and
Count Ciano had assured Hungary's
Premier, Count Paul Teleky, and
Foreign Minister Count Stefan
Csaky, that "the present Balkan
status quo will not be disturbed by
any one"

the question today as delegates be-
gan arriving for the Democratic
National Convention.
Just to start the ball rolling, Mrs.
Conkey. who is official convention
hostess, Cook County commissioner
and a political worker of 20 years
experience, said:
II would like to see Mrs. Mary T.
Norton, Representative from New
Jersey, Vice President.
Would Save Mrs. Roosevelt.
"Of course, there is Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt-but we should save
her for the presidency later.
Il think there should be a woman
Vice President first before there Is
an attempt to elect a woman Presi-
dent. And I don't see any reason

rights and when it Is convenient we
will provide for them in the general
framework of the new European ad-
justment."
He said "the more ardent poll
ticians" in Hungary were pressing
for the occupation of World War lost
Pennsylvania after Russia took
Bessarabia and Northern Bucovina
from Rumania.
Ansaldo said axis objections to a
Hungarian move were two-fold:
First. a Balkan upset would dis
turb the output of a vast farming
region, thereby depriving Germany
and Italy of food;
Second, "a Balkan conflict might
give non-Balkan powers an oppor-
tunity to extend their influence or,
even worse, their territorial pos
sessions in the peninsula, which
must not come about"

why a woman right now could not
try for the vice presidency"
In Mrs. Conkey's opinion women
shouldn't sit back and wait for that
right time" for a woman to come
out for Vice President. Now, when
the slate is anybody's guess, is as
good a time as any, she said.
Even If woman failed to get the
nomination at this convention, she
continued, "the first step would have
been taken-and then it would be
a case of try and try again until sue
cessful."
