Chamberlain cabinet tonight, Lloyd
George clashed with the prime min
ister and said:
There is nothing that coulf
contribute more to victory in this
war than that the prime minister
should sacrifice the seals of Of

The opposition benches cheered
loudly
Parliamentary veterans described
Lloyd Georges speech as the most
devastating he had delivered in
the last Is years.
The ruddy-faced former premier
spoke with fierce intensity and
made sweeping gestures.
For three or four years every
thing that has been done has been
half hearted and ineffective with
out drive or intelligence, he said.
The prime minister met this
formidable foe (Hitler) in peace and
in war.
HE has always been Worsted. =

Movies Homstringing U. S.
TeIevision. RCA Charges )

WASHINGTON. May 8. CUP) -
The Radio Corporation of America
in brief to the federal communi-
cations commission, accused certain
motion picture interests today of
attempting to sabotage the develop
ment of television.
Such action has resulted. the
RCA alleged, from the practical if
not theoretical control" by Para
mount Pictures, Inc. over Du Pont
Laboratories, a televiSion manufac-
turer.
THE motion picture interests
which are financing Du Mont Lab
oratories have a much greater fin
ancial stake in the movie industry
Imperial Valley press., 1940-05-08

than they have in tcleviSion," it
said.
Their recent interest in televi-
sion is primarily for the purpose
of protecting their larger interest
in the movie and theater industry
and not to develop the new art of
televislon.
Therefore, they desire the adop-
ton of systems and methods that
would make televiSion inferior rath-
er than superior to motion pictures.
The particular complaint by RCA
was that Du Mont Laboratories pro-
posed transmission of Is frames

TECHNICOLOR FILM
AT THE MARYLAND
Twentieth Century Fox
Presents Lavish PrOduc-
ton First of Week

1t is not surprising that goth
Century-Fox studio has shot the
works" with lavish production
treatment of its new TechnicolOr
picture, THE Return of Frank
James," which opens at the Mary
land Theatre Monday for a full
week run. For last year, when
the same studio produced Jesse
James," the resulting audience en-
thusiasm demonstrated beyond
question that the colorful doings
of the bandit brothers made the
kind of movie material that draws
crowds
1t is fortunate for the producers
although it was not so lucky for
the forces of law and order in the
1SS0's-that there were two James
brothers, and that the adventures
of Frank continued in exciting
fashion after the sudden demise Of
Jesse. AS a result, two different
pictures Of equally high merit
could be based upon the James
saga.
The cast is headed by Henry
Fonda in the title role - a part
which he also played in Jesse
James" In the feminine lead is
lovely newcomer to the screen,
Gene Tierney, who earned fame
on the New York stage by her por-
trayal of a leading role in THE
Male Animal" Jackie Cooper.
Henry Hull, John Carradine, J. Ed
