 STARS RUSSELL,
 BRUCE, AHERNE
Capitol Showing Hired Wife, Robert BenehIey
 Has Prominent Part

Three of Hollywood's leading per sonalities, Rosalind Russell, Brian Aherne and Virginia Bruce, have the starring roles in Universals Hired Wife, which comes to the Capitol Theatre tonight and to- morrow.
 Miss Russell, who has become very well known as comedienne in such pictures as The Women and His Girl Friday" again is brought to the screen in this type Of characterization. Incidentally, she says it's the sort of acting she prefers.
 Ahern's role, on the other hand, is declared to be a distinct depar- ture from the serious characters he played in Vigil in the Night and My Son, My Sonl'
 In direct contrast to her co-stars Miss Bruce has one of the few straight roles in the entire pie ture.
 Additional comedy, it is an- nounced, is dishod up by Robert Benchley, the only man in Holly wood who can claim to be profici- ent as au author, actor, play wright, columnist, critic and com mentator
 An added combination of TO- nance and comedy is delivered by the young and dashing John Car roll, who further complicates the intrigue already surrounding the three stars.
 Supporting the above members of the cast are many featured players including Hobart Cavan- augh, William Davidson, Richarc Lane and Charles Smith. The pic ture was produced and directed by William Setter, who garnered con siderable praise recently for hi; direction of Deanna Durbin in Its Date" Glenn Tryon was asso- ciate producer.

She had an offer-connected with movies but not on the inside-of a $100- week job. She turned it down for the SIS. Inside, she figures she can work back to her old spot, and even beyond.

By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK-If the real story of night clubs in New York could ever be pieced together it would make one of the daffiest chapters in the history of nocturnal enter tainment.
 But an accurate detailed study of the night clubs as they were during prohibition seems out of the question. One would have to have access not only to secret files Of the police but also the confi- dence of countless gangsters who now lie in unremembered graves. The mob didn't put its transactions into writing in those days. It paid off in cash-and in lead.
 You would have to have an un- derstanding of the whole complex machinery of the underworld dur ing those years to appreciate how there could have been tens of thousands Of night clubs, or speak easies, in New York at one time.
 Liquid Profits os
 This number seems incredible, yet 1t is said on good authority that when repeal came there were 32000 speakeasies operating in the metropolitan district. Most of these were picayune affairs small, dingy rooms in cellars, behind garages, with false fronts, and back of gro- cery stores. But some of them oper- ated openly and brazenly all over town-on Broadway, on Park Ave nue, everywhere. k
 The entertainment, except for
 inaivi6ual stars, did not ap-
 preach in quality the floor
 shows of today, but that was
 because the operators weren't
 interested in hiring scenic de-
 signers and competent directors
 from the Broadway theater.

 alitics and surrounded them
 with choruses of undressed
 girls.
 The mob was in too much of a hurry to make money to bother with timing and rehearsals. The entertainment never was much of a drawing card anyway. It was the' liquor, not the food or the show, that paid the freight.

 Tt was nothing for one of the money boys to spend $500. Get ting rid of big dough was their stock in trade. They would put a $500 note on the table and say, Tony, I want to run through this They couldn't eat that much or drink that much, so they bought champagne for everybody in the house. They didn't care who you were. If you were there, you got bottle of $25 champagne. That same champagne today costs you between $1O and $14.
 That's enc of the difference
 es between night clubs then
 and now-prices. You don't have
 to spend money now, except
 minimum charge. But you had
 to then. They would throw you
 out if you didn't. Larry Fay
 wouldn't even speak to GUS
 toner who spent less than $20O.
 Night clubs today are here to make money, too, though the na- ture of the entertainment ire quently spells the difference be- tween success and failure. Re- lieved of the necessity of ducking behind closed doors, people shop leisurely and casually for their entertainment today.

Then there was that successful writer who yearned to direct. He was selling scripts whenever he wanted to, but he had an idea that the man to direct story was the man who had written it.
 So one fine day he paid for the privilege of making picture. Not in cash, but by giving away a story.
 And so was born Preston Sturges, director, and "The Great McGinty" and the other hits that have follow ed it.

Southern Costa Rica. Their descrip-
tions of the jungle, the rivers and
the mountains are most graphic.
These people, like all others who
have tried the Pan-American high
way route, admit on questioning
that they have shipped their car
around the most difficult spots. We
only mention it because so many
times reports say simply that a car
"has come through from South
America" and it is supposed the
trip has been made all the way by
land. So far that feat has yet to
be accomplished, even from the
Panama Canal to the United States.
We still intend to try covering that
entire distance. But reports look
bad. A letter received today from
E. w. James, chief, public roads di-
vision, Washington, summarizes
everything. After discussing one
of our proposed trails, he adds: Il
have no expectation that you can
get through on this line. but I be-
lieVe 1t is the most promising if you
seriously intend to attempt crossing
Southern Costa Rica. I, believe it
is entirely impossible for you to ne
gotiate a high line in the noun
tains beyond San Marcos"

times we've passed through cuts 10
to 80 feet deep, and barely wide
enough for the car to pass. These
have been made entirely by bull
carts travelling year after year in
the same ruts. When centers get
so high the carts scrape, natives
level things of bit and start cut
ting ruts all over again. Dust gets
to 6 inches deep and when rains
come it washes down into gully
stream beds, and the cut is clean fol
next years cart traffic.
From Chinandega to Managua is
even worse than from the border
to this stretch. We spent two hours
in one rut after having caved down
from the top in trying to straddle
it with one side on the high center.
The ground was soft and poWdery,
so the rear wheels buried them
selves as they spun. We finally got
out our new ratchet pulley, anchored
to a tree and dragged the car
forward half an irch at a time
until it was up onto solid ground.
Night had settled when we got out.
We drove into natives front yard,
begged permission to stay under
his trees for the night, dipped water
from his 50-foot well to pour over

Nicaragua Plans Road.
Nicaragua has just negotiated a
100000 loan from the Export
Import Bank of the United States
for the construction of roads and
continuation of the an-American
highway President Somoza is anx-
ious for completion of the Pan-Amer-
lean highway through Nicaragua, but
says he doesn't want to borrow more
at one time than his country can
pay back as it falls due. He wants
the United States to know that
when a loan is made to Nicaragua
the investment is safe He believes
that in three years his section of
the american highway will be
completed, and he proffered us ad-
vance invitation to return then and
note the difference from our present
struggle with Nicaraguan bull cart
trails We accept with alacrity.
Last year Mr.. SomoZa was a guest
at the White House. He can't say
enough now about President Roose-
velt's treatment of him, and of the
confidence Americas Chief Execu-
tive expressed in the future of Mica
ragua. To the general, President
Roosevelt is great friend" a
father" to Nicaragua. A man who
is doing much that Central America
can be kept safe from European
design and chicanery." The Presi-
dent smiled when he looked at our

L. Corrin Strong, president of the

sociation, said today the orchestra
still hopes sufficient funds can be

at the Potomac Water Gate this

There have been rumors," he said,
that the National Symphony Or

Gate series this coming summer. At
the moment we have not the funds
in hand for such a series, but we
have not give up hope that such
funds will be forthcoming by the
time necessary. In the meantime
we are going ahead with our plans
as in previous years"
The sustaining fund campaign
conducted by the association during
the winter raised approximately
$105,000, but at least $4,000 addi-
tional will be necessary to cover the
cost of the summer concerts, Mr.
