Bureau Submits
Amendment 10
Ease Parking
kThe Detroit Bureau Of Govern

The Detroit Bureau Of Govern
q entail Research suggested today
that the motorists of Detroit may
be able TO find some relief from
their parking worries through. APP
proval of a charter amendment to
permit municipal parking lots.
Charter amendment "A on the
Spring ballots next Monday would
give the city the authority 10 set
IN large lots on the edge -ntthe-
loop district TO be connected with
the shopping district by feeder
buses.
The campaign for municipal lots
eliminates a long futile drive by
the police department to curb car
stealing, accid dents and petty
thievery which have been con-
nected with the operation Of pri-
waite lots.
NEW WEAPON
The Bureau of Governmental
Research suggests the value of the
plan in this statement,
This Is a permissive charter
amendment 10 allow the city to
operate lots 'on public utility
basis which means that no part
OF the cost can come from taxes.
1.-THE city has tried To control
parking lots by police regulation.
This amendment would give n
new weapon-competition with
city operated lots"
J. M. Leonard, assistant director
of the bureau, pointed out that
city operation of lots has proven
successful in Kalamazoo as well as
In many cities outside Michigan.
PRIVATE LOTS FAIL
The municipal parking lot
plan may be n logical and pro-
eressive step toward securing
on-street parking facilities for
the entire city, which long has
been the aim OF most city plan
Leonard stated
Private lots have failed to do
This Job completely.
II do not know Of any city In
the country which has tried out
municipal parking lots where
they have been n failure"
The bureau approves civil service
for the election commission and
approves the setting back OF the
deadline for Detroit property
assessments from April ! 70 March
! 10 give the assessors a longer
period 10 hear appeals OF diSsatis--
fed taxpayers.

GONE WITH WIND STILL PLAYING AS
 CAPITOL FEATURE
Technitdor Movie Seen in Return Engagement al
 Local Theatre

Every motion picture critic has | vision of some day encounter ] ing a screen epic which is a picture
 so perfect that it beggars all super
 latives, so outstanding that it defies description. Such picture is
 Gone with the Wind,' currently
 showing at the Capitol Theatre for limited engagement. The current showing presents the picture in is complete, full-length version-noth- ing Gut but the price.
 Most films have highlights on which to concentrate. Gone with the Wind" has so many that re- viewer is mentally handcuffed. It is one supreme composite highlight- the entire picture, from the impress sive presentation of the title, to the last pictorially inspiring fade-out. It is truly the greatest picture ever made and, since it follows so faith fully Margaret Mitchels story of the Old South that one is left wondering how it was ever achieved, it must follow that Miss Mitchell's story must be the Great American Novel
 The whole world felt that Clark Gable was the perfect Rhett But Ter. He is, and gives his greatest performance. Technicolor even en- hances his amazing personality. As for Vivien Leigh, she emerges as a star whose perfection as Scarlett is almost beyond belief Not only is she an overnight star but the greatest film discovery of this or any other year. She and Gable make Scarlett and Rhett so real that cinema magic seems to turn into life itself.
 It is difficult to conceive Of Olivia de Havilland ever giving a greater performance, so magnifi- cent is she as Melanie. Leslie How ard always is great but he's never been greater than as Ashley. There are perhaps several dozen other players on which one could well go into ecstasies, but space does not permit.

GREAT ktGIMIY' BAITRAtTl0N Al
 2oTh CENTURY
Brian Donlevy Plays lille Role in Feature Play
 ing Here

McGinty the mythical character of song and story, the gent who figuratively went down to the bottom of the sea" has come to life, and. as a politician of the shadier sort, follows his counter part in his rise and fall in the new Paramount picture, The Great McGinty.' which opened yesterday at the 20th Century Theatre.
 McGinty of the movies is a two listed so-and-so who, after being pluckcd from breadline, wins favoe with the boss of the city by virtue of good left hook and his caeerness to use it on anyone, in- c.uding the boss himself
 MT. MeGinty punches his way up the political ladder as second in command of the city in the collec- ticn and division of political spoils. He goes from Alderman to Mayor, and from Mayor to Governor of the state. This latter post, how ever, does not materialize until he mariies his secretary, an idea ad- vanced by his only superior as a means of assuring the feminine vote, which favors married men in office.
 steam -rollered' into office, and finding that being married to his former secretary isn't bad at all McGinty decides to go straight at his wife's suggestion, which, in the long run, turns out to be a very bad idea, at least for McGinty and | his Boss They both land in jail They're still able to pull a few strings, however. and finally find themselves on a liner destina- ton unknown. It happens that they slowed away on a banana boat and wind up in a South Am erican republic sans everything but the clothes they stand in.
 "The Great McGinty" starts the beginning of the end on this note and much of the tense drama that permeated the film to this point gives way to some hilarious comedy situations.

 Escapes from Russia
 When that conflict started Wal pole was vacationing in Russia. He joined the imperial Russian Red Cross, saw two years of service and won the Georgian medal Then, foreseeing the collapse of the czar- ist regime, he escaped from the country just before revolution gripped it.
 Despite his Red Cross duties, he found time to write The Golden Scarecrow' in 1915 and The Dark Forest based on his war experi- ences, and Joseph Conrad in 1916.
 His postwar works enjoyed a popularity that never waned. They included the Jeremy" books-"Jer- emy,' Jeremy and Hamlet and Jeremy at Crale'-generally be- lieved to have been based on Wal poles experiences as a schoolboy His historical studies at Cambridge were reflected in the 'Herries saga and several novels were writ ten about life in a Cathedral city, an insight gained from his fathers tenure at Edinburgh.
 One of the notable works in this last classification was 'The Cathe- dral," which was published in 1922 and dramatized ten years later. Other books which were made over for the stage were "The Young Huntress," Portrait of a Man With Red Hair and The Old Ladies' The plays met with vary ing success, but Walpole had a lik- ing for things theatrical and in 1884 and 1886 was summoned to Hollywood as consultant on films with English themes.
 He also did considerable featuring in the United States, making half dozen tours in the decade fol- lowing the World War.
 Walpole created some kind of a record by the number of prefaces which he wrote for other authors books. The total was a mystery, for he himself said he had no idea how many he had turned out
 He once claimed for himself
 thousands of enthusiasms, cease less conversations, ignorance of facts and love of long walks" He spent many years at his home near Keswick, in the heart of the Cum berland Mountains in northwest England.

 When he was eight he lived in New York where his father was a professor of theology. Then the family returned to Britain an d Hugh was sent to Kings School, Canterbury. To this, the oldest school in England, claiming foun- dation by St. Augustine in A.

 rica, as the world speculated on the possibility of a sudden ber- serk thrust by the fuehrer in an attempt to retrieve his tattered military fortunes. European ob- servers predicted that Hitler, in his new role of supreme war lord of the German armies will soon try to open a new front in re- gions less hostile to blitzkieg cam paigning than winter-frozen Rus sia.
