Argentina, the film tells us, has had
her good reasons for remaining
neutral, reasons beyond those of
any Nazi interests in the country.
Argentina has been built on foreign
trade, on trade with Europe more
than with the United States, which
can't use her beef, for instance.
And Argentina feels she will have
to continue exporting to Europe
after the war.

d. This brings us today up to the
case of "An That Money Can Buy"
which opened yesterday at R-K-O
Keith's. The sundry events and
affairs which Producer Director Will
liam Dieterle and his associates have
provided to turn Stephen Vincent
Benet's prize-winning THE Devil

play do contribute to the retention
of the salty spirit of the original
short story. But they do not clarity

Hollywood. of course. never was a
place where dramatic underst ate
ment has f1ourished, so it may be
understandable that Mr.. Dieterle
and his cohorts have felt that 1t is
not enough, as Mr.. Benet felt in his
original short story, to point out
that man who sold his soul to the
devil might very likely repent when
the debt came due

casionally no more subtle than a

of his soul. He gets all his neigh

woman who turns up in a puff of
fame before his fireplace one eve

state before his wife takes his case

1t really is worth while enduring
some of the dull and confused mo-

Persecution Of

the Jews in Europe is being carried
out"

The council at that meeting went or

HIGHLIGHTS OF

NO TINE FOR POSTWAR CAR
BY j. E. JONES

Speculation over the shape of things

end of the war was dOused in cold
water the other day by man who
can properly be called IAN authOrita-

that the company's 100 plants in the

war materials at rate of more than

production of cars Immediately after
] the war.
He predicted that they would not
differ radically from the models which
the industry recently stopped making.
Then, referring TO the fact that all of
his company's technical skill was de-
voted exclusively to the goal of Win
ming the war; he said:
"Any one who is able to produce a
radically new automobile within six
months after the peace will have been
cheating during the war"
That one pungent sentence really
stated all there is to be said about the
post war automobile-llntil the Detroit
engineers have completed their war
time assignment of designing and pro
ducing better and better weapons for
our fighting forces and have resumed
their work of building more efficient
and comfortable peacetime world.
Some of the other things that Mr.
Wilson said are of much more fllnda.

he announced that G.. Nj. delivered
$24S, ,405, $50 worth of war materials
to the government in October, surpass

One of the reasons why women
