There's a souvenir Monty ought to take along, It's painting from the M-G-M prop shop, a painting that stands for the start of Monty's movie career. Here's how:
 In l937 Woolley was ready to shave his beard, stand on his head, or dance in blackface, anything for a call to work at his usual $35 a day. One day Director George Fitz- maurice had a bit for him in Live, Love and Learn" Monty arrived on the set to learn that the bit had been cut out.
 That was when Robert Benchley and Bob Montgomery, star of the picture, put in their oars. The set ting was an art store and why not, suggested the two Bobs in Monty behalf, have Monty appear as a customer? Monty would be looking at a picture, and Montgomery, from above, would mistake him for a bill collector and accidentally drop a vase The director agreed, Monty was in-and the scene of Monty getting conked with the objet dart was funny enough to sustain him in many more bits and parts until his

He maintained that government should be by the high-minded and not by the masses. For the United States he said salvation could be attained only through adoption of a system whereby the government head would be kind of monar- chial "chief of state" elected for life by the governors of the states.
 Ideas On Presidency
 .... "The worst point in our govern ment,," he continued, lis that our president is the head of party. The head of the government should not be dependent upon popular vote and he should serve for life. He could be selected along the lines of the electoral system used for the papacy."
 Originally republican, he sup ported Franklin D. Roosevelt whose subsistence homestead" idea Cram designated as a favorable step to- ward the idea of medievalism. He also supported Alfred E. Smith of New York in his campaign for the presidency, because, he said, he resented attacks made on him on the issue of religion.
 Born at Hampton Falls, N. H, Dec. 16, 1863, he was the son of a Unitarian minister.
 In 1900 he married Elizabeth Darlington Read of New Bedford, Mass. He was the author of more than 20 books, including My Life In Architecture, and "The End of Democracy"

NEW WINE" HAS ROMANTIC MUSIC
 BY F. SCHUBERT
Ilona Massey, Star of Bal aIaika' in New Capi-
 toI Theatre Feature

Starring Ilona Massey, who for merly scored in the musical Bal alaika,' the picture New Wine, v dramatic film romance based on the life of Franz Schubert and fea- turing his glorious music, is slated to open tomorrow at the Capitol Theatre for a two-night run.
 The action of the romance is centered in the gay Vienna of long ago.
 New Wine" tells a sparkling story of Franz Schubert's early Viennese days-when that once glorious city rang with song and music and romance.
 Schubert was forced to flee from Vienna to escape being conscripted for a foreign army and he landed on huge Hungarian estate where he meets a giddy countess and her manageress. The latter, a beauti- ful young girl, realizes his great genius and falls in love with him, to boot. How her efforts to help him fail and bring them back to Vienna provides the picture with many amusing and light-hearted incidents. Back in Vienna, the lov- CTS once again live through many exciting and dramatic experiences and the story ends with a smash ing, unexpected climax
