MORE CONVERSIONS l MADE IMPERATIVE
Petroleum Fuel Situation in New England Re-
 gardcd as Serious

Boston. September a. Cepecial) A--The petroleum fuels situation has, become 50 serious in New England that 50 per cent more industrial conyeFsi0ns from ell to cau must De Inade, according to . statement sent today by the Executive mad Indus trial Committees 0f the New Eng- land Council to more than 200 in- dustrial and commercial organiSa- tions.
 The committees recommended that every manufacturer usine oil convert his equipment to coal at the earliest possible moment and order for immediate delivery four montls' supply of coal to ensure plant operation through the winter months.
 The text of the statement follows:
 The Committees have been give en Information and data from re- spOnsible sources, both official and industrial, indicating conclusively that the situation regarding fuel oil supplies is becoming increasing ly criticG: as the winter season ap- breaches.
 Many conversions have been made, but 1t Is necessary that they be increased by at least fifty per cent. It IS essential that each and every manufacturer located in this area make conversion from the con- sumption of fufel oil to coal, where ever practicable, and secure for im- mediate delivery a minimum of four months supply of coal, to assure continued operation of his plant throughout the winter months.
 we fully realize that conversion of oil-burning equipment is usually inconvenient and often expensive. However, it is nowhere near as in- convenient or expensive as shut downs for lack of fuel.
 Doubtless your organization has already lent its cooperation in fur thering the conversion program. The purpose of this letter is to request that you go one step further, and again bring the subject to the ina- mediate attention of your members, with all the urgency you can give 1t.
 This office is in touch with the New England regional headquarters of federal war agencies in Boston. If we can be of assistance in meet ing any objection or obstacle to conversion encountered by you or your members, we shall be glad to give you nay help we can."

The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-11-13

Along with the news Of the worth of the play should go the intelli- gence that its star is London,s Flora Robson, the really fine actress who has been seen here previously in Ladies in Retirement" and Anne of England" Much of Miss Rob- sons work has been in character roles Of wide range. In this play she attempts something new for her, playing a romantic lead in what would have been called "a comedy Of manners in the old days. That she succeeds beautifully is a tribute to her histrionic powers and per- sonal warmth, because Miss Robson would be the first to admit that, so far as facial beauty is concerned. she was not cut out to be pretty heroine. Fortunately for her, and for us. there is such a thing as in- ner beauty which can overcome a plain exterior.
 We'll Written and Acted
 The play is the collaborative ef- fort of van Druten and one Lloyd Morris, the latter probably being the idea man. It really isn't much of an Idea when you come right down to 1t, but the writing and the acting accomplish wonders in mak- ing 1t acceptable. The third act isn't all that 1t might have been but its descent into the obvious is not so rank as to spoil completely the good will built up in the first two excel lent acts.
 The locale is New York City, mid December, 1909. All of the action occurs in the upstairs living room of the society Randall family-wid- owed mother. 3o-year-old bachelor son and a son and daughter in their late teens. Their guest is a niece and couSin-of the very wealthy British branch of the family, Rhoda a plain young woman we'll along in her POS who has not yet married, something of a drawback to a woman of her class in those days. Hence her visit to New York, rather obviously engineered by her mother and aunt.

The trouble, of course, is that Rhoda for years has been in love with the elder Randall son. her cousin, who always has regarded her simply as pal and confidante At the moment he is in the process of being engaged to an actress, to his mothers diSmay, although she accepts the situation. At the last minute Randall realizes he doesn | want 10 marry the actress, although he will see it through in gentle manly fashion. Discovering this, and that the actress is making the alliance solely for security and not for love, gives Rhoda an excuse for pulling a few Strings-including those of her purse--to break the engagement and leave everyone happy. including herself. whe n Randall discovers that she is the one he should marry.
 Cast Is Excellent
 I'll be the first to admit that that doesn't sound like much-and what plot does, for that matter, when you trim it down to its bones?-but the authors have been fortunate in hitting upon the right words and situations to tell it so that it be- comes a happy experience in the theater.
 Supporting Miss Robson is a grade-A cast, topped by Myron Me Cormick. the ever-dependable, as Randall: Margaret Douglass as fusSy Mrs. Randall: Ruth Vivian; Joan Tetzel; Celeste Holm, real beauty who also can act and has come a long way in brief career; P r Fernandez, and Zachary Scott.

 STATE FEATURE
Bette Davis Great in Lat. est Film; Murder Story
 on Same Program

''Now. voyager" currently at War. ner's State theater is the name of Bette Davis newest picture and great IS the word for both the picture and It's star.
 Tn one of the grandest love stories the screen has ever told, Miss Davis rises to the greatest heights of her entire dramatic career, and the re- suit Is the years finest screen enc tertainment.
 Here is a film story so sensitively directed, as ably enacted that the audience cannot help but live the events as they unfold on the screen.
 Bette Is cast as Carlotta Vale, a girl who has been kept in such com plete seclusion by her mother for so long a period, that she suffers nervous breakdown as a result. It is a role that calls for a superb per- formance, and Miss Davis certainly gives that.
 Cast opposite Miss Davis is Paul Henreid, who gave such fine per- formances in the play Flight to The West" and the film Joan of Paris" This picture will most cer- tainly put him up with the screens greatest lovers. His portrayal of lonely man who finds happiness but cannot accept it, is flawless.
 Claude Rains. as the pSychiatrist called in to help Carlotta find the road to happiness, gives fine per- formance. Never does the audience get the feeling that here is a pro- fessional physician, but good friend of the family. The role of the mother who is strict disciplinarian is played with superb realism by Gladys Cooper, famous actress of the Lon don stage.
 Others in the talented cast in- clude such favorites as Ilka Chase, Franklin Pangborn, Bonita Gram vile and Lee Patrick.
 Murder in the Big House" is the second big hit of the program and featured Van Johnson and Faye Emerson.
 Rita Hayworth's luscious Latin beauty. Fred Astaire's exciting rhythm and Perome Kern's sensa- tional songs are the delightful en- tertainment ingredients of You Were Never Lovelier," said to be the finest musical film of recent years, which starts its engagement Wednesday at the State.
 In addition to Miss Hayworth and Astaire the extravaganza features such outstanding favorites as Adobe Menjou and Xavier Cugat and his orchestra. Parachute Nurse" with Kay Harris and Michael Chapman will b. the second hit of the program.
 Outstanding the mammoth array of spectacular productions coming soon to the State is the hilarious comedy George Wash ington Slept Here" co-starring Jack Benny and Ann Sheridan: also coming soon is the long awaited Between Us Girls starring Diana Barrymore and Robert Cummings.

Margie Hart Stars in Lure of the Islands Opening
 Tomorrow

The special charms of the highly publiciEed Margie Hart first lady of burlesque, will be unveiled ct the strand theater tomorrow afternoon, when she makes her film debut as the star of the Monogram South Sea romance, Lure of the Islands" !"
 preview critics have haStened to remark that the unveiling is c complete success, and furnishes more than a hint Of the reasons for her remarkable popularity in her chosen field. The statuesque Margie is an eye-filling spectacle, either in sarong or grass skirt. Miss Hart is said to give a thor oughly satisfying performance, in a picture which is filled with the charm and color of the South Sea, as well as dramatic incidental to the discovery of intrigue in the is- lands.
 In addition to dancing a modified hula, Miss Hart sings the theme song of the picture; and an exc pecially catchy number, Tahiti Sweetie", is sung by the very pretty grass-skirted Gale storm. Mss Storm is delightful, and seems very definitely to be star material. Other tuneful interludes are contributed by Polynesian musicians, singers and dancers.
 Miss Tiart's supporting cast in Lure of the Islands" is excellent throughout. Robert Lowery plays the leading male role, while other important parts are played by Quinn Williams, Ivan Levedeff and Warren Hymer. Lure of the Is- lands' is an unusually entertaining picture. And then there's Margie.
 On the same program is another smash hit, "Bowery at Midnight" thrilling mystery-drama featuring Bella Lugosi of "Dracula" fame.
