principles which dominated them
were alien to her thinking, but she
tolerated them with vagrant wisps

heart that added enormous warmth

Another reason for hoping that
Miss Allgood, who has q good chance.
might win the award is that she
deserves it for Hollywood's tardiness
in discovering her.
1.-THE funniest comedienne In the
English language" critics on two
sides Of the Atlantic have been
writing Of Miss Allgood ever since
her long-ago Abbey Theater days.
Equally lofty was their praise when
she was not cast in a comic role, but
in a tensely dramatic one. When
critics prizes, as well as their praise,
were to be awarded, Miss Allgood
would get them-the last one for
her playing in Juno and the Pay
cock" on Broadway two seasons ago.
In spite of all this praise for her
work in the theater. year after year,
and for her movie work in England,
Hollywood discovered Miss Allgood
only couple Of years ago. Moreover,
she might have remained undis-
covered even now had not Englands
Alexander Korda, with whom she
had worked abroad, taken her to the
coast to play Lady Hamiltons
mother to Vivien Leigh's Lady Ham
ilton.
That was not a very good picture.
but whatever its faults, 1t was good
enough-because she was-to con-
vince Hollywood that It needed Miss
Allgood desperately.
Beyond all that, Miss Allgood is
known to everv one who ever has
met her as "a love Of q lady," and
the most unself- conscious actress
anv one ever met.

PeIIey Denied
New Trial
Court Of Appeals
UphoIds Conviction

CHICAGO, Dec. 18 - (P) -
The circuit court of appeals af-
firmed the conviction of Will
liam Dudley Pelley, founder of
the Silver Shirts of America, and
two co-defendants in the first
major sedition case of the war
yesterday.
The court denied the techni-
cal arguments of the defense md
held:
In time of war, when sue
cess depends on unified nation
al effort, abiding loyalty and
unremitting patriotism, one who
broadcasts falsely, as verities,
miSstatements of the country's
continued failure in battlc, as
Serts that it is destitute of de-
lenses, is bankrupt, that it has
prejudiced and incompetent
leadership and extols the
virtues of the enemy, cannot
successfully challenge the YER
dict of jury which found him
guilty"
The opinion further declared
it to be hardly conceivable that
writer or speaker would have
written such propaganda, at a
time when his country was at
war, save as he entertained the
hope of weakening the patriotic
resolve of his fellow citizens"
Pelley was sentenced in Ind
annapolis last August to Is
years Imprisonment for GRIMM
al sedition. Lawrence A. Brown,
an associate in Fellowship Press
Inc, was sentenced :, five years
on a conspiracy count and the
firm itself was fined $4,000.

restaurants. Yes, a hotel on the
Strand does charge a dollar for
one unpeeled, fresh peach. serv-
ed in lonely majesty on slight
ly worn grape leaf. Yes, we have
no bananas-nor oranges, grape
fruit nor lemons today; nor
any other day. The green peas
are like nuggets in rarity and
hardness.
That yellow silver about the
diameter and thickness of a
quarter-dollar is margarine, not
butter. Sausages contain more
bread and stuff than pork, with
the result that they look (and
probably taste) like greasy wads
of paper scorched by match.
Grapes, no. Baked beans, no.
Ice cream, no. Milk, thin. Beer,
flat. Table wines, inferior and
scarce. Sugar, a tiny lump per
meal. Steaks, almost non-exis-

nourishing, we'll cooked food
than is good for his waistline.
Roast beef, lamb, mutton, ham,
bacon, hare, fish, poultry wild
fowl, American pressed pork are
common items on menus in all
the better restaurants. Even
steaks sometimes are available
to regular" customers.
Raw and cooked apples, pears
and many stewed fruits abound.
Potatoes, cabbage, brus sells
sprouts and turnips figure too
largely in most menus for the
average taste, but usually fresh
lettuce salads are obtainable.
The breads are heavy but tasty.
Tomatoes are small-but toma-
toes. Portions of everything gen.
orally are not large but are adj

eating here is to 60 early-be-

You can eat well in London. but
to do so you must eat expensive
ly. Oh, sure-fifty cents will
buy fairish lunch in a chain
restaurant. But the average Wis
iting American inquest of we'll
rounded meals will come much
nearer to spending between
three and six dollars per day in
restaurants.
