HOLLYWOOD, May 27 - In
somewhat labored Eng sh, a
French director today told how
Canadian-born Deanna Durbin
will appear in a picture that
WanderS over half the world,
ending in the United States and
inluding an earlier sequence in
which Japanese bombs boom an
accompaniment to a lullaby
sung by the star in Chinese.
This international me,angc
ought to be apple pie, or maybe
peches flambeauX, for Jean
Renoir. His first job for Hol-
lyWood, when he knew almost
no English, was the direction of
Swamp Water" story laid
and partly filmed in Georgia.
There was a good deal of dispar-
aging comment about his Sclcc-
ton for such a "typiCally Am
crican' picture. But RenOir went
ahead, serene in his belief that
country people are pretty much
alike everywhere. And Swamp
Water turned out fine, full Of
feeling and flavor.
UNUSUAL PAIR
His current association is
with Producer Bruce Manning,
who helped write most of the
Durbin pictures. They make an
odd pair Of CollabOratOrS-thc
forCefuI, slangy eX-neWSpapcr-
man and the sensitive, soft
spoken FrenChman, feeling for
his words. They preside at story
conferences under a bog tree on

que about how to get Miss Dur

Arthur B. NewhoII, rubber
coordinotor for the War Pro-
duction Boord, reduces the
rubber shortage to this simple
explanation:
A combat tank with q steel
track is 20 per cent less ettl-
Gent than q tank with O rub
Der track. If any Of you would
rather have your sons 90 TO
war in tanks that are only 80
per cent efficient so that you
can 90 joy-riding, then may
be this rubber shortage can
be solved. But if you wont
your son to fight in tanks thot
ore 100 per cent efficient and
better than the enemy's, then
you'll have to do without the
joy-ride.
Maybe in time the orithme-
tic books will have to be re-
written using problems that
tie in with rotioning, price,
fixinq and conservation. Here,
for instance, is q question pos

IrVered nine style numbers at
Sl4.5O per Dozen, Later in
March he roised the prices on

two Of these three numbers at
the higher price. What would
be his moximum price on the

A. - Only the two style

EXPERTS AGREE

American newspaper correspond
ents. released from internment IN
Germany and ItoIY seem to ogree
unanimously that the economies ana
morales Of the axis notions are low
now and sinking lower.
This comedies with the most cred
bile information we have been getting
Out of enemy countries for some time.
The reporters are unanimous like
wise in warning that they have seen
nothing that would justify belief that
other Germany or Italy is close to the
cracking point.
(. They say that while the tide is turn
inq, Hitler's armies will have to be
licked on the bottIefieIds before the

They say only that if we go all out, we

scend, nor has withstood their assaults
half as long as have the Chinese. They
like the British, have known what it is
to stand without effectuoI allies
against superior military force. They
kept their faith in democracy when
democrocies seemed to be losing faith
in themselves.
The Chinese have shown such
logged hopefuIness, such patience in
protrocted trial, such CoInness in
crisis, that their call for help from their
allies now should not have to be accom-
panied by any proofs Of urgency.
Strotegists in Washington and London
must calculate how widely the Allied
war effort can be spread without socri-
ficing that concentration necessary
for effective thrusts at the Axis. Yet
the consequences Of Chinese defeat
would be SO grave for the United Ma
tons that this oily must be supported
even at great cost and great risks.
Though the Russian front promises
to be the most decisive Of all fronts now
open, the course Of the war in China
might prove equally decisive. Should
Japan knock out China the Russians
would have at their backs q foe re-
strained from attacking only by such
power as the Russians themselves
could muster on their eastern borders.
Ready or not, the United Nations
might then have no other course but
to open q second front on the Conti-
nent to relieve O Russia caught in
two-front war. Moreover, the time
when United Nations air power might
operate in great force against Japan
itself might be long postponed.
Reports on Japanese troop move
ments in China indicate the growing
danger China feels. Closing Of the
Burma Rood over which most Of
Chino's supplies had been passing, and
the probability that the road from In
dio cannot soon be completed, must
suggest to Tokyo that this is q propiti-
Gus moment for an oII-out offensive
against Chino, especially as India has
become less tempting now that the
rains have set in.
Among suggestions for did to
China that United Nations strotegists
must be considering is the possibility
Of shipping supplies by air over the
HimoIoyos. Some oirmen have onoz-
ing stories to tell Of the potentoIties
Of air transport Of supplies
Another project might be the ship
nent Of Russian motereI from nearby
points in Russia, this to be compensate
ed by British and American shipments
to Russia. And the more quickly allied
forces in India ore built up to q point
where they become q threat to the
Japanese position in Burma the better
Naturally whatever military diver
sons the United Nations can offer the
japanese will be greatly appreciated
by our great eastern ally. Even though
the Chinese look O bit IongingIy at the
supplies which have been poured into
Australia, some increased horrying Of
the japanese in the islands north Of
that Continent would drow dir strength
owoy from the Chinese front.
The Chinese have been in the habit
Of helping themselves out Of their diff
ticuIties, This foct puts great force be-
hind their coll for help in this crisis
this foct, and another, which oil the
United Nations recognize: namely,
that Chino's war is our war. Chino's
victory will be our victory. And no
