about Milland, they wax period
tcally eloquent, and have even gone
so far as to label him one of the
four most difficult persons in Holly
wood to interview.
In spite of his lack of publicity
which disturbs publicity depart
mentS even more than it does the
columnistS of the cinema capital,
Milland has one of the most con-
siderable fan followings in the pro-
fession. 1t may lack the noisy ex-
pressiveness of other similar groups
but its loyalty is unquestionable.
Paramount's new contract with the
Irish-born star is the most emphatic
testimony of that fact. 1t runs vir-
tually into Milland's old age and at
a figure that one may be sure is
handsome even if both parties to
it have been reserved about men,
tioning it.
The strange thing about Milland's
aloofness is that, unlike the same
quality in, say, Jean Arthur, it has
brought him no enmity among the
cinema writing craft. It is Just his
way and is so innocent of high
hattishness that it is accepted as
such. He is very agreeable fellow,
popular with every one, but just not
writeable.
Ask his fellow professionals about
Milland's success in spite of his
violation of the Hollywood tradition
that mans name must be kept be-
fore the public and they have but
one answer:
why, he is good actor"
For parallel case, the more
astute of Milland's associates may
cite that of Spencer Tracy. The il
1ustration initially is rather sur
prising, but when one checks the
records, one finds that Tracy is one
of the most elusive of names in the
Hollywood gossip. OF studio re-
leases about him, this department
does not recall having seen a one
in the last year. But despite his
own, and the studios reticence, the
subject of the best actor never
comes UP that Tracy's is not the
first or second name mentioned.
And when good comedy roles come
along, such as Millan's latest in
LADY in the Dark" his name is
one of the first remembered by di-
rectors, the ones who count most
In such situations.
A patient analyst probably could
find something significant in the
relationship between the talent some
players have and the publicity
others need.

Eugene ONeill, generally regarded
as the pre-eminent American play
wright despite his long absence from
the theater, finds his way into the
Catholic University drama depart
ment's Season Americana as a result
of a revision in the original program
His "Ah, Wilderness" will replace
Girl of the Golden West" as the
production which opens on Wednes-
day, April IL.
This shift was occasioned by the
feeling of the theater's executive
staff that the period of American
melodrama already had been ade-
quately covered by the presentation
of Secret Service" william Gill
lette's drama of the Civil War.
"Ah, Wilderness" Father Gilbert
V. Hartke points out, has been one
OF the most popular American plays
since its production by the Theater
Guild in 1888, that in both the pro-
fessional and noncommercial thea
ter, it Is one of the loved Of
ONeill's plays. has been since it was

After all these years of hearing
that Wallace Beery and Marjorie

Marie Dressler dropped it, it turns
out otherwise. Monogram has pur-

DR.. Grosvenor Calls
Montgomery Charter
Dangerous Experiment

DR.. Gilbert H. Grosvenor, presi-
dent of the National Geographic So
ciety, said today that he regards
provisions of the proposed Mont
gomery County charter as expert
mental, dangerous and burdensome. y
In a statement issued through the
Citizens Committee to Defeat the
Charter, DR.. Grosvenor said he saw
no need for sweeping fundamental
and experimental change in the plan
of government in the county.
Through my 80 years residence,
the people of Montgomery County
have enjoyed helpful and orderly
county government, both in the ad-
ministrative branches and as affect
ing the local public improvement
plan," DR.. Grosvenor said.

Under the present plan," he con-
tinued, every four years the voters
of this county have a complete op-.
portunity to change their county Of
flcials and administration. saw
them do this in 1884.
IT so heartily approve of the re-
suits of government in Montgomery
County today and I am so appre-
hensive of the probable results of
this charter, should it be adopted,
that this week I am personally pay
ing for the republication in a Be-
thesda paper of the advertisement
which the Citizens Committee to
Defeat the Charter published in the
Washington Star and Post last
Sunday.
IT believe that this advertisement
is true and accurate statement of
the existing results of government
in Montgomery County and voices
entirely justifiable and important
objections to the terms of the pend
ing charter"
Lee Defends Charter.
Meanwhile, Frederic P. Lee, chair
man of the board which drafted the
charter, said today that the realign-
ment of county departments under
the proposed charter would elimi-
nate duplication and centralize in
the Board of Education authority
over schools. He said the charter
similarly would streamline public
welfare and other functions.
Mr.. Lee described as ridiculous"
statements by anticharter spokes-
men that the change would add to
duplication of jobs and functions.
"On the contrary" Mr.. Lee said,
"the present hodgepodge and un-
necessary administrative costs would
be done away with"
Herman c. Loeffler, a member of
the Charter Committee, speaking
last night in one of series of char
ter debates at Fairland School,
charged that pamphlets being
mailed by charter opponents to-
county voters in an effort to defeat
the proposed new setup contain
omissions and distortions" b.
"Phony Tax Rate"
1--WE have had phony tax rate in
the county year after year because
the politicians have paid expendi-
lures by borrowing rather than face
the music with an honest tax rate"
he said. Just how phony we are
not told and we can't even figure
out from supposedly complete dis
cussion of Montgomery County
debt"
He added that the anticharter
pamphlets "are silent about the
present county Administrations
practice of borrowing millions of
dollars In recent years to pay off old
bonds falling due for payment. We
know that such new borrowing has
meant heavy additional interest
costs to the taxpayers stretching far
into the future. Again the pamphlet
is silent"
