ment that make it pleasant adj

ter than usual.
The brightest single asset of
Music for Millions" could be highly
moot, but this commentator is ready
to do battle in behalf of little Miss
O'Brien. She is completely at ease
in an assignment that varies from
requiring her to be patronizing,
briefly, to such an internationally
known artist as Mr.. Iturbi to de-
livering reproving lecture to Du-
rante onshis ignorance of simple BIZ
ology. At 7, such versatility is as
impressive as it is amusing.
That sense OF grandeur which used
to turn big musicales into colossal
bores is absent entire in the Palace S
new picture. Its stars are people
with dimensions, but they relax
charmingly into whatever modest
situa tons have been devised for
them. Mr.. Iturbi, for instance. Is
probably at a fine artists most en-
gaging level when he sits with pipe
in mouth and plays Glare de Lune"
for Miss Allyson when her grief be-
comes unbearable over her husband S
loss. He. and every one else, is ap-
pealing. too. in those passages when
his symphony rehearsals are inter-
rupted by Miss OBrien's trick of
Juggling stool to an enceinte young
cellist who finds standing extremely
tiresome. 1t is that way, really,
throughout Music for Millions" and
you undoubtedly will find it fine
way for such pictures to be.
Durante's standing as the finest
current comedian in the cinema will
be improved by his latest work. He
is the ideal choice of robustly funny
fellow to provide the proper con-
trast between the subtle comedy of
Iturbi and the delicate mining of
Miss O'Brien. The role thought up
for him by Author Myles Connolly is
that of a symphony orchestra man.
ager who approaches that cultural
assignment with the tempestuous
energy of an ex-vaudevillian. His
musical taste may differ from that
of his conductor and the orchestra,
but he is no man to bubble. All he
wants is to be sure the show goes
on, and if that requires him to push
around a few sensitive artists, he has
the push.

Keeps Charm
At Capitol

What with Nelson Eddy and jean

all they're worth on screen, Gloria
Jean exhibiting her lyric soprano on
stage and the premiere of Sam

turns out to be quite musical week
at the Capitol.

sounds when compared to the rich,

granted. Even the high C's register
little rusty in the light of the
later Macdonald opuses.
AS far as the print goes there's
nothing to kick about. It's brand
new and does full justice to Mr..
Eddys handsome bulk. And there s
no need to worry about unsightly
cracks or wrinkles coming between
you and your movie hero. Naturally
this goes for Miss Macdonald as

Miss O'Brien for some of the years
best comedy passages. His concep-

heroine takes no surprise turnings
They are intended to be pleasant
and in the main they achieve that
objective. In the adventure of being
about to bear the baby of a young

In improving the standard of movie
musicals, has come to the obvious
conclusion in this one that long
haired music can take considerable
barbering to its advantage The
attitude of those who play no other
kind in Music for Millions" is re-
spectful. but never stuffy. The sew
eral popular classical items which
find their way into the picture fl:
altogether agreeably into the pat

the script provides for.
Music for Millions" maintains
easily the tradition that Metros
works of its type shall be not merely
drenched with stars and near-stars,
but that the stage on which they
perform shall be worthy of them
1t is, accordingly, very handsome
thing. invariably pleasing to look
at and to listen to.

UNITED STATES MUST
BID HIGHER TO GET
ANY FOREIGN SILVER

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Bankers pre-
dict an early removal of the ceiling
price on silver, restoring a free market,
followed by a sharp run up in the price
iron the present pegged level to quo
tation less fictitious in relation to the
demand. At the moment there is an
effort by consumers of the metal to buy
what they can without paying 7lc an
ounce for newly mined American metal.
There is fair amount of the newly
mined metal around but most of it is
the product of western mines and trans
portation charges add another 1zc or
more to the price when delivered here.
Since the foreign silver price here is
45c and since foreign metal can be
sold in other markets for more, little
comes within the reach Of American
buyers.
The prediction Of early restoration Of
a free silver market is based not upon
information about Washington's plans
but upon the fact that the ceiling on
foreign silver here serves no useful
purpose. The fact that, if removed, the
market would rise is another reason
why early action could be taken with
out creating any embarrassment for
Latin American countries that have
played an important role in fixing the
price of silver here.

President Truman has just issued an

The executive order was aimed at re-

The executive order specified that the
retention Of these lands by the federal
government should be subject to valid
existing rights, but shall cover all forms
Of public land disposal, including the
