 In addition, Badr Bey revealed, the government is negotiating with the Allied military authorities over the future of Egyptian skilled work CTS. Two proposals are under con- sideration.
 1. To have Allied Military install lations remain in Egypt until after the end of the war with Japan, in stead of their being moved to India or elswhere.
 2. To sell such installations to the Egyptian government, which would

 But little has been said of the fu- ture of countless little industries that have sprung up during the war. They produced widely varied materials for Allied troops, repaired planes, tanks and ships, and bull, parts for all types of equipment.
 A few of these wartime industric2 are attempting to switch to civilian production, but lack of tools ar technical knowledge, as well as lack of help from government SOU are proving hard obstacles to over come.

Through all his literary despon-

The play gets its title from the
collection of glass animals with
which Julie Hayden, as the crippled
girl, occupies most of her time. An
ethereal introvert, she is tempera-

social defeat.

NEW YORK

NEW YORK.
1.-The Glass Menagerie," the first
play by Tennessee Williams to be
produced on Broadway, stands a
very good chance of walking off
with the Critics Circle prize, accord
ing to the extravagant praise it re-
ceived this week.
While the play itself came in for
some glittering encomiums, the most
eXtravagant praise was draped on
the extremely worthy shoulders of
Laurette Taylor, an actress of dis
tinction whose performance in the
Williams play now is generally ac-
cepted as the peak of her long and
noted career
Miss Taylor, at So. is slipping the
extremely heady cup of unstinted
critical acclaim, which she emf
nently deserves. Her acting in
The Glass Menagerie' is impec-
cably correct in a difficult part. In
less worthy hands the entire pro-
ducbtion might have sagged. In
trusted to the brilliant effectiveness
of Miss Taylor, the show which
opened at the Playhouse theater
rises we'll above the dramaturgical
values of the play proper.
Play Is Reminiscent.
Tennessee Williams has written a
four character, single set play. 1t
is presented in the brooding, half
lit fashion reminiscent of Clifford
Odets' group theater days, of Max
we'll Anderson's beautifully prof.
cient prose such as "Winterset," OF
William Saroyan in almost any
thing he has attempted.
The Glass Menagerie" for the
most part is effectively contrived;
the feeling will not 60 away, how
ever, that it most definitely is con-
trived. and its compulsion is clearly
discernible. But it contains able
characterizations by Eddie Dowling
Julie Hayden and a particularly
effective one by Anthony Ross, plus
the superb acting triumph of Miss
Taylor, of much more Importance
than the play itself, lifting it by the
scruff into a realm of near-excel-
lence.
The nuances of Miss Taylor's per-
formance are almost unbelievably
perfect.
The play, which tells the story OF
q mothers ill-starred efforts to find
husband for her crippled daugh-
ter, is a strange and moody affair
mystically morose, frustrating ano
depressing. 1t accomplishes more
than a moderate eloquence, a sub
