Mrs Sidney Buchanan, whose hus-
band produced ITO the Ends of
the Earth" and had been looking
both in San Francisco and New
York for a Chinese girl fitting
Maylia's description.
A note was sent to her asking
IL she would like to be tested for
role in motion picture and, of
course. she answered 1t In the af-
firmative. Her test was describ-
ed by Jay Richard Kennedy, who
acted as associate producer on the
picture, as terrific" Since it
was Kennedy who gathered all
the material from U. S. Treasury
Department files for this story
and insisted from the beginning
that all details be accurate, May
las chance in the picture was
thenceforth assured.
Love follows success, they say.
The beautiful young woman fell
in love. with almost equally sud
deness. in a matter of few weeks.
Miss Chin met and married Ben
son Fong, young Chinese actor
who had been playing the role of
the son in the Charlie Chan"
series.
Another highlight of the pic
ture is the character role, Vladi-
mir Sokoloff. He plays the role of
the all-wise Chinese super-detec-
tive who knows the ways of the
Orient. He gives Dick Powell a
real lesson in detective work, and
puts him on the trail of the big
gest opium ring in the history of
the world. The picture should be
one that everyone goes to see If
for no more than to enjoy the
refreshing beauty of Maylia and
the sagacity and super sleuthing
of Vladimir Sokoloff.

For Your Easter Reading
DESCRIPTION OF CHRIST

The following epistle is said
to have been taken by Napoleon
from the record of Rome when he
deprived that city or so many
valuable manuscripts. 1t was
written at the time and on the
spot where Jesus commenced his
ministry. by Publicus Lentulus,
Governor of Judea, to the senate
of Rome. Julius Caeser, Emperor.
II was the custom in those days
for the governor to write home any
event that transpired while he
held his office.
"Conscript Fathers: In these
our days appeared a man named
Jesus Christ. who is yet living
among us, and of the Gentiles
is accepted as a prophet of great
truth; but his own disciples call
him the son of God. He has raised
the dead and cured all manner
of disease, He is man of stature
somewhat tall and comedy, with
rudy countenance such as the
beholder may both love and fear.
His hair is the color of a filbert
when fully ripe. Plain to his ear.
whence downward 1t is more of
orient color, curling and weaving
on his shoulders. in the middle
of his head is a seam of long
hair after the manner of the
Nazarites. His forehead is plain
and delicate; the face without
spot or wrinkle, beautiful with a
comedy red; his nose and mouth
exactly formed; his beard is the
color of his hair and thick; not
of any length but forked.
In reproving he is terrible;
admonishing, courteous; in speak
ing, very modest and wise; in
proportion of body, well shaped.
None have seen him laugh, many
have seen him weep. A man for
his SURPRISING beauty excelling
the children of men,"

IF | WERE WHITE

If l were white would not
have the nerve to loudly proclaim
myself 100 per cent American and
a noble champion of democracy in
town where a Negro child can
not use public swimming pool
on hot day or eat dish of ice
cream in a downtown confection-
cry. I would not red-bait a great
Negro singer, and at the same
time race-hate a small black boy
or girl. l would be ashamed to
do that, if were white.
But then l would be ashamed
to be a great Secretary of State
in Washington defending the right
to vote three thousand miles away
in the Balkans but not saying a
word about the right to vote for
thousands of black citizens in his
own home state. Maybe it is be-
cause our BIG white folks set such
strange examples, that our little
white folks in Georgia and Illinois
act so badly. Anyway, l would be
ashamed.-Longston Hughes.
