LONDON, July 9.-About one
tenth of London's 10000 striking

Top u. ). and British
Officials Winding Up
Conferences on Crisis
By the Associated Press

LONDON, July 9.-Top f1nan-
cial officers of the United States
and Britain wind up today two
day conference on Britain's grow
ing financial crisis.
Secretary of the Treasury
Snyder has called a news con-
ference for later today, when 1t is
expected he may make public
some of the conclusions he has
drawn from facts presented by
Sir Stafford Cripps, Britain's
Economics Minister. during the
private talks.
Mr.. Snyder is understood to
have asked a few questions, then
sat back and let Cripps explain
Britain's plight during yesterday's s
four-hour session.
Remedies Topic Today.
A British Treasury spokesman
said the two chiefs we're to take
up possible remedies for the f1nan-
cial crisis at this mornings meet
ing.
The United States wants to
know why Britain's gold and dol
lar reserves have fallen to 1924
100000 since the end of the War
despite a S4,00o,o0o.0 900 American
loan and substantial Marshall
Plan aid.
The drop amounts to more than
q billion dollars In the past two
and-one-half years-more than
half of that In the Is months
since the start of the European
Recovery Program.
The United States also wants
to find the basic reasons for the
edge in favor of the dollar in
trade between dollar and sterling
(poundD areas. 1t wants to know
why Britain can't sell more goods
in America.
Meanwhile, word leaked out of
new dollar-saving, one-year
barter trade deal with Russia.
Deal Regarded as Normal.
It calls for Britain to exchange
machinery for nearly a million
tons of Russian coarse grains and
a big quantity of wheat. British
officials said as a matter OF
course" they would send no goods
with military potential to the
Soviets.
In Washington the State De-
partment said such a deal would
be a perfectly normal supply
proposition.
London's morning papers specu-
lated today that Mr.. Snyder and
Sir Stafford were talking over
chances of easing up on a section
of the loan agreement signed in
1e45 which forbids Britain to SET
up any discriminating import
quota against the United States
The Daily Graphic quoted dip
lomatic officials in Washington
as saying Britain had already
suggested this informally.
Import quotas are one way q
country can regulate its buying
from another.
This country wants to quit buy
ing so much from the United
States because such purchases
must be paid for in scarce dol
lars.

as the first act curtain fell, said:
And I think it is going to rain .
Yes, things were quite dramatic
at the foot of Meridian Hill last
night.
To come to Miss Holman and
20 Mistress Nine" they are a
surprising combination. 1t is in
delibly recorded in the annals of
the theater that Hiss Holman is
a great torch singer, lately broad
ened into a field labeled earth
songs" 1t is even more indelibly
recorded that the Rattigan
comedy was written for the Lunts,
especially the Mrs.
Therefore, 1t was profoundly
unlikely that the twain OF Miss
Holman and 20 Mistress Mine"
ever would meet.
1t takes the summer theater to
take care of unlikelihoods like
this.
X y X 4
1t goes without saying that Miss
Holman is no Lynn Fontanne. al
though she is Olivia Brown in 20
Mistress Mine" 1t also goes with
out saying-although to say it
helps fill a post-holiday column
that Miss Holman recognizes the
difference. She plays Olivia her
way.
Frankly, it is not way to
give Olivia any special distinction.
She is just another summer COM,
edy woman, a mother-mistress. or
mistress mother type who is
forced into the exasperating po-
sition of having to choose between
her rich, successful lover and her
socially callow 18-year-old son.
AS triangles go, this one is more
novel than most, but its sparkle
is dependent rather more on tim
ing than a summer company can
give it.
The play rises above its limita-
tions only when Olivia can be
demonstrated to be a remarkable
woman. She requires revelation as
beautiful opportunist, a woman
of rare social gifts who can handle
Evening star., 1949-09-06

100 British social lions at dis
tance, or one at arms length. Two
at the latter distance must strike
her as impossible, discovery that
is only reasonably funny as it is
made by Miss Holman.
RattiganS' situation and dia-
logue are cleverly enough stacked
against the two males as the play
was written, but the pair gains
stature in this Interpretation. Both
Donald Burr, as the middle-aged
suitor or Olivia, and Peter Fer
nandez, as the outraged son, ap-
pear far more at ease in their
roles than is good for the balance
of 20 Mistress Mine"
AS special exhibits go. however,
the play is not an unhappy choice
for closing Meridian Hills first
season. 1t certainly is in the
groove of laughable dilemmas that
humans fall into when they un-
dertake Xtra-curricular romance.
Moreover. no play all season got
off to more dramatic start.
