GOVERNMENT

Sweden is a limited monarchy.
The cabinet is formally appoint
ed by the King in accordance
with the party situation in the
pOpularly-elected Parliament.
Though developed over a long
period, it was not until recent
years 1917-2D that Sweden's
parliamentary democracy was.
effected.
CONSTITUTION
The Swedes have no written
Magma Charta or Bill of Rights.
But this does not mean that the
Swedes have no protection. The
ancient paragraph 16 of the Swed-
ish Constitution Act has been
called "Sweden's Magma Charta".
1t guarantees to the individual
protection against aggression by
the ruling power and stresses the
duty of that power to act within
the boundaries of the law.
Civil liberties are stated in the
Constitution and in statute law
or are embodied in practice. The
Government and it's authorities
have the responsibility of safe
guarding these liberties.
Four laws or fundamental sta
tutes" from the true Constitu-
ton of Sweden: the Constitution
Act, 1909; the Organization of
Parliament Law, 1886; the Law
of Succession, 1910; the Freedom
of the Press Law, 1949.
Substituting the Press Law of
1912 new law received final ap-
prevail by the 1949 Parliament
1t u assures every citizen the
freedom to print or convey in
formation to another to be print
ed; p forbids censorship, even in
wartime; and, 81 outlaws confis-
cation of any publication, wartime
excepted.
Under the Constitution Act, a
balance of power setup allows the
King-in-Council (the Government)
to exercise executive and judicial
power and share legislative power
with Parliament. The latter is all
powerful in the sphere of public
economy; it alone can levy taxes
and control the national budget.
Parliament also directly controls
the Bank of Sweden and the ma
tional debt office.
The administration and budget
appropriation are watched by
State auditors, a special Parlia-
ment body.
Parliament's eight S t an din 6
committees land other special
ones) WELD great influence on ad-
ministration and policy formula
ton. All committees include men,
bers from both chambers. The
two most important are the budget
and constitutional committees.
Further control is welded by
the two Parliamentappointed pro-
curators general, one keeping an
eye on civil administration, the
other on military administration.

The comic notion supplied Miss
Main and Mr.. Kilbride in this
picture does have a certain degree
of novelty. The two play a pair
OF harrassed parents raising an
assortment Of what seems like
several dozen children in a ram

This Little Women" is the
handiwork of Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer and the studios sentiment
tai heart went completely into its
production. The top of the COM
pany's roster is picked clean to
provide June Allyson. Margaret
O'Brien, Elizabeth Taylor and
Janet Leigh for the March sister
roles.
Others in the cast include Peter
Lawford, Rosanne Brazzi dm-
ported from italy,, Mary Astor,
and Lucille Watson, names which
show M-G-M took its responsible
ities to heart in making this one.
Under the direction Of Mervyn
Leroy, they all fall nicely into
the spirit of the story. which re-
mains a rich, dramatic summary
Of the spirit that built America.
Il
It has been 16 years since Lit
tie Women's" last appearance on
4 the screen with Katharine Hep
burn in the 10 role now occupied
by Miss Allyson. The script has
not been changed much in the
1949 model. but production has
been. The March girls, their
house, their town and their ex-
periences are now done up In
Technicolor which Is more a rosy
reflection of the family's optimism
than Of the poverty in which 1t
lived. The varied wardrobes OF
10, Meg, Amy and Beth have
been frightened UP accordingly.
This makes their circumstances
look better than Miss Alcott in
tended. but not too damagingly.
Certainly this Little Women"
remains true in its accent on Miss
Allyson's 10. This is girl whose
heart runs wild and free. She
was born for leadership, but un-
fortunately as a member Of the
wrong sex. She sees life as a.
great, reckless adventure which IS
fine until she outgrows the TOM
boy phase and is forced to ac-
cept the repressed truths Of girl
hood. Even in this, she Is not
defeated, for II she cannot ply
sically lead others to the exciting
truths she knows, she can drive
the latter home in her books.
Miss Allyson's 10, which some
times catches an echo Of Miss
Hepburn's, is all the heroine any
movie has a right to ask.

In his awareness Of this, Director
Leroy has given his principal
actress as much freedom as she
desires. Nevertheless. he never
forgets that the total Of little
women in the story is four and
that the other three must make
themselves properly visible.
He counts on Miss OBrien to
make the gentle Beth. shy child
with an ever-present sense OF
death. almost as provocative OF
tears as 10 is the inspiration OF
gayety and laughter. Miss O'Brien

MYSTERY THRILLER
 OPENING TONIGHT

Murder with new twist, mystery that defies detection, suspense at it's highest pitch and goose pimples by the basket-full are all prom ised film fans when they see Para mounts Tear in the Night the Pine-Thomas chiller- thriller, at the 2Cth Century Theatre tonight. The veteran Paul Kelly, and rising new corners De Forest Kelley, Ann Dor an and Kay Scott, will be seen in the pictures most important roles.
 Screenplay writer Maxwell Shane, who also makss his directorial de- but with Fear in the Night, has scripted an intriguing and hair raising tale from an original story by William Irish.
 Unusual is mild word when used in connection with this eerie yarn of a man who murders and then can't remember why or when. Weird indeed is the final outcome, climaxing many spine -tingling epi- sodes in which the troubled mur- 5erer after unsuccessfully attempt ing suicide, enlists the aid of his detective brother-in Jaw and sets out to clear his soul.
