Lloyd c. Douglass famous 1.-THE
Robe" which still packs a punch
at the book stalls after 10 years
on the market, springs back into
the Hollywood news with the
rather soft-pedaled word that goth
Century-Fox has acquired the
screen rights for the religious best
seller from RKO.
Few great stories purchased for
pictures have had anything par
alleling the rugged experience OF
1.-THE Robe" in getting to the
screen. Jean Arthur's ex-husband,
Frank Ross. with a few cronies,
organized a buying syndicate
which acquired rights to the story
from the author for a sum said to
be in the neighborhood of $780,
900. Ross made a deal with the
then reigning regime at RKO for
its filming and, according to au-
thoritative reports, ran up half a
million dollars more in successive
story treatments which were
thrown out and in several false
production starts.
Unfortunately for Ross, his con-
tinued postponements crept up
into the disastrous area when the
foreign and domestic markets sud-
denly went into a tailSpin and
television hove on the gloomy
horizon. Then, too, Howard
Hughes bought RKO studio and
he displayed little for Ross ven-
ture.
Subsequently. Ross dropped out
of the movie field and nothing
more was heard of 1.-THE Robe
until its recent acquisition by 10th
Fox. It is understood that Daryl
F. Zanuck picked it up from RKO
for a song and that he will start
work on it himself in the fall,
hoping to make it gross even more
than David and Bathsheba."

An offensive spectacle has

tee of the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee has brought to an end
the brutal badgering OF an
American diplomat who had had
the temerity to ask for a hear
ing on the charge that he was
O Communist.
Last fall Louis Budenz, pro-
fessional ex-Communist. told
this committee that John Carter
Vincent was a Communist. For
two years Senator Joseph Nc
Carthy had been shouting that
Vincent was pro Communist"
The Senate subcommittee,
created and headed by Senator
Pat McCarran Of Nevada, ap-
peared happy to have this Com
firmation" by Budenz and
seemed prepared to let the mat
ter rest there. But Mr.. Vincent
said he would like to be heard
on the subject. After all, 1t was
his reputation, his career, per-
haps even his livelihood, that
was at stake. It was q long time
before he got his hearing, long
enough for the committee sta1
to prepare all the case 1t pos
sibly could find against him.
For what Mr.. Vincent dis
covered. once the hearings
three days secret and three and
one-half days public-began.
was that he faced a group de-
termined to find him guilty II
it could, not q group anxious to
do him Justice and to help him
clear his name, II it deserved
to be cleared. What he found
further was that the group was
putting him on trial for every
thing it doesn't like concerning
American Far Eastern policy,
regardless of whether he had
ever been q Communist or had
Communist sympathies.
One got the impression that
the committee intended to make
an object lesson Of Mr.. Vincent;
q warning to any other persons
accused by Budenz or Mccarthy
that it was better to let the ac-
cuSationS stand.

dent good advice and they hope
he will follow it. They are per-
fectly sure that they do not
need any more headaches than
they now have In the November

by the new chairman's willing

to give some light and leading

The question of an Ambas-
