Sergeants," plays Rhodes. Patri-
cha Neal plays the Arkansas
broadcaster who discovers him
behind bars, "invents" him as a
TV personality and subsequently
pays in pain for loosing him on
the country:
Griffith is an arresting figure
every inch Of the way. starting
as a mean vagrant Jailed for
drunkenness. A radio interview
brings a broadcasting job offer
and he agrees to give up the
vagabond life long enough to
try it. A shiftless. selfish. leche-
rous drunken bum of duty, he is
a kindly philosopher before the
microphone. He gets an early
taste Of the power he can WELD
and becomes fiendish addict of
lit.
The Kazan film is not solely
concerned with the personal story
of this callous egomaniac who
fooled most of the people for
some tins. 1t goes beyond him to
examine his effect on his audi
ence and the effect he almost
has on the country. This gives
it considerable dramatic bite.
In the early small town stages
the power welded by Lonesome
Rhodes is merely comic. He gets
the sheriff's yard filled with dogs
by telling the townsfolk they
had better test that boy to see
If he's a competent dog-catcher.
He fills his employers swim
ming pool with local urchins. by
inviting them out to enjoy the
hospitality.
"A Face in the Crowd" makes
some acidly comic comment. too,
on the commercial witchcraft
INDUCED in by advertising agen-
cies and networks. 1t pictures. at
one point, an emergency ses-
sion called by an account exc
cutive that is very funny spool
Of agency ritual.
"A Face in the Crowd" though
it is a dramatic entertainment
rather than a message, also does
some viewing of the networks
with alarm. That a man like
Lonesome Rhodes can throw his
power around with complete ir-
responsibility may not be good
but it is not disastrous. It is
something else when, at his
peak. he sets out to use his
power over his audience to aid
an iSolationist senator his
wealthy sponsor wants elected
President. His network seems to
have no objections.
1t is a sharp and clear dim
view that Kazan and Schulberg
take of this business of seeking
votes by making a candidate for
political Office a spurious TV
personality.
In "A Face in the Crowd" 1t
doesn't happen. but Lonesome is
coming dangerously close at the
time of his abrupt downfall.
J Mr.. Kazan has exaggerated.

Funds
Again Iiqhtened
By the Associa led Press

The supply of money for home
loans has been frightened further
by a reduction in the amount the
Governments mortgage buying
agency will pay for mortgages
bearing As per cent interest.
The Federal National Mortgage
Association cut by half point
the price it will pay for as pei
cent mortgages backed by either
the Veterans Administration or
the Federal Housing Administra-
ton.
This will tend to discourage
banks and other lending institu-
tons from selling As per cent
mortgages to FNMA so they can
obtain funds to make further
loans to home builders and
buyers.
5 Pct. Rate Unchanged
The action does not affect the
price F'NMA will pay for FHA-
insured mortgages at the S per
cent rate recently put into ef-
feet.

however, FNMA's purchase price
will henceforth range from 95.S
to 1915 points-$95.5O to 500. So

The range had been 90 to "a.
The purchase range for S per
cent mortgages remains 99.5 to|
97.5.
J. Stanley Baughman, FNMA
president. said the new purchase
prices are within the range of
prevailing prices" in the second
airy mortgage market.
The supply of mortgage money
available at As per cent has been
shrinking for some months and
the latest action was seen as
curtailing even further the
amount which can be tapped att
this interest rate.
Interest Raise Asked
At present VA-guaranteed
home loans are the only type be-
ing written at as per cent inter-
est. And the administration has
asked Congress to raise this
maximum interest charge to s.
per cent, to correspond with the
FILA rate and encourage lenders
to make more VA loan money
available.
The House Veterans Affairs
Committee yesterday heard tes-
timony from a mortgage banker
that unless the VA rate is in
creased, the program will die.
This view was expressed by
