Practically all of them are still
doing title work, but not as
corporations.
Ostensibly, the order was
aimed at the practice which the
association charged had existed
at some companies of having
non-attorneys prepare legal
papers such as deeds, mortgages
and title transfers.
However, at least one title
firm has gone out of business
because its erstwhile officers,
who are attorneys, said they
understood the Bar Association
order prohibited them from
operating a title company.
The owner of another title
firm, who is not an attorney,
has stopped operating indeDend-
emily and is doing title work for
law firm.
Although Bar Association of
ficials refused to comment, it
was learned that the order was
issued about three months ago
and was reaffirmed at the or
ganization's meeting last Thurs
day. At that time, Edward L.
Foster, chairman of the Com
mittee on Unauthorized Practice
of Law, was instructed to seek
court action against any non
attorney preparing legal papers.
Such a practice, according to
nm association member, cOnsti.
tutes the practice of law and is
In violation of the law.
The member, who asked that
his name be withheld, empha-
sized the order was not intended
to prevent lawyers from dictat-
ing the contents of deeds, con.
tracts, mortgages and similar
papers to their secretaries.
He explained, however, that
in some title companies, busy
lawyers would permit clerks to
actually draw up the papers
and the clerks then sit in on
conferences with the attorneys
client and explain the contents
of the documents.
The discontinuance of all title
company advertising came as a
result of the associations
pointed reminder that it is I'M
ethical for attorneys to adver-
tise, the association member
said.
The firm which has gone out
of business was the Atlantic
Title & Investment Co., 1925
Colesville rd., Silver Spring.
Kelley Literal, an attorney and
former secretary Oh the COM
pany, said he is not accepting
any title business.
1--WE understood when the
Bar Association order came out
that we should stop operating
a title company" he said. "It
has hurt US economically but
we hope the law business will
pick up to take care of it,"
However, F. Archie Meatyard,
jr., of the Lawyers Title Co. of
Montgomery County. 4641 Mont
gomery ave-, Bethesda, said he
is still doing tile work.

tisement taken out of the tele.

Yesterday at the Apex Theater. |
: One-at arg rate this one
Is not quite sure what Alum Fall
coner's screenplay is driving at
below the exciting surface of
his melodrama. 1t could be
something big, like the desper-
ate need Of all humans for SYM
pathetic understanding. This is
certainly implicit in some of
the dramatic details of the mar
rative which deals with quite
a croSS-section of humanity !
with an arresting candor. =
Actually, whether the film is
trying to say anything so ex-
plcit is unimportant. 1t is well
made and deals with one of
those stories which make page
one SO engrossing when some
one spends hours threatening
to Jump off the top ledge of a
tall hotel.
y %*
The film opens with a nice
looking, intelligent chap waking
out of a nightmare and quickly
turning the entire place into
one.
One of the neighbors, a pal
lid male, assumes it is a case
for the police. Once the latter
have arrived. and set to work
by their methods, it turns out
that the other tenants have a
wide variety of different opin-
ions as to how Che affair should
be handled.
They bicker among them
selves, and with the police,
quite often dramatically but
not always without a touch of
tedium. The question on which
this wide and revealing variety
of argument turns is whether
the young man should be shot
down by the police or talked
into quiet surrender by one of
his understanding co-tenants.
Thanks to the suspense with
which THE Man Upstairs" has
been directed, the moviegoer
finds himself rather constantly
engrossed over the pictures
hour and one-half distance.
1t is a cast of quite COM
petent secondary film perform
erS that dominates the active |
scene of The Man Upstairs.
It's best and most sympathetic
performance is that given by
Dorothy Alison as the attrac-
tive co-tenant of the madman
who risks her life to save his.
Other effective portraits are
those Of Donald Houston as
the mental welfare society man
who has a distaSte for police !
methods; Bernard Lee as the
aggressive police inspector;
Richard Attenborough as the
young scientist whose mind
cracks to cause all the furore;
and Charles Houston as the
beatnik type young artist
whose heart proves to lie some
where between one of gold and
one of flint.
In an unpretentiouS, subdued
English way, THE Man Up
stairs" has some intriguing
things to say about human ma
ture and such of its social in
! struments as police and fire
departments, etc.

NUMISMATIC NOTES
South Sea Shilling

It is not unusual for Eng
lish coins of the 18th century
to carry an indication of the
source of the bullion used
for the issue. The illustrated
coin is a shilling of George
I. The initials SSC on the re-
verse mean that the bullion
came from the South Sea
Company.
This brings to mind the
South Sea Bubble, probably
the most disastrous stock
promotion ever conceived by
man. 1t was suggested by
Daniel Defoe, author of Rob-
inson Crusoe, who said that
if the state would sell trad
ing monopolies to a private
company, the money could
be used to reduce the nation
al debt.
Many rich English mer-
chants took over more than
$50 million worth of the debt
in exchange for trading mo-
nopolies in South America
and the Pacific Islands.
Stock in the venture rose
from 12812 to more than
1000 in less than seven
months.
When imitators started
forming similar companies
the result was a wild rush
for speculation. In 1921 the
South Sea Bubble burst. With

First Photographic Film
Added to Russian Claims

In an article on profess
sional photography in Russia
in the August issue Of U. S.
Camera, Assistant Prof. e.
Yofis of the All-Union State
Institute Of Cinematography
claims that a Russian in
vented flexible Photographic
film prior to George East
man. Prof. Yofis states,
without giving any date,
that Il. Boldyrev showed a
flexible film at the All-Russia
Industrial Exhibition in Mos
COW a few years before the
Eastman Kodak Co. began to
produce a similar material"
Eastman obtained a patent
for the American Film:
Sensitive stripping paper
used in plate cameras with
a rollfilm adapter in 1884.

Mcintyre Is Named
PSA Journal Editor

Robert L. Mcintyre, Chi
cago Photographic writer and
editor, has been named editor
Of the monthly Journal Of the
Photographic Society Of
America.
Mr.. Mcintyre was formerly
managing editor of Popular
Photography. and for eight
years wrote a weekly syndi-
Gated column of Photographic
news for newspapers.
He is a fellow Of PISA. a
member of the Society of
Motion Picture and Televi-
sion Engineers, and of the
Society of Photographic
Scientists and Engineers.
Evening star., 1960-07-03

In 1889, H. Reichenbach, a
chemist in Eastman Kodak,
obtained a patent for a
transparent flexible base
which eliminated stripping
and enabled amateurs to de-
velop their own films.
The Russian claim, like
many of their other I'VE in
vented" statements, is un-
founded and not recorded
anywhere in the history of
Photographic achievements.
In another claim. Prof.
Yofis states that another
pioneer of Russian pho
Biography, D. YeSuchevsky,
designed a stereoscopic cam
era as far back as the 1905.
Sir David Brewster perfected
the first stereoscopic appa-
ratus with two lenses in

Why Santa Fe Shrine
Differs on 2 Stamps
BY BELMONT FAIRIES
star Stamp Editor

For collectors who have
been wondering why the
Palace of the Governors
looks so different on the new
1H-cent stamp and the 1946
Kearny commemorative,
Frederic Uhlig of New Alex
andria has an answer.
Source of the design for the
Kearny stamp. he learned
from the Library Museum of
New Mexico, was an illus
tration of the Santa Fe
shrine by DR.. Kenneth Chap
man for Ralph E. Twitchell's
History of the Military Oc-
cupation of the Territory of
New Mexico"
When he prepared the il
lustration in 1909 DR.. Chap
man was not living i'll Santa
Fe. His sketch was drawn
partly from memory of The
Palace as it had looked early
in the century and partly
from imagination.
In 1909 the old adobe cap
ital became a museum. 1t
was strengthened and re-
stored to it's original and
much simpler form.
A photograph of the build
ing as it stands today was
used for the new IA cent
stamp. 1t shows the Palace
very much as it looked in
1846 when the United States
force under Gen. Stephen
Watts Kearny occupied d
Santa Fe during the Mexican
War.

TRY NIGHT COLOR

Going to Niagara Falls, or
other pictorial travel spots
that may be floodlighted by
night? Try shooting it in
color. For white fioodlighting
at its brightest, use indoor
type color film and the fol-
lowing suggested exposures:
f/4.5 for 80 seconds. For
light colors, try 10. 20 and
40 seconds at f/2. Deep
colors can generally be re-
corded at go seconds with an
opening of f/2. If these ex-
posures do not give the ex-
pected results (people's tastes
vary) try experimenting with
other speeds and lens open
ings. After a few tryS you
will hit the combination that
suits you best.
