ley Faber, gizboreh; Audrey
Cornfield, publicity chairman;

Strange and tense drama unfolds in this scene in "Pastor Hall," starring
Wilfrid Lawson and now showing at the .... Theatre. The film is being
presented by James Roosevelt and is released dull United Artists.

James Roosevelt saw "Pastor
Hall" for the first time with his
mother, Eleanor Roosevelt. When
the picture was over they were
both greatly impressed. For awhile
neither spoke, and then Mrs.
Roosevelt said:
"Jimmy, if you don't present
that picture I'm going to my-
self."
Jimmy had already made up
his mind, and "Pastor Hall" is to
he his first presentation as an
independent producer releasing
through United Artists. Based on
the play by the late Ernst Tol-
ley, "Pastor Hall" is an anti-
Nazi film whose plot derives from
the experiences of Pastor Martin
Niemoeller, who was imprisoned
by Hitler for opposing the tenets
of Nazism.
It took no urging by Jimmy
to convince his mother to speak
a foreword to the picture. The
text was written by Robert E.
Sherwood, and Mrs. Roosevelt was
filmed reading the foreword in a
studio in the East.
The foreword follows:
"I am glad to introduce this
motion picture because I believe
it tells a story of most vital
importance to all of us. It is a
story that is true — tragically
true—a story of the insidious
growth of the spirit of hatred,
intolerance and suppression of lib-
erty which is now sweeping over
the face of this earth.
"The leading character in this
picture is a simple man of God,
a man whose life is devoted to
the fundamental Christian prin-
ciples of faith, hope and charity.
He is the same kind of minister
that you and I have known and
loved—in Vermont, in Tennessee,
in Oregon—in every community,
large or small, where men and
women are free to worship God
in their own way.

"To me this picture carries a
message of inspiring truth. It is
deeply encouraging. For the story
of Pastor Hall, of his undying
faith, his unconquerable courage—
is the story of all men who love
freedom and justice so deeply
that they are prepared to live
eternally for their convictions. In
such men is the hope of common
humanity, the greatest hope for
our selves and our children."
"Pastor Hall," which Roose-
velt will present beginning on
Nov. 8, as a United Artists re-
lease at the Town Theater, in
the former Orchestra Hall, Wood-
ward and Orchestra Place, has in
its starring east Wilfrid Lawson,
Nova Pilbeam, Seymour Hicks
and Marius Goring.
