Leave all that to the romantic and ignorant Americans, who happen to be, like myself, blond, and six feet high. What there is, and probably always will be during one epoch, is the solid fact that out of every hundred persons, only five at most will be capable of making decisions and giving di- rections Whether the five are called Nordics or blond beasts, or simply bosses, does not matter a scrap.

NIGHT EDITOR: WILLIAM G. FERRIS Court Costs Are Too High .. . T HE INADEQUACY of our present legal system in civil cases was strikingly brought out recently when it was report- ed that a New York man spent three years and incurred costs of $3,000 in a law suit to recover overcharges made by a telephone company total- ling $5.40. The victory was entirely a moral one. Business is beginning to turn more and more away from litigation in the courts as the costs mount higher and higher. Open book accounts are carried for months by firms that cannot collect their bills because "the legal costs of a law suit to force collection would be more than the amount of the bill," as many business men will aver. Lawyers themselves proclaim with pride that they are preventing litigation more and more these days, settling many of their cases out of court. What does not come to light is that the settle- ment out of court is often grossly unfair to the man who cannot afford attorney's fees, while it favors the man who is well equipped to wage a legal battle. If the courts can arrive at a just decision, they ought to be used more, and it ought to be the duty of the lawyers to encourage the use of the courts by insisting on a reduction of court costs. By so doing, they would in the long run increase their amount of business and hence their fees, aside from the benefit which the change would work in the relations between business men.

Liberty of the III I MNXM Screen* Reflections AT THE MAJESTIC ** "SONS OF THE DESERT" With Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy NO STARS "KEEP 'EM ROLLING" Benny .................. Walter Huston The two inimitable comedians are back again. They are not Arabians but are instead ultra-hen- pecked husbands of two shrews they have learned to call wives. Determined to keep their solemn fraternal oath to attend their national convention at Chicago, they bribe a veterinarian to prescribe a trip to the South Seas as a cure. They get to the windy city, fooling their wives. Messrs. Laurel and Hardy are funny and the audience's reception was hearty and vociferous. A thin plot ,old situations, plenty of slap-stick, and a bag full of bad puns all contribute to what we Americans like and call humor. The fact that these, films have a drawing power substantiates our edu- cators accusations against us that we have a cul- tural lag. "Keep 'Em Rolling" is frank propaganda of the old destructive war machine as it gathers momen- tum in its malicious attempt to arouse us to a blind frenzy of war preparedness and the glorifica- tion of brass buttons. This propaganda is a bad job because one easily recognizes it as such. Walter Huston's acting is bad in his unsuccessful attempt to portray the character of a silly and emotionally childish soldier who lives, sleeps, and eats with his pet horse. The theme is obviously to show us what a paradise it is to be a soldier. A series of disjointed sequences beginning in 1915 and carrying us to the present time constitute the film's poor continuity. The producers of this film (Radio) tried to disguise the real theme by an in- sistent harping on the love old Benny had for his horse. In these trying times every art should be utilized to secure world peace and economic secur- ity. Films of this type serve only to aggravate the situation and are destructive to the peace every- one desires. One's refusal to see such a film will make it a financial failure and will discourage others of its calibre from being produced. -J.C.S.

Prokofieff MARY SPAULDING, for her graduation recital tomorrow night in the School of Music Audi- torium, has a program covering the chronological range of literature, besides containing works that are unusual and infrequently heard. The Bach Toccata, for instance, is little known; it was an experiment in form and rhythms, the adagio in the last movement, particularly, with its "rubato- like feeling in tempo." The Burnt Rock Pool is, of course, American in source and inspiration, the re- sult of a trip in the North. The Prokofieff will be done in a serious vein, rather than a satirical one. as a thing for its own sake, rather than as a parody of eighteenth century forms.
