today. tatlon of the Russian government, Mr. Everson delivered a series ol lectures to the leading architects and engineers of the UB.S.R. four years ago in Moscow. Comfort and Color Uppermost Two ideas were in mind in re- designing the Strand.

Mr. Everson said today. First and foremost was the desire to help people forget the worries and practicalities of the workaday world. There must be a maximum of comfort and eye ap- he said. In the second place, was the determination to make the new Strand completely different.

Mr. Everson explained that colors seen in daylight 'are entirely dif- ferent when seen under artificial light. It is the.same principal that causes make-up that is garish in sunlight to appear beautiful back o- the footlights. The colors that may look too brilliant in daytime are ultra-beautiful at night. The Strand will not be anything like its 'old self when it tomorrow.

Mr. Everson paid tribute, by the way, to the local labor en- gaged for the big remodeling Job.
