m. with an extra performance Saturday night at 11 o'clock at the Strand theater, is a fllmlzation of the New York dramatic hit by the noted Italian playright, Luigi Pirandello, with dialogue con tluity by Gene Markey, George Fltzmaurice, who recently scored with his production of "Mata Hari," again directed Miss Garbo in "As You Desire Me." The star is supported by Melvyn Douglas, who made his film debut opposite to Gloria Swanson in "Tonight Or the celebrated character actor, Erich Von Stroheim; Owen Hedda Hopper, Rafaela Ot tiano, Warburton Gamble, Albert Oonti, William Ricciardl, and Roland Varno. In "As You Desire Me." Miss Garbo enacts the role of a temperamental Budapest eafe entertainer who is mistaken by an Italian nobleman for the wife whom he thought to have been killed by invaders during the World war. In order to escape the demands of a ruthless novelist who has a hypnotic influence over her. Garbo re solves to enact the bluff of the noble man's wife, a game which proves to be as dangerous as it is diverting.

The novelist stops at nothing in his at tempt to brine the erstwhile cabaret singer back into his power, and she 1 therefore forced to match her mas querade. The result is said to be the most adventurous. Intriguing and romantic drama in which the fascinating Swedish actress has yet been seen. As Is customary with Miss Garbo's pictures, studio officials spared no ex pense in equipping the production with suitable settings, of which one of the most ambitious is a picturesque outdoor scene filmed on the coast of the Pacific ocean. The scene repre sents the "Feast of Midsummer," cele brated by Italian lovers, and shows a fleet of tiny craft pushing out into the water to meet the rising sun.

The Budapest episodes and later sequences at a mafiMnt Italian villa are also said to be beautifully mounted. Beneath Two Churches William H.

Sir: Every one knows what happenings are taking place in Washington, and the cause which drew so many there. The bonus question, after all, is not a hard one to define for there is only one way out and that 4s to give the boys their just due and it would help in a great measure to alleviate suffering and the depression which now exists.

It would mean that the butcher, the baker, and the candle stick maker would be paid and they in turn would pay others, thereby putting money in circulation which is sadly needed. The bible says that "Man earns bread by the sweat of his brow" but how is he to make his brow sweat without any work and I can say truthfully that if every man had even a small amount coming into the home he would not be so ready to voice his sentiments, which he considers his Just due. Remember if America had not won the war, Germany perhaps would have asked for perhaps fifty five billion dollars and the bonus money, I imagine, would be only about two billion. The government is fine and I know that they feel tHat It would have been a keen disappointment to those who went to war and did not have an actual share in the fighting were preparing the battleground and the battle spirit; which only goes to prove how dear is their country and their flag and shall always be and every one 'who participated feel that they ROYAL NATIONAL EISTEDDFOD OF WALES 1932 AT PORT TALBOT ti 20,000 ton Cunardcr SCYTHIA Sails Thi Great LADIES!
