"Don't say I told you, but the arrival of one of the most famous cowboy heroes of the silent movie era at the World's Fair will result in the breaking up of one of the most publicized romances of the year" "Dear Hy," writes Restauranteer Arnold Reuben "The difference between America and other nations is that over here when a citizen criticises the Government, they shoot his picture not him!" steps in the growth of the movies, the film shows scenes from 24 original features that marked the beginning of each new phase in the development of the motion picture as an art and as an Industry. Beginning with the first films depicting plotless Incidents, the March of Time shows the now historic May Irwln-John C. Rise kiss scene that amazed and scandalized audiences back in 1898. The film next shows scenes from "The Great Train Robbery" of 1903, which was produced for Thomas Edison and represented the first fledging attempt to tell a story in motion pictures. The year 1915 is well marked in motion picture history, according to the March of Time, for it was in this year that David Wark Griffith released his mighty spectacle, "The Birth of a Nation" a film that made the movies established entertainment and gave them an aura of respectabfjlty.

In 1921?" Rex Ingram's "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" launched Rudolf Valentino on his short and brilliant career as the greatest romantic idol of screen's history and in the following year comedian-acrobat Douglas Fairbanks gave the elaborate costume spectacle a permanent place in motion pictures with his performance in ''Rot in Hood." The year 1925 brought the silent motion picture to a new peak of dramatic power, the March of Time shows with scenes from "The Big Parade," and one of the last great silent films was "Flesh and the Devil," starring John Gilbert and Greta Garbo With the coming of sound, many foreign stars were either forced out of American motion pictures or made to learn the English language, as Garbo did. For with one sound picture, the silent film was forever obsolete. New Humor Next Music Hall Film Proves Movie Comedy Matured Hall For the new coming-of-age of the motion picture comedy, the public gets the credit.

This new adulthood of the comedy, according to Hall, operates to eliminate slapstick, and to substitute fundamentally sound plots, progressing, by virtue of this public-Indicated change, to a higher plane, upon which they will gain their biggest laughs from authentic suspense built on story situations and char- acterlzatlon. "Cycles," said Hall, "are as old as motion pictures. We Inherited them trom the stage.

They depend, primarily, on public reaction to new productions. Periodically, certain types of drama or comedy and all their variants such as the overworked succession of 'crackpot' comedies of a few months ago pall on the public. This is clear In bos office returns. Then the pendulum swings in the opposite direction." Comparing the early screen com edies primarily a succession of gags," strung on a flimsy network of story, and their successors, in which the pictures depended largely for their alughs on more or less po lite assault and battery as mutually practiced by the male and female stars, with the more sophisticated comedy as exemplied in "Good Girls Go to Paris," he said that the adroitly balanced situations and deftly-drawn characterizations of the picture are sufficiently laugh- provoking without benefit of dragged-in "gags" or the more frivolous phases of mayhem. This Is not to imply, however, that Hall is against the "gag" in Itself.

Warner, vice president of Warner Brothers Pictures, has completed negotiations on a new deal under which James Cagney signs a new long-term contract with the film company. The new agreement replaces the present Cagney contract, which expires next October. In commenting upon his new contract, Cagney said: "I am indeed happy to remain with a studio which Is consistently producing significant pictures.

In my opinion, Warner Brothers are making more progress than any other studio in the filming of adult, timely subjects. From the standpoint of the actor, the company's courageous exploration of new story fields is clefi- should therefore prolong his career Under his new contract Cagney will probably be cast as John Paul Jones In a story dealing with the career of the great naval commander. Cagney today begins work on his new picture "The Roaring Twenties," by Mark Helllnger, a dramatic underworld story, With Priscilla Lane and Humphrey Bogart. lyn redhead who has the feminine in Paramount's "Beau Geste," was completely absent from her parly pictures at Warner Bros. She wasn't discouraged.

Editors at the Goldwyn studios cut sharply into the share of footage originally allotted Geraldine Fitzgerald in "Wutherlng Heights." Yet she left for Ireland a few days ago with praise ringing In her ears and a comfortable Warner contract hidden In the bottom of her trunk. Tyrone Power got used to not see-lug himself in his early pictures. The M-G-M cutting rooms were once deep in the dicsarded face of Stanley Morner, who made innumerable tests there to keep Nelson Eddy in line. Now, as Dennis Morgan in "Waterfront," he gets his lull share of screen attention. Richard Greene's dimples, now reserved for the best customers, ued to be trampled under foot.

Only recently did Wayne Morris rate more than casual attention from the film snippers. Ann Sheridan was also a cutting room discard more often than not until recently. Now, as the "Oomph Girl," she will be more carefully Prod by Warners, and Walter Wanger, to whom she was lent for "Winter Carnival." Humphrey Bogart claims that If all nls eliminated scenes were glued together no one would care especially but the cutters would have difficulty untangling their feet from his face. The cutting room floor is not the end of hope nor the harbor of despair. It's Just a training ground for young hopefuls whose names and faces may be familiar to one and all one of these days.

She is preparing now for another picture, "Boycott," with Alan Hale, and she has been announced for a Matured role in "Beethoven," opposite Paul Muni.

Marjorie Weaver's pretty face littered up Warner cutting rooms for several months as she was scissored out of negatives there. Now she rates star billing with 20th Century-Fox and her pictures are "cut to her," not "cut around her." Uncounted miles of film carrying the likenesses of Bette Davis were turned over to the silver reclaimers bv Universal studios during that young woman's early days in pictures.
