Mrs. Lincoln Is Central Character In Drama Developed By Two Groups In New York By TOM LOY NEW July Experimental Theatre, set up by Actors' Equity and the Dramatists' Guild, appeared extinct during the past season but has suddenly sprung back to life at the Shubert. The play presented would seem. after revisions based on this experience, to be quite suitable for a run. That it is in a state of growth is clearly shown by a last- minute title change.

Author Paul Horgan called his script for a time "Death, Mr. line hurled from the lips of John Wilkes come aboard. They have been instructed by Stanton to act harshly in the capitulation, to prepare the ground for a dictatorship from which democracy in the soutii can never rise. The War Secretary's power has forced the President to give lip service to this arrangement, but there on the boat he stealthily reverses himself.

But the emphasis, it has been found, should be on the martyr rather than the murderer; so the piece was finally re-christened with the words of that famous signature, "Yours, A.

Lincoln." To me the most thrilling page in American history is the one that records, those human and far-sighted terms of surrender allowed by Grant at Appomattox. This play presents a theory as to what may have been behind that heart-warm- Mr. and Mrs. James Welch, of North Wales, were the weekend guests of their son-in-law and daughter. Dr.

There are other scenes not so movingly executed, hinting: that Booth was employed by the Secretary and his Congressional colleagues. In one of them Mr.

Horgan adroitly builds his bridge between then and now by having the President say that we propose to win not only this war but also the peace that follows. A similar attempt was made, with Versailles as a focus, in the recent drama "In Time To Come;" but the effort is far more successful here because Lincoln can touch our feelings where Wilson could only address ing: event.
