Lyon now holds a pilot’s license. Bebe Daniels and Gladys McConne) are the two most active air enthusiasts among the actresses. Both intend to fly their own planes soon. By Duane Hennessy (United Press Staff Correspondent) Hollywood, April S— (UP) —Just because talking pictures have come to Hollywood, apparently to stay, the numerous foreign sceen players in the colony have no reason to purchase one-way tickets to Europe. As a matter of fact, there is one producer at least who has gone so far as to give two of his foreign stars orders not to lose any semblance of their accents. “I, personally told Maurice Shevalier to take care in his associations with Americans here not to acquire the habit of speaking untinged •English.” Jesse L. Lasky, first vice-presi-dent In charge of production at Paramount said. “Chevalier’s accent is the conceted point in his charm,” he said of the Trench star. “I have also instructed Baclanova, the Russian actress, not to take English lessons. ‘Naturally, these foreign players cannot be cast as other than foreign charatcers, but their physical appearance usually makes this impractical anyway” In regard to the speaking of English when the locale is foreign, Lasky held that such had always been the license of the stagh so why not of the screen. The speaking screen, Lasky believes will make for more perfectly spoken English throughout the nation. ..‘‘l haven’t a doubt in the world that English will be aided nationally just as fashions have been, through the medium of pictures,” he explained. "The influence of the sceen is great—so great, in fact that if every actress would begin wearing long hair, bobbed hair would soon pass from vogue. “Correct English long has been spoken on the stage and has influence many, but the girls and boys who are the users of the worse forms rarely see stage plays but do go to motion pictures continually. They will benefit. “I am also positive that dialogue pictures will eventually accelerate an understanding of English in all countries' Lasky is author of the statement “It* is contained as much in the voice as in appearance. Fannie Brice is going to make an all talking picture for United Artists and will include plenty of singing. No title has been selected for the film. The story is being prepared by Billy Rose, well-known composer and writer. Incidentally, he is Miss Brice’s husband. Work on the picture is expected to start in June.
relations of which are less prejudiced, more friendly ami helpful than those between the two big republics on opposite sides of the ocean. The honest efforts of statesmen in both countries, coupled with the assistance of many humanitarians in America, have contributed much to bring this about; but so, too, have the splendid sporting and technical achievements in which Germans and Americans have met—big achievements which led to the ovations accorded the courageous ocean flyers in America and Germany alike and to that pioneer of airship travel. Dr. Hugo Eckener. Everywhere, in the fields of politics, business, technology and sports, both countries are facing each other as friends, nowhere as opponents. It is thus that the wounds which the war once inflicted can most readily am! by the past ten years which have suf swiftly he healed and forgotten A cheering light has been flashed on this disheartening, disappointing scene everywhere. ments for new wars are being piled up German and North American repubficed to dispel all bitter reminencences and misunderstandings between .the to the vanquished.
