Wedding March" probably wins the prize, as it was shown in Europe in 34 reels. Paramount released only the first' 12 over here. ‘The Great Ziegfeld" is also a whopper, running over 20 reels, and Universal's first version of "Showboat” ran 16 reels. A European company once made a film called ‘The Mystery of the World” in 30 reels, but it was cut up into five pictures. "Greed," which Erich von Stroheim wanted to send out in 30 reels, was finally cut to 14. The road show version of ‘The Birth of a Nation” ran 203 minutes or about 17 reels. Another one who isn't figuring too far Into the future on affairs of the heart Is Julie Haydon, the blonde actress who battled out of the handicap of a type resemblance to Ann Harding to win a name for herself. On the set of "A Son Comes Home at Paramount, she told me she'd definitely given up the idea of marriage. She was to have been married last Christmas to that playwright, but they broke it oft before hand. She said they battled too much. Here and There in Movieland . . .

Shortly afterward there was a meeting between a member of the Pennsylvania delegation and Landon supporters. John D. M. Hamilton, Landon campaign manager, did not participate in either conference and he has consistently denied that such meetings were taking place. Both New York and Pennsylvania leaders have been balking at the Landon band wagon. If Hamilton’s estimate of hie candidate's first ballot strength is accurate the votes from New York alone probably would be sufficient to provide the 502 votes necessary to nominate, and on the {second ballot, at the latest. New York and Pennsylvania conferences with Lundonites followed the early week pledge of Connecticut’s delegates to the governor by J. Henry Roraback. national committeeman and an. outstanding member of the old 1 guard. Published reports of tentative platform planks under conslderation by Landon supporters included: 1. Labor relations const itutionial amendment or declaration of principle. 2. Provision for state compacts to obtain uniform laws regu-

The average reader has little conception of the amount of work required to furnish newspapers with pictures and stories on leading candidates in advance of the convention. Thousands of dollars were spent over a period of months obtaining pictures and data on leading candidates for the nomination. Complete sets of historical stories and pictures had to be sent out on such outstanding contenders as Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas, Col. Frank Knox, Senator Arthur Vandenberg and Senator Frederick Steiwer. Editors and writers had to be on their guard so that stories presented a true picture of the candidate without giving the impression that the material was propaganda sent out by political press agents. Then came the task of preparing to cover the convention itself. The various press services and major metropolitan newspapers had to make reservations for more than 1,000 writers, photographers and artists —more reservations than were needed for the official list of G. 0. P. delegates. This is what the average reader gets when he pays three cents for his home-town newspaper..
