He said the way to avert a collapse due tp a ‘‘prosperity built on postwar shortages, giveaways, debt and fear of Communism... . and the concentration of economic pow'er that, preceded thp depression of the *3o’s is to decentralize the big labor unions and the big corporations. Once the two giants are unscrambled, then the restoration of local control over local affairs in government, will be a simple •problem.

Fate Os 3-D Movies Is Beigg Pondered »■ Final Verdict From Public Is Awaited \ HOLLYWOOD, UP -) Will 3 D last? \The final verdict from the public in yet, but some doubters today think 2-D pictures will still be’ around, too, after Yhe smoke has cleared. Two months ago, Hollywood, its box office ailing from televisionitis, decided that what was wrong with movies was the photography, and proceeded to change the cameras and screens with the biggest fuss since sound came in. Studios switched either to 3-D, requiring Polaroid glasses, or wide-screen systems tha/t give an illusion of depth and do not require glasses. Now the town is settling down for better look, and apre arguing over 'Whether the gimmicks) are "cure-alls” "that will sweep the industry—or just temporary shots in the arm. , ( Some experts insist 3-D will be saved for “gimmick” pictures, such as mysteries, for as long as the public wants to wear glasses. The wide screens of Cinerama and Cinemascope, they say, are suited to biblical spectacles, musicals and westerns. But they claim dramas like “Cothe Back, Little Sfheba” and comedies like “The Promoter” or the Ma and Pa Kettle series should stick to conventional 2-D on, - perhaps, a screen slightly wider than usual. Some film critics point out that in &D,* Cinerama and Cinemaslcope, th4 of the motion picture—"montage,” or Cutting — Jls" virtually lost.£ 7 « By„ cutting from/ close-ups to long and medium shots, the 2-D director tells a story. The cutting establishes the “rhythm” and drama of the movie. But director Henry Koster achieved a “close«p” of Victor Mature in “The Robe” only by blurring the rest Os the giganiic Cinemascope sjereen completely'- out of focus. Writing and staging of fitais for Cjnerama and Cinemascope, directors and writers say, is more like that for the than for the motion picture. Paramount offered fene compromise when it showed a 2-D picture, “Shane.” on a screen-.plightly wider and more curved .than-usual. The press agreed the screen gave an illusion of depth yet did. not require glasses nor detract from the dramatic story. Foreign movie-makers are curi-

ous but skeptical. English sfudios don't plan to make any 3-D movies until they see the fats of, several! American Versions. * TV isn’t sleeping through thii furor among the palm trees. ‘ 1 Twentieth Century-Fbx has sfhtj it may sell its backlog of movies, to television, now that theaters are converting to v Cinemascope, Television engineers already are researching 2-D for Video. ! RCA officials recently, visited! .Warner Studio, reviving a year-old j rumor that NBC may buy that studio to film its own movies. ' 7- —h ' ' I Negro Attorneys Appeal Decision Uphold Segregation In Housing Projects WASHINGTON UP — Negro attorneys said today they will ap-, peal a feqeral court decision niP 1 - holding racial segregation In .public housing projects. The tes-i x-ase, started by 12 Negro families, deals with segregation in a Savannah, Ga.. project toward which the federal government is contributing $2,293,000. The suit Was brought against the public housing administyatioi) with the support of the national association for the advancement of colored people. It was designed t 0 cut federal funds unless the units were opened to Negroes. S: milar cases are pending in St. Louis and Detroit. Federal Judge Alexander Holtzoff ruled Tuesday thait under* the time-honored "separate but equa.l” dbetrine laid down by the supreme eburt in 1896 there is nothing wrong With requiring the separation of white and colored raees in pu housing. Earlier thi| year the NAACP asked the hifeh court to reverse the “separate; but equaf’ doctrine'in a series. of test cases dealing With segregation in public schools. A ruling on the school; cases is expected soon.
