KING AS PILOT STEEPS BRITAIN THROUGH CRISIS Hand of George V Is Seen on Policies of His Statesmen. Thi* Is the first of a series of four artirle* by If U. Perry. I nited Press Correspondent at London, dertln* utth thr personality of Kin* Gror** V of Great Britain. It is su**e*tfd that this aerie* be filed for use in event of hi* death. BY 11. L. PERCY t nitrd Pres* Staff Correspondent LONDON. March 6.—His majesty, Kins? George V of Great Britain, is the pilot steering the British ship of state through the economic crisis. It is his hand that has guided the policies of his leading statesmen, and his decision that has ended indecision. This is the consensus, gleaned by a canvass of politicians, based on the epochal events since the downfall of the Labor government in 1931. Officialdom probably would deny that the king has had a finger in its pie, for, constitutionally, he is neutral. But there have been unmistakable evidence of the royal touch. Perhaps the outstanding example of this royal power is the behind-the-scenes story of the formation of the national government. When the Labor cabinet split and fell, in 1931, over the question of unemployment insurance, Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald went to Buckingham Palace and tendered his resignation. Disregards Precedents According to precedent, and on MacDonald's advice, the king should have invited the Conservative leader, Stanley Baldwin, or Arthur Henderson, a.s head of the largest Labor faction, to form anew government. King George did neither. Disregarding all precedent, he asked MacDonald to try to form another cabinet. Whether or not a coalition was his suggestion is hard to say, but there is no doubt that it met with his approval. This is seen by the fact that when MacDonald found himself faced with difficulties in obtaining the cooperation of the other parties, King George summoned the prime minister and Baldwin to the palace, together with the Liberal leader, Sir Herbert Samuel. The story goes that he told them very plainly—and the king is known for his blunt, sailorly language—that the matter was urgent and must not be delayed. He gave them an hour to make up their minds. Within that hour the government was formed. Shows Intense Interest King George was aware of the seriousness of the situation just before the suspension of the gold standard in September, 1931. Many were the talks he had with his close friends, including Lord Lee of Fareham, the millionaire philanthropist, and Admiral of the Fleet, Lord Jellieoe, in which he expressed his anxiety. There is no doubt that he was advised of and fully approved the suspension of the gold standard. Never before has the king shown such an intense interest in the daily occurrences of dominion, foreign and home policy. He must have established a record for the number of ministers and others summoned to audiences during the past year. Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald rushed to and fro from the palace to 10 Downing street, advising the king on every phase of his cabinet-forming. He called there more than once during the recent passage of notes between the United States and Britain over payment of war-debt instalment on Dec. 15. The king's approval was desirable, if not strictly necessary, for all four British notes. Approves Foreign Policies The king was interested in the Ottawa conference, and had special reports of its proceedings, besides holding lengthy conferences with Baldwin and his party upon their return. He also was consulted when Britain took the historic step from free-trade to protection, although since parliament had passed the tariff bill, he was bound by the constitution to approve it. At the same time. King George has Interested himself in, and has more than a layman's knowledge of, India's fight for independence, the Anglo-Free State dispute, and. more recently, the Anglo-Persian squabble. It is certain that he approves Britain's policy at Geneva, both at the disarmament conference, and in the Sino-Japanese question. The king has no politics, although being in (he ranks of the capitalists he might be thought to have Conservative leanings. Whatever is his private opinion, and it is known that MacDonald is a favorite of his, he never has shown it when, either by power of his position, or through sheer personal interest, he has taken an active hand in the government of his people. EX-CONVICT IS HELD ON ASSAULT CHARGE Attack Attempt Laid to Man by Young City Woman. Harry Melton, 43. of 329'- North Pine street, ex-convict, today faces charges of attempted criminal assault, carrying concealed weapons and vagrancy following his arrest Sunday night five minutes after he is alleged to have attempted to assault a woman in a downtown alley.

Burglar Suspects Caught Red-Handed in Grocery

Pair Seized by Police in Answer to Hurry-Up Radio Call. Responding to a radio call early today, a police squad headed by Lieutenant Leo Troutman captured two alleged burglars in a Standard grocery at 654 Blake street. Charges of burglary were placed against Claude Peck, Negro, 29. of 837 Colton street, and Edward Barber. Negro. 19. of 729 Douglas street. Both men waived examination before Municipal Judge Clifton R. Cameron today and were bound to the grand jury under bonds of $2,500 each on burglary counts. Police said a blanket had been spread on the floor and a pile of meat, groceries and canned goods was nearby. Glass in the front door had breen broken. James Wells, 702 Blake street, called police when he heard the glass break. He said two other Negroes waited outside the store, but fled before police arrived. One of three men seen running from a Kroger grocery at 717 East Twenty-fifth street late Sunday night was captured and is being held on a vagrancy charge. Buffin Albernathy. Negro, 18. of

So New, and So Fresh! Even House Office Building Elevator Men Take New Congressmen for Ride. P.y Bciipys-ffotcard Xctctpap-r Alliance WASHINGTON, March 6.—A1l forecasts on the freshness of new young Democratic members of the house have been borne out. So have predictions that they would soon be “taken for a ride” on something more than congressional elevators. Ironically enough, it was the operator of the house elevator running from the floor chamber to the subway connecting with the house office winning, who first put several of these ebullient youngsters in their place, i Vi of . wllat more infll icntial people may yet do to them, they should have taken warning, but not they. Their caucus, called to voice their demands for place and power, was a comical performance.

' My good man, ’ said one newcomer to the aforesaid elevator! operator, “where is Mr. Rainey's office?” The operator, who is a crusty! Georgia Democrat of indeterminate age—he is sensitive about his years —growled out that he didn't know. To all subsequent questions concerning other members’ offices he also shook his head in the negative. The freshman detected hostility and exploded. “You mean to tel! me,” he. broke out. "that you’re drawing pay around here, and don’t know 7 where the leaders are? I’ll take care of you after March 4.” “Listen, young fellow 7 ,” replied the Georgian. “I'm hired to run the elevator, not to answer questions. And I’ll tell you something I’ve been here before you came, and I’ll be here after you're gone.” Will Rogers—the Oklahoma congressman, not the conscious humorist— apparently has assumed leadership of the freshman bloc. If only because of his name, which gives him a sort of reflected glory, he is getting lots of publicity. And he scents to enjoy it. Their movement to obtain unusual acclaim so soon has not been a complete success, however. More cautious newcomers protest against any action which may promote discord, and only half the group attend their first caucus' So they probably will make more noise than anything else. Thej** soon get used to back seats and tailend committee assignments. PLAN SUMMER SCHOOL Professor George F. Leonard Will Direct Butler Hot Weather Term.

Dr. Donald Laird, psychologist, studied a large number of couples from Who's Who and found a higher percentage of couples with these age differences gave confidential reports that they were happy than where the difference in ages was greater. However, no man in his senses selects his wife according to a statistical “curve,” because such curves always run zigzag. And a woman much older or younger might be just the zig he was looking for, and then, again she might prove to be his zag.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

PRICE INFLATION; FORECAST WITH ‘CRISISMONEY’ Substitute for Cash May Be Spur: Can Be Controlled by Government. BY HERBERT LITTLE Tim** Staff Writer WASHINGTON, March 6.—The Roosevelt bank order today put in motion the greatest effort ever made for an entirely new overnight system of “substitute money.” The chief question of the poli-j ticians and experts here is: Will it bring price inflation? If so, how much? The answer lies in whether prices will rise at once in relation to the new clearing-house certificates ! which are to be issued by banks in | place of the usual currency. It is deemed possible they will rise, offsetting some of the calamitous fall of prices that has made the “dei fiated” dollar so “dear”—hard to g The degree of inflation, if it comes, is controlled in this case, because I of the limits of the bank deposits upon which the certificates are based. Some Fear of Hoarding Another major question put by money experts is: Will “Gresham's law” operate? This is the economic truism that “bad money drives out good money,” that is, that when a i currency not backed by gold begins | to circulate, people hoard their gold money, or gold-backed money, and put into circulation, by spending, their new money, backed by what is not deemed so valuable a security. The banks under President Roose- ! velt’s order are not permitted to pay | out the old currency, or legal tender I —bank notes, federal reserve notes, gold and silver certificates—but nearly seven billion dollars’ worth of this sort of currency now is in circulation, much of it hoarded already. The unique quality of the Roosevelt emergency plan lies in its scope. Clearing-house certificates have j been used many times in place of money in past United States bank operations, and in 1907 such “certificates of deposit.”—merely showing that the bank depositor had the money on deposit in a bank—were widely circulated. Saved Small Towns They were credited with being the salvation of small towns and rural areas in a time of currency starvation. In 1907 also “pay-checks payable to bearer” were widely used, but in all cases these issuances of money substitutes were local. In earlier financial crises, notably several times during the Civil war period, bank loan certificates were used in place of cash to even up accounts among banks which cashed each other’s checks. This function now is carried out by the federal reserve system, created in 1913. But the need at the present time is for a medium to permit the circulation of all or part of the $42,000,000,000 in bank deposits. Ordinarily, this circulates by continued transfer of approximately $5,500,000,000 in currency, mostly bank notes and other legal tender paper. Measure Is Temporary One Now, however, a large percentage of this amount has been hoarded, or drawn out by depositors to meet emergencies. The result is a dearth of currency, and the total amount of gold-backed currency in circulation mounted to $7,000,000,000 a few 7 days ago. Even then the withdrawals came too fast, and the banks had to restrict or close down. Use of such “substitute money” as deposit certificates admittedly is a temporary measure. It's net effect j will be to enable essential functions I of life and labor to be carried out. I It will be used for pay rolls, grocery | bills, rent. It probably will have a | rapid turnover. Banks permitted by the treasury I to issue these certificates ajso will, l of course, operate checking accounts. That is, only in return for a check or other order will the banks issue these certificates. Presumably the issuance will be limited to the sound assets of the bank, which will pay out in the long run, in the government’s estimation. Bank credits outstanding in recent years have averaged round $45,000,000,000. and our entire national economy has operated on this and the approximately $5,000,000,000 of currency. This issuance of the new substitute money is expected to release a huge volume of this bank credit. JAMES E. ELLIS DIES Last Rites Held Today for 42-Year Resident of City.

Majolica Ware of Rare Beauty Made by Americans in Nineteenth Century

Art Originated by Saracen Craftsmen Became Popular in U. S. BY MRS. C. O. ROBINSON IN the study and acquisition of the early American glassware, pottery and china, one is impressed with the beauty and desirability of the nineteenth century Majolica that was made in the United States. This ware, found in antique stores today, marks an epoch in the manufacture of pottery and, like many other arts of the last century, was the product of a distinct fashion that later became outmoded. It achieved popularity when all style was expressed by extreme ornamentation, and. as it is unique, it can not be confused with any other pottery. The name Majolica is applied to earthenware of enamel glazed with oxide of tin, called Stanniferous Faience. The art was originated, supposedly, by the Saracens, but when Egypt, Persia and moorish Spain adopted it. and ships from the island of Majorca carried the Spanish ware to the world markets, it became known as Majolica. From Spain it - was introduced into Italy and Mexico, where it attained the greatest perfection. In the sixteenth century, when the dominican friars in Mexico w : anted tiles for their churches, they sent to Spain for priests versed in making Majolica. The natives were proficient potters and readily accepted the new process which has continued as a famous Mexican product. ana THE bamboo motif used in later Majolica, for example the handle on the pitcher illustrated. is an inheritance from the ancient custom of storing drugs and spices in bamboo. This design was employed when the original Majolica was made for pharmacy jars, which w 7 ere called “Albarello,” meaning “little tree.” In Italy the house of Medici can be credited with encouraging the development of Majolica, though they may have wanted it for attractive poison containers. When made in the United States, this ware was not the true Stanniferous Faience. It was a white pottery covered w r ith colored glazes and given the trade name of Majolica. Nevertheless, it deserves notice on its ow 7 n merits, especially for the pastel colorings which are lovely. The fact that it represents a definite phase of pottery accomplishment entitles it to a place in the annals of American art. As usual when an artistic endeavor is developed, at least an echo of it occurs in Indiana. In 1837 James Bennett managed at Troy, Ind., a factory that probably made some Majolica, since the Bennett Brothers later became famous for this ware. Also in Evansville, A. M. Beck in 1882 built a pottery w'here Majolica was manufactured exclusively, but he lived only two years and the succeeding management changed the product. nun THE centennial at Philadelphia in 1876 stimulated the interest in pottery manufacture in the United States, as the Ameriican potters were inspired to excel exhibits sent from the finest factories in the world. James Carr, of the New York City Pottery Company, 1853-1888, sent a Majolica exhibit consisting of pitchers, sugar bowls, vases, match boxes, compotes and centerpieces. It won a medal not only at the centennial, but from the American Institute of New York, and was kept by the Pennsylvania Museum as a permanent collection. Mr. Carr sent an exhibit to the Paris exposition in 1878, which also won a medal. Edwin and William Bennett, younger brothers of James, had a factory in Baltimore in 1850, where they made Majolica marked E. and W. Bennett, Canton, avenue, Baltimore. Edwin must have continued making this ware until after the World's Fair at Chicago in 1893, as his exhibit there was the only one of its kind in the American section. The fine Clifton Majolica was made in Baltimore also and is marked plainly. a a a SHOULD you find pottery bearing the word “Etruscan.” don’t get excited. It isn’t one of the precious pieces made in Etruria about 600 B. C., but was made at Phoenixville, Pa., at the period of its general popularity. The firm of Griffen. Smith & Hill, 18801890, marked its ware with an impression of the monogram G. S. H. surrounded by the trade name Etruscan Majolica, the monogram alone, or the name of Etruscan or Etrascan Majolica. This company made some exceedingly beautiful pieces while an artist named Broune was the designer. Coral, weeds and shells were imitated and table services were made in leaf form, the moulds being taken from real leaves. The plate illustrated is of this type, with the leaf center of light green, edged in yellow and the border of delicate lavender basket w 7 eave. Mrs. W. O. Dunlavy has some pieces of Etruscan Majolica that were wedding gifts to her mother. Two of the plates are fashioned to resemble a leaf in shape as well as coloring. One has the delicate brown tints of a fall leaf and the other shades from yellow to green. A pitcher decorated with fern leaves follows the coloring of the later piece and may have been intended originally to accompany it The ancient origin and unquestioned beauty of Majolica should inspire collectors to true appreciation of the varieties made in the United States, w 7 hich, though rare, are waitng to be found and treasured. JACOB FEEST IS CJEAD Funeral Services for Blacksmith Who Succumbed Saturday, Is Held. Funeral services for Jacob Feest, 48, blacksmith, who died Saturday at his home, 1426 North Holmes avenue. were held today in the A. J. Voigt funeral home, 1632 South Meridian street, and in the Holy Trinity church of which he was tv member. Burial was in St. Joseph Catholic cemetery.

A Real Musical Movie Is Now on View at the Circle ‘Topaze’ Gives John Barrymore a Chance to Play Role of a Pathetic Teacher in Boys’ School. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN GLAD to tell you that “42nd Street" is one grand musical movie with a real singing, dancing and character cast. For some reason, musical movies haven't been such popular hits lately but the quality of real theater in "42nd Street” makes it what it is. The cast has real acting talent in it as the leads in this back stage story of a rehearsal of a musical comedy are played by Warner Baxter, Bebe Daniels, George Brent, Una Merkel. Ruby Keeler, Guy Kibbee, Dick Powell and Ginger Rogers. The big acting surprise of this movie is Ruby Keeler, A1 Jolson's wife, as the chorus girl who jumps into the leading woman's role a few hours before the curtain was to go up on anew

Broadway musical. This picture really belonds to Ruby, and I admit that she was a big surprise to me as she caught the spirit of the chorus girl who wanted a little love (Dick Powell was in the running for a while) as

well as success on the stage. Her nervousness on the opening night when she stepped into the shoes of the prima donna, played in grand, haughty and drunken manner by Bebe Daniels. Warner Baxter puts a lot of good melodramatic acting in his role of the director of the show who sweats

blood at the rehearsals. Una Merkel and Ginger Rogers are roles of wise-cracking chorus girls who know how to get jobs. Both are just right. More comedy is furnished the story by Guy Kibbee as the “dumb angel” who backed the show because he loved to be called “daddy” by the leading woman. Although the story is a corking good back stage yarn, it is the songs and the splendid dance routines that make "Forty-Second Street” such a bundle of joy. You are going to whistle such tunes as “Shuffle Off to Buffalo,” “You’re Getting to Bea Habit With Me” and “I’m Young and Healthy.” Dick Powell has one song and dance number at the close of the story which is a technical marvel, a lot of trick stage and scenic effects. Powell sure shines in this movie when he gets to singing and dancing. Put “Forty-Second Street” on your must list. Now at the Circle. u u a JOHN BARRYMORE IS A TEACHER THIS TIME The acting of John Barrymore as a teacher in a boy’s school in “Topaze” is the chief thing in the movie version of the stage play. Barrymore is a careful actor this time as he develops the character of

the mild teacher who never has tasted real life. The story starts out slowly in the opening scenes where Topaze refuses to give only zeros as grades to the pampered son of a noble family. He gets the boot, meaning the professor is kicked out of his beloved class room. He gets an introduction to life through Myrna

John Barrymort

Loy. He blossoms out in flashy clothes and sells himself to a fake scheme to manufacture a fake mineral water. The story gets its kick out of the way Topaze turns on the wolves with whom he is asssociated in the manufacture of this fake mineral water. At times “Topaze” is a lengthy monologue on the part of Barrymore. Although his acting always is of the best, yet the story seems to lack moving power. Barrymore is a master at makeup as Topaze becomes a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I had the feeling that “Topaze” just misses being a great picture. His most sympathetic work is done near the end of the picture when he returns to his classroom and shows up what a fraud this mineral water business of his really is. I have my idea of this one. You be your own judge. Now at the Apollo. a an GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH DIANA WYNYARD

Must tell you that Diana Wynyard, a London actress who has

scored in “Cavalcade,” will probably go very far in American movies. In “Men Must Fight,” just an ordinary story, Miss Wynyard plays the role of a mother who first served as a nurse in the World War whose loveris killed during his first flight in an airplane. So there will be no reflec-

Phillips Holmes

tion upon her child’s character, Laura, played by Miss Wynyard. marries a good officer, played by Lewis Stone. Laura then decides that she will never let her son become cannon fodder. In 1940, you see Stone as a member of the Cabinet of this country then facing war. Phillips Holmes is the son and he believes that men must not fight but his ‘'father” insists that it must be war. It is a very divided household when mother and son become the extreme pacifists. Laura even starts making talks and she is mobbed and driven off the stage in one exciting scene.

The son who falls in love finally goes to war as the story ends, and his young bride of a few hours declares that she will take steps to keep her son out of war if she ever has a son. You will notice that Miss Wynyard has a strong comedy leaning, and she ages beautifully and realistically. She is a good actress, even in a story that does not possess any too much strength. Holmes captures the sensitive spirit of the boy who is at first controlled by his mother’s opinion. He is splendid in the scene when he realizes just who his father was. Stone measures up to that scene. May Robson gets in some good comedy strokes. As far as I can see. this new English actress is the chief reason for “Men Must Fight.” Now at the Palace. o a a THE BOSWELL SISTERS MAKE GOOD AT INDIANA The Boswell Sisters, three crooners of songs in harmony and with a dash of the methods used by the Mills Brothers, are more than making good this week' on the Indiana stage. I was greatly interested in the technique of these three singers

They sing without effort and their various tone. combinations sound new and they are extremely pleasing. Their China Town number about Minnie, the Moocher’s wedding day, is a gem of unusual tone combinations as well as speed in putting over this type of song. “Crazy People” is another knockout number in the

hands of these girls. While speaking of music, you would do well to hear the overture with Ed Resener directing The story of the composition is told by moving pictures on the screen. The child is a darling and the dog is mighty clever. When Johnny Weissmuller adopted a costume about as bare as worn by Adam, I was sure that he would induce other well'developed males to exhibit their limbs and breasts on the screen. And that is just what Buster Crabbe as the Lion Man is doing in “King of the Jungle.” And by the way, Buster is in Indianapolis ' today ready to meet his public. As a child the lion man is nursed by a i lioness right along with her baby lions. Crabbe seems to have a j jolly time playing with the lions in Africa before he and a number of the lions were captured, sold to American circus.

NATION'S CHIEFS HONOR WALSH AT LAST RITES Roosevelt' Sits Quietly as Services Are Held in Senate Chamber. By I nited pr> .* WASHINGTON, March 6. The nation honored Thomas J. Walsh today at impressive funeral services in the chamber where the late senator from Montana advanced from comparative obscurity to a place of distinguished leadership. In the presence of his widow, the President of the United States and the highest officials of the land, the burial service of the Catholic church was read by Archbishop Curley of Baltimore. The silver and bronze coffin rested in the well of the senate. Flowers were banked in profusion on the bog desk before it. At the head of the casket gleamed tall white candles. A silver crucifix reflected the candle beams. Near the casket were the family of the late senator, including his bride of a week, in whose presence he died while on route to Washington from Florida last Thursday. Supremo Justices Present President Roosevelt, who had selected Senator Walsh to be attor-ney-general in his cabinet, sat before the biei with his cabinet. Treasury Secretary Woodin was the only absent cabinet member. Across the aisle of the hushed chamber were the members of the : United States supreme court. Behind these distinguished ! groups were the members of the senate and the house, foreign diplomats and other high officials—the same men who only two days ago attended the inauguration of the new administration.
