ANOTHER ISOLATIONIST BITES THE DUST The defeat of Senator Burton K. Wheeler (D., Mont.) is another .indication that isolationism is not a popular stand to take in this year of 1946. (Indiana GOP Congressmen, take notice ) Wheeler, like the Republican Shipstead of Minnesota, has gone down to political oblivion on a straight-out isolationist platform. His opponent, former State Supreme Court Justice Leif Erickson, is a firm believer in international . cooperation. Two other things are significant in regard to Erickson's nomination: He is a confirmed follower of the New Deal. And he had the backing of both James Roosevelt, son of the late President, and of CIO-PAC. . ' Who said PAC has lost its political punch?

BROADWAY MIGHTS BY AXEL STORM

Distributed by KJde In a world where flagpole sitters stage . "perch-marriages," it does not seem incredible that a horrible example might also become a success story. t For instance about five years ago a young fellow named Jules Pfeiffer, at an initial expense of some $12.80, produced a tent-show epic titled "Maid In The Ozarks," Since then, to the amazement as .well as the amusement of the entrepreneur, this classic example of dull dirt has been moving from coast to coast piling up a neat fortune for its producer and considerable royalties for its author. It is with some hesitation that we report this gold strike in the Ctearks. for there is. always the possibility , that some unwary prospector might try to repeat the strange experiment of ;Mr. Pfeiffer. But the young man "who gave up a Chicago cocktail bar to play a California longshot has wound up on Broadway with his "Maid In The Ozarks." And con sidering the fact that just a few months back theatres were to be had only for love or money, this is Broadway at its most fantastic. On the night we attended, the memory-laden Belasco Theater stood as usual im44th Street. Its high ceilings, with their familiar mosaics were there. There was the usual slick-paper program and the tickets were $3.60. But on the stage was something that sent memory darting back to the days when, as a boy we attended Medicine shows in small Michigan towns or sat in the gallery of the ten-twent -thirt' shows. Just, out side the lobby were two huge and gaudy posters on which appeared gals with long bare legs. This undoubtedly had its appeal in the tank towns through which the "Maid" had been traveling. But they fail to account for an 86 week run in California and a 68 week run in Chicago. Nor do they explain how come the horrible example broke a house record in 3fA '6.1

"Pete's going to call you again," Carly said. SUDDENLY it was evening,. the lights in Daisy's hospital room were on and Carly was sitting by her bed. ' Hello, darling," she said. "How do you feel?" ' Could I have some water?" asked Daisy. Her throat felt very sore. The nurse brought a glass with a tube in it Daisy asked, "Does Pete know?" "He called just about half an hour ago." "He didn't? Why didn't you wake me?" "He's going to call you again; darling. I told him all about it and he sounded just-fine. He'll call tomorrow night." . Daisy cried in self-pity and the doctor came in and there were pills to swallow. Then there was blackness again, filled wilh uneasy figures.

(International Soundphoto) Features, Inc.. Newark, N. J., that had long been held by "The Desert Song. En route to the east coast a stop in Baltimore was good for $15,000 and Milwaukee shelled out a $16,000 net. Well may Jules Pfeiffer fall in the aisles with laughter as they say he often does when he considers the fabulous sums he has taken in. For in the five years since "The Maid" was first presented, with 4 scenes and costumes that well may have come from Thrift shops, the incredible sum of $2,500,000 has been grossed and some 6,000,000 people have een it. " ' ' ' With this kmd of money, Pfeiffer could afford to announce in advance of his play's opening that it would undoubtedly be considered the worst play ever seen on Broadway. This indicates how little Pfeiffer knows of Broadway history. Along with fellow critics, we have seen many worse plays but never have we seen one that was cruder. After meeting the hillbillies introduced during the three acts, we are quite willing to have folks from "Tobacco Road" in for a good lost weekend. Fact is, that compared with his Ozark brethern, the Tobacco Roaders are candidates for next year's Blue Book. Don't ask us what the play's about. In a general way it concerns mountain folk who think its funny to be deloused in public; to put dirty bare feet on the dinner plates and discuss the bedbug situation before an audience. Otherwise, into this company come a couple of city gals in shorts to stir up everything from the Klan to the town drunk, who puts on the one funny character performance of the evening. The question now is whether or not the patrons of the cut-rate ticket agencies will consider this a "summer lark" and keep it goin?. Boecl tearch ii copyright, 1946, by King Feature! Syndicitt,

Suddenly, she seemed back on the pier ... , her talk to Pete that night when he telephoned.. ' - Why won't they? she wondered, but the:e was no emotion behind the question. It might as well have been, Thank God I didn't have to talk to him. She said the word love to herself and it meant nothing. ; She turned restlessly on her side and through the window saw a tug on the river. Suddenly she was back at the end of the pier, back in the center of her despair, There it all was-Lucile O'Mara's voice on the telephone, Dan's brutal face . . . Why should they both hate me so? She wondered. Because part o Dan does hate me. And she on the phone she didn't care if she destroyed herself so long as She could hurt me. Perhaps she is crazy, thought Dajsy.
