Both to Produce Liliom ’
oy -J r,.w> Li\v> nt.M l:,
“Carrousel,” a musical based on
J^i'enc Molnar’s “Liliom,” is sched
uled to open in New York this
week to once again prove the force
and living popularity of this un
usual drama.
Although originally scheduled
for next fall, the musical has sud
denly burst into prominence under
the direction of those who made
“In Old Oklahoma.” These produc
ers are Oscar Hamerstein, Richard
Rogers, Roben Mamoulin, and
Agnes de Mille.
When Molnar wrote “Liliom” in
1908 in Hungary, he was appar
ently 10 years ahead of his time
for the original production was re
ceived with much disfavor from an
audience which seemingly had no
understanding of the play.
Successful in 1918
Ten years later, in 1918, “Liliom”
was again produced in Budapest
and was an outstanding success.
Since then it has been produced
successfully several times in New
York.
Because of its increasing popu

lanty, “Liliom is an outstanding
example of middle European drama
and well chosen to represent the

of classic Greek drama.
“Liliom,” pow in its fourth week

W. Robinson, the production will

devised, some of which form the
basis of the great battles of today.
It was a cosmopolitan war. Chev
rolet trucks carried Spanish in
fantry against Communist slaves
from all over the world; Amer
icans flew Soviet planes against
Italians; Argentines shot German
bullets at Belgians; French tanks
crawled against Africans; British
warships hunted pirates; the Chief
made his plans and won his vic
tories. The addition of a new navy
to his arms made Franco “admiral
of the fleet.”
May 19, 1939, saw the great vic
tory parade in Madrid. The gen
eralissimo wore his new grand
laureled cross of Saint Ferdinand
as before him passed in review his
conquering heroes. He had built
the greatest Spanish power since
the conquistadores of Phillip II.
August 4, 1939, saw Franco the
chief of state, “responsible only to
God and history.”
England and France each paid
$100,000,000 in gold for Spain’s
neutrality in the coming war for
Europe. This is being used to re
build the damage wrought by the
Bolsheviks. Industry is being mod
ernized; education is extended to
the masses; Christians can go to
church on Sundays. The army is
based upon veteran cadres. Its
equipment is efficient. The Blue
division, composed of expert vet
eran volunteers, fights the Red
army.
German Bases Refused
Because Germany helped Franco,
he naturally values German friend
ship. But he refused Goering bomb
er bases to use against Americans
in North Africa “because it would
not be in accordance with the hon
or of Spain." Admiral Raeder met
a flat refusal to his request for
U-boat bases in Spanish colonial
possessions.
Most of the military supplies,
such a gasoline, lubricants, motor
power, aircraft, technical equip
ment, and so forth, are “made in
U.S.A.” So also are the majority
of the non-military imports. Prac
tically all Spanish exports are to
the Americas.
Didja hear about the sailor who,
upon his return to New York har
bor after long years of overseas
duty, was heard to remark to the
Statue of Liberty, “Put your torch
down, honey . . . I’m home.”

The machine gun chattered defiance of the Japs. Their batteries
tried desperately to silence it. In the end they did. When Private

He manned the gun, resumed fire. Mortar shells lobbed toward him.
The Japs had the range all right. Yet he kept firing until a shell
