Unruly Hair Causes Retake Of Movie Scene By Bobbin Coons , HOLLYWOOD Sunlight flltertS through the bedroom window and shone around Miss Mary Carlisle' as, mirror In hand, she put the finishing touches on her make-up before set tling down to cloee her eyes In a movie sleep. -. i , -. ,, She was to sleep to wake, for Lionel Barrymore, , playing her fa ther, was to come In and say good morning, bringing a present. Mary, her face pink and white and smooth, and each golden wave of her alr lying In Its proper place, tethored by a band of unruffled blue ribbon, slipped the mirror under the bedclothes and dropped . off to a beautiful,' calm, coemetlcally-perfect olnema slumber, . It was the third or fourth take, and she had been "dropping oft" for about half an hour before. Lionel Barrymore had taken his place outside the door, and with the call of "quiet everybody I Turn 'em overl" he made his entrance . The scene was well on Ita way when suddenly it stopped. Someone had noticed that a wisp of the Bar rymore hair was standing up like a coxcomb. Mary doubled up with ' laughter. "You soolled that one, Mr. Barry- morel" and Lionel laughed while a comb was applied. "I might get a hair-cut," he volunteered. They did the scene again. They Say He's Uruff All of which Is reported because It effectively dissipates the myth that Lionel Barrymore Is an old gruff grumbler on tho sot-and because It's an event when Lionel Barrymore spoils a scene. He haa done It before, and what actor hasn't? But gruff? He was as mild and pleasant and apologetic about It as any screen novice. ' After tho scene was finished, Bar rymore went off to his studio hldei away, exchanging ploaaantrlea with worlcnrn hn met on tho way. ,: Thalj ijMtfelvwny, Is ilo iflitborate bungalow" ' TVb a former" offltA' ovor one of the sound stages, with big windows that look out over ' the studio street, and give plenty of light fof sketching. So Jimmy dels Credit Jimmy Is "Cupid" Duranto to Mclen Hayes and Charles MacArthur, It was under tho shadow of tho Dur anto schnosxlo that tho actress and the writer first felt the arrows. Whenever they wont to a show, after their first meeting, MaoArthur' Insisted that It be one In which Jim my was featured. "And it was during those excur sions to Durante's shows that wo loll in love," they say. In Washington closed doors. One phase of the code subjected to much criticism la a part of Section 8. It provides: "This code shall apply to all own ers, operators, and agents of all ves sels of all flags engaged In foreign and domestlo commerce." This provision haa caused much alarm among foreign shipping Inter ests. The Baltic and International Maritime conference, representing more ship owners than any other In ternational organization, la particu larly agitated. Modifications Asked The organization has Issued a spe cial circular against the code In which the view Is taken that the situation presenta a grave danger to International shipping Interests. The argument la advanced that owners of liners and tramps alike should Insist that no country at tempt to control other than Its own shipping except by international con vention. The private opinion is expressed at NBA headquarters that the final draft of the code either will not con tain Section 8 or else It will be modi fied drastically. The Baltic and International Mari time conference has expressed other objections to the proposed code. While non-American liner owners anticipate the administration of the code to be fair, It Is polnfedl out In the same circular, "It Is not conceiv able that there will be room within the proposed code for non-American tramp owners. j' 'On . the contrary, there - Is every Justification for believing; the code will have the effect of eliminating all foreign tramp shipping in American trade," Important tttepheiie What la probably the most import ant direct telephone line In Wash ington certainly from January 3 until congress adjourns has been given a final test and found ship shape. It la the line running from the of fice of the secretary of the senate Just off the senate floor to the pri vate oirice of President Roosevelt at the White House. That telephone line played an Im portant part In the special session of congress. It will do the. same In the coming session. It Is possible for Democratic lead ers of the senate to communicate In stantly with the president whenever tney una it necessary to do so. The phone Is so close to the senate that the president .can be advlsedl In stantly of what Is going on on the floor, ' .

"haa '.oosed a flood of talk until sexuality haa become, an obsession." i Furthermore she contended that woman's struggle for education equal to that at a man's was bringing de struction to her finer senses and ruining her moral character. Women today are undervaluing the family and marriage, she said. "We are Informed that marriage Is nothing but. an outworn convention legalizing sexuality. Mothers with large families are discredited."
