Korda to Develop Stage Talent for Screen
NEW POLICY
When Josephino," the play about the early life of Napoleon, la produced at His Majesty's. Lon- don, an Important policy will be Inaugurated.
This is the first theatre, produc tion of the L.F. Play Productions, which is part of London Film Pro- ductions, the company which made "The Private Life of Henry VIII." "Catherine the Great," and "The Private Life of Don Juan.”
In an interview with a Daily
Alexan- Telegraph correspondent, der Kords, the managing-director of the company and the producer of the films, explained his plans.
"Our nim," he said, "s to! establish a definith connection be tween the theatre and the films, both in actors and playwrights. It seems to me an obvious develop- ment and it should have happened, when the talkies wore first intro- duced. The theatre, with its great tradition, is slow and con- servative, or it would have cap- tured the films Reven years ago. The stage in the proper training place for the screen.
"In future we shall rely less and less on great Hollywood names: our endeavour will be to build up
young actors a troupe of
and actresses, and also to encourage youthful playwrights to write for UA,
"I intend to give two or three months to the formation of a play reading and selecting department.
"Generally speaking, our aim will be to use the same actors for the theatre and the films. One cannot be rigid about this, for oc- casionally a successful stage player is ineffective on the screen. Per- sonally I shall have nothing to do with the stage productions."
Alexander Kordn stated that they had acquired James Bridie's latest play. "Mary Read," which deals with the notorious 18th Flora pirate. century woman Robson will play the chief part on both stage and screen. The rights had also been acquired of me. Vijinsky's life of her husband, the great Russinn dancer. This would also be done both as a play and a film.
USEFUL RIVALRY.
The rise in importance of British films will have only an added in- centive to American producers to botter the plane of entertainment produced in Hollywood, according to Harold Lloyd.
"American producers have abso- lutely nothing to fear from com- petillon abroad unless they fall back on their heels," states the great comedian."
"British competition must be expected. Their development has been slow but certain, yet a glanco over the leading pictures of the your will show several British- produced films at the top of the lixt.
"There is no reason in the world why the British cannot compete with us on the screen, and add to the grent popularity of pictures. Athletic sports have certainly been advanced by international competi- tion, and surely foreign trade rivalry cannot cause our manufac turers to curl under their tails.
"Britain, has great authors and actors, and they have only tacked in funds and technical education to make the best of their home-bred talent. The experience they have gained from Americans, and their mingling of American directors,
actors, and technicians, now seems. to be bearing fruit. They will make keen competition for Amerl- can producers in the years to come."

WHEN YOU CANNOT SLEEP
sleeplessness condition may be due to one of several causes, or to more than one cause. It may be purely physical in origin, and be due to indigestion, to eating too heavy a supper, or to not having enough to eat, to being cold or hot, evertired or not tired enough,
Often, however, sleeplessness is due to nerves that are over-strained and to a brain that is anxious, worried, or too active. If you have been working too hard, es pecially at hard mental work, then the brain becomes over-strained, and sleeplessness results. What is one to do when one finds oneself in such a condition If it can possibly be managed, a holiday is the best cure. A complete rest and change, even if only for a week or so, may prevent a serious break- down if taken in time, and any effort that prevents a breakdown is worth making. If a holiday is out of the question, then more rest and relaxation must be managed some- how. Try to work less hard, to give up worry, to rest inore, and to eat nourishing food. A tonic may put matters right temporarily, but if, na is probable, the over- strain has caused too rapid an en- croachment upon the glucose re- serve in the body, then that re- serve should be mado good. Fresh glucose stored up in the liver will give fresh energy and vitality. Bealdes glucose, calcium and plios- phorus are necessary, and to ensure their absorption into the blood. vitamin D. is niso required,
