"MY IDEAL MARRIAGE MCMAHON
-MY OWN"
Star
Marlene Dietrich
By
Besieged Frantic Crowds
(By A Special Correspondent)
Paris, Aug. 10.
FTER being mobbed by one of the largest and most AF
frenzied crowds that have ever welcomed a film star to Paris, Miss Marlene Dietrich, the blonde idol of millions of screen fans, told me to-night of her plans for her London visit and for the education there of her daughter Maria, aged 11.
:
We sat in her suite in a small, extremely quiet hotel away from the fashionable thoroughfares of Paris, and as we talked Marin, a tall, fair-haired, vivacious girl entered and shyly shook hands,
"shay go to England, probably next week-il depends on when I can see Mr. Korda to arrange about my film," Miss Dietrich told me. "We hope that Maria will be able to start her English schooling, near Løn. don, after the summer holidays in September.
"I expect to stay in England throughout September to make my film with Rabert Donat, based on James Hilton's book 'Without Armour, then perhaps I shall stay a short while on the French Riviera, and afterwards go back to make three films for Paramount, c

she went on (Miss Dietrich's husband is Herr Rudolph Sieber). "Or course I am. These 12 years since my marriage have been ideal- but, of course, we must not claim to be the happiest married couple. Married couples can never be happy if they are continually parted. "I see no reason why I shall not work again with von Stern- berg." said Miss Dietrich, referring to her supposed professional separation from the man who directed many of her Hollywood! pictures. "There is no separation really."
"I must have rest now," she said. A slight huskiness enhanced the charm of her smooth, perfectly controlled voice, which has 'thrilled filmgoers all round the world.

Surgeon's Attack
On "Stunt"
DRINK AND THE
CAR DRIVER Ostropaths will be up in arms at the stinging criticism of their calling by Mr. A. S. Blundell Baukurt, the orthopaedic surgeon of Middlesex Hospital.
}{
Here are some of the things he the British Medical Assoclu- ar-tion conference at Oxford.
At the Gare St. Lazare, the terminus where Miss Dietrich rived from Le Havre en route from Hollywood, astonishing scenes marken the entrance of the boat train.
A struggling crowd rushed along the platform and surrounded Miss Dietrich as she stepped from the couch. At one period her husband and a friend had to pre- vent her from being crushed by the crowd.
It took her a full 20 minutes
to struggle along the few feet
of platform towards a pre-ar- ranged exit through the station yard.
As her car drove scores of frantic
the women clawed at windows and jumped on to the running-board, eager to see the famous star.

"Osteopathy is an American stunt based on the unsupported assertion that practically all diseases are due to imaginary displacements of the spine.
"It has been investigated up to the hill, and it has been found wanting.
"It is up to all orthopaedic surgeons to see that these confidence tricks are exposed, and to ensure that the pro- per use of manipulation in

A friend of Bannigan said: "Bannigan, whom I knew дн McMahon, was associated with Mrs. Violet Van der Elst in her campaign against enpital punish- ment.
"He claims to have helped her to write a book. He assisted her in a general election campaign. "He was married, I believe, in Sentints. He calls himself a social reformer."
at
Last April McMahon elaimed £67 10%. from Mrs. Van der Elst Marylebone County Court. He al Ingad that she instructed him to hire cars during her general election campaign at Putney. The claim was dismissed with costs.
Father's Grief
In February McMahon gave evi- dence in the King's Division in a case in which Mrs, Van der Bist was concerned..
He stated then that he helped Mrs. Van der EINE to write a book against capital punishment.
A Glasgow reporter wrote: Banni- gan's father heard the news with bowed head and tear-fillel eyes. He buried his face in his hands.
