IJOLLYWOOD—If Jane Bryan
a* really means it about giving
reajly means it about giving
up her career for marriage. Hol-
lywood hasn't any real precedent
to cite gUbly.
There's June Travis, who was
wed the other day, but June left
pictures a year or two ago—an
unusual step for any young girl
who has had a taste of fame.
But Jane Bryan, after one big
role, had the way open for bigger
assignments and had arrived, vir-
tually, at stardom. She was given
a part in "Married. Pretty, and
Poor” which she didn’t like. She
was suspended. The next Holly-
wood knew, she was married

ship successfully evaded the gos-
sip columns, and she was saying
she was through with pictures,

There have been voluntary re-

ing second fiddle.
You don’t hear much of Marian
Nixon any more, but you hear a
lot of Mrs. William Seitcr. And
if you wondered what ever hap-
pened to Leila Hyams, or Virginia
Valli, or Constance Talmadge. the
answer is, “They married.” (Mia*
Talmadge recently divorced
Townsend Nctchcr, but she quit
acting to become his wife.) . „
There are many other former
actresses who chose home fire-
light to studio arc-light*. but
there isn’t one in the lot actually
comparable to the Bryan girl.
All those others forsook their
careers, it is true, but most of
them abandoned careers that
were on the down-beat. Either
they had enjoyed full year* of
fame and fortune on their own,
or they had decided the game
wasn’t worth the struggle com-
pared to romance or the peace of
domesticity.

AND among the younger of the
lot, there wasn't one with the
promise of this young Jane. There
wasn't one with her sincerity, her
mobility of face and .expression,
her sure “feeling” for acting, her
eagerness to learn and to profit
by tutelage.
It’s romantic, all right. The
only approach to it for sheer
poetic romance was provided
some seven years ago by Edna
Best. Miss Best fled Hollywood

“great lover’ of the movies, John
Gilbert, because she couldn't bear
to be separated so long from hus-
band Herbert Marshall.

tTJTASHINGTON— In spite of British secrecy on trade statis-

on production of war goods so she can make things to sell
abroad.

things said England had pulled
numerous plants out of war pro-
duction to fill orders for foreign
goods.
Even the rationing of British
subjects and the restraints on
purchase of non - essentials, he
said, is in large part directed at
preserving the output of export-
able goods. It has other purposes,
too. Britain doesn’t y ant her sub-
jects to spend their war wages
foolishly. British industrial wages
are in large part pegged to prices.
If British wage earners begin
buying too lavishly of luxury and
non-essential goods, prices will
rise. That will force up wages.
In turn rising labor costs will
force up prices—and so on. The
old spiral leads to inflation.
The British want none of that.
Moreover, they want their wage
earners to save their increased
earnings. It will be nice to have
them able to buy war bonds.

out of the country for fashion-
able frivolities just when the
country needs raw materials she
can make into things to drop on
Germany or sell to neutrals.
What has made it possible to
return part of the great English
factory system to manufacture of
export goods is the strange na-
ture of the war. There has been
no enormous destruction such as
might have been expected by this
time. No trains have been blown
up. No columns of trucks have
been destroyed.
Britain expanded her plants in

British Trade Climbs

happening. Normally England
imports $324,000,000 of goods a
month, exports $157,000,000. Fat
two months after the war started
in September both imports and
exports here were cut almost ir

many had been cut off. That was
especially true in South America.
Promptly British trade climbed
back to normal and above. B,v
December it was better than nor-
mal, with imports at $387,000,000
ahd exports at $180,000,000. Re-
turns from shipping and insurance
handsomely helped balance her
trade.
She is engaging in direct bar-

Germany did. Without stinting

The raw materials she has sought
since November are the kind
which can be converted either
into essential war goods or into
export goods. She is using mighty
little shipping space to supply
fancy goods for her wage earners.

ly, “Don’t wait for me.”
4s Joe and his men disappeared
around a bend In the coast lino.
Johnny struggled to hie feet and at-
tempted to carry his ease of whisky
Ifato the shade of the nearby jungle.
But the ease was heavy and Johnny
Whs drunk. Finally he selected a
couple of bottles and staggered with
them toward the trees. Halfway he
stumbled and fell, completely out.
Frouk h«r tree-top eyrie, Dea had
watehad all of this with frightened
interest. TO her It looked as though
Joe and his men were deliberately
abandoning Johnny. Cautiously she
descended and, trailed by Koko, ap-
proached the figure on the beach.
Fites were buzslng around John-
ny’s head as Dea dropped to her
knees beside him. He was snoring.
As the girl bent closer she got a
whiff of his breath. Her expression
changed from concern to an annoyed
smile. This boy was not hurt; ho was
drunk. Suddenly the half-forgotten
picture of her father came clearly
to mind. Koko, who had been wan-
dering around, approached Dea and
handed her a bottle. The girl studied
It for a moment and made her de-
cision.
Safely away from the edge, John
ny closed his eyes and fought to re
gain control of himself. At last he
opened his eyes and studied hi* *ur
roundings.
He found himself on a platform
made from the salvage from ships
One corner was screened from the
prevailing winds by c^udc bamboo
walls. In ono corner of/the plat term

them was a ship's pulley rigged ou

of the holes, waved a sigual and sud

With Koko's help she dragged the
unconscious form of Johnny Into
the jungle.
Having stowed the provisions, Joe
returned to the beach. To his amaze-
ment, Johnny had disappeared!
Shouting orders to Mekalke and the
boys, the Sklpperyhastily organized
searching parties. Suddenly one of
the native boys called to the mate
in Polynesian. Mekalke shaded his
eyes and searched the waters of the
harbor.
“Look, Boss. Look!” Joe followed
the pointing hand. Johnny's hat was
bobbing gently on the water. As they
watched a shark's fin splashed
through the water. The hat disap-
peared.
Joe rubbed his fists In his eyes.
“Him dead, huh?" Mckaike inquired.
The shock left Joe speechless for o
few minutes. “And I wished it on
him ... I did It,” he muttered at
last. “The poor kid.”
Awkwardly Joe removed his hat
and prayed.
But Johnny was far from dead
although he thought something
equally strange and catastrophic had
happened to him when he awakened
frotp his drunken stupor.
The sun was blazing into his eyes
and hls hands and feet were secure-
ly bound. Struggling to freo himself.
Johnny rolled sidewise and glanced
down. He was on a platform high tn
the tree tops with a drop of more
than fifty feet below. Hastily he
wriggled away from the edge of the
platform.
johnny groaned. “I was prepared
for pink elephants or even blue liz-
ards,” he muttered to himself. “But
a black monkey doing a disappear-
ing act in a basket is something
really new.”
He opened his eyes and stared at
the spot where the chimp had disap-
peared. As he watched, Dea appeared
comfortably riding up in another
basket.
Johnny blinked but refused lo be
frightened. "Who are you?” he de-
manded.
“I’m Dea,” the girl said as she
seated herself beside him.
“D - - - what?”
"Deo-ee-aye.”
Johnny repeated It. "Where did
you get a name like that?"
Dea smiled. "From Pop," she ex-
plained.
Johnny glanced at Koko. “Him?"
he asked.
Dea laughed merrily. “That's Ko-
ko,” she said.
Johnny closed his eyes. “A beauti-
ful girl named Dea . . . and an ape
named Koko ... and we’re all up In
a tree fifty feet from the ground!”
he muttered. “Goodbye, world. It
was great while It lasted.”
The girl smiled understanding);.
Slio remembered Pop's had morn-
ings.
Quietly she set about her prepa-
rations for Johnny's resuscitation.
Johnny continued to mutter t*
himself.
