This Week the Broadway is Presenting "Hitlerâ€"Beast of Berlin‘" on Double Proâ€" gramme. What all free nations face should the progress of Hitler be allowed to conâ€" tinue is depicted in graphlc manner in "Hitlerâ€"Beast of Berlin,‘ at the Broadway theatre all this week, July "th to 12th. There is the added feaâ€" ture, "School for Husbands,"‘ starring Diana Churchill, daughter of Premier Winston Churchill. "Hitlerâ€"Beast of Berlin‘ is a startâ€" ling screen drama of life under the Life Under Brutal Dictatorship Shown at New Broadway Broadway is Tough Yet Not So Tough This Picture Shows Theseâ€" contradictory statements are made and proven in Ben Hecht‘s "Angels Over Broadway," a vwistful, tender, all too human romance which is playing at the Cartier theatre Monâ€" day, Tuesday, Wednesday this week, July 7th, 8th, 9th. A motion picture which finds breathâ€"taking beauty in the squalor and murk of rainâ€"swept cily, which finds excitement and adâ€" vÂ¥enture in a wispy little man‘s effort to end his trowbles by sulcide, which finds fheartâ€"flling romance in the strange â€"~and wonderful meeting beâ€" tween a boy who thinks he‘s tough and girl who is afraid of the future, fearâ€" ful of the past, "Angels Over Broadâ€" way‘" mixes with its poetic beauty all the brash, brazen turmoil o0f a â€"turâ€" bulent, éverâ€"moving city. Douglas /Fairbanks Jr., is dbrilliantly starred in the new film, which he proâ€" duced with Ben Hecht. As the Broadâ€" way "wise guy‘‘ young Fairbanks brings to the screen a characterization comâ€" pletely new and strange, and does so with the smooth assurance, not of the born actor but cf the born Broadwayite whom he represents. Miss®: Hayworth is equally appealing in her role, an intriguing and delightful study of girl cut of nowhere.. Thomas Mitchell, that master of human characterizaâ€" tions, adds another feather to his alâ€" ready overburdened cap with his perâ€" fcrmance as the drunken playwright, philosophically trying to reâ€"write life the way it should be and never knowâ€" ing that he has amazingly succeeded. John Qualen, last of the quartet, is equally important to the film, as a numbed, unthinking victim of cirâ€" cumstances who finds himself the hero of a situation he once would have deemed incredible, who finds himself meeting on their own terms men from the strange new world of glittering Broadway, of shadows and shots and screams. Credit, too, must be given L¢e Garmes, whose camera work contriâ€" butes a great deal to the beauty and tense drama of the new film, and to George ‘Antheil, composer of a musical score which heightens the stirring effect. Blending of Gallantry and Beauty With the Seamy Side of Life. Great credit must acerue to the splendid cast; greater credit must be accorded Mr. Hecht. What with writâ€" ing the original story, adapting it to the screen, dirscting it, producing it, acting in it and even helping to write the musical score, Mr.: Hecht quite chbviously played an important part in making "Angels Over Broadway" so important a moticn picture. . _ Broadway isn‘t so tough.

Among the high spots of "Hitlerâ€" Beast of Berlin‘ are scenes showing how the illegal underground printing presses operate and how the determined antiâ€"Nazl disseminate literature which, they hope, will put an end to the inâ€" famous dictatorship under which the German nation is staggering to its doom. Also shown is the dread Gesâ€" tapo (Nazi secret service) holding its inquisitions and how the bulletâ€"headed operatives drag theâ€"truth from beâ€" tween the clenched teeth of its bleedâ€" swastika of How Britain Can Aid the Russian Soviet Some expents here that Russian resistance offers an opporâ€" tunity for taking the initiative now which is too good to miss. Others, on the contrary, argue it would be unwise to attempt to make any major move until the British equipment both in the air and on land is far more adequate than at present. The question is one which closely concerns the United States as well as Britain since it involves the decision as to whether part of American : proâ€" duction,© particularly of airplanes, ought to be diverted across the Pacific to Russia so as to strengthen the Soviet‘s resistance in the vital realm of air warfare. and without prejudice, great picture tells the engrossing of a fearless young German, a the rule with today‘s all this story The issue has aroused sharp controâ€" versy here. Prime Minister Winsion Churchill has announced that the British government would give "all posâ€" sible aid" «to the Soviets; but he gave practically no indication of where, when, how, and how much assistance was to be provided. The main point which is being deâ€" bated is whether Britain ought to go all out now to make this the turning point of war by attempting to take the initiative against the Nazis in the Wess, while they have their hands full with Russia in the East. Major War Strategy again the question is one of major war strategy. The general imâ€" pression prevalent in London is thal Mr. Churchill‘s strategic conception of the war in broad outline is to remain on the defensive, fighting the Germans whserever they are to be found, but not attempting an allâ€"out offensive effort until Britain, with the aid of the United Siates prodtuction, has achieved cverwhelming superiority in the air. When this numerical air supremacy has been obtainedâ€"and the estimated date of this consummation has now been moved forward well into 1942â€" then, and only then, would come : the time for a smashing allâ€"out attack on the Reich. _ | This absence of any official sign as to how the government intends to imâ€" plement its avoywed policy raises seriâ€" ous problems of. war strategy. (Christian Science Monitor) Londonâ€"As Soviet resistance to the Nazi invasion develops stubbornly all along the vast eassern front, aid for Russia is becoming more and more clearly a major strategic question of war rather than a mere matter of miliâ€" tary tactics. ' This strategic scheme has much to recommend it, notably the fact that experience, every time the British come up against the Nazis, has shown the futility of attempting to turn back the tide of Nazi motorized military might without first obtaining control of the air over the dbattle area. On the other hand, those who favor lrunching an immediate large scale offensive, synchronized with the Rusâ€" sian struggle point out that air superâ€" jorty over an area including particuâ€" larly the whole of Europs is, and must necessarily ‘be, a relative affair. These experts insist that with the vast majority of Reichsmarshal Herâ€" mann Goering‘s best pilots, fighter planes, and bombersâ€" busy in the East, Britain today probably possesses greatâ€" er relative air strength in the West than it would have, even after much more American aid has been received, when Hitler had disposed of Russia and turned all his attention back to l#>s Battle of Britain. ‘ They decliare that even assuming that Germany possesses 260 divisiqns, not only are more than half of these inâ€" volved along the lengthy front in the E1st but it is likely that most effecâ€" tive mechanized corps are concentraied there, thus â€"leaving the western shores It is easy to understand with the unfortunate examples of Norway, Dunâ€" kirk, Greece, and Crete before them the British military authorities would not want to risk a repetion of these withdrawals. It is probably safe to asâ€" sume that the general staff here would require to ‘be better satisfied as to the ability of the Soviets to put up a susâ€" trained and effective resistance before committing itself to any major offenâ€" sive now. The village milkman bought a horse for the morning round. It was not exactly a thoroughbred, but it had four legs. ' along the continental coast. In support of the practivability of this move they point out the success of the RAF. in extending to Northern France their daylight air superiority, If the Hurricanes and Spitfires can maintain the same air supremacy over Holland, then landing a large force ought not to be out of question. Meantime it is very problematic whether those air bases in Western Russia would still remain in Sovigt hands ‘ and it is also questionabie whether the Russian air force would still be in condition to carry on effecâ€" tively against the vastly superior numâ€" bers and later types of planes of the Luftwaffe. Until these questions of Russia‘s ability to resist not merely for a matâ€" ter of weeks but of months are anâ€" swered satisfactorily therefore, it is likely that British aid for Russia will continue to consist in intensiâ€" fied night bombing raids on Western and Northwestern Germany, not in the offensive daylight sweeps by British bombers and fighters over Northern France. Therse have been reports, for ex« ample, that only 20,000 or so German troops are at present stationed in The Netherlands. Those who advocate making the most of the present straâ€" tegic apportunity insist that it would be relatively easy to verify this by air reconnaissance and if it is so, there ; Planes to Russia? To a certain extent the same would apply in considering whether to divert any American planes to Russia. It is ibelieved it would probably. be feasible to ferry bombers across the Pacific. British pilots and crews could conâ€" ceivably take them by way of Alaska and Hawaii to Viadivostok and thence either fly or take them by transâ€"Siberâ€" ian railway to Russian air bases in the West. But the feeling here is that it would take a long timeâ€"many weeks or even monthsâ€"before anything more than a mere handful of British planes could get into operation with the neâ€" cessary trained ground crews and spare parts, on the‘Russian front. Other ~experts recognize, however, that in order to make such aid to Rusâ€" sia effective, small landing party or even a single large attack would not suffice. â€" There would have to be several simultangous landings suffiâ€" ciently strong to force the Nazis to divert back to the west powerful forces, both ‘of planes and troops. Whether the British are in a position to carry out such simultaneous offensive thrusts at this time remains to be seen. However, the possibility of more adâ€" venturous strategy being adopted canâ€" not be ruled out entirely, and surprises are possible after military consultaâ€" tions between Britain and the Sovigsis get underâ€"way.
