The pi ture is said to mark an epoch in sereen production. Not only has more money been spent on it than on ang picture ever made—but the settings, designed by Joseph Urban, are said to be the most faithful re- productions of gorgeous court life ever made, and the quality of the big cast out-ranks anything yet seen on the screen. The -picture is said to follow very elosely the colorful ramantic tale which -had its foundation in real his- tory afid the rustle of silk and bro- eades, the glint of swords and all the pomp and ceremony of court life are faithfully reflected on the sereen.; No less an authority than Sir Joseph Duveen, eminent col- lector-of London, states that the court “scenes of King Henry VIII are the most authentic ever made. Marion, Davies as Princess Mary Tudor has by far the most import- ant roe of her screen career. Fif- teen different costumes designed | after careful study of costumes act- ually Worn by Princess Mary, are worn by Miss Davies, Each has its own set of specially designed jewel- | ry. The wedding dress of ermine, pearls “and cloth of silver is one of ‘the most elaborate creations of all and weighs twenty-five pounds. Among the thrilling scenes of the f production is a thirty foot leap on horsebick off a bridge into the river below made by Princess Mary Land Charles Brandon. Another is the combat engaged in by twenty swordsmen and in which is Dav- Ties skilifully handling a sword, plays lively. part.

The distin- guished author, Henning Berger, may have worked out the situation dif- ferently from the method you would have chosen, but as the drama is his business there is no doubt about how dramatically he has done it. Some persons might think that a hopelessly rum _ sodden tramp wouldn’t be stealing « drink as one of his last acts on earth. It’: are to tell about that sort of thing. it looks real enough in the screen ver- sion of Berger’s play which was adopted for the sereen by J. G. Hawks, anyway. After having notice served on them that the world was going to end 30 far as they were concerned, with great abruptness, the characters— with the exception of the aforemen- tioned tramp—all get repentant and make a’ clean breast of their short- comings, sing hymns and go in heay- ily for brotherly love. There is a laugh, a tear and a catch in the throat in “The Sirf Flood.” There is no doubt about that.

It was their pur- pose to picture to the smallest de- tail the thrills, the romance and the hardships experienced by New Bed- ford whalemen who have gone “down to the sea in ships” in pursuit of the biggest game the world provides, At the outset, they secured the ser- vices of Elmer Clifton as director Mr. Clifton was associated with David Wark iffith, and he. some two sco tures to hi In “Down to the Sea in Ship he has produced a spectacle which will remain for all time as a monument to his genius as a director. The outstanding fact in conjunc- tion with the filming of this picture, which serves to make it unique in it: i one of the few pro- ductions in the history of motion pic- tures that has for its locale the tem- pestuous waters of the high seas, and the prinicpal character in this breath- taking drama of the Atlantic is a ninety-ton whale. Nature has pro- vided not only a background utterly impossible to imitate through any trick of photography, but it places i» this setting an enraged leviathan of the deep, stung to fury by a deeply embedded harpoon. The great moment in.“Down to the Sea in Ships” comes when, the whale, realizing the futility of escape, turns on his captors, sweeps one side of the boat, leaving but the stumps of broken oars in the hands of the fear- stricken crew. The harpoon is still embedded deeply in the back of the whale and in one last effort to rid itself of the life taking iron, the giant mammal of the ‘deep swims off to a distance of several hundred feet, turns, hesitates an‘ instant, then chargés the boat with the speed and force of the fastest expres» It is only a matter of seconds until the whale has hjt the boat square in the middle, smashing it to bits and toss- ing its crew into the air.

Hadden for the Department of Agriculture and the Port of New York authority, In the first place, it required 141,- 000 carloads of the stuff each year to satisfy the hungers of the city's 8,000,000 persens, and“all of it, as the first step in distribution from rail-head to consumer is dumped in Central Market, « narrow stretch ex- tending for a few blocks along the West Side waterfront of Manhattan. This custom has grown up, Mr. Hadden explains, because all the job- bers of the insist on seeing all the newly-arrived fruit and veget vegetal le: gets for i bles, and on comparing rivals’ pri hefore they will buy, Thus attempts | to break the dominance of the central , market have failed. | Then the problem of diversity | aris. A few years agb, the report indicates, the public appetite accept- | eq its produce in bulk—oranges for | breakfast, always, or perhaps apples, and a few potatoes, onions and other common vegetables throughout the week, ! Now the average housewife must have California grapefruit for her breakfast table one day, Florida grape fruit the next, Oregon apples the | third, New York apples the fourth, ! Michigan peaches the next, continu- ing with fruits of varying clime, Go- ing through the day of m she will celery, common lettuce, ice- | lettuce, spinach, escarole, ro- maines, etc., without end, Thus the shipper, the jobber, the esaler, the retailer and, perhaps, the corner-store-grocery are con- fronted with the necessity of distrib- uting an infinite number of part-car | lots, part truck shipments, part crates | and split packages. With each trans- fer the element of perishability in- | creases and the cost per unit to the ultimate consumer goes up, says Mr. Hadden, 3 A ship from the gulf or a ferry of carloads from a New Jersey terminal lands at Manhattan in the evening. | All night stevedores unload it and ar- range it for display in thg central is so limited that many com- keep motor and horse trucks in line for hours, to get early loads when the market opens at 5:30 a. m.

Then he de- liverg to the retailer, adding another $25 a car to the ultimate cost of the fruit and vegetables. The retailer, if he delivers to his customers adds the cost to his bill. “Nothing is more certain in regard to the handling of fruit and vegeta- bles at New York City than that the terminal facilities now provided are rapidly becoming utterly inadequate,” is Mr. Hedden’s conclusion. It is this problem of terminals and the rapid distribution of food that the Port of New York authority, aided by the: Department of Agriculture, has | set out to solve.
