An official British wircless said his government was maintaining contrel of a large area to the west of Addis Ababa, unoccupied by the italians. That the tension between Italy and Britain has, by no means, 1 ed was evident in London. Like- wis was apparent the British| paid little respect to Il Duce's i curances that Italy had no furthe cclonial ambitions in East Africa THE BUDGET SCANDAL | James H. Thomas—Britain’s Col- | cnial Secretary, known as “Dr Shirt Jim"—handed in his resig nation; it was quickly accepted by Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin nn(l‘ King Edward. | The resignation was dated May 20. On the same day, a judicial mbmml ended its investigation of > most-publicized scandal in Bri- s polities since the World War. The scandal resulted from a leak- age of budget information, on which friends of Thomas profited by taking out insurance with Lloyds. The recent budget increased the income tax, the friends of Thomas “hedged”’ against an increase. The leakage, in testimony, was linked indirectly to Thomas; but the final report of the tribunal was awaited to determine if the friends profited by a shrewd caculation or by “tips” emanating from the budget-makers. ) GOLD FROM CHINA'S SILVER After numerous conferences in ‘Washington, the United States gov- ernment agreed tg make substantiai purehases of silver from China; de- signed to stabilize the Chinese cur- rency. A considerable portion of Ameri- can gold, it was anticipated, will be shipped to China during the stabilizing operations. GRAN CHACO AFTERMATH For mahy months, Paraguay and Balivia fought for possession of the Gran Chaco. Toward the end, be- fore other Pan-American nations brought about an armistice, the sol- diers of both nations tired of the conflict; there was a widespread feeling of bitterness against the policies and leaders of their gov- ernments. This first manifested itself, last February, in Paraguay. Chaco war veterans rebelled; they ousted the Government of President Eusebio Ayala and created a revolutionary dictatorship to effect a “workers’ Democracy.” This week, in Bolivia, officer-vet- erans of the Chaco united with leaders of the Socialist party. In a bloodless coup d’etat, they forced the resignation of President Jose Tejada Sorzano. A revolutionary junta, composed of soldiers apd so- cialists, assumed power to organize “A new Fatherland upon bases of social justice, equity and equality more in accord with the times in which we are living.” Within two days, however, the Socialists were themselves ousted and the military men were in com- plete control. The revolution quick- ly assumed a Fascist aspect, with the elevation of Colonel David Toro, a Chaco hero, to the Presi-| dency.

When AYRES ENJOYS HIS NEW ROLE, Breadwinner QUITS SHAVING .\ HOLLYWOOD, May 27.—Director Lew Ayres has no desire to direct Actor Lew Ayres in a picture. He is willing to leave stunts like that to people like Charlie Chaplin. But he definitely wants to keep on directing other actors. Lew, the former orchestra player who broke into pietures in “The Kiss” with Garbo, and became an important name after “All Quiet on the Western Front,” recently com- pleted his first picture in which he was behind the camera. It “The Glory Parade,” a story about the battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac Lew hopes his picture is good. He does not like to talk about di-| recting until he hears the verdict. “Now if I'd already finished five or six pictur he says, “I might | be able to say something—but right now, well, I'm just waiting and hoping is Directing Easier 1 “I know this, though. Directing is easier than acting. The hours are longer. You get through’a day and then you go home to map out the next day's shooting, and you have a lot of details to worry about. But I'd rather do it than be in‘ front of the camera. When you're acting you work emotionally. When you're directing the labor is men- tal, and that is not nearly so ex- hausting. “Another thing,” he said, “it's a relief not to worry about how you look. You can wear any old thing to work, and you can shave or not shave, just as you please.” Lew's preference in shaving was for the latter. It accounted, per- haps, for his offering a trophy to the member of his crew exhibiting the most successful beard. It was two or three years ago that Ayres, then doing a succes- sion of conventional leads, began to think about getting his boyish appearing face off the screen. From play with a movie camera he turned to filming little stories of his own construction. One of them “starred” Bobby Burns, a k jclose friend who now is a success as a film comedian. In another, “Little Red Riding Hood,” Mrs.| Ayres (better known as Ginger Rogers, and from whom he recent- ly separated) played a role. “She played a sort of rabbit,” Lew explains, “and—and I think it was the cutest thing she's ever done. Then we did a ‘feature’ and that was the first time I ran across lighting problems. But all of that I signed with Re- public to act and direct, I started going, around the sets, watching other directors work. I'd figure out how I would do a scene, then see how the real directors did it. “Making ‘The Glory Parade’ 1 was nervous, at first,” he explain- ed. “Naturally. And I could see several ‘other fellows on the side- lines, warming up. Can't blame the company for that—how could they know what I could do? About the fifth day, though, the others went away, so I figured I was doing all right. ? “And another thing — but say, what do I know about directing, anyway!” } GLADYS FORREST’S PARENTS ON VISIT| Mr. and Mrs. N.
