'The fate of many people, his owr large fortune, and the | hearts ol two beautiful women are | the objects of his conquest in the story, which is filled with a wealth of exciting incidents. Through a | radically new technique of story telling, the brilliant and often | clashing characterizations of Kane himself are seen through the| different eyes of those who knv\v" him, loved him, hated him during his years of creating a vast, one- man empire. Welles tackled a difficult job in bringing to the screen a complete | portrait of a colorful personage. AUSTRALIAN But, Yy figuratively circling around and arcund the central character of | Kane, each time revealing a new aspect of the man and his ideas and ideuls, Welles presents a clear- | cut picture of the impulsive, ruth- less, charming, capricious individual he has chosen to describe. The re- | sult is rated a cinematic triumph, especial'y in the portrayal of Kane's | relations with his two wives, bo'h of whom loved him, and both of whom ieft him because he would | not surrender to love except on his | own te ms. —— - Marvin Kristan s~ | \ Honored at Sunday | | Picnic at Auk Beach Honoring Marvin Kristan, who is leaving for the South after be- ing a house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Wallis George for the last two| months, Miss Maydelle George was | hostess at a picnic at Auk Beach yesterday afternoon.

Page told the reporters here that “if we permit the Japanese to mob- ilize all resources in captured Asia it may lengthen the war by several years. It will be only wishful think- ing to believe Germany is on the verge of collapse for lack of food. From war material from Nazi equip- ment captured recently we learned the equipment is just as good as ever indicating no production short- age.” > SONGTONE hearing aids for the hard of hear- ing.
