By the Associated Press. JUAN LES PINS, France, June 18.— George Graham Bullen, a sergeant in the Lafayette Escadrille during the World War, and one of six Americans who later flew for France in the Mo- rocco campaign, was killed off the coast here Sunday. A fast motor boat on which he was a passenger flung him overboard in making a sharp turn and the propeller severed his spine. Bullen was born in Kenosha, on De- cember 24, 1895. He had lived in Miami, Fla,, but more recently resided at Antibes near here. The motor boat Nikita belongs to an Englishman ed ep. Death was instantaneotis for the body was cut in two at the waist. GERMAN “FAMILY LAW” IS UPHELD IN RULING Bupreme Court at Leipzig Calls Croy-Leishman Match Mes- alliance, By the Associated Press. BERLIN, June 18—The supreme court at Lelpzig has decided that the marriage of the Duke of Croy and Miss Nancy Leishman, daughter of the for- mer American Ambassador to Germany, which was dissolved in 1922, was a mesalllance from the legal point of view. (The Duke of Croy and Miss Leish- man were married in Switzerland in 1913. They were divorced in 1922. The duke was married to Helen Lewis of Albany, N. Y. in 1924.) A divorce also has been granted fo the Duke of Anhalt, who recently mar- ried Fraulein Stickrodt, actress daugh- ter of a German bandmaster, by the Berlin courts. ‘The “family law” of the German princely houses, which regdrds the mar- riages of their members with the bour- geoisie as a _mesalliance, thus has been upheld by these col isions.

JUNE 18, 19 MERGERINDATES TELEVISON BOOST Hollywood Believes Film-Ra- dio Deal Will Hasten Wireless “Talkies.” no one can predict. At any rate, its first use will probably be the broadcast- ing of sound film strips for reception and projection in theaters. Then will come the home television set, with all !hn’ it portends for the future of the movies. Indicates Giant Chain. Another interpretation upon the Par- amount-Columbia merger is that it means that ultimate formation of one glant chain broadcasting company, or at least that the two rival national net- works will come under common control. For some months it has been bruited in Wall Street that a merger of Para- mount and the Radio Corporation of America is in prospect. The radio cor- poration has developed the ‘“Photo- phone” for sound film recording, and on the lot immediately adjacent to Para- mount’s in Hollywood its subsidiary, Radio-Keith-Orpheum, is already en- gaged in the production of motion pic- tures. Only a fence separates the Para- mount and R-K-O Studios. ‘The Radio Corporation of America is also the leading developer of television. Its chief engineer, Dr. Alfred K. Gold- smith, is authority for a statement during the Institute of Radio Engineers convention at Washington recemfy that television is very close at hand. Under Single Control. ‘The merger of the film producing | subsidiary of R. C. A. with Paramount | is highly problematical, bt what will | be the situation if they do merge? ‘The Radlo Corporation of America owns 50 per cent interest in the National Broad- casting Co., the largest of the radio chain organizations, and Paramount holds & half interest in Columbia, the only substantial rival of the National Broadcasting Co. at present. This interlocking would obviously place the two big chains under virtually single control. All this is speculation, but speculation BY MAI/!'HN CODEL., LOS ANGELES, Calif., June 18.— Hollywood’s raszle and dazzle will be brought before the camera’s eye and the microphone simultaneously to be broad- cast to the threater-going world through the medium of television—that, at least, is one of the interpretations being placed here upon the purchase by Para- mount-Famous-Lasky Corporation of half interest in the nation-wide Colum- bia Broadcasting System. Officials who negotiated the deal have not yet returned, but Adolph Zukor, grel lent of Paramount, and William aley, president of Columbia, are due in Hollywood shortly to give their own surprised colleagues a more detailed ex- lanation of the hints cast by Mr. aley’s statement to the effect that “sclentific developments have intro- duced the voice to the motion picture, and there is every prospect that similar developments will shortly introduce vision into rgdio.” Television is in the offing; of that the ublic is confidently assured by the timony of eminent radio engineers. Just how far away or how near it is, in the movie and radio industries is often a realized fact next day. Com- ruuan today is the life blood of audi- le broadcasting, and particularly in the chain fleld. How the authorities at Wi n will look upon a curbing of competition in broadcasting is doubtful. the other hand, the introduction of the new art of television may toss to limbo the need of perpetuation theories of indi- vidual enterprise that may have be- come antiquated with the advent of a new science.
