CORNEL WILDE, AS GAY BANDIT, NOW AT CAPITOL The son of Robin Hood, dashing lover, outlaw, adventurer, swordsman, will slash his way into the hearts of everyone at the Capitol Theatre, where Columbia Pictures' technicolor production, "The Bandit of Sherwood Forest," will star Cornel Wilde as Robert of Nottingham, the ron, and featuring Anita Louise, Jill Esmond and Edgar Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The feature will be shown end of the week. His arms arc Irresistible, his -sword is unconquerable, his ad ventures Incomparable and Cornel Wilde Is the perfect choice for this latest movie version of a time and scene which Is forever romantic In the hearts of all. Now, it comes to the screen in a magnificently stirring spectacle of love and derring-do. Derived from the noval "Son of Robinhood'" by Paul A. Castle-ton, the story tells of the rescue of the young King Henry III (Maurice Tauzln) of England after he is imprisoned and threatened with death by the villainous Regent (Henry Dani-ell). Caught- after the rescue, Robert demands the right to duel for his life, which is the foundation for one of the most exciting scenes not only of this picture, but of many a one in many a day. But that is only one of many, as thrill follows thrill, backgrounded by Technicolor which will make you gasp at its beauty.

GERMAN HEAVY INDUSTRY NEEDED TO HELP REBUILDING OF EUROPE CHICAGO- -Even at the risk of restoring Germany's war potential, its heavy industry must be revived, according to Prof. Roger Adams, former special adviser to Lieut. Gen. Lucius D. Clay, deputy military governor of the American Occupation Zone in Germany. Trofessor Adams received the Priestly medal, highest American chemistry award for "distinguished services as an organic chemist." In his speech to the American Chemical Society' he warned that drastic Allied restrictions on chemical and other industries which might help rejuvenate the defeated country ire among the greatest obstacles to the rehabilitation of all Europe. IIALANCED ECONOMY "It is better in my opinion to have Germany attain a balanc-r-d economy, cvenlf a much arger proportion bf German war potential Industries must be 1 etaincd than is now planned. Proper control of .such Industries by competent representatives of the four occupying powers, perhaps over an indeter Hotel. . . arrivals Prince Kupert C. W. Goodwin, Toronto; Mrs, I-'. W.

Professor Adams declared existing conditions arc strangling German enterprise and bringing the population dally closer to starvation with a resulting feeling of hopelessness pervading the entire nation. ALL ZONKS AFFECTED . He said that in addition to the crippling curtailment of heavy Industry, most vital part of the country prewar industrial life, the Allies' 'delay in carrying out the Potsdam agreement to treat Germany as an economic unit is wreaking havoc in all four occupation, zones. "At present," he asserted, "In none of the four areas can the occupation be designated as successful. The drastic conditions of economic life stemming from the firmly maintained trade barriers are too apparent for contention. "There appears to be no firm basis for the future re-estab-llshment of a normal, non-ag-grcsslve state, willing and eager to earn Its way back to acceptance into world accord." Mrs. O.
