Einstein Working on "Interesting" Theory Geneva.—(J. T. A.) — Although not saying what it is, Dr. Albert Einstein, world-famous physicist and scientist, who is here to attend the meetings of the League of Nations Committee on Intellectual Cooperation, admitted that he is working on :: r.ew theory, one more vast than his Theory of Relativity. Asked about the subject matter of his latest experiments, he said it was more interesting than his previous contributions to scier.ee but he feels that "maybe people will think I am a fool whea they read it." Best known for his *vork as a scientist, Prof. Einstein is giving much time here to the* problems of child education. He is of the opinion, that the _*ague of Nations can do greater work than to aid in improving the elementary schools of the world. The other . members of the Committee here are amaze' at Dr. Einstein's frankness and the sincerity with which he approached all problems.

Belasco Predicts End of Talking Pictures Atlantic City, N. J.—The talking picture is on its last legs,.the public having become tired of it, and a revival of interest in the silent films and legitimate theatres may soon be -expected. This was the statement made here last week by David Belasco, famous American-Jewish playwright and theatrical producer, in an interview given on the occasion of his -seventy-seventh birthday. "As the public is turning away from the talking pictures, it is ready to turn toward the silent picture again," declared Mr. Belasco, "and it is ready for a great revival of the legitimate stage. 1 regard the future of the legitimate stage as extremely bright. I have been in the business a great many years, and every year I have heard the same talk that the stage is going to the bow-wows, but the fact is that good play will command as much patronage today as it ever did, or more."
