Cy Virginia Val ' RECENTLY returned from Sweden, a man who has been connected with the mo tion picture business for some twenty-five years made a first-hand report to this col umn on the subject of Greta Garbo in her homeland. Her countrymen, he said, aren't tremendously im pressed by her success. They like her pictures, go in droves to see them, but they feel that of course she ought to be a success just a case of home-town girl mak ing good. They are Inclined to resent her aloofness they feel that she ought to realize that they wouldn't dream of intruding on her privacy, and that she doesn't have to treat them as she does the movie fans of other countries. He had several photographs of her, taken in he days when she was a hat model. They were sweet, rather simpery, giving no hint of what she was to become. Apparently the best way to make really good motion pictures is to send an American picture-making unit to England to do the work.

GREER GARSON plished In that way, and it's one of the best pictures that has been re leased in a long time. Metro sent its unit over, Robert Donat and Greer Garson turned in beautiful performances, Sam Wood did a swell job of directing, and there you are! Incidentally, "Goodbye, Mr. Chips" presents us with a new glamour girl Greer Garson has flaming red hair and green eyes. Men think she's gorgeous, women aren't sure whether she is really beautiful or not. This is her first picture. She came to Hollywood from England, where she had appeared on the stage and done some work in television, ex pecting to go to work at once. She spent a year in waiting to go to work. She was seriously ill, with spinal trouble. She was sent back to England, to do her first picture, and will prob ably be sent back again to do her second, "The Doctor's Dilemma." Paramount thinks it has star ma terial in a young man named Bob I'reston and the movies sadly need young men who are stellar material right now, what with three heart smashers getting married practi cally in a bunch! The trio, Gable, Power and Taylor, will still be tre mendously popular, of course, but many a girl who has liked their pic tures is going to look about for an unmarried star to fill the niche in her affections left vacant by the marriage of one of them. So Paramount majy offer such girls Bob Prestcn. Mb's made four pictures so far (notably "Union Pacific") but he's had stage expe rience, in the stock company launched by Tyrone Power's mother in Los Angeles. If you're Kate Smith fan you'll have to save a different hour for her broadcasts, beginning in Octo ber. When she returns from her summer vacation she'll move into the nine o'clock (Eastern Standard Time) spot on Friday nights which has been filled this year by Orson Welles and bis Mercury Theater. For four years she has been on at eight on Thursdays, and as she rates fifth among all shows in national popularity surveys she doesn't have to fear the other A-l shows that take the air on Thursday nights.

Feed Market RALEIGH, June 13 Feed mar kets continued to decline during the first week in June with season al slacking in demand, states the U. S. and North Carolina Depart ments of A 'ivi cult lire in the week ly Market News Service Review. Wheat feeds dronned sharply as consumption decreased with im proved pastures. Trices of liil toetein concentrates were not materially changed, while price of jnost other feeds varied with local supply and demand condi tions. The index number of whole sale feedstufi's prices dropped to 104.0 compared with 108.3 las: week and 97.0 a year ago. The market price for farmer's stock Virginia type peanuts dur ing the past week has been fully firm, but litttle is being offered as growers are unwilling to sell at quoted prices for best stock. Nom inally on a delivered basis best jumbos are quoted at 3 3-4 to 3 7-8. a very few 4 cents; best bunch, 3 1-2 cents a few 3.60 cents and best shelling stock, 3 to 3 1-4 a few 3 3-S cents per pound. Extra large Virginia shelled weak ened slightly but other shelled and cleaned stock held about steady. Heavy shipments depressed po tato prices this week, but shipping point values are still 10 to 20 cents higher than a year ago. At the periods close 100 pound sacks of U. S. No. 1 North Carolina cob blers were quoted i eastern North Carolina at 1.40 to 1.50 and in New York at 1.70 to 2.00. A week ago North Carolina stock brought 2.00 to 2.25 in New York. Recent outstanding develop ments in the poultry and egg sit uation are the continued large re ceipts of eggs and the declie in the wholesale prices.

Prices paid net F.O.B. in Washing ton this week, however, were 1 cent higher on eggs candled and graded in Washington and on some classes of poultry. Mean while, current receipt, white eggs were unchanged along with most poultry offerings. At Chicago sharply lower steer prices were partially a reflection of slow moving anH lower whole sale dressed markets, a condition which is not unusual when hot and dry weather prevails over a wide area. Recent efforts to force fed steer and yearlings into substan. tially lower price ground finally resulted in a general decline on all killing cattle. Medium weight and heavy steers declined 50 cents to 1.00 at Chicago and yearlings that have been resisting continued price pounding also yielded 25-50 cets. Spring lambs tumbled 1.00 to 1.50 and shorn old crop refer ings lost 75 cents to 1.25. Hogs shared the decline, but less exten sively than other species, closing 10 to 25 cents off at Chicago. Prime steers topped at 2.75, hogs made 6.80 early, closed 6.65 down, while closely sorted native spring lambs reached 10.40, Idaho spring ers 10.35 and fed California Lambs 10.00. Not only beef steers but all other killing classes sold lower this week, the downturn in cluding yearling steers and cows, classes which heretofore develop ed noticeable resistance to price pounding.
