FEDERALs ARE PAVING
 WAY ID ABANDON THE
 MATANUSKA STATION

To make arrangements for the abandonment of the United States Agricultural Experiment Station at Matanuska, Charles H. Flory, AL aska commissioner for the Depart ment of Agriculture, departed from Seward Friday for Matanuska.
 He is accompanied by H. w. AL berts, director of experiment sta tions in Alaska, and his admins trative assistant, Filler Hansen.
 MT. Flory will go to Fairbanks for a consultation with Dr. Charles E. Bunnell, president of the Agri- cultural College and School of Mines after completing his work at Matanuska. What the future of the station will be is still a matter of conjecture.
 Several proposals looking toward continuance of the work there on a probably small scale have been ad- vanced to tn e department, but none of them have been accepted, MT. Flory said. It is desired to keep it on some kind of an op- erating basis if possible, he added, but definite plans to that end have not been adopted.
 The failure of the Secretary of Agriculture to include estimates for continued operations of all eX- pertinent stations in the annual budget of that department is re- spOnSible for their abandonment. Sitka as we'll as MatanuSka will be closed down at the end of the cur rent fiscal year.

 The four are MT. and Mrs. Harry Balhiser of Elliston, Mont, and their two children. MT. BalhiseI is a brother of Charles, veteran AL aska Railroad locomotive engineer with whom they will visit during the summer.
 Harry is also a railroader and has been connected with the transpor- tation headquarters staff of the Northern Pacific for many years

Had to Keep Her

In a certain film studio on
the coast there is a female
casting director who is hated
by practically everyone on the
coast. She occupies a very big
position, but she hasn't the
slightest idea of what it's all
about.
The woman is hated mainly
because Of her oVerbearing ma.
ture. She insults people at
every turn and seems to think
that the picture business would
close up without her. Our
graVeyards are filled with many
such people like her.
A celebrated author was a
recent visitor to the studio in
question. Before he reached
the executive with whom he
had the appointment he was
questioned at length by this
woman and grossly inSulted.
When he finally stepped into
the boss's office he was furious.
Il don't want to criticize
your studio" said the author,
angrily, "but I have been in
suited twice in 10 minutes by
some woman who says she is
your casting director"
The executive sighed and
nodded his dome
Il know" he responded, sad
ly. Il know. Many people have
told me the same thing. But
I must keep her"
You must" exclaimed the
author. That's strange. How
did such a woman get a posi-,
ton like that?"
WELL" replied the big boss,
alphabetically, sit happened
this way. She was the nurse
maid for my youngest boy.
When he got too old for a maid
/ had to find another position
for her. So l made her my
casting director" ..

T Telephone Talk
With London
Final 9. K.

Two of the most important fig
ures in the motion picture indus
try visited Washington yeSter-
day-Louis B. Mayer and Joseph
M. Schenck-and both were White
House guests at luncheon.
Schenck was here to get the
final ,. K, by long-distance tele-
phone from London, on an ar
rangement whereby Tilted Artists
will distribute British and Domin.
ion films, not only in this coun.
try. but all over the world. The
o. K. came through, according to
schedule, and quite a function
was made of the occasion.
In London, banquet of promi-
nent film personageS was being
held to mark the event. Nor.
mally, Mr.. Schenck probably
would have received the message
in New York or Hollywood, but,
in view of his engagement with
President Hoover, the call was
handled for him at local hotel.
After he had spoken to Lon.
don, he introduced Mary Pick
ford, who chatted briefly from
Hollywood. Other United Artists
stars also participated.
Mr.. Schenck explained that
British films have not before had
a suitable outlet to the world mar
ket. lie said:
"In the silent days the film
had a universal language, and,
while that is no longer true,
there is no reason why English
films should not be popular
here.
"The chief need the British
producers have faced has been
a wider market, so they could
make more ambitious pictures,
comparable to the ones we
make here. That, l believe, will
be possible under the new ar
rangement just worked out.
I'VE plan to have some Of
the English movie stars come
to HOllywOOd--nOt to influence
them to initiate American
fiIms-but to enable them to
learn what the American pub
lie wants. They will make at
least one picture here.
Jack Buchanan. one Of the
foremost of British stars, is
already widely known here, not
SO much because of his many
appearances on the stage, but
because he played in Monte
Carlo which was shown every
where"
