Hollywood-The business of making pictures is sufficiently ex- citing and glamorous to talk about.
 But by no means all of the con- versation of movie folk has to do with shop-new types of micro phones makeup, assignments, and that sort of thing. Many of them like to tell of experiences quite apart from their film ca reers, and having nothing to do with their screen personalities" John Drew, uncle of John Bar rymore, for example, is credited with the remark that "it took an earthquake to get him out of bed and the army to put him to work" Barrymore was in San Francis co during the 1906 earthquake. He was shaken up and tumbled out of bed. Later, wandering through the streets in a sort of daze, he was put to work by sol- diers with pick and shovel clear ing away debris.
 Pretty Paper
 An incident Barrymore himself he was on a hunting trip. He be- came friendly with an old Eskimo and visited his home. Two pieces of paper were framed and hanging on the wall of the Eskimo's shack. They proved to be two checks for $10,O00 each from a mining com pany for the purchase of land.
 T asked the Eskimo why he had never cashed them," relates Barrymore. "'Why should l., he replied T have no use for money and they look pretty hanging on the wall.'"
 Marie's Tumble
 Marie Dressler recalls her first public appearance, which was in a church entertainment in the role of Cupid, with bow and arrow, and draped with gauge.
 1T was placed on a tall pedestal and warned by my mother not to get off," says Miss Dressler. "The pedestal started to topple. But I stayed on until it crashed to the stage"
 She remembers a picture in which she was supposed to be drinking beer. The scene had to be re-made A times.
 People probably imagined I was drinking real beer, and were envious, but I wasn't" she says. Ut was some sort of concotion they mixed for me and I've had indigestion ever since."

 tions Be Asked

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-Action to limit high salaries of big busl- ness leaders is privately forecast in official circles after the Fed eral Trade Commission announced asking 2,0O0 companies to furnish data on salaries of their executives and directors.

LONDON, Oct. 19.-Heav- fly armed guards pace the Austrian line behind barbed wire in many sectors.

Persons with democratic tendencies
