For three years we have had nothing
but America is fundamentally sound"
1t should have been America Is funda-
mentally cuckoo"
The worse of we get the louder we
laugh. which is a great thing. And.
every American International banker
ought to have printed ON his office door,
Alive today by the grace of a nation
that has a sense OF humor."
Innaugarations. bank holidays and
all come so fast on us in the last few
weeks that we have had plenty of ex~
element. wanted to go to Washington
to see a Democrat take over the Coun-
try, but we was trying to pick out a
story to do for my next movie.
This thing OF getting stories is more
OF a job than making EN-. But don't take
this as a plea and start sending in some
thai you have written, send EN- to the
studio but don't sent EN- to me. Outside
eA tAA haA AHdt wallis YUu III IGE~
omend him for the Post Office, there la
no pest as great as the person that has
written a scenario that will "Just Fit
YOU. They talk about a lot OF money
wasted In the movies. Say its wasted In
the paper that scenarios are written
on. | don't mean that there is not
maby some good ones, but they are
mighty scarce. You just cant become a
dramatist over night. But 1t keeps peo-
pie out OF some other devilment, SO /
guess no harm is done. Send EN- to the
magazines. there Just don't seem to be
a story SO bad that some magazine amt
bad enough to lit 1t.
Speaking about the movies, we all
took 1t on the chin In the way OF n
volunteer layof for a while. That was
IN addition to practically all OF us who
are not receiving what we used too.
which OF course we don't expect. | tell
you with all the knocking and abuse
we get from some OF the Jealous and
envious writers who are always telling
whats the matter with the movies. they
have got a mighty loyal bunch of people
working for en-. When you read some
nlab about somebody telling how over
paid the movie stars are, In the first
place our salaries are always overestj-
mated But they don't stop to think that
a movie star is one person that cant
be o%verpaid. that is not for long. There
IS no other business in the world where
the company you work for know inst
TO a penny just what you are worth to
them.
Is there any way checking up on a
bank president. or vice president to see
what he car actually by his W efforts
draw into his bank? Is there any other
business you can think OF outside OF
stage or screen where they know lust
exactly how good You are to them In
dollars and cents? Greta Carlo don't
get that dough because she Is a long
all SWede, she drags II into a box office
and they know just how much. They
can tell you to a dime what Deitrick
can draw into a box office. So thew
are all worth what they can get. and
they can only get what they can draw.
lnere comes a time soon enough in
their lives when they don't get 1t. And
d 0 must remember that a the
present income tax rate the govern.
ment take So cents OF every dollar from
any OF the high-prieed stars. You see
thai hires many a politician, and gives
OF us a little license to holler how
government is run, even IL its only
a boiler.
Now get this in our laws, II we de-
rived the same amount OF money from
