movie headliners who win be In the 1melight
during the coming year.
Seventeen-year- brunei Jean Parker has
just had her first starring vehicle released.
After o brief IS months In pictures, due partly
to her exceptional talent and partly to the
demand for naive actresses. she was given the
starring role In "Have Heart"
Jean would have arrived" anyway. OF that
there's no doubt No girl with such nkable
personality, such beauty and such acting
ability could possibly be kept down. However,
the sudden change from the ultra-sophisti-
Gated sex dramas to the simple and straight
forward romantic films hastened her advance
ment.
Now that she Is on top, Jean Is one girl you
can bet will stay there, too. Making pictures
Is o serious business with her.
A MOTHER who has won the coveted star
ring honors is Margaret SULLIVAN. blond.
tomboyish and very outspoken. The two pic

Yesterday" and Little Man, What Now?"
have received some criticism from the self
appointed censors Of flrndom. But they have
been unable to flnd fault with this grand little
trouper personally.
Even in "Only Yesterday" In which flm she
strayed from the path Of Righteousness and
paid the fun penalty for 90 doing, she was
surrounded withsan air Of respectability. That
was due almost entirely to her own personality
and charm, which Just wouldn't permit offen-
siveness, regardless Of the situation In which
she might be placed. There Ii something about
her manner, her sincerity which makes one
say. "She can't really be bad"

prowess Of any boy In her neighborhood. She
hasn't yet reached the point where such activi-
ties no longer are pleasures. And she is
STRAIGHTFORWARD about everything. The same
honesty Of purpose which Ia 20 noticeable in
the girl herself.
Perhaps that Is what makes her such good
actress. There 10 no make-believe. Everything
she does is real But still studio executives are
taking no chances on having her condemned
because Of slightly irregular screen situations.
30 she now Is making "The Good Fairy" from
which there can't possibly be any kickback.
A second Jean who Is coming to the fore Is
Jean Muir, as blond as Miss Parker is brunei
and possessed Of many Of the same human and
nkable qualities. Both girls have been In the
pictures about the same length Of time. Both
are actresses Of whom the industry may well
be proud.
4 h1ss MUIR doubted that she would last
W. more than six months in Hollywood. She
thought the studio executives had gone Just a
little bit psychopathic when they brought her
out here and she was sure that her first opinion
had been confirmed when they exercised the
option which Il keeping her here That being
the case, she probably will think they have
gone completely cuckoo when they start giving
her star billing in the very near future-as
they are certain to do.
To any one who spends much time In Holly
wood, Jean Ia delightfully."- refreshing. For one
thing, she's definite In her opinions and direct
In her speech. She never stops to wonder,
els Il oil right to say this?" The fact that she
thinks itsis sufficient. And she never makes
an obvious attempt to please any one. as so
many in the film colony do. Beautiful Madge

Rochelle Hudson came from Claremore,
Okla, at the age of II. She made auspi-
cious start, and for a while 1T looked as though
brilliant career was to be laid right in her lap.
Then she went into q slump, pulling herself
out only by the strongest perseverance during
the last year. Now she's going strong again
and fortunately for her she doesn't look the
least bit worldly on the screen. That quality
which was o drawback in the past now has be-
come her greatest asset.
Another Of somewhat the same type as Ro-
chene Is Dorothy Wilson. Plucked from q sec
retarial desk in the R-K-O studio, Dorothy was
launched as an actress in q leading role without
any experience whatever behind her. But she
made good because there was q winsomeness
to her personality which was at once attract
ing and sympathetic.
That Is just what the public wants today, and
It should carry Dorothy to greater success than
she ever anticipated.
All Of these girls are already known to the
public, Of course, but now they are about to
acquire genuine prominence in the movie world.

Of those things, however, is more in

personalities to the topmost pinnacles Of hlm-
dom.
In all probability not a one Of these crusaders
realizes that he Is enacting the role Of star
maker. II any did, they probably would be
trying to find places for their daughters, nieces
and friends In Hollywood's gigantic film fac
tories. Yet actually these reform bodies could
be placed right along with D. w. Griffith, Mack
Sennett and Cecil B. De Mile as the makers
Of new stars.
OF course, the reformers did not personally
select the girls they started on the road to
stardom. But 1t is going to be largely UP to
them to approve or disapprove Of the new
actresses who will be boosted by studio execu-
tiyes. So the success or failure Of these young
ladies really lies in the hands Of the clean

very few child performers ever to
shape o successful career after at
tanning maturity.
Also blond, Madge, too, possesses
o wholesomeness which puts her
beyond criticism and establishes
her as the type Of girl who easily
could be held up as q model for
all others.
With the demand for clean pic
lures she Is sitting on top Of the
world. Her presence alone gives o
hlm an air Of respectability. That

Hollywood knows In real life. Never
once has the breath of scandal

The new cycle Of pictures wasn't
at all necessary to make q place
for Josephine Hutchinson on the

was her performance in Alice in

be a desirable asset to the film in

A THOROUGHLY trained ac-

CHANGE PREDICTED
IN BANK INSURANCE
Administration Seen Ready to
Hold Full Security to
$4,000.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The administration is preparing
recommendations to Congress for
changes in the bank deposit insur-
ance law, which probably will elemi-
nate the present unlimited liability
of member banks when the fund be-
comes permanent July l.
This was made known just as the
Senate Banking Committee decided
to ask the Treasury's views on a pro-
posal to extend the temporary deposit
Insurance plan for one year in lieu
of the permanent scheme scheduled
to go into effect July l.
Secretary Morgenthau, Tom K.
Smith, his banking assistant, and E.
G. Gennett, director of the Deposit
Insurance Corporation, conferred on
the proposed changes today. II was
understood afterward that a recon-
mendation would be sent to the Senate
Banking Committee within a day or
two. -,
Under the temporary plan deposits
up to $2,500 are guaranteed and the
banks are subject to an assessment
of one-half of per cent of the in
surable deposits, with another possible
assessment of one-half of / per cent.
When the fund becomes permanent
July /, assessments would become url-
limited, requirement which has been
opposed strongly by the banks.
Recommendations under considera-
tion were believed to contemplate
holding the inSurance-in-full to de-
posts of $500 or possibly $4,000.
The present membership of the cor
poration approximates 13,400 banks
outbof a total in the Nation of ap-
proximately 14,600.

LOWER D. c. TAXES.
ASKED BY BLANT0N.
Texan Seeks to Report Ap-
preparation Bill Carrying
Reduction.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.

Efforts to report a District appro-
priation bill for the next fiscal year.
which would allow a reduction in the
tax rate to Sl20, will be made by
Representative Blanton. Democrat, of
Texas, a member of the subcommittee
in charge of the District budget.
Blanton also declared today his be-
lief that the approximately $500, 900
accumulated surplus to the credit OF
the District should be used to start
work on the new municipal building
project.
AT this time of unemployment such
a large amount of money which can
be used for permanent public i'm
provement should not be allowed to
remain idle" he said. He explained
that he will support any use Of the
surplus funds that the District Com
missioners and the people of the
District desire.
At the same time Blanton empha-
sized his personal conviction that no
change will be made in the lump-sum
contribution from the Federal Gov
ernment for support of the Capital.
He believes the District appropria-
tions bill, when reported to the House,
will be based on Federal contriou-
ton of $6,500,000.
Following the action Of the last
Congress and the action of the Budget
Bureau and the President in submit

tribution of S6,500,000 designated, "
said Blanton, Il am convinced that
the present Congress will follow the
recommendation of the President.

MCARL RULE AIDS
PART-PAY WORKER
Wage Can Be Increased When
Quarters, Subsistence and
Laundry Is Lost.

An employe who gets part of his
salary in cash and the rest in such
allowances as quarters, subsistence
and laundry, is entitled to have the
cash payment increased to make up
any difference that results from the
inability Of the Government to fur
nish these allowances, Controller Gen
eral McCarl ruled today.
The decision was given to the Vet
erans' Administration, which was in
doubt as to the action to be taken
In view Of previous rulings that the
cash payment could not be increased
because of fluctuating value of al
lowanceS.
This latter policy has been sharply
attacked by employees. who have
pointed out the inconsistency of the
Government cutting pay on the
ground that living expenses have de-
creased and then concurrently re-
fusing to lower its own charges where
1t supplies accommodations.
