BY KEY PITTMAN
United States senator and DemOcra

United states senator ana DemOcFaC
Of Nevada
(Copyright, 1895. International News
Service)
I think that the pending neu'
trality legislation is the most
definite expression Of neutrality
that has ever been enacted by
this country, or any other.
There is no doubt in my mind
that it will do more to keep us
out of foreign war than any other
step or act we could take or
enact.
It has been contended that for
a neutral to change its policy
after war breaks out is an unneu.
trail act, and that in the nature
of things it tends to deprive one
or more Of the warning powers Of
privileges it possessed before the
change of policy.
On the other hand, it is con-
tended that If there is threat Of
war, the change of policy will then
be construed as directed at one Of
the warning powers. If either one
of these contentious were sound.
then it would be almost impossible
for a neutral government to ever
change its policy.
The Foreign Relations Commit
tee Of the Senate was pronouncing
the policy of this Government
with regard to wars that might
break out anywhere in the world.
It did not intend that the
action be construed as any ex-
preston with regard to any
threatened conflict such as that
which might involve Italy and
Ethiopia.
Whether we will make its arms
embargo features a permanent
policy remains to be decided by the
next Congress.
The reason for the decision to
make the embargo operative until
early next year was that the date
included would give sufficient
time for the new Congress which
conveneS in January to decide
this question for itself.

heights, members Of the family,
including the widow, Mrs. Betty

When asked concerning a pro-

The Washington times., 1935-08-24

In appreciation, the citizens OF
Claremore named their leading
hotel the Will Rogers, q six-story
building which he said had more
bath rooms than Buckingham
Palace" On receiving word Of
this honor, Will said:
81 used to envy General
Grant and Jesse James because
they had cigars named after
them. But. shucks, now I've
kinda got it on 'em."
In recent years Will appeared
less on the stage and became
more identified with Hollywood.
One of his most successful stage
appearances, and one which was
motivated purely by friendship,
was his substitution for Fred
Stone in the musical comedy.
'"Three Cheers" when Stone was
injured in an airplane crash in
1928. Will Cancelled all his own
contracts, flew across the coun-
try, and kept the show going in
his own inimitable way.
Doubted Ability
While in Hollywood, Will was
noted among the movie people for
his humility. It is said that he
sincerely doubted mis- ability to do
justice to almost every role which
he portrayed.
Ben Burman, The author Of
"Steamboat Around the Bend"
Wills last picture (Which will he
released in September), tells the
story that Will came to him when
work was begun on the production
and said:
ben, think you've got q
grand yarn here, and I like my
part, but 1 ShO' am afraid that
I'm not going to be able to play
it the way it ought to be done"
The sets on which Will worked
were VIGOROUSLY hard to visit, and
many prominent people would be
turned away, but some old COW
hand friend of Wills, or a pal

ALL CLASSES
BACK SHRINE

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. "a CU.S).
Hollywood was back to its nor
NAL routine today, saddened by
its final farewell on Thursday
to Will Rogers, but firm in its
belief that an enduring memorial
to the kindly cowboy philosopher
must be devised and erected here.
Studio workers, from humble
messenger boys to famous play"
ers and noted executives, wanted
the public-at-large to be able to
share in plans for the memorial,
but were insistent that those
who knew the beloved actor and
wit most intimately should be
permitted to carry out the major
portion of the work.
Business Joins In
Meanwhile, business and pro-
fessional men and women Of
downtown Los Angeles enrolled
themselves among the ranks Of
those who loved Will Rogers, who
desire that his memory shall en-.
dure through the ages. From the
sports world there also came
pledges of cooperation.
Lou Qaro, wrestling promoter,
announced that he would donate
$500 to a memorial fund. and
would set aside 10 per cent Of the
gross receipts Of his next program
as the contribution Of wrestling
fans. He said:
81 heartily approve Of the idea
for a memorial"
Miss Marion Davies crystalized
the sentiment for a memorial
when she wrote a letter to the
Los Angeles Examiner last Tues
day. She suggested that the
Hearst newspapers sponsor the
move throughout the nation.
Friends Speak
Here are few statements today
from workers in studios:
Katherine Robinson, writer's
secretary:
"At the studio Mr.. Rogers al.
ways had a kind word for every.
one. More than that, there were
countless times when he quietly
aided studio unfortunates but
never revealed his identity to
those he helped. To subscribe
to memorial to him would be
an honor"
Ida Greenfield, wardrobe mis-
treSS:
whether we knew Mr.. Rogers
personally or mot, everybody felt
that he was q kind, wise older
brother who spoke for those of
us who could not find the right
word. The idea Of keeping his
memory eternal is simply grand"
PHILOSOPHY PRAISED
Hal Mohr, cameraman:
people generally do not real
ize the influence of Will Rogers
hOmely philosophy. I join whole.
heartedly with the plan for .
memorial to him."
Mickey Marigold, still photog-
rapher:
"WilI Rogers was one man in
q million and I hope the plan
for a memorial goes over in .
big way. Everybody / know Is
for it,"
Ann Medwick, secretary:
"The wonderful memorial Serv.
ice for Will Rogers convinced
me more than ever that the pro-
posed permanent monument to
carry on his name is q won.
derful idea"
