For a Dry Scalp

For q DrV Oc0ip
When the scalp becomes too
dry. the weekly sham mpooing
should be stopped and the
hair washed only once Q
month. Then Q coed oily tre-
atment should be given re-
gularly. The following is an
excellent one and will make
the scslp normal. Use one
tablespoon of Lanoline. two
tablespoons of Vaseline and
a few drops of choice per-
fume. Mix all and massage

JAMES CAGNEY CONTENDS THAT ACTORS OFTEN ARE SMARTER
Ast0ire Sails
For Vacation

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. S.-Fred
Astaire, dancing king Of the
films, sailed at noon Wednesday
on the Normandie for England,
carrying out a vacation plan he
has had in mind for more than
a year. He has been wanting to
visit his sister, Lady Cavendish,
the former Adele Astaire, Of mu-
steal comedy fame, for a long
time, but studio assignments
have interfered. However, AS
taire has just finished his latest
picture for RKO Radio, Swing
Time" and he took the oppor-
tunity for the European jaunt.
Since making his last trip to
England the dancing star has con-
solidated his position as one OF
screendom's brightest luminaries,
having appeared in two hits dur
ing the 1885 season, TOP Hat"
and Follow the Fleet" which
marked a new high for musical
comedy in films. Roberta" Gay
Divorcee" and Flying Down to
Rio" were the earlier pictures
which established Astaire as star.
While abroad Fred expects to
see some of the Olympic games in
Berlin, although the track and
field events will be completed be-
fore he reaches the German CAPT.
tai. He is interested in the swim
ming competition because Of the
strength of the opposing teams,
notably that of the japanese, who,
he expects, will give the American
team a good run for it's money.

said some very significant
things in an interview with
Cecilia Ager, of Variety.
Among them:
'Top-flight actors, he said,
don't get up there for no
reason. Anybody who gets
somewhere in a business
doesn't get there for no rea-
son. They get there by vir-
tue of their intelligence,
their perception, their knowl-

awareness of their possibili-

tations. There's a cock-eyed
superstition around Cagney
said, that actors are dopes.
That they know nothing of
writing, direction, stories,
that they have no taste, no
Judgment. That they're the
last people on earth to know
what's good for them. That
they can succeed, and do sue

themselves wholly in the
hands of wiser men. Let Les

"Cagney can name, and did,
many more actors whose in

to agree with Cagney on this
latter group, because they
came to pictures bit players
and so no matter what
heights they've since at
tanned, in the eyes of the
producers they're still bit
players. Just lucky, that's
all. They happened to be

the producers did all the
rest. That's what the pro-
ducers think.

NEW BLAST
AT FRANCE

ROME, Jan. 81 G.N.SJ.-With
Italy's economic and manpower
newly modified on a full war
time basis against the possibili-
ties of another Europe-wide con-
flict following yesterdays cabinet
meeting, the official press today
pointedly emphasized that Italy
remains the major ia tor in
European equilibrium.
Popolo di Roma editorially gave
warning to those who believe
that Italy is weakened as a re-
suit of the Italo-Ethiopian strug-
gle, and that Italy is nailed down
in Africa. as we'll as those who
are building air-caStles on the
consequences of Italy's African
engagement.
Italy Is not weakened by
the Ital ethiopian conflict,
either militarily or politically"
On the contrary, the newspaper
said:
"It'S powers have been Singu-
larly strengthened in both fields.
This is another reality which it
would be well for all Europe to
Observation-Disclosures their de.
greeS Of friendship for u.s."
That last blast is believed to
have been aimed at France, which
Italy accused of not living up to
the year-old Franco-Italian friend
ship agreement, while the earlier
denial that Italy was nailed
down" in Africa is interpreted as
meaning that italy is prepared to
meet any attack from the north.
Among Premier Mussolini's acts
yesterday was creation of a new

for mountain fighting.
The stress on Italy's strength at
home conceded with warnings in
the press that an oil embargo

Of Nations experts at Geneva

Europe.

about 100000 applications will
be left on hand.
The excess in the number of
copies printed and the number
required has been ordered by Of
ftcialS of the Veterans Bureau, it
was explained today, to make GER
tain that enough copies are dis
tributed to permit every veteran
to get one.
Over 100000 applications
have already been run off the
presses at the Government Print

ample for the approximately 81
100000 eligible veterans. To date,
100000 have been placed in the
mails, for distribution throughout
the country and to United States
possessions outside of the CONT
mental boundaries.
Only an Estimate
The number of eligible veterans
can not be given exactly. Only an
estimate can be made, because
about 100000 eligible to obtain
adjuSted-service certificates have
never done so. Added to the
100000 veterans who obtained
certificates, the total number of
eligibles comes to 100000.
Those who have refused to &C

divided into two classes. The first
class includes those who know of

but who either diSapprove Of the

The other class probably is in
