HOLLYWOOD, March 30.-AS
the cynical-minded around the lots
point out, it was quite q coinci-
dence for Jack Oakie and Venita
Warden to plan to be married on
the train when Jack just finished
doing the same thing on his Para
mount picture, FLORIDA Special"
Only his camera bride, Of course,
was not Miss Warden but Frances
Drake.
Bets were even In Hollywood
that Venita and Jack would decide
at the last minute to have the
ceremony performed elsewhere.
In any event, the railroad COM
pany proved quite an oblging aid
to Cupid, volunteering to hold the
Apache in Yuma as long as was
necessary and adding an aircondi-
toned car to the train so the
honeymoone could have q cool
trip across the country.
Pals of Clifford Odets, the
Broadway playwright t. will be
amused at this. OdetS does his
writing between midnight and s
a. m. and, when the words don't
flow freely, takes a walk to
clear his brain. He was thus en-
gagged the other 4 a. m, walking
hatlesS and with open shirt down
Wiltshire boulevard, when two radio
patrol officers hailed him down
and began to ask questions. Odets
told them he was a writer for Para
mount and lived in the Beverly
Wiltshire Hotel. They noted his
wild looking shock Of hair and
careless dress and were very skepti-
cal. It was minutes before he
finally convinced them he was
harmless.
The cream Of the recent jestS
was engineered at Twentieth Cen
tury-Fox, when Virginia Zanuck
brought a visitor on the lot who
is a double for Mrs. Roosevelt. A
quick-witted ribber saw the party
heading for the Poor Little Rich
Girl" set and telephoned the as
Sistant director cryptic message:
eff Mrs. Roosevelt comes on
the set, no photographs are to
be taken"
When Mrs. Zanuck and her
guest arrived to meet Shirley
Temple, the imagination Of the
troupe did the rest. There was a
tremendous air of suppressed ex-
citement. Still-men's fingers
fairly itched for their cameras.
Finally, Jack Haskell, dance di-
rector for the picture, could
stand it no longer. He came up
to the stranger and said:
II am Jack Haskell, Mrs.
Roosevelt"

Harry H. Peterson, serving his
second term as Attorney General
Of the State of Minnesota, from
the day he took office, has taken
an outstanding part in the battle
to protect and promote the high
est interests Of the people of this
state. Never before in any four
year period, have so many i'm
portant opinions been rendered and
never before have so many i'm
portant cases been won. Typical
of his courage is his persistent
fight against the exorbitant
charges paid by telephone users in
the Twin Cities.
Fights To Reduce Phone Rate
When Harry H. Peterson became
Attorney-General a proceeding was
pending before the Railroad and
Warehouse Commission to secure a
reduction of telephone rates in st.
Paul. The Attorney General prose
cuted this case with great vigor
which resulted in a decision order
ing a reduction Of the telephone
rates, in st. Paul, of over $500, 900
per year. By its decision the Com
mission ordered the telephone rates
for residence phones to be reduced

MatsOn's Return

Commission Urged

Supporters of Frank w. Matson,
Republican candidate for re-elec-

Warehouse Commission, in state
ment issued to the press praised
highly Mr.. Matson's ability as an
executive and administrator of one
of the states most important de-
partments. They urge his re-elec-
ton on Nov. Bird.
At present Mr.. Matson is chair
man of the commission. One of
the duties of this branch of state
government is to grade and weigh

from $3.50 per month to $2.75 and
on business phones from $1,000 per
month to $500.
The telephone company has ap-
pealed from this decision of the
Commission to the District Court
Of Ramsey County, where Attor-
ney-General Peterson is now de-
Tending the validity of this rate re-
duction. He plans to commence
proceedings for reduction in tele-
phone rates in other localities
where the rates now are too high.
Defends Chain Store Tax
His fight against large utilities
is only one of the many instances
of his effort to protect the inter-
ests of the people of this state.
He is at the present time defend
ing the constitutionality of law
which imposes a tax on chain
stores and protects the interests of
the Independent merchant and
tends to equalize in measure the
unfair competition. Nearly $1,O00,-
900 of annual tax revenue is at
stake.
Office Draws Relief Measures
In his office was drawn the Mort
gage Moratorium law, which saved
thousands of homes and farms
from foreclosures and tax sales
during the depression; the Income
Tax law; the $5,O00,00O Relief Act,
which is providing much needed re-
lief to thousands of destitute, but
worthy, citizens. He led the fight
against the Northwest Bancorpora-
ton, the sale of whose stock re-
suited in the loss to Minnesota in
vestors of millions of dollars. He
has handed down opinions making
possible compensation insurance
for FERA employees; opinions on
the state law granting old age pen
sions and aid to dependent chill
dren; opinions which held the Vet
Grams were entitled to relief not
withstanding the receipt of bon
uses. By this opinion alone thou
sands of Veterans are receiving aid
who otherwise would have been
barred from relief.
"Harry Peterson" said C. E..
Rucker, chairman of the group
supporting him, ''has courage and
an unexcelled record in conducting
important litigation for the State,
and has proved himself to be an
Attorney General for all the peo-
pie"
