KELLEYGRAMS

Winchell and Ed Sullivan in high
regard Rudy Vallee was once
the victim of the most vicious
journalistic attack I have ever
seen put into type. 1t came from
a kid radio columnist, whose idea
of attracting attention to himself,
was by thumb nosing at national
celebrities &. Rudy went down to
his office to personally wipe up
the floor with his tormenter, found
him absent, cooled off and
dropped lis idea of libel suit l..
The columnist eventually went to
Hollywood, made good, and his
first picture story assignment was
a script for Rudy Vallee Rudy
could have kicked that assign
ment out the door and checked a
writing career He made the
magnanimous gesture, held out
his hand Ironically enough
the picture was called, "Sweet
Music" :. Perhaps he couldn't
forget. but he could forgive.
REAL MOVIE FAN
Youthful Evalyn Mclean Is a
repeat movie fan. She saw
Charlie Chan at the Opera" 10
times, because she liked the music.
For Sanders on the River" the
little heiress went 19 times. Liked
the English actors. Each time
she goes her bodyguard or private
detective accompanies her. I hope
he likes pictures, too. That was
the dignified Representative
George Holden Tinkham Of Mas
Sachusetts leading the pa n d
through BLUE Danube" at the
Carlton Christmas night. I told
my miSSus he was YaSha Mish-
bunski, and, seeing the whiSkers,
she believed it. Mr.. Tinkham was
the only Congressman reelected
without making a speech in his
district. In fact, he was abroad
until the day before election. Got
the biggest plurality in history,
which ought to give some other
politicians an idea. Seen in the
Carlton lobby: Leonard Bergman,

"Oh, I know the kind Of a pic
ture want and I don't care a
hang if somebody else is the star
in it. I have always wanted to
make a service picture, West Point
or Annapolis. or as a hard boiled
Marine. 1t so happened when I
suggested it to Warner Bros. they
said, Dick Powell has made those
pictures and this is not the time
for another. I say, any time is
the right time for a good picture.
IT even went to the trouble OF
outlining my idea Of a good story.
They sent me an author and I
went to the job of reciting plot,
treatment and business in detail.
They sent it away and that's the
last I ever heard of it. Evidently 1t

saying that what I'd like would
be something with the whimsy and
the overwhelming comedy OF a

Santa Claus for one of these, so
what chance have I got?"
BROKE A RECORD
Rudy is modest about his radio
success. "I don't pretend to be
able to get together the best radio
program in the world. I do think
my experience has enabled me to
polish up a continuity, to put in
the little things that help to make
it click. That's all I claim. For
the rest I am everlastingly CRATE
full to my guest and my associate
artists, and to my boys in the
band"
did you like my All Points
West'?" he inquired. He was
speaking of the Rodgers and Hart
tone poem which is one Of the
smartest lyrical ideas have ever
seen in a stage revue.
OF course 1 liked it. It tells in
music the story of a train an
nouncer who calls out the depot
stations for travellers, lamentS that
he never goes anywhere. Then
fate turns the switch and the an
nouncer goes on a long journey.
Here is irony, a bit of satire, trag-
edy. pulSing human life, trans
posed into mood and melody.
Rudy saw Paul Whiteman do 1t
at a Hippodrome concert, immedi-
ately acquired the rights for vaude-
vile. He is doing it with the &C
ton staged behind a Scrim cur
tain and helped enormously by
subdued stage lighting. He thinks
"All Points West" would be a
knockout on the screen and so do
I. Don't be surprised if it is one
of the things that is fitted into
his next picture.
What was Rudy's best Christ

Unemployment is one of the major
misfortunes at which the social secur-
ity act is aimed.
To fight this evil. partnerships are
being set up between the Federal Gov
ernment and the States, intended to
provide unemployment compensation
to people thrown out of work.
The money is to come from tax
on pay rolls. In most States the tax
will be levied on companies and per-
sons having eight or more employees.
In a few States employers Of four or
more will be subject to 1t. In one, en-
ployers of one or more.
This tax generally will amount to 1
per cent of the pay roll the first year
and advance to per cent in 1888 and
after. In a few States part of the tax
will be levied directly against employees.
but in many States workers will not
be taxed thus for this purpose.
Payments Begin In 1888.
Beginning in 1888, when a man In
State and group covered by this
section of the law loses his job he will
report to the nearest unemployment
compensation Office. His record will
be examined After the legal waiting
period of q few weeks, he will receive
check.
In most States it will be for half the
amount he was being paid while on
the job, unless he was making more

than $50 week, in which case it will
be SIS. That's the maximum under
many State laws.
The jobless man will get another
check for the same amount each week
for period of time to be determined
by the number of weeks he worked
before losing his job Under most
State plans thus far his compensation
will continue for one-fourth as many
weeks as he worked in the preceding
two years.
For example: II worker earned
S25 week for two years O04 weeks).
then lost his job he could receive
$1250 a week for 26 weeks.
To Prevent Sponging.
Meanwhile. the compensation office
will be looking for another job for each
man getting these checks while not
working. And when it finds an OPEN
ing. the worker must take the Job. or
lose his compensation, except in GER
tain cases. These exceptions entitle
him to refuse the job when:
