Present Day
Crime Data
Is Revealed
Refusal to Reveal Source OF
information Brought
Writer Sentence.
BY JOHN w. THOMPSON

Crime marches on And as other
forms of modern civilization
change, so change the methods of
criminals. The changes that have
taken place are described in Bullets
or Ballots" the Paul Mooney story
which is to open at the Apollo Fri
day.
Mr.. Mooney is the young reporter
who was jailed for not revealing the
sources of his information about
modern rackets to New York court.
Now he is revealing that informa-
ton in motion pictures. Edward c.
Robinson, who became interested
personally in Mr.. Moneys case and
visited him in Jail, plays the leading
role in the film.
No longer, according to Mr..
Mooney. is the gang leader tough!
He is polished gentleman to all
outward appearances; his manners
are suave. his speech flawless and
his conscience nil. He is even more
bloodthirsty than his predecessor of
VIZ hAiANA bJPC
Respected Citizen" Front
Usually, Mr.. Mooney said, the
gang leader of today has a legiti-
mate business as a front" for his
crooked dealings. Many times he is
respected member of his commun-
ity and it is not he. but his under
world trigger-men who take the raps
for his crimes.
Playing one of the leading roles
in Bullets or Ballots" is Humphrey
Bogart, who made a startlingly fine
debut in THE Petrified Forest" as
the philosophical gangster, Duke
Mantee.
Previous to this role, Mr.. Bogart
had made a determined but futile
effort to crash Hollywoods gates.
So like others, he made it by way
of Broadway. After appearing in
several plays, he was given another
contract for pictures. But he didn't
expect much and when, after his
triumph in "Petrified Forest" he was
hailed as a dramatic discovery" no
one was more surprised than Mr..
Bogart.
He Likes Hollywood
And he likes Hollywood. Some of
his impressions are as follows
Il like, first off, the weather.
Il like the hours of work-from 9
till 6.
Il like the clothes one can wear
without stentation-slacks, flannels.
sweaters, soft, comfortable things.
Il like what most people complain
of-the people.
Il like drive-in sandwich stands"
Some Things Not So Good
And Mr.. Bogart likes best of all
that weekly pay check which comes
in even if he doesn't work. He also
likes California because it's big
enough for him to own a horse and
dog If he wants to-which he
doesn't.
The things about California that
Mr.. Bogart doesn't like are the fog,
California policemen who, he thinks
are masses of over developed ego,
the wines, the way women bleach
their hair and the chamber of COM
merce, the Rotarian attitude of all
Southern California.

or Ballots with Mr. Robinson and
Mr.. Bogart will be Joan Blondell.

whom she portrays in her forth
coming picture
Says Mr.. Shelley of the original
Mary: She had a broad, high
forehead, high cheek bones, hazel
eyes with thick lids, long straight
nose, somewhat incurved, and un-
derneath, thin, compressed lips. She
had darling glance and occa-
sionally the suggestion of a slight
squint."
Witchery Report Dismays
But the historian continues that
"She was of a buoyant nature,
bright and vivacious trusted to
charms and mental gifts . Poets
praised her fair skin, bright eyes
and her lovely, expressive hands, in
imitable grace"
The man who brought this sum-
mary to Miss Hepburn somewhat
dismayed her. The description
seemed to fit her, and the sheaf of
photographs which he had bore
striking resemblance to her. But
here was historian writing about
witchery, saying Mary's charm was
not in beauty, classically speaking,
but in personality.
Miss Hepburn might have added
the citations of Herman Andrews,
the eighteenth century historian
and essayist, who said, "She had ir-
reSiStible beauty, beauty that was
wasted upon Scotland; and that of
Kirlbaum the German, who de-
scribed Mary as tall and slender
pale face and light brown
eyes a graceful and sensitive
face"
Spy Wins the Day
However, Frank Arthur MUMMY
wrote that she was without minor
scruples that embarrass timid con-
sciences, and Godfrey Parsons, an
other historian, called her zone of

Miss Hepburn was dismayed again.
She didn't want, she said, to be con-
sidered by any means without minor
scrupleS. And that was suggested
