Newport News company, under man. agement of blue-eyed Homer Fer guson, who used to be midship- man, has set out to make 1t work In an effort to keep it's necessary help available at all times, the com pany cultivates them, in a sense like prize hens.
 If slack period comes along no cruisers or freighters to build the men may find themselves with out real work. But instead of being laid off, they are called in by tht boss, given a bucket of paint, anc set to painting their own houses If the house has been painted re- gently, perhaps it needs an extra room. They can borrow money from the company to build it.
 Perhaps the man has no house al all. Well, the company steps in again, lends money at low interest to the steady workman, supplies his material at shipyard prices, and perhaps puts some of the company carpenters to work erecting the house.

CUSTOMS COLLECTOR RETURNS FROM TRIP
 TO WASHINGTON, DC.

James J. Connors, Collector of Customs, returned to Juneau last night on the motorship Northland after trip to Washington, D. C., for conferences with officials of the Customs Service. He spent five days in Washington and visited his brother in Boston for a short time, being gone about a month.
 Travelling across country by train, MT. Connors reported that he en- countered varieties of weather with snow prevailing in many sections through the fiddle west. Washing ton he found to be a beehive of activity and one of the hardest workers there, he reported, is AL aska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond The Delegate is on the go all the time, he said and doing an excel lent job for the Territory.

the account of any registered John Smith can be found almost instant- ly by these thinking machines"
 If John loses his old age pension card and wants to know his account number, it can be learned in a jiffy by referring to the rotary alpha betical index. The Smiths, and others, are indeXed alphabetically and by first names and age group ings.
 Battalions of error catchers back up the machines. These clerks check and double check the records so that when John Smith is 65 the government will know how much is due him in monthly old age pay nsnts and where to send his check
 Headed By Ex-School Teacher
 Top man in the organization which handles this mass of figures is an erstwhile Wisconsin school teacher Arthur J. Altmayer ac..ng chair man of the Social Security Board since the resignation Of New Hamp- shires John Winent.
 Lean, studious, steeped in statis- tics, he represents the non-politi- cal type of Washington official. He had 13 years experience with the wisconsin Industrial Commission, served as MIRA compliance chief and later as assistant secretary of labor.
 Under Altmeyer, jovial Frank Bane of Virginia, as executive di- rector, is general manager of the set-up. Forty-six, he is a former school superintendent and has wide acquaintance among educators, well fare experts and business men.
 Altmeyers colleague on the two- man board is Vincent M. Miles of Arkansas, awyer, politician and American Legionnaire.
 General counsel is Thomas H. Eliot. HarVard-trained grandson of famed Harvard President Eliot and one of the New Deals brightest le- gal luminaries.

LIFE BEHIND
 HEADLINES IS
 T0LD,CAP|T0L
Federal Agents Battle Ter ror-Spreading Mob in
 Coliseum Attraction

1 A real-llfe newspaper story ot events behind the headlines, writ ten by two ex-newspapermen Mich ael Fessier and Richard Blake, from short story by George Harmon ! Coxe.
 i Stuart Erwin as the laconic star reporter whose strongest competl- tor is the girl he's in love with. ] Paul Kelly as the hard-bitten city editor, torn between headlines and an alimony-seeking wife.
 That is, Women Are Trouble hi- larious, fast-moving new picture which comes to the Capitol The atre.
 City Editor Blaine and his top reporter, Casey, were good friends until Ruth Nolan went to work on The Star. Then trouble began. For one thing, war between the police and a gang of post-prohibition rack ieteers broke wide open, with The Star leading the cleanup fight. 1 When Ruth scooped Casey by pulling headline news from the very center of the enemy camp, the war entered their own front yard, with both Ruth and Blaine finally get ting kidnapped and sentenced by the gangs own court to death.
 Ripped from sensational head lines of recent months, telling one of the strangest stories ever to come from American life, is Colum- bias dramatic Legion of Terror, 7 which is scheduled to open tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. Bruce Ca bot, Marguerite Churchill and Crowfard Weaver, ewcomer, head the cast.
 The activities of the infamous hooded legion that terrorized many communities in the midwest pro- vides the theme of the film, as the title may have hinted. Much ex- citement is injected into the picture when the Federal government, in the person of postal inspectors, go to work on the hooded folks when they attempt to send a time-bomh through the mails.
 Cabot and Weaver are seen as the post office departments sleuths Arriving at the scene of the legion's activities, they meet Miss Church ill, who's brother is waging a single handed fight against the lawless band. The two federal men pose as sympathizers to inveigle their way into the good graces of the legion and, boring from within, manage to bring the night riders to grief. Legion of Terror" served to in- troduce Crawford Weaver to screen audiences He has long been popu- lar on the Broadway stage, but is making his first film appearance Cabot has lately been seen in Fury while Miss Churchill has recently been featured in "Alibi for Murder and "The Final Hour"

 Robert Montgomery once told me about the woman who, posing as an interviewer, pursued him for days. Suspicious from the start, he had taken the precaution never to be alone with her. Under unseen sur veillance, he elicited the informa- tion that she had no connection with any publication, that the big idea was for him to divorce his wife and marry her. That was all he needed to know. The officers stepped from behind the curtains and showed the lady how to leave.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal. May 5. - Every day is a threat-letter day in Hollywood.
 You have read about those that came to Ginger Rogers, to Clark Gable, Shirley Temple, Jane With CTS and Anna May Wong, but of the majority you never hear. The stars themselves don't as a rule.
 At one studio alone it is esti- mated that the star family receives at least 100 threats" a week. These arrive in the regular flow of fan mail, are turned over to studio po- lice for scrutiny, and most of them are tossed aside as harmless. Those about which there is any doubt are investigated quietly, and occasion ally one gets into the headlines.
 Often, as in the case of Ginger Rogers, that is the first intimation the star has that she has become the object of some fans financial af- factions. The studio protects its people, wherever possible, from the mental strain involved.
 Many Are Boys
 The youthful sailor who broke into print by demanding cash from Ginger Rogers some months ago was arrested in short order by Justice Department operatives and is now serving a stretch. The most recent Ginger -threatener signed his name and address, making things simpler He was Is. On two separate oc-

 BALTIMORE, Md, May 5.--While the Social Security act runs tht gauntlet of counter attacks on its constitutionality the social security Organization is conducting here the worlds biggest bookkeeping job. Anc there isn't bookkeeper on the place
 In an old warehouse facing Bal timore's historic waterfront. 46c mechanical brains,' manned ano operated by 2,400 operators and clerks, are compiling the larges, volume of data ever collected or American wage earners.
 This information covers moro l 26, ,0O0,000 persons under the old agC pension provision of the Social Sc curity law alone.

 There are, besides, an estimated 18,520,000 workers covered by it's un- !, employment compensation section and l,600,0O0 receiving federal aic to the aged, the blind and depend i cnt children
 Tabulation of information on po- tential pensioners is handled in nine major operations in a straight line mass production system like that used by big industries.

Youthful ThriU-Seehers
 Threaten Stars by Mail

easions Shirley Temple threats were traced to 16-year-old boys And that is the striking thing about the letter -writers-their almost invar- fable youthfulness.
 Kids, mostly, who want a thrill, or seek notoriety, or just want to be up to something" one peace of ficer says. Tt never does any of them any good-and can mean a penitentiary sentence"
 Annoying as the would-be extor- tionists are, more so are the nets and cranks and fantastic dreamers who harass the stars in person. Stars get their fame and their money from the fact that their celluloid images are seen by millions. Among those millions are people who get funny ideas-and quite few who come to Hollywood to put their notions into effect.
 Insistent In Demands
 So it is that, not infrequently, a start will return home of an even- ing to find parked on his or her doorstep some stranger with claims, petitions, or demands. Sometimes these become so persistent it is nec- essary to summon police.
 If the same thing happened to the average private citizen, he would feel no compunction about calling the cops immediately. Film peo- pie, realizing it is part of the price of stardom, and that human na- ture has strange quirks, usually try

Calvin 5 Digest


In spite Of invitations for him to
stay away, issued by the Texas white
press, Congressman Arthur w. Mitch
81 Of Chicago accepted the invitation
of the colored press and went on his
tour Of the Lone Star State. Ac-
cording. TO reports, the Congressman
was well received in Marshall, home
Of Wiley College, and at Dallas, and
addressed the local colored chambers
Of commerce. At Marshall he con-
ferred with the president Of the
white Chamber Of Commerce. The
congressman also visited the Reset
tlement project for Negroes of Har-
tison and Penola counties in East
Texas, on this tour to get first hand
information on conditios affecting the
Negro In particular and the people
in general.
Although staunch supporter of
the New Deal, Congressman Mitchell
told the people of Texas he does not
believe in blind allegiance, and says
me Negro ought to prepare as far
as practicable for the nignest status
OF citizenship regardless of whether
che opportunities for service are inn
nediately AZ hand or not.'s One re-.
port Of the Congressman's tour says !:
DOUBTLESS many people have been
more favorably impressed with the
Congressman by these personal con-
facts with him. He is very convinc--
ing in his reasoning on problems Of
whatever nature, and appears to have
| broad understanding Of present
day problems"
| We do not sec eye to eye with
| Ar. Mitchell on many questions, but
On the whole his courage is COM
niendable. He is a determined sort
of man, and he is unafraid. We are
| glad he told the people of Texas to
prepare for "the highest status OF
citizenship 1t is important that
this doctrine be preached TO Negroes
| consistently.

The program of the Tuskegee

eection Of William L. Dawson, over
ne red network of the NBC from

for all types Of education, with still
too much ignorance left in the land.
We no longer quarrel over the kind
