 Boycott, Picketing
 The call for boycott and picket ing of theaters was Lessing'S reply. He said the c. I. O. promised the support of its 2,500,000 members. The boycott will be directed first, he said, in industrial areas where movie-goerS are union partisans. Cities selected for picketing today were New York, Chicago, Philadel- phia, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis and St. Paul.
 Within 8 week we expect to have the active aid of 3,000,0 900 workers Leasing said.
 The strikers are affiliated w.th the American Federation of Lan'r but their walk-out failed to win federa- tion approval, 50 they turned Lo the c. I. o. They also were deserted by the screen actors guild whose s. 600 actor-members voted Sunday night against joining the strike.
 Not As Craft Members
 Casey said the studios would deal with the striking unions of Painters, Hairdressers. Make-Up Men and others individually, but not as mem- bers of the Federation of Motion Picture Crafts. He criticized the technicians for walking out instead of staying on their jobs during neg citations for preferential shop. Warner Brothers and Selznick In- ternational Studios agreed last night to the actors demands for a Guild Shop and wage increases for extras and "bit" players. This com- pleted the peace agreement between actors and producers. Warner Bro- thers was the last of the nine ma jor studios to sign and Selznick was the first of the 50-odd independents to accept the actors terms.
 Must Be Guild Members
 Under the agreement, all actors must be guild members. A long line formed at guild headquarters ap- plying for membership. Jean Har- low and Greta Garbo, two of the outstanding non-guild stars, were reported to have been among the first to join. New memberships to- tailed more than 400.
 Strikers were angered by the Guilds action, but Lessing said &C., tors would not be molested when they passed through picket lines to their sets.
 We can do without them," he said.
 Many actors were said to be sym pathetic to the strikers. They were being approached to buy 'certifi- cates of good faith" at prices rang ing from $l to $l00 to swell the strikers war chest.
 White Rats Support
 A rebel faction of the Junior Guild, composed of actors earning less than $250 a week, messaged strike headquarters 1t was support ing you in your fight" The message was signed "The White Rats"
 Encouragement also was sent by Anita Whitney of San Francisco, state communist party leader.
 Production was not hampered. Fifteen pictures were under way to- day and 16 more were to be started during the week at the nine studios involved. The strikers number about 5000 but they are opposed by stu- dio workers affiliated with the In- ternational Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employes, another A. F. of l.. unit.
 Plans to Picket
 New York, May 11-(UP0-Plans for picketing some of the largest and best known motion picture the aters in the world were being made today by the Brotherhood of Paint CTS and decorators.

 The sight of the silver ship in the sky over the city today, even though it would be midget com pared to the Hindenburg, caused many of those who paused to gaze at it think of the time last year when they saw the majestic Ger man dirigibie float Iazily over Waterbury's downtown section. Not many of them dreamed at the time that such a catastrophe would happen to the powerful and well built airship as it drOned slowly over Waterbury.

Actor Treated for Injured Foot at St. Ann S
 Hospital
STREAMLlNED SURF SUIT

Cast again in a familiar role Charles Murray, popular screen comedian, sat with his foot propped high on a chair in the X-ray room of St. Ann's Hospital, this afternoon waiting the verdict of broken or not broken" from Dr. w. w. Council, as he regretted an untimely fall on the yacht, Breezin' Thru, enroute to Juneau last week.
 i've been treated much rougher than this in Hollywood,' remarked Murray, as the verdict came back, "unbroken." Adding that actors in the early days took many a fall before the advent of doubles, the noted comedian explained that this particular fall was caused when he rushed to see the Prince George from a window aboard the Breezin' Thru, while at Ketchikan.
 We were eating dinner on the day after the Fourth, when Mrs. Murray called me to see the Prince George. just passing by I ran toward the window but slipped on the stairs, an banged the foot up bit. Nothing much, though"
 Favorite for 26 Years
 Acting on the legitimate stage for 29 years and a favorite in Holly wood for the past 26 years, Murray is veteran of the theater His fav- orite picture was "MacFadden's Flats" although as close second he places the "Cohens and Kellys' group.
 One thing which Hollywood could never do," he stated as he inspected the x-ray photo to see what was what, would be to portray Alaska as it really is. Nothing sym thetic could picture the beautiful scenery found in the Territory"
