He toured the capitals of the world.
And for seventeen years he tried to get
a break in the movies but the near

In vaudeville he headlined the bills

She got it - for four weeks. Then
followed three-month stretch with
nothing left to do but haunt agencies
and casting Offices. Occasionally, she
got a days extra work - $3.50 was
tops, and not all profit by any means:
a rented costume cost 50, the agency
got SO cents, and the buses and street
cars took another dollar.

plugging along. Behind her were the
rather unhappy experiences of having
been a saleslady in popular music

er. The net result has been big
growth in the mutual trade of
these nations with an accompany
ing. increase in living standards
For instance, Canada, an i'm

tariff reduction on the former and
from IL to 25 per cent on the lat
ter. France purchases a generous
percentage of our office equip
ment and has granted a 25 per
cent tariff reduction on some of
these items. The following figures
gives further evidence of the sat-
isfactory results of reciprocal
pacts: - exports to treaty nations
in l934-up 22.2 per cent; to others,
UP l1.3 per cen. In 1885 they gain
ed 14.1 and per cent respectively.
Imports in 1884 from treaty nations
up 46.3 per cent and from others
up 45.7 per cent. In 1885 imports

believe that Secretary of State
Hull's reciprocal trade policy is
the most encouraging development
in world affairs today. The only
way that trade barriers can be
eliminated is by mutually lower
ing them over a period of time.
Furthermore, such a program
means sacrifice and unselfishness
on the part of many groups for
the benefit of all.
No nation can ever get a mono
poly on prosperity. Good times and
hard times cannot be staked off
by political boundaries. The mod
