Farley wishes he had thought of S mething like that.
 
 Fo.geries Are Out
 The plan, besides putting a lot of money into the keeping of Treas urer Warren William, is expected to reduce the annoyance of present autographing practices. But am not so sure 1t will work out as simply as that, if the fans want to stand up for their rights. For instance, there is the mat ter of authenticity. Lots of so-called autographs now sent out by mail are actually harmless forgerieS penned by secretaries. But a fan who pays 25 cents for star stamp is clearly entitled to genuine signature. Screen celebrities will find them- selves signing their names more of- ten than they ever have before. Also, the stars will be obligated to stand and deliver their auto- g .phs whenever and wherever approached by the bearer of star stamp. These days 1t is no trick at ali for William Powell to push through a clamoring crowd say- ing, Sorry, folks, but I'm late. for an important appointment now. 1 l see you later"
 But just let him try that line on mop of cash cllstomersl
 
 I6>a for Dowagers
 .Al.i, first thing you know, wealthy old ladies will be coming to Holly wood and buying $1QO books of stamps and rnonopolizing Robert Taylor for the duration of 400 sig natures. .
 Nr. Taylor is a fellow of more than ordinary graciousness, but l cont know (and he doesn't either) what he'd do if far stepped up and demanded half hour of name writing. Anyway, he can be glad that he changed his name from Spangler Arlington Brugh.
 Sale of these stamps will not mean that the Actors Guild prom ises to provide opportunities for using them, any more than a hunt ing license guarantees that the buy CT will be able to bag 8 deer or q rabbit. But the principle is about the same. Autograph hounds, their courage fortified by star stamps, will beat on the doors of Beverly Hills homes and will bring celebrities to bay ill restaurants and night clubs -.H in pursuance of their purchas- cd privileges.
 Camera Craze
 The Guild expects to put the plan in-o effect within three months. 1 This placing of a cash value on screen players signatures will be a great boon to the innumerable youngsters who already have gath cred untold thousands of auto- graphs. Many of the collectors will be able to sell out and retire.
 Wren the hobby becomes too ex- ensivC to pursue further, the local fans probably will turn to photog- raphy. Already there are scores of srlapShooters who haunt the studio ates and film colony restaurants an ! beauty parlors by day. And even with the cheapest cameras they seem to do well enough.
 An advantage O. pictures over autographs is that the former can be obtained without the celebrities consent. Indeed. a shot of indig- nant Katie Hepburn making face into a lens is much more highly prized than a smiling and gracious ly posed photo of Myrna Loy.
