The time required actually to
I'm scenes in important pictures,

-cheduled to open soon at the
Carolina theatre, is short compar-
ed to the incredible number of
hours devoted to rehearsals. Ken
my Baker, Pat Paterson, Ella LO-
gan, Zazu Pitts, Sid Silvers, Mar
Ia Shelton, Jack White, George
Tapps and the dozen other per
Sonalities in the cavalcade of the
Manhattan night clubs, worked
80 to 400 hours each during the
filming of "52nd Street" None
was facing the cameras a tenth
of the time. Rehearsals running
into total of several weeks were
necessary to pave the way for
shooting of approximately lO0,-
900 feet of film which in turn was
edited down to the few thousand
contained in the hour-and-a-half
of entertainment delivered to the
public.
Crammed into thai hour and a
half are the smoothly blended

Another star required to do
something she never had attempt
ed before was Zasu Pitts, whose
role demanded the singing of a
novelty number, "Twenty-Three
SkidoO," in the manner Of an old
time coincidence. First rehearsals
were too good. The directors job
was to make her naturally-pleas-
ant singing voice flutter like her
hands. The desired effect was OBJ
tanned by recording the scene af-

crack from sheer exhaustion.

a half weeks and worked in front
of the cameras for seven hours.
His scene lasts about two minutes
as finally edited into the complet-
ed picture. One of the problems IN
photographing Tapps and record
ing his machine-gun foot effects
was slowing him down to a speed

Dorothy Saulter was another

D|MOND, SMITH
DIRECT TAX AT
PULP IMPORTS
Introduce Tariff Bills Which
Would Protect Industry in
Ala * a, Washington

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.--Alaska
Delegate Anthony j. Dimond and
Representative Martin Smith of Ho-
quiam, Wash, have introduced bills
in Congress designed to bring about
tariff for protection of the wood
pulp industry in Alaska and Wash
ingtcn.
Dimond's bill calls for q tax on
imported pulpwood and wood pulp
amounting to two dollars a cord on
pulpwood and seven dollars and a
half a ton of unbleached chemical
wood pulp; ten dollars a ton on
bleached chemical wood pulp and
four and a half a ton of mechan-
ically ground wood pulp. Alaskan
imports and productions manufac-
tured from wood pulp would be
taxed on the same basis as ground
wood pulp or chemical wood pulp
tonnage.
Smith has two measures. One
would prohibit the importation of
pulpwood or any wood susceptible to
use for manufacturing paper. The
other is designed to raise revenue
by taxing imported chemical wood
pulp at a rate of about one third
of one cent per pound gross weight
Both measures are aimed primar-
lily at imports from Canada.

existed between Franklin D. Roose-

Ordinarily he will accompany the
President in his daily swim in the

he must be good swimmer. Mr.

Gov. John w. Troy urged today

mediately and then be certain to
advise the shippers in Seattle to
see that the goods are at the dock
SO that they may be loaded aboard
the motorship North Star which is
scheduled to sail from Seattle for
Southeast Alaska Sunday.
The Governor further requested
that all shippers who may not be
able to catch the North Star with
their orders or want further sup
plies Immediately following to mott
fly his office SO that a complete
picture of what cargo will be avail
able for the Gorgas can be ascer-
tanned.
Col. Otto F. Gibson has radioed
the Governor that the Gorgas will
make another trip if there is suf-
ficient freight to warrant it. Thus
the Governor is asking early noti-
fication from shippers relative to
the amount of their orders for the
Gorgas SO that the total amount
of the tentative cargo can be de-
termined and the information sent
to Col. Gibson.
At the present time, the Gorgas
is scheduled to sail from Seattle
January 10 on a return voyage to
Alaska. providing that sufficient
freight for the north is available
when she gets to Seattle from her
present trip to the Territory.

HONORABLE NELL
SCOTT HERE FOR
MONDAYS MEET
Representative from Third
Division Comes Well Quail
flied for Her Position

To meet the Honorable Nell Scott
first woman to be elected to the
Territorial Legislature. IS to wish
that all women in pc,itics were like
her. She's so different from the
popular idea of a woman politician
Young-she's only 36, and volun-
teered her age to a hesitating re-
.porter-attractive, interested in the
Territory, intelligent in her view
point about her job, qualified to fill
it well, she is here. happy to be
elected and hoping to be a credit
to the women of the Territory.
Mrs. Scott, whose husband is Unit
ed States Deputy Marshal at Sell
dovia, arrived in Juneau yesterday
aboard the General w. c. Gorgas
While in Juneau she is at the home
of United States Marshal and Mrs
w. T. Mahoney.
1t was at the solicitation of friends
among members of the Democratic
party organization in the Third
Division that Mrs. Scott became q
candidate for the House from hel
division. Though she had taken
an active part in affairs of hel
party during the thirteen years she
has lived in Alaska and has many
friends throughout the Third Di-
vision who were her active support
ers she was a little surprised at her
nomination and subsequent election
However, her election was not just
the result of the Democratic land
slide. She worked hard to accom-
plish it. But she refused to make
speeches. Her campaign was one
of writing letters and meeting peo-
Pile. And she had many friends
especially in Anchorage, her former
home, and in Seldovia, who were
working for her.
Represents Women
Since they have vote and are
SO vitality affected by laws of their
state and country, Mrs. Scott be-
lieves that women should have a
part in making laws. AS member
of the Legislature she feels that she
will be representative of women
of the Territory and expects to
support legislation beneficial to wo-
men when and if it comes before the
session.
Mrs. Scott has a good background
for law making. After finishing
school in Seattle one of her first
positions was in law office. While
she made her home in Anchorage
she did frequent law secretarial
work for attorneys there.
AS a representative of her divis-
ion, she is well qualified. She
knows the needs and problems OF
her section of the Territory. She
is particularly interested in any
legislation affecting aviation in AL
aska
