Hollywood.--ExplorerS ir the Hol- iyWoods often are astonished and sometimes distressed to come upon beetle -browed screen gangsters who collect French china, sensuous sirens who will argue heatedly over baby formulas, funny-fnen who aren't funny, and sweet little ingenues who are colorful compendiums of cuss- words.
 But that's the way it goes. A large number of screen people aren't what they seem. Usually this is through no fault of their own. They are workers in the worlds daffiest industry, and al- though most of them would rather be known for what they are in real life, instead of reel life, their bosses say "No'. 'e er a,a f> {

Brazilian Ambassador Oswaldo
Aranha admitted today he had pro-

activity in Brazil, but said he was

nistic revolt in Brazil in 1885 was
financed with money which passed
through the hands of Aranha and
DR.. Getulio Vargas, now President of
the country.
