later had been dressed by her
good friend, Mrs. Genevieve Her
rick.
The doll, it is understood, will
go under the White House Christ

wouldn't be able to stop by until
toward 10 o'clock last night, then
telephoned to say she would be
right over. A few of the hundreds
of guests milling through the
bazaar asked what the excitement
was about!
Wives of diplomats and public

STARS PLEDGE
JAPAN BOYCOTT

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 10.-Can
you imagine the silky sirene of
the screen wearing cotton stock
ings?
Well, among those who have
I agreed to don the plebeian leg
wear. because they've joined boy
colt movement against buying silk
from Japan are Gypsy Rose Lee,
Luise Rainier, Virginia Bruce,
Frances Farmer, Sylvia Sidney,
Anna May Wong and Gale Sender
gard.
Their VOW to stop wearing silk
stockingS-and their plea to other
Americans to forego purchasing
Japanese goods-is coupled with
an appeal to President Roosevelt
to enforce the arms embargo act
against Nippon.
The action came in the form of
a resolution adopted by the Mo
ton Picture Artists Committee,
which is distributing a four-page
dodger from home to home here.
The move is coincidental with a
manifesto against Germany's
treatment of its racial minoritieS
signed by Sc important movie stars
and officials after a meeting in
the home of Edward G. Robinson.
Presided over by Melvyn Doug
las, the meeting castigated pres
ent conditions in Germany. A
resolution read:
Hitler and his Nazi dictator
ship have attacked the religions
of the world and substituted
paganism in their stead; they
have abolished freedom OF
speech, press and assemblager
and imposed their will upon U.s.
100000 people-and are prepar-
ing a similar imposition OF will
on all mankind"

PRESIDENCY NOT
FOR FIRST LADY

G.N.S.) Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt believes that any effort
to put a woman into the White
House would be ridiculous"
She said so in her newly-cre-
ated question-and-answer page in
the Democratic Digest" one of
the official publications of the
Democratic national committee.
Mrs. Roosevelt was answering a
question from Miss Maria E. Cam
pos, Puerto Rico digest director.
Miss Campos asked Mrs. Roose-
welt if she would accept the nomi-
nation if her husband refused to
run for a third term.
Mrs. Roosevelt wrote:
Nothing would induce me to
accept the nomination for the
Presidency even if it were ten
dered me. I doubt very much,
at the present time, that it would
be rendered any woman but,
granted that that hurdle could
be crossed, we have not reached
point where enough women
hold public office so that the
general public thinks of them
as persons either fit or unfit
for certain position. They still
label them either male or fe-
male.
1T seems to me sensible to
work to put the right women in
offices where they can do good
work. but to try to put one into
the Presidency would, 1 think,
be ridiculous"

CALL ON WILLIAMS
The mention of one-quarter Of

report, flying through the various
WPA agencies today. that Is per

The rumor started after COM

Aubrey Williams to confer on the
possibility that those directing the
numerous projects can be &C.
mented into the regular Federal

to them, it was said at WPA head

of substantial reduction in the
number of those working on un-

Last week, WPA officials de-
clared, more than $4,000 relief
workers we're eliminated from the

fewer higher-upS are necessary to-

ouSly.
Throughout the nation, they
