has risen TO the top IilIOuSl HeI
own efforts. She gave me these
inside tips for you who want to
get jobs as models in New York
City.
She says there are five kinds of
modelling a girl can do. ta) Posing
for artists and illustrators. They
pay the lowest wages) (b) Posing
for photographers. (c) Posing for
fashion displays in the movie news
reels. I'D Posing for retail clothes
dealers. (e) Posing for wholesale
clothes manufacturers. This Is the
best paid OF all0
Miss Gray says there are $500
girls in New York who make a
living posing Here is her advice ::
!. Don't come TO New York and
expect to make a living as a model
unless you have an income from
home of SIS a week for the first
year.
?. If possible. live with a pri-
vate family that will take your
telephone calls, and give you d
touch of home life. If you can't
go in a private family, then &C
to a girls hotel, or club. Lots OF
them in New York.
3. You need not go to a school
for models Such schools charge
from $50 to S75 a course. Half a
course will be enough. You can
learn the rest outside Don't have
pictures taken. This will cost you
from $40 to $25 and will do little
ii any. good.
A. Go TO the manufacturers
showrooms. If it is a slow day
they will let you watch the models
at work and you can learn how
they display dresses to the best
advantage. You can find these
manufacturers in the classified
telephone directory under clothes
manufacturers"
5. Dress In black, when you apply
for a job. That is. unless you have
plenty of money and can afford
expensive clothes. Dark is always
good style and appropriate for any
season.
6. Enroll with a reliable model
agency" or model service" You
will be charged a commission On
your work, but it will be worth it.
This is different from a model
SCHOOL,
7. When you go to apply for a
job wear good furs, or none. If
your fur coat is out of fashion
or run down, then wear a cloth
coat. Usually the better clothes
YOU wear, the better you will be
paid.
g. Meet people in the business
world. You will receive tips which
will lead to jobs.
9. Five feet and five inches is
a desirable height for wholesale
modelling. If you are shorter, you
q will probably have TO 90 as a "ju-
nior model"
10 You will stand your best
chance if you weigh between l10
and 100 pounds. But now and
then a model succeeds who weighs
only los.

action to President Roosevelt's re-

former President Hoover's reference
to "hysteria":
"World opinion finds itself con-
fronted less by a case of hysteria
than by case of mental deficiency
which would be quite understand
able if the White House were merely
a sanatorium and If there were
nurses there instead of Jews and

These press utterances-and many
others like them-may be taken to
reflect the state of mind of the
Italian government.
Asked about the official reaction
to the reported Roosevelt statement,
the department of popular culture
and propaganda this morning blunt
ly told foreign newspapermen to
refer to the newspapers"
1t is safe to say, at the very least,
that the Fascist government has
been visibly impressed by President
| Roosevelt's bombshell. No reaction
was apparent here before "a hours
had elapsed following the President S
utterances. During that time it is
assumed that the propaganda and
press machinery here was awaiting

Gayda, Mussolini's mouthpiece, the
press unleashed its fury.

cipal characters two brothers-one
who gave his life to aid his down.

government.
The script for the play was pre-

University.

President Promises
Interesting Letter
If Judge Is Rejected
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt told his press
conference today he would not with
draw the nomination of Floyd H.
Roberts to be a Federal Judge in
Virginia.
He added that if the Senate re-
fused to confirm the nominee, al
ready rejected by the Judiciary
Committee, he would write a letter
to Judge Roberts which would be
right interesting.
Reports got about Capitol Hill
yesterday that the President prob
ably would withdraw the nominal
ton, which drew opposition from
Virginia Senators and a 15-to-3 re-
lection by the Judiciary Committee.
Mr.. Roosevelt did not intimate
what would be containued in his
letter to the nominee.
The President also told reporters
we would not withdraw the nomina-
ton of Thomas r. Amlie, Wisconsin
Progressive, to be a member of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
In response to another question,
he said he had not been requested
to withdraw the name of Mr.. Amlie,
charged by opponents with being a
radical, by the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee.
The name of Donald Wakefield
Smith, reappointed to the National
Labor Relations Board, did not
enter into today's press conference,
but in congressional corridors re-
ports recurred that the President
would cancel his selection in view
of active opposition by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. Mr..
Roosevelt has not yet submitted
Mr.. Smiths nomination to the

A number of suspected Fifth

behind government lines-were ar
rested in Northern Catalonia, gov

The insurgent advance into
Catalonia, meanwhile, proceeded
relentlessly at the rate of about six
miles day despite rain, cold, rough
terrain and the absence of roads
in the Pyrenees.
The new government line was re-

sector, the insurgents were about Is

Insurgents Round Up
Franco Enemies
In Barcelona
Fifth Column to Have
Decisive Voice in
Executions
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BARCELONA, Feb 3-The in
surgent military intelligence service,
with Barcelona's famed Fifth
Column" supplying information for
arrests, is rapidly rounding up the
enemies of the Franco regime.
The Fifth Column is composed
of insurgent sympathizers who, dur
ing the 21a years of war, have risked
their lives in espionage activities
under the nose of the government.
Members of this column are ex-
pected to have a decisive voice in
determining which enemies OF
Spain" will be condemned to death.
The number of former govern
ment supporters now under arrest
was not available today, but it was
believed likely that scores would be
executed within the next few weeks.
Insurgent police last night dis
closed the arrest of several persons
charged with having stained their
hands with the blood OF their
brothers"
Fifth Column" LegaliZed.
They said the first government
leader caught here was Eduardo
Barriabero. so, former president of
the Popular Military Tribunal.
They said he would be charged with
murder.
Members of the 18th Column"
left their secret retreats in BARGE
Iona after the entry of Generals
simo Francisco FRANCOIS troops last
week. Since then they have been
formally recognized for their Serv-
ices and their organization legalized
in a ceremony at the Palace of JUS
tice.
The vast system of espionage used
by the 18th Column" to inform
Franco of government plans was
credited with having speeded the
capture of Barcelona.
The members worked day and
night at the risk of their lives.
Many gained valuable information
through employees in government
Offices and smuggled the data to the
insurgents.
City Returning to Normal.
Barcelona, now patroled by civil
guards and regular police instead of
troops, is rapidly returning to nor
NAL.
The city's finances are getting into
shape. Thousands are exchanging
government money for insurgent
pesetas. Others are obtaining bank
loans and credits, throwing large
amounts Of money into circulation.
Hundreds of shops and cafes have
reopened.
The food situation also is improv-
ing. The insurgent relief organiza-
ton reported the free distribution of
foodstuffs had dropped in three days
from a 1000 tons daily to 400 tons.
There are still long food queues,
however.
The authorities are rushing plans
to reopen textile and other factories
to provide employment as soon as
possible.
