Famous Sayings

HOLLYWOOD. Aug. 11.-Behind
the screen: Some of the people
evacuated foreign branches of the
big movie companies are said to
have made a pleasant discovery
that it's possible to take money
out of Hitler's Europe. A man who
claims to have done it told me
how:
First he liquidated everything
he owned. Then, by paying a pre-
MUM, he managed to change his
marks into U. S. currency. This
was taken to an American diplo-
matte representative and after be-
ing examined. was burned they by
its owner. The official then pro-
vided a document saying that to
his certain knowledge bills of such
ano-such denominations and serial
numbers had been completely des-
troyed while in the possession of
Mr.. So-and So. The latter. after
returning to this country, presented
the document and eventually re-
CclVeQ new currency.
l asked how about our law against
mutilation or defacing u. S. money.
Mr.. So-andSo said he guessed the
law wouldn't apply over there or
maybe that the currency could be
considered lost to use and therefore
already destroyed before he got hold
of 1t. In any case, he didn't think
he'd be prosecuted
I like Oscar Homolka's story a.
bout his Negro servant, who has
seemed mighty weary and worried
lately and was asked if he was
sick. 'It's jes' that wife of mine"
he said, "All the time she talk.
talk, talk. It's drivin' me crazy. I
can't get no rest with all that
talk"
What roes she talk about" asked
the actor.
"Thats the trouble" said the
nervous Negro. "She don't ever
say"
Charlie Chaplins picture will be
titled "The Dictator" or "The Great
Dictator" after all. Paramount own
ed prior rights to the title and only
the other day constented to sell it.
According to present plans. the
flicker will end with an anti-Nazi
speech that's far from comic ?
A woman went into SWanky

mentioned that she recently had
