he was too gosh-darned lazy to

Job he had held up to then.
Brady regularly fired him
every week and then forgot
about it. But once the producer

the play was on.

Lots Of Jealousy

Tho latter theory Is hardly
likely To be correct considering
that Bette and Mary have never
evinced any particular love for
one another in the past and that
Davis strongly objected TO As
tors getting the role when The
Great Lie" was first cast.
Whatever the argument, the
fact remains that Bette meets
more than her match in this
picture. She has to fight for
every scene and she doesn't win
every round by any means. Even
with the advantage of favorlt-
ism which she obviously has on
the Warner lot, she loses a lot
of ground here.
She can barely maintain her
stand in the two catty cocktail
encounters and when in the final
scene Miss Aston makes the
beautiful gesture. relinquishes
her child and dashes into the
furious opening chords Of the

Not Just for Fun

Even the most casual observer
can detect that this isn't all
make believe. and while, as in
the case of Ladies in Love- and
other pictures where a lot of
temperament is combined on one
set, it is a pet gag of the pub
licity department TO exploit ny
pothetical pyrotechnics, in this
instance. they aren't fooling,
If Miss Davis had her troubles
with Miriam Hopkins in THE
Old Maid" she was compare
lively coasting. for there she had
not only all the technical de-
vices Warmers could assemble,
but also audience sympathy
thrust upon her.
Here she meets another tai
ented and more beautiful woman
on equal ground and the battle
which ensues comes ont in cell
luloid more than one would be-
heve possible.
This doesn't mean that we do
not admire Bette Davis a great
deal. il simply is a surprise trib-
ute to Miss Astor for accom-
plishing the impossible-taking

Provides Protection
For Homesieaders

A measure to give homesteaders
the same protection from taxation
they got from their creditors also
has been drafted by Rep. Me
Cutcheon.
The bill provides that q home
stead shall not be sold by forced
sale to enforce the collection OF
any tax or assessment lien. while
IT is being occupied as home by
the claimant or his or her survv-
ing spouse"
The so-called exemption clause
in the state constitution is some
what misunderstood" McCutcheon
said. "since IL Is not an exemption
from taNation-but does protect
by law from forced sale a certain
portion of the homestead and other
property of heads Of families.
The measure l propose does
not take property off the tax
rolls. but gives the claimant pro-
lection against forced sale for
taxes. That does not mean that
the taxes viii not continue TO
accrue. nor does II mean that
children can claim exemption from
the taxes
The measure framed by Nc
Cutcheon SAYS that homesteads
may be selected and claimed. with
improvements thereon. without re-
gard TO area or extent. providing
the same does not exceed the value
