they are old enough to talk, they argue

The very words send shiver of
horror down the backbone of Americans,
and stiffen them to resist the posi-
bility. We will spend billions on this
resistance, and as a preliminary we
have long ago put the kibosh on the
bund and other comic organizations
which advocate totalitarianism.
And yet, curiously enough, we ap-
parently overlook large totalitarian en-
pire within our borders-right in Cali
fornia. The center of it's web is Holly
wood, and its citizenship. thousands of
abject subjects bound to it by cruel and
rigid oaths of allegiance masquerading
as contracts. For these peasants the
State-meaning the screen-is all. Once
they get into its clutches. they lose all
privacy in their lives and all rights.
The control is sitter than Hitler's.
In return for blind obedience, the in
dustry guarantees them subsistence of
a sort, to kid them along and keep them

long hours-say about twenty a week.
Nor is this all. Much of their spare time
is spent in indorsing cigarettes, soap,
coffins, chewing gum, brassieres or razor
blades, for a mere pittance per indorse-
ment-sometimes only thousand dol
lars. Many cut into their hours of rest
by going on the radio, bravely struggling
to exc out their salaries by the few
paltry thousands of dollars they earn by

hay as early as 10 am to toll again for

Their very names are properties of
the trust. Stanislaus x. Szymanczowizce,
when he signs up, hasn't the ghost of
chance to retain even one syllable OF
moniker that he has spent lifetime in
learning to pronounce. He winds up as
Ronald Fairweather. Mary Ann Schultz,
if brunette and slinky, becomes Wanda
Baranova, and will stay Wanda Bara-
noya regardless of how many marriages
or divorces her publicity agent will
permit
Furthermore, Wanda, nee Mary Ann,
has to watch her calories. Before being
admitted to reel citizenship she has had
to sign a contract with an anti-fat
clause. 1t is her duty to slink, which
she can do under a certain arbitrarily
determined weight. Above it, she
merely wobbles. At any hour OF the day
or night secret company police may
hale her into a screen court and ques-
ton her about that double maplenut
sundae she had at the Brown Derby last
Monday, or compel her to submit to the
most hideous form of torture that woman
can endure-stepping on scale which
blatantly registers her shame before the
eyes of curious men. If found guilty,
she is put out of the party to starve.
Some day theater-goers, who make
this possible may rise up in their wrath
and demand that these wretched serfs
be liberated and given what the Con-
stitution guarantees-the right to be-
come ditch diggers, laundresses, or what
they will, instead of the hopeless slaves
of the film industry
