There has been a substantial

of delinquentS may be reduced.

 When reporters asked him, in connection with the line and mass production, how today compares with yesterday in the motor industry, he answered with conviction, "There's no comparison. I'll give you four ways right off the bat why today is better than yesterday.
 First, we don't work near ly so hard.
 Second, we don't work near ly so long.
 Third, we have the satis- faction of accomplishing q great deal more.
 Fourth, we have much bet. ter tools to work with and a greatly improved system"
 Then in a philosophical way, he added, This fourth differ ence really makes the other three possible"
 The practical benefits of mass production to all of us is that we can buy car for less than $l,000 which would cost $17,000 to make by hand tool methods. Only a few cars at these high prices could be made. And instead of $500, ,000 workers in the auto industry and industries which supply it with. materials, only a few thousand would be employed making cars.

But when he developed the assembly line he began rapidly transforming and enriching the lives of the whole American people.
 There has been a good deal of popular misunderstanding of assembly lines. This is due in part to a kind of writer who temperamentally loathes fac tories anyway, and who has portrayed ''mass production" and assembly lines" as mod ern evils which crush out the workers Individuality and use up his energies in short time.
 This is decidedly untrue.
 All you have to do is talk with the men who've been longest on the assembly lines of the big automobile com panies to learn that the oppo- site is the fact.
 Take Leo Schulz, for ex- ample. He probably knows as much about assembly lines from first-hand. experience as any man in the world. He's been with the Ford Motor Con- pany 31 years and with the line since it's beginning. His health is excellent and he certainly shows not the slightest sign of frazz1ed nerves.

No one who had read the book when it was first published. ever expected to see John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men appear as a film. It was too daring a subject, treated with a stark reality that was unheard of in films. And yet a film version, true to the very spirit of Steinbeck's finest novel, opened last night at the Capitol Theatre and proved once again that the screen is more powerful than the printed word.
 Powerful" described Of Mice and Men accurately Directed hy Lewis Milestone with his genius of getting the most out of his ma- terial, "Of Mice and Men brings with it cast that is, without ex- ception, unusually excellent. Bur- gess Meredith, Betty Field, Lon Chaney, Jr. Charles Bickford, Roman Bohnen are the top names in this cast
 Of Mice and Men" was con- sidered dangerous film material be- cause it treats Of an aspect of American life that is known Jo few-the lives of the "bindle stiffs," or migratory ranch hands, who wander from ranch to ranch doing seasonal work always hoping that some day they will have ranches of their own.
 Specifically, the story is of an abiding friendship between two of these homeless, friendless men .-- Lcnnie huge, hulking and not too bright, and George, small, alert and the protector of his large com panion Their fellow ranch hands are a motley crew, cast with con- summate skill by Milestone.

sp-ecadent fol, dramatic frankness in telling the true story of mankind's strangest weapon. It is a tense completely absorbing picture, flaw lessly produced.
 The Story of Dr. Ehrlichs Magic Bullet" which opened yes terday, marks turning point in Edward G. Robinson's career. In a role utterly different from any, thing he has done before, he gives a performance so superb that it ranks with the finest portraits in screen history. He lives the role in a thoroughly impressive perform ance covering the span of years from young manhood to gray old age in a constant battle for the hunianities. His makeup through out the picture is triumph in itself and his interpretation of the Enrich character leaves nothing to be desired.
 It is portrait that grows steadily and surely as the drama of his life and work are unfolded upon the screen. His early strug- gles and doubts are as completely believable as the later sureness with which he attacks the problem of finding the magic bullet" which when shot into the blood stream will kill the dread germs of hu- manity's most deadly scourge.

Ever since German machin- cry and organization knocked out France in the late spring of 1940, everybody in America has become mass production minded. Our whole defense program is built on the, great est output in the shortest time.
 In the phenomenon of quan- tity output, which is another way of saying mass produc- tion," the American automobile industry showed the way.
 And what made mass pro- duction possible? q
 Several factors, but most of all the assembly line. Without the assembly line quantity out put in automobiles could never have been possible. This de- vice, now used by all automo-, bile manufacturers, airplane factories, and many other lines of manufacturing, began with Henry Ford.
 While other early automo- bile makers were thinking only of building a few cars for wealthy people, Henry Ford's head was filled with the idea of giving all the people an opportunity to ride in automo- piles. For a long time he had the hard fight that most pio- neers have who are far ahead of the times.
