So Mr.. Schenck bought his yacht
for friends who couldn't afford one.
He keeps about 80 broken-down ac-
tors on pensions and has a list of
touches and private charities that
would knock Uncle Sans eye out if
Mr.. Schenck ever showed it.
The chances are he won't show
it. In the first place, like all gam
blers he never regards money as
anything except chips In game.
In the second place he has a philos-
ophy in life.

thing that live by" he says. He
said If you are cold sober and

and that, although he was annoyed
when he found out about 1t, he
continued to 20 down the line for
the Wertheimer boys and even took
a $500-a-week cut in salary to put
one of them on the pay roll for that
amount as talent scout"
There was similar incident in
Mr.. Schenck's life 20 years ago,
when it became known that one of
his pals" had clipped "Uncle Joe"
and few others for a total of $780,
600 by using ''readers"-as marked
cards are called in the trade-in

Uncle Joe" remained friend of
the thief. He just didn't play cards
with him any more or let his friends

The final great talent Mr..
Schenck has is as a gambler. This
gambling seems to be strictly a ne
cessity in show business. Who but
a gambler would put his only ST.

new epic? Yet only that kind of

By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, March 22.-John T.
Jones, president of the Maryland
District of Columbia Industrial
Union Council, today accused Gov.
O'Conor's administration of shabby
and ruthless treatment toward Ia
bor."
In long letter of complaint to
Gov. O'Conor, Mr. Jones asserted:
Instead Of friendly attitude on
the part of your administration to-
ward labor we find a hostile
anti-labor attitude at Annapolis to-
day, in which leadership from your
party is playing its role.
Labor was given a severe set
back by the defeat of a State wage
and hour bill. This defeat would
have been impossible had the meas
ure had your support. = -"

sation bills were completely disre-
garded," he said. Not only did you

good money after bad, lost their
shirts in Hollywood.
All these talents, Mr.. Schenck
discovered, weren't worth a dime in
anything except show business and
that's where he went, dragging
Nicholas along with him, as soon as
he got $500 together. He started
in the amusement park end Of show
business, got into vaudeville-book-
ing and movies through Marcus
Loew, who was a concessionaire at
one of his parks, and finally started
making movies on his own In New
York with Fatty Arbuckle. Buster
Keaton and Constance and Norma
Talmadge.
Hollywood Is His Dish.
When he went out to Hollywood
all his talents came into full play.
Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford and
Douglas Fairbanks. who represented
about all the movies there were in
those days, made Mr.. Schenck the
top man by insisting on having
him as boss of United Artists.
That was a result of combina-
ton of all Mr.. Schenck's talents
from making friends to his gam
bling instinct. And the same COM
bination of talents was responsible
for the rescue of Fox Films from
the ash barrel. He got Daryl
Zanuck to come in on the formation
of Twentieth Century-Fox and, the
report is, they still haven't got a
contract between them. The deal
was sealed with handshake
Making friends is not business
with Mr. Schenck 1t is just the way
he is built. Sometimes his friends
turn out to be good business. For
example, Hollywood is full of tai
ented people who are not merely
temperamental but independently
wealthy. They don't have to do

He continued:
"As the setting for this shabby

authoritative source today to have
been elected by the Russians after

Germans were declared to be max

Declaring there was no sign of a
battle respite, he gave a sector-by-

In the Orel area Csouth of Mos

great strength, but the Russians
appear to be holding them at pres

In the Bryansk southwest sec
