Life Insurance in action!

Metropolitan funds, invested for the benefit of
its policyhoIders, continued to play part in the
economic structure of the nation. These funds
aided in financing Government activities, helped
to keep industry humming and men in jobs, to
erect public and private buildings, and assisted
farmers TO own their farms and to keep them in
proper repair. However, the low interest rates
generally prevailing continued TO have their effect
on the Companys earnings and consequently on
dividends to policyholders.

BETTE DAVIS OUTDoEs
HERSELF IN NEW FILM

With each picture which Bette Davis
makes, she sets herself what seems an
impossible task. That is, to top her pre-
vious performances Such performances
as she gave in Ozark Victory,' "The
Old Maid,'' and "All This and Heaven
Too' would seem well-nigh impossible
to improve upon, but such Is the magic
of Miss Davis supreme talent that she
has succeeded. In "'The Letter. the
Roosevelt's new film, William Wyler
production based on the Somerset
Maugan play, she is a sheer perfec-
ton.
The perfection we might add, is con
fined to Miss Davis portrayal Of the
role, for Leslie Cosbie, central figure
in this most dramatic of all the Maug
ham plays, is anything but perfect. She
murders the man she loves, and ruins
the man who loves her

FIRST COULEE POWER
TO BE RELEASED SHORTLY

The first actual production of elec-

now scheduled to begin March 81, it
was stated today. Two service station
generators will go into action, each de-
yeloping 1850 k.v.a. The current
generated will be used partly at the
dam itself and the surplus will go into
the Bonneville power line to help the
shortage of power in the Coast indus
trial centers.
Officials said that every bit of pow
err to be developed has been spoken for
Tn addition to these ''little" units,
three main generators have been au-
thorized, each to produce 100000 X.
v. a. One of them, No. L-3, is now be-
ing installed at the power plant and
will 90 into production this fall. Two
others are being manufactured by Yves
tinghouse and will arrive at the dam
late this year and early spring.
Still further plans are being made
for three more with will make a total
of six and the power plant will even
tually house nine of them. A bank OF
three Of these generators will develop
enough energy to light 5.5oo,ooo GOV
watt lamps or light New York City

will produce enough power to supply
