At the end of the first half, 1t
was 1910 for Washington. Then
Alabama got mad, made three

national sports spotlight. Back

Johnny had been right after all.
In 1880 he starred in his first
western and obviously it was
closer to his type. The next four
years marked the only real

IL PAYS. TOO

It's always pleasure to announce
an extro dividend.
Right now, it looks as though the
new policy Of American exporters in
turning owoy from Lotin American dis
tributors who use their business to P'oy
the Axis game is going to Poy its first
extra. g. 49, ,s----
The regular dividends began at once
in tokino business, and therefore pro-
fits and money, away from South ond

tors known to be sympathetic to and
actively working for the Axis in those
countries-ond oIso working against
the United Stotes, whose goods they
we're selling and whose profits they
were tokino BY transfer Of these o9en-
cies and this business to agents either
neutroI, loyoI only to their motive coun-
tries, or il possible friendly toward
the United Stotes. good dividend was
declared at the stort.
Further, protection wos gained
oaoinst q post-wor time when 0ermon
and Itoiion goods will oeoin flood Lo-
tin America, and distributors fovor-
obIe to them would probably toss oside
American goods and push those Of the
totoIitor,ons (which they would be do
ing right now except that they cont
get then).
But. there's been on extro dividend,
too. Many exporters hesitoted to change
agencies, fearing that no other sotis-
foctoy representation could be had.
Feors along that line have been rerov-
ed by the disclosure before the foreign
credit interchange bureau OF the Mo-
otionoI Association of Credit men, OF
the foct ttot since pro-Nozi and onti-
Americon soles agencies we're replaced,

is full of handsome gents and
beautiful gals whose current
fame and fan acclaim represent
Algeresque triumphs over earlier
struggles and adversely. So it's
time somebody told the story of
Johnny Mack Brown man
who has been hero all his life.
AS rootin' -tootin' western
star known wherever American
films are shown, he's scarcely
more of a celebrity than when
he used to tote a football for the
University of Alabama. His
prominence, however, began
long before he went to college,
although it was confined mostly
TO his home town of Dothan,
Ala.
In primary school he was the
handsome, quiet youngster who
polished off the DULLES, made
good grades. and captained all
the teams. During his last two
years of high school, he was a
lion of the gridiron even among
the adult population. Football
scouts from big-time college be-
gan drifting into Dothan to offer
Mrs. Browns tall, black-haired
boy an athletic and, incidentally
academic career. Johnny Mack
was acclaimed by all Alabama
when he chose its university.
HIS
LUCKY DAY
And SO he worked his way by
clerking in a shoe store and be-
came a campus idol and pigskin
star, but all that was nothing un-
til an afternoon in the middle of
his senior year-Jan. l, 1925. AL

AFL Workers
 Disregard Ma chirlist Strike

SAN FRANCISCO, May 21 l4o, The picket lines established by AFL and CIO machinists were disregarded by AFL shipyard workers as groups of men re- turned to work in the Bay plants closed for l2 days by the mach inist's strike. There was no sign of violence. Shipyard operators couldn't say how long the plants would be operated without mach inists, none of whom were in- cluded in the back-to-work move.
 Those who crossed the picket lines were members of AFL met al trades unions, including boil CT makers, ship filters, steel workers, triggers, pipe filters, and similar craftsmen. About 200 po- licemen were on hand.
 The machinists voted last night 1702 to 355 against rsturning to work. The vote followed an ap- peal by Governor Olson, to re open the strike-closed eleven shipyards, carrying more than half billion dollars worth of de fense contracts.
