Pat O'Brien was a pretty proud
guy when the commandant of the
naval station at Lakehurst. N. j..
pinned the gold wings on him. He
beamed as the ofiicer told $4,000
men the award was being presented
because of his work for service men
and the dignity with which he has
portrayed service men in his pic
lures.
1t was very heart-warming for
Evening star., 1942-11-01


I got into the movies. Now, what
has happened to one person who has
only been in pictures six years IS
not important. But I found evidence
of many changes in motion pictures
Just reading copies-Questions and
answers-of interviews had when
was q 14-year- -old girl just starting.
If you will excuse the personal
nature Of such thing. I'd like to
pick just few questions at random.
Ill give the question and my answer
to 1t back in 1886. Then I'll tell
how I would answer the same ques-
ton today. I think it will show
little bit about how the movies have
changed. both in natural develop
ment and in the effects Of the war.
For instance:
Questions and Answers.
O. Briefly, what is you picture
about?"
A. G936). Three smart Girls is
the story of a New York family. The
father and mother are having
trouble and the story is about the
three kids efforts to keep them from
getting a divorce"
A. Q942). Forever Yours" is the
story OF an American girl who es-
capes from China with nine refugee
children after Jap bombings. They
arrive in San Francisco and there
she becomes involved with a wealthy
family-including handsome young
grandson"
The point is, that the Three
Smart Girls" story would not have
enough importance" to day, with
out at least background OF war
and the realistic problems people
face in wartime.
@. What time do you report for
work in tine morning?"
A. Q936). Il come in for hair
dress and makeup at seven o'clock,
and report on the set at nine"
A. 1942). Il come in for hair dress
and makeup at eight, and report
on the set at nine"
Many Varieties of Hair-do.
Because I'm older now, my hair
dress is naturally more complicated
and my makeup needs more at
tention. Sometimes my hair dress
is changed from one day to another
(my studio hairdresser, Alma Arm
strong. says I've had more than
100 different hair-do's in ten pic
tures) but improved methods and
materials have cut the time in half
@. What kind of clothes do you
wear In the picture?'
A. 1896. Simple. girlish things
just the kind of things an average
American girl of IA would wear"
A. 0e42). ''Everything from even
ing gowns to one outfit consisting
OF a torn skirt and blouse. a mans
pea Jacket and high mems shoes"
Here's something which frankly
hasn't changed much except for
mel wear high heels and silk
stockings now instead of fat heels
and Bobby socks) except in style
and for materials and other things
under priorities. I've had every
thing In the wardrobe line-from
two changes costing s2450 in 100
Men and A Girl" to % changes
costing $4,000 in Its A Date"

Secretary Urges
Swift Droft Of
Men 18 to 20

WASHINGTON, Oct. ID - R
- Secretary of War Stimson, ar
guing for the draft of ID and 10
year Odds, estimated today that
the army now had 4,250,OOO men
and next year would swell to
100000.
He gave this breakdown of
1943's army needs to the House
military committee:
Air forces, 100000.
Organized ground units, 81
300, 900.
Services of supply and related
duties 100000.
The secretary told the House
military committee today the
army's manpower needs for 1913
were 100000 men, approxi-
mately 3,250,O00 more than are
now in service.
URGES ACTION
These, he said in stressing the
Importance of lowering the draft
age from 20 to ID years, in
cluded 100000 men in the air
forces, 100000 in organized
ground units, 1000, 900 for train
ing and for the services of sup
ply, and an additional 1000, 900
for actual duty with the services
of supply.
He estimated present army
strength at 4,250,O00.
The Secretary told the COM
mittee the United States wants
to have in 1913 "the largest air
force with sustaining units -
which production and transpor-
tation will permit"
His figure of 100000 in the
air forces he described as "a
conservative estimate" adding
that any changes will be up
ward.
The army, he said, is training
and will continue to train as
many ground units as can be
sent overseas.
Stimson estimated that the
ground forces needs for 1913, in
Guiding those now abroad and
in training at home to 60 over
seas, at 100000.

Stimson was to be followed by

MOSCOW, Oct. ID up =
The blunted G m n salient
reaching toward the Volga was
hemmed in tighter today by
new Russian gains northwest
and south of Stalingrad, and
battlefront dispatches reported
that even in the debris strewn
streets of the city Red Army
counterattacks had rolled the
Nazis back.
Thus in the 51st day of Stall
ingrad's siege Hitler's mightiest
1912 onslaught appeared to have
lost momentum, with barely an
other month until the present
biting chill of Autumn on the
steppes gives way to the second
Winter of the war in Russia.
Aside from the sharp street
battles in which Stalingrad's
defenders reclaimed positions,
the fight for Winter shelter" in
the ruins of the city was revert

Rejects

Ford. Chrysler
en- Pleos Spurned

WASHINGTON, Oct. Up
The War Labor Board was
winding up its business with the
u o m o b lie industry's big
three" today after having re-
jected all demands for $1-a-
day increase in pay.
Last of the three worker
groups to be turned down were
$4,000 Ford Motor Company
employees. Previously the board
had rejected the $1-a-day de-
mands of 225,00O General Mo-
tors and $4,000 Chrysler work
ers although granting four
cents-an-hour increases to both
goups.
Presumably no increase what
ever was granted the Ford
workers. The board, announcing
its decision yesterday. limited
itself to declaring that the re-
quest had been denied. A board
official, who declined to be
quoted by name, said no justifi-
cation had been found for an
increase.
The wage boosts in each in
stance had been asked by the
United Automobile workers
(CIO) union, which has con-
tracts with all three companies.
The union claimed that $1-a-day
increases - based on a request
