The rigbt TO
COME and GO

THIS is fight to the finish we are in-a grim
Awar for survival. The stakes are the highest
in all the history of mankind. And one of them
is the Americans traditional right to come and go
when he pleases.
Our enemies say that they will erase this birth
right of ours that they'll tell us when we can come
and Co. But they'll find that it's easier said than DONE
No goosestepping Nazi; no squint-eyed Jap is
going to tell Americans that they can't run down
to the seashore OF vacation in the mountains or
take the children to visit Aunt Mary back home.
For we are going to win this war!
How? With the bravery and the brilliance of
our men in uniform. With the toll and sweat of
millions of loyal workers in forest, field, factory
and mine. With our genius for invention organi-
zation and production. With the willing sacrifices
of every patriotic American.
Yes, will win this war-even if we have to
lay aside for awhile our right to come and 20
when please.
That's why the officers and employees of the
Southern Railway System have solemnly pledged
their all to the winning of the war. That's why
our entire transportation plant; all our resources of
man-power and experience enlisted for the
duration in the service of the nation. That's why
we put the transportation needs of Uncle Sam
frst-before any and every civilian need that your

preserved for you and for the seaeeatioo e

too friendly with the enemy So the
script was changed; Miss Bennett
Is only nice when she has to be,
which is when she is trying to worm
military secrets from the officer.
The Nazi was too much of
gentleman, Karlsen held-too polite,
too gracious. The Nazi officers he
met, during the six weeks he was
in German prison after his mill
tary unit was captured, and later
during the occupation, were rude,
not at all like the old school Ger
man officers we met during the
first war"
Blackouts in Holland are complete
every night. The writer's had all
kinds of goings on in the streets
after dark. Karlsen ruled other
wise, because no one goes out after
dark in Holland these nights. The
writer's gave the characters free use
of automobiles. There are no autos,
Karlsen said, because the NaIs con-
f1scated them all and took them to
Russia.
No Meat, Eggs or Milk.
Karlsen observed that the Hol-
landers in the story were sitting
down to some pretty fine meals.
Well, he Strengthened that out.
There Is no such thing as a fine
meal in Holland, he said-no meat,
no eggs, no milk, no fruit. And
the Germans don't pay for their
food and quarters, either, he added.
They gave us slips of paper, good
for cash after the war;" said Karlsen
bitterly.
He refuses to say how he got
out of Holland, but he hints that
the trip was difficult and expensive.
Karlsen came here because his par
ents are here; they came to visit
before their homeland was invaded.
Karlsen told this experience,
which was hastily added to the
script:
"The Nazis came to my factory
to see what they wanted. On my
desk was a picture of President
Roosevelt. whom I have long ad-
mired. One general said, IL that
your daddyT I said, No, he IL my
uncle-and I expect to 60 and visit

seemed to them like a good idea to
play a story Of love and intrigue in
volving Joan Bennett, Franchot
Tone and a Nazi general in occu-
pied Holland, even though they
were totally without local color.
They just used their imaginations.
Richard Wallace was getting
ready to direct the piece when he
read in a local newspaper that
refugees Karlsen and his wife and
two children had recently arrived
here. Karlsen was summoned, in
the imperious way that Hollywood
gets what 1t wants.
The idea of being an adviser ap-
pealed to Karlsen 'CI am without
funds") so we will now fade out
and fade in again on the scene
after Karlsen has pefused the script.
To put 1t mildly, he was shocked at
the picture of Amsterdam as Wal

HOLLYWOOD.
It was lunch recess during Marlene
Dietrich's first day of work in a new
picture, The Spoilers" old Rex
Beach story. She will play-guess
what: another shady lady.
This time she is the owner of a
saloon in the Yukon. But she gets
her man-this time John Wayne
although he half falls for a nice"
girl in the middle Of the plot.
Lunch for Dietrich was a tiny
sandwich and a cup of tea. She
leaned against piano nibbfing, and
warbling in that throaty voice, some
thing about, why can't you love me
the way I love you?"
She kept her big blue eyes glowing
at an elderly extra at the piano. He
was so pleased he Squirmed. His
piano lessons were taken in an
Jump, ump" school, but Dietrich
looked as though he were Paderewski
in disguise.
She cooed, "It was dr-r-ead-ful-l
in the Army camp the oth-air night.
I co-o-o-dent remember. 1t went like
this"
She turned up her inch-long eye
lashes and warbled:
when you get me in cozy spot,
"You find out I am a patriot"
She tossed glance at a half
dozen grip men. It must have been
a leftover glance from the evening
in the Army camp. The grip men
shifted their feet and grinned. No
body spoke. They all waited for
Dietrich. She pursed her lips, swept
her lashes down, and started over
again on love-"
Her Face Looked Sad.
She was dressed in a gay nineties
blouse of very peekaboo white lace
over hesh-colored net. I kept won-
dering If it really was flesh -colored
net. I suppose the grip men did, too.
Her golden hair was pulled up over

head. The hollows in her cheeks

took an insolent pose. She bor-

Dietrich has a theory about the
way actresses should act. wanted
to know about it.
She says the public should know
less about them, that it's mistake
for actresses to live and act just
like ordinary people. Perhaps that's
why she often wears slacks over
those famous legs.
She looked appalled, that every one
knows Garbo drinks carrot juice.
Carrot juice" she repeated, sis
1t exciting then?"
Well, no, but what is?
MarIene Didn't Know.
She shrugged her shoulders and
pouted as though 1t was an unan-
swerable question. Maybe those
black f1shnet hose she wore in "Des-
try Rides Again? She smiled at
that. She liked the part. That was
the picture where, in a barroom
brawl, she gets kicked. That was
supposed to be her comeback pic
ture after a long absence from the
screen. Hollywood figures people
are interested when Dietrich gets
kicked.
She won't be kicked in "The
Spoilers" She won't even warble.
She has just finished q picture,
"The Lady Is willing" in which
she had to handle baby. She was
injured in fall on the set.
Dietrich is the wonder of other
actresses here. She's married to
Rudolph Sieber, a former German
director, who seems to prefer New
York. Dietrich battles lonesome
ness by showing up in the towns
most expensive night clubs with
whatever male star is the talk Of
the town. Recently it has been the
French importation, Jean Cabin.
He's supposed to be Frances great
lover. He's gray-haired man.
Cabin recently played the white
tie background for one of those
appearances Dietrich evidently
thinks is all that a stars public
should know. 1t was a Hollywood
opening: Spots, orchids, micro
phones, autograph hounds.
Most Of the younger stars ar
rived on time looking like cafe So
ciety glamour girls-dewy and bored.
They were all in their seats when
suddenly there was a hush in the
theater. Behind me I heard Bruce
Cabot whisper, Pipe Dietrich.
What q Show!"
Dietrich was trailing slowly down
the right aisle, In black velvet,
thin as drainpipe. She had q
3-yard ermine stole carelessly droop-
ing over her shoulders and
black halo hat dripping in back
with erminetails. Her face looked
pale as q death's-head. She sank,
like a weary Queen of Sheba, into
the plush seat and then threw .
bleak little smile around. The au-
dience sighed and went back to
talking.
Evidently the entrance was too
good to waste on Hollywood. In two
weeks the New York papers de-
scribed q Dietrich entrance into
the theater. It was the same act.
Even Cabin was there.
