Miniver Film
is Held Over

Like most authors who are
going to have a book filmed, l
had been feeling a little appre-
hensive about just what was GO
ing to happen to it, but now that
I've seen the picture, realize
that l needn't have worried in
the least. AS a matter of fact,
l got a lovely surprise when l
saw how closely the film had
followed the characterizations in
the book. And what's more the
whole Miniver family behaved in
the film exactly as l had always
believed and hoped that they
would behave when the bad
times came. / think it's a grand
picture. l feel I'd like to thank
everybody in the film industry
who has had anything to do with
the making of this picture and l
want to say this, too, that after
seeing the picture l feel even
more convinced than l did be-
fore that there are Mrs. Mini
vers in every freedom-loving
country in the world and that
they and their families, like the
ones in my book, will be able to
meet any trial that may come
with the same courage, forti-
tude and faith. The popular
Mrs. Miniver" film will be held
over at the Jewel Theatre to-
night which marks the goth run
in seven days TO crowded houses.
A great tribute paid to great
picture.

Hess Wife May
Join Mate in
Great Britain

LONDON, Oct. IA - (R) -
Frau Ilse Hess, wife of the one
time Deputy Fuehrer of Nazi
Germany, Rudolf Hess, wants
to join her husband in his Brit
ish internment, a report reach
ing the House of Commons said
today.
William horne, Laborite,
gave notice he would ask An
thony Eden, Foreign Secretary,
What reply is being made to
the request of Frau Hess, wife
of Rudolf Hess who is now
somewhere in England, for per-
mission to join her husband
The question did not state
where Frau Hess is now living.
Very little is known of Frau
Hess movements since her hus-
band left Germany in a Messer-
schmitt fighting plane May 10,
1941, and landed in Scotland,
presumably in an effort to ne
gotiate a peace between Britain
and Germany or to invite Brit
ain to join in war on Russia.
(After Hess flight she was
reported to have gone to Italy
and, later to Switzerland, but
these reports apparently were
not true. She was seen in Bcr-
lin week after Hess left.
CA brunette, mannishly dress-
ed woman she always summed
the society events which at
tracted the wives of other lead
ers in the Nazi Hierarchy and
spent much time in her Munich
home, caring for her only child,

Maine May be
Reaction Clue
to WarPoHcy
Republicans Seen
as Winners

(By international News Service
Almost two months ahead OF the
nation, Maine holds its general cleo
ton today, furnishing the first acid
test of public opinion since Ameri'
ca entered the war.
Politicos predict that the Repab-
leans will win the gubernatorial
and senatorial races in Maine and
probably in two Of the states three
congressional districts.
Gcv. Sumner Sewall (R), seeking
reelection, is opposed by George
W. Lane. Jr.. Democratic banker
OF Lewiston. L. s. Senator Wallace
II. White (R) is running for third
term in Congress against Fulton j.
Redman Cd.
State Democratic leaders believe
that their party's chief strength
lies in the first congressional dis
trict where former Gov. Louis j.
Brann Cd, opposes Robert Hale
(R), former member OF the state
legislature. In the second district,
Rep. Margaret Smith (R), seeks
reelection against Bradford Re-
donnett CD, and in the third dis.
trict Rep. Frank Fellows, Jr., (R)
Is unopposed iVr reelection.
Anticipating that the state will
go Republican. politics are con
cerned more about the ratio OF
Republican to Democratic votes for
clues to national sentiment Huge
Republican majorities would bring
JOY to the COP while close results
or Democratic victories would be
hailed by Democratic chieftains as
indicating all is well for their party.
This week will virtually wind up
the state primaries and conven-
tons for selection of nominees for
the November elections. Primaries
will be held tomorrow in Massa.
