''M0B TOWN" 5 CAPITOL SCREEN
 FEATURE FILM
Dead End Kids, LittIe Tough Tough Guys Star in
 New Show

Audiences going this weekend to the Capitol Theatre, where the famed Dead End Kids and Little Tough Guys are starring in Uni versals Mob Town" will see an automobile smash-up rivalling any ever filmed. It is that way by &C., cident, not design.
 The picture requires a smash-up at the end, when large sedan is to skid around a street corner and crash into a parked car, driving the demolished vehicle through brick wall.
 Lloyd Ford, famed stunt man, was engaged for the driving assign ment.
 Strapped into the drivers sea and surrounded by pillows, Ford shot around the corner, but he mis- judged his speed and skidded more deeply than he had. intended, the car sweeping over the curb and into the high tower from which Buddy Harrison, auxiliary cam eraman, was shooting the scene. Though the car actually cracked against his underpinnings, Harrison kept on grinding away, and the scene was caught intact. Harrison explained later that it was not heroism that kept him from jumping, but the fact that there was no place to jump to.

 IN HOLLYWOOD
Is Star of Moon Over Miami," Now at 2Oth
 Century Theatre

Betty Grables figure has been chosen as the best in Hollywood. She was unanimously selected by a jury of four experts who staged a competition under the auspices of national magazine.
 The experts included Paul Hesse, famed artist and photographers pr. Mary Halton, noted physician Billy Rose. the famous snowman: and Irene, outstanding Hollywood designer.
 Betty achieved the high mark of 83, beating such headliners as Claudette Colbert, Ginger Rogers, Ann Sheridan and Paulette God dard, who followed Betty in the ranking in that order.
 Featured with Don Ameche and Robert Cummings in the new 20th Century-Fox Technicolor musical, Moon Over Miami" Now show ing at the 20th Century Theatre, Betty shows her figure off to good advantage in the film. For the first time on the screen she will appear in a bathing suit-and not any suit, but a special bathing suit wardrobe created for her by Travis Banton, the studios famous stylist. Of the six bathing suits, two are fashioned of rubber. two are of the knit variety and two made of white clinging silk.
 Betty's been a hit ever since she was seven. She made her profess sional debut at that age in her home town, St. Louis, Mo. In 1929 the precocious beauty induced her mother to remain in Los Angeles, where she studied with Albertina Rasch, the famous dancer.

 For twenty-six years prior to his retirement he was managing editor of the Globe-Democrat Before that he was with the PoSt-Dispatch. His heavy executive duties never were permitted to let the political picture get dim in his mind. Pol itics was his hobby.
 His First Days Job
 He entered newspaper work when he was 20 years old, after working for the Missouri Pacific Railroad. He liked to recall his first assign ment. It was to follow an irate husband, who with pistol in his pocket, was looking for his wife and the man with whom she had fled
 The assignment began at a. m. McAuliffe staid with it until the husband had slain his rival in mid afternoon a scoop for the young reporter. After he had cleaned up the staying he was hustled across the Mississippi river into Illinois to cover a train wreck. His day ended at midnight.
 When I finally got to bed that night" he said" was pretty firmly convinced there is not a dull moment in a reporters life.
 When he had applied for the reportorial job he told the city editor that wages were incidental. He worked six weeks before mus tering up enough courage to ask his chief about money.
 Do you expect them to deliver it on a silver platter?" beloved the editor
 Young McAuliffe took the hint. called at the cashiers cage. found six weeks pay and was convinced that it was "a reporters life for me" Within three weeks he was The Posts political reporter, as- signed to the state capitol.

 He won a free trip to Europe by his presidential guess of 1908. T had just returned from trip over the state and was convinced that William Howard Taft would carry MlSSOurl he reminlSced. At the old Planters bar one day made this prediction to a cigar manufacturer friend of mine, Al Kennedy. He offered to bet me I was wrong and just to show me that he meant it, said he would bet me an all-expense trip to Europe for the two of us against what had in my pocket. I had a $5. bill. So that was the wager.
 Taft, of course, won and we went to Europe the following sum- mer. was allowed $5. a day for tips and I saved enough to give me two additional weeks vacation at At lantic City after we returned. I all ways called this my luckiest bet 800 to l."

course, be in the hands of the

STATE Stresses
Tire Economy
Employees Must
Conserve Rubber

LANSING, March g. (R-
Following the warning of Leon
Henderson, director of civilian
supply and price administrator,
that the tire supply would shrink
drastically in the next three
years, Governor Van Wagner
said he would appeal to state
agencies generally to conserve
cars and employ trains and bus
ses for as much travel as posi-
BILE, in order that automobiles
may be available in the future
for vital state services which
cannot depend solely on public
transportation facilities.
He applauded steps taken by
Auditor General Vernon ].
Brown seeking an arrangement
whereby railroad and bus COM
panies would honor travel re-
QUESTION slips of state employees
and bill the state once a month.
He said this would encourage
employees to use these modes of
travel.
Meanwhile, Leo j. Nowicki,
state budget director, disclosed
that he would discuss with Van
wagner next week the feasibil-
ity of arbitrarily .akinR away
automobiles now assigned to
some state agencies and holding
them in reserve" A state law
gives Nowicki and Brown au-
thority to assign and take away
state owned cars as they see fit.
Efficiency of operation in
stead of convenience of the state
official or employee" Nowicki
asserted, should be the yard
stick which determines who
shall have automobiles assigned
by the state"
He said the State Highway
Department, which owns 27O
passenger cars, already has TAX
en- aut o m bile conservation
steps. Motor cars may not be
used by its employees without q
showing Of need, Nowicki said,
and no car may be used ON q
trip unless II Is well filled with
passengers, each of whom has
demonstrated that he needs au-
I o m o b lie transportation to q
given point. Where a full car
can not be sent out, Nowicki
said, the employe is required 70

week that extension of the work
week from 20 to IS hours was
used by some arrangements to
cut down personnel instead of
to increase production.
DESPERATE ENERGY
The American production men
said, however, that during the
final desperate effort to save
France, the men went to work
like insane people," working "a
hours a day and until they drop
ped-"but it was too late"
German managers, they as
serted, unquestionably have step
ped French factories up to as
near "a hours a day and seven
days a week as possible, while
expansion started by the French
has been continued under the
invaders.
French industrialists said the
Germans in many cases found
the French factories unchanged
Vichy reports show that the CT
troen factory was back in part
time operation within six weeks
after the German occupation.
Is PER CENT JUMP
One Frenchman, whose plant
at Paris turned out planes for
more than decade up to June,
1910, said Germany now was
getting more than Is per cent
of her trucks from France and
comparable amounts of planes,
tanks and guns.
MANY French places are re-
pairing aircraft for the Germans,
too" he added.
"The big French outfits like
Renault were still expanding
when ! left France" one Amer
lean said. "The job of conversion
to war was just started. The Ger
mans probably hurried up the
changes necessary, and have the
thing going full blast now"
Conversion of French ma
chimes to German specifications
was made easier, he pointed out,
by the fact that both use the
metric system of measurement.
SABOTAGE FACTOR
Sabotage as factor tending
to slow up the output of the
French factories was discounted.
"You can't get away with very
much when there are armed
guards every few feet, anxious
to shoot" was the comment of q
man who once sold planes to
France.
A French source said the Re-
nault factory at Paris, one tar
get of the recent British attack.
hired more than $4,000 workers
and turned out daily-before the
war -$16,000,000 worth of
trucks and allied products.
The Citroen plant-trucks and
tanks-had $4,000 to 10000 en-
ployes.
All of Frances aviation en-
CINE industry was in the Paris
region, he said. The war ma
teriels plants in and around
Paris were Likewise a major
part of Frances total.
