Amusing, Romantic

It isn't often that a picture as
gay and witty as Take a Let
ter, Darling" co-starring Rosa
lind Russell and Fred MacMur-
ray, is brought to the screen,
but the Jewel Theatre has
proved that such a picture is a
reality.
Here is smart comedy,
played superbly by two grand
stars. 1t is a highly amusing
romance of big business wom-
an and her herman secretary.
Reversing the conventional
office set-up, it is Rosalind Rus
sell who's boss, not MacMurray.
She hires him as her secretary,
but not for his shorthand and
tipping skill. AS a matter of fact,
he doesn't know one pot-hook
from another. He gets the job
simply on the strength of his
good looks
His bewilderment when Miss
Russell asks him IL he can dance,
if he can wear tails well, if he
has any female attachments, is
really funny to watch. Person
ally, he'd rather be rid of the
whole thing, especially when he
learns he is expected to escort
Miss Russell here and there. and
help her land accounts by being
nice to suspicious wives. But he
needs the job.
1t isn't long before MacMur-
ray, tired of taking Rosalind's
orders, begins to give them, and
then there is fun-to-pay in earn
est. Take Letter, Darling

Foreign Office spokesman as
serted today there had been no
change in Finnish policy since
the rejection last November of
an American proposal that Fin

He added that Finland had
neither given nor received any

Contrary to the report broad

Already, he declared, we have
taken the offensive in the Solo
mons and there for the first time
we have wrested the initiative
from the enemy, and our new
navy should enable us to retain
the initiative right to the end"
On June 80, 1941, Vinson said,
United States at war had 697
combat, auxiliary, patrol and
mine vessels building, while on
June 80, 1912, there were $3.50
vessels in this category under
construction in addition to 218
being built for Allied nations.
This, he added, does not include
1859 smaller vessels under con-
struction.
DOUBLE OUTPUT
Counting all types of planes, he
went on, I'VE added 1895 new
aircraft to the Nays air arm
in the fiscal year ended June 80,
1912, as compared with 2,067 in
the preceding year."
Plant expansion, he said, "is
rapidly building up to an out
put of just under 1000 navy
planes a month";" with the Navy
bearing its full share of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's program call
ing for 10000 planes in 1912
and 125, 900 in 1913"
In addition, he pointed out,
the Navy is directing the produc-
ton of planes for Allied ma
tons, especially China and Rus
STA, and supervising the train
ing of foreign personnel for
their operation.
He described current produc-
ton for the Navy as so vast
that three-fourths of it is the
work of new plants which have
been specially built, fooled and
stated since July /, 1870"
A leading congressional ad-
vocate of placing emphasis on
the construction of plane car
riers, Vinson said the war to
date has brought home to Amer
lea and to the world at large the
fact that the carrier has sup
planted the battleship as the
backbone of a modern navy"
He described the Nays COM
bat airplanes as "unexcelled in
performance, striking power
and equipment" with the new
torpedo bomber being perhaps
the most lethal weapon yet de-
vised for action against surface
vessels"
Long range carrier-type and
patrol planes, he said, are being
produced in sufficient numbers
to supply our bases from Ice
land to South America and from
Alaska to the Indian Ocean,"

Soviet reports quoted a pris-
