tears just wouldn't come,
though, and finally Director
Norman Taurog said, "All right,
kid, forget it. You dom have to
cry if you don't feel like it. OF
course everybody will be disap-
pointed, and the picture will be
failure" He was watching
her closely to see if there was
any sign of a breakdown, but
there wasn't. He went on:
They'll blame on me, and I'll
lose my job, and my family will
go hungry"

SPOILED CHILD
On the first day of a picture
in which So eral children were
to play bit roles, the mother of
one of them said she'd like to
speak privately t. the director.
Il thought I should caution
you about Ealph," she said, in
dicating a petulant-l looking brat
sitting on the other side of the
set.
He's very sensitive and high
strung, and if you were cross
with him he'd be awfully upset.
If you have any trouble with
Ralph, just slap one of the other

. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON

Until the fall of France, op-
position of Fascism and Musso-
lini had conferred among Italian
exiles in Paris. Italian liberals
who were able to get out of
France then made their way to
the United States and to Brazil,
Uruguay and Argentina. But
with the shift of the anti Fascist
headquarters to the new world,
the character of the movement
underwent a complete change.
In France, the anti-Fascists had
been merely another political
party in exile. In Pan Ameri-
can countries, however, the
movement was taken over by
the majorities of Italian emf
grees who had left Italy to es-
cape Fascist oppression.
In launching a new Italia Lib
re movement, therefore, the en-
phasis was shifted to restoring
Italy to the ranks of the democ-
racies in order to give the people
of Italy the same opportunities
which the Italian-Americans had
found under the Pan-American
republics. To these Italians, the
formation of Free Italy move
ment was in no way considered
treason against the mother
country. They regard Italy to-
day as another occupied coun-
try, dominated by Germany. For
the crown and the House of Sa-
voy these new world Italians
have lost their loyalty. They feel
the Liberal monarchy has
missed every opportunity to free
itself from the control of the
Fascists and Nazis.
Organization of the Montevi-
dec conference and the Free
Italy movement have in no
sense been a revolutionary acti-
witty. 1t has all been done in the
open, and since Pearl Harbor.
Leading spirit of the movement
in South America has been Tor
qualis Di Tella, prominent and
wealthy industrialist of Buenos
Aires. The conference could not
be held in the Argentine, for
though that country has the lar
gest Italian population in South
America, the right of assembly
has been suspended in a state of
siege. In Uruguay, however, the
latchstring was out A century
ago it was Garibaldi himself
who led the revolution for Uru-
guayan liberation. A further fac
tor in the choice of Montevideo
as the meeting place was the de-
sire to free the movement from
any faint of u. S. domination.
1t is in the United States, how.
ever, that the Italia Libre move
ment has its roots and it is here
that the new Italian National
Council under Count Sforza will
probably receive its greatest
stimulus, through Italian Amer
lean societies already in exist
ence.
Count Carlo Sforza IS a rec
ognized conservative, with lib
eral leanings. Behind him is the
powerful Mazzini Society or
ganization found in every large
Italian center. In New York it
is headed by DR.. Max Ascoli,
now an American citizen, a po-
litical scientist of note who left
Italy when Mussolini came into
power. It's secretary is Alberto
Tarchiani, editor of a liberal
Italian daily in Paris before the
fall of France. In general, these
Mazzini Society organizations
are groups of elite intellectuals.
The Free Italy movement has
labor backing in the United
States, though it has kept out
the Italian Communists.
1t is from such diverse ele-
ments as these that this new
Free Italy movement and its
Italian Legion will get support.

DR.. M. l.. Morris, of the Ameri-

Americas Card Authority

While the expert player is
cautious on the defense in open
ing new suits, this tendency
must not be pushed to extremes.
Exiting is in order if the high
card situation in the defenders
hand and dummy is such that
opening new suits may cost a
trick, and if there is no appar-
ent need for haste in develop
ing defensive tricks. But if the
high-card situation Is such as to
present no danger at all. it is
often best to make an explora-
tory lead in a new suit.

sTABILIZING WAGES

sTABILIZikG WAGES
After months Of puzzline, and much reading OF
speeches and consultation with authorities perhaps
we have found the legitimate line OF demorcot'on
between two approaches to the problem OF wartime
woees.
There hos been great deal Of talk about
wooe freezinq on the hand; and wage stoo'''zo-
tion on the other So far as most Of the definition
went these seemed to be different names tor the some
thno-thoueh proponents of stobillzotion expressed
intense dislike for "freezne," and the treezers we're
cold toward Sterilization.
Now it appears that the freezers would have every
wage high or low, peeeed right where it is until the
dancer of initiation is post The stobiIzers, on the
other hand, would have adequate wages Peg9ed, but
would permit the rosne of substondord wages to the
level of adequacy.
On that boss, few could argue successfully
oooinst the advocates of sterilization. One could,
however, easily throw the convention into turmoil by
nouirino where substondord wages end and adequate
wages begin.
President Roosevelt appears to be in the sobilizo-
ton camp.
The President appointed the War Labor Boord
and that body is responsible to him. In O sort OF
voque formess way, the WLB appears to be under
mandate to- Stabilize wages.
So whot does the board do? 1t gathers roots and
herbs and froeront grasses, stews them in copper
kettle in the light Of quorter-ecliPsed moon, and
brings forth potion guaranteed to cure everything
from stoto to nfoton.
