final exit from the world he had long entertained on Sunday.
 The child of an tnerant New England minister much of Skinners boyhood was spent fishing the same streams and playing with the boys in the Vermont mountains who were the chums of young Calvin Coolidge. He made his theatrical bow Broadway in the old Nibo's Garden in 1879 and was star in his own right in 1894, after spending seasons in New York and long months troupng on the road with stock companies Theater goers will remember him as Hajj, in "Kismet" Tony in Mister Antonio and the swaggering Col Philippe Bridau in The Honor of the Family
 Frankness was ever one of skinners trade marks He said what he felt and often in hot water because of his remarks. But he stuck to his guns and true to his ideals of his beloved theater
 When police raids on Broadway theaters began in 1927, Skinner declared:
 There may be things wrong with the theater but there is nothing radically wrong that it needs this wholesale readjustment We perhaps bit more frank than we were before but so is the world which we are attempting to interpret"
 Once he told meeting of the Methodist Preachers Association of New York
 The church always has recognized the theater as rival drawing power and has attempted to sup press it. This jealousy is apparent today in the ef
 
 pose censorship the theater."
 To him. the theater was a power which should not be violated by any amount of censor imposed from outsiders.
 He made just movie "Ksmet," and it was while he was filming this that story told to illustrate his uncanny ability to take character and never drop that character until his work was completely
 During the filming of scene from the Moham- medan drama slight earthquake occurred, setting the big movie sets swayng and the actors and cameramen scurrying. It came just as Skinner was repeating the line, May Allah strike me in the fury of his wrath if do not fulfill my pledge" When he quake had ceased and were counted he said, salaaming piously, Allah be praised"

HITLER AND NEGROES

After a trip through the south Chip Robert, ex-secretary of the Democratic National Committee, is assuring friends that the Negroes are possibly more opposed to Hit Ter than the rest of the country.
 As an illustration he cites among other things, a conversation with an old servant in Atlanta who said:
 Mister Chip. I hear this man Hitler wants to send all the colored folks over to Africa
 T guess he'd make it pretty bad for all of us, Auntie"
 Well I reckon we've all got to pitch in and win this here war It'd be awful bad for us if Hitler came over here. I've got brother in Detroit and my mother in Ma con, and the rest of the family scattered all round, and I hopes if we does have to go to Africa, Mister Chip, you'll help to get us all on the same boat
 But I sure don't like the idea of going to Africa, Mister Chip Why I hear dey eats folks over there"

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not con,peW
JANUARY

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY ' This is a fairly favorable day, although there is an ill omen af- | fecting our Navy It is date for decisive action in civil life as well as in the naval or military serv- ice.
 HEART AND HOME: Every day should be made memorable as the American way of life continues undisturbed in a world gone mad with war. K in d y deeds should mark all asso- citations with relatives and friends. The wise will enjoy to the fullest all the pleasures that hith- erto have been accepted thought leSsly.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Bitter cri- icism of Washington may become prevalent as the fatalities of war ire reported to the American peo- ole, but they are counseled to re- frain from judgment since all the facts pertaining to our participa- tion in world conflict cannot be made known. Through this month and next fifth columnists will be able to stir sympathetic response 70 their misrepresentations but ater there will be splendid unified support of the nations foreign policies. Astrologers warn that dark lays will dawn, but they will be ollowed by brilliant deeds that ight the path to final victory.
 INTERNATIONAL FAIR s: Again the return of Uranus to iemini is of evil portent, since the aspects breed dissension and mis- representation. The next few months will bring severe tests, since they prepare for the most supreme perils that have ever men lced the United States. Disloyalty in high places as well as among persons of low estate may be ex- oected, because propagandists will attempt to undermine the founda- ions of our democracy This is the lime for all-out patriotism. Persons whose birthdate it. IS have the augury of year of pro gress along previously untrodden paths. Persistent courage and high aspiration will be successful.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be serious minded and inclined toward meditation. Girls will possess great personal charm.

Little Adolf with the Charlie Chaplin mustache to be facing revolt in his ranks, if we can be- lieve the stories hear from
 Three Hitler field marshals were reported yes- erday ready to lay down their commands This blow to the solidarity of the Nazi cause tum- bling top of a report that Finland now sees a good opportunity to military operations against Russia
 The Films have never claimed to be an ally of the Axis They maintain their against the Red Bear has been in an effort to regain lost territory But their assistance to the swastika horde in the attack upon the Stainites was undoubtedly of great aid to Adolf in the early days of the Russian paign, when all German roads seemed to be leading toward Moscow
 The military rift in the Nazi command may have result of Hitler taking the top gen. erals post himself At the time allied powers were reported to have looked on the a break for the democracies. With Hitler head strategst, some crackpot scheme was sure to place the German military machine in jackpot, they reasoned.
 The field marshals now reported in rebellion are the descendants of the same old German military families whose members broke with the Kaiser in the later days of World War l. Sunday night Wal ter Winchel New York coumnist and international keyhoe listener, reported that the field marshals ready to make a peace without Hitler He stated further that if the German military family patch up their inside troubles and Hitler proves himself good general the field marshas will prob ably be willing to make peace with der fuehrer, but if his strategy fails, they will most surely make a peace against him.
 Whatever the truth of the matter, we have heard often in the past two years that all not well within the Reich, but the smoke seems thicker than We hope this means that the flame of revolt against tyranny is at at last begin ming to lick at Adolf and give him his overdue hotfoot

uniforms, fire hats, sensational rescues as movie material.
 Mrs Roosevelt, on the other hand believes that civilian defense must be built from the ground up from the poorer people who don't have the price of uniforms, the type of people who have been the backbone of civilian defense in England. She also sees the pie ture in terms of morale building and long-range work even in con- munities where bombs may never fall.
 This difference came out sharply when LaGuardia announced that Civilian Defenders would have smart, expensive uniforms designed by Hattie Carnegie. According to Mrs. Roosevelt's friends he wanted the Defenders to be slim, slender females, smartly costumed, parad- ing down Fifth Avenue, saluting him from the reviewing stand.
 But Mrs. Roosevelt wanted the Civilian Defenders to be simple folk who would join for real sery- ice and who would wear a costume costing not more than three dol lars.

 Whether such craft have sufficient usefulness to warrant their construction on a large scale by this country is matter for the proper techncians to decide. But, in any event they interesting subject for speculation.
 The Navy revealed that on the basis of examina- tion of of the midgets captured at Pearl Harbcr the tiny submarine has top speed of "A knots and ! cruising radius of 200 miles. It is 40 feet long, with beam of only five feet. Each one ap- parently carries two substandard size torpedoes addition to a 3O0-pound high explosive charge
 The main value of such craft is their ability to operate in very shallow water. Because of their dminutive size, they may be carried the decks 1f larger vessels and launched when action is n- tended Some may be based in the shallow waters around the numerous small islands which dot the Pacific from which they could prey on enemy craft.
 These usages have corresponding faults. Be- the mdgets lightly constructed and quite cramped, they can cruise for only limited periods and probably only under favorable weather conditions

 Paul Smith, new and efficient public relations officer for the Navy, was a speech writer m strategy adviser for Wendell Will kie. He was also editor and pub fisher of The San Francisco Chron- icle. Winston Churchill didn t know it, but the highest compli- ment paid to him before he left Washington for Canada was the remark by cynical Senator Tydings of Maryland: You could follow that fellow anywhere" All who lunched or dined with Churchill were impressed with his valor as a trencherman, especially the gusto with which he slowed away little green onions. When Churchill disregarded all warnings and strode out into an open square to wave at a crowd, Secret Service officer muttered: That man wants to be shot!" Wendell Willkie sent personal Christmas notes to all the newsmen who covered his 1940 campaign tour.
