1t. Col. RomuIo Coming

men and women still are fighting
the Japanese, and will continue to
fight them, 1t. Col. Carlos P.sRo-
mulo, former publisher and one
time aide de camp to Gen. Douglas
Macarthur, said today.
The year 1912 50 far has been
a momentous one for Col. Romulo.
He fought through the Philippine
invasion and was one of the last
men to leave Bataan Peninsula; he
escaped from the islands aboard
The Duck, an antiquated fighting
plane, and he received the Pulitzer
Prize for his interpretive articles
on Malay and Asia

Col. Romulo was publisher of the
Manila Herald, the Mabhuhay
Monday Mail Debate and four other
vernacular newspapers. before the
japanese bombed the Philippines.
He ruefully emphasized the word
was" Enemy airmen bombed his
printing plant for two consecutive
nights, and destroyed 1t.
His Pulitzer Prize articles, written
before the japanese attack, were
amazingly prophetic and accurate.
Asked If the enemy had singled out
his plant for destruction, Col. Ro-
mulo replied:
Il don't grant them that much
workmanship"
Praises Colonial Policy.
He was assigned to Gen. Mac
Arthur's stan at the outbreak of

all hope Of organized resistance to
the Japanese was gone.
Col. Romulo paid tribute to the
United States colonial policy in the
Philippines, as shown by the Tyd-
ings-McDufie Act. which granted
the islands complete independence
! in 1946.
He said this policy has shown the
world it is the only colonial policy
which can win a subject people s
loyalty.
'Bataan and Corregidor will stand
forever as evidence of that loyalty
to the United States" he declared.

A Lad Discomfort
Because of a Ladd

Newcomer Russell Hoyt. young
RKO-Radio actor, has been trying to
make people forget his striking re-
semblance to Alan Ladd. He's been
getting pretty tired of being asked
for Ladd's autographs.
But currently his own studio has
no part suited to him, using him
only in bits in Seven Days Leave"
and Here We Go Again." So he
was loaned to Paramount to play
In Lucky Gordon" The part of a
Ladd henchman who, because Of
his striking resemblance to the star,
is able to create alibis for him!,
Originally Ladd was slated to do
both roles. The plan was changed
when it was discovered that he had
practically a twin in appearance,
working in the studio next door.

Astor had come back.
But I had been working steadily, +"
she explained. "It just happened
that those first talkies were in in
consequential films which nobody
saw. But I hadn't been away. I
had been doing all right from a
financial standpoint. I just wasn't
in high gear from the standpoint
Of accomplishment.
Yet plenty of other business
people have to take jobs that are
not particularly inspirational. A
writer often turns out one good
story and follows it with a couple
OF mediocre ones. Then he writes
something else good. But he's
working all the time. No reason
why he should be labeled a down.
and-outer.
I've made plenty of movies that
I'm ashamed of now. I took them
so the landlord would greet me with
a friendly smile and so I could
open those bills the first of the
month without wincing."
Won Beauty Contest.
Mary Astor is one of the few Hol-
lywood headliners who survived
after winning a beauty contest.
AS Lucille Langhanke of Quincy,
Ill.,, she won one at is. Her film
debut was remarkable in that she
was starred in her first picture,
playing the title role in THE Beg

old Tri-Art Studios in New York.

of the 13 wampas baby stars" and
from that point on her career pro-

Sometimes a career speeds, other

First time Mary was so labeled
was when talkies hit Hollywood

leading woman in silent pictures.
Everybody said that Mary, along

1t was in "Dodsworth." It was a
great movie, but there had been
no lapse of time between it and
the two she had made previously.
The phrase so hateful to steadily
working actors was to be hurled at
her twice in the next few years.
1t came after her second marriage

birth to baby. Every business
woman takes time off when she

Definite Comeback,
The second jolt came just last
year, when she won the academy
award for the best supporting role
performance of 1910. That was in
THE Great Lie" wherein she scored
her greatest picture theft-that of
walking away with Bette Davis

a definite Comeback" the critics
agreed. Mary says it was merely
a climax, that she had been working
steadily toward that academy goal
