Behind-lhe-Scenes Battle With
 Biz Trusts and Monopolies

WASHINGTON-It has been obscured by the bat ties of Khark0v Burma and KinhWa, but behind the scenes battle just as important domescay has been raging between Secretary of War StimsOn and trust busting Thurman Arnold over whether the big corpor ations which monopolized war materials with Germany should be punished, permitted to continue their monopolies
 Secretary Stmson doesn't want these big firms both cred with antitrust suits, and some weeks ago wrote letter 10 the White House, demanded that they be stopped Thurman Arnold he said playing into Hters hands by naggng the big companies while they were filing war orders Roosevelt grinnng, gave the letter to Attorney General Riddle Bddle also grimm gave it to Arnold And Arnold wrote Stmson letter which nearly raised the roof of the War Department He pointed out that there was no fighting Hitler if u S. industry was going to practice the same klnd ot monopoliStic. cut-thrOat tactics as NaZl business.
 Temporarily, however, the War Department won out The Justice Department finally agreed to hold up prosecution of certain cases among them General El ectrcs monopoly of luorescen lamps, on the ground that General Electric officials busy with war production they did have time to appear in court.
 They Found Time
 But suddenly Thurman Arnold learned that although General Electric did not have time to be prosecuted, they did have time to prosecute their another company High Grade SyVana, for alleged violation of G. E.. monopoly of fuorescent lighting.
 So Arnold stepped into this private legal battle and asked that the government be made party to the suit The effect of this to contend that General Electric had no right to it's patent monopoly, and that High Grade Sylvania entitled to manufacture huores- cent lamps Arnold also told General Electric that he intended to ndct them every month Next day, Arnold got phone call from the War Department. We with draw objection 10 prosecuting General Electric was the order.
 General Electric had decided that it was better to face government suit than to have the government intervene in it's private suits So told it's friend the War Department 10 throw in the sponge Insiders sder 1t the most significant antitrust victory in some time

As soon as a cross was con- structed and placed where Ke- vans body was found, accord ing to custom, the party left as soon as possible and descended the mountain with the mutllated corpse, last of perhaps the great est Kodiak bear hunter Alaska had ever known.
 By the day of the funeral many frightful stories of the scene where the body was found, and also of the bear, could be heard. Some said the bear was spotted and had a long tail.
 Mir. Baumann, a fish commits sioner there at the time, went up the day after the funeral and looked over the scene. He report ed that he found a huge dead bear, that it had been shot II times, and that the fatal shot had been fired by Kewan after he had been so ferociously chew ed and mauled.
 Thus ends the true saga of Kewan: I was all the more thrill ed and determined to get a Kod- iak bear, too.

When you get that tube of toothpaste or shaving cream rolled up to the last squeeze, don't throw the tube away. Save the empties" is the watch word from now on
 Because of the serious shorage in the supply of tin fo1 defense, and because most collapsible tubes consist of almost pure tin, the War Production Board has deemed 1t necessary to issue an order requiring all retailers, be- fore delivering new tube of shaving cream or tooth paste, to obtain the return of a used tube. (Any collapsible tube, not Reces- sarily of the same product.)

 Kewan the day before The na- tive is very skeptical of a wound ed bear but they braved the tall grass an d tag alders. They searched all that day without success. The morning of the sec ond day the search began again, and the group knew by this time that if Kewan had been lost he would have wandered out by then. The fact that he had killed Al bears was proof enough that he knew his surroundings well
 After hours of searching they found thick clump of brush, a possible hide-away for the crip- pied bear. As the men skeptic- ally approached they saw no bear but plenty of sign where the bear had been lying and pac- ing to and fro as If watching someone. Not far away one of the group shouted his discovery of a gun, the 3O-30 Winchester belonging to Kewan The tram pied and beaten grass gave signs of the struggle that had taken place, and a few feet away Kewan's pipe and tobacco lay at the foot of a small tree. Also there were blood signs on the p De.
 The party concentrated its search, and it was but a few minutes that the body of Ke- wan was found, lying on patch of snow near a small creek. He had been bruised and torn, bit ten through the ribs and face, and most of his jaw was torn out The monstrous bear was

AUTHENTTCTTY's THE THfNG

AUIkAEN1ACAT1sS 1kAE IMANU
 I'd Byron, who producs the MT, District Attorney" dramas, Is one of those individuals who believes firmly ia authentic effects. 'That way,n he says, "even on authority on the particular thing you're doing the general public's understanding 1t, maybe they don't know exactly why you did 1t that way, but 1t will sownd good to them because it's right" It was an actors question that got Byron started. They were playing scene between @ convict who had just been released from prison andanother who had been out for two years. Prisoners explained Byron, are not encouraged to do Q lot ot talking, 90 they get into the habit Of talking quietly and la short sentences. The scene, he said, should be played that way. The actors agreed that the treatment was valid, but wondered just how many lis- teneTs would realize what was going on. Then the producer explained his ideas about authenticity, giving Q couple of examples. When a recent script called for 6 telegraph rnes- sage, he had licensed operator rap out the actual message in code so that he couldn't be picked up by on expert who might happen to be listening. If an actor Is supposed to be talking over his shoulder to someone holding Q gun at his back, Byron has him play the scene with his back to the Inicrophone to get that over-the-shoulder sound. Now you know why MT. District Att torney" makesbelieve sounds SO real. It's production authenticityI

First there was a phone call from
a woman who refused to give her
