Kissing America's No. pin-up girl, Betty Grable, is much more fun, John Harvey said today, than writing stories for children or neck ing with Tondeleyo before jury of 13 stern-faced critics.
 John Harvey is a young stage acc tor who spent 10 years unsuccess- fully trying to crash Hollywood and then won Q role for which he had some 10 million rivals. He's Betty Grables boy friend in "Pin-Up Girl"
 Betty plays a dual role. She's a glamorous night club singer named Laura Lorraine by night and prim stenographer. with horn trimmed glasses, by day. This guy Harvey pitches WOO with both Cradles. And they can't hide those legs with horn trimmed glasses.
 The darnedest things happen to John Harvey.
 SLOW START
 For o while he couldn't even get Q job on the stage, let alone Holly wood. So, to keep from starving, AAC WEVVG SJOktCo 4VI C1kAA0EGkl AJ three-quarters of cent Q word.
 Then, when he got going good in Q Los Angeles stage revival of White Cargo" a reform wave swept the cast into court. When the jury failed to agree on whether the play had moral uplift, Harvey was asked to take Tondeleyo in his arms and show the jury just what happened, please"
 Harvey did, the jury blushed, turned its collective thumbs down and he was out of job again.
 But being out of a job was noth- ing new to young Harvey. Ten years ago. after graduating from a Los Angeles high school, he started knocking on the gates of Hollywood. Nothing happened.
 Finally, he was tested for Will Rogers's "Ah, Wilderness" But he was judged too young for the part. A few weeks later he was tested for a Jane Withers picture. This time they said he was too old

Ask Telegraph
Rate Reduction

WASHINGTON. May 81 - Re-
auctions in rates on telegraph
messages between United States
and South America, aggregating
more than 81. 100000 annually,
have been ordered tentatively by
the FEC.
The reductions would affect
principally All-America Cables and
Radio. Inc. which is by far the
principal l.. s. carrier handling
such messages. Fees report states
that All-America'S present rates
are excessive. in view of the COM
pany's high rates of earnings. and
that its rates should be reduced on
an annual basis in the amount of
at least S1.320.000 below those in
effect during 1871.
Interested parties have 20 days
within which TO state their posi-
tons and FEC at end Of that
period may adopt its tentative re-
port as final or make such modifi-
cations as are then adJudged
necessary.
The proposed reductions would
be made in rates for messages
between United States on the one
hand and the countries Of South
America, Central America and
West Indies on the other.

according to an analysis made by
SEC.
The survey showed that indi-
viduals' liquid savings showed only
a small decrease from the high
point recorded for the fourth
quarter Of 1912. indicating only Il
small decrease in income after
taxes. Liquid savings for the first
quarter Of 1913 are estimated at
50 100000, 900, which compares
with revised figure of Sl0.500,-
100000 for the record fourth qua
ter of 1912.
In connection with the subStan-
tial addition TO individuals deposits
and cash. the commission notes
that although not included in the
analysis. corporations other than
banks added 50. 100000 10 their
cash and deposits IN the first quar-
ter of 1913 by far the largest in
crease on record.
The commission study shows
that liquid saving by individuals

VlSed amounted to S2q. 500 600 900,
against S10.50o. 100000 in 1911 and

State Accident
Figures Show
Some Queer Quirks
BY SILER FREEMAN

The state police have some
interesting data on traffic acci-
dents in Michigan. Last year
more than 10O,l25 were re-
ported, which resulted in 1913
fatalities, 28,694 injuries and
7S,027 property damage crashes.
This was a drop of 81 per cent
in deaths, 1873 per cent in in
juries and 24.o per cent in prop
erty damage.
But an analysis shows that
the reductions were larger on
rural trunklines than in urban
areas. This was to be expected,
traffic dropping more in the out
lying sections while increasing
in communities where war &C.
tivities were concentrated.
The analysis also showed that
non-pedestrian accidents were
reduced more than pedestrian
accidents. The explanation is
that more persons are walking
these days than ever before and
that some who are now walking
are unfamiliar with pedestrian
hazards.
The state police also reported
an increase in the number of
accidents after dark. More fatal
accidents occurred between 2
and 3 a. m. than any hour of
the day. despite the lack OF
traffic at these hours.
