HOLLYWOOD
BY ERSKINE JOHNSON

Whether Hollywood should flood
the nations theater screens with
war pictures is question over
which moviemakers and movie
goers will argue these days at the
drop of ticket stub But certain
ly there should be no arguments
over the way Hollywood is handling
the war. Celluloid treatment of
war propaganda is admirable and
restrained compared with the
brutal bludgeoning of 1918.
One of my fondest recollections
Of World War I motion pictures is
movie called. I believe, Behind
the Door," in which Hobart Bos-
worth, as the skipper of an Ameri-
can merchant vessel, was stopped
i'll mid-ocean by U-boat COM
manded by Wallace Beery.
Bosworth and his wife, Jane
Novak, are taken aboard the sub
where the vile Beery, in the lam
guage of the subtitle, "Wreaks His
WEI Upon Poor Jane" He then
tosses her over to the crew, after
which she is pushed into tor
pedo tube and fired into the ocean
where, we always hoped, there were
no more wills to be wreaked.
All, but there was retribution!
Bosworth finally got the upper
hand on Beery and skinned him
alive-literally.
Compare this to such films as "Air
Force" THE Moon Is Down"
Wake Island" This Land Is
Mine" or any current war pictures
and you have to give credit to
Hollywood for growing up. Or take
the soon-to- be filmed THE Sui
livans," story of five brothers who
lost their lives with the Navy in
the South Pacific Director Lloyd
Bacon will high-light the things we
are fighting for, not the fighting.
The picture will bring out the
humor and drama in the home life
OF an American family between
1920 and Pearl Harbor.
War pictures of 1918 ran riot with
rape, pillage and brutalities. Public
opinion was whipped up with pic
lures like Behind the Door" and
others with titles that spoke for
themselves: ITO Hell With the
Kaiser" 1.-THE Prussian Cur" THE
Kaiser, Beast of Berlin" and THE
Evil Eye"
In one picture, Erich Won Stro-
helm, as a brutal German officer,
was making love to a young mother
when her crying baby in the next
room annoyed him. Leering at the
audience, Erich picked up the baby
and tossed the kid out a Six-story
window 1t was very effective in
keeping alive the flames Of hate,
Hollywood figured, though bit
rough on baby.

vided note of levity in 1918 was

with the fuel rationing problem
have created unnecessary confusion
While Ickes was telling delegates to
the governors conference at Colum-
bus, Ohio, that fuel restrictions in
the east would continue in force
for the duration, Nelson told a con-
gseSsional committee that "relief
was in sight.
A WPB spokesman subsequently
explained that Nelson did not mean
that more supplies would be avail
able for motorists and home own
ers, but was promising relief from
confusion.
When agitation developed in the
cast to extend the pleasure driv-
ing ban to motorists of the mid
west on share -and-share a like"
basis, Ickes said the proposal was
unsound. He said there were not
enough tank cars to bring supplies
from the midwest in such quanti-
ties as to justify the action. Off
cialS also contended that transpor-
tation facilities were inadequate to
handle additional tank cars at that
time.
