BCrtCS hest bet among modern
plsyvrtghts certainly seems TO be
Lillian Hellman for The lady Las
gwen fcr ,vo Of her most intelli-
gent roles
After La Davis saw The Little
Foxes She literally lost sleep un-
I'D she WAS sure she was going 10
do the Tauu.ah Bankhead role on
the schccu
What caused her added anxiety
Was tina, Warner Brothers, TO
Whom She is under contract
didn't own the film rights Sam
Gol5Wln had bought \ and while
hc always spoke nicely OF the
FrorcS Warner. he hadn't the
slightest intention Of turning over
NttvS fteft-uars theatrical Jack
pot 10 them
He was. however willing for
The exchange Of certain monies. to
let them turn over Miss Davis 10
him. She didn't turn. she whlrled
over 30 the GoldWyn Studio and
her success rs universally known.
In fact so wide was the acclaim
that Miss Davis made a mental
note to watch Miss Hellman'S
typewriter and catch every one Of
The golden words which might be
henCeforthCOminC.

ON THE WATCH

Sure enough, opening night Of
the play Watch on the Rhine
found Miss Davis in New York
conducting her watch on Miss
Hellman, and as soon as the cur
tain fell she was on the long dis
lance phone calling Jack Warner
and saying, Daddy. buy me that. -
Warmers did purchase tn Q
screen rights Immediately. but
they agreed not 10 film II until
after The run Of the play. which
turned out 10 be a f9otlight mara
thon, lasting over three years.
Then, too, the studio was anX-
ious 10 get as many of the origi-
nal company as possible. Reflect
ting how well THE Little Foxes"
bad Jared with almost the entire
Broadway cast, Warmers waited
10 get Paul LukaS, Lucille Wat
son and George Colours, at least,
for the film.

SHUNILIN, TOO

They even went further this
time. Herman Shumln, the pro-
Queer director, who presented
Miss Hellman's first play. The
Children's Hour" and who has
been her theatrical mentor ever
since. served the same purpose
for Watch on the Rhine"
So they got Herman Shumlin
out 10 the coast 10 megaphone
the movie, an assignment which
he has done splendidly. Miss He'll
man went along. too. and did
extra scenes for the film, so
everybody should be happy.
Happy. or not, the result Of all
this collaboration comes to the
Michigan screen Friday with
Bette Davis, the star, surrounded
by the New York cast and a few
Hollywood additions like Donald
Woods instead Of John Lodge and
Henry Daniel, Beulah Bondi
Janis Wilson, Eric Roberts and
Clarence Muse.

RED RESURCENCE:
Regair,s Lost Ground

Prophetic of Rostov's fall had
been the Russians capture of Novo-
cherkassk, for in wars past and
present any army that took the gate
way town Of Novocherkassk had al
ways succeeded in taking Rostov.
How far the Nazis' fortunes had
receded since, their peak at Stain
grad last autumn might be seen in
the spectacular gains in territory re-
corded by the Russians. From Orel
on the north to Voroshilovgrad and
Rostov on the south, the Reds had
already regained most of the terri
tory they had lost in the German
offensive last spring and summer.
Nor did the Red tide show signs of
ebbing. Ahead lay the rich granary
of the Ukraine which Hitler had
hoped to hold. To the south lay the
remains of the Nazis' Caucasus
army trapped and facing possible
dismemberment.
The speed of the Russian penetra-
ton westward caused some military
observers to believe that not only
the Caucasus, but the Nazi-held Cri-
mea as well might be isolated.
One of the surprising phenomena
Of the Russian offensive was its
frightening effect on Axis military
morale. From victorious invading
host, the Nazis and their satellite
allies had been reduced in many
areas to chapfallen detachments
glad to surrender.

TUNISIA:
Ready for Zero Hour

Only a continuance of the tradi-
tional African rainy season and the
necessity of waiting until stores of
supplies were sufficient, had pre-
vented the long-awaited Allied Of
fensive for final control of Tunisia.
Signs and portents had pointed un-
mistakably toward an early show
down. The elevation of Dwight D..
Eisenhower to the full rank of gen.
eral and his appointment as su-
preme commander in Africa had in
dicated Capitalization of command
preparatory to decisive action. At
the same time Secretary of War
Stimson had predicted the immi-
nence of full-scale fighting in Tu-
nisia and had warned the American
people to prepare for heavy casual
ties.
Axis forces had been completely
cleared out of Tripolitania, and the
British Eighth army after short
rest had resumed movement by
storming into southern Tunisia along
the coastal road over which Mar
shall Rommers retreating army had
passed. When Rommel turned at
last like an animal to fight back,
Montgomery's men were ready for
him. And although the Nazi COM
mander threw in tanks, infantry and
artillery, the British pounded his po-
SitionS mercileSsly.

FARM PRICES:
Parity Battle Brisk

Even as the administration threw
down its battle gage against further
advances in farm prices, the senate
agriculture committee laid the
ground for such price increases by
voting to report a measure spon-
sored by Senator Bankhead of Ala
bama designed to revise the parity
formula upward.
The administrators position was
set forth in the speech of Economic
Sterilization Director James F.
Byrnes. Declaring that a change in
the farm parity formula would not
be IN the farmers interest" Mr..
Byrnes indicated that the admins
tration would fight to preserve its
present policies on farm and food
prices and production. Recognizing
that farmers need returns greater
than parity to meet extra expenses
involved in stepping up production
of certain crops, the OES chief in
dicated that the government would
make up that extra expense.

PORT ALEGRE: Smashing of a
Nazi-inspired conspiracy centering
around Cruz Alta, an interior city of
Brazil and involving army officers,
enlisted men, civilians and church

plot included 'vast conspiratorial
organization which penetrated the
army, urging soldiers to desert and
shoot down Brazilians in case of an
Axis invasion" Military personnel
were accused of stealing arms and
munitions from government depots.
Ringleaders of the plot had been un-

rN11ai{aqa,
ARMY VS.. NAVY

Washington, d. C,

The Selective Service system isn't
advertising it, but there has been
some fierce rowing behind the
scenes over the induction standards
OF the army and navy.
Though the army has iberalized
its physical and mental require
ments to increase the number Of
draft ehgibles and likewise keep the
induction of married men at a mini
mum, the navy still clings to the
higher standards in effect while it
was taking only enlisted men.
Virtually all physical require
ments are higher for the navy, but
the biggest difference is in the men
tality tests for the two services.
Navy induction doctors won't pass
man unless he has a fair 10,
whereas army doctors are required
to approve lower standards.
Result is that thousands of induc-
tees who express preference for the
navy are turned down and find them
selves in an army uniform instead.
The fact that the army has to take
these navy "castoffs" is bitter medi-
cine to war department highups; and
Brig. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, selec-
tive service director, made strong
protest about it behind closed doors
recently to the War Manpower COM
missions management-labor policy
committee.
The standards for both services
should be uniform, Hershey de-
clared, adding that if the navy's
standards were brought down to con-
form with those of the army, it
would help Offset the need of induct-
ing married men, especially those
with children.
The navy has been turning down a
large number of single men for
physical or mental reasons, Hershey
pointed out.
''How has the difference in stand
ards affected the army?" the draft
director was asked.
''It's affected us plenty" explod-
ed Hershey. "The navy selects
whom it wants and the army gets
all the lower element"
The committee agreed with Her.
shey, promised to recommend to
VINO Boss Paul McNutt that he en-
deavor to have the navy's standards
lowered.

U-BOAT REPORT:
Better Than E1pected

Out of the ''hush-hush" and into
the limelight came the subject of
German submarines-a subject that
has painfully worried many an Al
lied leader. Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill turned the light on
the U-boats and his examination was
optimistic: eve are more than hold
ing our own"
Outranking in interest his predic-
ton Of an Allied invasion of Europe
within nine months and his report
that 100000 British and American
troops are now in Africa, was his
survey of the submarine situation
in a report to the parliament.
In the last six months, he pointed
out, Anglo-American and Canadian
shipbuilding exceeded all losses Of
the United Nations by over 1850, 900
tons. The rate of Allied destruction
of U-boats has also improved.

DEFERRED DRAFTEES
Face Early Summons

AS plans moved forward swiftly
for enlarging the size of Uncle
Sans fighting forces, selective serv.
ice made public estimates that
100000 single men Of draft age
are now deferred on occupational
grounds. This number would be suf-
ficient to fill more than one-fourth
of the requirements Of the armed
services for the remainder of the
year if they are physically fit.
That many of these men would
soon land in the army or navy
was indicated by instructions to 10
cal boards to review deferments
within six months after granting
them and eliminate unnecessary
ones so that their industrial places
could be taken by women or other
men.
Of the draft age deferees, 370, 600
are in class IA which covers oc-
cupants of essential civilian jobs;
$4,000 are in class 2-B covering
those holding essential industrial
jobs; and 10000 are in class &c,
necessary men in agricultural pur-
suits.

LOS ANGELES: Laying aside his
movie hero roles for the more haz-
ardous fortunes of war, Robert Tay-

as lieutenant, junior grade. Ex-
perienced as private pilot, Taylor
has been assigned to a training
course at Corpus Christi, Texas, as
a ferry pilot or instructor. He took
the oath under his legal name, Span
gler Arlington Brugh.
NEW YORK: The year 1912 was
the bloodiest in the history of man.
kind, according to statisticians of
the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company, who estimate that 2,000,-
900 fighting men died on world bat
tlefelds last year. Between 100000
and 10000 Germans fell, mostly on
the Russian front; Red mortalities
were reckoned at between 100000
and 100000. American known dead
numbered 6,100, but sizeable por-
ton of the 10000 missing were as
sumed dead. The Japs lost between
10000 and 0,000 men in battles in
the South Pacific.
