that industries such as shipbuild-

He felt that those industries
which are now manufacturing war
products but which would turn TO
replenishing peace time needs,
might take on a million workers.

HOOVER IN
COMMENT
WAR PLANS
Says We Shouldn't Try 10
Do Too Much loo
Speedily

WASHINGTON. Feb. 9-Former
President Herbert Hoover declared
that the size of the Army must be
modified, at least for the immediate
period of 1943."
The armed forces, he said, should
supply some of the million addi-
tional workers which he stated the
nation needs for farming, metal
and oil industries.
Hoover envisioned there will be
at least three more years of war,
but declared, time runs in our ia
vor. We don't need to try to do ev-
erything all at once. A knockout
blow can be delivered more certain
ly at Germany in 1914 than in 1913
ut is serious consideration that
we might break our people on the
home front and start an internal
degeneration such as now Is the
fate of Germany.
I'VE shouldn't imperil ourselves
by doing too much too fast he
said
Hoover added that Japan cannot
grow stronger. She is losing more
tonnage and planes, he said, than
she can construct

New BABY STAR
IS INTRODUCED,

Butch Minds the Baby" Is
Coming to Capitol
Wednesday

Just as Little Miss Marker"
brought Shirley Temple into prom
inence, so, too, will another Damon
Runyon screen production, Butch
Minds the Baby" bring another
child discovery to the fore.
In Little Miss Marker" Runyon
created situation where Shirley
Temple, then practically unknown,
was left as security to make good
a wager of two dollars in a horse
race. The horse lost, and the father
never came back to claim Shirley,
who was adopted by a bookmaker
and his tough Broadway friends.
In Butch Minds the Baby
coming to the Capitol Wednesday,
Damon Runyan brings a l3-
months-old baby into the life of
a hardened professional safe crack
er. enacted by Brod Crawford. The
association of Butch and his
hard boiled mob of friends with
the baby results in dramatic situ-
ations similar to those which made
Little Miss Marker" SO successful.
The baby in the picture is 13-
months-old Harold Michael Bar
nitz, who is hailed by Director AL
bert S. Rogell as "a baby in a mil
lien" Featured in the Universal
picture are Virginia Bruce, Craw-
ford, Dick Foran, Porter Hall and
Shdmp Howard.
