For Vice Presidency
By the Associated prass


81. JOSEPH, Mo, April 29.-Sen-
ator Truman, Democrat, of Missouri,
who has been mentioned as a Demo-
cratic vice presidential candidate.
tonight proposed Speaker Rayburn,
democrat, Of Texas as a running
mate for President Roosevelt.
introducing Mr.. Rayburn, who was
principal speaker before a State
woe political rally tonight, Senator
Truman said:
Texas seems to be the State
Wnlch produces speakers of the
house and vice presidents. Mr.. Gar
ner started the Democratic sweep
IN 1892 as speaker of the house and
vice president.
NOW we have another Texan,
sam Rayburn, who no doubt will
WIND up as his successor"
Confident in Roosevelt.
Mr.. Rayburn, who followed Rob-
ert z. Hannegan, national chairman,
and Senator Clark, Democrat, of
Missouri on the speakers stand, de-
clared that unless the President
says under no circumstances will he
be candidate again, he will be re-
nominated and elected, as well as a
Democratic Senate and House"
Chairman Hannegan also pre-
dlcted that Mr.. Roosevelt would be
reelected If he runs and added Il
hope he will be a candidate"
Urging the necessity for organi-
zation in the coming election, Mr..
Hannegan said, This is the most
important and critical campaign in
history. Everywhere I have been
in II States-people tell me they
want to keep the present admins
tration in office. If the President
runs, he will be elected without a
doubt"

Mr.. Hannegan said the Republi-
can opposition was bringing out
and unpacking the same old COL
lection OF alarms and fire whistles
they have used for a dozen years
past"
The "only new note" he said,
comes from a blatant chorus to
confuse the issue of foreign policies. p"
Mr.. Hannegan said the issue before
the people was will I be able to
earn living when this war is won?"
and whether it was to "go back to
the let 'em sell apples kind of free
enterprise"
Mr.. Hannegan mentioned only one
Republican candidate - Gov. John |

Bricker's statement "in straight, |

Doctors Draft Plan
To Protect Health
Of This Hemisphere
BY HAROLD b. ROGERS.

Faced by the double threat of
wartime and postwar spread of dis
ease because of the tremendous in
crease in travel, the fifth Pan
American conference of National
Directors of Health last night drew
up a broad gauge program to pro-
tect the health of this hemisphere
by applying the most up-to-date
methods of science and medicine.
The doctors closed weeks con-
ference at the Pan-American Union
by adopting many resolutions, de-
signed to protect air travellers, i'm
prove quarantine practices, increase
reports of contagious diseases, and
bring up to date the now anti
quated Pan-American sanitary code
of 1924.

STRAND

Keyed to present-day headlines, ~The Adventures of Tartu," which eBens Friday at the Strand theater' S a stirring drama of intrigue coupled with romance that al- most defeats its purpose. Robert Donat is the star in Metro Goldwyn- Mayer's exciting adventure nlm' and Valerie Hobson enacts the lead ing feminine role. Others who stand out include Clynis Johns and wal ter Rilla.
 In the star role, Robert Donat impersonates four different foreign characters. As a British agent, ne is ordered to blow up the Skoda works in Czechoslovakia, where the Nazis are turning out barrels or poison gas to be used against the Allies. He also is given the respon- sibility of bringing back the Iormuia, and needless to say he accompnsnes both tasks brilliantly.
 "The Adventures of Tartu H stark drama. It has romance ana thrills and marks the first appear ance on the screen of Robert Donta in more than a year. Glynis Johns was last seen in "The Invaders, " and Valerie Hobson is not a new conner, having appeared in "U-Boat 29," Atlantic Ferry" and several other British-made films. Martin Miller contributes fine dramatic performance as leader of the Czech underground.
 Others in the cast include Phyllis Morris, Anthony Eustral, Percy Walsh, David Ward, Frederic Rich- ter. John Penrose, Hubert Leslie, Mabel Terry Lewis and Miki Iveria.
 On the same program is Hands Across the Border" with Roy Rogers, King of the Cowboys and Ruth Terry, singing star.
 Ending its engagement tomorrow night at the Strand is Song ot Russia" starring Robert Taylor and Susan Peters. On the same program is Casanova in Burlesque."

M The Local TheaterS
STATE

Passage to MarSeille," Warner Bros. new thrill film, opened its en- gagement at Warmers State theater today with Humphrey Bogart in the starring lead.
 The film is acclaimed Bogart's greatest picture to date and is the story of a small group of men who risked their lives to join the French in their fight against the ruthless Nazis.
 Starring Bogart as Matrac, an anti-NaN who has been hanished to Devils Island on trumped-up charges, the icture tells of his dar- ing escape from the island with four other convictS and the peril they encounter in their attempt to get back to France.
 When they are picked up, more dead than alive, in midocean by a smaller freighter bound for Marseille they utter silent thanks that their trials have ended-but in fact they have just begun. Halfway to Mar seille word comes that France has capitulated, This provokes crisis on board parallel to the bigger one in Paris when issues were raised be- tween collaborationists and anti Nazs. Bogart and his four fellow convicts settle the issue at last by taking over and piloting the ship straight into an English port.
 A big supporting cast includes Claude Rains, Sydney Greenstreet, Helmut Dantine, remembered for their unforgettable portrayals in "Casablanca." and Michele Morgan. Philip Dorn, George Tobias and Peter Lorre.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents She's For Me" a gay musical comedy with David Bruce and Grace Mcdonald in featured roles and including such favorites as George Dolenz and Lois Collier as romantic foursome in the new offering while Reginald Le- Borg makes his bow for the first time as a full-length picture director.
 She's For Me" ably proves that the newer ayers are forthcoming star materi.,l David Bruce demon- strtaes his ability in a gay role widely differing from his macabrc representation of "The Mad Ghoul".
 Don't forget the States early bird show which takes place tomorrow morning with doors of the theatei opening at 9:30 o'clock.

he needs is something to brace his feet against. Suppose you try a hard pillow or folded blanket, placed under the covers. Or. if he prefers something a little more sub stantial, small pasteboard carton or wooden box, padded with a pil- low or wrapped in a blanket, may be arranged under the covers and against the foot of the bed. This will make it possible for him to push himself up again when he feels the need.
 HAMMOCK" HELPS
 Another device to keep the pa- tient up where he belongs in the bed is a hammock" or swing, !" with the ends tied to the head of the bed, the side rails or springs. To make the hammock, place a pillow, diagonally, on a sheet and fold the sheet cornerwise, enclosing the pillow. Twist the ends of the sheet to hold the pillow in place, then tie the ends to the head or sides of the bed. If you can't spare sheet for this purpose, fold the pillow over a piece of soft clothes line rope, and tie the ends of the rope to the bed.
 By either method the pillow serves as a seat, on which the patient relaxes comfortably, and he is relieved of the strain and irrita- ton of having to maintain his posi- ton in the bed.

POLES

By the luck of the draw, you might say the timeliest picture of the war is ''The Purple Heart which is to open at Loew Poli 1'heater on Friday, It is highly conjectural but carefully prepared version of the Japanese trail and execution as "murdererS" of eight of the American flyers who bombed T'oyko in April of 1942. Landing as it does in the midest of the seeth- ing national resentment over these and other newly revealed Japanese outrages against prisoners of war, "The Purple Heart is almost bound to become the most talked of film of the day. The film has been made with virtually no attendant pub 1icity with cast of capables such as Dana Andrews, Farley Granger and Sam Levene. Apparently with no motive other than to recognize and salute the courage and integrity of the American fighting man. Its release right now, however, makes it inseparably a part of the whole running story of Jap atrocities and centainly rouser for the whole scale drive now in progress in the Pacific. The hit picture has action from the start to the end, mad not a dull moment in this t1ln.
 The co-hit on this big program of hits, is "Men On Her Mind' with Mary Beth Hughes is one great little comedy with a barrel of hughs, its sure to chase the blues away, so don't miss this hit pro- gram.
 For the last two days the Loew Poli has the hit program "Cry Havoc" the stirring limitation of the much talked about hit play. Margaret Sullavan whose most wei comed return to the screen in the coveted role of Smitty, the one reg istered nurse in the group of thlr- teen women who remained on Bataan in the last days. Ann Sothern and Joan BlondeN are starred with her as volunteer work CTS. Fay Bainter is cast as Dr. Marsh and Connie Gilchrist as Sadie. the cook. The other volun- teers in the cast are Marsha Hunt, Ella Raines, Heather Angel, Doro- thy Morris, Diana Lewis, Gloria Grafton, Frances Clifford and Fely Franquelli. -.
 The co-hit on this program or hits is My Best Gal" with Jane Withers in her very best role to- date.
