Affects Morale

THAT these incidents and the re-
lated fear felt by other Negro SOL
diers is definitely affecting their
morale and their effectiveness as
soldiers is by now a foregone con-
clusion. The situation is critical
and during the past two and one
half years has passed beyond the
investigating stage.
1--WE submit that the War Depart
ment owes a duty to men in the
armed forces to protect them from
abuse and violence when it sends
them into camps and strange sur
roundings. An attack on a soldier
is an attack on the United States,
whether perpetrated by a foreign
or domestic enemy"

Gable Gets Fleming to Direct

Is getting lucky break. When first
released, about two months ago. it
was not too uproariously welcomed,
but when news of the attempt on
Hitlers life and the apparent
crack-up of his whole gang was
flashed over the wires, the picture
began to double its crosses every
where. Which proves that a movie
with any semblance of the docu-
mentary about 1t must hit while the
public's mind is on the subject mat
ter of the film.
No other movie, of course. could
ever hope to duplicate "CasAblanca"
in squeezing the publicS pulse at
just the proper moment. Warmers
managed a release of that one Just
as American troops were pulling
their surprise invasion of North AZ
rica, with Casablanca bounding all
over the headlines.
The war is moving much too fast
for the production bosses to guess
what will be hot and what will be
stale six months ahead-and no
good lecture can be written, filmed.

Warmers and MGM took that into
consideration in filming the two
stories. 1t is hoped that the Skef-
fington epic will have completed its
runs by the time the Parkington
lady starts her rounds in October.
And what a double billing the
names would make on any theater

When the showdown came over
his first return picture at MGM,
Clark Gable stuck fast for his old
| friend. Victor Fleming, as director.
Fleming and Gable have been pals
for many years. Not only does
Gable like to ride alongside Flem-
ing Oh the latter's motorcycle but
he thinks he's the very best direc-
tor in Hollywood.
Every producer on the lot wanted
Gable for his first picture and the
choice went to Sam Zimbalist, only
because Sam has Fleming in his
directing stable. The picture will
be Strange Adventure" adapted
from the novel, "The Amounted" by
Clyde Brion Davis. Gables role is
semi-religious character Produc-
ton cannot start until about Sep
tember 20, which means that the
fans cannot expect a new Gable pic
ture much before the spring Of
1945.
Story behind Cables lasting
friendship with Fleming dates back
to their association as actor and
director on "Test Pilot" Gable still
considers that co-starring effort
with Spencer Tracy as his best pic
ture. Since that time Gable and
Fleming, close-mouthed, almost
forbidding looking six-footer, have
been close friends. They have
hunted and flshed together. ard
Fleming was the first of Gables pals
IN rp-1uA In that All
ness to comfort him ON the night
Carole Lombard met her tragic end.
It's no secret that Gable and
Fleming saved Gone with the
Wind" When Selznick borrowed
Gable from MGM for the Rhett
Butler role, Clark was insistent that
Fleming take over the directing job.
Selznick had already signed George
Cukor and stuck to his guns. Gable
went to work but daily grew more
unhappy with his assignment. FL
nally Selznick called halt after
six weeks shooting and replaced
Cukor with Fleming. The result
made motion picture history.

One MILLONTH
SOCIAL
SECURITY BENEFIT

Payment on the one-millionth bene-
fit now in force under the Old-Age and
Survivors Insurance provisions Of the
Social Security Act began August 8
when the widow and children of John
Robert Thompson, union man who had
been working in a war plant in Cleve-
land, Ohio, received their first monthly
checks which amounted to S58.49. Mr.
Thompson, who died in June, was re-

To mark this occasion in the history
of the Social Security Act, Mrs. Ellen
S. Woodward, one of the three mem
bers of the Social Security Board, pre-
sented the checks TO the Thompson

equal amounts to each of the children
