One of the least conceited big
timers in Hollywood is Bob Hope,
who, like Clark Gable, still insists
that he is pretty much of a ham
and lucky to be where he is today.
Bing Crosby was kidding Hope the
other day about what a big shot he
has become. Bob grinned and re-
marked that whenever he feels a
notion coming on that he was any
good he goes to the Paramount test
room and asks to be shown a special
reel. 1t is Hopes first screen test,
made when he tried out for "The
First Broadcast" and was turned
down.

caught with q patriotic ferver, gets
mixed up in q bond rally and ends
up by spending her two weeks va

girl.

Speaking of Maisie and charac-

Fate Changes
The Script
For Morgan
BY HAROLD HEFFERNAN.
HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD.
=, Probably the most fantastic ac-
cident ever to pose a production
problem for a Hollywood studio had
Dennis Morgan as its victim
Dennis was sprawled on the floor
of his home reading the funny
papers to his two youngsters Sun
day when he leaped to his feet to
answer a telephone call and in
famed an old knee injury dating
back to his football days at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. Morgan was
working on a picture at Warner
Bros, titled THE Very Thought of
YOU" in which he was supposed to
come home from the war suffering
from a head wound. Inasmuch as
the knee injury forced him to use a
cane, the script was merely changed
to provide for a leg instead of a
head wound, so no time was lost on
the Aim.
During their many years In
burlesque and in movie comedies,
Lou Costello of the famous Abbott
and Costello team has been the fall
guy who has taken all the physical
raps in their rough antics.
Now the worm has turned because
Costello, due to his long siege with
rheumatic fever, has been warned
by doctors that he must take it
easy. Accordingly, in their new
comedy, Lost in a Harem," it is
Abbott, the traditional feeder" of
the team, who gets all the bumps.
In a scene the other day, Abbott
was practically knocked out by the
crash of q break-away table on his
head. Get well, will you," urged
Abbott, as his partner stood by con-
solingly, Il can't stand much more

men, American, British and Rus
sian, of how to turn great armies

the most difficult problems of the

he had to make a decision. Oh
viously, Congress and only Con
gress, has the Constitutional pow
er to determine what quota o.
force it will make available, anc
what discretion it will give oul
representative to use that force. .
No one, 1 think, on either side o.
the party line provided he has
understood what the Dumbartor
Oaks conference settled and wfa1
it left for future settlement, coulo
now be more precise. There is
every reason to think that the
Governors statement is the work
of advisers who have been com.
pletely informed about Dumbarton
Oaks and are entirely sympathe-
tic. To be more precise would in
volve the examination of complex
technical problems which had
much better be left until after
election.
Only under one circumstance
could the sincerity of this Re2ub-
lican commitment be questioned.
That would be if Republicans
argued that they will fulfill it only
if Mr.. Dewey is elected, that they
will renege if Mr.. Roosevelt is
elected.
We shall be indulging in serious
self-deception If we assume that
agreement on Dumbarton Oaks
solves the real problems Of max
ing a good peace. Before the Dunn
barton Oaks proposals can become
more than a project on paper the
war in Europe and in the Pacific
has to be conducted not only vic
torlously by arms but successfully
by diplomacy. For nothing could
be further from the truth than
the notion that the President who
takes office in January will be a
peace President. He will be war
President not only when he is in
but for a long time
thereafter.
It is possible, to be sure, that
fighting in the German
war may have ended, or be near
its end. But there is not now the
faintest probability that the end
Of the japanese war will be in
sight, even supposing that General
MacArthur's best expectations in
he Philippines are fulfilled. For
he Philippines are to Japan about
What North Africa was to Ger
nany-a forward position that had
20 be taken before the Allies could
even prepare to come to grips with
he main forces Of the enemy.
The President who is in office
after January, 1915, will not be
able to treat the war as an enter
prise which, so far as he is con-
cerned, will go forward automatic
cally under the guidance Of Gen
eral Marshall and Admiral King,
while he devotes himself to re-
forming the New Deal reforms.
The next Presidents paramount
concern will be the problem of
how to conclude the German war
and how to reorganize and re-
orient not only the armed forces

ROANOKE RAPIDS. Oct. 2s.-
RAWilliam B. Umstead OF Dur
ham. chairman of the State Demo-
cratic Executive committee, told q
Halifax county rally here today that
Sin the first eight years OF peace
in the Roosevelt administration,
the government did more to aid
the average man than was done
by all republican administrations
since the Civil war;"
Umstead, former congressman,
said the New Deal had done more
"to raise the living scale and to
provide security for the average
American-the common man-than
was ever accomplished before"
Gov. Dewey, the republican nomi-
nee, "has but one complaint
against the present administration
he would like for the republic
cans to administer the great hui
manitarian and social gains en-
ployed by the New Deal to lift
the nation out of the great de-
preston under Hoover" Umstead
said.
Turning to state affairs, Umstead
said that good government in
North Carolina is synonymous with
the term democratic party" The
latter, he said, ''has given t h e
state sound, efficient, sane and pro-
gressive government for A years."

POLISH OFFICIALS
FACE SHOWDOWN

LONDON, Oct. 28.-tR-Poland'
trouble-saddled, exiled govern
ment weighed today an apparent
last-chance offer to settle its dill
ferences with Soviet Russia for
tine sacrifice of a huge section
of its pre-war territory.
There appeared no other alter
native. For Prime Minister
Churchill, bent on removing the
dynamite-laden Polish-Soviet dis
pute from the Allied agenda, had
outlined in terms Of growing i'm
patience Britain's backing for a
Russian west front border alotg
what is known as the Curzon line.
Poland's peasant-porn Premier
Stanislaw Mikolajczyk, in a series
of detailed reports on his second
mission to Moscow, has laid be-
fore his cabinet the take-it-or-
leave-it price of accord vita Rus
STA and the rival Polish Commit
tee of National Liberation.
There mas been no indication
which way it will swing. In the
past, it's policy has been one Of
delaying a decision-a policy born
of optimism and nurtured by the
hope it could strike a better bar
gain with British-American sup
port at the peace table. :.
But Churchill, in his address
before Commons Friday, for the
first time gave a clear Indication
that, if Poland turns down Rus
sia's proposal, Britain would give
Mikolajczyk the nod to form, a
new government on Polish soil.
81 hope he said, Chat Mr..
Mikolajczyk will soon return to
Moscow as. it. will be a. great
to al THE sincere
of Poland if a good ar
cannot be made which
will enable him to form a Polish
government On Polish soil..'' !,
Unlike several members Of his
cabinet, Mikolajczyk is acceptable
personally to both Moscow and the
Lublin committee. His reluctance
against striking an enforced bar
gain has conferred in part upon
his belief that it might be repudi-
ated by the Poles after the war,
