are busy checking, sorting and pack
ing pocket editions of all the best

thrilling thrillers and crossword

the American Red Cross. Already
5000 copies have gone, 10000 more

The books come directly to Dor
chester House from the printers and
are carefully sorted by the volun-
teers so that not more than two
copies out of every 100 books are
the same, and they are packed in
cartons lined with waterproof paper

The number of parties this week
will fall short of expectations and
predictions, for many of the dele
gates to the United Nations Con-
ference in San Francisco were de-
tanned there so long that they went
direct to New York to embark or
take off for their homeland. How
ever, few of them stopped in
Washington and these distin-

them accompanied by their wives

formally at several parties. The
Foreign Minister of Uruguay, DR..
Jose Serrato, who has been here
for a day or so, dined very infor-
mally with the Ambassador, and no
festivities were planned in his honor

his wife. The distinguished official
received the word on his arrival in

i WASHINGTON = Jack Dunn got his permanent liberty pass the end of March By the end of April he found he wasn't getting any young er-and there was that shoe store he was going to open. Jack used to be shoe salesman.
 He figured he had enough cash to get started and keep going till the chips began to fly. The chips flew but the wrong way For a while he thought he'd be able to make both ends meet, but somebody nov ed the ends. His capital dwindled.
 Jack didn't want to quit. Once he secured his beachhead, he knew he could make a go of it. If he could only be sure of a definite, how ever limited, income he could make the necessary deals with his whole saler Then it would be compara- lively smooth sailing.
 Somebody told Jack about the readjustment allowance section in the GI Bill of Rights-sometimes called unemployment pay. That's no good for me" thought Jack. I'm not unemployed"
 But, willing to grasp at straws, and not knowing just how this so-called allowance worked, Jack got in touch with the veterans representative at a United States Employment Service Office
 Jack" said the Veterans Rep resentative, You're a veteran. You are in business for yourself. Accord ing to the book, you're considered 'self-employed for profit and as such you're entitled to a guarantee of 100 bucks net profit per month If you don't make that much in your shoe business, Uncle Sam will give you the difference"
 So Jack filled out finance form 1887. He figured his net earnings for the previous month were just 20 bucks. Net means his total in- IoiilC lOiil tiiC oilOC oOolC iliiltto HIS total expenses, excluding personal and family items.
 You don't have to swallow this if you don't want to, but the govern ment paid him $80-the difference between a 100 bucks and his pro- fit of 20 bucks. That 30 dollars just about spelled the difference tc Jack between failure and success Besides that, he was assured of a hundred dollar profit for the next , month-in fact, for several other f months.
 Ten and four tentns months is the < longest time any eX-GI can draw this readjustment allowance, those months don't have to be consecutive But in that many months-well Jack was pretty sure he'd be stand ing on his own feet by then. i There's a reason for the limita- tion of 10.4 months, but there's nc reason for an attempt to explain it Ten and four tenth months is tor and no argument.

SHOW THAT'SG0T THAT "G0" COMES
 A5CAp|T0L'S BILL

It's proverbial that three's a crowd-and around this basis revol- yes the gay action of Music in Manhattan RKO Radios newest tune-film, opening at the Capitol tonight.
 Featuring Anne Shirley, Dennis Day and Phillip Terry, the picture centers on the plight of an en- gagged girl who suddenly finds she has self-appointed husband on her hands and can't seem to get rid of him. The situation comes about when the girl, in a great hurry to get to Washington, assumes an other name to get a plane reserva- tion and is mistaken for the secret bride of a war hero. The public ity that ensues enrages the officer who thinks he has been delibertly victimized, and he goes to New York to get even.
 When the girl discovers the hero has moved into her apartment, an- nouncing that he's her husband things really begin to happen. Her fiance naturally objects to the set up and matters become even worse when the heros mother comes to town to stay with the newlyweds for a visit.
 But riotous climax, is said to be one of the funniest offerings of the year. Five sparkling song numbers and the fine supporting work of Ray mond Walburn, Patti Brill and Jane Darwell add to the entertainment qualities of the film, with lifting mu- sic supplied by Charlie Barnet and his orchestra and Nila Menende2 and his Rhumba Band.
