Paramount Is celebrating it's 33rd anniversary. They first start ed grinding at celluloid for the nickelodeon trade in Astoria, Long Island, in 1912. Tn those days they didn't worry about Q plot and 1t would have been a waste of dough to hire a writer because that would have meant they would have had to go out and hire someone else who could read.
 Their lease finally came due in Astoria and they moved to Holly wood and started photographing Wallace Reid jumping out of his Stutz Bearcat and grabbing Theda Bara. Theda was a sort of slow motion Lana Turner. They'd wrap her in q curtain, shove Q sofa under her and when the hero would come in, they could shoot three reels of panting.
 That was before the Hays office and they used to have lots of the Rudolph Valentino, or stick with-it-kid," type of kisses. Each kiss would last through two bags of popcorn. And these involved more back -bending( rib-crushing, and strangleholds than a semi wind-up on Q second-rate wres- ting card. The heroines used to get romance and Q spinal adjust ment at the same time. or course, this sort of pretSel tech- nique is passed and out-of-date now. (My leading ladies keep

United States Urged To Assist Lithuania

 pression of Demoerotie IdeoIs

AsiatieS. Tie calm peace-loving people of the Baltic States whose only fault in this conflict was the geographic situation of their country. These people are en- tirely left to the mercy of Q ruth less dictator, Josef Stain.
 We the descendantS of the Bal- tic States people are c weak inin- ority, we want the American peo. pie to know that we arc human and are enviouS of the Japs who are patrolled and are to be tried by the civilized, peace-loVing white man.
 To demand freedom from tyranny iS job for humanity, therefore 1t iS not 6 job for only the Lithuanian or the people of the Baltic States, is c job for America and her Allies, be stand for the tradition of our country, honesty and no aggressionl
 Lithuania performed Q signal service to the church, as well as to Europe ct large, when. under VltuateS the Great, in 1899 1t wlth.heid the bulwark against the invasion of the TartarS into Europe, which, had 1t succeeded, would have seriously arrested western civilization. This defense of the outpost of Europe wai blessed by Pope BonIface TX who declared t c holy war At this period of the worlds history Lithuania stood as an impossible barrier holding back any threat ened ifvaSions by the Tartars or the ASiaticS into Europe through Ter doors. This historical event has appropriately been evaiuated by true historians and in recent times (1o30 we read in the jour. nal "JuS Pontificum' that for this deed alone the Lithuanian nation and it's leader Vytautas has earned the undying gratitude Of oil ages.
 The promise with assurance was given by the late U. 6. President Franklin Deiano Roosevelt, to Lithuanian representatives that "LithuaTlia iS not c small Country and her freedom Is not lost. The freedom Of Lit:luaria is only tern- poraFily suspended"
 We, Lithuanian Americans have plenty of friends among OUT Am. erican people, our last drive for wearing apparel proved this friendship for our cause, for which we are overwhelmingly grateful; therefore 1t Is lip to us to stand and demand that the supreme sacrifices of our boys would not be given in appcase- ment Of Josef Stain, who was made strong by our uncondition. al lend lease. It is lip to the Allies to save the peace-lovirg white man of the Baltic States.
