The survey showed that ac-
tually earnings of screen actors
whose weekly salaries ranged up
to $500 a week was only $4,000
year; and that approximately
20@o of all screen actors earn
between $4,000 and $4,000
year.
The Screen Actors Guild is
asking for a wage increase for
its members which it states, rep
resents the first increase in basic
wage rates in eight years. They
want a minimum scale for daily
players from SIS to S35 a day,
for free lance players from S1O0
to Sis week., and for stock
contract players from $50 to $50

have to see for yourself.
But the life of William Bendix
("The Thrill") is not altogether
a bed of roses, even though his
unique reverse English" ro-
nance technique does net him
luscious Joan Blondell = among
others. His multiple conquests
get him enrolled in side-split-
ting series of episodes that
would have given even the orig
inal Casanova a terrific head
ache.
In the film, Bendix is a canal
barge captain whose tenderest
memories are those of his mother
of her fabulous way with a
beef stew and of her wonderful
Iy musical laugh. Joan Blondell,
a Brooklyn waitress, has the
laugh and, to coin phrase,
Bendix is wax in the hands of
that laugh. "The Thrill" goes
into action, and Joan is his. But
up in Utica, Mary Treen's beef
stews also stir poignant memo
ries of his dear departed mother,
and Bendix is a dead duck.
He becomes engaged to Joan
in Brooklyn, and then to Mary
in Utica, and with Phil Silvers,
his pal, stepping in to help"
him out of his troubles, is trick
ed into marrying both girls; gets
the army and navy on his trail
on suspicion of being AWOL
from each; creates tw in
brother whom his mother had
never heard about; and winds up
on trial for numbering himself
in one of the most hilarious
climaxes ever filmed.

Star Solves
Clock Loss
In Own Way

Star Ruth Hussey licked the
alarm clock shortage in the most
unusual way heard yet. Rather,
she had it settled for her. When
the talented young actress first
reported for work on Bedside
Manner" laugh-studded Andrew
Stone farce which, is now show
ing at the Esquire Theater, she
asked that studio telephone
operator call her early each
morning, Reason was she had
broken the last alarm clock in
her possession.
After just two days of the
arrangement, Ruth notified the
operator that she wouldn't need
the service longer. The girl ex-
pressed surprise at Ruth's hav-
ing acquired one of the scarce
articles.
"Oh, I haven't found clock, +"
was Ruth's reply. MY FOUR
months old son Robbie is taking
care of the situation very nicely.
He wakes promptly at six every
morning, and yells like mad for
his breakfast"
In private life Miss Hussey is
the wife of Captain Bob Long
necker, of the Signal Corps.
Bedside Manner" is a United
Artists release.

Hollywood Glitter
Is Propaganda

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8 (PA)
The fabulous richness Of Hol-
lywood's glamour girls and boys
is purely mythical, according to
a statement by the Screen Actors
Guild, and their job security is
practically nil.
The great majority of screen
actors, the union points out, are
free lance players who work
from studio TO studio and from
picture to picture. Although they
may receive fairly high wages
per day or week, their annual
income is small since they usual
ly are employed only short
period of time.
The union has revealed the
startling fact that 45% of all
screen actors earn under $4,000 a
year. 1t bases its statement on
a survey recently completed by
Leo Rosten for the Carnegie and
Rockefeller Foundations.

Meanwhile American fliers hit

Thirty years ago, in Forbidden
Tibet, behind the highest noun
tains in the world, a young Eng
lishman named Edwin j. Dingle
was desperately i'll in mind and
body. A great mystic opened his
eyes. A great change came over
him. He realized the strange
Power that knowledge gives.
That Power, he says, can trans
form the life of anyone. Questions,
whatever they are, can be answer
ed. The problems of health, death,
poverty and wrong, can be solved.
In his own case, he was brought
back to splendid health. He &C.
quired wealth, too, as. well as
worldwide professional recogni-
ton. Thirty years ago, he was sick
as a man could be and live. Once
his coffin was bought. Years OF
almost continuous tropical fevers,
broken bones, n e ar blindness,
privatiol1 and danger had made a
human wreck of him, physically
and mentally. ~.
He was about to be sent back to
England to die, when a strange
message came - They are wait
ing for you in Tibet He wants
to tell the whole world what he
learned there, under the guidance
