HOLLYWOOD FARE
By ROBIN cooNs

Cabot's pals from overseas plan ming a Hollywood trip: The actor has leased the 14-room house over- looking Sunset boulevard that was the late Pauline Frederick's. Nice thing to know in a town where it's as hard to find a room as to find a carton of your favorite cigar cites, and vice versa.
 One of tte rooms is reserved for trophies brought back or be- ing shipped from North Africa (where It. Cabot served as an op- erations officer with the Air Force) but if you're tired and the joint is crowded you probably won't mind sleeping around few spears, dancing girls silver ank- lets, Arab shawls, knives and the like.
 But you'd better make your reservation early. The first gang is already headed for the Cabot hotel" from the east. Why IA rooms for an unattached male? Tt was the only house I could find," he said. "I stayed with Err rol Flynn until I got it."
 Gone for nearly two years, Cabot is now on the inactive list, subject to recall if needed. "But I don't expect I'll be called" he grinned, unless somebody in vades Paramount"
 This is where Cabot has resum- ed his career-as heavy, of course-in the Alan Ladd film, Salty O'Rourke." He has never really been "off the screen" in as- much as his last film prior to join- ing up, "The Desert Song," was released only last year.
 Interesting sidelight: While Casablanca he found, bore no re- semblarce whatever to the town of the Bogart- rt-Bergman film, the sand of the Riff country of "Des- ert Song" were very similar to those of the movie. "Just as san- dy," he observed. Natives did a fair business escorting GIs, for a fee, to the Moroccan house "where Gary Cooper slept" while making "Beau Geste" "-a trip Bruce passed up for various reasons. among them the sure knowledge that "Beau Geste" was filmed in Arizona.
 After these months away Cabot finds Hollywood 'looks good" and is unchanged except for a few new faces. And my wardrobe, he added not without bitterness. Three thousand dollars worth of clothes I left in storage - and moths got into all of 'em."
 By coincidence Cabot's Filipino houseboy received discharge from military service simultane- O,1c1v xxyifb fbo oc<ov t~,,< <l. l-.-

So they aIl-Broty, the children,
Sandra and the attorney-got into
Gordon Adams station wagon and
drove to the Mesquite Ranch. Here
the lawyer inspected the swimming
pool, then visited the coroner in
Copper Creek. Then they drove on
down to La MADEIRA
Belinda told her story in a closed
room, which was fortunate, for she
was scarlet with shame. And she
gripped Sandra's hand all the while
she talked.
The coroner" stated Bellnda's
lawyer, says she was killed in

mother"
But didn't know that. Don't
you see that makes it as bad as If

She covered her face with her
hands. Never"
But she would. The grownups
knew 1t. Even Spenser knew it.

said.

said Spenser.
The little girl turned TO the
judge. dad will get out right
away, won't he ?"
She looked less miserable when
told that he would. Sandra also
was relieved. She had wanted to
know, but dared not ask.
In the hallway she told Spenser:
Take Belinda to the station wag-
on and wait for me-" When the two
were beyond earshot she asked the
California attorney: How do you
go about seeing someone Just re-

offices, the jail did not look like a

by lovely gardens.

into long drawn-out sigh.

woman. "She had been in and out

BELINDA WAS not crying as
she had been when she left with
Brody. She was doing something
worse. She was shuddering, so con-
tinuously. that Sandra was fright
ened.
Darling" she said softly. stop
shaking. Please stop" You couldn't
give a little girl brandy to steady
her. stop, Belinda You'll make
yourself sick" But the horrible
shuddering went right on.
Spenser stared speechlessly at
his friend, then turned to Sandra
and put his fist against his nose,
making shifting noise. He meant
smelling salts. the woman decided.
Come upstairs, Belinda" In
Sandra's room Spenser turned back
tho bed covers and was ready with
the smelling salts by the time San
dra had the girl in bed.
Not wanting to, he nevertheless
obeyed Sanara's gestured command
and left the room.
How did you get here, Belin-
da?"
'Brody." Her teeth were chatter
ing. She crawled deeper beneath
the comfort. Hes gone to get a
lawyer"
That's good" Sandra said with
relief.
"Oh no. No! No" cried the little
girl, trembling still worse. "A law
yer won't do any good"
Sandra said sharply: Don't talk
like that. Don't you want to save
your father?" Only her terrible
personal fear made her ask such a
thing. She wished she could retract
her words, for they put Belinda In
a state of near convulsion.

say, II didn't mean that. But we

In view OF the above. some read

ing some cash and governments on

the one chance in ten ~ a severe
break in the market This might
give such extraordinary opp0rtuni-

amount OF cash on hand for this
"One In ten" chance,

In mind. let me refer 10 an Invest
ment List recently issued by a very

Stocks. These stocks today sell

ers Of this for the past five years.
Those who took my advice are sit.
ting pretty today.
There are two things that can
happen in the present situation
% Unreasonably high prices and
profits which will result in increas-
ed employment; % Unreasonably
lower prices and high wages which
will result in much unemployment.
Neither of these will win out. but,
there will be general compromise
by both groups yielding something.
This compromise may not suit any
body, but II should result In higher
stock prices. On the other hand.
il is well TO keep some funds liquid

Ny Personal Conclusion
This column has always been sue
cessful in advising when TO get
ting out. 1t is always more difficult.
Preceding 1929 there were many
danger signals, but there were al
most none preceding the decline In
1887. Certainly, conditions are
very much better today than in
1929 or 1897 when business was I'M
certain and when so per cent OF the
stocks were held on borrowed mon
ey.
Yet both OF these bull markets
1929 and 1937-were followed by a
nose dive in general business; GER
tainly. this is not in evidence at
the moment. Furthermore. money
rates were high in those years,
years. while they today are very
low with no immediate chance of
their going higher. The only fly
in the ointment at present is in
connection with labor strikes; and
have never known anyone to make
money by selling stocks during ia
Dor troubles. Hence, my personal
conclusion is that both the labor
leaders and Mr.. Bowles will re-
treat from their present absolute
ly unreasonable stands. II so, much
more prosperity surely is ahead
and the stock market is not too
high. Moreover, only by such a
compromise will much unemploy-
ment be avoided.
