lot-of men are confined to their

Committee is Mrs. Charles B.
Harding of New York, tall, blond
and very lovely looking lady who
has come to Washington because
her husband is serving as a COM

Women Of the Press
Hear Talk BY
W bi,nsy Writer
By Gretchen Smith

That sex appeal is the common
denominator of lady politicians and
Hollywood movie stars was the opin-
ion expressed by Frederick G. 9th
man, newspaper columnist, in a talk
before the Women's National Press
Club yesterday.
Columnist in Hollywood for many
years, Mr.. Gilman, who now writes
Of persons and events in the Ma
tional Capital. was guest speaker at
= luncheon meeting of the women
reporters at the Willard Hotel.
Asked what similar attraction he
found among the glamour girls OF
the screen capital and those of
Washington, he replied unhesitat-
ingly, "sex!"
Take Mrs. Luce for example" he
smiled. when she talks, they
listen, but If Congressman Jones of
Arkansas speaks, nobody pays any
attention to him"
In mentioning Mrs. Luce, the
speaker said, by the way, she came
to Hollywood two years ago to write
story of Nine. Chang Kai-shek.
She had luxurious Office turned
over to her and staff of workers,
but I never heard what became of
her story. There's a tip for you
girlS!"
The columnist- humorist declared
that while the girls of Hollywood
are beautiful, they look too much
alike. He explained that Hollywood
producers are to blame for this by
transforming would-b be- stars along
the same pattern. He told of an
attractive dark-haired Mexican
dancer who arrived in Hollywood
where they raised her hair-line by
electrolysis, bleached and dyed her
black hair an attractive shade of
red, reduced her weight" and then,
made her little curves to appear
like big curves" with canned sex"
and the Mexican dancer, Maria
Cansino became-Rita Hayworth!
Queried by member of the club
as to where one might purchase
canned sex" the speaker smilingly
explained it was just plain cold
cream, which applied in the right
way on the right places, gave Ger
tain illusions on the screen.
Mr.. Gilman confided that writ
ing from Hollywood and writing
from Washington produced a COM
mon reaction from the public. He
receives lots of fan mail-most of it
uncomplimentary!
Miss Edith Gaylor, the president,
presided and introduced the speaker,
