VERONICA LAKE
 SEARS IN FILM
 AT 10TH CENTURY

When Veronica Lake is seen to- night at the 20th Century Theatre as Dora in Paramount's The Hour Before the Dawn" fiction's most dangerous and vicious woman will have reached the screen. Conceived in the mind of w. Somerset Maugh- am, Dora possesses all the venomous hate associated with other famous Vaughan characters.
 Bette Davis immortalized his Mill dred in "Of Human Bondage the role that established her in the star ring bracket and followed it with the memorable characterization of his wicked Leslie in "The Letter. But in all screen history none has compared in capacity for hate and revenge with Miss Lakes Dora. Co., ing back to the screens infancy, the horror gal of that time was un- questionably Nita Naldi, who loved nothing better than sweet sound of crunching bones as she ground her heel into some mans neck. Her most wicked performance was in Blood and Sand, when she seduced the handsome and famous matador, Ru- dolph Valentino, only to cruelty laugh at his love when his fame faded.
 Pola Negri in "A Woman of the World portrayed the heartless and calculating female who crushed mems hearts between her thumb and forefinger when their usefulness had ended. There was Garbo's bru- tally shrewd Mata Hari and Estelle Taylor, fierce and cunning, in "Tiger Love both dangerous and determ- ined women.
 But of all these fictional viragos Bette Davis performance in 'The Little Foxes was perhaps the most outstanding for pure unadulterated vitriol But Veronica Lakes per- formance in The Hour Before the Dawn" constitutes the challenge, for Miss Lake, the most wicked and ruthless woman ever to appear on the screen, poses as meek little refugee-the epitome of sweet young innocence.

sez he didn't get any letters from
me for the last ten weeks. Can't
understand it, because I mailed one
every week. mailed it the same
day that sent checks to all the
people here that I owed money to-
And, funny thing, they say they
didn't get any mail or MONEY from
me either. Oh well, mebbe forgot
to mail 'em.
Seriously, now can tell what I
have been doing for several months.
I was doing secret work for the
government perfecting the atomic
bomb. For years have been hand
ling it in liquid form at the Con-
cordia Bar, and only in the last few
months, the government and were
able to put it in a concentrated
form. You see the results. What
has happened to Nagasaki and
Hiroshima has been happening to
me for years.

Employment of Handicapped

Both as an inducement for indus
try to hire handicapped veterans
and a protection to both industry and
the veteran, 28 state legislatures
have now enacted second-injury-
fund statutes which, in general re-
quire employers to pay workmen's
compensation only for specific Sec
ond injuries.
The fund pays the additional costs
of permanent total disability result
ing from the loss of a hand, arm,
foot, leg or eye, following previ-
Gus loss of one of these members or
organs. The fund is usually financed
by payments of fixed amounts by
an employer or his insurance COM
pany in the case of death OF an
employee having no dependents.
Freed from the fear of heavy per-
manent total disability charges in
these cases, employers are much
more willing to employ handicapped
workers.
According to records submitted by
the department of labor, the cost OF
maintaining second injury funds is
small, for recent studies show han
dicapped workers are actually more
careful than normal employees and
have a lower accident frequency.
Employers had been reluctant to
hire these handicapped veterans lest
they suffer second injuries, become
permanently and totally disabled
and cost employers increased work
mems compensation charges.
States which have established
these second injury funds include
Arkansas, Idaho. Illinois, Maine.
Massachusetts,, Michigan. Mime
sofa, Missouri, New Jersey, New
York, North Carolina, Oklahoma.
Rhode Island, South Carolina, Utah.
Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas,
Maryland, Oregon, Tennessee.

ments while California, Connecticut
