least the role serves to get her away
from the grim gamut Of her earlier
pictures. She Is grateful for that,
SO far as plot is concerned. THE
Trouble With Women" is no trouble
at all. she says.
A charming, unobtrusive creature,
Teresa is small and petite, with
wavy black hair and exciting blue
green eyes. Modest and unassum-
ing, she has refreshing person.
ality and mobile quality which is
reflected In her work. At times
happy to the point of being deIir-
ious, she is still starry-eyed about
life in general and her career in
particular.
Before she arrived in films, she
repeatedly remarked. Il Just can't
believe I'm actually going to be In
picture with Bette Davisp Her
interest in everything that was go
ing on around her was so great that
the property men literally had to
sweep her off the set to get her to
go home at night.
Born in New York City, Teresa
was reared in Maplewood, N. j.,
where her father was an insurance
broker. She appeared to such ad-
vantage In high school plays that
her dramatic teacher, convinced
that here was born actress, helped
her to scholarship to the Wharf
Theater In Provincetown. There she
spent summer painting scenery.
arranging props. tending to the
lights and, thanks to her tiny size,
occasionally playing small children
on the stage.
After being graduated from high
school, she spent second summer
in Provincetown, again as an ap-
prentice, and invaded Broadway the
following September. The best offer
she could obtain, however, was as
understudy to Dorothy MCGUIRE in
Our Town" 1t didn't add up to
experience though, for Miss Me-
Guire, who had followed Martha
Scott in the role, was never sick
or late, and Teresa wasn't able to
substitute for her. When the play
toured New England, she signed
for the lead. And the summer fol-
lowing, she gained additional prac-
tical experience with session Of
stock plays in New Hampshire.
The next fall, she returned for
another fling at Broadway, and read

wanted blond In the role, he was
unable to find any one else who had
such a pleasant Quaver In her voice
On November 8, 1899, date which
will live in her history, she ap-
peared for the first time on Broad
way. She was so thrilled and ex-
cited opening night, she recalls, that
she didn't even have stage fright.
1t wasn't long after the opening
OF Life With Father" that Holly
wood was hot on her trail. AS she
had a horror of ending up as leg
art queen, she turned deaf ear to
all proposals.
Eventually, in 1941, Samuel Gold
wyn approached her with specific
part in mind, that of Alexandra
In THE Little Foxes" Teresa sought
Serlin's advice. Although he had
just signed her to run-o -the-play
contract, Serlin told her to take
the job and, by way Of giving her
his blessing, he directed her in the
screen test which was necessary to
clinch the deal.
Now married to Niven Busch, the
writer, Teresa lives in comparative
quiet and reasonable security In an
odd. modernistic sort Of house In
the San Fernando Valley. While
anything but domestic, she saves

imaginable, like cooking, needle

ADJUSTMENTS.
Imperial Valley press., 1945-08-26
CONGRESS MUST RESTORE
JOB RIGHTS FOR GIs

There should not be too much worry
or agitation over the fact that with the
end of the selective service law also
comes repeal of the rights of servicemen
to resume the jobs they left when in
Quoted, providing they, want the same
jobs back.
1t just SO happens that it was con-
venient to include this protection in the
so-called draft act. And when congress
enacted the CT Bill of Rights measure
the job phase was not included, probably
because it would have required changing
the selective service act.
If congress had the power to enact the
job protection law as part of the selec
tive service act, then it, of course has the
power to enact separate statute
When General Hershey, who enforces
the selective service law made the an
nOuncement recently that the job pro-
lection would be null and void, consider
able adverse comment was heard and in
some channels the tone. of the criticism
was to the effect that'the country was
letting the Servicemen down." No doubt
there are certain employers, or perhaps
a certain CLASS Of employers who would
be pleased if this were the case; then
they could shop around, But one of the
1lfSt tnlngS congress SnOuId, ana no QOuDC
will do, upon recOnvening next month
is to pass the necessary legislation to
continue the job protection.
In the meantime it apepars that en-
plOyers who have undertaken to be ready
in advance to take the servicemen back
have had slight success in obtaining any
definite word from the men. These are
making a determined and progressive
effort to have everything ready so there
will be no delay when the ex-serviceman
appears with his discharge and ready to
go back on the old job
1t is plain that there must be consider
,able reshuffling Of employees when the
'change-OVer comes, and the far-sighted
,emplOyer wants to avoid confusion and
'Wants also to do the best they can for
the cmplOye who must vacate. Replies
are slow coming from the servicemen and
in many cases the employers request for
cooperation has been ignored
But the protective law should be put
b&ck on the statute books.
There should not be even a shadow of
intent to let the man down who has been
away from his job doing the fighting.

TIME TO CHECK UP
fSan Diego Union)

Secretary of the Treasury Vinson re-
Gently has been quoted as saying that our
paacetime budget for some time follow
ing the end Of the war is likely to be
about $25 billion year. This figure is
from 81 billion to $40 billion greater
than the estimates previously made by
many public officials and economists.
1t probably is nearer the truth than the
other estimates, most of which mini
mized the requirements for veterans aid,
possible unemployment programs and
the continued maintenance Of large army
and navy forces. Twenty-Five billions
constitutes a huge peacetime budget at
time when the public has reason to expect
some substantial reduction in taxes.
A budget Of such dimensions carefully
should suggest to those in authority that
all attainable domestic economies should
be invoked More than that, it should
suggest the closest scrutiny Of all the
various proposals for wholesale aid to
other nations One hard fact seemingly
overlooked by many of those who con-
slider it our mission to care for the uni
verse is that we are not only broke, but
nearly $500 billion worse than broke.
L llC OILY way we CdIl serve dS d l)HlldH-
thrOpiSt to the remainder of humanity is
by borrowing money from our own citi-
zenS or loading them up indefinitely with
heavy taxes. We haven't got the Sc bill
lion dollars Great Britain wants to bOr-
row or the So billion Russia would like
us to lend them. We haven't even got the
billions it will take to feed the hungry
and clOthe the half-naked of liberated
countries. We haven't got the $6 billion
to finance the Breton Woods plan or
the import-eXpOrt bank. All this money
has to be borrowed from our own people
and repaid by them in taxes now or
later.
In the circumstances, it would seem
the part of common sense to count up our
liabilities and our prospects of meeting
them before going over our heads for
more and more billions for the benefit Of
other peoples. The United States dollar
thus far has proved the stabilizer of
world finances. If it is cheapened by
over-extenSiOn Of debt, no good will come
either to other nations or ourselves. AL
ready we have contributed some $40-odd
billions in lend lease; we will have nearly
$12 billion unpaid debts from World
War |. Without in any sense trying to
shirk our legitimate obligations to hu-
manity, we ought as a matter of self
preservation and justice to our own peO-
pie, to start checking up a little before
we proceed to commit ourselves to un-
bcarablc responsibilities.
