melodic title. 1t opened at the Palace
yesterday, majestic thought for
Christmas eve, and if your spirit of
good will toward man can be made
to cover the author of the script,
you will find it merry deal.
Frankly the basic screenplay may
provide quite test for your sense
of forgiveness. AS film life stories
gos this one also carries sentiment
to the simpering point.
Virtually the whole of M-G-M's
cleaning population is worked into
a huge star cluster in Till the
Clouds Roll By" A few of the par
ticipantS include Van Johnson, June
AlLyson, Frank Sinatra, Judy Gar
land, Robert Walker. Dinah Shore,
Lena Horne, Van Hef1in and Lu-
cilIe Bremen. Since the earliest man
found a song to sing, no composers
work, has been given such COM
plete treatment.
To get the work of so many peo-
Pile into the work of one man, at
least one so prolific as Kern, makes
a long picture of the Palace musical.
And to round out the colossal in its
dimensions, the production depart
ment's recalls of Kern's biggest hits
are big enough to explain the build
ing materials shortage. Such of the
mans work as Show Boat"
Sunny" ETC., are reproduced on
scale that makes the original thea
ter productions mere working
models.
Meriting the deepest bow for the
melodic and visual virtues of It'll
the Clouds Roll BY" is Director
Richard Whorf. A less dextrous fel-
low with 23-song show would have
given up and been buried under the
Lavish, expensive debris of the pro-
duction. Whorf, like resolute Atlas,
is in there wrestling every minute
with effective results.
AS Metros beautifully costumed
people throw back their heads and
sing Kern's music, or turn it into
swirling dance figures, tale of the
composers life seeps along the
stream of technicolor 1t has to tell
of his lifelong friendship with Jim
Hessler, an arranger who dreamed
Evening star., 1946-12-25

of great symphonic compositions; of
Kerns bedeviled courtship; OF his
friendships with slews of producers
and stars, and of problems with the
petulant daughter of Hessler. a
gifted but wayward child.
Actually, one of the most dramatic
things about Till the Clouds Roll
By" is the way some of its largest
stars become submerged. They are
all introduced in the credit list, but
the list is SO long and the produc-
ton numbers SO overpowering In
size and color, that those coming at
the end enter as complete surprises.
This is most notably true of Van
Johnson's appearance as a band
maestro who dances and sings a
spirited interlude of Il Won't
Dance" with Miss Bremen, and OF
Frank Sinatra who winds things up
with an impressive "Old Man River"

Kickboek Racket
For Eye Doctors
Charged By y. S.

WASHINGTON - (LPA) -
A kick-back racket operated by
eye doctors and the nations
largest spectacle manufacturers
mulcted the public of many
millions of dollars each year" 1t
was disclosed last week as the
Justice Dept. filed antitrust
suits against the nations biggest
optical wholesalers and So eye
doctors.
Atty. Gen. Tom Clark said
that the two groups violated the
Sherman antitrust act by fixing
the price of spectacles at twice
their cost and "rebating" to the
doctors approximately one-half
of the total price paid by their
patients for eye glasses. Clark
said the So doctors were listed
as defendant a representatives
of their class.
Patients purchasing eye glass
es on prescription, declared
Clark, "Pay prices which are
inflated approximately 100 per
cent by the amount of the re-
bate paid by these companies
to the prescribing doctors. that
some individual doctors receive
as much as $4,000 annually in
rebates"
Two of the firms, Bausch &
Lomb, of Rochester, N. Y, and
American Optical Co., of South
bridge, Mass. do about 20 per
cent of the prescription business
in the country.

Won't Need
Money TO
Defect Truman

WASHINGTON (LPA)-Con-
gress was told recently by A. F,
Whitney, president of the Broth
erhood of Railroad Trainmen,
that "the basic cause of labor
unrest is labor's fear that Con-
gress by passing harmful legis-
lation and refusing to pass good
legislation will undo the handi-
work of great leaders of the peo-
pie and reimpose economic slav-
cry on American workers. Any
attempt to do so will be accom-
panied by widespread industrial
unrest and violence"
Whitney renewed his attack
on President Truman for his ac-
tions in the railroad strike in
testimony before special House
Labor Subcommittee investigat-
ing the basic causes of strikes.
Referring to his statement last
month that the BRIT was pre-
pared to spend $2,300,000 to de-
feat Truman, Whitney said, "Im
convinced now we won't need to
spend any money to beat Tru-
man IL he is a candidate"
Labor feels that reactionary
Interests are being served" said
Whitney, "and not the welfare
OF the American people. 1t feels
that if this tendency continues,
Congress may even seek to Grip
pie labor's right to collective
bargaining.

William Lavelle, secretary-treas-

Lavelle also asked the COVER

include increased wages and
benefits to injured industrial
workers, state employees, teach
ers and inmates of state institu-
tions.
A resolution adopted by the

Strikers Win
I0-Yeur FIGHT

READING, Pa, Aug. 20
(LPA) - It cost the Berkshire
Knitting Mills here a half-mil-
lion dollars because, nearly 10
years ago, it refused to rehire
members of the American Fed
Grafton of Hosiery Workers who
went on strike. The $500, 900
settlement, paid to 525 AFHW-
CIO members last week, is the
largest in the history of Wagner
Act enforcement, regional NLRB
officials say.
The Berkshire workers struck
Oct. 1, 1885. The NLRB found
the company had engaged in un-
fair labor practices which pre-
cipitated and prolonged the
strike. Strikers applied for re-
instatement in the fall of 1887,
and the company refused to re-
e m ploy them. The Supreme
Court fin ally sustained the
NLRB in May, 1914. Under the
Wagner Act, the strikers are en-
titled to back pay from the fall
of 1887 until July, 1914, when
the company agreed to reinstate
the strikers. Deducted from this
is any money earned by claim
ants during the period.
Three workers received more
than $500, seven got between
$4,000 and $3,500, and % re-
ceived between $4,000 and
$4,000. In several cases, the
checks were claimed by the es-
tates of strikers. Several claim
ants died in World War II.
Berkshire Knitting Mills are
not only the giant in this indus
try" said AFHW Secretary
Treasurer William Smith, "but
are bullies as well. When they
crack the price whip, the rest
of the industry follow meekly.
The history of their treatment of
the labor whom they employ
filled many pages of the NLRB
record, and the reading of 1t
takes one back to medieval
days"
1--WE will continue in our cam
paign to organize the workers
in these mills" he asserted, Gun
til the Berkshire workers are
fully protected by a labor rela-
tions contract negotiated by this
union"

JobIess Vets
Forecast

Three million veterans will be

here recently and the Veterans

ment with the forecast of Vet
Grams Administrator Omar Brad
ley that there will be 1000, 900

organization is forming employ
ment committees in each of it's
$50 chapters throughout the
country to work with the U. S..
Employment Service and with
local employers to provide jobs
for veterans
Veterans face certain special
problems because of their Army
service, Bolte pointed out. Vet
Grams are finding themselves
without jobs because many of
them left the Army after recon-
version had set in and job op-
portunities were limited. "An-
other Job handicap of veterans" F"
he said. ''is that many were not
employed before they went in
