CHUNGKING, Mar. 21.-A

one-party rule in China.
Both spokesmen termed the polit-

The charges against the Kuomin-

No. 2 Chinese Communist leader,
Gen. Chou En-lai, who today de-

Gen. Chou will report, said the

Meanwhile Chinese press dis

Bread, properly cared for" he
said, lis just as good the second day
after baking as it is the first day.
In fact, great many people prefer
bread more than one day old"
If housewives would open the
wrapper at the end of the loaf, take
out the number of slices to be served
and then twist the wrapper slightly.
Mr.. Langford declared, the wax
paper will fully protect the fresh
ness of the remaining slices. An
other method, he added, of protect
ing bread is to place it in the re-
frigerator.
J. B. Luttes, president of the En-
ploying Bakers Association of

bakers would agree with Mr.. Lang
ford's position. He suggested that
washing out the bread boxes with
vinegar will help preserve the fresh

There was no scanning of lists
to find the right types. When
Lazar Wechsler began produc-
ton of "The Last Chance" which
is based on Richard Schweizer' S
novel, he simply looked around
him and made some selections.
Whether so simple a method of
casting is effective or not will
become evident when "The Last
Chance" opens at the Esquire
Theater Thursday, Jan. 81.
Wechsler needed a young man
to play an American sergeant
who has just escaped after being
taken prisoner. There was, at
the moment, a number of young
American sergeants interned in
Switzerland, and the producer
got permission to make selec-
ton. 1t turned out to be Ray
Reagan, of Camden, New Jersey.
He then needed two English Of
ficers, one a major and the other
a lieutenant, to portray escaped
prisoners of war. He looked
around Zurich, and there they
were-Major f. c.. Morrison and
John Hoy. The only
previous acting experience en-

The picture, which stars en-
chanting Ingrid Bergman with
handsome Gregory Peck, marks
another milestone in the mete-
oric directorial career of Mr..
Hitchcock. His deft touch in the
field of screen suspense has al
ready given us such world-fa-
nous thrillers as THE Lady
Vanishes," "Thirty-nine Steps,"

"Lifeboat."
In the excellent supporting

Lewis Stone and Charles
Dingle are rehearsing a
scene for Metro -Goldwyn
Mayers Three Wise
Fools" Barrymore, Arnold
and Stone, three leading
citizens, are caught in rath-
er an embarrassing situa-
ton by Dingle, the local

The scene calls for Ar
mold, in an effort to ease
the situation, to inquire as
to the health of Dingle
daughter. But Arnold un-
Willingly changed the line.
"How's your SOM" he
booms.
"Oh," answers Dingle,
She's fine. I'm thinking
about enrolling her in Vas
sar next semester.
The boner pulls so many
laughs from the cast and
crew that Director Eddie
Buzzell lets 1t stand that
way.

joyed by any of the pictures
three top players was a little
turn by John Hoy before the
war.
The sole professionals in the
cast of "The Last Chance" are
Therese Giehse, one of the fore
most actresses on the Continent;
Robert Schwarz, who is a lead
ing Swiss actor; and Giuseppe
Galeati, an Italian star of note
Galeati and Madame Giehse
found themselves in Zurich be-
cause their countries-Italy and
Germany-were singularly un-
safe for anyone who had views
about freedom. To get them to
portray important roles in "The
Last Chance" Wechsler had
practically only to drop them
post cards.
AS for the others in the cast,
they were picked almost by
chance. A Jewish tailor from
Poland and his niece are actu-
ally played by a Jewish tailor
from Poland and his niece. A
former German professor is seen
in the role of a German profes-
sor. A Dutch woman and an
Italian girl are exactly such in
the picture. Down to the small
est roles, people portray them
selves.
1t may be said that "The Last
Chance" is product of type
casting. But it must be admitted
that here is type-casting with a
difference.

Hollywood Locale
OF Chandler Novels

HOLLYWOOD - Hollywood
had its picture taken from all
angles in Paramounts The
Blue Dahlia." :"
Few writer's have focused as
much attention on one commu-
nifty as Raymond Chandler, au-
thor OF the film, has brought to
Los Angeles In his four novels,
numerous short stories and now,
his first original screenplay.
Chandler is not likely to re-
ceive any citations, however,
from the local Chamber of Com
merce. All of his writings since
1892, when he sold his first
story TO a pulp magazine, have
had a Los Angeles-Hollywood
background and all of them
have dealt with assorted viol-
ence, indicating to the more sem
sitive civic minds that vice rivals
oranges as a chief commodity of
Southern CALIFORNIA; largest
community.
Well Knows Spots Featured
In The Blue Dahlia," for ex-
ample, the web of Chamberlain
mystery begins with the Staying
of a beautiful woman in q fash
ionable land fictitiousD Holly

there on, its story of crime and
rscketeering proceeds in set
tings which will be recognizable
Immediately TO the Los Angeles
citiZenry and also to fans
throughout the nation who have
become familiar with many
widely-publicized local spots.
Chief setting is a night club
called The Blue Dahlia", on
the Sunset Strip. First meeting
of the two leads, Alan Ladd and
Veronica Lake, takes place in
typical Chandler style-on Ca
huenga Pass on a rainy night.
They go on to Malibu, and for
their first love scene the writer
chose a site near Griffith Park
observatory on . moonlit eve
ming.

mont returning home after re-
ceiving Navy discharges begin
at the Hollywood bus station
and proceed down the "canteen
row" on Cahuenga boulevard.
Chandler himself has been a
resident of Hollywood for fiji
teen years. He has chosen to
place all his crime stories in the
locale of his adopted home town,
he hastens to assure his neigh
bors, because it is familiar to
him, and not because he has
found it particularly crime
ridden.
Few know that the master of
fast-moving A m ric n crime
stories is English, although he
was born in this country. 1t per-
haps presaged the nature of his
writings that his birthplace was
of all places--Chicago.

They gripped him so completely
that he found himself sitting
