and purchasing to get into act production, he explained.
 THINKS PUBLIC WILL BUY

Goodman asked Elliott if RIGA owned approximately 60 percent of the FM patents. Elliott said yes, but that any other manufacturing companies could use them.
 Goodman asked Elliott if he had considered whether the sale of many radios without FM would limit the potential audience for FM stations in deciding to go into production of non-F'M sets immediately after VJ- Day.
 Elliott said he hadn't taken that into consideration. But he said he believed the American people would buy new sets with FIM when they would become available. He said the average life of a radio was from seven to 10 years.
 The RIGA president said his company did not plan to put I'M in any auto or portable radios. He said that at present prices and de- velopment of FM, RIGA didn't plan to put I'M in it's smaller sets which would range from S25 to $40. It takes a six-tube circuit for an I'M set that measures up to RCA's standard, he said, and that radio would be in the s70 and above range.
 Goodman asked Elliott just how many sets RIGA planned to make be- fore next Jan. l. Elliott refused to answer on the grounds that that was trade information which would be valuable to competitors. He said that RIGA planned to put I'M in 6t percent of it's sets which sold fol i S69. .98 and higher.

Atlanta, Ga.-We flew into At lanta from Mobile and to get un- der the weather We were really flying low. When We landed I got off and scraped three bales of cotton off the propellers. I got a wonderful Southern welcome at the airport. The Mayor met me carrying a big bottle in a bucket of cracked ice. How the crowd cheered when I pulled out the cork and poured glassful of sparkling hominy grits. You know what hominy gritS are-that's Confederate corn flakes. It took quite a while to get my baggage unloaded. I'm traveling with twelve trunks.
 Twelve trunks in this hot weather I figure you can't have too much underwear. Going to the hotel We drove up Atlanta's fa- nous Peachtree Street and we passed plenty of peaches but they wouldn't let me stop to do any picking. These Georgia girls are really pretty and they talk so slow, it's wonderful. When you ask one of them out to dinner by the time she finishes saving whether she'll go or not the wait CT is bringing dessert. -
 They grow lotta peanuts around here and I gave them a great idea my brother had for inn proving the crop. He plants the seeds in a piece of Scotch tape and when the peanuts come up they're already in the little cello phane bag. We did an evening show here in ball park and had a real baseball atmosphere. All thru the show I was up front pitching and afterwards the audi ence came back stage swinging. However, I'm glad we were able to get to Atlanta. I promised Nell son Eddy I'd see if could pick him up some shortenin' bread wholesale. /. ..

HOLLYWOOD, July 12-Ever since the movie industry wore sWad- ding clothes, the No. l converse tional sport of Hollywood's top flight stars and directors has been the discussion of what great pie lures I could make if 1t weren't for the gross commercialism of the studios" The actors who has work- ed in more than one picture without becoming proficient in analyzing the faults of the big producers, and glib in outlining all the artis- tic improvements that he would make if only he were given chance, has always been Hollywood od- dity.
 And that's exactly why, when stars and directors by the scads and oddles began organizing their own independent production con- panies a couple of years ago, made it a rule to see all of their pictures. At long last, the fault finders were going to have a chance to show the world what real screen artistry could be.
 What a letdoWn! In my opinion, and in the opinions of every re- cognized reviewer to whom I've talked, the independent pictures of the past two years have been far inferior, on the average, to major studio product. Of hand, can not recall one single movie. produced by an organization headed by a star or a director that has really been outstanding as a contribution to screen art.
 Instead of going all out for artis- tic innovations the independents have chung more slayishly to the ried-and-proven paths than have the big studio heads whom they de- lighted to aSsail. Watching their results, I've been reminded again of LongfelloW's line: Big words do not smite like warclubs; boast ings do not tWang like boWstrings."
 Memories That Bless And Burn: When Uncle Carl Laemmle posted slogans over all stage entrances at Universal, reading: T would like more loyalty and fewer prima don- nas"-and some Wag changed them to read: We would like more money and fewer Laemmles!" When Mae West sent to a movie magazine scribe who was doing yarn about the phenomenal results of her re- ducing diet a dozen new figure photographs-and inclosed, by mis- take, a bill from her retoucher for slimming her hips, .. When Greta Garbo, then at the peak of her fame as a Sphinx Woman" mo- tified the proprietor of a High Sierra resort that she would arrive there pricesely at three P. M., one Saturday afternoon, and asked him to have all his other guests keep | to their cabins, with their shades tightly drawn, while she checked | in.

the lady who heads Assistance Leagues location bureau reports that she is encountering difficulty in arranging for the use of local mansions. Too many of the owners have put two and two together and wondered why, with so many film moguls living in luxurious quarters, the industry needs to appeal to outsiders. They discovered, on in- vestigation. that there are only two film tycoons who will allow To- cation work on their premises.
 Thanks to the magic of makeup, audiences attending The Black outs" will never know it, but the fact 1t that eKn Murray is suffering a slight discoloration around his right eye. Thereby hangs a story that any papa of husky young ster will appreciate. Seems Ken was devouring a murder mystery the other afternoon as one of his two boys stood by his chair asking him a barrdge of questions. YeS. yes -. uh-huh," grunted Murray to all queries without bothering to act- ually hear them. Suddenly he re- ceived wallop squarely in the eye. How Come?" he demanded indig- nantly. Well" was the answer, T asked you if you wanted to see my new punch, and you said yes!"
 Don't blame the many Holly Woodites who have chuckled iron ically when they read publicity blurb announcing that the Last Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas, Ne vada, is asking Filmville's colum- nists to vote on our most happily married couple. whom the hotel management will then dedicate it's new super de luxe bridal suite.

 Dean StockWell, nine-year old star of Anchors Aweigh" portrays the Shannon role in early se- quences of the film.
 In the romantic lead opposite Drake is titian-haired Beverly Ty- Ter a product of M-G-M's most careful grooming, who makes her film debut in the part of Alison Keith. The young Alison is played by six-year old Eilene Jansen, child model and cover girl.
 Hume Cronyn, an Academy Award nominee for his performance in last years The Seventh Cross" has another brilliant Characterization as penny-pinching, narrow-minded, tyrannical Papa Leckie Veteran stage and screen players Gladys Cooper and Selene Royle portray Grandma and Mama Leckie.
 Other members ofthe Leckie fam fly include Jessica Tandy as the neurotic daughter, Kate; Norman Lloyd, young stage actor under new ] contract to M-G-M, as Adam; ano Robert North, who played the juv- emile lead in Helen Hayes produc- ton, Harriet" as Murdoch.

4,OOO GI Dead In Europe Still 

Washington, July 12-(UP)-The Army reported today that approxi- mately 4,000 of the 134,OO0 Ameri- cans buried in military cemeteries in Europe are still unidentified.
 The bodies are being exhumed, the Army said, in the hope that they can be identified.
 Army policy allows only Ameri- cans to handle the bodies. Native laborers open the graves within one foot of the remains. American personnel then continue the exca- vation and remove the bodies
 The Army's graves registration unit said 5000 Army and civilian experts aided by 4,000 German pris- oners are continuing the search for the bodies of some 25,0OO men who were killed or are listed as missing

BY DOUGLAS LARSEN

Washington, July 12-tNEA1-The United Automobile Workers and Ra- dio Corporation of America have had their first face-tO-face skirmish before the Federal Communications Commission over the unions charg- es that RIGA is attempting to hold up the development of frequency meditation broadcasting in Amer ica
 The initial round appeared to be draw.
 Both U. A. w. and RCA's subsidia- ". National Broadcasting Company are trying to get licenses for I'M stations in Chicago. This is the gist of the U. A. w. complaint against RIGA;
 NEG has many clear chan nel regular broadcasting stations
 in the country which give 1t an advantage for its advertising. II
 I'M should become the most po-
 pular medium of broadeasting It
 would reduce NBC's advantage
 ous position because there would
 be many I'M stations. RIGA
 owns NEG. RIGA owns 50 percent
 of the patents governing the
 manufacture of F'M receiving
 sets. Therefore RIGA, by hold
 ing up production of I'M sets,
 will keep I'M from becoming as
 popular as it could. Therefore NEG will retain the advantage
 of it's clear channel stations.
 his part Of the argument is bas-
 ed on the claim that RIGA is one
 of the largest producers of ra-
 dio sets in the country and tits
 production and sales practices
 and policies have an important
 bearing upon the number of FM
 receiving sets which are and will
 be available to the American
 people"
 U. A. W. charges that with this al- leged motive to hold back F'M, NEG should not be granted a license te operate an FM station in Chicago. EXTENSIVE VENTURE
 During these hearings RIGA made its first public reply to the U. A. w charges. It put Joseph B. Elliott president in charge of it's homt instruments department, on thf stand with U. A. WIS attorney Er- nest Goodman firing charges at hin in the form of questions
 ;. Elliott revealed that RIGA woulc have combination I'M and AM setS on the market by September. Ht said they would range upwards II price from S6989 He said that i wasn't economically feasible to pu FM in radios that sold for less thar that price, according to preSent-daS prices. The most expensive cabi' net models with FM, he said, Woule sell for around S400.
 Goodman asked him why RCf had made so many sets immediate ly after the war without FM.
 Elliott said he ordered it because he wanted to get into production with radios as fast as possible. H. said it wasn't until March, 1946 that RIGA had perfected it's FM re search to the point where the com pany was ready to plan for large scale production. It would talk from then until the coming Septem Der to do the necessary planning

 The board said there was no doubt that these three big ships were out of action and along with many others within three-fourths of a mile, would have required eXten- sive repairs at a principal naval base
 The board said there was little damage to ships anchored beyond three-fourths of mile from the explosion point.
 Primary material effects noted were due to blasts, buckling of decks and bulkheads, destruction and damage of lightly constructed ob- jects, such as stacks, masts and antennae.
 Secondary effects were attributed to fire. The board pointed out that because the target ships carried no personnel, the fires were uncon- trolled, resulting in more damage than there would have been under battle conditions.
