Barrett today denied that he
considered Howard B. Gill, sus-
pended penal superintendent, in
any way responsible, directly OF
indirectly, for the escape of two
convicted murderers from the
District Jail April 3.
Defense Attorney John ]. Wilson
accused Mr.. Barrett of "prejudice
and bias yesterday in his testimony
during the congressional Jail inves-
tigation when lhe was called before
an inquiry board hearing charges
of ineftlciency against Mr.. Gill to-
day.
Was he responsible for the mud
died conditions leading up to the
April 3 eScapes?" Mr.. Wilson asked
No" Inspector Barrett said.
Did Not Refer to Gill.
Mr.. Barrett denied that he told
the congressional committee yester-
day that he informed Mr.. Gill OF
anything about the brains" of a
safe-cracking gang operating from
the District Jail.
1t was Ray L. Huff, welfare di-
rector, and Claude o. Botkin, resi-
dent superintendent, but not Mr..
Gill, to whom Inspector Barrett re-
ported that guard was smuggling
letters containing instructions on
how to blow safes for a prisoner
the detective chief said.
Mr.. Barrett said that as early as
September he told Mr.. Huff and Mr.
Botkin about the safe cracker op-
Grating from the jail, but that moth
ing was ever done about it. Mr.

never was told anything about the
situation and accused Mr.. Huff ano
Mr.. Botkin of sitting on the in

The only surprising thing about Grant is
his voice For such big man. it is very
small voice 1t is voice with a strange
accent that has in it elements of Bristol
England, where he was born; Hollywood
where he has spent Is years, and Brooklyn
where he has probably never been
Grant is very easy man to shoot the
breeze with. During the next halt hour
we learned that he never wears garters has
no hobbies. used to run haberdashery shop
in New York likes to talk about the great
clowns with whom he played in vaudeville,
would like to own myna bird, never gets
around to answering letters. wouldn't like
to be a farmer. likes blondes, can't cook
likes brunettes. never argues with traffic
cop. likes redheads, goes to the fights pretty
often and used to funk math regularly.
He Likes 1t There
MIR. GRANT began to emerge as really
rare character - an actor who likes Holly
wood. Almost everyone from the movie mills
with whom we've talked lately has some
large grippe against the land of milk and
honeys. They are incensed at the stupidity
of directors or the parts they have been get
ting. They complain of being typed or of
the commercial attitude of front office
biggies. Not so. Cary. He likes it there.
Perhaps this is because Cary Grant is as
much businessman as actor. And despite
the fact that he has been prominent men,
Der of Americas most adored profession
since 1887 when he got his first starring part
in The Awful Truth" Cary is still capable
of a bit of hero worship of his own.
The people whom Cary admlres most and
with whom he likes best to hobnob are the
platinum-crusted ladies and dollar heavy
men of society and big business, From where
he sits in Hollywood's celebrity circle, he
has seen that the really important person is
not the star nor the director but the pro-
ducer, the owner, the dollar man.
Large profits, however are very minor
consideration to Cary Like almost any
movie star he has made huge sums of money.
His hero worship" stems from other causes.
In his youth, when he was the stilt-walklng,
runaway son of small-town English work

Consultation On Cary
BY JACK sIIER AND JOHN KEATINC

The writers got a l3-year-old
experts opinion on Grant. They
didn't like her ideas so they
went to see for themselves
TARY GRANT has been face in the movies
" for we'll over a decade. He arrived in
Hollywood in 1881, two years before Patricia
Lynch was born. Pat lives next door to us
and we mention her because she is praCtl
cally mesmerlzed by movie magazines and
is our expert on the affairs of the stars.
The 13-year old Pat was aghast when we
told her we were going to interview Cary
Grant.
What do you want to do that for?" she
said, pulling up her bobby sox. He's too
old. Why don't you interview Van Johnson?'
Brushing Pats prejudiced protest aside,
we went to see the ancient Cary Grant.
When we entered his hotel suite the AZ
year-old Grant was zooming around the
room with the energy Of one of the Marx
brothers. He was singing Il Can't Get
Started With YOU" answering the tele-
phone and tipping bellboy all at once.
He hung up the phone. 1t rang again, the
doorbell rang.
Hello" Grant said to us. "A guy could
make fortune with a hot-dog stand in
place like this" He said Hello" into the
telephone and yelled Come in at the door
A different bellboy came in.
After things quieted down, we all sat and
smiled at each other.
Evening star., 1946-08-04
Smiles Often

GARY GRANT looks exactly like guy you'd
expect to meet if you expected to meet Cary
Grant That cleft in his chin is so deep it
looks like a scar. When he smiles, which he
does often, he has dlmples that are equally
as deep He is an inch over six feet tall,
weighs about 100 pounds, has broad shoul-
ders and lots of very black, shiny hair.
Cary also appears to be all the things he
is in the movies - debonaiI, charming,
sophisticated, good-natured. Once called
the best dressed man in Hollywood, he was,
to u.s. the best dressed man we'd seen since
slipping out of the Army's tan togas.

ONE NElGHBOR TELLS ANOTHER,
and so the word goes round: All
sweet tastes just wonderful .. so
delicate, so natural. It's perfect
on hot vegetables and breads, and
l use it in all my cooking" All
sweet, you see, is true farm
product made from clear rich
food oils blended with cultured
pasteurized skim milk. There's
nothing artificial about this flavor.

And so millions are switching
to Allsweet.
FINE NUTRITION. Allsweet is rich
in food energy. And you can count
on it for essential Vitamin A. Ev-
cry pound supplies at least $1,000
units. Because delicious Allsweet
is first choice with millions of
families, your dealer may not
always have it. But keep on the
lookout; always ask for Allsweet.
