War Or Peace" Up To India

LYNDON, Ep-The British goy- ernment Left squsrly up 10 feuo- ing Hindu and Moslem leaders to- day the question of whether India intends to win independence in bloody civil war or through peace ful negotiations by the time Bri- tain ends her reign over the rich suo-continent IS months later.
 Prime Minister Attlee told the world yesterday that Britain in lenGs 10 pull out of India by June, -343, and al same time ap- pointed Admir-. lord Mountbat- .en, a great grandson of inc first British empress of India, as vice roy 10 Lquidate 200 years of Brit igh rule.
 Some empire-minded co1serva- tives and sections of the British press direly predicted that a bloody struggle for power in India would result from Britain's withdrawal.
 Lord Templewood-Sir SamIel Hoare before he became a peer presented a motion last night de- claring that the end Of British rule "i is likely 10 imperil the peace ani prosperity Of India"
 
 If TempleWood's motion-which amounts to a vote of censure of thn Labor gOVernment-is pushed to vote, it probably will pass in the dominated House O. Lords, but Attlee is sure of his solid Labor majority in the all important Commons. which pre- V:ously had voted approval of the idea of freedom for India.

Lana Turner has to return to

have to dye her hair dark again,
because that's the way she had it

she has to do any added scenes for
"Cass Timberlane," she'll revert to
blond tresses. A movie stars hair

ms, which opens mere InurSday at
is intimated in his reaction to the
suggestion that the English now are
making better pictures than Holly
wccd. He feels that Englands
movie studios have MADE huge prog
ress in the last seven or eight years,
but he remains keen to make his
first screen play in America.
AS to the defects Of earlier Brit
ish pictures, Mills has an abrupt
estimate on that score. He puts it
down-or he says it and you put
it doWn-to the fact that the Eng
lish industry was overrun at the
time by 'phony" foreign directors.
The war, he thinks, drove this type
and their dreary ideas for good pic
lures out of business; at least out of
the English movie business.
Mills regards that as a distinct
blessing.
Mills is the fastest rising young
actor in the British studios. His
place among the stars there is
equivalent to that occupied by
Gregory Peck and Dana Andrews in
this country.
His early success. however, was
far from the kind that is usually
labeled crashing"
He began his career as a clerk
in the London Corn Exchange,
which had been founded by his
grandfather. All that experience
taught him, however, was that he
was not the clerk type. At the END
of three years, he found himself
with savings of fYe pounds, and
yen to become an actor in Lon
don.
When the money ran out and
producers failed to share Mills en-
thusiasm for being an actor, he
had to get another job that was
