Mitchell give island 1893 to the old
sailor, he went even further. He
gave him map of the st. Lawrence
River to help him locate Florence.
According to the song, Arthur goes
island hopping in rowboat looking

HOLLYWOOD.-Every girl should
try to keep her complexion clean
and sparkling at all times. And
there is nothing better for this than
plenty of soap and water.
The first thing in the morning and
the last thing at night, the face and
neck should be scrubbed thoroughly
with a soft complexion brush. Then
to close the pores, apply o cool
soothing astringent.
Since I don't wear any makeup
other than lipstick, keep my skin
protected with light coating of day
cream. This not only keeps it free
from dirt particles in the air, but it
induces softness and prevents
dryness.
Once q week it Is q good idea to
apply a face pack and leave 1t on
while taking a bath. It makes the
skin very soft and clears away any
impurities.
While working on a picture, as ]
am now in MGM's "A Date With
Judy" I take special care OF my
skin because Of the daily use OF
makeup necessary for photo
graphing.

Taft & Hartley Disagree Over Changing Law

Washington (LPA)-No sooner had Sen. Robert A. Taft (R., Ohio) finished telling reporters that no changes are contemplated in the Taft Hartley Act this year, than up bobbed his little pal Rep. Fred Hartley (R., N.J.) to say that he wanted to tighten it up."
 The senior partner in the team said he didn't think that any changes would be made in the law by the Both Congress, although he is willing to vote for an amendment to permit union papers to carry pO- litical endorsements so long as the papers go only to the regular sub- scription lists.
 But Hartley isn't happy. He told a paper salesmen's luncheon that in April he will introduce amendments to the Sherman and Clayton antitrust acts designed to remove exemptions that have been accorded to labor unions. Hartley hopes by this device to give the federal government power to break any strike which affects interstate commerce, on the grounds that it is conspiracy in restraint of trade.
 The New Jersey union hater is also chagrined over the failure of Congress to include in the Omni- bus anti-uniOn bill which bears his name a strong enough anti-picket- ing provision ''tO make it federal offense for union to prevent a worker from going to his job if he wants to work.
 Both of these provisions were em- bodied in Hartley's original sugges- tions, he said, but they were dropped from the Taft-Hartley bill to make it possible to round up enough votes in the Senate to override President Tru- mans veto. Now Hartley plans to in troduce them as separate bills If he does they will first come before the 14-member Joint Committee of Con- gress which watches over the Taft Hartley law.

quality list of AZ brands. And Dem- ing's and Libby's Red Alaska Sock eye, both having good flavor and appearance, each cost only 59c for a l lb can. The top grades of sal- mon are generally accepted as Chi nook and SOckeye, followed by COhO, Pink and Chum, in that or- der. But there is good and poor quality within each group. The food value of salmon (protein, vitamins and minerals) is high regardless of grade. Canned salmon can make an excellent meat substitute.
 WATER SOFTENERS
 Consumers Union tests on water softeners give first place to Calgon, a rather expensive softening agent which forms neither precipitation nor curd. It IS the curd, caused by the reaction of soap and the minerals i'll hard wa ter, which is responsible for the ring around the bathtub and the gray ap- pearance of white fabrics Other soft eners rated Acceptable and safe for hands and clothes include Puro and Coop Househald Cleaner. Bright Sail Washing Sal Soda and Sof Wash, though more economical than the others, are recommended with reser- vations, since they are rather harsh. Where water is hard, GU recommends that synthetic detergents be substi- tuted for soap for washing woolens, and dishes, and for shampooing the hair.

TELEVISION RECEIVERS

TelevisiOn is still in its infancy with regard to quality of receivers, available ability of service and quail ity of programs, Consumers Union points out in the January issue of Consumer Reports. But if you live in an area where reception is avail able, if you like to watch sports and if you don't mind investing pretty heavily in set that may be obsolete within a few years, you may want to buy televisiOn re- ceiver.
 Tests of seven show most of them Acceptable by today's necessarily len tent standards but proper installation and maintenance are at least as inn portant as the quality of the sets them selves. Among the Acceptable receiv- CTS were RIGA GIFTS ($25O plus in stallation), AK 5H inch picture; RIGA 721TS ($326 plus installation), RIGA 630TS ($377.60 plus installation) ], Emerson 545 ($375 plus installation) land Philco 48-1000 ($395 plus install lation), all having 6x8 inch pictures.
 CANNED SALMON
 High price does not always mean high quality in canned salmon, re- s6lts of Consumers Union tests pulp lished in the January Consumer Reports reveal. One brand, the cost of which came to $l.34 a pound, stood third from the bottom in the
