Under the census classification
the mother of 10 children is
termed unproductive. 1t is evil
dent that for the sociologist term
so used by the economist take on
a broader meaning, and that as
productive we must consider not
merely the mother but any wo-
man or any man who by activity,
by expenditure of energy, by
carrying on" helps to maintain
or to advance the life of society.
That organization which we call
society consists of a vast series
Of exturbede by the detection,
the genuine unproductiveness of
its units, so that whoever will not
act for society must in a sense
be considered a destructive influ-
ence.
In this light we see that pro-
ductiveness has very little to do
with wages, and that both in the
gainfully occupied group and in
the group Of those who work for
nothing are to be found the pro
ducers and the non-producers.
There are men, too, Unjust be
remembered, whodo the unpaio
work of the world, but due tc
economic and cultural conditions
of slow growth and long standing
their numbers are much smaller
than those of the women who worl
for nothing.
Considering that women VIII,
work for nothing work withou
the objective and the incentive
Of any of the accustomed re
wards of society, money, fame o:

they work?

BOP HOPE WITH

AT 10Th CENTURY

Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour,
teamed in My Favorite Brunette"
are at the Goth Century in a fun
and thrill picture.
OF course, Miss Lamour thought
Bob was someone else, private de-
tective, instead of the baby pho
tographer he really is the mirth
and murder riot. She is in a highly
excited state when she mistakes
Hope for the sleuth in the next Of
flee, and engages him to track down
her missing uncle. She also gives
Hope map to Safeguard with his
life" and the phrase becomes too
much of a reality before long.
A vicious gang of foreign agents
are bent on relieving Hope of the
chart, the key to secret uranium
m ne. Against their knives, guns
and fists, Bob has only his rapier-
like wit which he uses with machine
gun rapidity. While this convulses
the audience, Hopes enemies are
entirely without sense of humor.
They finally frame him on MUIR
der charge, ana the warden at San
Quentin is aboutf to give him the
works. But Dottie arrives in the nick
of time with the evidence of Hopes
innocence. and the film, as well it
should, ends on gay note.

EXCITING STORY
NOW ON SCREEN,
CAPITOL THEATRE

Exceeding the boldest flights OF
fancy of the fiction writer, yet
firmly grounded in sober fact, CO.
! lumbias ITO the Ends of the Earth"
starring Dick Powell and Signe Has
so, arrived at the Capitol Theatre
yesterday and proved to be one OF
the outstanding films of the year
Its lurid tale of violence, intrigue
and death, set in the vivid and eX-
otto locales of the far corners OF
the earth, is packed with absorbing
entertainment from start to finish.
The exciting, and frequently
shocking story is based on hitherto
secret files of the u S. Treasury
land its Bureaus of Narcotics, Gus
toms and Coast Guard. 1t tells Of
Powell as a government agent on
the trail of ruthless lawbreak
!, 1t reveals how this two-fisted opc:-
alive, in a brush with unknown
enemies in Shanghai, comes to e"ios
with worldwide crime ring trading
in contraband.
Cairo, Beyrcath and Havana are
strands in the finely spun network
of the criminal syndicate Powell
shrewdly permits contraband to slip
through the fingers of law err
forcement agents for he is playing
for bigger game: the archcriminal
of the gang. A rousing climax CAPS
the actionful film on a ship bound
for New York and the gigantic
ring that covered the globe is round
ed up.
In rortraying the government
operative, Powell gives one OF the
notable performances of his Career
Shrewd, resourceful and l,,kiry
every inch the part, he is the per-
conification of daring. Miss Hasso
strikes romantic note in playing
an American girl in China STEPPED
in mystery.
