Buildings will never be pro-

private construction firm wouldn't t
take the risk; why should the

Mr.. Tramburg pointed out that,
though the Board Of Public We'll
fare is rated with other cities as
a little above average I'm giving
the best we can with what we
have" the decrease in purchasing
power has increased its problems.
Because Washington Is becom-

We must sometimes go as far as
100 miles outside the city to find
foster homes for children" he
said. "And this is further COM

areas overcrowded school condi-
tions will not permit admission
Of out-of-state pupils"
Mr.. Tramburg recommended
passage Of the Old Age and Sur

Clubs
Film Industry
Proud Of Record,
News Women Told
By Frances Kuhn


Hollywood went on the defen-
sive at the luncheon meeting of
the Women's National Press Club
held yesterday at the Statler
Hotel.
"We don't like the generic term,
Hollywood" Dore Schary, vice
chairman in charge of production
Of Metro Goldwyn- Mayer studios,
told the members of the club, as
he attacked the idea that the mo-
tion picture business is a black
sheep but admitted that much of
its bad reputation is its own fault.
Mr.. Schary was the principal
speaker at the celebrity-studded
luncheon. Movie stars George
Murphy. John Kodiak and Denise
Darcel. all took a bow, as well as
Maj. Gen. A. c. McAuliffe, head of
the Army Chemical Corps, and
Father Hartke of the Catholic
University School of Drama. The
Hollywood group is in Washing
ton for the premiere of Battle
ground" tomorrow night at the
Capitol Theater for which Gen.
eral McAuliffe was the technisal
advisor.
Declaring Hollywood is proud
OF its record as an industry, Mr..
Schary told his listeners that dur
ing the war it was the only indus
try that contributed what it could
without making a profit. Film,
talent, and everything else in the
business were contributed without
cost, he said.
In a defense of Hollywood, the
speaker invited its critics to come
to the movie capital to see the
real story. In the old days."
he said. people thought of show
men as either loose women or
renegades. People still think of
them as staying up all night and
getting terribly drunk"
Hollywood today. he said, is
place where even the highest paid
actors are at their studios at $50
in the morning and work full
day. you can't fool q camera
about your physical condition" MIR.
Schary said, land if the camera
isn't fooled your option is
dropped.
The speaker described his own
Job as keeping him busy from
nine in the morning until mid
night and added: after days
work, I have no inclination or
physical ability to get loaded.
That is typical of the majority Of
Hollywood people"
Mr.. Schary said one of the
things that gives Hollywood a
bad name is its published divorces.
Actually. he declared, the Holly
wood divorce rate is a little low
er than any other community in
the country. The notoriety, he
said, comes from the fact that
more news" names are involved
when a divorce is announced.

people of the motion picture In

its faults, improve its virtues,
challenge its critics and live with
self respect and dignity"
During a question and answer
period, Eric Johnston, president
of the Motion Picture Associa-
ton, who also was a guest. de-
scribed the problem of British
films as "a touchy subject with
the British and the Americans
as we'll" He said that the Brit
ish film industry has tried to ex-
pand too rapidly and has spread
a small amount of talent over a
large number Of pictures.
