Dog With Measles
Upsets Film Grew

HOLLYWOOD-It was just a
spotted dog, slipping into a stu
dio and coming onto a set where
they were making a Columbia
picture, Rusty Saves a Life. "
But it couldn't have caused
more hullabaloo if it had been
an atom bomb.
The reason was simple. The
Rusty" of the picture is a dog,
a German shepherd. He was due
to come out before the camera
at the moment the spotted dog
came out. And just the day be-
fore one of the boys in the COM

Many of our organized
workers have been h o o d.
winked, in the last several
weeks, on the cost of living.
They have been affected very
little by price decline. The
pay check does not stretch
much further than it ever did
and there had to be an ex-
cellent stretching to barely
cover expenses.
Price decline, as of now, is
-Rostly newspaper talk. 1t is a
sly way of heading off another
wage increase demand that is
badly needed by the average
worker. 1t is not comforting to
find some workers doubling the
need for a fourth round of wage
increases. Some workers are
looking too strongly at news
paper reports and not strongly
enough at their expenses.
If rent control is lost, or a
weak bill is passed i'll Congress,
so that the law can be easily
circumvented, rents will go up
with bound, Multitudes of To-
ledo workers will be hurt. If
rent does go up, many now who
think the cost of living has de-
clined, will have a different
opinion. In the absence of effec-
tive rent control it is highly
possible some rent may double.
AThe average worker cannot af-
Dd to pay more rent. His wages

refused d mt housing at a
decent price on one side and
threatened with a rent increase
on the other. The culprit in both
is the same - the real
estate lobbies, both nationally
and in the state.
There are instances of land
lords taking a beating under the
present rent control law but con-
tinuance of the law tips the scale
heavily in favor of the renter.
The real estate lobby at times
acts pretty nasty and bold. They
hold the worker in disdain and
scorn. The Ohio CIO Council
Legislative News Letter" quotes
a typical real estate lobbyist
statement while discussing hous-
ing: "Tve seen real happy
families living in mud huts. Why
do we have to be so altruiStic
and put these people in homes
of quality they never hoped to
reach?" This is their attitude,
IN many instances, on public
housin and slum clearance.
How could one exepct an under
standing attitude on the part of
real estate lobbies on the ques-
ton of rent control.
l, too, have seen many happy
pepole, not necessarily in mud
huts, but in circumstances less
fortunate than the average. But
their happiness came from with
in and not from without.
1t is necessary that none of us
be misled on the so-called "cost
of living decline" Where would
you go if you had your rent in
creased substantially?

Well, to a great degree that is
simply idle chatter, and a peru
sal of studio talent lists does lit
tie to Substantiate it. In Holly
wood the Cinderella story is an
oft told tale. 1t usually doesn't
take too long for movie moguls
to decide whether a person is
star material or not.
Veronica Lake is prime eX-
ample. After one or two false
starts under another name, the
.peekaboo beauty was signed by
Paramount in 1910. She was
given a secondary Star role in
her first film, II Wanted Wings"
and she's sustained that starring
status ever since.
Joan Caulfield was starred in
her initial picture, too. But prior
to making miss Susie Slagle's"
Joan had already made her mark
on Broadway. So had John Lund,
who made the marquee in his
film debut, "To Each His Own. +"
On the other hand, some stars
have come up the hard way, via
low budget epics or small roles.
Audrey Totter made eight films
her first year in Hollywood. But
by the time she'd completed the
eighth, Lady in the Lake." she.
was a star. She recently COM.
pleted her top role to date, a CO.

She celebrated her goth birthday
while making Nov and For
ever"
Sonny Tufts was given star
billing in his second film. His
role as Kansas in $50 Proudly
We Hail" brought him immedi-
ately public sympathy, and he
was starred in his next picture.
Larry Parks owes his Stardom to
THE Jolson Story" though he
did make a few films prior to
that.
These are the stories we like
to cite. These are the people pos
sessed of starring potential in
the opinion of the producers.
These are the successes.
These are the minority, too.
For every success there have
been a thousand failures, a thou

Stunt Man Lives
To Become Actor

HOLLYWOOD.-Movie pro-
ducers who have been using
handsome young Jacques O'Ma-
honey as a stunt man must find
someone else from now on.
Jacques has become an actor.
First, Columbia used him for
a speaking role in "The Great
Manhunt," in which his work so
impressed Armand Schaefer,
president of Gene Autry Produc-
ton, and Autry, that they
promptly signed him for Rim
of the Canyon" Autry's next
Columbia starrer.
O'Mahoney, former college
athletic hero, will have a heavy
lead in rim of the Canyon, and
with Autry behind him, is off to
a fine start in his new career.

Property Men Now
Are Making Trees

HOLLYWOOD-A new type
of tree for jungle pictures is a
bout to save Hollywood a lot of
money.
The tree is made of Osnaburg
cloth similar to that used by the
camouflage divisions of the Arm
ed Services during the war, and
is dipped in laminak to make it
rigid. Thus a hollow trunk can
eb built, 40 feet high and eight
feet in diameter, but with the
actual outer shell no thicker
than mans finger.
The first trees of this type will
be seen in producer-director AL

Wardrobe Headache

bias "Jolson Sings Again" Lar,
ry Parks has forty-five changes
of costume and William Demar-
est has thirty-five.
The two actors had even more
changes in the first Jolson pic
ture, 'The Jolson Story"
The first picture covered a
larger span of years in Jolson's
life.
Strangely enough, Ludwig Do
nath, as Jolson'S father, is unaf-
fected by this tremendous turn
over of clothes, because in his
role as the kindly old Cantor, the
proper dress is always a black
suit and a black fedora.

hostility and fear. The price
of brotherhood is the creation
s a society of abundance and
freedom for all, in which only
the peddlers of bigotry will be
unemployed.
On the other hand, when the
CIO demands higher wages with

and social security program,
when labor demands these it is.
demanding brotherhood, because
only through solidarity can these.
objectives be won and held.
Realizing that the task is two
fold-the problem of creating.
the m terial foundations of
brotherhood being insoluble un-.
less men can achieve solidarity
for the purpose of reaching their.
economic and social goals-theI
oW-CIO has resolved to wage
the two-front fight. We fight for.
fair employment at the same
time that we fight for full en-
ployment. We have established
a Fair Practices and Anti-Dis-
elimination Department in our.
union, because we know that it
is senseless to hope for a greater
measure of cooperation and So
cial justice in society at large if
we cannot put our own house
and our own industry in order.
The UAW Fair Practices De
partment was established out of
the same conviction that led to
the birth of the union itself: the
conviction that democracy will
die if it must feed on words
alone. The leaders of American
industry have too often been
long on words about the free
way of life, short on perform
,hce designed to make economic
democracy a reality in the every
day lives of working men and
women. About 1886 the auto
workers, the steel workers, the
rubber workers, and the electri- .
cal workers and others matched
the words against the perform
ance and found something miss
ing. They supplied that missing
element: organization, solidarity
to those who toll in pursuit of
common goals.
Determined To Pay Price
We must have the same prac-
teal action against discrimina-
ton and bigotry. There can bel
no real brotherhood in society
dedicated to the proposition that
the selfish pursuit of private
ends can solve our common
Ablem. We can't get brother
Nod just by setting aside a week
or century to talk about it.
We can't get brotherhood by
looking around for it as if we'd
lost a cuff-link. We have to
build the kind of society in which
men cooperate naturally, and not
merely because they regard "tol-
erance" as their good deed for
the day.
We could get brotherhood {
without making a single speech s
by taking those specific actions {
that cry out to be taken. Does \
a veteran need a house? Does a /
Negro need a job? Does a Jew
need refuge? Build the house,
. Dovide the job, offer the refuge. 1
