I Mack got back to his early days
Mr.. Mack, the man who inherited
radios and now television's "Orig.
inal Amateur Hour" from Major
Bowes, was taking a breather in
the midst of lining up the ANA
teur Hour" which will be per-
formed at Constitution Hall
Thursday to launch the American
Heart Association drive.
Mr.. Mack has provided an entry
into show business for a number
of people. so it seemed only fair
to ask how he got into it himself.
1t turned out to have been some
years ago, when he was a young
man in Denver. Along with sew
eral other young musicians, he
got talked into joining a jazz band
which choir leader thought it
would be a good idea at the time
to organize.
The boys rehearsed for weeks,
finally got repertoire of six or
seven tunes of the day which they
could play in reasonable unison,
and set out for a theater date in
San Francisco. Since they were
billed as a cowboy band. and

people with professional expert

but the screening process is a
strict one.
There are a lot of struggling
professional acts who need help

says, "but we'd have to change

you to put theater units together,
the friend told Mr.. Mack.
Don't be silly" said Mr.. Mack.
There isn't any vaudeville and
who would sit and listen to a
bunch of amateurs on the radio?"
Finally. however, he was con-
vinced, joined Major Bowes and
learned to be kind to amateurs.
Watching them struggle, some
times futilely, to break into o

Well, the band finally made II
to the theater, in spite of the
horses. They couldn't stay for
second week. though, when they
were asked. They tried, but none
OF them could read enough music
to learn six new tunes in that
time.
This led Mr.. Mack to winding up
broke and hungry in Los Angeles
where the natives displayed an
enthusiastic apathy toward his
musical talents. In his despera-
ton he was about to become a
haberdashery clerk when the need
for a dance band was expressed
by an establishment in Tia Juana
Mr.. Mack thought of the race
track and the luxuriant life at
lush tropical resort and cast
security to the winds.
When he got to Tia Juana,
though, he almost turned around
and came back to sell neckties.
The lush resort was broken down

him quite shock when he walked
in there the first time. Later,
he admits. most of the customers
turned out to be agreeable types
and he got to know several pick

company.
That's where Donnelly James of

versation. He was the only mem

name Mr.. Mack could recall off

didn't know it was there, however
until some time later when he
joined Major Bowes.
Before this, he achieved a great
deal OF success on his own. He
played with number of bands
and, after Paul Ash started a
trend by announcing vaudeville
act instead of letting a sign in
troduce it, Mr.. Mack became a
theater master of ceremonies. One
OF the better ones. too.
Then one day there was a de-
preston. He had no job, no
money on account of a bank
crash, a wife, $50 and a Cadillac
he couldn't bring around from the
garage for $50. He got back into
the band business, but he was

Death for Traitors
Returns 10 Soviet
BY the Asseeiofsd Press

MOSCOW. Jan. 13.-The death
penalty returned yesterday in
Soviet Russia after an absence
Of almost two years.
The local press published an
edict by the Presidium of the
Supreme Soviet decreeing revival
OF the penalty for traitors to the
homeland. spies and saboteurs. ;"
For other crimes the death SEN
tence still will not be given.
Speculation at once arose in
London that the return of the
death penalty predicted new
prosecutions similar to the 1887
Moscow treason trials.)
The Presidium abolished capital
punishment on May 26, l947,
because. its edict then said. 1t
was mo longer necessary in peace
time conditions" This, the decree
explained. was because Russia's
World War II victory had demon
strated "the exceptional loyalty of
the entire population of the Soviet
Union to the Soviet Country and
the Soviet Government"
AT the same time" the 1947
Presidium's edict said, "the world
situation during the past period
since the surrender of Germany
and Japan demonstrates that
peace may be regarded as secure

spite Of attempts of aggressive
elements to provoke war"

DR.. Nourse Charges
Fair Deal Spends 10
Purchase Prosperity
BY the Associated Press


RICHMOND, Jan. 13.-Dr. Ed
win G. Nourse charged last night
that the Fair Deal "is trying to
buy another year of prosperity"
with a risky program of unjusti-
fled deficit spending.
The economist, who was Presi-
dent Truman's chief economic ad-
wiser for three years until his re-
cent resignation, said Mr.. Truman
re-affirmed policy of papa
knows best-relax."
But, argued DR.. Nourse, the ad-
ministration does not know best,
and the last thing the people
should do is relax.
The former chairman of the
Council of Economic Advisers
warned that the voters should not
be lulled to sleep by a rosy song
of optimism and synthetic pros
perity."
Addressing the Richmond Cham
Der Of Commerce. DR.. Nourse as
serted that every effort should be
bent toward getting the spending
policies out of the red if the Ma
tion is to avoid cracks in it's eco
nomic structure.
DR.. Nourse said the Nation
should be striving toward sur
pluses and building up a cushion
against hard times instead of en-
barking on a budget that admit
tedly would incur an additional
IS 500, 900, 900 deficit.
Il think-and told the Presi-
dent-that the administration has
resorted again to inf1ationary
short CUTS" he said, "and I think
that the deliberate launching of
a program for false prosperity is
grave mistake 3.
And don't think the program
is either sound or progressive"

Report Today Expected
To Show Big Drop in
Winter Wheat Crop
BY the Assoeietsd Press

An Agriculture Department
crop report was expected today
to show that prospects for the
1850 winter wheat crop have de-
clined considerably in recent
weeks because of dry weather.
Last December the department
said a crop of about 885 million
bushels was possible on the basis
of the indicated planted acreage
and crop conditions at that time.
Since then, severe dry weather
has hampered the crops develop
ment in wide areas of the West
ern plains.
BY comparison, last years win
ter wheat harvest was 901 mil
lion bushels and the 10-year
1938-1s4D average was 726 mil
lion bushels.
Even should the winter wheat
prospects drop to an average-size
crop, the country still would have
plenty. In addition to a reserve
Of more than 400 million bushels
from last years supply, there will
be spring wheat crop which
averages 265 million bushels.
Officials estimate that a COM
bined winter-spring crop of bill
lion bushels would cover prospec-
tive domestic and export needs
from this years production. For
eign shipments have been shrink
ing rather sharply from postwar
records. rejecting increased pro-
duction abroad and priced
supplies in some other exporting
areas.
A crop of / billion bushels or
less would virtually eliminate the
possibility Of rigid Government
marketing quotas on the 1851
crop. This years crop is being
grown under voluntary acreage al
lotments.
Officials have said a crop con-
siderably above a billion bushels
