Housework wears Mrs. v. to q

I never seem to finish"
She gave me details. A small

difficulties.
What does your husband do?"
'He owns a small neighbor-

that he sends out all his bills
written in a quill pen, and dis
patches a messenger with a note
when necessary. He doesn't know
the telephone was invented"
She smiled. Hes up-to-th

But you aren't" I assured her.
Most home-makers are still do
ing the job the way their great
grandmothers did in a log cabin.
It isn't so much the lack of labor
saving devices. It's the lack Of
planning and organizing the daily
work. If you went at this the way
that engineers lay out an assembly
line to manufacture automobiles,
you might save half your time,
effort, and fatigue"

to do jobs most easily?"

"Dishwashing is the job I most
despise." Mrs. v. commented.
There are many studies of
that. Doing the job from right to
left is easier than from left to

A pair Of hotshot young pro-

Their recent deal with Howard
Hughes, which gives than a $5C
million bankroll to make so films
in five years, is the envy Of other
picture executives.
Wald explained how they're
solving the story problem:
First of all, you have to know
that we intend to make pictures
about the vast area that lies be-
tween New York and Hollywood
and is really the American scene
We want stories of people and
places that are symbolic of Amer
lea.
There are five sources: Books,
plays. originals, magazines and
newspapers. In one sense, news
papers are the primary source of
them all. But, unfortunately, you

CHEEKY little Billie, widow of the

Gladys Cooper. once known as

Miss Cowl was suffering from her

Bette Davis. It's a characterize
ton that will linger long in the
memory of moviegoerS.

also watch for Louise Beavers,
one of Hollywood's truly great
Negro actresses. She's been be-

years.
Since Florence Bates made her
screen debut in "Rebecca," she
has contributed many memorable

the casting directors.

There are perhaps a dozen

Assault Case Fugitive
Believed Dead Since
Fall, Held in Texas
By the Associoted Press


DALLAS. Tex. Mar. 4.-The
FBI said today a man under a
rape indictment at Erie, Pa, and
mourned as dead last fall, has
been arrested here.
Scott s. Alden, FBI agent in
charge Of the Dallas district, said
the man is Clyde Orlando Brown,
Il, indicted September l at Erie.
Mr.. Alden said after Browns
indictment he was released on
$4,000 bond; that few days
later he went fishing on Lake Erie,
and on the following morning his
boat washed ashore with his hat,
jacket and fishing equipment in
it. His automobile still was
parked at the fishing dock.
The FBI agent said Browns
family mourned him as dead and
allowed a finance company to re-
possess his car.
Brown was arrested last night
on a fugitive warrant. He was
arraigned today before United
States Commissioner w. Madden
Hill and held under $4,000 bond.
Mr.. Alden said Brown denied
his guilt, but admitted his identity
and said he was the subject of
the rape charge at Erie.
Officials at Erie said Brown was
indicted on a charge of Turing an
eight-year-old girl into his car,
driving to an isolated spot and
raping her. The child was badly
injured and hospitalized for two
weeks after surgery,
