Casting department: The drama
department can prove that plays
pursue actresses. The play is The
Glass Menagerie' and the actress
is Violet Hemming who. in prl-
vate life, is Mrs. Bennett Champ
Clark.
The pursuit began three sum-
mers ago with a hasty call from
Warner Bros. New York Office.
We're looking for Violet Hem
ming to talk to her about The
Glass Menagerie,' -" Warmers man
(irnDortant tVne) said
You've come to the right town
and her telephone number is
said the drama department which
gives out actresses telephone
numbers only when the plays are
as big as The Glass Menagerie." F"
Miss Hemming had other
things to do, did not believe in
her Southern accent, etc, so moth
ing came of the deal.
Last Saturday the telephone
rang again.
This time Arena Stage was on
the telephone.
DO you think we could induce
Violet Hemming to play The
Glass Menagerie'?" the voice
asked.
1T would be fine if you could,
but how would we know? Why
don't you call Miss Hemming"
the drama department backed off.
After some further converSa-
ton during which both parties
agreed Miss Hemming probably
would be a fine Amanda. and
one the town would be delighted
to see, the Arena Stage man
hung up.
1t turns out that Miss Hemming
still is otherwise booked and that
she still distrusts her Southern
accent and that it looks now
as if she never will play Amanda
IN The Glass Menagerie."

Title department: There's no
end to the alterations in movie
title departments. Today's change
is The Miami Story" to The
Las Vegas" story by RKO. The
studio doesn't say why leaving
one to conjecture that Miami is
shy about something that Las
Vegas doesn't mind having dealt
with in movie.
1t creates a little suspense
which probably will get lost in
the larger suspenses of living
these days.

four Communists to its Parlia-
ment of 165.
The authority of the federal
government was permitted to ex-
tend over the Russian-o occupied
Eastern provinces of Burgenland
and lower Austria. The effect
was. and is, that local Austrian
authorities, including the policy,
are responsible. not to the Rus
slams. but to the non-Communist
government in Vienna.
So far. no visible effort has been
made to split the country politi-
cally. Economically. however. the
Russians have created a state
within a state. They have taken
over property owned by the Ger
mans during the Nazi occupation
and run it on principles alien to
the rest of the economy.
The Russian-owned factories
amount to one-fifth Of Austria S
entire industrial potential. Sixty
per cent of Austria's yearly pro-
duction of 1,450,000 tons of oil
goes to Russia.
IDefenses Sitter
Militarily Western troops in
Austria are weak. There are no
more than $4,000 Western soldiers
in the American, British and
French zones. The British have
one airplane. The Americans have
not many more. The French have
gliders.
The Russians, on the other
hand, have $4,000 troops in their
zone alone. Behind them are about
six Russian divisions in Hungary
Romania and Bulgaria.
In the event of war, Russian
troops in Austria are in a strate-
gically good position to strike in
two directions. First, along the
Danube River valley, north Of the
Alps toward Munich to link up
with troops in Germany. Second,
they can strike southwest toward
Trieste.
But that would be part of a big
war. and there is still no indica-
ton the Russians want thai

and artillery in East Germany In
l949. In West Germany the
Allies have enlisted $4,000 Ger
mans during the past year for
labor service units. In effect,
these are auxiliary troops, capable
Iof performing many supply and
communication tasks for Allied
divisions.
BY quietly organizing this Ger
man labor service, Allied generals
cut international red tape They
have collected the first install
ment of German manpower for
the Vests defense.
Those are some OF the things
that have been done in Germany
Neighboring Austria is a problem
unto itself; it is not likely to be
the first object of a direct attack
by Soviet troops. but it could be
the springboard for sweep
toward Trieste. in any full-scale
action against Tito's Yugoslavia.
Geographically. Austria
mountainous territory controls all
East West routes south of Ger
many and all the North-South
routes of Central Europe.
AS fortune would have it, Aus
tria is an almost totally pro-
Western country despite its his
toric commercial links with the
East. 1t is 80 per cent Catholic
and, though surrounded on three
sides by Communist neighbors, is
95 per cent anti-Communist.
iAustria's Situation
Austria's unWanted mission in
TOO years of history has been to
keep back from Western christen-
dom the hordes of invaders from
the East. Today, it has no army
of its own. 1t is occupied by
-four elephants in a small boat"
as it's late President described the
Allied occupation.
This occupation by the United
States, Russia, France and Britain
makes Austria a contradictory
point for either war or peace.
At the end of World War II,
the Russians made what now ap-
pears to be a political error. In
November, 1945, they permitted
general elections for federal gov
ernment. Austria elected only
