close to hilarious.
The goth Century-Fox produc'
tion which sheds such a humorous
light on at least one small sidt
Of war is based upon an anecdots
which Washington's John w
Hazard wrote some time ago fol
the New Yorker magazine. Film
rights were purchased before the
ink was dry on the first proofs o1
the story, genuinely f1atterins
commentary on goth C-Fs literary
taste.
Somebody out there knows q
joke when he reads 1t even when
1t is not actually like all other
jokes.
Cooper's subdued style lifts il
to the level of something special
in screen comedy by carrying it
artfully across stretches of def
mite bog.
Hazards original piece was
called "The U.S.S. Teakettle. u
This was the nickname of a ludi-
crous small ship and the woefully
embarrassed crew that put her
through series of tests with a
special type of steam powerplant
The idea was that if the expert
mental steam engine could be
made to work, sub chasers would
be 10 knots faster.
If it did not work, which it die
not for endless trial runs, there
was always the prospect that the
crew would be blown to Hades, be-
come a sitting duck for an enemy
submarine, or be left to sit out
the war in some wave trough of
the coast of Virginia.
AZ compared with the Teakettle
the Kom-Tiki of recent literary
fame was as safe as a ships model
in naval museum.
X X
What made the story of the
Teakettle more splendidly ridicu-
lous than ever was it's crew, OF
which Cooper plays the hapless
skipper, Being sensible. in its
tmilitary-minded way, the Navy
naturally could not bother to as
semble a seaworthy crew for the
Teakettle tests. It took them
job lot, from the civilian enlis-
tees, officers and men. These
could not have been more flabber-
gasted by their assignment than
a corner loafer suddenly asked to
work out a dispersal plan for
Government personnel in Wash
ington.
Most of the action of the film
directed by Henry Hathaway is
confined to the U. S. S. 1168, the
ships serial number. This is as
it should be for no place could
be funnier than any corner of this
desperately mismanned vessel, es-
pecially in her engine room.

In the Navy Now both human
and hilarious. Oddly enough, they
Iare able to keep the story moving
when the Teakettle is firmly re-
fusing to bulge without a tow
rope. This requires the occasional
injection of bits of bushes made
familiar by other films, but these
are handled well.
Even the scripts romantic cliche,
in which Jane Greer plays the
Wave wife of Skipper Cooper, is
treated with some degree of fresh
ness, This is quite a test, bwt one
fitting for the picture which
reaches such a dizzily comic cli-
max as this one. In this final Sc
|quence, the Teakettle not only runs
at breakneck speed but freezes her
throttles at the wide open posi-
ton. with the threat of running
ashore as far inland as, say Ohio.
The Palace picture could well be
your dish of tea this week end,
or maybe next, unless you have
something irresistibly special on.

4 States Defeat
Wage-hour Laws

Washington (LPA)- Proposals
for new state wage-hour laws pat
termed after the Federal Fair Labor
Standards Act have been rejected
by the legislatures of Idaho, Indi-
ana, North Carolina, and Wyom-
ing. In Maine, the state Legislative
research committee has advised
against such measure.
Bills proposing new or broaden
ed regulation of wages and hours
of workers not employed in inter-
state commerce were pending in
Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan,
New Jersey, New Mexico, Pennsy-
lvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee,
and Wisconsin.
The bill rejected in Idaho would
have established a 60-cent hourly
minimum, an eight-hour day and a
4S-hour week. The Indiana propos-
ais called for a 75-cent wage and
a 44-hour week. The Wyoming bill
would have set 75-cent minimum
wage. In North Carolina 75-cent,
40-hour week legislation had the
backing of Governor Scott, but was
defeated.

age family budget" he said,
"this action by the last Con-
gress struck a mortal blow
against any effective effort to
protect the public from inflat-
ed prices"
The AFL chief said that if any
government officials were really
in doubt as to why labor was dis
turbed about the conduct of the
stabilization program, the first and
most important answer was high
prices. He listed the others in this
order: Lack of effective rent con-
troll, wage income, taxes, man.
power and representation in de-
fense agencies. Regulation of
"civilian manpower," he added,
should be left in the Department
of Labor.
Says Big Biz is Dominant
Green strongly reiterated labor's
view that big business dominates
the whole defense mobilization pro-
gram, from top to bottom and en-
phasized that teamwork was need
ed to meet the national emergency.
"Such teamwork" he said in
ending his talk, "must be built
upon public confidence. Labor can
have no confidence in defense
agencies which are completely dom
mated by big business represent
atives who see only the big busi-
ness point of view.
"The representation hitherto ac-
corded to labor was entirely made
quate and inconsequential. 1t con-
stituted merely a window dressing.
Not a single decision made by the
defense stabilization agencies has
reflected the views Of labor. Every
decision bears the indelible stamp
Of big business"
Green added that present polio
les must be changed and said:
"We hope that our government
will promptly respond to public de-
mand and re-establish the defense
mobilization program on a firm
and democratic basis Of equality Of
sacrifice for all Americans"
