ment, for showing movie pro-
ducers how to live with televi-
sion. His tasteful treatment of
movie figures on Toast Of the
Town" also turned out, the pro-
ducers discovered, to be great
publicity for new pictures.
Now the 10 leading film pro-
ducing studios-Allied Artists.
Columbia, MGM, Paramount,
RKO. Republic. Goth Century
Fox, United Artists, Universal
International and Warner
Brothers-will be represented in
the new ABC-MPAA project.
Tentatively titled Hollywood
Parade" the program will in
clude excerpts from current ma
jor screen attractions and per-
sonal appearances by one or
more of their stars. 1t will be
done under the supervision of
Cecil Parker. ABC's western di-
vision program director.
. The formal is not definitely
set yet, but Parker is starting
work this month on the pilot
program" at the ABC TV Center
in Hollywood. 1t has been de-
cided that each of the partici-
pating producers will designate
four films during each 13-week
period from which excerpts will
be available. The network will
have freedom of choice in Sc
lecting these but will cooperate
closely with the recommended
tions Of the producers. A fall
starting date is the aim now.
Some people could have told
the movie-makers a long time
ago what Eric Johnson, MPAA
president, pointed out in the
joint announcement of the prof.
ect. This was that through ABC
television the motion picture in
dustry will enjoy the advantage
of bringing the industry's top
talent into the homes of America
and acquainting the television
audience with the techniques and
entertainment elements of mo-
ton pictures at first hand" In
fewer words. too, they could have
been told.

Production Methods
Held Tagging Behind
Advances by Planes

New military aircraft are show
ing farImore progress than pro-
duction methods in, the United
States. in the opinion OF one of
the Nations leading manufac-
turers.
Roy T. Hurley. vice president
and chairman Of the board Of
Curtiss- Wright Corp, declared
here yesterday afternoon that
the situation may weaken Amer,
lean defenses unless corrected
soon.
Mr.. Hurley told the Advertis-
ing Club of Washington the for
ward surge Of revolutionary new
propulsion types has outstripped
facilities for manufacturing the
planes on quantity basis.
He pointed out that highly
specialized machine tools must
be placed on order now if they
are to be delivered within five
years to turn out the jet, rocket
and ram jet engines now in the
final design or test stage.
Addressing a luncheon meet
ing in celebration of so years of
powered fight, Mr.. Hurley said
aircraft that can meet the test
of modern combat are rapidly be-
coming faster, heavier and more
complicated.
He declared that the stop
and-go procurement policy of
Congress is both too costly and
too slow in an emergency to
meet the country's security needs
in the years to come.
The speaker said no manu-
facturer, however efficient, has
any right to Federal guarantee
of future orders, but that the in
dustry as a whole must be re-
lieved Of the sudden, urgent
build-upss and equally sudden
cutbackS.
Airplanes that could survive in
another war require longer pc
riods between the design and
production stages than current
models. Mr.. Hurley said. He
pointed out that three times
during his active career in avia-
tfon, the industry had been called
upon to build up to costly peaks
without adequate preparation in
advance. These tasks, he said,
were far easier than they can
possibly be in the future.
William Coyle, president of the
ad club and promotion manager
of The Star, paid tribute to the
accomplishments of the Wright
brothers at Kitty Hawk, N. c., SO
years ago and welcomed a num-
ber Of military and civilian avia-
ton leaders who were special
guests at the luncheon.

DENEATH nearly 20 million American roofs
I'D today, major revolution in home living
is under way. Its motto is simple: When you
want something DONE you do it yourself in
your spare time Its range is wide. You can
get in on it by giving yourself permanent
wave or building a new wing on your house
Major objective is to save the cost of some
one else's labor. thereby getting for yourself
something you can't otherwise afford Through
it, a large part of our population is happily on
its way back to the pioneer idea that good
man - or woman is one who can handle
any job that needs to be done.
In the process the business world reports,
the do-it-yourself boom is rapidly developing
into -billon-dollar industry. This is
what's happening:
Do-it-yourself amateurs are buying and
hanging so per cent of the nations wallpaper,
slapping on rs per cent of all the paint.
Last year do-it-yourselfers bought more
than ESQ million square feet of plywood. Re-
tail lumber yards sold four times as much
lumber to amateurs in 1852 as they did in 1910.
. In l94O the total US production of
floor tiles came to $50 million. Last year, sales
to home handymen alone totaled 5000 million.

Next to gain favor was the portable power

ever learn to use or afford to buy. Today there
are well over 100 different kinds of home
power tools to choose from, with nearly 5000
accessories.

JEWISH
DIPLOMACY

Plans to call a special session
of the Actions Committee some
where in Europe to voice the pro-
test of the world Zionist move
ment against the Soviet anti-Jew-
ish policy have been abandoned
Instead, the World Zionist
Organization will be strongly rep
resented at the world conference
of leaders of major Jewish organ
izations which will take place in
the middle of March in a Euro
pean capital and at which the
Moscow policy will be condemned
on behalf of the entire Jewry of
the world Originally, the
conference was to be held in
Switzerland, but it seems that the
Swiss authorities fear that such
parley on Swiss soil might
antagonize Russia Hence,
Jewish Agency leaders who are
organizing this conference are
now busy discussing the matter
with the governments of other
countries By the time these
lines are published it may be
known exactly where the confer
ence will be held i. The Ameri-
can Jewish Committee and the
Agudas Israel organization have
not decided as yet whether to
participate in this conference
The Agudas Israel wants partici-
patton in the conference limited
to the five Jewish non-govern-
mental organizations which enjoy
consultative status at the United
Nations The American Jew
ish Committee believes that it can
be more effective when action
against Soviet anti-Semitism is
undertaken by Jews and non
Jews jointly, rather than by Jews
alone :.
