boy, making 1t a sort Of week
for the type around here.
Bob, one of MGM,s more
successful and favorite pro-
ducers for q number of post
war years, is now free-lancing
by choice. AS q combination
writer director producer he
prefers the freedom Of the
new Hollywood system. under
which a man with a film
property" negotiates the best
deal he can with any one Of
several studios.
"But before that" said the
man who directed both Bat

ct might direct a picture. I've
done four. but they have all
been my own. and for q big
studio like MGM. It would be
interesting-and 1t also would
mean quick money, which is
good with a wife and two chill
dren. II I can only talk my
self into delaying The Card
board Giants That's one OF
the excitements of being foot
loose-you have to argue so
hard with yourself about
which thing to do"
Ex-School Teacher Hunter,
who taught drama at Gle1-s
view High School and speech
to spastic children in the city's
clinics, Is the busiest producer
of his, or any other, age in
Hollywood. He has just mn
ished Magnificent Obsession, "
a remake Of the film that cat-
apulted Robert Taylor to star
dom, with Jane Wyman and
Rock Hudson. Six other def
mite projects await his return
to Hollywood.
Fother Dogs Boy
Hunter. who was also q boy
actor with dyed red hair In
Life With Father" is a sort
of drama director in the U-I
setup. This studio has spe-
cialized pretty much in action
films-Westerns, Oriental spec
tacles favored with sex, etc.
but is now broadening out
into dramatic love stories.
These are Hunters special
dish of tea. He's delighted
that the studio lets him hire
actresses of the caliber of Miss
Wyman and Gloria Grahame
and possibly some day. perhaps
even Shirley Booth.
"She's the love of my life
helped me through all my
hard times as a young actor
on Broadway" he says. But,
Of course, she's the love Of
everybody's life who has been
lucky enough to meet her"
As for Magnificent Obses-
sion. II which had its world
premiere in his home town,
Hunter is proud and deeply
touched that all of his own
professors at Western Re-
serve came to see the OPEN
ing. And many Of his high
school and even grade teach

Call it corny II you WILL"
he says, "it's wonderful to feel
a little like the home town
boy who made good"
AS Washington tourists go,
no one could ask a nicer lot
than these.

Policy of Instant Retaliation
Is Challenged by Gillette

Senator Gillette. Democrat. Of
Iowa, yesterday sharply chal-
lenged the administrators new
doctrine Of instant retaliation
against Soviet aggression and
said Congress and the American
people should be told more
about it.
The Senator, a member Of the
Foreign Relations Committee.
spoke to the Canadian Club Of
Washington at the Hotel Broad
moor.
IF Canada and others Of our
great allies are troubled by the
meaning Of the strategic doc
trine Of instant retaliation" the
Senator said. 1.-THE American peo-
pie and their representatives in
Congress are even more so. II
our allies ask for consultation
on this vital question. so do the
Congress and the people of this

Cites Criticism on Korea.
Senator Gillette said 1t was only
a few months ago that the Re-
publicans were questioning the
right Of President Truman to
send troops into Korea without
congressional consent.
"Yet when, within the past
few weeks. both the President
and the Secretary of State
launched their new strategy" he
said, "graver by far in its po-
tentials than anything ever pro-
posed by the United States Gov
eminent. there was scarcely a
ripple Of comment among Re-
publican ranks.
"The advocates of the new
policy did not say that we must
be prepared to repel Communist
aggression wherever it occurred.
They went far, far beyond this.
They said the United States
must be ready to 'retaliate in
stantly,' not against the troops

Knowing how to make precision
parts for automatic washing ma
chimes may not be absolutely neces-
sary in order to bake chocolate
cake but it helps according to For
rest Moreland, a foreman in the
largest washing machine factory in
the world. The difference is that he
only bakes as hobby.
Moreland uses practically the
same efficient assembly-line meth
ods for gathering cake ingredients
as he does for turning out the vital
and precise mechanism of a Whirl-
pool washing machine. The final re-
suits in each case are a proud ex-
ample of craftsmanship.
In the nearly 80 years that Mr..
Moreland has been associated with
washing machine manufacture he
has learned the secret of precision
in quality production. In his own
kitchen he follows the same
methods.
A chocolate cake starts at one
end with an empty, bowl. AS it
moves along the kitchen assembly
line" toward the oven, proper in
gradients are added from neat wall
bins and shelves. While the cake is
baking the "sub-assembly" job of
preparing the frosting goes on.
Here is one of Mr.. Moreland's
secrets" on how to remove cake
that sticks to hot tins: Apply a
cloth soaked in cold water to bot
tom of hot pan. The cold causes
pan to contract and loosen cake
without breaking.

Aramite or 21a tablespoons of
Ovotran to one gallon of water.
The first evidence of red mites
on evergreens is small gray or
yellowish spots on the foliage.
Later the foliage becomes bronzed
in color. Heavily infested needles
may drop from the tree. The en-
tire tree will lose its vigor and
have an unhealthy appearance.
Mites are extremely small and
hard to detect with the naked eye.
They vary in color from reddish
brown to pale green. The mites
spin fine silken threads over the
needles. All stages of this pest
can be found on the foliage during
the summer.

position.
Mr.. Dulles turned to the for

Hoover"

end when the elder Mr.. Hoover
interrupted to proclaim with a
grin:
II had nothing whatsoever to
do with this appointment. You.
Mr.. Secretary. never consulted
me on this. I might have dis
couraged YOU"
Mr.. Dulles replied that he
never consulted Mr.. Hoover ex-
cept when he expected wise ad-
vice, and in this case Mr.. Hoover
might have given the wrong
answer. Turning serious, Mr..
Dulles told the former President:
The great tradition that you
laid down now is going to be
carried on through your son."
