Jewish Year In Hollywood

and Georges Clemenceau risen to
his defense.
In the current version, only An
ton Walbrook, himself an esapee
from NaZi oppression, is Jewish.
Ironically enough, he has been cast
in the role of the viciously anti
Semitic Count Esterhazy. q
During the past year an era
came to an end at Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer Studios, the worlds largest
motion picture company. Nicholas
M. Schenk, for almost 40 years with
LOew's, Inc, the firm that con-
trolls MGM, resigned from his post
as president, and shortly after
wards, Dore Schary, vice president
in charge of production, was dis
missed by the new administration.
SCHARY has set up an independ-
ent production firm. He plans to
make first motion picture based
on the life of F.D.R,, also drama
tized by him for the Broadway
stage.
While head of production at RKO
10 years ago, Schary was response
BILE for "CrosSfire," the strongest
attack on anti-Semitism ever
launched in a movie.
Another Jewish boy made movie
headlines during the past year
Kirk Douglas, who 10 years ago
zoomed to stardom with one mo-
ton picture portraying most de-
testable character in ''The Cham
pion."
DURING THE past eight months
Douglas completed two starring
roles in multi-million dollar fea-
lures produced by his own COM
pany. Early in spring, he went to
Munich, Germany, to shoot Paths
of Glory" from the Humphrey
Cobb novel of 1885 which was
made into Broadway play many
years ago.
The last year saw the release of
Cecil B. DeMille's broad epic '"The
Ten Commandments" which broke
all records in research, technical
skill, artistic talent, and money
spent to make it a tribute to the
People of the Book. Yet, storywise,
there is more about the life of
young Moses than there is about
the giving of the Law on Mount
Sinai.
ANOTHER less expensive Bibli-
cal spectacle is forthcoming during
the next season. Screenplay for
Solomon Sheba," classic love
legend, was written by julius Ep-
stein and Crane Wilbur. Gina Lollo-
brigida doubles as Queen of Sheba
and co-producer of the epic yarn.
Currently in production is anoth-
er movie of interest to Jewish aud
fences, Marjorie Morningstar,"
based on the Herman Wouk novel.

1t is the often told story of AL
fred Dreyfus, who was convicted
because he was a Jew - the first
Jew ever to serve on the general
staff of the French army.
THE TIME was 1894 and France
in the throes of an anti-Semitic
wave, nursed by the same Maj.
Count Ferdinand Esterhazy, guilty
of the spy charges levelled against

CONGRESSMAN
BACKS ISRAEL'S
FOOD REQUEST

TEL AVN (JTA)-ISrael should
be included in the worldwide Uni
ted States stockpiling of foods for
emergencies in friendly nations,
Rep. Victor L. Anfuso, New York
Democrat, said here today at a
press conference at the u. S. En-
bassy.
Representative Anfuso, chairman
of a congressional subcommittee on
agricultural surpluses which re-
Gently held hearings on the ma
tional and international Stockpiling
project, said furnishing of arms is
not the best way to peace" The
best weapon for fostering peace is
supplying food, he declared.
He disclosed that Israel had ask
ed the Eisenhower Administration
for surplus food for 1857 and 1858
of an approximate value of $780,
OOO, 900, double the amount Israel
was provided during 1855 and 1856.
He said the Israel request for
the next two years, like that Of the
previous two, was mainly for
wheat, corn, beef, dry milk, butter,
and edible oil, adding he would
support the request because he had
become convinced during his visit
here that Israel was making excel
lent use of such American aid.

Jordan Coded
Hill By Israel

LONDON (JTA)-Israel has ced-
ed to Jordan a small hill which
has been involved in recent Incl
dents, the London Daily Telegraph
reported from Jerusalem. The dis
patch noted that in addition to
helping determine the demarcation
line between the two states, 1t was
hoped that Israel's action will pre-
vent further incidents in the area.
The hill, the report said, is a
small triangular area in previ-
ously unmarked region.
Upon investigation by a mixed
group representing both states and
the UN truce staff, it was decided
that the hill belonged to Jordan and
the transfer was made at once.

the printers devil sleeping there

carried away parts of the press.
With new press purchased Pugh
was at work by IL o'clock next day,

and were about to set fire to the shop
when Samuel w. Davies, the mayor,
climbed up on a box and interviewed
'You have done well enough so far, !"
he told the mob, "but don't set fire
to the shop-it might endanger the
buildings adjacent to it." The mob
then produced a rope and with it
dragged the press down to the levee
and threw it into the river.
After that the Phildnthr0pist was

Warren County, and brought to Gin

Pugh was a marked man and very
much wanted as subject for tar and

places, staying at home after dark
and staying out of certain parts of the
city when it was light, he managed
to escape personal violence-besides
he was mighty well muScled and
