and Bancroft, r along with Director John Cromwell and a camera crew, now is at Quincy, Mass., in search of authentic atmosphere. As he doesn’t appear in these scenes, Ames will not join the company until its return to Hollywood. By this time a leading woman also . will have been selected. “Rich Man’s Folly” is Bancroft’s I first picture since “Scandal Sheet,” a matter of ten months ago. A LUCKY THING.

I .CONTINUED ’’ROM PAGE ONEt the next time? to have government prepare for it, because II the political elements in governilment may adopt plans and panaceas 'lwhich, lik compulsory unemployment insurance, you believe are, I unsound or harmful or futile, and I may in the end overwhelm an al-' ready overburdened public treas-' ury.

! ( doing to put your own house in ord ' ■-r. so as to avert this danger of governmental intervention?” President Hoover still is oppose' to government unemployment insurance and other federal legislation which would be in the nature of a dole. However, the problem is becoming more pressing an 1 is takI ing on political importance. Some of those working in cooperation with President Hoover are convinced private philanthropliy cannot fully meet the situation. Greater aid from municipalities and probably from states th inselves is believed necessary. Special taxes for this purpose may be urged and Fred C. Croxton, acting chairman of the Pnsident's employment committee. is urging local officials to consider that problem. In January, February and March of this year. | according to his figures, SI large I cities spent $31,000X00 for relief.

I Jeanne Eagels. I

The actress, who closely resembles her fai mous cousin, has never revealed the relationship. She even changed her hairdress and arched her eye-b rows because people remarked on the likeness. “I don’t believe in trading on anybody else’s fame,” she says. “Jeanne was the first one to advise me

to go on the stage, and it would have been a poor way of repaying her to make capital of my ! i name.” Before going to Hollywood, the actress played in stock in the East and did a few small parts on Broadway. She now rates in the first, ranks of the i extras. • DID YOU KNOW. That Tom Keene (George Dur- , yea) once drove a Government i- Btage-coach in South Dakota?
