Roosevelt, although one of the most youthful members of Congress, already has won recognition as an authority on economy and fiscal matters and an arch-enemy of governmental extravagance. Born in Bisbee, Ariz., in 1894, Douglas was graduated from Amherst in 1916, after which he attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology until 1917, when he gave up his studies to go forth and do battle for 1 Uncle Sam. Douglas served in France as first lieutenant in the 91st Division. He saw fighting in the Argonne and Flanders, was cited for distinguished conduct and decorated by the Belgian Government. After the war. Douglas went back to his Alma Mater as an instructor in history. In 1921 he married Miss Peggy Zinsser, of Hastings-on-the-Hudson, N. Y., and returned to his native Arizona, where he engaged in mining and citrus ranching. Douglas made his political debut as a member of the Arizona House of Representatives in 1923. Four years later his State sent him to Washington as a member of the 70th Congress. As a mer.iber of the House Committee on Appropriations, Douglas attracted attention by his earnest efforts to bring about economy. Although a war veteran himself, he vigorously advocated sweeping slashes in Veterans’ Ad-ninis tration costs —naming $400,000,000 as a suggested ci|t. For several weeks past, Rep.

By HARRISON CARROLL. I ( Copyright, |>33. Kint Featurea Syndicate. Ine. HOLLYWOOD, —This year should see the reinstatement of Nils Asther as a romantic favorite. Cruelly frozen out by the talkies, . i the tall Swedish

\ ■ i vy »a Nila , Asther

■ star has mas- , I l erf d English 1 I and is down on . the books for i some, really iin- ; port an t pici tures. He will | take a lead very 1 soon in “Rhapsody." a Hungarian play which Lucien Hibbard will make into his ! second picture i for Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer ‘ Cast as a

dashing Hu n - garian officer of post-war times. Nils will don uniforms even more striking than in “The Bitter Tea of General Yen.” With his new confidence. he should emerge from this picture well on the way up to his former eminence Those who know him best tell you that Nils is a shy fellow, who would be better off if he knew how to assume more Hollywood front. He mixes very little socially, preferring a quiet life with a good deal of time devoted to horseback riding and gymnastics. Since his separation from V ivian Duncan, the gossips haven’t tabbed him once with another woman. All the out-of-work actors in Hollywood want to stampede to radio work. El Brendel has a friend who goes on the air every morning at 7:30. "What on earth do you do then?” El asked him. “Tell bedtime stories for nightwatchmen.” was the acid reply. There is one story, though, that I’d like to tell you. Is is about a woman, a story of high courage in the face of misfortune. The heroine is Mrs. Harold Lockwood. Any of you with a knowledge of motion picture background will remember Harold Lockwood. When Mary Pickford was just beginning to be known as "America’s Sweetheart.” when Eugene O’Brien was a rising matinee idol when President Wilson was in his first term at the W’hite House when hobble skirts were drawing tirades from the cloth manufacturers and when i war clouds were ready to sweep

Refreshments were served by the . hostesses, the Mesdames Walter ' Deitsch, Floyd Hunter, Edward Miller and Raymond Moser, at the small tables. , Guests other than regular el ss . members were the Mesdames Mar- ; [tin Miller, Fred Heuer. Dick Bogner I ' and Otto Reppert and Della Sellemeyer of this city'and Mrs. Herman ! Stults, of Huntington. • "SCOTLAND YARD" TOPIC OF CLUB PAPER { Nineteen members attended the • meeting of the Lidies Shakespare I [Club which was held at the home . 'of Mrs. Elizabeth Morrison. Wed-

over Europe, Harold Lockwood was a great star. Today his widow is a make-up woman. She isn’t even a regular studio make-up woman. Calls for her come only when casts are so large that the regular staff have to call in outside assistance. The other day on the Wheeler-Woolsey set at R-K-0 was the first time she had worked since December. Yet. in spite of all the bitter breaks Hollywood hes handed her, this woman carries on. Her smile is an armor against pity. Maybe, some day. when Harold Jr. gets out of secretarial school, she can take it easy. But there’s the meanwhile. How about it. Hollywood? HOLLYWOOD PARADE. It’s au revoir for the Culbertsons next Saturday. The bridge expert, who called Hollywood names and •then wouldn’t back it up. is expected to finish his sixth short (he calls them featurettes) some time in the latter part of the week Trust Clara Bow to go the other stars one better. They adopt one bhby and she takes on two 10-year-old cousins. . . The actor playing the butler in “Supernatural" is the uncle and adopted father of poor Peg Entwhistle . . . Quite ambitious is Central City in Denver. It wants Charlie Chaplin to play “Hamlet” there next summer. Also Helen Freeman for the same production.

V Dorothy Wilson

. . . They’ll tell you that the statue of Marlene Dietrich for “Song of Songs” is insured for SIO,OOO. . . . Betty Furness and Dorothy Wilson have new long term contracts at R-K-O. They are among the very few survivals of this studio’s big drive for young players. . . . Did you hear Shirley Grey's real

name?—Agnes Zetterstrand. . . . I And. in answer to several queries. Jack La Rue. the actor who supplanted George Raft in “The Story of Temple Drake.” is not married. What other gossip is there? In the words of Clarence Marks, it’s so quiet around Hollywood today, vou can hear an option drop. DID YOU KNOW — That Franchot Tone won a Phi Beta Kappa key at Cornell?

■ inesday afternoon with Mrs. Phillip lObenauer hostess. [ Mrs. Ncah Frye read an interestring paper on "Call in Scotland Yard; Keeping Peace, aid Criminal «’ Investigation Department." : Mrs. Frye spoke of the different ’ divisions of Scotland Yard and how it was organized, the loyal support i [the citizens give in evidence to police i.i Scotland Yard when a crime r is committed. I The leader also told of the independence of the police to Scotland Yard, and stated th.it when a criminal is apprehended and fire-arms ' i are found on liis person the punish- [ mail is greater. There is a smaller amount of crime committed in Eng land than in the United States. Not [so many of the foreign element live in England.

COMPANY SALES SHOW BIC DROP Sales of Electricity And Gas By Northern Indiana Show Decrease Sales of electricity by the Northlorn Indiana Public Service Company dropped over 21 per cent and I sales of gas over 24 per cent in 1932 as a result of the business and ■industrial depression, according to I the annual report of the company { made public today. Total gross revenues of the com- ; nany in 1932 were $12,575,730 compared with $14,815,011 in 1931, a | decline of $2,239,281. Net income ; totaled $1,849,899 compared with $3,726,421 in 1931, a decrease of $l- - 876,522. { Sales of electrical energy totaled 1 221,694,999 kilowatt hours in 1932 I compared with 281,944,573 kilowatt hours in 1931. a decrease of 21.37 per cent. Sales of electricity to in- . dustrial consumers showed the {greatest loss, declining 26.22 per cent. Total sa'.es of gas during the year aggregated 28,825,161 thernig or 4,610,724.800 cubic feet compared with 38.094.371 therms or 6,327,964,300 cubic feet in 1931, a loss of 24.33 per cent. A therm is 100,000 British thermal units and sales are expressed in therms in the report because the company is supplying gas of high heat content in several communities and cubic feet meas- . urement therefore is not an accur-l ate method of comparison. The company also reports a loss i In all classes of customers. At the close of the year. 72,725 customers were receiving electric service compared with 76,879 at the end of . 1931, a loss of 5.40 per cent. Gas customers numbered 105,647 coin- | pared with 116,739 at the close of I the preceding year, a reduction of 9.50 per cent. The company during the year paid dividends on its preferred | stocks which are owned by 16.468 [stockholders, 7,157 of whom are | residents of Indiana. It was necessary to suspend payment of dividends on the common stock of the I company after June, however, beI cause of the loss of earnings. 0 Would Change Names Indianapolis, March 2 —(UP) — ;The names of the Fort Wayne I State School for Feeble Minded and [the Mustatatuck colony at Buter- | ville would be changed by a new bill [introduced yesterday in the .Indiana I senate.
