According to George W. Lundgren, chief engineer of Paramount’s $500,000 air conditioning system, the German star does her best work when the temperature is 67 degrees. Players vary on this, the technician explains. Carole Lombard, for instance, Is in top form when the thermometer registers 68. W. C. Fields likes better at 70, Claudette Colbert at 71, Gary Cooper at 60, Bing Crosby at 65, Fred Mac Murray at 60 and Joan Bennett at 74. When children are working, the sound stage is kept around 70 ' degrees to prevent the youthful 1 actors taking colds. In the picture, "The Princess Comes Across”, where an orchestra was being used, the humidity of the i sound stage was increased to protect the stringed instruments. Dry air I causes strings to become brittle and break and thus causes loss of time.

DEATH PENALTY (•CONTINUED FROM 7. his colleague in crime, Harry Campbell, also a killer, was taken in Toledo. Then, just six hours later, the G-men swooped down on William H. Mahan, kidnaper of George Hunt Weyerhaeuser, in San Francisco. I>ast night it was the turn of Robinson—the cleverest of them all. Unlike other kidnapers, Robinson took no care to preserve his victim from harm. In October, 1934, he forced his way in the Louisville home of the wealthy iStolls, slugged Mrs. Stoll with a piece of gas pipe, bound her hands behind her, a,nd carried her away in his car. Six days later, after her husband, Berry Stoll, had paid $541,000 ransom, she was released. Robinson faced a prosecution tus thorough and relentless as the year and a, half search that ended in Glendale last night. Already under indictment for violation of the Lindbergh law, there was a possibility that he might be tried under the Kentucky law that provides death for kidnaping, whether or not the victim is harmed. The Lindbergh law specifies death for kidnapers who harm their victims and federal authorities intimated that, the slugging to which Mrs. Stoll was subjected made that specification operative against Robinson. Admits Violence (Copyright 1936 by United Press) Washington, May 12 — (U.R) — Thomas H. Robinson, Jr., admitted after his capture in California, it was learned today, that he subjected Mrs. Alice Speed Stoll to merciless violence while he held

I her captive. This admission, under the new federal kidnaping law. makes Robinson eligible for the death sentence. J. Edgar Hoover, director of the federal bureau of investigation, was advised by his agents in California today that under questioning Robinton told them he was forced to inc a lead pipe to beat Mrs. Stoll into submission. It was revealed at the same time that Mrs. Stoll was Robinson's "third choice” as a kidnan victim. Originally. Hoover said his agents were told, Robinson had intended to kidnap Mrs. Stoll's father-in-law. He even visited the residence of the elder Stoll but found him away from home. He then went to the home of the son, intending to kidnap him and finfally decided upon his wife when the son, too, was away. According to the confession, as (transmitted to Hoover, Robinson said he was forced to heal his victim to make her obey his commands. Under the federal kidnap-' ing status the death penalty is iprovided for kidnapers in any case where victims are harmed physically during captivity. Hoover said tha.t a cheek of, Robinson's lodging had resulted [ in finding five firearms, including; a .45 caliber automatic pistol, which was in Robinson's pocket,; two .25 caliber automatics, a .38 | automatic, end a 12 gttage Remington automatic shotgun. LEMKE DENIES ijCONTfNUED FRoy J»*GE ONE) i fore the senate finance committee, j Secretary of Agriculture Henry I A. Wallace, the first witness, j warned the committee that unless) the new bill revises the present I law the government "may be fonced to refund the major shape” of the $963,229,981.67 collected in processing taxes under the now invalidated AAA. In the face of a mounting revolt in the senate committee against the measure as passed by the house, Chairman Pat Harrison, D., Miss., received word from the White House that President Roosevelt had not fixed his mind I upon any set tax formula. Mr. Roosveelt will be satisfied,

it was indicated, if the bill retains , two essentials. These are: . The fundamental theory of , forced distribution of corporate earnings in the form of taxable dividends. The $1,137,000,000 revenue yield ’ originally demanded. The word from the White House came as the committee re-opened its hearings for the purpose of hearing high new deal officials on various portions of the bill heavily attacked by business and industrial witnesses. First to come before the committee was Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace who supported the “windfall” tax on unpaid processing taxes which he characterized- as an “unjust enrichment tax.” Wallace also asked for revival of modified processing taxes in order to raise the revenue yield of the tax bill. He asserted the modified levy would present “only
