Her big disappointment, she wrote, Is not being able to see Martha's pictures. The only time she ever saw Martha on the stage was when the future singing star was three years old and working with her parents in 1 vaudeville. Martha's trip is the answer to this letter. She’ll spend her whole two weeks' vacation visiting her grandmother and singing for the old lady the numbers that have made her famous in night clubs and on the screen. When Dixie Dunbar heard that Twentieth Century-Fox was letting out her favorite assistant director, , Bobby Herndon, she went right to Darryl Zanuck. Evidently her appeal worked, for Herndon is still on the lot. Those in the know, however, say that his romance with Dixie is cooling. i— The most famous scene in "Public Enemy”, where Jimmy Cagney socked Mae Clarke with a grapefruit, has an echo in his new picture, “Great Guy”. Cagney and Mae are walking down the counter at a cafeteria and he is helping her fill her tray. At the desert section, you see several halves of grapefruit. Cagney says to Mae: "Will you have grapefruit?” She answers quickly: "No, I’ll have pie.” It’U probably get a roar. ■You Asked Me and I’m Telling You! Marian Sims, Los Angeles: You heard it right.

BERRY SPEAKS AT CONVENTION Federal Labor Coordinator Predicts Court Liberalization 1 Tampa, Fla., Nov. 18 — <U.R) — Mai. George L. Berry, federal coordinator of industrial cooperation. forecast before the American Federation of Labor convention today that the U. S. supreme i court would accent President Roosevelt’s overwhelming re-elec-tion a.s a mandate favorable to . liberal legislation. Berry’s forecast of supreme court liberalism came as the convention moved into liich gear. Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins told delegates that employment had reached the approximate levels of 1929. At the same time a deluge of resolutions favoring the end of warfare between the federations and the rebel John L. Lewis committee for industrial organization ’ came before the resolutions committee. Berry warned cheering delegates that ir the court ignored the election results, his council for industrial progress composed of business and labor leaders would lead the nation in ‘‘finding a way.’’ "I do not believe and you do not believe,” he said sternly, ' that the constitution ever was intended as an instrument to prevent human progress.” Berry declared there are “two or three ways” to approach the U. S. supreme court problem. If

necessary. He added that the administration would wtateh the court’s decision closely in the interim before congress meets January 6. Among important new deal cases now before the highest tribunal for constitutional tests is the national labor relations act —a measure demanded by organized labor when the court invalidated NRA. Berry outlined the aims of the , council for industrial progress which meets in Washington early next month as obtaining minimum wages, maximum hours, elimination of cut-throat competition, bans on convict labor and taviff readjustments. Mias Perkins asserted a gain of 1,400,000 had been registered in employed rolls during the past 12 months, exclusive of agricultural and emergency government workI ers. If these latter classes are ! included, she added, "employment will approximate the average emi ployment of 1929.” The secretary urged that wage earners and employers continue to "cooperate in the public inter-1 j est” to produce additional bene-;
