, By HARRISON CARROLL ’ CspyricM, 1337. King Features syndicate. Inc. ~ HOLLYWOOD—Expose type of art layout* in a new magazine have Hollywood burned to a crisp, but will accomplish one purposemore stringent regulations about publicity pictures of young players, I who will be the stars of tomorrow. ' For. most of the objectionable i shots were released by the studios I themselves In Hollywood's more i careless days—being considered as the type of art that would hit the t news pages on dull days or in early editions. Which they did. I Unfortunately, some of the $75 a week contract girls have become the dignified queens of today’s cinema—and now those pictures hurt. For the last two years, of course, the Hays office has curbed sensationalism along this line. All publicity pictures are submitted to the central bureau and come back either with the blue stamp of approval or the red stamp of rejection. If the latter, they cannot be released. Under the Hays ruling, a girl's leg can’t be photographed if she is wearing street attire. If she is in a bathing suit, it is all right. The romance of Mae Clarke and Dr. Frank Nolan has hit the skids. She has returned the ring and everything. Ross Alexander is now in his grave. Only a few of the late star’s Intimate friends knew that he had been carrying a heavy financial load—debts contracted during a long period when he was down on his luck, and which Ross began paying off as soon as he came into the money at Warners. One item was a stay of eight months in the hospital after an accident In which he lost most of his teeth. Part of his face had to be made over at the time. Ross didn’t advertise all this, but the debts w’ere being paid, dollar for dollar. You Asked Me and I’m Telling You! Beryl Whitehead. San Francisco: The W. C. Fields picture.

Diminutive, quiet-spoken Adolph Zukor has a secretary who has been with him for 25 years. He is superstitious about the association and invited her out from New York for the Paramount Silver Jubilee celebration in his honor.

ORGANIZATION 1$ OBSCURED Fundamental Change In Federal Government Is Doubted i (Copyright 1937 by United Pres®) Washington. Jan. 15—<U.R) - n ’ I certainty among President RooseIvelt’s advisers and congressional leaders about concrete economies possible under government re-, organization today further obscured the outlook for fundamental change in the executive branch of government I From many quarters has been heard talk about hoped-for economies since Mr. Roosevelt's reorganization plan wae submitted to congress this week. But it has been in confusingly general terms. Mr. Roosevelt and his own reorganization committee do not agree on economy. In two pres® conferences Mr. Roosevelt has, emphasized that his principal objective is efficient government and that scant economy would flow from his reorganization plan. The three expert® who drafted the program submitted to congress were more optimistic. In their leport. which the president endorsed. they said: "The need for reorganization rests not alone on earings, considerable as they may be x x x. It will be noted that we have made no estimate of the amount of money that will be saved. Me : have not made such an estimate xxx despite the fact that we are | convinced that the establishment of the managerial agencies and the reorganization of the administrative departments that we have recommended will result in large savings, not only of money but of time and effort.” There is no certainty whether Mr. Roosevelt undertook reorganization for both economy and efficiency and later was persuaded small economies would result, or whether he merely prefers to emphasize the efficiency objective beyond any money saving. It is understood that in preliminary talks with some members of congress the president suggested savings of three to four per cent might be realized by reorganization but later abandoned that optimism. A four per cent economy in the 1936 fiscal year would have amounted to approximately $240,000,000. Expenditures that year, not including the soldiers bonus and charges for interest and debt retirement, were about $6,000,000,000. A four per cent saving probably would satisfy mast congressional critics of the Roosevelt plan. Sen. Harry F. Byrd. D„ Va., is one of i the foremost senate economizers and critics of Rooeevelt re-organi-zation. As governor of Virginia, Byrd said he reorganized the state government saving five per cent. Chairman James P. Buchanan of the house appropriations committee also insists on reorganization economy, but so far has placed his objective at about 1% per cent of 1936 regular and recovery and relief expenditures — $50,000,000 to $100,000,000. Buchanan said that much could be saved by abolDr. Eugene Fields DENTIST X-RAY LABORATORY Phone No. 56 127 N. 3rd at _ * 33b WOWO 4:15 p.m. 1 WGL .. 7:00 p.m. F THE RECORDED [ ADVENTURES I I. .
