let Warner Brothers send a cam eraman to his hideaway near Pain Springs. The other day an amateur pho tographer named Ray Strickei showed up at the studio publicity department with 160 pictures of Brent in the back yard of his hideaway. The star is shown fixing the tire on a car, boxing with his standin, Don Turner, and even sleeping with his mouth open in a hammock. “How did you get to know Brent well enough to take these?” asked the publicity men. “Oh, I’ve never met him." said the amateur. “I got ail these shots when I climbed up in a tree and photographed Mr. Brent through a telescopic lens.” Stricker's ingenuity got him a nice check from the studio, which turned over the pictures to the photo magazine, even the one of Brent sleeping with his mouth open. Nancy Kelly, newcomer from Broadway, is back from the “Jesse James’’ location and is ready tc tell the world that the life of a movie star is no bed of roses.

TEN MILLIONS (CONTINUED from PAGE ONE) possible future layoffs. • "Since the first of January, benI efits payments in 27 stats and the ..District of Columbia have reached | a total of 1300.000,000 Despite abI normal payment loads, ail of the state unemployment compensation i trust funds are in excellent condl- , tlon. This Is especially true of the I Indiana trust fund, whioh amount,|ed to $27,000,000 on April 1, and | still totalled $24,000,000 after pay- ! ment of $10,000,000 of benefits, with three months contributions due October 1 which will bring the , fund back close to its former high 1 figure. It has met six months of abnormal unemployment without ! materially diminishing, and will readily absorb the current addi- | tional load caused by repeal of the ' i ‘slo clause’. "There have been 38.000 claims filed since August 15 as a result of the $lO clause’ repeal. Many of these are being paid on a cur--1 rent basis, and while there has 1 naturally been some delay in hand- , ling this sudden increase, it appears that even this business will be on a current basis within a fewweeks. It is believed the payments i to these persons will not exceed • I the $4,500,000 estimate made by 1 the Division September 1. "Filing of initial benefit claims 'has declined from an average of more than 8.000 a week during I May and June to an average of 2,547 for the last four weeks, insoi far as claims resulting from current layoffs are concerned. Re-em-ployment has taken almost 57,000 claimants from the benefit rolls i during their benefit periods, and an additional 9.000 have not been out of work long enough to finish their waiting periods.” t o CZECHS CAPITULATE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) complement the Munich agreement 1 on Sudetenland and the historic British-German renunciation of war it was reported today. This disclosure was made today as Adolf Hitler returned to Berlin and a Nazi triumph. It was asserted in most reliable quarters that a German-French declaration of friendship was actually in process of preparatiort and might be issued at any time. Government quarters said that this declaration would be of the same character as that announced at Munich yesterday by Hi’ter and Prime Minister Neville Chamber lain—Equivalent to a non-agreesion pact, which they regarded as deflnj i.tg both agreements. Further, it was learned that as the direct result of the British-French-German-Ital anagreement on on Sudetenland signed at Munich, French-German-Italian agreement and the supplementing German-Brit-ish and German-French agreements, government circles expected that the question of limitation cf armaments would be the'subject of interInational negotiations soon.
