BATAVIA DRILLS | * AGAINST SPIES
Realism Keynotes Work of - Fifth Column Guard In East Indies.
BATAVIA, Java, Jan. 22 (U, P.).— Netherlands East Indies soldiers maintained night-and-day watch against Fifth Columnists today as
they guarded a veritable storehouse |$ ‘of materials vital to a nation at|j
war. : The Fifth Column watch was still
largely in the drill stage, but not |g
to the soldiers. They are not informed about the state of world affairs when they march from their barracks. They tramp to their posts . with full cartridge belts and fixed - bayonets with every intention of using both if necessary. Few Get Through Realism is the keynote of the drills, even if they appear to take on comic opera aspects at times. A certain section of the Batavia . militia may be told the 50 Fifth
Columnists will try to enter the city :
on a prescribed date and on these occasions anything goes. The “Fifth Columnists” use disguises of all types and individual ingenuity is encouraged. Very few “Fifth Columnists” get into Batavia during these drills. On one occasion, however, a policeman in uniform on a motorbike appeared at the barriers. He was asked for his papers. Complaining that he had to be at headquarters at once. he pointed to his uniform and demanded to know if that was not proof enough. The guards let him by. Mounted Bench Another group got by by posing ay a Chinese funeral, corpse and
One of the most daring performances was by a man who decked himself out in a judge's robe. He waved a greeting as he approached the barrier in a sedan and the guards let him pass without queson. When the pseudo judge reached Batavia, he decided to carry the - farce further. He entered a court, * mounted the bench and had proceeded with the first case before he was discovered.
2 CHICAGO GUNMEN ROB MRS. FACTOR
CHICAGO, Jan. 22 (U, P.).—Mrs. John Factor, wife of a Chicago barber who reputedly built a fortune of $7,000,000 in international speculation, and four friends were robbed early today of furs .and jewelry worth approximately $16,645. Two gunmen commandeered the automobile in which Mrs. Factor and her friends were arriving home from a theater. They ordered Simon Wexler to follow the bandits’ automobile which was driven by an ac-| complice. After taking the .party’s| valuables, the bandits fled in their own: automobile.

U.S. PERIL CITED BY PETTENGILL
Nation Is Being Scared Into British Alliance,
i
| Pettengill Says.
President Roosevelt's foreign policy stood condemned here today as on? that is “scaring” the U. S. into intervening in the second World War. ¢ The charge was leveled hy Samuel B. Pettengill, former | [Democratic Congrisssman from In¢iana. He told the Indianapolis Kotary Club yester(lay that America ‘would have to pay: and security if she wegnt to the armed: aid of Britain. He said the nation was being “scared into an offensive and defensivé alliance with Great Britain in a world imperialism which will make us once again no more than a colony of England.” He :cmphasized that ie did not want 0 see Britain! defeated, but thought that for the U. S. to leave its traditional role as a non-inter-ventionist would cost the nation its own security, its liberty: and perhaps even its form of government. Four; causes, he said, Were driving the U.S. into the status of 2 “nonshooting - belligerent.” | These, he listed &s an abhorence of Naziru thlessness; belief that the President had gene as far as he would toward aiding Britain; | control of public opinion by a small group of people, and Wendell Wilikie’s support of the Administrati s’s foreign policiej, thus preventing s clean-cut debate on the issues. . _ “Weishould arm quickly, but there is no case in history where one nation across an ocean has ever attacked, another equal nation successfully,” the speaker s.iid. “As [ see it, most of the nation hopes Britain survives, but what price are we willing to p iy for that? That; price, as he saly it, would mean sacrifice of American lives, propertly, freedom and pérhaps even the setjing up of a Fascist state. William D. Hamerstadt. chairman of th# Rotary Naticnal Affairs Committee, was in chérge of the meeting and presented Mr. Pettengil fo the several hundred businessmen. Among guests were Lieut. Gov. Charles M. Dawson and Senator
Williarh E. Jenner (R. Shoals.)

’ [RUSSIA BUILDS | NAZI-LIKE ARMY
Entire National Economy Geared to Defense in Drastic Remodeling.
By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS’ Times Foreign Editor. WASHINGTON, Jan, 22.—Behind an almosi impenetrable wall of silence imposed by [the world’s strictest censorship, &pviet Russia is remodeling her Army along lines so drastic that they can only be described #s revolutionary.
A recently returned and thoroughly 1¢liable eyewitness says that what is happening today inside the Soviet Union sppears to be a sort of combination ¢f Germany’s all-out preparations for conquest, and our own present efforts to provide the United States with impregnable defenses—pliis inevitable variations of Russia’s own. The whole national economy, ft is said, is now being geared to the new Army. Industrial, agriculture, mining, transport and communications are undergoing transformation to adapt them, fiist and foremost, to the needs of the fighting services. The rest of the- population will get what is l¢ft.
Labor Included
Labor i$ included in the new national objective. This is said to be the construction of a military juggernaut, more powerful, if possible, than that of Germany which Russia still looks upon as a standing threat. Hours ¢f work have been greatly lengthened. Wages have shrunk. Cost of living has gone up and continues to rise whether measured in terms of rubles or labor performed. Housing conjinues to be a major problem and there is small likelihood of improverpent in the near future. Military preparedness is the order of the day, and everything else is relegated to comparative unimportance. The new Red Army is to be a professional Army, or at least one modeled along professional lines. Officers and men no longer mingle in the old free and easy manner. They neither eat togetiier nor sleep in tne sane quarters, | Officers are addressed as behooves their rank, and other ratings not only salute them but get up and offer their places in subway trainy and streetcars. As in Czarist Days
This is a close approach to the discipline of czarist days when, between acts at a theatrical performance, soldiers would rise and remain standing when oflicers of field rank were present. Nazi efficiency in Foland, Norway, Denmark, Holland, Belgium and France is said to have made a tremendous impression upon Stalin. Few observers believe that Hitler and Stalin have buried the hatchet for good. Should the Fuehrer vin his war against Britain, many are convinged, the old quarrel between him znd the Red Czar would flare up ailresh. If so, only a Prussianized forge at least as large and as well equipped as Hitler's could save Russia. A Red Army like that used against Finland, Stalin now knov's, would be worthless. On the other hand, should Hitler lose the war, it is felt that Stalin will almost certainly cash ih on the situation which would follow.” For that purpose, also, he would find a huge and highly trained military machine most useful.
Studio of Dance Crows Rapidly
The Arthur Murray Dance Studio in the Hotel Washington, which opened earlier this morith, is urfdergoing an expansion of space and staff. Lewis Carter, the manager, has hired additional instructors from the Murray Studio in New York and has added to th¢ two lesson rooms with which he started. New rooms are now available for private instruction and-rooms for class lessons are to be added later. Mr. Carter and Norma Wyckoff with other members of the teaching staff, will also conduct a rumba matinee each Saturday from 3 to 5 p. m. Music will be by ithe Biltmore Boys, and the Murray teachers will offer demonstrations and free rumba lessons.

Western Packs
Paramount;
Revivals Have Big Spot in Mid-Week Bills
By DAVID MARSHALL
FOR SOME STRANGE reason which I am at a loss fo understand the motion picture industry now refers to Westerns as “out-
door pictures.”
Perhaps the movie moguls think that after 37 years some change should "be made in one of the cinema’s most changeless art forms. A generation ago the first dramatic motion pictures ever filmed in
America caused the birth of a two billion dollar business. Ii was “The Great Train Robbery,” strictly a Western. The plot still is basically the same—you get ’em in a fix, then you get ’em out. And this is what packs ‘em in from the once-a-week houses along the Rio Grande to the de luxe houses of Japan. That's the way it has been at the Paramount Theater here. Each Saturday night for more than 10 years has been “Western night.” It used to be Hoot Gibson, Jack Hoxie, Harry Carey, Ken Maynard and many another. Now its Buck Jones, John Mack Brown, Tex Ritter, Dick Foran, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers and George O’Brien. The latter will be there next Saturday in “Triple Justice.” (Plus Warren Hull in “The Last Alarm” and a comedy). 8 8 =»
THE PARKER, too, for its family nights tonight and tomorrow has a western, “Stage to Chino,” billed with another revival: James Cagney’s. “Each Dawn I Die.” ” ” ” “OF HUMAN BONDAGE," Bette Davis’ first real hit which was first seen here at the Circle in November 1934, open a four-day run tonight at the Vogue.
LIKE THE millinery and accessory manufacturers, Hollywood is capitalizing on the current interest in our armed forces, at least to the extent of issuing short subjects on the matter. M-G-M’s film of the U. S. fleet, “Eyes of the Navy,” is on the Fountain Square program tonight through Friday coupled with George Brent in “South of Suez” and Mr. O'Brien's above mentioned “Triple Justice.”

TWO FILMS which in some recpects are, quite musical have been scheduled for tomorrow through Saturday at the Rivoli— “Tin Pan Alley” and “Little Nellie Kelly.” At the last show only Saturday night, “Golden Boy” with William Holden and Barbara Stanwyck is coming back. » » #
THE ESQUIRE returns to a single feature policy tomorrow for three days with “Strike Up the Band.” An added fillip is “Know Your Money,” a Crime Doesn't Pay short and Walt Disney's “Pluto’s Dream House.” * 8 n ; THE ASCAP-BMI feud hasn't reached the proportions where it might. invade the motion picture or vaudeville houses so that short subjects of your favorite dance bands playing ASCAP tunes continue to make the rounds.
