Strike of 60,000 Steel Workers Threatens in . Eastern Mills.
J By UNITED PRESS Labor disputes delayed production of national defense materials at 16 plants today and a strike of 60,000 steel workers was threatened in Eastern mills. Negotiations were adjourned in the strike of 7800 United Automobile Workers (C. I. O.) at the Mil- - waukee, Wis., plant of the Allishalmers Manufacturing Co. after a union mass meeting voted to support the negotiating committee's demand for “union security” and paraded with a coffin labeled “here lies the Allis-Chalmers anti-union policy.” ' U.S. Conciliator James P. Holmes and Thomas .Burns of the Office of Production Management left the union-company conferences to re‘port to OPM officials at Washington. - The strike, involving defense contracts totaling 40 million dollars, has been in progress since Jan. 22. The Steel Workers’ Organizing ‘Committee (C. I. O.) threatened to call out the,60,000 workers at Bethlehem S Corp. plants in Pennsylvania and New York unless the firm agrees to wage increases and union security. Union members at the Lackawanna, N. Y., Bethlehem plant have authorized the S. W. O. C. executive committee to call a strike “whenever warranted.” Members of the U. A. W.-A. F. of L. Union at the Motor Wheel Corp. plant at Lansing, Mich., voted today on an agreement that would end a 12-day strike. The firm holds defense orders for four million dollars worth of airplane propellers and shell casings. The 3000 strikers had demanded a union shop.

Marion County will become the 11th Congressional District under provisions of the reapportionment bill expected to be approved by the Legislature this week. Formerly the western two-thirds of the County was the 12th District and the eastern one-third was part of the 11th with Hancock and Madison Counties. Reducing the total districts fo 11, the reapportionment bill puts Hancock in the 10th District and Madison in the Fifth District. The only other change is the transfer of Clark County from the Ninth to the Eighth District.

TWO VACATIONS IN NEW MEXICO
Year-Round Good Weather Helps Popularity of Border State.
Times Special SANTE FE, N. M,, Feb. 25.—Disciples of the “two-vacations-a-year” movement, rapidly gaining favor
throughout the United States, will find in New Mexico an answer to the problem of where to go. Regardless of season New Mexico is a vacation.land. A goodly part of the state’s all-year popularity is directly responsible to good climate and wedther. There is nearly always sunshine and seldom rain. The southern portions of the state are quite mild, even during the coldest months; yet in the high mountain country there are more than a dozen areas for the winter sports enthusiast.
Many National Forests
A majority of New Mexico's natural and historical attractions are accessible during winter, which gives the seasonal traveler the advantage of visiting outstanding points of interest without the usual rush of summer tourists. In addition to winter sports there are such seasonal activities as fishing, camping, picnicking, hiking, pack trips and big game hunting. Nearly 11 per cent of the state is covered by national forests. Public picnic grounds, hiking trails and wilderness areas becken even the “tenderfoot” in these areas. Within the bounds of vast Indian reservations are the Navajo, Apache and Ute—once warrior tribes; and along the river valleys and in the mesa country are the Pueblo, a peaceful sedentary people,
Dude Ranches Vary
New Mezxico’s dude ranches range in activity from a going cow outfit, where the visitor may ride the range with the cowboys, to swank resorts, which compare in comfort to the finest hotel. Within the state are eight na-
j| cause he carved his initials on a
tional monuments, and a national park—Carlsbad Caverns, the world’s largest series of explored caves. Four of the state’s national monuments contain the ruins of a prehistoric Indian civilization, dating back a thousand years. Two others preserve such natural wonders as Capulin Mountain, a recently extinct volcano, and White Sands, a phenomenon made up of nearly 100 per cent pure gypsum, stretching away in a 30-mile desert. Too, there are ancient mission ruins.
Proud of Accommodations
New Mexico's tourist accomodations are among the best, the tourist courts and hotels having become a point of pride in the state. Many courts feature suites of a living room, bedroom and kitchen at nominal cost. The state is served by the Santa Fe Railway, Transcontinental and Western Airlines, Continental Airlines, Santa Fe Trailways and Greyhound busses. There is a state-wide system of all-paved highways, many of Shem links in transcontinental routes.
PRISON BAND NEEDS BASS VIOL PLAYER
FOLSOM PRISON, Cal. (U. P.).— Members of the prison orchestra, composed entirely of inmates, would appreciate it if someone would send them a book on how to play the bass viol. The orchestra was fairly compléte from the standpoint of instrumentation, with the exception of a bass viol. So two convicts obtained permission to make one. They worked for a year, utilizing fish boxes and lard tins for the sound box, a wagon tongue for the finger board and a sled runner for the neck. Strings were the only thing purchased. But, completed, it was discovered no inmate knew how to play it.

Jungle Movies Given Swing of Slapstick
By PAUL HARRISON HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 25.—Ever since the production of “Typhoon,” which was such an exaggerated, though elegantly presented adventyre picture that it was widely regarded as a satire on all the old South Seas hokum, the bosses around Paramount have suspected that it might be profitable to ridicule other types of thrillers. So in “The Road to Zanzibar” a lusty swing with the slapstick is taken at all the jungle films. And this time, from one of the opening shots when Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour are treed by galloping rhinos from some old travelog, there’s no doubt that they intend to be funny. They succeed very well Most of the picture concerns encounters with African savages, and there's even the traditional cooking pot in which the natives plan to fricassee a few movie stars. Another time, the two gents wander into a temple, find some ceremonial drums, and go into a jam session.
UNWITTINGLY THEY send some very insulting messages in jungle code, and furious cannibals converge on the place from miles around. When fierce chiefs hold a shouted conference in their strange tongue, superimposed translations appear on the screen and read like dialog from a Back Bay drawing room. Hope is matched to fight a gorilla and after a minute of Tarzantics the scrap turns into an hilarious burlesque on modern wrestling. Finally the beast heaves Hope out of the cage, then shakes his hands. over his head in the gesture of a champion. At another spot in the picture, Crosby and Miss Lamour are paddling a native canoe through an idyllic setting and she says, “This reminds me of the movies, where the boy and girl are in some lonely, beautiful place and he begins to sing and you hear a whole symphony orchestra accompanying him.” Crosby says yeah, that's the way it is, all right. He ripples the water with his fingers, and a harp plays. Then an orchestra joins in. He and the girl look: astonished, then laugh and go into a duet, 2 8 =» THE HAYS Office-approved version of “Tobacco Road” is being unveiled now, after being filmed in deep secrecy mostly because John Ford loathes all visitors on his sets. My only prediction about the film, due to a wellgrounded respect for Mr. Ford's direction and Nunnally Johnson's adaptive talents, is that the picture will be a lot better than the ' play. Now you'd think that the more objectionable a play was, the less Hollywood would - want it. But 20th-Fox was happy to pay $200,000 for rights to the novel and stage production, and it has paid another $50,000 to launder the story for the screen. Mr, Johnson said, “We. found that the raciness of the play had nothing
to do with the basic story, sO we |
just cut it out.”

end’s audiences will hear not only one of the world’s leading harpists but also one of the busiest artists among the entire tribe of virtuosi. For instance, Miss Dilling has filled 355 engagements (recitals and appearances with orchestras) - in America, Europe and Cuba during the past five seasons, and has played for 85 audiences in this country in a single season. She set a record with 17 London concerts within a three-weeks period, and shares a record with Ignace Jan Paderewski of seven private engagements at the White House during the last three administrations. Miss Dilling was the first harpist to play for a television broadcast, and has made four such appearances. She filled 10 engagements in two weeks for broadcasts from stations in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and followed this with 15 re-engagements as soloist with symphony orchestras in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Belfast. She also made 15 joint appearances with Yvette Guilbert in France, Germany and Great Britain. For her engagement with the Indianapolis orchestra, Miss Dilling will play Renie’s Concerto for harp and orchestra, and Debussy’s Danse
