- (Orson Broke, But Happy
Man From Mars Busy on New Film Role.
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 15. — The blizzards blew across the moors at 20th Century-Fox today. Jess Wolf, the demon special-effects man, personally was spraying the snow on the landscape with a hose which led from a ine that was chopping 100-pound chunks of ice down to mint julep size. Three wind machines roared and icy blasts whipped around the corners of ancient Thornfield hall. Through this maelstrom of the elements trod a figure tm a fur coat that 2 to his ankles, Orson Welles. “This is wonderful,” said he. brings out all the ham in me.” At Work in ‘Jane Eyre’
He rubbed the ice out of his eyebrows and shed that fur coat (he said it would be a wonderful garment for a| kidnaper) and we sat him down for a session of winnowing the true from the false. He had been at work for six weeks now in “Jane Eyre,” co-starring with Joan Fontaine, and the Welles legend has been growing out of bounds. t, we asked him about reports that he set loose a platoon of trained rats to confound the denizens of the gray-carpeted producers’ building. “Not strictly true,” the Welles reported. “I do not know why it is that when perfectly ordinary things happen around me, they always seem to be built up out of all proportion. The rat thing could have happened to anybody (sez he) and I insist I had nothing to do with it.
The Rat Got Lonesome
“What I had was an eccentric character performing as my secretary and she loved rats. She kept one rat in a cage and I kind of liked it myself so I kept it on my desk. And it seemed lonesome, so I bought another rat to keep it company. cage of baby rats and their mother. So everyth was lovely until those rats got 1 among the producers. And some! difficult to tell which was which. Imagine me, saying any such thing.” We said we couldn’t imagine that, and what abput his horse and buggy interfering \with traffic all over Hollywood? “A very simple thing,” Welles said. “For usands of years people have n riding in buggies. suppose more people have ridden in buggies inn any other thing. So it was ectly natural for me to want a hi and buggy. I bought same. I drove same. And people would look at me and think I was crazy. And| me, just following a normal d I had fo give my horse away and sell my buggy. Made me very unhappy. The horse, 100.” | And how about ‘the published stories that Welles, himself, almost died of double pneumonia. “A slight cold,” he said. All of this, of course, is intended to indicate all is well with our favorite man from Mars, the lad who makes headlines daily in spite of himself. He’s broke. It’s true. But that is nothing unusufl.

SENATE T0 SCAN POST-WAR PLAN
George Proposes Special Committee to Explore
Economic Needs.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. (U. P.). —The senate will take its first step today toward entry into the controversial field of post-war planning. Chairman Walter ¥. George (D. Ga.) of the senate finance committee will offer a resolution for establishment of a special senate committee on post-war economic policies and plans. "He would create a nine-member: committee, with five Democrats and four Republicans appointed by Vice President Henry A. Wallace. “Post-war ‘economic policies and plans may be elsewhere developed,” George said. “Finally the responsibility rests with congress. This resolution recognizes the responsibility of the congress to the people of the United States for our postwar economic policy.” There is a great difference ‘of opinion in congress on the role the United States should play in the post-war world. One of the major controversies is over post-war commercial aviation. Wallace has advocated that permanent peace be guaranteed by free international commerce based on freedom of the seas and freedom of the air.
' Hits Star Gazers
Wallace's most outspoken critic is Rep. Clare Boothe Luce (R. Conn.), who has denounced his proposals as “globaloney.” : “It is my deep conviction, ? Mrs. Luce said last Saturday night, “that the overwhelming mass of Americans have no patience with and will not much longer tolerate either the star gazers or the ostriches who are, though small in numbers, to be found in high places among us. Any statesman or politician who advocates a program ., , . which will drive down the American workingman’s living and wage scale standards, in order to raise those of peoples in foreign lands, is doomed to instant and violent repudiation.” Wallace and Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt have denounced Mrs. Luce’s philosophy. American-born Viscountess Astor, member of the British parliament, last week said she was “horrified , . . appalled . . . shocked” at Mrs. Luce’s statements,

GUADALAJARA, Mexico, Feb. 15 (U. P.) —Declaring she has no intentions of remarrying soon, actress Ann Sheridan returned yesterday to Los Angeles. Miss Sheridan told reporters she planned to return to Mexico again soon. She said she liked bull fights very much. Asked if she were: contemplating marrying a bullfighter, she quipped: “No, I like the bulls more than the bullfighters.” As for rumors she might marry Errol Flynn, she said she considers him a “sincere friend,” nothing more.
APPOINTMENT BILL IS PUSHED
Would © Require Senate’s 0. K. on All Jobs Above $3800 Yearly.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—Senator Frederick VanNuys (D. Ind.), chairman of the senate judiciary com-
McKellar bill to require “advice and consent of the senate” on all appointients of federal officeholders receiving more than $3800 a year probably would be approved by the full committee and passed by the senate.
last week, Senator McKellar (D. Tenn.) agreed to lower the $4500 figure in his original bill to $3800, and- to eliminate a section which would have limited all appointments to four years from the date of senate approval.
Bureaucracy Rampant
Mr. McKellar estimated that about 35,000 government positions would be affected, but other estimates run as high as 70,000. The bill is opposed by the civil service commission, the League of Women Voters, the C. I. O. and other organizations which contend it is a move to extend senate patronage. But, Senator VanNuys said, “with bureaucracy rampant,” congress is no wgetting the blame for actions and policies of administrative officials over whom it has! absolutely no control. The present system, Senator MeKellar charges, is “the greatest patrontage organization under the sun. President Mitchell of the civil service commission and his assistants are selecting most of the high-rank-ing administrative officials, and may
soon be selecting cabinet members.”
Times Special NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—The lower
I|Fifth Ave. murder of Carlo Tresca,
69-year-old philosophical anarchist, leader of Italian anti-Fascists and friend of Mayor LaGuardia, is one month old and both the police and the district attorney are as baffled by it as ever. What New York believed was its first political assassination, in decades has developed an abundance of possible and conflicting motives but scarcely a clue..

Tresca was shot late at night on Jan. 12 as he left the office of his newspaper, II Martello, a block from Union square. The as-assin drew up in a sedan, fired three shots and sped off. The next day police found what they said was the murder car, parked two blocks away, and a revolver in a nearby ashcan. By a freak of chance the state parole board discovered that only a short time before the murder two of its parole officers had seen a

Widely liked for his genial good humor, Tresca was intensely prolabor and showed pride in his 36 arrests, most of them arising out of strikes. In 1923 he became a national figure when the government sent him to Atlanta for a year because he published a birthcontrol advertisement.
