“By KATHLEEN’ TV audiences are going “feature film mad,” according to Variety.

1 beg. to differ. It's the TV

stations that have lost their heads over this cheap and easy form of programming. Rental on the better films may run to $1000 or La more, but the irritating com -

films — they are always good for a laugh. I wonder what the kiddies think when they see their _ favorite cowboy, ‘Bill (Hopalong Cassidy) Boyd, cast as a darkhaired lover in some of the oldjes?

‘Hot Toddy’ Gets Ann

Back in Court Again |

By DONNA MIKELS It's one thing if a 72-year-old woman takes a “hot toddy” for a cold. It's- another thing if that old lady is Ruth Ann (Whisky Ann) Grant, now past the 300-arrest mark with some 189 of those ar-

came up before Judge Scott Mec-{

Donald in Municipal Court 4 today, on a drunkenness charge the second day im a row. The last time anybody bothered to count up her six-page record, Ruth Ann was ‘way past the 300 mark on arrests and nearing the 200-mark on drunk charges.

Cuff or Cash Consumer

Is Key, Credit Men Told

By HAROLD HARTLEY Times Business Editor BLOOMINGTON, May 22 — If we're going to have prosperity, the consumer will have to buy it. And if he can’t pay cash, he'll have to put it on the cuff. That's what Paul L. Selby, executive vice president of the Na. tional Consumer Finance Association sald in regard to present living standards before 200 of the nation’s top consumer credit men here today. “The consumer pays the bill for every step of the whole industrial system. As a reward he receives all of the things which make up a higher standard of living, an abundance of goods, based on his own integrity, self respect and :onfidence in the future, “In 50 years we've gone from the washboard to the automatic washer from milk crocks in the spring house to big refrigerators, from the coal grate to automatic heating, from oil lamps to electric lighting, from buggy to auto. Wage Earner the Key “We eat fresh foods the year around. has to go tod “the eighth grade, college at] are common,” he said. And most of these things are due to the extension of spendable income through credit. ‘The wage earner, he sald, foots the bill for the enfire prodistribution and cone

Adequate Down Payments “The good merchants are sell- | ing merchandise, not terms. The better stores are still asking adequate down payments and hoMing the payment period to| 18 months with the exception of autos.” The conference, which will measure the delicate status of consumer credit, will also hear, Robert A.
