HOW TO CONQUER COURTEOUSLY
EVEN conquest is not what it was in the old days.
The world isn’t getting any more decent or
any more moral but it is getting a darned sight
slicker.
Observe the difference between conquest 1940
model and conquest in the old bad days.
In the O. B. D. the invading army marched in
beat the defenders massacred everybody in sight
stole everything removable and went home leaving
an iron-fisted governor.
These matters have been improved upon in our
enlightened age. Follow the modern procedure:
Th invading army marches in beats the de-
fenders. So far it is all the same. But now it
changes. Nobody is massacred. Nothing is stolen.
The occupying troops are polite not to say courtly.
They pay for everything.
Now follow closely. They pay with special
money all printed up in the home country for the
occasion. The shopkeeper who 3ells a pair of silk
stockings to a trooper is paid in this special money—
let’s call ’em blitz-dollars.
But the invaded country is still using its old tra-
ditional money. Feople will take blitz-dollars from
the invaders but not from each other. So the mer-
chant takes his accumulated blitz-dollars to the na-
tional bank of his country and says here I want old-
fashioned money for these. The bank obliges be-
cause- it must at a rate of exchange set by the con-
querors.
Now watch more closely. The silk stockings
which are goods and therefore valuable have gone
off to the country of the invader. All that the in-
vaded country has to show for them is certain printed
slips fast accumulating in the national bank. If the .
invaded country is to get anything valuable back for
the silk stockings these blitz-dollars must be capable
of being exchanged for other goods.
But they aren’t except in the invading country.
So to get anything back at all for the goods bought
and shipped away for blitz-dollars the invaded coun-
try must buy something from the invader with them.
The invader then offers to take hack his blitz-
dollars for exactly whatever goods he chooses to
dumo on the invaded country at exactly whatever
prices he chooses to charge. The invaded victim has
no choice.
It isn’t business. It isn't quite stealing in the
manner of old-time conquerors riding off with loot
at the saddle-how. Just what it is we scarcely know.
But France and Norway and Belgium and Poland
are finding out.
ONE PEOPLE. GOVERNMENT ARMY
HOW far the plan has gone to enlist a home de-
fense force to replace the National Guard if the
latter is called into active service we don't know.
It is certainly worth considering. But one thing
must be carefully provided:
Any such force must be a legally constituted part
of the U. S. defense forces under their leadership
and responsible to them. It is perfectly all right
that such a force be recruited largely from veterans’
organizations. But though we respect the veterans’
organizations as probably more patriotic and devoted
to their country than any other cross-section of the
people even such organizations should not be allow-
ed to form armed organizations on their own. All
members of any such home defense force should be
serving their government direct and not through
• even the most purely patriotic private organization.
"One people one government one army’* is the
only safe guide.

Well the election is now a thing
of the dim oast. It was a dilly
wasn't It? Did you ever see so
many things decided in such a

But now that it's over we can go

popular upstarts. We can give the
losing candidates here a pat on the
back and a sincere "better luck

wasn't a candidate in the lot we
i would have been ashamed of as an 1

VI/ASHINGTON — Not only Mr.
Willkle'a own Commonwealth
and Southern but every one of its
subsidiaries is being sifted min-
utely in the pan by administration
placer miners. They are looking
for campaign pay dirt and they
are going about It in a very ex-
pansive. If unofficial way.
The job Is in charge of a re-
publican appointee of President
Roosevelt on one of the so-called
Independent commissions of the
federal government. He is working
under the outside guidance of an
old time leading public ownership
man Every government record of
these companies for years past is
coming under their scrutiny.
New Dealers who worked the
same diggings two years ago have
their doubts that the effort is
worthwhile. After the purge cam-
paign against Senator George
failed In 1938. the FBI and some
other federal agencies devoted
themselves assiduously to ascertain-
ing how much money and Influ-
ence the C and S's Georgia power
company had in the unsatisfactory
result. They even went into the
personal florist bills and coal bills
of the president apparently to
make sure he had cast no politic-
al posies and filled no political
stockings. They found nothing there
worth mentioning.
Also a fairly well-known mag-
r.zine man has stolen into town to
rummage the archives for a series
of newspaper articles which are
nipposed to create a campaign
ensatlon by their exposure of
Willkle aa a ring-tailed tycoon.

In
Hollywood
BY PAIL H.¥RRlSON
HOLLYWOOD—Half the stunt
men in Hollywood are working in
a picture at RKO called "I m Still
Alive” and are having some of1
the most terrifying experiences in
their careers. They're acting.
The story is about stunt men
and is reminiscent of the Helen
Twelvetrees-Jack Woody romance.
Anyway a stunt man (Kent Tay-
lor> marries a star (Linda Have**
rnd the picture is full of Jolly
daredevils crashing planes and
wrecking cars and toasting de-
parted comrades at the Grave-
diggers' Club.
There probably are 300 self-
styled stunt men in Hollywood
most of whom are inexperienced
extras who'd risk their necks for
a $5 bill. Actually there are only
22 acknowledged specialists in
peril—experts entitled to a dally
minimum of 135 and on up to
$1000. Most of the 11 hired for
this picture play themselves in
straight dramatic or semi-comic
roles. They dread the acting and
wish the director would hurry up
and get to the good old falls and
crashes.
Of course when the excitement
begins one of them will have to
double for Kent Taylor who is
exclusively an actor although in
the picture he plays a stunt man
who doubles for actors.
• • •
The studio's publicity on this
Picker wtll assure the fans that
it's all very’ realistic—for example
tnat the Gravediggers' Club is a
replica of one in Hollywood to
which these fellow.- belong. That
part Is utter nonsense. Stunt men
never would be so melodramatic.
The nearest thing they have to a
club is a public bar-and-cafe call-
ed the Spare Rib on Santa Monica
boulevard. It's Just a place where
the boys drop In occasionally to
talk about forthcoming Jobs and
exchange tips and prices The first
one called in by a studio to dis-
cuss a stunt names a price and
thereafter no one will underbid
him.
In some wavs these men live
tne most exciting and satisfactory
lives In movledom. Their work Is
never drudgery; each alignment
is a challenge and the better the
Mu'nt man. the less likely he la to
be Injured iBuddy Mason men-
tioned that in 20 years he has
spent only about mx weeks In
hospitals). They make a good liv-
ing. < Yakima Canutt who doubles
in westerns earned $21000 last
year.)
All but one of the 22 are mar-
ried. and their romances seem to
endure a lot better than those of
other Holly woodsmen. When age
begins to add danger to their
trade they usually enter some
profitable sideline. < Floyd Cris-
well. whom 1 saw on the set. owns
58 motorcyles. a fleet of police
cars some ambulances and patrol
wagon* winch he rents to the
studios.)
• • •
The stunters are well known.
liked and thoroughly respected by
all of Hollywood. But studios are
not anxious to publicize the stunt
tr*n who do so much doubling for
the stars. Cliff Bergere. famed
racing driver and veteran of 11
Indianapolis events is the best
known of the daredevil brigade.
Hes in this picture.
Like actors most stunt men are
typed. Bergere explained that he«
seldom called for anything except
an automobile job---collision roll-
over. or dive off a cliff. Alan
Pomerol. heavy-set. almost mid-
dle-aged. is the man every direc-
tor thinks of first for motorcycle
work. Jimmy Fawcett one-time
circus acrobat ball plaver and
vaudeville tumbler is the best
net-diver in town. And so on
through the list.

the practically unknown Janet

story come true. It has come true
many times since and will many

me to study ballet with Ruth St.

Colleen Moore helped me in many
ways and was responsible for
changing my screen name from
Gretchen to Loretta It was she
who told her producer-husband.
John McCormick. I needed another
name Tor the screen and suggest-
ed that of her patron saint. Loretta.
Not until I glanced at the official
list of characters in the picture
which as I remember was “Naugh-
ty but Nice." did I know the change
had taken place.

that made them and you will hear

entertainment for the whole family

are more than 250 organizations of
