Meanwhile the studios, hearken- ing to the 40 per cent decrease in movie attendance last year, are remembering that a shekel saved is a shekel earned no matter how those efforts fare. Studio chieftains are introducing economies much more constructive than the mere laying-off of hired hands and the trimming of minor employes’ salaries. And youthful talent in several movie fields is profiting thereby be- cause youth does not demand the weather man had promised ap- peared over the calm Pacific.

Their salaries, drawn every week even when not working, are added to the cost of any production in which they appear, and studios find it much cheaper to employ them as free-lance artists when needed.

(Jim) Cornwall, hut broadcasts of the latest fash- ions are a total loss so far as women of the Arctic are concerned. Jazz and classical music or drama- tic presentations are welcomed, he adds. But when madame of the alr tells in dulcet tones of filmy gar- ments or decrees the latest walst- line, Eskimo women just yawn and tell “Uglak” to turn on a station with a little pep. “The radio is a great boon to the trapper—gives him the latest fur prices and all that,” Colonel Corn- wall said. “One trouble, however, with some trappers,” he added, “is that they spend so much time listening for the broadcast of fur prices that they forget to trap.” — Bring us yuur raw Zfurs to bs made up.
