Hollywood Sights And Sounds —— By Robbin Coams HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 1-—Funny how historical char- acters, who 1 used to look like George Arliss, have begun to lock like Tyrone Power. A cool million in production value: baby-blue sharkskin shorts she wears in “The Roaring Road.” Gracie Allen’s a redhead for her role in “The Gracie Allen Murder Case"—but not to match George Burns’ face. . . . All the world's a sound stage—and everybody in it wants to help make movies. . Including, the fellow who has several red by the real Jesse James. . . . the lady who tried to r twisted nails taken from the wreckage of the Chicago fire—for “In Old Chicago” . . . the old boy who wrote in with the information that he once owned the property on which Alex- am Bell lived when he invented the telephone, that he saw the first line built and heard the first message over the wires. . (But they'd already written the seript for the biographical movie.) . Then there were the four brothers who sent DeMille their family tree (proving descent from a real Crusader) as tickets for ¢ e into his “The Crusaders.” . But the funniest of all —again on a DeMille picture—concerns the search for a surviving eye-witness of ceremonies joining the Union Pacific and Central Pacific’ railroads. . . . Studio has one, found in the east—but what it dogsn't know is that right here in Hollywood is another —the grandmother of a studio employee. . DeMille’s studio!

Company is moving again to 20th Century-Fox, near Metro. Bungalow again is being dismantled—and every shrub and palm surrounding, tagged as to its exact location with reference to the house, is being transplanted too! . . . But whether Marion Davies will make movies at Zanuck’s lot is still unannounced. . . . Today's best story, if you haven't heard it is the one about Sidney Toler and his mother. Sidney’s mother is 91, but still spry. She sat in a studio projection room with her son while “Charlie Chan in Honolulu” was being unreeled on the screen. She was excited—it was a great big moment. When it was done, she said, “Oh, Sidney, that was wonderful! I enjoyed it so much. The quaint Chinese way you say things is very amusing. And just to think, you're going to be famous all.over the world!” Outside the projection room Toler saw it was raining. “Wait here, mother,” he said, “while I get the car.” THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE WEDNESDAY, M ARCH 1, 1939.- MISS SULLAVAN SINGS TONIGHT IN CAPITOL HIT Shopworn Angel Fea- tured Here with James Stewart as Co-Star American boys recently ex- | peri the thrills of marching away to war. Five hundred young men, ranging from twenty to twenty- | six vears of age, were hired to port- ray World War soldiers for a se- | quence in “The Shopworn Angel, which comes to the Capitol Theatre tonight for an engagement of two days. | The streets on the back lot of the | studio were lined by a crowd of [1000 cherring men, women and | children.

Lemke became Attorney General in 1819 and to- gether they framed a nest of legis- lation that at once delighted the progressive farmers of the state and infuriated the bankers and business men. ' “If you had shot me on the streets of Fargo in 1819 says Lemke, “you wouldn’t even have been pro- | secuted.” Included in their program was creation of the bank of North Da- |kom, mandsitory bonding of state officials, and a state insurance sys- tem for public buildings. ALWAYS ACTIVE Frazier came to the Senate in the twenties and Lemke reached the House in the early 30's. Quickly they teamed up again. They introduced a bill providing for a bank of the United States to supplant the Fed- era] Reserve and take from the pri- vate banking system the power to issue money. They have introduced it every session since. The measure would permit the Government to pay its bills by issuing its own maney instead of borrowing, The two are sponsoring also a bill to refinance farm mortgages at 1'% percent interest. Critics call many of their ideas “crack-pot” but it doesn't faze them. They insist they are right— and sound. “Henry A. Wallace was 100 per- cent for this cost-of-production Plan,” says Lemke, “until he was surrounded by all the mahogany in his present office,” As a Union party candidate for t in 1836 Lemke didn't reap a hlt full of votes.
