This aeriz]l view shows one of the prison camps set up at Bardia to take care of the steady stream of talian prisoners that came from the Libyan desert port captured by the British.

With *camp sites iand some equipment provided by {the CCC, with other equipment| ! provided by the Army, with work | direction by Agriculture and In- |N‘ri()r Department experts, these camps will offer work for the unof- ficially estimated 6,700 young men} who already have been classified by | | Selective Service as conscientious | objectors. An odd thing about the C.O. work camps is that although Con-! | 8r set them up in the Selective Service Act, no funds were pro- | videdefor financing them, Thus the | actual maintenance of the camps will be financed by the purely pri- | vate National Service Board. There |is a request in Selective Service's 1942 budget for maintenance of | the camps, but Paul C.

With | food, clothing, medical care and I salaries of supervisory personnel, | it is expected that the maintenance cost will run about $35 a man per, | month. 1 | ONE OBJECTOR At least one amusing story has come out of the preliminary plans for the C.O. camps.

[ WOULDJA MIND ‘ WRITIN' DOWN | THAT FIRST i TERM AGAIN? \ snets Taken at Bardia News of the Day Newsreel Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Feb -As if life weren’t complicated enough, here's a lovely lady to inspire more fretting about the injustice of it all. It's Madeleine Carroll. How is anybody ever going to know whether she’s an actress or not? There are about three schools of thought on the subject. One, those who say she's the most beautiful thing in pictures and can't act for sour apples: two, those who say she’s the most beautiful thing in pictures and is a competent performer; three, those who say she’s the most beautiful, etc., and don’t give a hoot whether she can act or not. You note from the above no diversity of opinion regarding the Carroll beauty, but a great variance concerning the Carroll dramatic talents. This leads us straight to the serious heart of the problem: does a beauty have a chance to be an actress? Will Madeleine Carroll ever get an Oscar, even if she earns one? Or will she always be the “decorative,” the “beautiful,” the “adorning” Miss Carroll — just plodding along in a beau- tiful rut of beauty? 22 Belonging personally to School 3 (the don't-give-a-hoot, ete), I still wondered how Miss Carroll felt about her art, and at lunch the other day I bluntly queried. “I'm grateful for whatever looks I have,” she said, “but what T've always wanted is to be an actress. I've even flatteerd my- PERCY’S CAFE i [ ] : STOP AT PERCY'S CAFE Breakiast, Dinner or Light Lunches ® DELICIOUS FOOD ® FOUNTAIN SERVICE © REFRESHMENTS self, sometimes, that little by little I've been making progress in that direction “Thank heaven, I 've more of a sense of humor about it now than when I started on the stage. Then I was sure I'd be nothing short of a second Duse — no matter howw long it took or how hard I had to work. I remember one of my first parts — a four- line bit as a maid. I took it so seriously I wrote to manager: in London that they must.come up to catch me in the play! And then when I had a chance to go into films — I thought I'd never stoop so low, except perhaps under an assumed name and hiding the fact from my friends. They all told me it was the thing to do. More money, and all. So I went into films, and a lot of people are kind enough to say I'm pretty, and I'm glad, because it helps in this business — but I still want to be an actress.” Miss Carroll was wearing a military uniofrm of some sort for “One Night in Lisbon,” and she was looking — #&s usual — beautiful. If you so remarked, she would deprecate a bit, but still not coyly. “I can’t be so impressed, myself,” she might say, “because I have to see this face first thing in the morn- ing — every morning.” 2 All of which doesn’t answer our burning question about Miss Carroll and a possible Oscar — but you knew the answer all along. She can't have one. would know it because she’s a beauty. Even if she out-Betted Davis nobody It's an injustice, it’s an outrage — unless we can persuade Miss Carroll to join School ° 3 and not give a hoot. There ig no substitute for.
