The long —anticipated production, herald- ed as Hollywood's super thrill- classic, is said to have been filmed on a lavish scale and is listed as one of the year's outstanding movie projects. Photographed in Techni- color and featuring a cast of thou- sands, the picture has attracted record-breaking crowds at its pre- miere showings. It looms as one of the most successful attractions yet made by Universal studios. Nelson Eddy, Susanna Foster and Claude Rains are co-starred. Dis- | tinguished players in the huge sup- | porting cast include Edgar Barrier, Leo Carillo, Jane Farrar, J. Ed- |ward Bromberg, Fritz Feld and }Hume Cronyn. | The Gaston Leroux composition, lon which the story is based, is re- |garded as extraordinary screen ma- }lerml, combining as it does ro- mance, mystery, music and an ele-| |ment of dramatic terror unique in !literature. The magnificent Paris | Opera, complete in every ornate detail, was reproduced by Universal |for the film and serves as a back- ground for the spectacular melo- dramatic sequences. | | | | AT MARTHA BAZAAR Two of the outstanding features | of the Martha Society night bazam-,i to be held Friday evening from | 7:15 until 10 o'clock, will be a n.sn, | pond and a palmistry booth. A very | {interesting palmist is now in Ju- neau nd will be present to give | readings on this occasion. Many Government Departments Begin Cutting Personnel (Continued from Page One) | labor relation problems. It's paradoxical that at the same | |time these cuts are being made, some war_ agencies are having to get really tough to prevent whole- sale resignations. The War partment (applying only to civilian employees, of course), the War Labor Board and WPB all have had to put the screws on to keer 'key men and important depart- mental staffs, Peace jitters, the| offer of civilian jobs that appear | permanent, and the 'failure ox‘ Congress to vote any reconversion lunemployment insurance for fed-| eral workers are given as the jESasone: : | Always a big headache for per- sonnel supervisors are such tragi- dies as the brutal rape murder of 10-year-old Dorothy.Bérrum, a gov- ernment worker only a few months | {away from her home in Chippewa | Falls, Wisconsin, After such occurrences, the par- ents of hundreds of young govern- ment girls demand”that they re-| turn home. Others leave of their! own accord. | With all the reductions, the man- power problem in Washington and in other government agency centers isn’t over yet, and may not be even in the months that follow V-E Day. The eagerness of many work-| ers to get out of government ser-| vice for one reason or another as peace nears probably will more| than offset the ordered or planned | reductions for some months to come. | JIMMY BYRNES T0 | CONTINUE-IN JOB OF WAR DIRECTOR President’s Secretary Reads Statement to Reporters ‘WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 — Presi- dent Roosevelt- has announced Jimmy Byrnes will continue to be Director of War Mobilization and Reconversion until Germany is de- feated. Byrnes has been serving under temporary appointment, having told the President he didn't want the job on a permanent basis. However, . Presidential Secretary Stephen T. Early called reporters to the office and read them the statement of the President saying, “in view of the importance of con- tinuing winning the war at top speed, and at the personal request of the President, Mr. Byrnes has consented to continue as Director of the Office of War Mobilization | until the eliminafion of Germany from the war.” PALM READER T0 BE ' | | HEDY LAMARR, above, glamorous 'PATRONS GROUP | Williams, Mr. and Mr De- | g | Fletcher, Mr, | drickson \TARGET PRACTICE ia few meetings. | matches. screen star, will temporarily re- m-e from the films.
