FEATURED STAR IN CAPITOL BILL Deanna Durbin comes to the Cap- itol Sunday in Somerset Maugham's “Christmas Holiday” and the pic- ture puts the star in a distinct de- parture from anything she has done in the past. It is a highly dramatic film, and although Deanna sings a cauple of numbers, the picture repre- sents a decided change from any- thing she has ever done. Her co- star is Gene Kelly, and although he began his film career as a dancer, in “Christmas Holiday" he doesn't dance at all, his role being as dram- atic as Deanna’s. The feature introduces Deanna in a dual characterization, a worldly cafe entertainer, and a charming bride whose world collapses about her when her husband of six menths commits murder. VETERAN By MAJOR TH In addition to the disqualifications for unemployment pay I wrote about { [at the close of my last articie, there duty disability. | is one other. You can’t strike. That is, if you're direcily a party to a labor dispute ' and. you and | others go on strike, you become in- eligible for unemployment pay. How- ever, if you're thrown out of work be- caus2 of a strike, but you're not one of the strikers you can get Lhis bene- fit. The thing of most importance, though, is that we get the right to collect unemployment pay if our dis- charge was other than dishonorable and we had at least ninety days ac- tive service, part of which was after No veteran gone to the Army and Navy for offi- {cial use. Disposition of alcoho] is an art. Most of the confiscated alcohols are seized by the Internal Revenue De- partment for violations of the Ii- quor law repeal and enforcement act. Some has been left unclaimed in government warehouses. Mrs. Ryan says the “good stuff” goes to Army hospitals for medicinal purposes. | Charitable institutions, such as old peoples’ homes, also are entitled to confiscated liquor. Next-best alcohols go to the U. 8. Public Health Service for useé in rub- downs. Others go to the Depart- ments of Interior and Agriculture for experimental work. Some go to the photo laboratories of the War Department. ¥ But the ladies say they dispose of the bulk of it as anti-freeze for In- ternal Revenue and Post Office De- partment trucks! They admitted mingled feelings of desire and duty in handing over 77,- 020 cigarettes to veterans’ hospitals and 10,707 cut diamonds to the Bux- eau of Standards. And it's all in a day’s work for the ladies to unpack, sort and send on to the War Department an assort- U, ALASKA DEANNA DURBIN | BOGART RETURNS IN FILM COMING T0 20TH CENTURY Humphrey Bogart returns to town | |in “Passage to Marseille,” the new ‘Warner Bros. picture opening Sun- day at the 20th Century. | Playing an out-spoken, two-fisted French journalist who has & run-in | with pro-Hitler authorities, Bogart| is banished to Devil's Island, only to make his escape and return to | fight for France in an exciting film |which is part adventure but part as timely as today's headlines. | Michele Morgan plays the roman- Itic lead opposite Bogart and an ex- ;cexlent supporting cast features | Clatide Rains, Philip Dorn, Sydney | Greenstreet, Helmut Dantine, Peter | {Lorre and George Tobias. The film was directed by Michael Curtiz, | who also directed “Casablanca” and | was produced by Hal B. Wallis. Max | Stetner wrote the original music. 1 ——— | $' GUIDE OMAS M. NIAL needs the full ninety days service if he got out because of a line of % | | i | | | The total credit we can get for | number of weeks or unemployment pay Is 52. We accumulate 8 weeks for each of the first 3 months of service. That's 24 weeks. | Any service beyond 90 days gives us credit for four unemployment- pay weeks for each month. So if we have, say, a total of 10 months of service, we'd get 24 weeks for the first 90 days plus four weeks each for the next seven months. That would be 28 weeks added to the 24 we got for the qualifying 90 days. Total 52 weeks — the maximum al- lowed for any veteran. There are now over 25,000 veterans weekly drawing unemployment pay. ‘This number may not be too large, considering the persent million and a half or more veterans; but the percentage is growing like a spider’s web on a quiet summer day. The actual number beats the 13,000 wise yeterans who are using the GI Bill's education privileges. 4 Today, there are plenty of job op- portunities where a veteran can still help in the war struggle. Also an ex-GI can get a drink of trainihg for his future life—on the house. Bo there should be small need for vet- erans to draw on their governmenit unemployment pay accoumts. . | | Indicating that officials = of the Veterans' Administration are dis- turbed, General Hines expressed some apprehension recently when he sald: * “I have cautioned veterans not fo apply for these allowances unless it is absolutely necessary. They are like one-way bank accounts—the moriey drawn out will not be replaced. ‘When exhausted, that is the end. “In addition, veterans should keep in mind ‘that benefits received un- der the 'GI Bill shall be charged against any future adjusted com- pensation which may be provided for veterans of the present war.” | This last reference is, of course, to LENTURY Talented BELITA “LADY LET'S DANCE" —The Big Ice Extravaganza— LAST TIMES TONIGHT!
