The film is “Voice in the Wind.” Francis Lederer, one of the screen’s most popular actors, is| starred in a role that requires that {he play two different characters. He enacts both the part of Jan Volny, {his musical ability as a weapon against the Nazis, and that of a half-mad wanderer, El Hombre, who seeks a clue to his own identity. Co-starred with Lederer is Sigrid {Gurie in a role which gives her full opportunity to demonstrate her many dramatic talents. Miss Gurie |plays Volny's sweetheart; a woman | who follows her love across two con- |tinents, to a place of desolation and !d(‘:\Lh. | The two stars receive outstand- ing support from a cast which in- cludes such fine character actors as | Alexander Granach, J. Carrol Naish, |David Cota, J. Edward Bromberg, Olga Fabian and Luis Alberni. - GOVERNOR CITES FEDERAL AID TO POSTWAR PLANS Addressed to the mayors of all |principal Alaska cities, a telegram |has been dispatched by Gov. Ernest Gruening pointing out Federal Gov- ernment action through the Feder- al Works Agency making available to Alaska the sum of $84,875 for aid in post-war planning. -The Governor stressed the need! | for communities to look over their| ilists of post-war projects and de-| ! Behind an expert mound per- termine those of primary importance on which to expend the money made available. He brought out that the current appropriation is only for ad- vances on projects which may be au- thorized. The money is to be used for en- gineering and economic surveys,| plans, studies and specifications. | Cities must be in position to finance their own projects as there is no liability on Congress to appropriate | such public works as the cities may| seek to undértake during the post- war period, the Governor stated, FAIRBANKS TOP ALASKA CITY IN Fairbanks leads Alaska’s cities in| |Series “E” War Bond sales during the Seventh War Loan, according to |figures through May 26, released to- |day by the War Finance Committee headquarters here.
