And with bodies like those of |Virginia Mayo, Ann, Dvorak and Carole Landis it's no wonder that Geerge Brent and Turhan Bey get involved in all the hilarious compli- cations of Eagle Lion's delighttul new comedy-romance, “Out of the Blue,” which began an extended en- gagement last night at the Capitol Theatre. ) It seems that George Brent, de- spite the fact that ne's completely dominated by his wife, Carole Lan- ‘dis. is not oblivious to the charms | iof the various callers of his next| door neighbor, artist Turhan Bey, who does m of his work at ‘home. And his work requires a long series of lovely ladies to pose for| (him. i When Bey's prize dog turies a ibone on the Brent terrace, Miss Landis insists that legal action should be taken. But in the mean- | ‘time, glamorous Virginia Mayo, Philadelphia debutante and lovely enough to, be one of Bey's models, jcomes calling on the painter, object {matrimony—for their dozs. { When Miss Landis is called away for the weekend, Brent becomes |involved with Ann Dvorak, artist’s 1model, lover of f'ne liquors and pos- sessor of a weak heart.

Joan Fon- taine is starred, and playing oppo- site her is a young newcomer, Mark Stevens, whose performance is cap- tivating, in harmony with that ot the star. Romance, drama and comedy are | depicted in this realistic slice of life. It is a heartening demonstration of how a young married couple can ride safely through the modern trials and tribulations which, too often wreck people’s lives. - - (OMMUNICATIO SAWYER'S LANDING, Alaska, | January 1.—Editor of The Empire: | Well, here we go again off on an- other spending spree by Governor Gruening calling a special session of the Territorial Legislature, just a few days kefore the newly elected Legislature would be in session any- how. It seems to me if Gov. Gruemng! were interested in getting us out of the red, he could have waited a .ew days until the regular session a little later this month. That is one of the reasons we are in the red, he never stops to think. We certainly have more income | cday than we had during prohi-| tion days. We were not always running out of money in thos: days. f we can't make a better showing with all of our liquor licenses we had better go back to prohibition. We sure are not getting anywhere with that money. About more taxes, well, I am sure we need more, but where to get| them?

I mean an out of out of incorporated towns, and pat ented mining claims, and more tax- es on all business in the Territory. | There are millions of dollars worth |of property outside of incorporated towns, such as canneries and min- ing properties. Let’s tax them, and inot put all of the taxes on the working man. Everybody knows that most of the work in the Territory is seasonal with the exception of government employees, grocery clerks and bar- tenders. My income for 1948 was $675.48. I had to cut my expenses down during the winter months. So let’s wait until the regular session of the legislature and not call the special session. Let's save a little where we can and balance the bud-i get. Sincerely yours, J. H.
