VERSATILE STARS NOW APPEARING IN CAPITOL FEATURE i Two of filmdom's most versatile |men play together in Republic’s new comedy-drama, “The Inside | Story,” which stars Marsha Hunt, Willilam Lundigan, Charles Winni- |ger and Gail Patrick, playing to- I night only at the Capitol Theatre. Portraying an innkeeper and his clerk in the delightful movie are long-time friends Gene Lockhart and Winninger, living personifica- tions of Shakespear's “One man in his time plays many parts.” The pair are typical of stage stars turned \movie actors. | Winninger has had a long, varied career which ranged from playing ,trap drums to producing, directing |and starring in Broadway hits. Back {in 1911, he coached young Will Rog- rs for a stage debut which started {the humorist on the road to fame 'and fortune. To keep busy between | films, Winninger began painting as a hobby and became so good that 1his friends beg for his canvasses. | Lockhart, similarly, wrote and di- rected countless Broadway shows be- fore taking up radio writing. He | wrote over 200 sketches and the lyr- lics for “The World Is Waiting for The Sunshine,” jon the Great White Way. | A SRR SRR | 'COMMUNITY EVENT | | TODAY :At 7:30. p.m.—Board of Equaliza- I‘ tion, Juneau Independent School dent of Schools.

A stocky, dark-haired man in his early forties, Weisband is a Rus- sian-born, naturalized American. Before the war he was a hotel clerk in Los Angeles. In 1942 he entered the Army and was later commissioned a lieutenant. (Note: Weisband's pretty, raven- haired wife, a North Carolina girl, whom he married 18 months ago, | was also fired from the same gov- ernment agency. However, the FBI does not suspect her of being mixed up in any spying. Voteless Americans The world looks upon Washing- ton as the heart and hope of Dem- ocracy, yet here are some unbe-' lievable facts about the U. 8. cap- ital: Only two capital cities out- side the iron curtain do not per- mit their citizens to vote—Wash- ington D. C. and Canberra, Aus- tralia . . . Our American forefathers than those in 25 of the 48 states, still get no voice in how those taxes are spent . . . Congress has granted suffrage to the natives of Guam, but still denies it to the gitizens of the national capital .. . Because American citizens living m Washington have no vote, Congress problems. Last year Congress spent more than 3,000 hours on local district matters . . . gress to govern the sale of rock fish, to determine whether butter should be served at,St. Elizabeth’s Hos- about a herd of goats in the Dis- trict of Columbia . . . Once Con- gress had to interrupt the debate on the Marshall Plan to give D. C. officials the right to tear down a pair of old gateposts . . . A Gallup poll shows that the public over- whelmingly favors giving their fel- low Americans in Washington the right to vote. Both the Repub- lican and Democratic parties have pledged home rule for the people of Washington. Yet Congress has ignored all this and pigeonholed the “home rule” bill. Bean’s Dopesheet : ‘Washington's noted poiitical dopester, Louis H. Bean, has given intimates some private postscripts Midterm Battle.” Though forecasting defeat for the big guns in the Senate, Bean ad- mits a number of “fuzzy factors” make a prediction on the coming elections difficult. “One is Korea,” says Bean. “If the war draws public attention away from politics, it might re- duce the turnout of voters, which would hurt the Democrats in the big industrial centers.” This happened in 1942 when many people failed to vote, because | they were moving around and| couldn’t register, or had good jobs and just weren’t interested in mid- term congressional elections. This, plus a possible ‘“protest” vote by those who blame the ad- ministration for higher living costs, won’t help the Democrats. On the other hand, Bean foresees the Itkli- hood of a possible downward trend in #solationism this November, which would help Democratic can- didates. “The fact that we are at war probably - will undercut the isol+ ationist fssue and prove beneficial looked like sure losers before the Korean invasion,” the political seer ohserves.
