Which one did she want to ly with foods that you can-depend . keep? “Oh, keep 'em both” she replied,¥ blandly indifferent to the fact that | getting even one hotel reservation in this town is often an achievement of no little note. “Fhere's no use being crowded.” Renewing her acquaintance with finton Wells, meeting Broderick | Crawford, chatting pleasantly with them, Miss Wong says she’s about over the effects of those recent extortion threats. | It took something of a breakdown at Palm Springs to let all of the | nerves out of her system, she admits, but now all s well. When she first received the threats on her life, she | tightened up inside and didn't let off steam Could have loosened things up by tossing a bit of furni- ture around, she knows, but she was at & friend’s house and felt it would not be proper to toss a friend’s furni- ture about. * ok Kk ok NOW she's going back to work.

But 't agreed with her and she's putting an end to loafing right now with a pair Y of stage appearances—one here at the Capitol and the other in New York. | New York, she likes, because it puts | her in contact with people who are doing things. Seems to have given | her a desire to get back in the lists, s0 she probably will be homing back to the Paramount studios before many moons.

She's not different from any other girl, Miss Wong claims, and she doesn't see why she can't be a heroine just once. When she does go back to Holly- wood, however, there will be better things in store. The studio finally | 15 planning to do a series of detective yarns, with Miss Wong on the right side of the law and not the lass who leers around a corner and lures the hero to his doom. It's an idea she's been trying to sell to the studio for a long, long time, and the first scripts, she 8ays, look good. {JUSTICE IS PROMISED FARMERS OF MEXICO By the Assoctated Press. MEXICALI, Lower Calif., May 6.— | Seven thousand small-scale farmers, | encamped about the Governor’s palace | here for nearly two weeks in protest against the government's agrarian | program, awaited today a reply to their appeal for government relief.
