- NEA Service Staff Correspondent ;
.~ HOLLYWOOD—CharIes Cronkite is flickerland's
big bembardment-and-battle man. He'll fight at a
_ drop of a contract.
. Mr. Cronkite:doesn’t jook at all like Mars. He is
" middle-aged anl weirs gold-rimmed glasses, 1s soft
_ spoken and mild-mannered. Artillery engagements
*are his livelihood, but his real passion is collecting
stamps.
| He has three kinds of battles in stock—open field,
{“c!ege-or-(m't_ and naval. The latter are toughes\
‘m stage, and often are done in miniature.
© All screen battles are fought with special, non
“eommercial types of explosives. For example, shells
which are detonated by hitting the ground must
give off pright flashes, but the noise isn’t important.
pecause the explosions are dubbed in later.
__Scense showing big guns in action frequently are
made in miniature, with small cannon which boom
?;-with all ‘the fine, rich resonance of a cap pistol. The
“heavy smoke overlaying most battle scenes doesn’\
%;gpme from guns, but from smudge-pots concealc
‘here and- there.
. Aerial firewerks serve as sky-flares and bursting
hrapnel are imitited by special Cronkite shells ac
tually fired from mortars. They contain chemicals
g%lch spray down realistically enough to scare the
daylights out of any ex-infantryman.
"it you provide the locale and the men, Cronkit
will put on a medium-sized scrap for you for §5,000
For this he will use about 500 pounds of explosives.
However, if you want to hurl a couple of whole ar
mies at €ach other, along with earth-shaking bom
bardments, advance barrages, and gas, the cost ¥
likely to run to $30,000.
.lctures such as “All Quiet” and “What Price
Glory” require several tons of bang-up material.
~ Near Hollywood there are 16 battlefields ranging
n area from two to several hundred acres, which
“: ybe rented for martial arguments. They're a.
eovered with trenches and shell-holes and barbed
wire. Only the shell holes aren't made by shell
Put are excavated by shell-hole diggers.
- Before a battle these are covered with flimsy wood
‘en platforms, which in turn are coverd with dus
and sand. Explosives send up showers of earth an
debris, and the gaping holes remain. Very effectiv
~ Conkrite, who hates war, congratulates himself
that so far his battles have been practically blood

NEW SYSTEM FOR THUMBING RIDES
Hitch-hikers, plain every day thumbers,
lhave come to grief of late months for the
reason that motorists are fearful of the
Icharacter of these tourists. All kinds of
'schemes have been employed to attract
lthe attention of autoists, but even at that,
the success of catching a ride has proved
!a]most impossible. So many drivers of au
‘tomobiles have found in those picked up
i for a ride, criminals of the worst type, rob
‘bers and murderers, and mnay robberies
and murders have been committed by
hitch-hikers.
The latest plan for deceiving motorists
was worked on Editor Kirk Sutlive. While
on his return from Athens to Savannah
recently he overtook a man carrying a
gasoline can. Thinking the poor unfortu
nate had allowed his gas to run out, he
immediately stopped his car and invited
the stranger to ride with him. The man
was affable and of good appearance, and
interesting talker, so much so until the
president-elect of the Georgia Press As
sociation became enamored with his new‘
made friend as the time passed swiftly.
Realizing, however, that his new made
mate had ridden for several miles, the ac
commodating young editor turned to the
man and asked how far was it from where
he had left his car. In utter amazement,
the stragger replied, ‘“‘car, I haven’t any
car. This can is carried for the purpose
of attracting attention of motorists who
invariably stop and pick me up for a ride.”
Sympathetic for brother motorists, who
run out of fuel, the young editor picked
him up and had ridden the hitchhiker
miles before he realized that the joke
was on himself, and so he continued riding
his new made friend until he reached a
point where the highway branched off to
Florida. At this point, the man with the|
gasoline can asked to be let out of the car,
stating that he had made his way froml
Boston by exposing the can to motorists. |
The joke finally got out on Editor Sut
live and at the Press Institute meeting in
February, he may be expected to be call
ed upon for an explanation. ‘
The foregoing should be a warning to
him up and had ridden the hitch-hiker
carrying a gasoline can. In this case, the
ec_htor was not murdered, but the next
hitch-hiker to be picked up with a gas
;)lme can may be one of the dangerous
ype. |
. THE UNDERWORLD’S ARMORY
G-men have learned that the under
world organizations are not only strongly
fortified against raids, but that they have
the latest improved guns of all makes.
During the past few years, these gang
sters have come into possession of over 2,-
000 government guns, stolen or purchased
from those who stole them for sale. The
icondition is growing alarming and unless
semething is done to break down this army
'of criminals, government officials will be
at a disadvantage in coping with them.
Attorney General Cummings is very
lmuch disturbed over the activities of the
‘members of the underworld and has ree
ommended to congress that legislation be
enacted placing drastic regulations on the
sale of all firearms, making it practically
impossible for the lawless element to pur
chase such implements of protection.
‘These people are armed to the teeth and
are backed up with a complete arsenal.
It is to be hoped that legislation will be
)enacted during the approaching session
of congress that will carry out the plans
and programs of Attorney General Cum
‘mings,
UNCALLED FCR TREATMENT
An incident that occurred in Gemany
last year where a tract meet was held with
representatives from various nations, com
peting for athletic honors, has been going
the rounds of the press of the country.
Stella Walsh one of the outstanding ath
'etes of foreign countries is traveling in
America. In one of her talks she relatgd
an occurrence taking place in Germany in
wvhich the German athletes refused to take
part in parade before the contest on ac
~ount of a Jewish girl being one of the
~ontestants. In speaking of the incident,
‘Miss Walsh, said:
' “The German women refused at first to
parade around the stadium before the
contest because of the Jewish girl. When
the meet was finished I was sitting with
the Jewish girl when a crowd gathered
around us and hissed her and called her
names. It was some time before the
crowd cleared away.”
Such insulting treatment is beyond com
prehension, and in the future, the German
people in charge of such contests should
be given to understand that such conduct
would be sufficient cause for having all
German teams or individual contestants
t;uled out of the program.
FENCING THE HIGCGHWAYS
The movement inaugurated for fencing
the Coastal Highway from Savannah to
Brunswick is one of the greatest impor-!
tance. Roaming cattle in that section of
the state is a menace to motorists. ’l‘hel
‘number of cattle, hogs, and sheep have
shown. a remarkable increase during the
past year, consequently causing many seri
ous accidents and some fatalities that oth
erwise might have been avoided. |
- Droves of cattle roam the highways.!
grazing from the grass beds that linc the‘
highways for miles and miles. Unless these|
highways are fenced, there is no telling!
to what extent the toll of lives will in-|
crease. ]
There are other highways in that sec
tion of the state that should be fenced,
and if the people in the respective coun
ties through which these highways tra
verse do not fence the Wghways, then the
state should assume the responsibility, Jt
ig a matter in which the whole people are
interested, whether they live in south
Georgia or any other section of the state,

I IN COTTON FUTURES
'Development Aided By
| Exceedingly Tight Spot
l Situation in South.
( By BERNARD S. O'HARA
|Associated Press Financial Writer
‘ NEW YORK.—(P)—Reports of
an exceedingly tight spot situa
tion in southern centers helped to
develop conflicting trends in the
cotton futures market last week.
The December position was firm
throughout to accompaniment of
talk of a possible squeeze inci
id(-nt to its liquidation tomorrow.
+ln & brisk buying movement
l'l‘hursdu_\' this contract rose to
12.08, a peak level for the last sev
eral months.
The spread between December
and October gradually widened
until the former’s premuim amount
ed to around 85 points compared
with a difference of 40 points
early in the month but narrowed
at the end of the week.
Realizing sales were responsible
for a somewhat easier tone in the
last half of the period. Offerings
from professional sources were
fair'y heavy, reflecting desire to
take profits fn view of the consid
erable advance since the start of
the month. Final prices were 5 to
30 cents a bale lower in the near
positions and off 60 to 80 cents a
bale in the distant months.
The census report on ginnings
persuaded some of the -market
analysts to reduce their ideas on
the size of the crop. Fiber ginned
prior to November 14 was placed
at 8,437,000 bales, a decrease of
more than 200,000 bales from last
year when the yield in running
bales was around 9,472,000 bales.
Discussion of the prospect of a
short .crop referred to an “abnor
mal” situation resulting from the
short supply of “free” tenderable
cotton as against the indicated
needs of domestic and foreign
consumers during the rest of the
season.

Retail Stores Will
Employ Half Million
“E ””
xtras” For Xmas
NEW YORK.—(&)—Retail stores
throughout the country will em
ploy half a million extra workers
for the Christmas shopping trade
of November and December, the
National Retail Dry Goods asso
ciation reported today.
Compensation of the group will
amount to a minimrm of $32,000,-
000, the association estimated.
The trade association declared
present indications were that re
tail stores in the United States
directly affected by holiday buy
ing, will have furnished employ=
ment for 196,000 extra workers b’
the end of November, and that
371,000 additional employes would
be put to wrok during December—
a total of approximately 567,000.
Estimates from various quarters,
it added, indicate that the 1936
Yuletide dollar volume will exceed
that of 1934 by 10 percent to 15
percent, and that the Christmas
business transacted across retail
counters will total approximately
four and one-half billion dollars.
