Hollywood, April ?Alice in , j
Vonderland was able to Delieve j
hree impossible things at once, j g
Her feat is trivial compared to {g,
the stunt of research workers in'
motion pictures who answer hun- I C)
dreds of impossible questions | a,
every day. |ti
They function in large rooms; g
paneled with books and files, and j n
if the answers are not on their cj
tongue-tips, they are at their fin- C(
(gertips, or will be in a moment.; U]
They are not surprised at any j y
question. They cannot be sure g
any question is foolish. j ^
In making every film, at least ^
500 separate questions on detail c(
are asked at the research depart-' jr
ment. The number doubles when u,
Demille makes a picture like "The ! p,
Crusades" or when George Zukor r
does "David Copperfield". j e}
From a day's haul of answers j w
we cull these: i _
In the better class of Paris!
merry-go-rounds in 1904, half the j
mounts were unicorns or swans, ?
the rest ponies. The buttons on j
General Garibaldi's red shirt were ! '
I bone-color. Othello wasn't black, I 0
but a cafe-au-lait tone. Mississippi ?
I steamboat barkeeps made import- f
ed French cognac of day-old ?
moon-shine. Exogamy prohibits
marriage between members of the '
same tribe.
The Kaiser used a Benz auto- n<
mobile to escape from Germany.
I The pulpit should be on the left L
or gospel side of the altar in 11
the church of England. The Un- j g
iversity of Georgia was the first I
state university. The expression,
"eat drink and be merry" is'
found in Isaiah 22:13, Corinthians V
I 35:32 and Ecclesiastes 8:15.
Robert Bruce was in a cave i
I when the spicier spun the web
which made his enemies think
no one was there. He was in a
hut when he earned lessons in
persistence watching a spider spin
his web. Charles Dickens began ht
to grow a beard at 27. t cl
I These are common facts that' tii
everyone should know. The ex-1 jr;
perts never feel they are work- e(
ing until they excavate a ton of th
books and a btnrul of photos to nc
find out the shape of loves in g;
Afghanistan, head-dresses in Cen- m
tral Africa, or flower patterns |
or barber shop mugs in pre-civil' cl
war Natchez. ae
When a director or his assist- to
ant wants a fact, he wants it. th
He may war.t to know when U;
match-lock guns went out, or m
when Gregorian chants came in. tie
There isn't much literature in 28
I these work rooms. They aren't j wi
libraries: they are storehouses of w:
I information. But many books are of
of extreme value, such as revorts
of Napoleon's expedition to "~
Egypt, 20 vollumes in gold-stamp-' *
ed Morocco leather. Also, the i
shelves of works on Zulu weapons,
gypsy-lore, cookery, armour, j
I dogs, piracy, gardening, cowboy j
songs and astronomy.
I There are files of the illustrated
London News, punch and Ger-1
man art periodicals, going back j
90 years.

that remark about the mouse-trap

voice, and at least five times a
day. ;
Who got it off? Golly, I don't j
know. Wait a minute; I'll call

"This means that for a cotton

mtract agreeing to reduce his s
creage from 25 to 35 per cent t
lis season," says Dean I. O. c

lling also means that no farmer e
in get a loan on cotton in ex- c

nder the Bankhead Act. Since 1
ie AAA will try to allot to each ?
rower about 65 per cent of his f

ites that every grower should

tone likely will be permitted to

pool and through the couny
agent. The price will be around
5 percent of the whole Bankhead
ax.
For that reason it will profit
ew growers to produce more
han their probable Bankhead atotment.
Most growers know
ibout what 65 percent of their
>ase production is and can figure
in the amount of cotton on which
hey will be able to secure govirnment
loans this fall. Any other
iotton produced will necessarily
lave to be sold on the open market
for whatever price the growtr

or the tax exemption certifiates.

these Junior Home Makers
inll have that in charge. In the

Mrs. Proctor, in accord with
ther ERA authorities, believes
hat this is one of the greatest
onstructive actions that the or;anization
has taken since its ineption.
Mrs. Proctor said today

The maximum amount of an in- j

the minimum $10. However, no

I Likewise, the amount for other

"In my opinion with normal

Mr. Fenner, who is a member
of the North Carolina General
Assembly and is chairman of the
code authority, was not so sure
about the price estimate but
agreed that the crop would be
about 720 million pounds.
Mr. Fenner did the testifying
before the Senate committee and
declared that the code has been
an "unmixed blessing" and that
the only need of change is for
"more teeth." He told the committee:
