HITLER TO ANSWER ROOSEVELT Berlin, Germany—The Reich stag has been called to meet April 28th, to hear Chancellor Hitler’s answer to President Roosevelt’s plea to Germany and Italy to pledge themselves to 10 years’ moritorium on war. If G;rman newspaper comment is any criterion, the President’s sug gestion will be turned down flat. It has been termed by the press . as ‘‘arrogant, hypocratical, theat j rical, infamous and grotesque”, i Washington, D. C.—Word from South and Central America re publics indicates widespread ac claim for President Roosevelt’s ! plea for at least 10 years of world 1 peace. Congressional comment was generally favorable to the plan, with little hope, however, j for its acceptance by the totali- I tarian countries. Great Britain, France and Russia indicated a I willingness to share in the Presi j dent’s desire for worldwide dis armament.

The slender flyer uses the plane in “The Flying Irishman,” screen story of his career and “wrong way” flight to Ireland. “I painted the name ‘Sunshine’ on the ship in 1927,” he said, “and in all my flights that year back and forth across the country I ran into bad weather, head winds and rain. So before I set out for New York in July, 1938, I took off the name. And I’ve never had bad weather since. “But,” he added, “though the name is off the ship, I still call her ‘Sunshine’ to myself.” —o Hot Air Gets Used For Stormy Scenes Hot air is one of Hollywood’s most prevalent commodities; one finds it in great quantities with out the asking. But when Paul Widlicska, special effect man for] Samuel Goldwyn, set about gen-i erating two entire sound stages* full of it, some comment was forthcoming. It was no idle prank of Wid licska’s, but a very necessary ad junct to production of Goldwyn’s picturization of Emily Bronte’s “Wuthering Heights,” now show-1 ing at the Palace Theatre through United Artists release. Closeup scenes were being shot in which Merle Oberon and!

SPENCER ______ <, SCHOOL TEACHERS Sometimes the sounding board of time sends back an echo; mis chievous youth becomes success ful adult. The name sounds famiL iar. It should, it is the name of * a youngster who was the pride and worry of his teachers. His head was a tousled mass of un combed hair, his face was cover ed with freckles and among them were two sparkling eyes. His body v bubbled with oenei\gy like steam within the boiler of a Idcomotive ready to exert itself instantly on any prank, game or work. How to guide this pent up en - ergy into con structive channels was the ques tion confronting his teachers. Our school teachers do more than instruct their pupils in the three R’s. These men and women are examples of cheerful optim ism; every child in their care is a potential leader and they strive to bring out his latent talents. Infinite patience and the wisdom of a Solomon are necessary to find a correct solution for his prob lems but sympathetic understand ing is a virtue almost universal in teachers. Children yesterday, leaders to day! They should give credit to those kind, optimistic and sympa thetic School Teachers of their childhood for their crown of suc cess. 3t CWs £Nb (More’ jJPPPI I SPENCER'S JIWCT FUNERAL HQM£j,|igygj
