“Salute to the Marines” is a salvo of
entertainment—from the mighty stu
dios of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
It’s a fight-filled, love-filled, laugh
filled story that doesn’t pull its punches.
'★ ★ ★ ★
Wallace Beery is a leather-lunged
Marine who has to cool his heels while
the big battles elude him! To a Beery—
that’s bad news!
★ ★ ★ ★
More bad news is his private battle
with his wife. For Fay Bainter (who
plays the lady) favors pacifism and
tries to harness Beery to a rocking
chair in the bargain!
★ ★ ★ ★
Not in the bargain—is the Japs’ sur
prise attack on the Philippines!
Beery busts loose, musters up the na
tives. and stages a delaying action that
includes some of the most stirring front
line scenes you’ve ever seen.
★ ★ ★ ★
For a bright, romantic interlude in a
Technicolor picture watch Marilyn
Maxwell who plays the part of Beery's
attractive daughter.
★ ★ ★ ★
"Salute to the Marines” will give you
a lift!
★ ★ ★ ★
It’s got what it takes to give you a
great thrill!

W. R. C.—Several years ago I
promsed my mother that I was go
ing to build her a home this spring
Now I have been called to the ar
my and won’t be able to do it.
Should we try to have it done or
just wait?
Ans: Put it off for the duration.
Materials can’t even be bought to
build a new place right now. You
probably couldn’t get the labor if
you had the materials. Put youri
money in Government Bonds and
[wait until you return from service
before carrying out this plan. The
possibility is that you will want to
build a duplex. There is no doubt
but that you and the charming
little miss you are rushing now
will want to live in your own little

fight and keep up the devil all the
time. I am tired of this. I want
to get married someday and live
happy like other women. Please
tell me what to do so my dream
will come true?
Ans: Leave and go into the city
and find a job. Go to church and
other nice places and try to make
some new friends. My one sug
gestion is not to become too at
tached to any one man and give up
your freedom... .do this only when
you are safely married. You can
find a husband if you try but you
won’t be able to living there with
another man.

good money and I want to know
if he is just a cheap-skate or
what?
Ans: You have him figured out
pretty well_he isn’t going to
part with his money if he can put
off by making promises. If you
think you can “pull his leg,” you
are in for a big surprise.this
old boy is going to hold tight to ev
erything he has.

| B. W.—The quiz is concerning
my brother in law. Is he really
trying to propose to me behind my
sister’s back? I have been engag
ed two times and when I tell him
about it, something happens to
throw me off. Is he my stumbling
block?
Ans: Stay away from him alto
gether if you feel he is thinking
too much of you. It would never
do to allow him to make love to
you behind the back of your sis
ter. Keep your business to your
self.... don’t tell anyone your plans
until you carry them out. My sug
gestion is that you make friends
and get out more often with the
single boys and associate less with
your Sister and her husband.
*****
D. F.—Reading your column is
one of the joys in my life. I’m
studying real hard trying to be
come a Domestic Science Teacher.
Do you think I will reach my goal?
Ans: You’re bound to succeed..
_keep up the good work. You are
fortunate in knowing what you
want to do when you finish college.
_.. so many young people fail to
make up their minds until they are
through college. Work out your
schedule with the instrctors and
they can inform you just what you
must take in order to become a
teacher in Domestic Science.
F. E. B.—I have trouble explain
ing the true facts of managing the
bills with the money we have.
When X can’t meet them, all I get
is an ugly face and he says “I give
you all I have and I don’t see what
you do with the money I give you 1
to save my life.” Yet he knows it
is more than I can handle. I ex
plain this to him that he makes ad
ditional bills before I can pay off
the old ones he makes and he just
flies off the handle.
Ans: Little does he realize that
you can’t stretch money....the
fact is he knows darn well that he
would never make ends meet and
prefers to put the whole responsi
bility on your shoulders. Continue
to do your best for it is better this
way than never to see the money
at all. Write out an itemized
statemetn of your monthly bills
and the outstanding debts and let
him see that you are trying to get
straight with the world again. It
may have some influence on his
making new debts.

CANADA LEE PLAYS OPPOSITE
NEW FIND IN "LIFEBOAT”
Something new in Hollywood sue
-cess stories is the story of young
John Hodiak, the Gable-like new
comer who popped out of nowhere
to win the male lead opposite Tal
lulah Bankhead in ‘‘Lifeboat’’ at
20th Century-Fox.
Hodiak’s story is no saga of star
vation and struggle, of forcing the
breaks by sheer persistence. Nei
ther is it an epic pf overcoming
Hollywood’s indifference by ingen
ious maneuvers.
"I’ve always been a firm believer
in the Fates,” says John, with a
seriousness that is unmistakably
sincere. "I’ve always felt that if
I were the guy to do something, I’d
be sought out to do It.”
A year ago, turned down by the
Army, he was sitting around- Chi
cago, waiting for something to hap
pen. Meanwhile, lie was earning
a pretty fair living as a radio act
or, having originated the charac
ter of “Li’l Abner” on the air. He
had an urge to get to Hollywood
some day, but he did nothing to ac
celerate the day. He turned down
five movie offers that came along
There was no urgency about them.
They didn’t sound like destiny in
disguise.
Then something happened. He
was suddenly summoned to New
York to test for a he-man role in
a Merchant Marine picture. For a
shipmate in the ttst, he had Canada
Lee, the young Negro actor who
had just won the Drama Critic’s
Award in ‘‘Native Son.” As a re
sult of the test, John' was signed
by MGM.
That Merchant Marine picture
still hasn’t been made, but in the
nine months since then, he has
played three small parts, all char
acter parts, the latest being a 40
year old guerrila leader in "Song
of Russia.” Meanwhile, not trying
to force the issue, he has sat ar
ound and waited for the one role
intended for him.
i He was "thunder-struck” when
he was told that he had been bor
rowed by Director Alfred Hitch
cock for "Lifeboat,” suspenseful
drama about nine people adrift in
26 foot boat in mid-Atlantic. Not
only had John made no conscious
effort to catch Hitchcock’s apprais
ing eye. He hadn’t even dreamed
that Hitchcock might be interested
in an unknown.
It puzzled him how the miracle
had happened.
"I finally found out,” he reveal
ed on the set, looking tall and
,rugged and capable of taking com
mand of the boat, as ordained in

for an actor to play ‘Joe,’ the Ne
gro stewart who is one of the sur
vivors. He saw the test Canada
Lee had made in New York and, on
the basis of that test, signed him
for the role.
“Then, about two weeks later, he
said to Kenneth Macgowan, the
producer, ‘Let’s have another look
at that Canada Lee test.’ They
were getting around to casting the
par of ‘Kovac,’ the oiler. Hitch
cock suddenly remembered there
was a young guy in that test with
Canada, only he hadn’t noticed him
particuarly the first time. So he
looked at the test again. And that
was how I got the role.”

“NIGGERS ’; RESTRICTS

THEY’RE UNTRAINED
(Continued from page 1)
“There is too much waste in
these mess halls. These nigg ;rs
eat too damn much meat and bread
and not enough vegetables.”
Added to this stinging insult are
the alleged plans of Gen. Almond
to heighten .hi§ stature in the army
by sending unprepared men over
seas as a fighting unit. One army
private said that “if the Japs or
Germans saw us coming they would
augh themselves to death.”
“Instead of training for combat
through the techniques of handi
ng ihsued weapons, the men are
trained to walk miles upon miles
over the rocky mountainous ter
rain,” charged a disgusted soldier.
Morale of the men is exceedingly
low, according to an informant, be
i ause it is popularly believed at the
post that Gen. Almond was not con- I
sidered capable of handling a
white unit and was assigned to the
92nd division where he spews his
spleen of disappointment on the
(helpless Negro soldiers. Further
evidence of the contempt the com
mander^holds for his charges was
found in the allegation that he
sends is post Gestapo to uncover
Suspected hidden bullets used in
live ammuhition practice because
he fears an uprising of protest. Re
ports are current in Tucson that
several officers, one of whom was
a colonel have been severely beat
en or killed by th non-commissioh
d victims of their race hate and
venom. These sinister raids usual
ly occurring In the middle of the
night have revealed that some of
te soldiers are concealing arms to
protect themselves from further
indignities and in many instances |
to save their lives.
Another extremely sore spot with
the men i^ the restriction in rank
of colored officers. It was pointed !
out that when the organization
was formed in World War No. 1
the articles of war stated that "All
officers above the ranks of 1st lieu
tenant will be white.” There has
been but slight deviation from that
order, It is charged.
“All of the white officers, who
joined the division about 19 days
earlier than the Negroes after i he
division was reactivated in Octob
er, 1942, have been made 1st lieu
tenants and captains,” informed a ,
| camp soldier. “In the 365th in
Ifantry regiment particularly three
Negroes have made the 1st lieuten
ant grade. When we arrived here
the general started a development
school for backward officers. In
a class of 50 officers whom it was
felt needed some “policing up on"
all were Negroes.
“This does net represent a sit
uation of inability, as it affects one
group," continued the servicemen,
“it is out and out discrimination.
Those 50 men can never expect to
get beyond their present grade.1’
It was pointed out that the edu
cational background of the Negro
officers was generally higher than
that of white officers, yet the Ne
groes have been persistently passed
over in promotions.
Post officials apparently don’t
think that Negro soldiers need reg
ulation field rations to maintain
their maximum health, it was
charged, and as a result the food
served in mess is a constant sourc"
of nausea to the men. Negro of
ficers, it was stated, are so brtrv
oeaten and coerced that they dare
not object to any of the varied dis
criminations and irregularities for
fear of being “broken.”
Particularly bitter are the men
over the statements accredited to
Atty. Truman K. Gibson and Gen.
Benjamin O. Davis that conditions
are “in excellent shape" training,
“good”, morale “high” and the ov
erall picture “gratifying." Enlist
ed men who said the two high offic
ials were at Font Huachuca recent
ly to investigate the post must
have known that the reservation
is a “keg of dynamite" if they had
their eyes open.
Dynamite
.(by H. GEORGE DAVENPORT).
I Chicago, 111 (For
Press Photo Ser
vice)—Now that
schools are be
ing opened all
over the country
the youngsters of
teen ages should
be looking for
ward to thedr fu
t u r e. Learn a
trade, even tho’
you intend taking
HWWMWli II up a piUK-SMUll,
In conversation with Mrs. Staats
who teaches art at a state school,
she claims that she has difficulty
in making the pupils underslan i
that they should learn something
that will be financially beneficial
for them after leaving school. Mrs.
Staats teaches at Bordertown, X.
She took a picture of me at work
in my studio so she could show
the students the advantages of
learning something profitable, and
o encourage them.
Some time back when most of us
/ere on relief or near about, 1 e
nember? A young man by the
name of Eddie Joseph of Chicago
was packing one of those highly
rized brief cases which told the
world that he was on relief or
something closely akin to relief (a
writer’s project), I kidded this
young man so much an told hint
that he had better go to a trade
school and learn something. Aftei
much persuasion he finally went ti
welding school and at present he
is making close to $400 per month.
Another youngster quite a while
back came into my studio and ask
ed me what I thought of his draw
ngs, I told him that he should p. ac
ice up on his lettering and ho
ould make a fair living and e
ough to pay for his art education
f he so desired. I had forgotten
11 about the incident, when one
ay this youngster (a man no>v)
came into my place and ‘asked, “Do
you remember me?” I am the bn.v
you advised to take up lettering I
and I did. I had noticed his shopJ
in Chicago, but nev>.r dreamed that
I had anything to do with his suc
cess in life until he so informed mo.
After this war no on knows what
is.going to happen, so the safest
way is to learn a trade of some
kind; Shoe repairing, auto repair
ing, electrical refrigeration and mo
tor rebuilding, carpentry, plaster
ing, bricklaying ,etc., for the ladies
hairdressing, dressmaking, cooking
both pastry and otherwise, and
like trades depending upon the lo
calities and use to which you can
put such traes wherever you in
tend to live after leaving school.
When this other depression conies
and it is coming, the ones who will
be better ?ble to offest the diffic
ulties of sue times, are the oncs
who are prepared by knowing
something the other fellow doesn'*
know.
L ncoln once said, “I will stadj
and prepare, some day my time
will come”. Lincoln not oniy be
came President of these United
States, but his name has gone i
history as one of the greatest m “;
who ever lived. Of course yoi
may never be president of !hi
country, but you can be president
