Miss Gahagan Glamour Girl For Democrat's Convention By FHEDERICKK C. OTHMAN U. P. Hollywood Correspondent CONVENTION HEADQUART ERS, CHICAGO (U.Pj Helen Ga hagan of Hollywood, the demo crats' rival in the glamour depart ment to Clare Booth Luce, arrived here in a movie actress dress of black with red flowers on it and announced that she was no such thing. She said she couldn't make smart cracks fast enough to com pete. "I have great respect for !rs. Luce," she said, "but I am not a wit. I can't say things smarter than other people and I think it is perfectly ridiculous for two women to stand up in times like these and spar." "Miss Gahagan." interrupted a photographer, "win ymi pleasai Uke off your hat? It la too big." "Certainly," said MUa G, "I don't like big hats myself." She sat down on a table in din hotel, while the cameramen angled hotel, while the ca merman angled vainly for cheesecake shots be cause she kept her skirts well be low her knees. She told the inquir ing reporters that she was tha democratic nomine for lonfin from the 14th district In Los An geles, a democratic national com mitteewoman and state vice-chair man to boot. "I must say t kind of eased Into Eugene Register-Guard, Friday, July 21, 1944, politics quit by accident in 1932 whan Melvin Douglas (her hus band) and I learned of the mlgre tion ot children back and forth across the country in box cars," she said. "That was a ghastly sit uation and then came the Okies to California, having babies under bridges and carrying infants suf fering from pneumonia, and I felt I had to do something. One thing led to another and pretty soon I was being elected national com mitteewoman. When that happen ed I had to ask my nephew, what Is a national committeewnman?" Miss Gahagan still hadn't taken oft that hat, the photographers were smashing flash bulbs on the carpets, the movie people were dragging in cables and turning on arcs and a democratic lady press agent said she didn't think there'd be any news out of this press con ference because nobody could hear a word. "That's all right," said Miss Gahagan, "I can shout. Loud." She'd been squirming on tha Page 7 table for 15 minutes now and her skirts were creeping up and tha photographers still were' explod ing flashes. "The legs wont show, will they?" she asked. "Oh no, ma'am," said a camera man. "Absolutely not. Absolutely." With these details settled (all but the hat). Miss Gahagan said she would speak for 15 minutes Thursday night befor tha conven- tion on the subject: Why the Peo ple Will Elect a Democratic Pres ident Again. rnn' "Lender told P"rL Bleed the toBW"11 ', d.ath when the unt n.'... captured IK!"
