Prices Elevated
For Hired Hands
l(i Film World
By Virginia MacFherson
(United Prtms Hollywood CorrecpunJcnt)
Hollywood, Jan. 21 Mi You
think the cost of, living is high?
Then be glad you're not a hired
hand In the movies. Hollywood
merchants have- a .double, price
standard for those guys and gals.
Let word get around you're con
nected with some studio and zow
ie the tariff goes up. And the
big-money stars aren't the only
ones who get nicked.
The little guys get it, too.
It works something like this:
Joe Schultz, a mechanic at Al's
garage, goes shopping for an end
table. He finds the thing the mis
sus has been yelling for to add
a little class to the family parlor.
For Joe, the price is $25.
Price Goes Up
But if Harry Schultz an assis
tant director, wants the same
table and the salesman knows
what his job is there's a quick
double-play with price tags and
Harry's out $125.
Our cleaner works the same
way. He'll take the spots out of
our new ballerina suit for $2.75.
That includes hand-finishing all
the way.
"But for my movie customers,"
he shrugs, "well . . . it'd be any
where from $10 to S30. You gotta
charge what the traffic will bear."
Doctors and dentists have it
even better. Dana Andrews' first
baby cost him about $200. That
was before he got to be a movie
heart-throb. His fourth offspring,
he figures. Is gonna set him back
a cool $3,000. '
Most of the big names write it
off to the expense of being a star.
But Actor Dane Clark thinks it's
a dirty shame. Especially for the
little guvs.
Pay Not All High
"It's not fair for stars and di
rectors and producers to have to
pay 20 times what an article is
worth," he growled. "But at least
with a couple hundred thousand
a year they can make out.
"But the trouble is, people on
the outside think everyone con
nected with the movies Is sprink
led with gold dust. If you work
Inside these sacred halls, presto
you're loaded with dough."
And it might surprise the fur
niture dealers and the cleaners
and the doctors, Clark says, to
know that many a studio 1ob paws
no more than $35 or $40 or $50
. a week.
"Even the guys who make $175
a week aren't loaded," he pointed
out. "Because movie work Isn't
steady. Usually you only Ret those
paychecks about 25 or 30 weeks
out of the 52. About 80 per cent
of the movie workers earn less
than $0,000 a year."
87 Mines Found ,
In Pacific Lanes '
Seattle, Jan. 21 (IB Eighty
seven mines were reported in the
sea lanes of the North Pacific
coast during 1947 and 57 are still
at large menacing ships in Ore
gon, Washington, British Col
umbia and Alaska waters, the
13th coast guard district reported
here Tuesday.
Thirty of the mines were locat
ed and destroyed by coast guard
and navy personnel. But the re
mainder are believed to be still
afloat somewhere In the Pacific
coast waters, coast guard offi
cials said.
According to the coast guard,
the number of mines reported has
taken a sharp drop this month
with only three being sighted.
Two of these were destroyed,
they said.
menace Not Over
Howevei-i the officials warned
that this does not mean that the
mine menace is over In Pacific
coast waters. More than 35.000
mines were planted by the Jap
anese navy during the war, and
many of them have never been
found.
Coast guard officials said they
may be expected to break loose
from their rusted moorings in
storms and drift with the cur
rents to the west coast of the
American continent for many
years to come.

GOP To Press
For Tax Slash
Washington, Jan. 21 on Re
publican members of the house
ways and means committee de
cided today to press for house ap
proval of the complete $5,600,
000,000 Knutson tax reduction
bill.
A few committee members had
been disposed to trim the tax cuts
on the theory that this would
make It easier to pass the bill
over a veto.
Committee chairman Harold
Knutson, R., Minn., told report
ers, however that the "one or
two doubters had agreed to go
along with other GOP members
of the committee and support
the whole bill.
The republican ways and means
members the men who draft tax
bills will lay their case before
the house GOP steering commit
tee this afternoon. Efforts may
be made in that meeting to reduce
the amount of the tax cut. If
the house passes the Knutson
Din in its present form, the sen
ate probably will cut it.
