Robert Young Finds Driver
Of Cab in N. Y. Is Namesake
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
Washington, Mar. 13 HI.RI The man and his pretty wife, Betty,
were standing there in the rain waiting for a cab in front of the
Cort theater in New York.
One finally came along and they hopped in and said: "Penn
itation."
On the way man and wife
gave with small chat about "As
You Like It."
"Plenty of time no hurry,"
the man told the driver.
In a New York cab, you not
only get a ride but right there
by the meter you have the pic
ture, the number, and the name
of the cab driver.
Robert Young and pretty Bet
ty Jerked forward a little. Both
the actor-radio star and his wife
noticed it at the same time. The
name of the hackman was Rob
ert Young.
Bob, the actor, told me when
I talked with him here that no
body .would believe it.
"It would sound too much like
publicity gag," he said.
So he brought along the cvi
dence. An autograph from the
other Robert Young, plus a note
in which the cabbie promised to
write and exchange photographs.
"We almost missed our train
to Washington," the actor mem
ber of the team said. "This fel
low wanted to drop by the Stork
club for pictures. I had to turn
It down because T wasn't shaved.
I think I was more thrilled than
he was."
- Robert Young, the star, is that
way.
In fact, he Is right down to
earth. A normal worry wart,
to boot.
.'When I talked to him he was
fussing about the problems of a
man who sometimes has to
transcribe a show ahead of time,
like Bob does for NBC in the
program called "Father Knows
Best."
,;The show is plattered at least
a month ahead of time while the
tar is on the road trying to tell
young drivers to lake it easy,
nnd not act like their dads, in
connection with the highway
afety committee.
, One of the shows has Young
the father with a cold.
.."Actually," he said, "I didn't
have one. But they put my
voice through a filler and marie
me sound like I had one. It
goes on and on in the script.
Me with a nasal. The copy was
written against time so I could
get away. We cut the record
and said a prayer and away 1
went."
What Is worrying Bob Young
this minute is that the program
will be on the air before he gets
back to appear in person. That
ounds rather trivial to us folks
who know nothing about doing
things In advance and a hurry.
"Look what has happened to
other stars," he complained.
"One of them transcribed a pro
gram a year or so back in which
lie had a guest star. The day
before the platter was to be
played, the guest died. The star
had to go on ahead of the trans
cription and apologize."
Well, that sort of thing could
happen to Bob Young.
As I left him he was stuffing
pills down his neck like crazy
and sneezing'
U. S. Foreign Policy Tangles
With Farm Support Programs
By VINCENT J. BURKE
Washington, Mar. 13 U.R) The government's foreign policy
and its farm support programs are starting to work at cross
purposes.
The conflict threatens to get worse. The Truman adminis
tration doesn't yet know what, if anything, can be done about it.
It's part of Uncle Sam's multi
billion dollar foreign trade neaa
ache.
The state department has
recommended that the White
House create a special inter
agency committee to reconcile
foreign and domestic economc
policy, including farm supports.
On the farm front the dilem
ma involves such matters a!
farm surpluses, the price of pota
toes and butter, the taxes you
pay for foreign aid programs,
farm prosperity, and a lot of
farm belt votes.
One agriculture official, who
declined to be quoted by name,
put it this way:
"How are we going to recon
cile a farm support program
which will hold U. S. farm prices
above world market prices with
a foreign policy aimed at per
mitting other countries to sell
commodities in this country to
earn dollars?"
Uncle Sam does not want to
keep on indefinitely "giving
away" each year billions of dol
lars worth of industrial equip
ment, manufactures, wheat, cot
ton and tobacco to foreign coun
tries under foreign aid programs.
Nor does he want this coun
try's big foreign export market
to collapse. That could touch off
a depression.
But the only way foreign
countries can earn more dollars
with which to buy U. S. goods is
to sell more of their own goods
in the United States.
To some persons it doesn't
make sense for Uncle Sam to al
low foreign farm products to
come into the United States when
the agriculture department is
buying up American-produced
surpluses of these same products
to support prices.
On the other hand, if the
United Stales bars foreign farm
products from its markets, it
strikes a blow at those countries'
chances of earning dollars of
their own to buy this country's
exportable surpluses of wheat,
cotton, tobacco and non-farm
products.
Oregon Mass Flight
Cited for Safety Proof
Portland, March 13, (U.R) J
R. Roberts, Redmond, member of
the Oregon Aeronautics board,
.declared here today that the
mass flight of Oregon planes to
Havana, Cuba, and back pro
vided proof that sky lanes are
even safer than highways.
A total of 175 planes took part
in the trans-continent flight and
the hop from Florida to Cuba.
Passengers and pilots numbered
206. There was only one minor
accident.
In Cuba, Robert Butler, Unit
ed States ambassador to Cuba,
was host to the Oregon air tour
ists. One of the stops on the
over-water flight to Cuba was
palm fringed Key West, where
80 of the Oregon planes land-
ded .
Roberts said the air tourists
took every opportunity on their
long trip to "plug" Oregon and
its attractions, including the Rose
festival the Pendleton Round
up and the Bend Mirror Pond
Pageant.

TOUPEE TROUBLE
Actor Solves Worry by
Getting It Off of Mind
BY BOB THOMAS
Hollywood, March 13 (IF) For sale: Three or four toupees, used
but in good condition.
The seller is Dean Jaggcr, who has carved a whole new career
for himself by tossing away his hairpiece.
"It s wonderful not to wear the darned thing anymore," said
the actor. It was a lot of trou
ble to glue on and my head got
hot underneath it.
"There was always the worry
about whether It was on straight.
I was always asking my wife
does it look all right?'
Jaggcr's emancpalion from the
loupee (or rug, as it Is called
in Hollywood) came through his
role in "12 o'clock High." He
played the "retread" desk offi
cer in the air force. One of
the studio stipulations that he
had to do the part without his
scalp doily.
His performance brought a
new kind of glamor to the bald
head. He won himself an acade
my nomination and is the lead
ing contender to snag the Oscar.
He is currently combing film
offers out of his h . . . . oops, I
guess I used the wrong expres
sion there.
'I have never been vain nbout
wearing the toupee, he told
me. "But it has been necessary
in my profession. Unfortunately,
some people think you arc an old
fogey if you don't have a full
head of hair."
The towering ex-basketballer
now looks much younger thnn
his 46 years. "But I was never
Ihe romantic type," he claimed.
Lvcn when I was 20 nnd try
ng to play a 23-year-old in
stock, I was laughed at. People
thought I was much older."
Although he abandoned his
toupee, Jaggcr said he might re
turn to them if future screen
roles required It. But would the
public accept him with hnir now
that he has made such a hairless
lilt?
"I hope so. I hope the public
will realize that the toupee is
just a part of an actor's vcos-
tumc.
Jagger said the most amusing
comment he heard about the
"12 O'clock High" role came
second-hand from a lady who
professes to know him very
well.
"Didn't they do a great make
up job?" she said to a friend.
"Of course Dean has a beauti
ful head of hair."
"Obviously she couldn't have
known me too well," commented
the actor, smiling and rubbing
his beautiful head of skin.
Knowland Blasts
Russian 'Blackmail'
Washington, March 13, (U.R1-
Sen. William F. Knowland,
(R., Cal.,) says the United States
must not be "blackmailed" by
Russia into letting the Chinese
communists be scaled at the
United Nations.
He called on the stale depart
ment to show "vigorous leader
ship" to prevent the unseating
of the Chinese Nationalist UN
delegates.
'If we yield to Soviet black
mail now," he said in a senate
speech, "it will rise to plague
us again."
