The latest signature he coaxed upon a contract belongs to Francis X Shields, prominent on the nation's c ourts, and before that he signed 16-year-old Eugenia Falkenberg, who w ields a racket nicely, too, to build her for eventual starring roles. In neither ease, however, did Gold wyn get the bright Idea through be ing smitten by bis prospects' athletic prowes. Sam goes to some sport events, .In spectator's capacity, and h did meet "Jinx" Falkenberg at the tennis tournament, but she was Just a spectator, too, on that lucky day for her. As for Shields, who signed a Metro movie contract six months ago and never played a part, Goldwyn mot him at a party, and says he didn't even recognize the tennis name. That being so, you can play tennis If you like It, but don't count on It to put you in the movies.

"Jinx" (she has been called that ever since she could remember) has a life story that could be worked In to a screen play. Her father, Lincoln Falkenberg, an engineer, was sent to Spain on a project and there met Marquerlte Crooks, a Spanish-Eng lish socialite. They were married and Eugenia was born In Barcelona Janu ary 31, 1910. Eugenia thinks they might have nicknamed her "Jinx" because an Infant naturally would be a problem to an engineer whose work called blm Into far parts of the earth. She Lived Around She went along, at any rate, with the family, and has lived In Santiago, Chile; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Rio de ,1a nlero; in the Pyrenees, back In Eu rope.

RELIEF FINANCING (Contlnuea From Page One.) sues bear interest from Septerrfber 16. payable semi-annually. If all the old notes are exchange for the new the government win save $4,180,000 annually in Interest charges, but If the new bonds are taken in exchange, the government stands to pay out additional Inter est charges of $1,045,000 annually on the $418,000,000 Issue. Observers noted that the interest rates offered marked an at least temporarily levelling off in a steady decline which has been in progress for many months. The fact that the Interest figures for the December offering are the same as September's gave rise to conjecture as to whether the low point has not finally been reached, with an upward movement possibly In prospect.

MEDFORD BRANCH of the United States National Bank Of Portland Head Office: Portland, Oregon ONE OF THE NORTHWEST'S GREAT BANKS . The rising taxes on food shrink every family's income. (Actually, 53 separate taxes are now levied on a loaf of bread!) Who pays these food taxes? The farmer pays a share. Other taxes are payed by "processors," still others by transporters, and others in addition by retailers. But the farmer, the "processor," and the retailer can't exist unless they pass these taxes along. So finally, it is you the consumer who pays the bulk of food taxes. They are "wrapped up" in the retail prices you pay. Yet there is one relief. It is a waste- cutting method of getting food from farms to you the Safeway method. With food taxes added on to your monthly food bills, you ought to make the sav ings that your neighborhood bnjeieay grocer offers you. When you save this way, vou help the farmer, too. Farmers get a larger share ot your tood dollar when you buy at a Safeway grocery. r- -- YOUR neighborhood S.Ucw.iy grocer is not discussing here the tight and wrong of taxes on food. But with food taxes mounting so rapidly, your Safeway grocer's efficiency in distribut ing food is more than ever important to you. He can help keep your food bills down. He docs it not by skimping his workers and not by pinching the farmer. He and his workers cam more than other men doing similar work. The farmer gets a l.irgcr slurs of the food dollar spent at Safeway than he docs of food dollars spent elsewhere. Your Safeway guxer saves you this money by clumxMiKg u .is:e and middleman expenses. He could not do this alone.
