Apr. 28 U.R Hollywood has been whooping up the movie stars long enough. Vincent Price said today. The time has come to let the movie stars publicize Hollywood for a while. He allows as how there's nothing wrong with the town's reputation that a few speeches here and there couldn't help. He thinks it'd be a fine idea if all the big names turned Dress agent. Like Charles Lauehtnn " Price pointed out. "He tours the country reading the Bible. You'd be amazed at the amount of good that does. Robert Young's an other one. He lectures on rjublic safety." Actor Price works pretty hard in that league himself. His sdo- cialty Is art and culture. He'll hit the "creamed-chicken-and- mashed-potatoes" circuit at the drop of an Invite. He can talk for hours on "the esthetic responsibility of the citizen and the actor." And when he gets through, the people have preuy wen lorgouen sen. tdwln Johnson's descriptions of Holly wood as a nasty den of deDravitv and sin. Will Talk to Anybody Price will talk to anvbodv who'll listen. He's sounded off to women's clubs. Girl scouts, book societies, Red Cross rallies, bond drives, art gatherings, school assemblies and even a lo cal sorority mothers' group, sometimes there are 3.000 peo- ple In his audience. Sometimes only 80. He gives 'em all the full treatment. It Isn't easy. He can't look a patty shell stuffed with creamed chicken in the face any more, but he's changed a lot of Ideas. "Now and then you run Into' a pretty belligerent gang," Price said, "so you level with them. You admit Hollywood has its faults. Then you bear down on it's good points. And, believe it or not, it works." He and Laughton and Youne don't make the kind of headlines Ingrid and Rita do. But they're in mere cnipping away at Hoi lywood's rip-roaring reputation and if their wind holds out, they'll make it yet. "But we need some help," Price said. "If every star in the industry gave up just one week to go around and talk to clubs, it'd be a tremendous thing." He does a lot of it himself by doubling-up on his personal ap oearance tours. When he hit the road with "The Baron of Arizo na, he did his regular stints for publicity. Then he ducked out to talk to women's clubs about modern art. "We can't be as bad as Sen. Johnson says we are." Price grinned. "But the only way to convince people is to let 'em look at us and listen to us. "The fact that we even bother to come to explain it to 'em bowls most people over. Your battle's half won before you even clear your throat. "It's just too bad that more stars won't bother." Employment Gains Continue To Be Strong in Oregon Salem. Ore.. ADr. 28 IU.R) Employment gains in industries, trade and service groups of Ore gon continued strong and steady well into the third month, the state employment compensation commission reported today. At least 45,000 ot the unem ployed were reported back on the job and further upturns were predicted in all parti of the state. Close To Record Nearly 400,000 non-farm work ers were busy in mid-March, just five weeks after the end of the severe cold spell. And prelim inary figures this month indicate that total will come close to the April record of 413,500 estab lished just two years ago. If the advance maintains the same pace for the next three months, the commission said, employment by mid-summer may approach the all-time peak of 481,300 in Aug ust, 1948. Last year the com parative figures were 408,000 at this time and 443.400 at the top. Lumber and loezine opera tions led the employment pick-1 up by putting 10,000 back to work in the six weeks before March 15, with nearly as many more since that date. But con struction made the sharpest next gain over the past month, in creasing 3,800 to 20,300. The total was only 300 ahead of a year ago, however, and left near ly 9,000 to be made up before reaching the 1949 peak. Retail Merchants Report Trade and service groups also reported increases, with retail merchants accounting for most of the gain with 2,400 more at work in mid-March than a month before. Other activities barely held even with recent reports, and transportation, utilities, and fur niture and fixtures manufactur ing were several hundred below similar totals last year. The commission said unem ployment was shrinking consid erably all over Oregon, although increases in some areas were slight, if any. in the Oregon tity district. onlv 1.800 were seeking jobs April 1 as compared with 3,900 a month before and 3.000 a year ago. But Astoria, Toledo, La Grande, Eugene, Frcewater, Salem and Klamath Falls show ed little or no Improvement. Local offices in Roseburg, Le banon, Baker, Hood River and Coos Bay found the most room for cheer in their April reports. In the Portland metropolitan area, 3,400 went back to work. But seasonal changes were much less noticeable than In most other sections. Unemployed In Decline Portland reported 22,400 look ing for Jobs, a 8.7 per cent de cline from a year uo. other hrens had 36.365 micmployed, 12.8 per cent fewer than in 1949. The commission noted that 28.7 per cent of the Portland job seekers were women, compared with 24.8 per cent in other parts of the state, Unemployment declines also were reflected in the continuing drop in the number of claimants for compensation, although a complicating factor was the rapid increase in the number of those who had exhaused benefit rights for the year ending next June 30. Only 22.684 were ask ing for help in the third week 200 MILLION TREES, Murray, Ky. (U.R) As part of the Tennessee valley authority program, 200 million trees have been planted in the valley. To encourage planting of trees, the authority has contributed seed lings to landowners who ask for them. of April, compared with 65,731 at the early February peak and 28,493 a year ago. Exhaustions were past the 26,000 mark and growing at the rate of 1,000 to 1,200 a week. A year ago the total was about 14,000. COMMUTE TO PORTLAND or SEATTLE VIA UNITED! leave 6.-00 am At.
