By HENRY WEGODSKY
LAST SUMMER Billy Rose began
reminiscing about show business
and show people In newspaper ads
for his New York nightclub, "The
Diamond Horseshoe." So well re-
ceived was the chatter that many
newspaper editors requested re-
print rights. Rose subsequently
started releasing a daily column
entitled "Pitching Horseshoes"
without charge to newspapers
throughout the country for a six
month period ending Jan. 1, 1947.
Before that trial period expired,
however, the column was contract-
ed for by a national syndicate at
a minimum retainer of $50,000 an-
nually. "Pitching Horseshoes" cur-
rently appears in 76 dailies. Ru-
mor has It that Rose will donate
a considerable share of the $50,000
to worthy Jewish charities.

CANADA'S FIRST Yiddish
nightclub will open in Montreal
sometime In February. Yiddish
stage star, Jennie Goldstein, will
headline the premiere.

MOSS HART'S new play "Chris-
topher Blake" was purchased this
week by M.G.M. at a reputed
$300.000.

ETIIEL MERMAN, currently
in Irving Berlin's "Annie Get
Your Gun", is Broadway's high-
est paid stage performer. She
receives a minimum guarantee of
$4,600 weekly. Her understudy,
who has as yet- not been called
upon to substitute for Miss Mer-
man, receives $500.

ARTHUR KOESTLER will ar-
rive In Hollywood in mid-February
to begin the screen play for his
current best seller, "Thieves In the
Night." • • •
A SURVEY CONDUCTED earli-
er this year by the National Con-
ference of Christians and Jews re-
vealed that well over half of the
sample interviewed was undecided
as to whether they would actively
participate in race riots and pog-
roms. Stirred by these findings,
the National Conference assumed
the task of promoting brotherhood
on a comprehensive scale.
In February, the Conference will
begin a powerful campaign aimed
at curbing prejudice and bigotry, in
general, and anti-Semitism, in par-
ticular. The full cooperation of
the clergy, radio, motion pictures,
newspapers, magazines, and the
Advertising Council has been en-
listed.
It Is my good fortune to have
access to the details of the com-
paign. I can recall no brother-
hood campaign more thoughtfully
conceived and so masterfully plan-
ned.

IN HIS DEC. 13 COLUMN, Mr.
Wegodsky indicated that the
Anti-Defamation League was con-
sidering the purchase of the
negative of the film "Able's Irish
Rose" for $550,000 to prevent its
distribution. Richard E. Gut-
stadt, national director of the
league, informs us that the
league has never had an inten-
tion to purchase the film and
that the statement in the column
was unauthorized. The Jewish
Chronicle Is glad to make this
correction.
