Shapero Calls for Renewed
Efforts in War Bond Drives
Editor, The Jewish News:
On behalf of the retail division
of the Wayne County War Fi-
nance Committee, I want to pre-
sent my compliments to you on
the splendid work you did in the
5th War Loan drive. The over-
all job turned out to be a bit
harder than was expected, but I
am confident that the figures on
August 1 will show Wayne Coun-
ty and Michigan on top of the
heap as usual. The results of the
last few days of the campaign
were magnificent, and they show
what we are capable of, when all
the cards are down.
The retail promotional efforts
in the 5th campaign exceeded
anything we have attempted
heretofore. The Retailers spon-
sored three double spreads and
six full pages in the News, Times
and Free Press; furnished mate-
rial to out-state, neighborhood,
and foreign language papers; fur-
nished window material and
printed matter - throughout the
county; created • "Bond Square"
on Washington Boulevard and
maintained it._ throughout the
campaign; decorated the streets
in twenty-five shopping districts,
and shared in many other activi-
ties too numerous to mention.
But . . . we've got to do better
in the 6th War Loan. Plans are
already in the making. No rest
for us "till it's over, over there"!
We trust that you will accept
our fervent thanks for your sup-
port, and that you will stand by
to help us again.
Sincerely,
NATE S. SHAPERO, Chairman
Wayne County Retailers
War Finance Committee.

Henry Ginsberg took over the
reins of general manager in
charge of all production at Para-
mount. He is the same producer
who has been very active on all
Bond drives—in fact, he is the
originator of the 10 per cent pay-
roll deduction plan in use at all
the studios.

Since the time he played op-
posite Pola Negri in 1928 until
the winning of his Oscar, Paul
Lukas says he has been "found"
and lost by Hollywood exactly
seven times. So it isn't likely that
his new fame accruing from the
statuette will expand his head.
"It's like the title of my last pic-
ture—'Uncertain Glory.' "

So fearful are the Nazis of the
Allied radio programs that they
punished a whole French town as
an example. For "paying atten-
tion to foreign broadcasts," the
Nazis seized all radio sets in
Capestang and deported to Ger-
many all men between 18 and 40.
So reports OWI by way of "La
Suisse," Swiss newspaper.
