TUESDAY, JUNE 16,1912 *Paul Harrison's Column HOLLYWOOD, June 16 One* of the most careful and sincere workers in Movietown is a German who teaches screen Nazis how ty speak and conduct themselves, an J coaches film Gestapo members in their sinister ways. He is a tech nical and research adviser whose name, I suspect, is not Hans Herb st. The studios and federal authori ties know all about him, anyway. Wherever war pictures are in preparation, Herbst offers aid not only in actual production, but in script preparation- In Germany he was a writer of distinction, and a part-time research authority and scenarist for German moi.ves. He wouldn't write Nazi propaganda, so he owes his life and his escape from Germany to a rich and influ- KVASH TUBBS Rv FRED HARMAN Wk 57HE SUPPEN EXPLOSION ANO S' U COLLAPSE: OF THE BRIDGE IF 1 Zv AXfiX.

WORDS FROM THE WIND It was only after working as a laborer in a few eastern factories that he managed to get to Holly wood, where he had friends. He learned English pronunciation by ging to movies, and acquired an English vocabulary through a word by-word translation of “Gone With the Wind.” On current war films, he at tempts—so far as directors will al low—to get absolute realism in ever;.’ detail. He even pleads for the avoidance of phony touches of ferocity and melodrama- “The truth is terrible enough,” said Herbst. “Pictures should be very serious and very honest, because only then can they prove that the dangers of Hitlerism are real ” BEATS THE RUN-AROUND Another earnest individual now working for Hollywood—though not in it—is Pare Lorentz, producer director of an ambulatory epic of war workers called “Name. Age and Occupation.” This is the first com mercial film made by the former film critic who became head of the United States Film Service and turned out a lot of fine docu mentaries, including "The River”, "The Plow That Broke the Plains” and "The Fight for Life”. In 1940, after the government film service was dissolved, Lorentz got the old run-around from al most every studio when he asked for industry aid in continuing pro duction of important documentary movies Finally, last year, RKO gave him the green light. “Name, Age and Occupation” was to have been the story of an average American workman between the first and second World Wars. Pearl Harbor changed his plans. Lorentz rewrote his story and went to Washington to realign his loca tion schedule- Result is the pic ture skips around more, geographi cally, than any feature ever filmed. He went first to factories in De troit. Toledo and Akron, then to the TVA project in Tennessee, and on to North Carolina. Lorentz will complete his picture with a few scenes made at the studio. The in terior of a workingman's home Ls the only special set built for the entire production. Only Hollywood players in the cast are Frances Dee and Dudley Digges, and the latter belongs mostly to Broadway. So does Ro bert Ryan, the leading man, who never had faced a camera- AMERICAN SHOOT DOWN NINE JAP PLANES CHUNGKING, June 12 (UP) Pilots of the American Volunteer Air Force early today shot, down nine Japanese planes of a squad ron of 18 which attempted to raid Kweilin, capital of Kwangsi pro vince- The Flying Tigers” return ed to their base without loss after the battle over Kweilin.
