...News, reported the news that one Harry M. Kernan, housepainter of East Orange, N. J., had won $53,250 on his $2.50 lottery ticket on Signifier, who finished second in the Manchester race (see p. 42 ). Both newspapers carried the lottery story in complete detail, with no apparent concern over what the Post Office might do about...

Its main concern is the welfare of the cinema industry. Dissenters regard it as a company union since producers used it two years ago as a weapon to defeat Equity's attempt to organize cinemactors.
