HOLLYWOOD always can be de- pended on to turn out unique ideas, even when it comes to getting funds for relief. Poster which forms the background for picture (left) . is one of them. It was put up in Para mount Studios for the Dutch-Chinese Russian Navy Relief. Made in the form of a big jig-saw puzzle, it was torQ apart by groups of studio em plpyes instead of being put together. For each $1,250' contributed, a group was allowed to take off part of the puzzle, until the trio was completely dismembered. All studio folk contrib uted heavily to the idea, and it didn't take long before Hitler, Hirohito and Mussolini were in bits. Comparatively simple to carry out, it's an idea that might be used to advantage in many organizations to stimulate the sale of bonds and si!lmps as well as giving relief- to our , allies. It's one way in which small sums from members of large groups can be made to grow into a substantial amount. It serves also as a grim reminder that this is a war for the survival of the fittest, a war of all the people whether they travel the high road or the low road in this world conflict for freedom!
