Through Hong Kong
MISS GLORIA STUART (OR MRS. ARTHUR SHEEKMAN, AS SHE PREFERS TO BE CALLED WHEN OFF THE SET), ONE OF HOLLYWOOD'S FEW STARS WHO COMBINE BEAUTY WITH INTELLIGENCE AND A UNIVERSITY DE- GREE, ARRIVED IN HONG KONG LATE LAST EVENING IN THE ATHOS II.
Most of yesterday, she told the "China Mail," she spent in arguing with her husband, one of Holly- wood's better scenario writers, try- ing to persuade him to spend 10 days here; but he wanted to see Saigon and Angkor and since they could not do both and still catch the s.s. President Garfield at Singa- pore, their stay in Hong Kong was one of a few hours; they sailed early this morning for French Indo- China.
did
The first thing Miss Stuart when she reached the Star Ferry, Kowloon, was to ask: "What's the latest news in China?"
Mr. Sheekman was already read- ing the front page of the Final
·Edition of the "China Mail." A member of the party promptly hand- ed her another copy of the same paper.

HOLLYWOOD'S POLITICS
"There are reports that, political-. ly speaking, film stars in Holly- wood are going slightly to the Left. Have you noticed that?" Miss Stuart was asked.
"Well, that depends on what you mean by 'Left.' In Japan, I under- stand, they think you are a Radical if you believe in democracy!" she quipped.
"Can we quote you as saying that, despite the Dies Committee, Shirley Temple is not a Communist?”
"You can-if you think that's funny!"
A FREE-LANCE
Some few years back, Miss Gloria Stuart got "a bit tired of pictures." She announced that she was going to come out to China to join the "North-China Daily News," as she knew one of the members of the editorial staff. She had previous experience of newspaper work, but gave up the idea eventually...
From Singapore, she and her

THREAT TO HOPE DIAMOND GIRL

SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD EVALYN MCLEAN, AN AMERI- CAN SOCIETY GIRL WHOSE MOTHER OWNS THE ILL-STAR- RED HOPE DIAMOND; HAS BEEN THREATENED WITH KID- NAPPING. -A SPECIAL GUARD OF DETECTIVES ARE ON DUTY NIGHT AND DAY TO PROTECT HER.
It is a tradition that misfortune comes to those who own or wear the diamond. Among them have been Marie Antoinette and Louis. .XVI., both of whom were behead- ed. The stone is believed to have been stolen from an image in a Hindu temple.
Mrs. Evalyn McLean bought it in 1912 for £52,000. She has always been contemptuous of its ill-omen, although her son was killed by a car in boyhood.
