Skelton As Man of Thousand quick change disguise artist, is right back where he started. a "Movie Within a Movie," for M.G:M.'s "Merton of the Movies," 5 To most people, perhaps, the term '"one-arm driving!" means romantic distraction while driv- ing. But there's. another form of one-arm driving that is also dangerous. That's the too com- mon practice of driving with the right hand alone on the wheel, while the left arm rests idly on thé ledge of the open window and the left hand dangles uselessly or perhaps clutches the top of the window. There's no romance here--just false confidence in the right hand--or just plain lazi- Sn) ness.

The uproarious silent movie se- quence gives the comedy star an opportunity to run the gamut of mugging and slapstick antics, with such gags of the period as the door that won't open, the mes- senger who arrives tod soon, the gun that misfires, etc. Appear- ing with Skelton in the new laugh riot are Virginia O'Brien, Gloria Grahame, Leon Ames and Alan Mowbray. When "State of the Union" is shown in' Canada, the billing will read, "Produced by Frank Capra, OBE." That stands for "Order of the British EmpireX and in Canada it means a great deal, therefore playing a big part in the publicizing of that picture. They can't publicize it too much to suit us; it's such a swelegant hunk of film. It's also mice to know that President Truman (as he did last week) can sit back and roar with laughter at the same things a lot of Americans are guffawing about in that moyie--namely, some of the cracks about himself and his party.
