EDWARD G. ROBINSON’S LUCKY ESCAPE
Edward G. Robinson ( one of the last of the Hollywood contingent to get out of France when the war started, is congratulating himself on his luck. An influential friend in Paris got him a passage on the first boat sailing. It happened to be a German liner. Luckily for Robinson he did not sail on this boat, for, after starting it was ordered to turn back and put in at a German port. Robinson would have received a nice reception in Germany. Besides being a Jew, he played the lead in “Confessions of a Nazi Spy.”
