Screenland (Nov 1950-Oct 1951)

ful bustle in the closet. I wouldn't make everyone dress up all the time, though. I approve of casual clothes. Farley can wear his blue jeans and I'll wear my slacks and we'll both take off our shoes as we always do when we want to relax. Just because I'd have diamond tiaras, they wouldn't weigh me down except when I simply had to ritz it up majestically. Hollywood would get a fast physical face lift. There aren't any trees here any more, unless you import each one at a frightening figure. I'm told Vine Street used to be a terrific tunnel of pepper trees from Sunset Boulevard down to Melrose. They touched above, literally. They were all chopped down when the street was widened so we could have better traffic jams. European and South American capitals, and Washington, D.C., have broad boulevards lined with noble trees. There are lovely parks. We'd become less commercial overnight, meet architectural qualifications, advertise with a beautiful facade instead of on billboards and in blatant neon as soon as we got the gracious boulevards. I'd be pretty miserable being a queen for a long run. I haven't had the training for it. A princess who inherits a crown is educated for elegance from birth. She has a natural grace from the beginning — I was twenty before I tripped across a room without practically stumbling from self-consciousness. A princess expects to be agreed with. I've always had to talk a blue streak to even get my ideas up for consideration. I've never had a maid, to say nothing of a secretary, chauffeur, ladies-in-waiting, and all that comprises a staff of glorified servants. It must be nice to merely wish for excellent service, and get it. When a queen travels, she has the banner flying atop her palace lowered to indicate she's not in residence at the moment. A banner flies from the radiator of her motor-car, and when she zooms out of her walled-in gardens they think nothing of holding up all traffic as her Rolls Royce ignores the stop-and-go signals. Oh boy — could I make time getting around Hollywood with the same deal as an ambulance or a fire department lad. The nearest I can get I've gotten — I've just bought a new convertible that's lipstick red. If I were queen, I wouldn't be content with my one mink I've earned. I'm all for having half-a-dozen marvelous fur coats. But I'd hock the crown jewels and funnel those funds into some useful channel. I'd keep on smiling at everyone I liked, regardless of our respective "positions" in life. Nobody would have to tiptoe. The most difficult self-discipline would be learning to be on the dot. I'm always late because I go off on half-a-dozen tangents when a couple should do for anyone. I couldn't live in grandeur, refuse to answer the phone when it might be a friend. If I were queen in Hollywood, I'd stir up things. But not my friends. I'd take them all along for the ride. I'd rather be a queen — in my own odd, Wintersy way — in their hearts.
