FINANCIERS OPPOSE
 AN EXTRA SESSION
Half . D0sen Congressman Also Op-
 pose the Suggestion.

New York, Nov. 4--F'inanciers of New York hold opposing views regarding the suggestion that President Roose- welt call an extra session of Congress at once to aprovide for currency re- form. Half dozen members of the House. men prominent in Congress, op- pose 1t.
 The nnanciers who oppose an extra session of Congress generally favor currency reform, but they hold thnt the regular session of Congress Is so near that the subject can be consider ed then.
 Leslie M. Shaw, president of tshe Car negie Trust Company, and former sec- retary of the treasury, is one of those who favors immediate action. He says that If Congress had acted last winter the crisis through which we are now passing would not have happened.
 Wise legislation" he said, cannot be passed to quickly"
 E. H. Hartman James Stillman and Henry Cleys are against the idea. Mir. Hartman said: '.No extra session can help existing conditions. What we need is rest and quiet and the oppor- tunity for things to become normal"
 James Stillman, president of t'he Ma t'onal City Bank, said
 we Snoulu nave more currency. f1- nanciers have known this for years. Sc far as present conditions are con- cerned, all that Is needed Is for the press to keep on reassuring the public that there is no occasion for appreh en- sion. Values are absolutely fixed, but of course we cannot have money with which to do business if people hoard it away. There is no danger. and the people should understand this" .
 Henry Clews said: No Eharm will be done by waiting for the regular session. The present difficulty will gradually pass away. We are already over the worst of 1t. There is no long, CT any stringency, any panic. As soon as Congress meets. 1t will be for the President then to present his views on the situation to them and start them on their work"
 Among tho CongrCssmen interviewed, and all of whom opposed the idea of calling a special session to consider the matter. were Charles N. Fowler chairman of the house committee on banking and currency; w. P. Hepburn chairman of the interstate and foreign commerce committee, John Dalzell, Jo- seph H. Gaines and w. c. ,Calderhead.

CONGRESSMAN FOWLER
 OPPOSES EXTRA SESSION.

New York, Nov. 4-It would be most unwise to call an extra session of Con- gress now. to consider currency legis- lation and the Federal control of cor porattons in the opinion of Charles M. Fowler, of New Jersey. Chairman of , :he Banking and Currency Commis- sion of the House of Representatives.
 What the country needs more than anything else" said MT. Fowler. Ifs rest. recuperation and revival of faith in American manhood. not unrest. ap- prehension and destruction of conf deDce and credit in American business.
 "fhe banks of the United States, of Swhich there are more than 12,000, with the very rarest exception, are man aged by honest and able men and con- sidered from the standpoint of assets they are sounder and stronger today than they have ever been at any time in the history of the country, although, owing to the want of wise andS prop CT currency system. they are tempora- rily short of sufficient currency to transact their daily business"

"sleN OF THE CROSS"
ENTERS SECOND WEEK

The second week of "The Sign of the
Cross" at the Auditorium. begins to-
night and it is quite possible that the
play, which has made remarkable I'M
preston, will run even third Every
performance has seen larger crowds IN
attendance, and at the Saturday matinee
it was necessary to open the mezzanine
floors. never used except in case OF emer-
gency.
The play shows the merits of the Ferris
players to the best advantage. and espe-
cially does it emphasize the magnificent
resources of the Auditorium stage in the
way of scenic possibilities. No other
stage on the coast equals this one In size,
and thus none other has the facilities for
superb scenic displays. Full advantage Is
taken of this fact in THE Sign of the
Cross" and the visions of ancient Rome
are enough in themselves to draw people
to the theater.
Dick Ferris has announced his first pink
tea of the season, with reception to
Florence Stone and the ladies of the COM
pany which viii. take place in the grand
foyer on the main floor during and after
the Wednesday matinee.

School Of Art and DESIGN

The twentieth annual exhibition OF
student work was held at the Los Ange-
les School of Art and Design, Westlake
park, Monday and Tuesday, and by re-
quest the work will again be on ex-
hibition next Monday and Tuesday af-
ternoons from to 4.
Eighteen excellent oil studies were
shown. being portraits. figures land
scapes and marine pieces. In portraiture
those calling for most praise as being in
deed excellent were by Helen Kohlmeir
and Earl Freeman, whilst the land
scapes by Florence Parker and Langdon
Smith called for special praise.
In illustration some exceedingly clever
work was that of Langdon Smith, Earl
Freeman and Harry Craft.
In the water color section, in which
about a score of studies were shown,
Edner Models portraits and other work
were exceedingly clever. while the 9TH
er work by Alover Nockerblum and
Madge Ball are most promising, show
ing keen observation and careful train
ing.
The elementary. in black and whits,
shows vigorous handling, with full
grasp of the purpose and aim of their
art educators.
Throughout the exhibit there was an
entire absence of striving for effect; only
the truth has here any place.
John H. Rich, a recent acquisition to
the faculty, who came from Boston af-
ter returning from two years of study
and work in Paris, had on exhibition
some fine work in figures and landscape,
the latter especially earning the praise
of the artists present.
Mr.. Rich's work will again be shown
on Monday and Tuesday afternoons.

SAY DOG AIDS MASTER IN
RAIDS ON CHICKEN YARDS
Police Locking for Man Who Is Said
to Have Adopted Modern Methods
in Carrying Away
Loot

Training dumb brute to steal and US
ing a bicycle to carry away the fruits
of the animals labor is, an enterprise
somewhat out of the ordinary adopted
by thief, but it is said to have proved
highly successful in the case of man
who has been working recently around
the Westlake and hill districts of Los
Angeles and many are the back yards
that have suffered as result of the
depredations.
The man is tall and slender; wears
dark suit and round top black slouch
hat. Mounted on bicycle he rides along
the country roads, followed by large
white dog.
A watchful eye is kept on barn yards
and when likely looking fowl is spotted
the dog is given a signal, dashes after
the chicken and usually gets it.
He brings 1t to his master, who places
It in a sack tied to one of the handle
bars and rides away.
The police have been notified of the
man and his dog and their reported
thefts, and detectives have been detailed
on the case.
