EXTRA SESSION WILL
ORGANIZE SPEEDILY

Washington, March 29-President
Wilson was said today to be hopeful
that the house of representatives
will rush its organization plans so
there will be no delay in atfording
him opportunity to make his address
in the war situation to a joint ses-
sion with the senate. Administration
leaders are anxious that if a pro-
longed fight is in prospect some sort
of an arrangement be made for tenn
porary organization to permit the
presidents appearance Tuesday or
Wednesday.
The resolution for congressional
action TO comply with the presidents
recommendation probably will be
considered first in the house, leav-
ing the senate TO take it up later,
'Ehe house foreign affairs committee
now is drafting various forms of a
resolution to meet the executive re-
Communications.
Another reason for original house
action is the probability that the re-
solution will carry an emergency ap-
preparation. Appropriation measure
originate there.
The peculiar situation in the sem
ate foreign relations committee with
Chairman Stone opposed to action
which would lead to war and the
opposition of Senator Hitchcock, the
next ranking democratic member to
steps further than an amed neutrali-
ty manifesto was another factor in
the tentative plan to have the reso-
luton originate in the house.
The president has received recon-
mendations from several cabinet
members on points to be included in
his address and is now preparing it
in a preliminary way.
The final cabinet meeting before
the assembling Of congress will be
held tomorrow and members will be
ready to report fully on preliminary
preparedness measuges.

those who have come to look forward to those days as special events for the lliddies. There will be but three more dances. these being given as usual on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday even ings.
 All those owning bathing suits are requested to claim them on or before next Saturday. as the management will no longer be responsible for them after that date.
 For the last picture show of the pres ent season, which will be given tonight
 the offering will be Mollie King in
 Blind Mans Luck" a Pathe play in
 five parts.
 Blind Mans Luck" is constructed on the plan typical of other Pathe fea- lures produced by the Astra company. It launches straight into the plot and ! immediately begins to weave an at mosphere of mystery about one of the leading characters-in this case, the heroine. It then proceeds touching the 1 high spots and there is more than or ] dinary stress of action. Action, indeed 1 is the main element in practically all ! of the Astra features and Blind Man $ 1 Luck" is no exception. The plot is ] benefited largely by this treatment 1 The touch of mystery at the very be- ginning by keeping Eileen's relation ship to Crow in the dark arouses much
 suspense
 George Fitzmaurice has given the picture a production in accord with his
 usual fine work Mollie King is q
 charming heroine. Earle Fox is a pleasing juvenile with a good sense of comedy, while William Riley Hatch and
 zeffie Tilbury are pleasing in the prominent character parts of MT. and Mrs. Guerton.
 The story in brief is as follows: i Eileen Caverly (Mollie King) escaping ! from a smuggler boards a train to the ! north. Roby Guerton (Earle FoX), dis i inherited son of a millionaire has ter i minated a carOuse by marrying a cer- ! tain young woman and they also board | the train. In wreck the newly made ! wife is killed and Eileen, to save her ] self from the police, takes her place 1 Boby was so drunk the night before ! that he fails to penetrate the deception i and only congratulates himself on his i nasty selection of a beautiful wife
 Four years later they are living in hap 1 pineSS and in a decidedly interesting
 series of scenes their little boy proves : the means of reconciling Boby with his father. Crow the smuggler, turns uI
 again and attempts to blackmail Eileer 1 but is killed by Boby, who believes hin
 burglar. It turns out that Crow wa: ! Eileen's guardian, against whose at

KYNE'S STRONG STORY
 SHOWN ON THE FILM

Peter B. Kyne, famous for his stories in the Saturday Evening Post and his wonderful descriptive touch of the things western is responsible for the Hip film story today and tomorrow. It is called, Light In Darkness and brings back to those who remember The Law of the North" pretty little Shirley Mason, a sister of the dimi- nutive Viola Dana, and one of the com ing screen favorites. The Peter B. Kyne story deals with a man and a woman sent to prison who meet on the way. The man is victim of circumstances and at the expiration of their respec- tive terms they go to the west to live, are eventually married and become good citizens
 From out of the past comes a man who tries to blackmail the man who was once a convict and around this at tempt hangs one of the finest stories of the year in picture circles. Shirley Mason, gifted and beautiful sister of Viola Dana is the star of the picture and is seen in a part that fits her like a glove.
 Incidental to the story which has much charm in the setting is a scenic environment that is charming. The great west at the time of the telling of the story is shown with it's wealth of local color and the effect is mar velous.
 The Exhibitors Trade Review speak ing of the picture in a recent trade showing says, Light in Darkness is q clean, vigorous melodrama. free from any mawkish sentiment. The photo graph is fauitless. The direction, eX- cellent, and the cast so good that the equal is not often seen in a melodrama Shirley Mason is delightful in the part of the girl who does her bit and after wards goes to the west to live right Splendid comedy bits are injected into the sub-titles as.G the offering is just bit removed from the so-calleC | good features. It is said to be a bet ter than good feature"
 The usual Pathe News reel augments the regular offering.

CHILDREN PROBLEM
 SOLUTION, COLUMBIA

The Hand that RocRs The Cradle" the much discussed photo-play dealing with birth control will be shown for the first time in Phoenix at the Colum bia theater this afternoon. The feature prepared under the direction of Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley was shown privately a few nights ago before a distinguished audience of represent ative New York men and women The subject matter has been chosen because of it's dramatic interest Although un- occasionally based upon authentic cases which have been reported in the newspapers of this country from Maine to California. the picture does not claim to be a dramatization of any parti- cular heroine of real life.
 The new picture is in six reels, all of great dramatic interest and splen- didly acted. Miss Weber appears as Mrs. BroOme, the wife of an eminent physician, who, through her husbands S calling becomes possessed of sufficient knowledge to impart it to certain wom- en who are in need of her advice. The story cleverly links together two con- trasting families, one the home of a wealthy couple with society loving wife and the other, the family of a dpOiihS ilIdii III edcn case the problem of the children comes to the front In the treatment of this story there is not one line, scene or situation which could possibly offend even the most fastidi- ous. Yet the intrest is maintained until the very end.
 The story shows the doctors wife in the guise of a ministering angel to women In distress, her persecution and prosecution by the legal authorities who accuse her of violating the law; her defiant denunciation in court that. If the lawmakers had to bear the children, they would change the law quickly enough; and then the final nope of relief through the statement of Chicago judge, recommending that he laws be changed wisely so that it would not be a felony to discuss such matter publicly.
 In this great picture the principal roles are played by Miss Weber, as the doctors wife; Phillips Smalley as the doctor; Priscilla Dean as the rich young wife; Wedgewood Nowell, as the rich young husband; Evelyn Selbie, as the wife of the poor man and Harry DeMore as her husband
 The author, Miss Weber, who wrote thls remarkable photoplay, adds the following note:
 The cases recorded in these scenes are authentic. have purposely avoided the frlghtful conditions of the slums or those of the heights of affluence, in an effort to represent my audience, the general public.''
