Valeska Suratt, the famous screen
star, appears at the Temple today for
the second time. The story is "The
Straight Way" and is full of throb-
bing interest of woman's quest for
happiness. Revenge is the motive
which guides the life of a good wom-
an whose happiness had been ruined
by injustice. Happiness is her goal
and she seeks it by plotting against
the man whose injustice caused her
suffering. She wins, and the entire
family are reunited, but she realizes
the injustice of her method, as It
brought suffering to all. Miss Suratt
takes the part of the misunderstood
wife, and Elsie Balfour takes the part
CT the lovable young daughter, whose
existence has been entirely forgotten
by the mother, whose mind became
affected after train accident. Hand
some Glen White takes the part of the
young girls lover, an innocent ex-
convict. Herbert Heyes, the hero or
Under Two Flags" is the husband.
Miss Suratt has the opportunity to
wear her innumerable beautiful
gowns.
Mrs. Lang Goodyear, who has been

T. d. JONES on EXPORTS BOARD
Man Rejected for Federal Reserve
Board Succeeds E. N. Hurley.
BY United Press

by United Rress
WASHINGTON, August 9-Thomas
d. Jones, Chicago business man and
capitalist, whose nomination to the
Federal Reserve Board was opposed
by the Senate after a memorable fight
has been appointed a member of the
Exports Administration Board, sue
ceeding Edward N. Hurley, who be-
came chairman of the Shipping Board
The Exports Administrative Board
is the right hand of the Exports Coun-
Gil, through which supplies are being
kept from being sent to Germany by
way of neutrals.
The appointment OF Jones to the
present position requires no approval
by the Senate, which rejected his
to the Federal Reserve
Board in 1913, on the ground of
close connection with big business"

THE OPEN COLUMN
For n Public PHfk.

Editor the Missourian: Columbia
has a population Of about thirteen
thousand, and it seems to me that
some provision should be made here
for a public park. The townspeople
do not see the necessity of such a
place for amusement. They depend too
much upon the University to furnish
all amusement in Columbia 1t should
be taken into consideration that many
people do not live near the University,
and do not go to the campus to take
pleasant stroll or enjoy warm ev-
ening under the trees. II would be a
good thing If Columbia could secure
plot of ground centrally located. and
establish a park and playground.
Many cities have made the mistake
of disregarding the park until all of
the land centrally located was used
up. If Columbia could do something
about it now before the city grows any
larger, she would not regret it. Later
on when more ground is built up with
business houses and residences, iii
will be very difficult to find a suitable
place for a park. and it will mean the
of large sum of money
This is a splendid time 20 start a park

TAX COMMISSION STATES STAND
Lower Rates for Taxpayer and Higher
for DOdger Is Policy

The State Tax Commission, charged
with the enforcement of the revenue
laws, makes its position on tax mat
ters very plain. The Commission au-
thorizes the following as true state
ment of its position. and repudiates
all or any other representations OF
Misrepresentation:
Lower rates of taxation for all,
lower taxes for all who have been ac-
customed to paying; larger receipts
from tax dodgers and greater value
in return for money spent.
Besides lower rates and lower
taxes, the commission will vigorously
enforce economy in expenditure and
equity in collection.
The increase of valuation which
will follow assessment according to
law-'actual cash value in money
will be more than offset by reduction
in rates. The commissions aim, de-
and power will so lower
all rates levied as to reduce the
amount paid by those heretofore pay
ing.
The commission insists that lit
eral compliance with the law is abso-
lutely necessary TO secure low taxes,
and equity. Any other
policy means waste, extravaganza,
high taxes. inequality. injustice and
chaos.
The supremacy of the law is the
welfare of the people"

FAMOUS CASE NEAR SETTLEMENT
st. Clair County Bond Issue Troub,a
in Federal Court 40 Years
By United PreA


SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, August o
Litigation over the old railroad bonds
issued by st. Clair County, which has
dragged through the Federal Cour,
for the last 40 years, will be settIed
if a compromise proposal made 70
Gently by the bondholders is ratified
by the taxpayers. The matter will be
submitted to the people at a special
election to be held in November.
The bOndholders have expressed ,
willingness to accept a settlement on
basis of about IA per cent on the total
Indebtedness against the county. The
principal and interest on the bonds
now total s4.393. 900. many times the
face value of the original bonds. The
figure is $3.50 900.

DEPENDS on FRANCE

Premier Lloyd George said last
week that the success of the Allies
depend on the spirit of the French
people. This is one of the big things
that Lloyd George has said since his
last visit to the front in France. He
was astonished at the enthusiasm and
freshness and calm confidence of the
men and women of France
France has suffered more than any
other country in this war because all
the big battles have been fought on
her soil. She has stood the most ter
rife blows of the Germans. The
spirit of the French people is today
fresher and more vigorous than ever
before
1t has been the most wonderful sac
rifice that a people can make, that of
the French. but the reward is to
those that persevere, and it will come
soon and France will be greater than
before. The history of her people
will be an example to all generations.
The war depends on the spirit of the
French and the spirit of the French
will not fail.
Vive la France

MAINTAIN EFFICIENCY

The railroads of the United States
in letters to public service commits
sions have announced that the work
of eliminating grade crossings is not
essential in winning the war" and
will therefore be suspended for the
duration of the conflict The building
of new depots is also named as being
an unnecessary expense.
Strict war economy should be prac-
ticed by all public and private cOrpo-
rations, but not at the expense of the
efficiency of these organizations. Con-
servation of resources should not be
used as an excuse for inefficiency or
the adding of needed improvements.
The place where an American life is
lost is immaterial-be it a dangerous
railroad crossing or a foreign battle
field. The lives of those who stay at
home to bolster the industries of the
nation are as precious as those who
go forth to defend her honor. The
inner life of the United States must
be carried on with the same degree
of effectiveness.
Where economy and conservation
can be practiced without lowering the
power of any machine or organization
they should be applied at every op-
portunity, but, like other things per-
tanning to physical struggle, war
economy should not be made to run
wild. 1t should be taken with a
pinch of conservatism-econom not |
for its own sake, but as an "anti-fat"
potion to whip into fighting trim a |
too corpulent nation.
An overdose may mean the weaken !
ing of the economic structure.

MILK PRICE TO REMAIN HIGH
Heavy Rains Will Not Cause Lower.
ing of Cost. Says Dairy.

Notwithstanding the rain which fell
the first of the week the price of
milk will remain twelve cents a
quart, according to the managers of
the White Eagle Dairy. The dairy
last week raised the price from eight
cents. The step was taken not so
much on account of the drought, as
on account of the high cost of feed
for stock, says the White Eagle man

Those whose numbers indicate that
they will not be drawn until tie sec

this fact and start worrying: Hun
dreds of drafted men are swarming
into the ranks of the regular army
thus leaving fewer men to choose
from. This may crowd up the order
of draft and encroach upon those who
consider themselves temporarily safe.
