Great Picture in THE Warrior
at the Colonial Theatre Saturday

Maciste, the mighty marvel of
strength and agility. has in THE
Warrior" one of the best vehicles
that could be devised as u proper set
ting for his almost miraculous
strength and his quite inimitable
humor. There has been no picture in
recent years that offers more in the
way of entertainment than 1.-THE War
rior. (" There are numerous scenes
showing in great detail the manner in
which the Italian army overcame the
herculean difficulties created by nature
as a barrier between Italy and Austria
Taken in the heart of the Julian
Alps the picture shows the manner in
which the Italian Alpine troopers
scaled the rugged, almost perpendic-
ular slopes of the mountains. The
teats of Maciste in dangerous exploits
are marvellous to behold.

SEN. BORAH URGES
j. S. OWNERSHIP

Legislation providing for the Gov
eminent ownership OF all public utIli-
ties and natural monopolies Is being
prepared Senator Borah OF Idaho, in
advocating Federal control of stock
yards yesterday. indicated that Cow
eminent control of public utilities
was contemplated.
Senator Borah vigorously defended
the report OF the Federal Trade Com
mission which recommended Federal
regulation and control Of the packing
industry.
Referring to the report OF the COM
mission. the Senator said:
Il am OF the opinion, although II
will be charged as being socialistic,
that the time has come when every
monopoly, and particularly every
natural monopoly. must be taken un-
der the regulation of the Government.
1 am in favor of taking the stock
yards and placing them under the
permanent control of the Government
of the United States. They are a
natural utility; they are a necessary
instrument OF business; they belong
to the entire public. and believe that
when we come to the legislation we
will be able to do something in the
way OF taking over certain parts OF
these business institutions which will
then enable US, perhaps, to regulate
that which is left"

4'GASLESS" SUNDAY
IN FORCE TOMORROW

One hundred per cent observance
tomorrow OF the Government request
to use no gasolene Sunday for pleas
ure car driving is predicted today by
the District Fuel Administration.
No order has been issued to compel
stoppage Of pleasure driving on Sun
day. but the patriotism OF car own
ers is appealed to in order that gaso-
Iene may be saved for war purposes
Less than per cent OF the 10000
automobiles in Washington were in
use last Sunday for pleasure purposes.
1t is the intention OF the fuel officials
to make this percentage even lower.
Restrict use of motor cars to the most
urgent and necessary tasks. Is their
slogan.
Doctors Cars.
In order that physicians on hurry
calls may not be delayed by traffic
officers, they are asked to display
cards prominently on their automo-
biles. announcing that the machine is
being used for necessary work
The Postoffice Department has an
nounced that there will be but one
collection OF mail on Sunday. This
ruling will remain in effect as long
as the Easolene regulation is observed
in Washington.
The single collection will be made
in the residential districts at 8 .. m.
and in the business sections at 6 p.
m. Before the ruling was issued there
have been two collections, one at 4
p. m. and one at 10 p. m.

not consider leaving this city except
under far different conditions to the
present.
Charles Schwab moved most of the
Shipping Board and emergency fleet
establishment to Philadelphia, which
was the logical place for 1t to go, not
being a permanent executive estab-

Let Congress FurnIEh Housing.
Government officials woh have for
months been engaged in handling
housing problems in Washington were
unanimous today in the opinion that
1t will be far cheaper for the Gov
eminent to provide at once appropria-
tions for more housing than to 60 to
the expense of breaking up executive
agencies here. paying high rents else
where. demorRliZing the working
forces, disrupting families and homes
and causing great Inconvenience. Of
fetal and otherwise. As a matter OF
actual money saving. the Government
would profit by quickly providing
money for further housing.
Reports from all cities in the East
as to housing are almost identical
with conditions in Washington. Rent
rates for houses and rooms in Balti-
more, Philadelphia, Wilmington, New
York, Boston, Pittsburgh-everyw
have gone soaring upward. City Of
ficials and public sentiment are fight

places. 1t IL cold fact that increases
in rents in all these places have been

steady fight against profteering has
kept the pirates in bounds.
The location OF army camps
throughout the East, the addition Of
thousands OF workmen to the pay
rolls OF great war Industries in East
ern centers. endless activities that
have shifted humanity to certain
points, have brought congestion that
is bad everywhere.
To the high rents the Government
would have to pay for buildings and
Government workers for their homes,
there would have to be included cost
of transportation, disruption of Gov
eminent business. shifting unwilling
employees to new places, and . gen.
