AT The QUEEN.

The cameramen OF the italian army
who filmed the stirring escapades and
battles OF the heroes of the peninsula
country, which are graphically depict
ed in "Haly's Flaming Front" which
is now playing at the Queen, risked
their lives in their work. Every scene
is an actual happening and not made
up for the screen. The battles, the
aerial and naval engagements and the
skirmishes in The mountains are all
true and real. everyone Of which has
actually taken place. Two Of the men
who were engaged in the work died or
rather were killed and the others who
survived were awarded medals for bray
cry displayed under IRE.
Shoulder Arms" with the incom-
parable Charlie, is still. as riotous as
ever and always full bf laughs and
funny and amusing acting on the part
OF Charlie especially, and Of some Of
his compairiots.

WARDROBES MAY BE TAKEN OVER
 BY GOVERNMENT

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 30.-Threats of coming confiscation of the con tents of German wardrobes, in order to collect 100000 civilian suits for war workers, are the subject of sa- tire in many of the newspapers in Berlin and elsewhere.
 The Vorwaerts chuckles over the possibility that von Hertling may have to appear at Court in patched pants and that von Kuehlman may arrive at the peace conference with holed elbows. One humOrist sug- gests that, to save clothes, all per sons over 55 years of age be ordered to remain in bed until eighteen months after the war. Another rec ommends widespread cultivation of the fig tree.
 The threats have, however, had effect In Munich, it is reported, 13,0O0 complete suits have been giv- en up although only 11,300 were de- handed.
 Berlin is still hopelessly behind

 By the way, MT. Wood is one of those National Rebublicans whom the Wicktes of Alaska have been quoting as favoring the election of Judge Wicker sham in Alaska Another of them is Chairman Hays who was doing Constructive Criticism team work with Mr. Wood until the latter repudiated by the Iowa voters.
 One by the people are taking care of the "Constructve Critics" those who are trying to gain power by fighting the Administration, by fight ing all who are doing their best to give the peo- pie good government good work, constructive de- veopment, and to whip the Huns.

FL PASO, Tex, Aug. 30.-Indus- trial alcohol made from cacti, over alls for American soldiers in France and old tin cans are some of the things the war industrial survey has discovered of value in it's recent survey of Fl Paso. One local firm makes a speciality of manufacturing blue denim overalls and it may be possible to obtain cotton for these from the Jagu- ma cotton field near Torreon, Mex The alcohol, used extensively in the manufacture of munitions, is manufactured at the cactus alcohol plant near Fort Bliss from desert casti. Tin cans are bought at the shelter here for the metal con tained in them and will be salvaged from the city dump piles.

and many complaints of unfairness are made about the number of suits required from the metropolis, eight times more than was demanded from Munich whereas Berlin is only four times the size of Munich.
 Complaints are manifest of hard ships on the lower and middle class es. Radical newspapers accuse the authorities of undue consideration to the wealthy classes.

 MT Smith didn't like the house he was living in, so he decided to sell it and buy another house. He put the matter in the hands of real estate agent. One day Mir. Smith saw house for sale advertisement in newspaper. The description of the house agreed exactly with MT. Smiths needs. The more he read of the beauty and comforts of the house for sale in the advertisement the more Smith wanted that house. So Smith called up the real estate agent and said:
 There is a house advertised for sale in the News by A B. C., care News office. It is the very house I want. See A. B. c. and buy it from him."

 The outlook thus far is extremely encouraging. The public, from big financiers down to day laborcrs seem to have confidence in the outcome. Thus far the psychological atmos phere,' a big factor in any public un- dartaking, is right to begin with.
 This confidence has been increased by the first acts of the director gen eral. Secretary McAdoo has taken held of the big principles involved in Wy suggesting real knowledge and nastery of the situation. He has wisely left the actual operation of the lines in the hands of practical railroad men, There is much evidence of sound business sense, and very little of poll ties.

SAVING X BILLION DOLLARS.

A New York financial expert says that it is reasonable to expect a say ing of billion dollars a year in rail road management as a result of cen tralized operation under the govern ment.
 This sounds incr adble. It would mean a saving of about , per cent on the total value of the railroads. 1t would thus mean that our whole vast transportation system could be ear ried' financially, paying practically all legitimate interest and dividends eN- tirely out of the economiaS effected. Such result would make the re railroads an easy matter. Ii would soon put them on their feet and make them genuinely prosperous, progras- sive and serviceable.
 How can this miracle be worlcd' There is no mystery about t. Just consider, the experts say, the euor- nous waste that will be eliminated by merely getting rid of the factor oI competition. Railroads are no longer obliged to maintain expensive statfS and offices and equipment devoted to. the purpose of getting business away from each other. Hundreds of pas, senger and freight offices may bel abolished. Thousands of agents, clerks, publicity men. etc, empoyo | in the elaborate system of competi- tive struggle will no longer be needed. Much expensive advertising will be stopped. Fast and expensive passen- ger trains operated primarily for ad vertising purposes will be cut off. Lawyers fees will be greatly reduced. 1 because of the lessened litigation.
 Hundreds of millions will be saved by the cooperative Use of rolling stock and uackagc and shops which under the old system were half wasted in competitive struggle.

LIBERTY BONDS AS COLLATERAL.

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has had occasion to appeal to mai'- chants to cease offering to accept Lib erty bonds in payment ot goods put- chased
 Tine practice defeats one Of thc ob- lccts of issuing the bonds-the plan to distribute them among the population to have and to hold uatil maturity.
 The practice complained of, accord ing to the secretary, also makes it harder to sell subsequent bonds, though many qualified to give an opir- ion do net agree with the secretary as to this contention.
 It is probable that merchants in this city who have been accepting bonds in payment for merchandise will discontinue this practic" in Geferencc to the wishes of the secretary.
 It has been said-and probably truthfuly-that in the past bonds have had a tendency to move toward the eotfers of large concerns who pur. chased them below par. and that fin ally they would be held by eompar- ativaly few people, just as f they had purchased them in the first place.
 This is to be avoided in thc ease of the Liberty bond issues The Liberty , 2's particularly are in great 2e- mand by large corporations and are getting into their poas ession very swiftly. These bonds are entirely taxi exempt, and it is easily seen that large insurance companies are only too glad to turn their hundreds of millions in surplus into this Liberty bond issue-they gat them below par from persons anxious to seil them and don't have to pay q cent of taxes on ,her holdings for twenty wears.
 The administration has seen through .he game and has acted accordingly. i
