OHIO IS AFTER
FOOD HOARDERS
VIOLATION OF COLD STORAGE
LAWS CHARGED AGAINST
MANY PERSONS.
GOVERNOR cox is ACTIVE
He Charges That Packers Ship Food
Back and Forth to Deceive
Officials and Hold Mar

Columbus, O.--Approximately forty
warrants charging Ohio food dealers
with violations Of the cold storage law,
many of which are against local man
ayers of the big Chicago packing com
nanies, we're issued by the state of
Ohio, according to Gov James M, Cox
and Attorney-General John G. Price.
In addition, Gov Cox appealed to Uni
ted States Attorney, General Palmer to
seize approximately 100000 pounds
of meat and poultry which have been
held in cold storage houses longer than
the period allowed under the Ohio law.
Gov. Cox, in his telegram to United
States Acknowledgement Palmer, said
evidence has been uncovered by in
spectors of the state dairy and food
department that some of the big Chi
cago packing companies have shipped
food into the state and then back TO
Chicago ard again shipped it into the
state and sold for the double pur-
pose of deceiving the authorities Of
Ohio and Illinois and of keeping food
necessities off the market in order
that deficiency and higher prices
might come together" On this alleged
showing the governor asks the fed
eral encouragement to bring Grim
inal prosecutions, offering evidence
gathered by Ohio officials with which
to prosecute.

New YorKs-Europe's three plague
spots-Hungary, Turkey and Russia
ere now beyond the control of the al

America as the only nation capable
Of helping them out of their domestic
turmoil.
An American commission has ar
rived at Constantinople and has be-
gun taking evidence among the Turks
as to wha& should be done by the
great powers in order to establish or
der In the Ottoman empire and save
the country from anarchy.
The Turks are answering that their
troubles cannot be dispersed unless
the United States agrees to accept the
mandate of the league OF nations to
govern Constantinople. The European
nations all have personal interests to
serve in Constantinople, and if any
Of them is given control of the city
the Turks expect resumption Of all
the former intrigue and department
scandals.
Only America can be trusted to gov
ern Constantinople, say the Turks, for
the best interests and future welfare
Of the inhabitants.
simultaneously with the tribute to
the Americans in Constantinople the
Archduke Joseph, Hungarys new die
tator, has issued a statement crediting
the American food commission with
saving Hungary from degenerating
anew into anarchy.
Without the Americans Hungary
would be unable to revive even what
few industrial enterprises have been
resumed. No help can be offered the
Hungarians from European source,
and the Archduke's Joseph's own posi-
ton is secure only as long as Ameri
can food continues to arrive.
At the same time the only effective
weapons at the disposal of the allies
is preventing the Roumanians from
annexing Hungary is the
threat that the United States will
economically blacklist Roumania if
the orders of the peace conference are
not carried out.
No European nation can make a
gesture at the Rouman-
lans which the latter need fear Only

the United States has decisive influ-

can country south Of the Rio Grande,
United States troops Of the Eighth
cavalry, aided by airmen as scouts,
are combing the mountains for the
bandits who held the two American
aviators for $4,000 ransom.
Saddle-weary and rain-soaked, the
troops continued pushing forward, de-
spite the storms that swept the noun
famous region south of the Rio
GrandeBig Bend district Torrential
rains fell in the Oiinaga district and
low visibility prevented good airplane
scout service.
It was believed the comparatively
small number of bandits under Jesus
Renteria we're hidden in the noun
tains and that every pass would have
to be searched.
The district within the angle formed
by junction of the Rio Grande and
Conchos rivers isgthe widest section
Of Northern Mexico, noted for rugged
mountains, deep canons and barren
deserts. The Conchos river flows into
the Rio Grande near Ojinga after
tunbling through San Juan pass from
0uchillo Pardao to Jan Juan del Rio.
Both rivers are lined with cottonwood
trees. Lowland farms In Delta Con
chos are the only green spots to be
seen in the entire district, where Palo
Verde, mesquite and cactus grow
Barren hills, rocky canons and noun
tains are suporimposed on mesas be-
yond the border, over which winding
trails are traced in white.
Along these trails the cavalrymen
we're making their way. The col
amns often were forced to break into
attachments and wind slowly up the
sides of mountains, down box canons,
always alert for bandit ambush. Sol
diers and officers wore wet uniforms,
caked with dust. Their horses were
tired from their long forward march,
The troopers are on field rations
from mule pack trains, as no field
kitchens were taken.
The communication line is being
maintained to the border, along which
supply trains and couriers pass from
the base on the American side to the
columns in the field
An American airplane returned
from a scouting trip into Mexico with
two bullet holes through a wing Of the
machine. The aviator observer said
he was fired on by three Mexicans.
He returned the fire with machine
gun and believed he killed one. The
cavalry is pursuing the bandits, he
said.

First Author to Break into Movies.
For the first time III the history of
motion pictures an author has taken
his work, made a multiple reel feature
thereof, and is counted among the
nations leading producers, working.
however, along lines that are abso-
lutely new TO the film industry.
Harold Bell Wright, the worlds
most famous author is the first writer
to break in as a motion picture pro-
Queer. He selected a staff of talented
players and staged his novel, "The
Shepherd of the Hills" and the result
of his cinema invasion will be shown
at the Royal Theater for two days, be-
ginningSaturday, November LIST.
The booking of the picture by the
Royal Theater reveals the fact that
the author and producer is also acting
as his own distributor and supervis-

ing the screening of his production
throughout the country E. w. Rey-
nolds, publisher of the Wright novels,
and w. T. Gaskell, leading Chicago
impresario, are associated with the
author in marketing his initial film.
{ The departure from the regular "re-
lease" or programme" booking of
pictures is noteworthy, in that the
producer is having no trouble in the
placing of his feature in the leading
theaters of the larger cities. The pic
ture has just completed extended runs
in San Francisco and hos Angles,
where it broke all attendance records.
The cast selected to bring the book
to life includes such talented players
as Harry Lonsdale, Catherine Curtis,
George Mcdaniel, Don Bailey, Bert
Sprotte, Lon Poff, C. Edwin Raynor,
Artlita Mellimino, George Hackathorn

PAULINE FREDERICK
LIKE "SAPHO," SPEAKS
FRENCH LIKE NATIVE
This Fact Leads to Amusing Incident
During Screening of Big
"SaphO" Picture.

During the filming of "Sapho," the
immortal story of Daudet of French
sculptor's model, in which Pauline
Frederick is being starred by Para
mount and which will be shown at the
Noga'es Theater tomorrow, some of
the members of the cast who did not
know Miss Frederick we'll, began talk
ing in schoolbook French while stand
ing near her waiting for the signal
from the director for their scene.
They made fun Of everything and
everybody in sight and were about to
say something about the sculptor who
was putting the finishing touches to
the statue of Miss Frederick in the
corner of the studio, when the star,
yho could control her laughter no
longer, broke in with a flood of real
Partisan French which so startled the
wouldbe linguists that they turned
and fled in dismay, vowing never to
air any of their accomplishments in
the presence of Miss Frederick again.
The supportig company, headed by
Thomas Meighan, is most praise
worthy.
