UNCLE SAM DEFENDS
HIGHER PHONE RATE
Contends Suits by States Should Be
Dismissed
HEARIN Con NEXT MONDAY
Government Contends Burleson Has
Authority to Manage as He
Sees Fit.

Washington, May 2.--lnc"easc Of
intra-State telephone toll rates by
the Postmaster General was defended
in a brief filed by the government to-
day in the Supreme Court in co.nec-
tion with pending appeals from
South Dakota and Massachusetts
courts. The State authorities in their
appeals have contcnded the increase
was an undue interference with their
police powers.
The government in its brief de-
clares the suits instituted by the
South Dakota and Massachusetts au-
thorities to restrain the Postmaster
General from increasing the rates
were in reality brought against the
United States without it's consent and
should be dismissed. The government
also contends that in taking over con-
troll of the telephone systems of the
country the President "placed them
in the hands Of the Postmaster Gen
eral as his representative, under the
broad power given him by the reso-
lltion to manage as he saw fit" and
they thus were in effect added to the
postal service and "became as much a
part of the means of conveying news
or communication as the mail"

Blackton's latest screen masterpiece,
which will be at the Pastime Theatre
Thursday, May Is.
Here is a screen production which
truly may be called a triumph.
Its splendid theme-the cause of
civilization upheld by the fighting
forces of America and the Allied ma
tions-is presented in splendidly
convincing manner; it's drama, rich in
virility and pathos, is portrayed by
cast unrivaled in the history of the
screen; its comedy touches are unctu-
GUS and are artistically handled; it's
war scenes, with tanks, battlcplanes,
big guns and masses of men in action,
are powerful and authentic
"Thc Common Cause" comes as
near being perfect blend of patriotic
propaganda and entertaining drama
as anything that has evcl been shown
on the screen. The production was
made under the auspices of and with
the cooperation of the British Canad-
ian Recruiting Mission, and Commo-
dore Blackton also had the assistance
OF American, French and Italian of
ticers and troops in the making of a
mighty subject. The result is
screen feature not only of great time
liness now, but also one which will
live and endure.
The production is fitting successor
to "The Battle Cry of Peace" "Wo-
manhood, the Glory Of the Nation"
and "Over the Top" three powerful
war subjects given to the screen by
Vltagraph. distributor OF this latest
effort of Commodore Blackton.
The cast in "The Common
Cause" is a triumph in itself, because
it is doubtful if there has ever been
screen production which brought to-
gether such wonderful array of tai
ent. Herbert Rawlinson and Sylvia
Dreamer, the featured stars in COM
pany Of stars, are both known to
screen fans because Of their work in
big productions, and the same thing
applies to Huntley Gordon, Charles
and Violet Blackton, Louis Dean. Mile.

4 TRIBUTE

The death angel visited the home Of
MIR. and Mrs. j. T. Rhodus last We'd
nesday and took from them their
darling little baby, age six months.
She was sick about three weeks All
was done that loving hands and medi-
cal skill could do but God in His
wisdom knew best and took her home
to rest.
She is gone but not forgotten,
The voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in, the home
That never can be flied.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low,
Thou no more will join our number,
Thou no more our song shall know.
A loving aunt,
Sallie Wise.

GUM"
The story Of "The Common Cause"
is complete story of the war, start
ing out with a prologue, picturine the
betrayal of Belgium and the entrance,
in their order, of the Allies into the
war. The development of the romance
begins at a Red Cross fete in New
York City, with the introduction of
the three principal characters.-Orrin
Palmer, successful consulting engi-
neer; Helene, his wife, a social but
terfy, and Edward Wadsworth, a
young bachelor, with whom she is in
fatuated.
Gossip long has connected the
names Of Helene and Wadsworth, and
at the Red Cross fete Palmer discov-
ers Wadsworth kissing his wife's
hand.
America has just entered the war,
and Helene, her husband gone, throws
herself with energy into war work,
and it is through her insstence that
WadsWorth enlists, after she tells
him that tn cir "petty loves" should
be forgottenin such crisis. And at
the same time, in the Far West, Pal
mer, unknown to his wife, enlists and
gets commission as a captain in the
Marine Corps.
The scene changes to Chateau
Thierry, with the dramatic meeting
there Of Palmer and Wadsworth as
their regiments enter the village. And
also there is Helene, in charge of a
Red Cross station. Then is shown
most thrillingly and with every regard
/ to historical accuracy, the fatcful
! struggle for possession of the town.
AS the Americans are fighting
| against the onslaught of the Huns,
Captain Palmer has brief moment
| with his wife, when he finds her at
her post Of duty, which she refuses
to leave, even at his pleadings. The
action of the picture follows the
Americans to their prepared trenches
| mer calls for volunteers TO ascertain
the strength Of the enemy, mission
meaning almost certain death, and
Wadsworth is first to volunteer. Pal
mer, knowing nothing except that his
wife and WaL3Iorth are in the town
| together, bids the man a soldiers
| God speed, and when he does not re-
turn, himself crawls out into No
Mans Land and brings him in sorely
wounded.
| Meanwhile Helene, bravely sticking
to her post of duty, falls into the
clutches Of brutal German general,
but is saved, temporarily. when one
of the two little French refugees
whom she is befriending, snatches the
Huns pistol from him and she covers
him with her own weapon. All
through the night she sits across a
table from her enemy, her frail hand
holding the heavy weapon at his
heart. Just at dawn Nature gives
way and as her eyes close for a sec
ond, the Hun springs on her and dis
arms her.
