Florence Reed, the talented emo tional screen and stage star, comes to the West End Theater in the wide ly heralded United Picture Theatres. Inc, offering Her Code of Honor, which picturizes a thrilling story of artist life in the Latin Quarter, Paris. The scene then shifting to New ork, the plot runs swiftly through momen- tous situations, and holds, it is said, the audience in suspense as to the ultimate outcome until the final scene.
 With this dual role, that Of the struggling young artist in Paris and then as the well-to-do American glrl fin New York, Miss Reed is said to offer the most powerful work of her screen career. and in fact the talented star is reported to have said of 'Her Code of Honor" that it is the best picture she has ever made.

CHICAGO BANKER ON IMITATION OF
 CUR CURRENCY

John J. Arnold, vice president of the First National Bank of Chicago, on the solicitation of the Division of Public Works and Construction De- velopment, Information and Educa- tion Service of the U. S. Department of Labor, has made a statement on ''1qfla ton and Prices" in which he says 1t is futile for industry to wait for. pre-war commodity prices. MT. Arpold's statement Is being circulated by .the Information and Education serivice.
 The Chicago banker dissents from the; popular opinion that the United States has become the worlds banker" and points out that we are a creditor nation only and as such our responsibilities are heavy ones not without dangerous possibilities.
 The situation which confronts us is serious" says MT. Arnold, and 1t may be necessary that our govern ment. accept from the European gov- ernments further government bonds. or promises to pay, for the interest which will be due from year to year.
 Tt is desirable from every view point that government financing should be discontinued at the earliest possible moment. Private enterprise should be stimulated by private financing, which will most quickly bring about defation.
 ''The high cost of commodities and labor, of course, is partly due to the increased demand for raw materials and the curtailment of production for peace purposes.
 The world today Is glutted with government securities, which include both bonds and the medium of cir culaion known as currency, and the sooner we begin the process of reduc- ing both the sooner can we figure on a lower cost of living.
 From the standpoint of the stu dent of economics, it is absolutely futile for peace industry to wait long,

STORIES ABOUT STARS THAT YOU LIKE TO SEE SHINE

CT Tor pre-war commodity prices, and everything should be done to en. courage the resumption of peace bus :. mess, which alone can accomplish what we all desire
 Tn other words, the production of rew wealth is absolutely essential for the reduction of costs The normal way to reduce the price Of wheat is through the farms producing a large quantity. That is to say, we must place the emphasis on a greater pro- auction rather than upon consump- ton of comm odities, while in the field of governmental securities the op- posite is the end to be accomplished
 Mr. Arnold calls attention to the 1act that increasing loans and de- posits in equal amounts, without lim- 1tatons, shows nc added strength to an institution and may prove danger ous. Loans within the power to pay are legitimate and reflect, probably, a healthy state of affairs, but Mr Arnold points out that in Europe government obligations have been made beyond their ability to pay within a stated period. He calls attention, also, to the fact that much of the govern men borrowing has been for destruo- ton rather than construction and therefore, much of the money in these loans has been spent for things which produce no wealth and have no earning power.
 MT. Arnold suggests that the Unit ed States use the interest paid by foreign countries on their loans for xx
 rehabilitation fund" to be spent in Europe which would mean that for the period of time required for the rebuilding of Europe we would be loaning our funds without interest,
 T think it is generally admitted" says MT. Arnold. that the greatest investment we. as country, have ever made was when we renitted China the amount of the Boxer indemnity. This has brought about an upder- standing between China and America and a relation of friendship which could not have been accomplished in so short time in any other away. A contribution such I am suggesting would forever eliminate the charge of dollar diplomacy in our inter- national life, but even aside from the harvest which we would be likely to reap in friendship, I am confident that in the long run it would prove profitable even in dollars and cents."

LYRIC.

The patrons of the Lyric theatre their regret upon the farewell of the excellent PoH Players. In the fare well notes appearing in the program this week by the cast of players, the utmost regret is expressed upon the saying of good bye. Bridgeport au- diences will miss the delightful, well liked. and admired players. AL though their going away is deeply regretted, the assurance that possibly some of the present company may come back is justly appreciated.
 As the closing performance of the season, Manager Arvine has chosen a super comedy full of laughter from the rise of the curtain until the final word in the last act. Scintilating humor prevails throughout the entire production and it Is safe to say that The High Cost of Loving" is the funniest comedy yet presented here Staged in three acts, the action of the amusing. interesting and entertain ing story of the mustard merchant, played by Grant Erwin, takes place in the parlor of the home of Ludwig Klinke.
 Mir. Erwin has been given a part in which he literally shines" this week, in the character of Ludwig. His make up, mannerisn, speech, and action are fully appreciated, and while he carries the heaviest part. the other players appear to ad- vantage, and all offer a thread to the entanglement of the tense situations in the climax.
 And so this week Is really the last In which one will have an opportun- fty to enjoy the delightful company and meanwhile say and wish them a good bye, good luck and God bless you"
