PUBLIC BE DAMNED IS NEW DRAMA AT
 EMPRESS TONIGHT

Tonight and tomorrow a strong and vital photoplay, "The Public Be Damned" an expose of the food gam blers, a striking picturization of the food trust, that most criminal com bination of Americas business his tory, which grinds alike the farmers and the people in it's unsuitable desire for profits, will be seen at the En- press. It traces back to the cause of today's excessive cost of living, shows the effect and suggests the remedy.
 Following the drama is two-reel comedy, f"The Movie Dummy" featur- ing Toto, the clown wizard. Toto is in B class all by himself in the fun-making line, and his work in this comedy is novel and original.

CHANGE FOR MEN AS SCOUTS.

Frequently some men are heard to say: q wish there had been boy scouts. when I was a boy. I'd like to have had their chance of having a real gang and doing the things they do in the outdoors"
 No one is too old to be a scout. There are 14,918 men serving as scOutmasters, and 17203 hold commits siOns as assistant scoutmasters. For each of the 16,541 troops organized there is a committee of three men whose duty it is to back up the scout master and assist the troop in every possible manner.
 There is a crying need for more leaders, as there are thousands of boys waiting to get into troops. If you wish you had been a scout, you can at least lead the boys now to be scouts. It will do you a lot of good yet, and also do the boys a great amount of good.
 There is nothing in life so full of genuine satisfaction as to hold the WhOle-sOuled admiration of 32 young sters

GLAD HIS BOY IS A SCOUT

At a recent father and son banquet sn Chicago the father of a scout made the following speech, according to O. l.. Duggan, field executive:
 When my boy came to me several years ago and said he wished to join the boy scouts said emphatically No. A few days later he asked a second time to be allowed to join a troop that was being formed at the church. said No again, but immediately began to investigate scouting and found it to be not at all what I had thought, a young army, but that it taught many good and useful things. Still l did not tell him that he might join.
 "A few days later he came to me a third time and said: Dad, why don't you want me to join the boy scouts? Then l said to him: "Son, didn't want you to join the scouts, but have made an investigation and if you will prom 1se me that you will live up to the oath and law of that organization I will give you my consent to join He was a happy boy and joined the scout troop Rt the next meeting.
 T cannot tell you how thankful I am that he did join the troop. I can not think of any other one thing that Vas done as much for my boy as being scout. We are pals together. My son tells me everything. He is a good boy and good scout, and the scout or ganizatiOn and the scoutmaster deserve all the credit for what he is today"

COTTON MILLS ARE
 UNDER INVESTIG ALTON

Washington, August 3.-tSpecial)-- Cottxl mill operators in North and South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama are made aware that the treasury de- partment has agents on the scene of their operations for the purpose of gathering information on which de- mands for payment of increased excess profit taxation might be made.
 As a reaction of the effort of Sena- tor Conner to force exchanges to de liver high grade cotton to purchasers, this movement is afoot. It is based on the general report that during the last year cotton mills is the south made undreamed of profits. and refrained from paying commensurate taxes by declaring stock dividends or turning in plants at figures vastly in excess of their real value.
 It is said to be the plan of the treas ury department to demonstrate through the inspection of it's agents that the valuation of the plants should be greatly reduced and that the taxation should be relatively increased.
 Senator Dial of South Carolina, a cot ton mill operative, said today that he was aware of the plans of the treasury department He predicted that the op- orators will be compelled to resort to injunction proceedings in the federal courts if the treasury attempted to go behind the returns made in the form of income tax reports.

Washington, August 3.-(Special)- Southern senators in Washington are prone 10 diseredit the statements of Daniel Willard of the Baltimore and Ohio, and Fairfax Harrison of the Southern Railway Company that the recent increase in freight and passen- ger rates granted by the interstate commerce commission will reduce the cost of living.
 Senator's Underwood of Alabama Fletcher of Florida and Dial of South Carolina, asked today for opinions as to the above, failed to agree. The rail- road officials based their conclusions on the belief that the railroads. with more money. would be able to adopt a more elastic policy and indulge in de- Velopments of which the people at large would reap the benefit. The senators. however. think that the people will have to pay the freight, but that there is a chance that the railroads will be abled to grant better service.

 "No, my friend" said the aged bank CT, that wouldn't be good finance Why should the Lord wait till I reached par, when He can pick me up at 9O?'
