Friday, January 20 and 80.

play from Harold Bell Wright's truly
great novel, shown at the Opie Theatre.
Thursday and Friday, January 80 and 80
is big. intensely interesting production.
tits unnecessary to say anything about
the plOt-let it suffice that it concerns a
group of the most interesting characters
ever presented. Monroe Salisbury, as
the cynical LeGrange, is easily the out
standing character in the photoplay.
Jack Livingston, as the struggling
artist; Kathleen Kirkham, as the de-
signing Mrs Taine; Jane Novak, as the
pure hearted Sybil; Edward Peil. as the
sensuous Rutlidge; Lurline Lyons, as
the pitiful Myra Willard; Arthur Ia
wares, as her prosecuted brother, Jack
Mcdonald, as the disgusting crippled
Taine, and Fred Burns, as the ikeable
forest ranger. all do vividly splendid
work in big roles.
The exteriors are things of beauty.
The rugged, towering mountains OF San
Bernardino county, and orange groves
and rose gardens around Redlands, the
locale of the story. have been exquisitely
photographed into scenes of rare charm.
1t took eight months to film The
Eyes of the World" and the photoplay
shows it in the careful working out Of
the smallest detail.
One show only, at 8 o'clock sharp.

STEEL MAKERS SAY CAR SHORTAGE MAY
 FORGE SHUTDOWN
Serious Situation COnfrOnts,
 Industry, Railroad Heads are Told

Washington, July 10.-A shut down of steel mills is threatened be- cause of the car shortage, represen- tatives of more than a score of steel
 manufacturers today informed the interstate commerce commission
 Daniel Willard, chairman of the ad- visory committee of the Association
 of Railway executives, who also ap- peared, was equally insistent, how
 ever, that any general suspension of
 industry would be averted and that
 improvement was possible in the steel trade.
 "The steel mills are blocked with products, many closed and others Twill be before July 20 unless some relief can be had," declared J. F. Townsend, spokesman for the steel
 men, who explained that 28,0OO cars would be required to move 1,500,- 900 tons of steel products awaiting shipment.
 MT. Willard conceded that prac- tically every space available for stor- ing steel was in use, but predicted that the mills "can be kept going
 by the shippers and the local car ser Ivice committees cooperating in as- signment of available cars.
 "1 believe there will not be any general shut down of industry" he declared. "The situation, I believe, will not get any worse, and I believe we can make it better"
 MT. Townsend and MT. Willard were among the half score witnesss appearing at the closing session of the commissions hearing on possible modification of its order requiring preference given coal mines east of the Mississippi, in the assignment of
 open top cars. No indication of the
 commissions probable action was |given at adjournment, Chairman Clark
 announcing that the question would
 be taken under advisement.
