MORE ALIENS NOW ON ROAD
Aliens are on Their Way to Their
 Former Homes.

New York, April IA steady in. crease in number of immigrants ex- cluded from the United States and de- ported was announced at Ellis Islane today.
 Deportation of aliens who fail to meet the immigration requirements are now about five per cent of the ar rivals compared with three per cent before the war, when immigration was much heavier. The literary test is chiefly responsible for the increase ac> cording to officials, but many of those deported are stowaways. Several bands of dozen or so boys have been caught trying to get into the country as stowaways. All vessels leaving for European ports carried aliens.

Little Rock, April 4-More than S16,- 980,000 worth of feed was imported in to Arkansas in 1919, according to the report of the Division of Feed, issued by Jim G. Ferguson, commissioner of mines, manufacturers and agriculture. The importation totaled 2S3,000 tons or age price of $3 per 100-pound sack

VIII be to the fore again during the
next ten days
The amendment win be pressed
for immediate action in the Della
ware Legislature which reconvenes
Wednesday and in louisiana where
the assembly meets May 10. Rati-
fcation By either State will provide
the thirty-six States approval neces-
sary to make the amendment a part
Of the Federal Constitution.
Sunragtsts now are preparing
their forces for a battle to the I'm
tsh In both States. Political ma
neuvering has delayed ratification
Of the amendment so far 1t is
charged in the current issue of the
Sunragist off1cial organ of the Ma
uonal Woman's party.
Foresees Political Capital
The publication points out that
either of the major political par
ties now may seize the opportunity
to bring ratification of the amend
ment and acquire the good will of
millions of new women voters.
The Delaware legislature is Re
publican, the Suffragist Joints out,
while in Louisiana the legislature
Is controlled by the Democrats.
The women of the nation" the
Sunragist warns, will not forgive,
nor partially overlook, further de-
lay in ratification caused by party
politics.
while the Republican party has
allowed ratification to be delayed
for more than a month in Della :
ware, women have lost, in q num-
Der OF States. the chance to help
nominate the candidate of their
party for the Presidency. Primaries
already have been held in more than
twelve States.
Privileges Were CurtaiIed.
In only i've did women participate
on equal terms with men. In one
State, North Dakota, they were al
lowed to vote only for Preside ntial
electors, and in Illinois, although
they voted. a ruling of the attorney
general excluded them from the Of
fcial count. In five States women
took no part at all in the primaries.
Numerically speaking, compared
with the approximately 100000
women of voting age who thus far
have been permitted to enter pri-
maries on equal terms with men,
5000. 900 have been partially or en-
tirely excluded.
Further delay may bring ratifica-
tion too late not only for the pri-
maries, but even for registration for
the November elections"

dent, Gov. Frank o. Lowden, and
the States Republican. leader,
Mayor. william Hale Thompson. of
Chicago, is said to be inevitable as
result of conferences concluding
here yesterday.
Lowden has about decided to "cut
loose" from the mayor, and is obvi-
ously cutting loose also from Rep
resentative Frank L. Smith, Dwight,
Republican State chairman, who has
been acting as his Washington cam
paign manager. Col. Smith, him
self a candidate for governor, is
expected to stand with Thompson
when the break comes.
Back of the Lowden determlna-
tion to bolt is presumably the coun-
sci Of Eastern leaders. They rec
ognize the need of some bold move
to get Lowden in right"
1t probably will be met by the
Thompson-Smith alliance, giving the
governor favorite-son support and
little else in the national convention.
In the Thompson-Smith alliance
may be Representative William A.
Rodenberg, East st. Louis, who may
blossom forth as a senatorial candi-
date. Any alliance embracing the
mayor will never be back of Repre-
sentative McKiley's senatorial aspi-
rations.
Under this plan the down-State
quota of the Illinois delegates-at-
large to the June convention will
include Senator Il Y. sherman, Col.
Smith and Rodenberg In Chicago
the mayor will probably extend the
same senatorial courtesy to Senator
Mccormick.

MOORE's sTRAND-''The Luck Of
the Irish"

This Allan Dwan production was
presented by the Mayflower Photo
play Corporation for a second
weeks showing at Moore's Strand
Theater yesterday. with seemingly
no diminution in its popular appeal.
Adapted from the book of the
same name by Harold MacGrath,
the photo-dramatic version bids fair
to be even more popular than the
printed story, although the latter
in book form became one of the
six best sellers"
The well-known story depicted
certainly needs no retelling at this
late date. Sufice it to say that the
masterful direction and artistry of
Allan Dwan has made possible for
the screen in a manner that causes
one To wonder; story that has
thrilled thousands of fiction lovers.
Bringing Gibraltar, Venice, Naples,
Cairo, Singapore and Hong Kong
to California Is feat in itself, and
from the scenic setting and pic
toriaI standpoint, this is just ex-
actly what Mr.. Dwan has done, ad-
herring closely to the story at all
times and making the most of the
tense action, intrigue, romance,
love, laughter and fights with which
the story aboJnds. The production
certainly deserves to be called q
thriller. il ever there was one.
A cast composed of James Kirk
wood as William Grogan, the plumb
er-philosopher; Anna q. Nilsson as
Ruth Warren; Harry Northrup as
Camden; Ward Crane as Norton Col
burton. and Ernest Butterworth as
the Kid, act their various impor-
tant roles in q superb manner. The
atmosphere maintained throughout

Loew's Palace-''The Little Shepherd
Of Kingdom Come,

There is little doubt in the minds
of critics of American literature
that the name of John Fox, jr.,
stands high in the list of Ameri-
can authors whose worke conCtitute
the finest examples of native writ
ing. Fox is as surely the mouth
piece of the Kentucky hills and
Blue Grass" as Kipling is of the
great Indian empire. and in all his
stories he has probably wrought
nothing with greater skill and more
finished storytelling craftsman
ship than his Little Shepherd of
Kingdom Come" which takes rank
with THE Trail of the Lonesome
Pine" and Heart of the Hills" as
probably the three foremost ex-
amples of his art.
1t can easily be appreciated, ac-
terday revealed a veritable gem of
the silver sheet in the form of a
screen adaptation of this noted Fox
story, in which the dignity and
Juvenile spirit of Jack Pickford has
found a superb setting. The story
itself is not only thoroughly rich
in the very atmosphere of the
mountains and the Blue Grass"
but it is a moving tale Of a poig-
nant love, a bitter fight for a boys
rightful place in the world, and the
rightful reward of fight we'll won.

tablishment as an American aristo-
crat of the first degree for all his

brought to the stars support by
Director Wallace Worsley is as
brilliant as the direction itself. The
cast includes such talented screen
artists as Pauline Starke, Clara
