MURRAY.
Eddie Lyons and Lee Moran, almost
as famous for making stars of their
leading women as they are as screen
testers, have two new and decidedly
pretty feminine foils in "A Shocking
Night" which opens at the Murray
Theatre on Monday.
The fortunate girls, whom preced-
ent would indicate would become
stars, are Alta Allen and Lillian Hall.
Miss Allen played with Max Under.

completed an important role in "The
Last of the Mohicans."
In "A Shocking Night" both girls
have splendid opportunity for drama
tically humorous work.

Male quartettes will occupy the
headline position both the first and
last half on the Murray bill, next
week. Opening Mondey, The Copper
City Four, a quartet composed of four
young chaps who hail from Butte,
Mont. will top the bill. and from all
reports, and from the way they have
been going over this season, they will
not be destined long for vaudeville, as
some production manager will pick
them off. They played the Lyric
Theatre this week at Indianapolis. and

Grafton to the development of their
waterways as a measure to offset the
advantages enjoyed by the eastern
and western seaboards. Government
officials who have been close students
of economic conditions believe that
with the proper development of its
waterways the Mississippi valley re-

the nation, can carry its products by
rivers and canals to the seaboard for
so per cent less than the railroads
do.
Recently a river seamer with the
west coast as it's destination sailed
from Cincinnati ladened with products
of a number of factories located
throughout Indiana and Ohio. The
enterprise proved practical and Off

WINONA LAKE, Ind, May 21.-
Corrupting movies, easy divorce. help

woman's suffrage and detrimental re-
suits to Christianity as an outgrowth
of the world war, are features of the
report of the special committee on
Christian Life and Work submitted

Rev. Hugh b MacCauley, D. D.. of
Paterson, New Jersey.
IF the nation should fall says the
committee. "a faithful church would
survive, but if the church should fail
the nation wolld fail also"
War Results Shown.
Summarizing the results of ques-
tionnaire addressed TO stated clerks
throughout the country, the committee
finds: MANY home ties were broken
by the war. Many drifted away from
the church. New standards Of be-
havior are set up. Temptations swarm
around the young. The crowds throng
. the corrupting movies.
Foreign propaganda is strong, max
. ing us suspicious of our Allies Divorce
is easy and increasing. Crimes Of
violence are multiplied. The church
has her troubles. Even the Lords
Supper reaches only so per cent of
church members In many quarters
he prayer meeting is neglected, the
Sunday evening service is failing, and
family worship and even religion fad
: ing from the home.
But on the other hand, the tide
seems to be rising. Converts are being
, added in large numbers. Our net de-
crease of 2S,715 in 1919 was changed
into net increase of "a ,072 in

be on, every man. Christian, Mohaln-

etc finds: While recognizing the value
OF many of the better films, yet these
in a great degree make for evil and
our. young people are being seriously

going amusement-mad over movie
scenes that defy the Decalogue.

efforts to, reach the masses and bring
them into church.

PRESIDENT CALLS FOR
rigid ECONOMIES
Director OF the Budget Expected
To ~4oul pin" fer Re-
d. chg Expenditures

Warrington, July 31.-Most rigid
economies must be practiced by the
Government in the next fiscal year.
That is the decision OF President
Warren G. Harding, who hopes
through the activity of Gen. Charles
q. Dawes. director of the budget
and the committee on reorganiza-
ton of the executive departments,
Z to have the expenditures of the Gov
eminent placed on a sane after-the-
; war basis before Congress convenes
its regular session in December.
Acting on the known desire Of
the President that taxes should be
reduced and not shifted. and relief
given the taxpayers. the Ways and
Means Compittee intends to report
a revenue bill which will not raise
anything like $4,000, 100000 to-
sether with the expected yield from
increased custom duties.
What Policy Is
rhe policy which the Ways and
Means Committee will follow in
preparation of the revenue bill will
BE-:
. First ILLUMINATION of excess prof
it, taxes and reduction OF the in
come surfaces.
Second-Repeal of some features
Of the transportation act.
Third-Increase of the tax on the
nee incomes of corporations from 10
to Is per cent and repeal of the ex-
eniption on incomes of $4,000.
Government officials will be CON-
peIred TO eliminate all unnecessary
expenses. and Implications of Job
holders in bureaus will be abolished
rs far as possible.
People Demand Cut
Republican Congressional leaders
believe that unless reduction in
taxation and consequent reduction
in expenditures are made very
promptly there will be reaction in
the country
The electorate, they are convinc-
ed. voted the Republicans into pow
er to effect economies and these
have not yet been made in any con-
Epfcuous way.
There is said to be grunrbling in
the country against the Republican
Congress. COMPLAINT being founded
On alleged failure of the party to
show due regard to present-day con-
ditions.
