BERT LYTELL, IDOL
OF SCREEN COMING

Local theatregoers will be delighted
to learn that Bert Lytell, star of the
screen, will soon be seen here in his
latest picture, "a Message From
Mars" at the Kenworthy Theatre on
Thursday for a run Of two days. It
will be the feature attraction.
Bert Lytell has made screen his
tory; he is fascinating figure of the
silver sheet who once seen is never
for gotten. Brilliant-tha goes with
out saying but he also has the uni
que gift of putting different sides of
himself into his picture. Of course, his
long training in stock companies has
given him versatility which reveals
itself in every movement on the
screen and gives shading to his
acting which is unexcelled.
"A Message From Mars" was adj
apted by Arthur Zeller and Arthur
Maude from the successful stage
play by Richard Ganthoney. It is a
Maxwell Karger Production made for
Merto. The story tells of the regen-
Grafton from selfishness Of Horace
Parker, wealthy younng English
man, through the agency of messen-
ger from Mars, condemned to shadow
him until his moral cure is effected.
A series of thrilling episides brings on
the desired consummation.
The supporting cast includes Raye
Dean, Maud Milton, Alphonz Either,
Gordon Ash, Leonard Nude, Mary
Louise Beaton, Frank Currier, and
George Sphinx. Arthur Mantinelli did
the photography and M. P. Staulcup
designed and executed the art interi-
ors.

VARSITY PLAYERS
TOMORROW NIGHT
HOME PRODUCTS PLAY WILL BE
GIVEN AT UNIVERSITY OF
IDAHO THURSDAY EVE.

Genesee and Deary are much pleas
ed at the vivacity and sparkle of the
Varsity Players first offering, Her
Husbands Wife," No more elabor-
ately gowned and charmingly set
play has ever been seen in these
towns. The cast left by stage from
Genesee for the Lewiston perform
ance tonight in the Temple Theatre.
The whole cast came in for many
compliments on their work, thus prov
ing the directors contention of "a
perfectly balanced cast" The shrewd
and dry drollery of Tometz, so sue
cessful in Clarence" is most effect
i've in this new play; Bedwell presents
the most amusing stupid darkey
which play can offer; KimmePs
experience as reader for the Glee
Club stands him in good stead in
straight part which calls chiefly for
attractive stage presence and a good
voice; Mr.. Cushman, with his wide
experience in the East and in some
twenty different Drama Club plays,
runs easily and naturally a wide
range of emotions in this play from
deepest gloom to hilarity and back
again. Miss Eggan blossoms con-
vincingly overnight from a drab and
dowdy "litt1e sparrow" to a most en-
ticing spit-fire. And Miss Mcdaniel,
as the hypochondriac (whatever that
may mean), contributes that most
trying of human beings-a weeping
wife-with skill and sure touch Of
comedy.
Moscow will see this most delight
full of summer plays at the Univer-
sity Auditorium on Thursday even
ing.

CONGRESSMAN FRENCH AGAINST
LARGE NAVAL APPROPRIATIONS

Washington, D. C.-(SpeciaD- y
"You may say that l am opposed t.
the amendments of the senate to thu
naval appropriations bill adding more
than 136 million dollars to the bill
over what the measure contained
when it passed the House
This was the statement of Con.
gressman French, who was appointed
today by the speaker as one of the
conferees on the part of the house tc
work out the tangle between the SEN
ate and house on the naval appropria-
tion items. Mr.. French is member
OF the naval Subcommittee of the
appropriations committee of the
house. and is deeply interested in the
questions involved.
We scaled down estimates of the
navy department. nearly 300 millions
of dollars in preparing the bill. Even
so, we had to include in the bill large
sums that we did not want to include
but felt that as a business proposition
it was necessary. / believe that we
went as far as prudence and good
business judgment demand at a time
when the burden of government ex-
penses is SO enormous.
"We talk about economy, but the
only way to attain economy is by re-
fusing to appropriate.
"The taxes for the year just ended
aggregate approximately five billion
dollars. For the coming year, we
must crowd them under this figure.
II believe that the House conferees
on the Naval Appropriations bill
should make every effort to prevent
the acceptance Of substantially every
item of increase added to the bill by
the Senate"
Representative Addison T. Smith
today reported to the House of Rep
resentatives on behalf of the public
lands committee the bill of Congress
man French providing for the ex-
change of privately lands with
in the general area or adjacent to the
Clearwater, Saint Joe and Selway
National Forests for other lands in
Idaho that are unreserved and nom
irrigable in character.
The exchanges provided in the bill
are to be upon the basis of values and
not acreage. Further, the lands that
will be received by the government in
the exchange will reserve for the gov
ernment all coal, oil and other mineral

deposits.
Mr.. French says that the passage
! of the bill is most desirable from the
standpoint of the government, on the
one hand, and the settlers and private
owners of land, upon the other.
ANY one who will notice the bound
ary lines of the forest reserves in
question will observe how serrated
their edges are where they adjoin the
lands that have passed to private
ownership. Prior to the creation of
the reserves, many settlers had ac-
quired lands on the assumption that
some day they would have neighbors
and that in the communities where
they had established their homes.
there would be schools, churches,
roads and towns. They now find
themselves hemmed in by forest re-
serves with the burden of expense for
schools, roads, ETC., SO great by rea-
son of the limited number of settlers
that they would be benefited if they
could exchange the lands for lands
of equal value nearer open settle
ments. Likewise, other privately
owned lands could be better handled
by the owners if it it were in com
pact form outside of the general for
est reserve areas. All of these lands
would increase in value and the state
of Idaho and counties involved would
receive something of an advantage by
increased tax values
"On the other hand, the government
would benefit because it could admin
lister the forest reserves more salts
factorily in compact form than when
ragged edges must be looked after.
Revenues, also, would be larger es-
pecially from grazing lands"
Mr.. French says that it is one of
those cases where both parties in the
trade would be benefited, and the
bill has the support of the committee
on public lands and the departments
of the interior and of agriculture.
The house committee on public
lands today reported favorably the
bill of Representative Burton L.,
French which permits the selection of
non-irrigible government
land not privately owned lands with
cultural crops except grass in ex-
change for privately owed lands with
in the Clearwater, Saint Joe and Sell
way national forests. The measure
will now be placed on the calendar of
the house.

| TEACHERS UNIONS
Senator Says, With Bruce
Case, This Is Source of Dis
turbance in Schools.

There are two sources of disturb
ing elements in the District public
school system. which must be re-
moved to insure peace and harmony,
Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi
told members of the Mems Club of
| the Mount Pleasant Congregational
Church at meeting last night in the
edlnce. These he described as the so
called Bruce case and the teachers
,, unions that are affiliated with outside
organizations, such as the American
Federation of Labor
senator Harrison indicated that he
had told Supt. Frank w. Ballou that
Assistant Supt. Roscoe G. Bruce
should be removed from office. and
that the teachers unions should be
FORCED to sever their relations with
the American Federation of Labor
Neither of these two things has
been done yet" he said IF. in the
passing of months, there should arise
cliques and clans. shall raise my
voice"

Assistant Supt. Bruce was severely
criticised by Senator Harrison. for
participating in a recent meeting of
the School Welfare League. when the
colored school official attacked and
answered his critics in the Parents
League The board of educa ton -
he declared; would do splendid
service to say to Bruce no matter
how efficient and qualified an edu-
Gator you are, you get out and we
viii get some one to take your place
such action would be in the interest
OF the common good. For where
there is so much smoke there is
bound to be some fire"
Referring to the teachers union

the idea of teachers organizing them
| selves INTO union is horror and
| should not exist. Teachers" he said

cation of the school system by a select
