 Take Gladys Walton. for instance, Her latest picture is Desperate Youth In that she is child of the south ytransplanted to the wild and woolly west, wherever that is. Her father is shot and she returns to the south to live with her aunt.
 The aunt thinks she's too good looking for the matrimonial safety of her own daughter, so quarters her with the servants. Through the serv- ants she meets the richest and most eligible catch in town
 Of course, you can picture the fade out, but just think how chagrined sunty felt.
 The picture Is adapted from F. Hop kinson Smiths "A Kentucky Cinder. ella.'''

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. S. Industrial recovery has started now that eastern banks are competing again with surplus funds, Benjamin Strong, governor of the New York Federal Reserve bank, said today be- fore a congressional commission in vestigating credit control.
 He blamed past imitation on the war and said it was necessary to fi- nance the world conflict but denied there had been any discrimination against agricultural interests at any time. Expansion to stimulate pro duction was necessary if the war could not be financed out of the peoples savings, he said.

CHICAGO, Aug. 8. - The fancy silk shirt, sporty sox and loud ex- pensive cravats are doomed to give way to cotton, lisle and plain kitted goods because men are slicing their clothing bills, haberdashers today told the board of review when ques- tioned about their personal property taxes.
 Most dealers say the value of their stock is decreasing because the public is demanding a cheaper grade of goods" said a member of the board. Instead of silk shirts the public is buying cotton ones, plain soX are sought in preference to fancy ones. One haberdashery reports a shrinkage of stock from $25,000 to $5,0OO in less than year."

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. B. The Willis-Campbell anti-beer bill
 was passed by the senate late today,
 39 to 20, and sent to conference with the house with the prospect of it's
 final enactment before the weeks end.
 Upon being informed of the action, Treasury officials said the beer regu- lations which have been drafted and are ready for Secretary Mellon's sig nature would not be issued pending action by the senate and house con ferees. The regulations would pro vide for use of medical beer under the ruling of Former Attorney Gen erai Palmer, ruling which the' bill IS designed to overcome
 The ban against the prescribing of beer by physicians and limitation of prescriptions of wine and whiskey contained in the bill as passed by the house were virtually unchanged by the senate but a few important were added. These in cluded a provision to restrict opera tions of prohibition enforcement of ficers by prohibiting searchers of any attempt at searching of private prop ertN or premises without search war rants. A violation of this clause would be a misdemeanor subject to fine of $l,000 and one years impris- onment. Penalties of five years inn orisonment and $1,00O fine were pro- 5ided for persons attempting searches while posing as prohibition agents.
