BILE loss Of congress to the Demo-
Gratis In the middle of his own term
would mean certain disaster to his
own political fortunes. The impa-
thence Of the country for action on
its legislative program has been so
pronounced that It is no exaggera-
ton to say that evidences of real
worry over the outlook are begin
ming to accumulate on every side.
Internationally Mr.. Harding will
seek to convince members OF con-
gress that their fortunes are insep-
arahly bound up with those Of the
executive in the common prahlem
OF satisfying the demands made by
the people in the last election for
. restoration Of normalcy.
Thus far the house has proved
itself more responsive to popular
feeling than the senate.
DISARMAMENT Serious Prehlen.
By slashing military, and naval
appropriations. considerable money
has been saved which Q generous
senate would otherwise have ap-
propriated. There is an under
current of sentiment, however, in
both houses that II some progress
has been made on International dis
armament, there might have been
an even greater economy. Disarm-
ament talk is no longer regarded
as the mutterings Of q few pacifists,
but is seriously Locked upon as q
matter Of dollars and cents and
taxes.
Tax Bill Il sSHeker."
But while both houses have been
struggling with the appropriation
bills-which is after all routine
mstter-nD bill has been completed
on the tariff taxation. Business
men, who had hoped to know what
the tax rate would be for next year,
have been disappointed. Many bus
inesses run their books from July
l to July 1 Of the next year. 1t
had been confidently expected that
congress would at least have
brought the tax bill to the commit
tee stage by July |, but the hill has
not getten that far, and nobody in
congress has An accurate idea of
Just What kind of a revenue meas
ura will eventually be passed.
Judging by the legislative tangies
which have arisen in handling the
tariff, there will be considerable
delay in getting the tar bill
through both houses. Many con-
tiicting interests have shown . dis
position to Wrangle about the tar
iii. but the controversies thus far
oyer the tariff are not 9 cirsum-
stance compared to the trouble
which Is anticipated in framing .
new tax bill. The chief executive
alone will be able to reconcile diff
ferences Of opinion. And he will
have to do 1t largely by executive
insistenee on compromise which
would otherwise be refused II Of
fered BY congressional leaders. In
other words, congress needs execp-
tive guidance, and Mr.. Harding has
made up his mind to I'LL the need.

FREE WORK BUREAU
WILL START OCT. |,
PRESENT INDICATION

Indications are that Richmond will
have a free employment bureau, to
be started Oct. /.
Verne Pentecost, chairman of the
free employment division of the Cham
Der of Commerce, said Wednesday
that he believed the solicitors now
canvassing for $625 with which to
finance the bureau from October to
the first of January were meeting with
success.
1t is the plan, according to Mr.. Pen
tecost, to ask the city council to ap
propriate $500 to maintain the bu
reau in Richmond during the next
year. The council makes up it's an
nual budget the first meeting night in
September. 1t is at that time thai
the matter will be considered.
The estimated cost of the bureau is
$4,000 annually. For every dollar
raised in a community to maintain
such a service, the state gives a dol
lor. Thus, if the council appropriate!
$4,000, and the state the same amount
the $4,000 will be on hand.
Providing the city council does no
appropriate the $4,000. Mr.. Pentecos

BEbE DANIELS IN 'DUCKSAN DRAKES' Diverting Comedy This Week at GaIax Theatre With
 Fine Cast

When a girl is locked up In her own apartments and she has bathed ana dressed and played around until she has exhausted every resource, can she be blamed for little harmless tele- phone filtration? Even though she does not know the man. or as in this case, tho men? The heroine of Ducks anN DrAkes" didn't think so, and 1t be- came habit. which led to some con- sequences that worried her nightly, but which make mighty diverting en- tertainment for those who watch 1t.
 Ducks and Drakes" Is the latest stellar vehicle for the dashing Bebs Daniels. It is also the attraction at tho Galax theatre this week so Bir mingham motion picture enthusiasts will be able to see 1t. Never was the vivacious Miss Daniels seen to better advantage than tho girl whe decided that married life must necessarily mean settling down. who set out to find adventure over tho telephone. It is departure, in type from tho recent successes In which Miss Dan iels has appeared. but 1t still leaves the star every opportunity for the charming artistry which Is hers. In cidentally. 1t is a role which permits A~0K WC0AAAAS oOiho WOn0otlui CObtuhCo from negligees to evening gowns. And her supporting cast Is an ex~ cellent one. Her leading man is tha, excellent actor. Jack Holt. MT Holt is scheduled for early stardom, and Birmingham knows him for his won derfui acting in the many big features in which he has appeared here dur ing the last several months. The role of the fiance in Ducks an dDrakes'' is one of the best he has had recently. The rest of the cast is made up of prominent players.
 l Ducks and Drakes" is a corking
 comedy It is the story of girl, as
 said before, who tries to have a final
 fling by telephone flirtations. She
 would pick out interesting names and
 call the numbers. It worked perfectly
 until she called up three friends oi
 her fiance. He then set out to cure
 her. and what he does is highly en- l ltertaining.

 "The Love Special" Is picturiza- tion of story by Frank spearman, but it might have been written for. Wally so naturally does 1t fit him. It is an outdoors tale of romance and ad- venture with thrills enough to satisfy the most exacting. and MT. Reid is per- feet In the role of Jim Glover, the handsome young construction engineer. Not only is MT. Reid an actor but he is also an athlete and the role given him in the Love Special calls for both.
 Not since he made the famous fea- ture, "The Valley of the Giants has the famous star had picture of this type. The role of the typical. capable young American Is one that Wally de- lights in and such a type is Jim Glover.
 Nor is the star the only famous actor in the cast. There are two others who almost lay claim to stellardom. There is Agnes Ayres who made such a striking impression here in Forbidden Fruit the big Cecil DeMille special. and Theodore Roberts, the greatest
