WILL ROGERS IS CAST AS A LOVABLE HERO-HOBO
Gaum ingles With

Will Rogers is becoming as much a
natural humOrist on the screen as the
late Mark Twin was in his most popular
days in the realm of fiction.
While reviewing AN Unwilling Hero"
a movie adoption of sone of o. Henry &
sortes, it was evident that Rogers has
successfully graduated from the Follies
to the position of one Of the cleanest and
most human of comedians on the screen
today.
Rogers has such natural, wholesome,
sincere and everyday way about him,
which grabs your attention the second
that Rogers begins his journey as an
unwilling hero" In this picture he Is
hero hobo, not a hobo*hero, because
VIII is a hobo with the heart of a phil-
osopher beating under his unkept shirt.
Rogers knows how to apply the human
touches to all of his characterizations.
The human value of the latest Rogers
movie cannot be over emphasized.
Rogers has gone to the rich tield of the
late o. Henry's imagination as 4 screen
vehicle. o. Henry's story and the nat
ural, quiet and quaint acting Of Rogers
make a marvellous combination.
You see Rogers as lovable hobo pick
ing his way through the crowds st pub

ton Of New Orleans. VIII has to live oy

American public quite a while to realize

GERMAN MAKERS
OF DYE DECLARE
WAR ON AMERICA
Declare They Are Going to
Get Business Back
g Again.
FACTORIES ARE BUSY

Special TO Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-War upon
the United States has been declared by
tie German dye industry, according to
Dr. Charles H Hertey, member of the
national research council and adviser to
the chemical warfare service. He has
just returned from Europe and reports
that Germany is increasing tremendously
the capital of her dye plants, where
poison war gases were made and is
doubling the capitalization of her ex-
plosive plants.
DR.. Hertey says one of the men con-
trolling the German dyes industry, Di-
rector Kreu Of Ludwigshafen- on r hine,
said to him: I'VE are going to get back
our business in your country and we are
going to get it back through our agents. "
There is the clearest declaration that
the war is on In this matter have heard
yet" said DR.. Hertey.
Not only has Great Britain a dye Ii
esnsing law" he continued, but while
I was Ia Paris the French chamber Of
deputies and the French senate passed
q new :arif on chemicals and it included
a license system against German dyes,
and they passed it by a unanimous vote
in the chamber of deputies and only one
dissenting vote In the senate.
cit was amazing to me, to tell you
the truth, 1t came too easy. I did not
like it. 1 like the kind OF contest we
have been having here to get this dye
business established. The people of this
country are being educated by the kind
Of discussion we are now having. The
knowledge is going around among the
masses of the people. The French
ministry may be changed and that law
upset, Lut here when the American people
understand this question, the Congress
representing the American people, is go
ing to continue TO carry 0Ct their wishes.
Through the peace treaty Germany's
hands are tied as far as the usual
methods of making war are concerned
battleships, aircraft, submarines, forts,
but her means for making poison gases
are not touched in the slightest. All her
plants for that purpose are untouched
"I think for the best thing for the
future peace of this world IS that this
country should be not simply SIS strong
as, but stronger than Germany in Its
dye industry and with its general
chemical industry. Also a chemical war
fare service maintained as a separate unit
Of our Army and given every opportunity
to develop to the very utmost that
branch Of modern warfare which every
man I have talked with believes is to be
the future means of making warfare -
