CAPITOL

Based on an original story detail- ing the madness of pleasure seeking ancient Rome and modern New 1ork, .'Madonnas and Men," is at the Capl- tol for the first half of the week. Inc pcture tells of how a Roman em- peror treated women, and then IL shows the attitude of certain mli- nonaire rounders of New York toward women they encounter at root gardens in the dressing rooms or midnight shows and in their own hectic homes.
 Kiss Me" opens a three-day en- gagement today and this big Naude- vile musical revue is sure to delight those who like dash and color, for this company of fifteen embraces a glorous amount of talent, and the girls are magnificently costumed. Way Dalton and Jane Craig are superlative in their singing and dancing, the Herberts do comedy gymnastics with rer1na rka ble rapidity, Judson Cole is a clever conjuring comedian and Bren- nan and Rule are singing a number of their song successes. such as Have a Smile"

 But several times during the course of '"The Kid" this comedian made us swallow a lump in our throats and wipe real tears of sympathy from our eyes by the pathos of his actlns' and before our handkerchief was back in our pocket it was needed again to dry our cheeks of the tears caused by the shrieks or laughter from the antics of the same actor.

 Pretty Baby" has all the elements that you most enjoy, with no plot to tax your mind.
 Ben Loring, Frank Wheeler, Arthur Brooks, Dolly Clifford, Alice Melvin and Helen Bernard are the princi- pals, and besides their entertaining, you have the dashing, singing and dancing chorus to support them.
 Fatty" Arbuckle, the round comedian who has made millions laugh at him, is now at the Lyceum with his great laughing hit, Brew ster's Millions" from the immensely popular novel of the same name by George Barr McCutcheon, and from the play by Winchell Smith of Farm ington.
 The story is one of pure comedy romance. It has been added to highly, in the screen version, by the inclusion of q number of incidents that appear in neither the novel or the play. with the result that the production has 8 far greater comedy value. These. additions are of such a character that only one living comedian can make the whole pic ture successful-"Fatty'' Arbuckle.

Responsibility for more than so
per cent. of the waste in Industrial
processes, which is causing enor-
nous annual losses to the nation,
can be placed at the door of the
management and less than 25 per
cent. at the door of labor, declares
a report of the American Engineer
ing Councils Committee on Elimi-
nation of Waste in Industry. The
Committee was appointed by Her
bert Hoover, Secretary of Com
merce, when he was head of the
Council.
Declaring that the annual eco
nomic loss in the country through
preventable diseases and death
amounted to $3,0O0,00O,00O, the
report urged a more general use OF
safety methods already perfected.
1t was asserted that rs per cent. OF
the deaths and serious accidents in
industry could be thus prevented
A national policy regarding public
health should be fostered and en-
couraged; the national program for
industrial rehabilitation should be
encouraged and offer opportunities
for education and placement tc
those having physical defects as
we'll as those handicapped because
of industrial accidents; a nation
wide program of industrial stand
ardization should be encouraged in
conjunction with industrial inter
ests.

THE CHANGE IN COMMISSIONER
SHIP.

The National Education Associ-
alton, according to it's Secretary, j.
w. Crabtree, has in it's Journal for
June the following editorial con-
corning the change in the Commits
sionership of Education:
Out of a clear sky after the
Journal has gone to press comes the
announcement of the dismissal of
DR.. Claxton as Commissioner of
Education and the appointment of
Mr.. ]. ]. Tigert in his place. This
action will be deplored by the
friends of public education through
out the Nation. 1t is not necessary
to discuss the long and faithful SER
vice of DR.. ClaxtOn, whose work has
had the, approval of two successive
presidents of opposite political faith,
nor is it necessary to review the
little-known record and untried
leadership of the man who has been
named for his place. 1t is most un-
fortunate a change should be made
at this time when the need for rec
ognized national leadership, in edu-
cation is imperative. 1t is certain
to be construed by the public as hav-
ing been determined by political
motives and in total disregard of
the growing demand for the eleva-
tion of the Nations chief educa-
tional Office.

Secretaries Hoover and Wallace
have asked representatives of varl-
Gus farm organizations, grain eleva-
tors and dealers, insurance COM
panies and other associations inter-
ested to attend conference IN
Washington June Is to consider a
plan for improving grain storage
methods.
1t is proposed, the department ex-
planned, to provide a method by
which farmers could be given un-
limited storage facilities for grain
and receive warehouse certificates
that could be used as an order. for
the delivery of the grain.
If such a plan can be made prac-
ticable, the Department asserted, 1t
would greatly increase the farmers
borrowing power and relieve him OF
the pressure of selling his grain ex-
cept at his own option. 1t was con-
tended the farmer would be enabled
to haul grain at the time of greatest
farm economy without being com
PEELED to sell at that time.

Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOClATlON

AS the first step in promoting
greater coordination, efficiency and
economy in the State Government,
Governor Richie, of Maryland, has
had study made of the various
State Departments, and as a result
a plan of proposed departmental re-
organization has been submitted to
him. This plan follows, in general,
the line of departmental reorganiza-
ton which has been adopted with
such successful results in Illinois,
Massachusetts, Nebraska, Idaho,
Ohio, Washington and other States
and which is now under considera-
ton in still others, including New
York and California.
The Governor is now appointing a
commission of representative Mary
land men to study this proposed
plan, suggest such changes or modl-
fications in it as they deem advis-
able, and then recommend to him
the plan which in their judgment is
most suitable for submission to the
General Assembly of Maryland OF
1922.

THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSCClATION
THRIFTLESS MARYLAND.

In the year 1906, the State of
Maryland transferred title to an
island in the Patapsco river at Bal
timore to a private individual for
the sum of SIS. The following
year two other islands nearby were
sold for $35 each to two other indi-
viduals. These islands are merely
banks of mud. The purchasers
made no other use of them than to
sell them later for several hundred
dollars profit. The new purchasers
have also made no use of the is
lands, but this year, IA years after
the original sale of the first island,
the city of Baltimore, believing the
islands essential to plan of port
development, took an option on all
three, and the price agreed upon
was $215,0OO. OF this sum $685.
900 was for the first island and
100000 for the other two. In other
words, when the State parted title
with these islands it conferred the
power on private parties to levy
upon the earnings of the people Of
Baltimore to the extent of $215,-
900 in fourteen years. In this there
is inexcusable prodigality in every
transfer of publicly owned land to
private individuals. There is in
excusable prodigality every day that
state or nation continues to permit
private appropriation of communal
values. This is the kind of ex-
travagance which is keeping the
great, bulk of the American people
in poverty.
