Moll,e Williams, Greatest Show

Why is Mollie Williams always
able to secure the prettiest and class
lest chorus for her shows? That
question is asked continually and II
will be asked again text Monday
when the Mollie williams Greatest
Show will be seen at the Majestic
theatre, matinee and night.
Yes, there's a real reason why Miss
Williams succeeds in getting the
drop on the other producers. picking
the peaches and leaving some of the
other producers to select lemons
The fact is that the chorus girls are
strong for Miss Williams, and II
isn't because she is the only woman
producer in ~burlesque or because she
is a great star. 1t isn't because OF
anything that she Is today, but OF
what she used to be, for Mollie WILL
Jams was once a chorus girl.
Some stars try to blot that page
out of their history, but Mollie Will
Jams isn't that sort. She Is willing
to have the whole world know that
she was a chorus girl once and that
she came out of the ranks only when
her superior talent had been recog-
nized. But the chorus girls just love
her because they can feel that she
was once one of them.
A chorus girl likes to obtain a
place in a Mollle Williams show be-
cause they know that Miss Williams
trials and tribulations. she knows
how much 1t is reasonable to expect
of them and what Is unreasonable.

cooperation with the stockman,
former Lieutenant Governor B. i.
Pankey brought words of cheer 10
the delegates of the seventh annual
convention of the New Mexico
Cattle and Horse Growers associa-

opened yesterdays session. "Af-
fairs are so mixed up that I can't
tell about the present." Mr.. Pankey
exclaimed, but / do know that If
we sit tight and do our best to CO.
operate with each other, the future
is going to take care of us in good
shape"
In urging the bankers to continue
their support to the industry, Mr..
Pankey said: you can break the
cattleman over and over again, but
if you give him a chance he will
always come out all right. l con-
slider loans to cattlemen the best

CUBAN ELECTION
ROW TO BE LAID
BEFORE HUGHES
Gen. Gomez Says He Has
Been Kept Out of the
Presidency BY Fraud;
CrOWder Is Praised.

Washington, March 30 - jose
| Miguel Gomez, defeated liberal par
| ty candidate for the Cuban prcsi-
dency, was here today to appeal to
the state department for establish
ment of a provisional government,
! in the islands under an American
chief executive, if necessary to su-
pervise new elections.
He has prepared a protest against
the conduct of the recent Cuban
elections to be filed with Secretary
Hughes, if he will receive it.
General Gomez explained to the
Associated Press that the protest
charges he has been kept out of
the presidency by fraud and intim-
idation.
He was convinced, he declared,
of the sincerity of Major General
Enoch II. Crowder, sent to Cuba
by President Wilson as an official
adviser before the elections, but
insisted that the American officer
had failed to obtain for the liberals
the freedom in the exercise of the
franchise which the United States
government had declared indispen-
sable.
fhe Cuban electoral college will
soon register the vote preparatory
to the charge of administration in
May. Liberals refused to vote in
the special elections in certain
provinces, General Gomez said, as
they knew their participation
would be useless owing to "a mill
tary conspiracy to place Alfredo
Zayas in the presidency"
The protest of the liberals in
cudes the charge that the elections
were fraudulent, that they did not
indicate the will of the majority
and that an unrestricted vote would
result in the election OF Gomez.
