TRADE REVIVAL
Seen BY HAYS
Says Revenues Increased
First Time Since He Took
Office
CABINET GETS
GOOD REPORTS

WASHINGTON. Sept 1o.-Ad-
ministration officials are greatly
cheered over informal reports re-
ceived by the cabinet indicating a
marked business revival
Postmaster-General Hays report
ed to the cabinet yesterday that in
August the postal business of the
country and postal receipts increas-
ed for the nrst time since he took
Office.
The postal business is regarded as
the greatest and most authentic
business barometer. A slowing In
the mails always presages a dul
business season. For many months
postal receipts and the amount OF
post Office business have been below
normal
In addition the cabinet received
informal reports from Secretary
Hoover and others that showed an
Improved cotton and grain situation,
and a slow but consistent recovery
in manufacturing. wholesale and re-
tail business.
Omcial Washington regards It as
odd in some respects that the live
stock industry growers still suffer
from depression and falling prices.
although the Federal government
was more liberal in financial and
other aid for the livestock growers
than for any other class.
Reports to the Interstate Com
merce Commission show an increas-
ed freight movement and gain In
railroad earnings.
This situation is regarded as be-
ing helpful in the solution OF the un-
employment problem. which was
discussed at the cabinet meeting.
Representation at the unemploy-
ment conference, soon to be held
will be on geographic rather than
an industrial or group basis.
Mr.. Hoover conferred with Secre-
tary OF Labor Davis and they agreed
that labor should be adequately rep.
resented in the gathering, number.
ing about thirty representative mer
from various fields of Industrial en-.
deavor. It was said that their meet
ing brought the date OF the comini
conference closer Fun plans ar,

ment will be concluded this eve
ming.
"The Whistle" IS a romance of
American industrial life, woven
around one mans life and his des-
perate struggles in the world. The
situations are those that have oc-
CURED before in sections where fac
tories thrive. Mr.. Hart's portrayal
Of the leading role is one OF the best
things he has done TO date.
Myrtle Stedman is the feminine
lead in the picture.
On Monday next Tom Mix viii

star. Mix is quickly establishing
himself as a favorite at the Queen
and his playing at the theatre means
a lot OF satisfaction to many people
here in town. The new film is call
ed After Your Own Heart" It is
a Western romance. Where would
Mix be without his West? It is a
modern tale. The cowboys on the
ranch ride high-powered cars in
stead Of horses and the ranch owner
rides in an airplane. Modern inven-
lions have touched the far West and
they provided a lot of amusement
and variety in this picture.
Mix has the role of a college
bred rancher who lives the life OF
excitement and thrills and also has a
little romance all his own.
