Notable Supporting Cast for New
Conway TcarIe Producton-Pror,
inent Players Will Be Seen in
"Shadows Of the Sea"

When the new Conway Tearle fea-
ture. Shadows Of the Sea" begins a
one day engagement, at the Strand
theatre today, local patrons of the
screen will see one Of the most per-
fectly and impressively cast pictures
ever produced. Shadows of the Sea"
is a Selnck Picture which was pro-
duced under the direction OF Alan
Crosland. Frank Darcy wrote the
story.
In addition to the cast of prin-
cipals appearing in support of the
star. there has been assembled one
OF the most remarka BILE collections
of marine types" ever seen in a
motion picture. including practically
everything from the jolly young tar"
to the sodden old salt" Some idea
of care which has been exercised in
the selection of the people to play
parts in the picture is indicated by
the fact that frankie Mann, whose
stage career in practically every
branch of the amusement profession
has made her name known in practic-
ALL every town and hamlet in the
country, appears in one Of the minor
roles.
Shadows Of the Sea" is a maritime
adventure story replete with thrills
and love interest. Lovely Doris Ken
yon. herself a star of the screen, plays
the leading feminine role, and Jack
Drummer, as "Shivering Sam" is re-
eponsible for one of the best derelict

vestigation into the murder of Jesse
y. Hurst, wealthy merchant, of Pars-
lev, Accomac county, who was found
at the back steps of his store in an
unconscious condition on the morning
of September 80, came TO an end
Saturday, when it became known
that Mrs. Mark W. Sissler had made
a statement in which she accused her
husband with having struck the blow
that caused Hurst's death.
Mrs. Sissler, who had declared
from the first that she knew nothing
about the killing Of Hurst, mas been
under constant questioning at Acco-
mae for the last three days. The
statement which she made is to the
effect that Hurst and her husband
had a dispute over a settlement for
moonshine whiskey which Sissler had
made mad Hurst had sold, amounting
TO around $1,000. As a result, she
says, Sissler struck Hurst on the
head with the iron boxing Of the hub
of q cart wheel, knocking him sense
less. The bloody piece Of iron was
found when bloodhounds We're Sc
cured to trace the murderer. Hurst
died three days later in Salisbury
Hospital without making state

Elected majorities of the "La Fol

narrow margin.
John K. Commons, professor OF eco
Monies at the University OF Wisconsin
author of several ecomROmics texts
and author OF the Wisconsin compen-
sation act, drew up the proposed
measure.
The bill provides that any working
man VINO has worked for six months

aach work day during a period not to
exceed t3 weeks. Public employment
offices will be maintained and at any

WISCONSIN TO SEEK INSURANCE
AGAINST LABOR UNEMPLOYMENT

come from insurance policies which
each emnlover will be compelled to
take out against the unemployment
of his force, in the same way as en-
ployers in Wisconsin and many other
states are compelled to insure their
c,nployes agains. accidents.
The insurance will be underwent
ten bv = mutua, insurance company
provided it is to be formed by the
EMPLOYERS. This feature of the bill
was said to have been responsible for
its defeat through the efforts of the
insurance lobby at the 1921 session.
Under this provision, as the unem-
ployment decreases, the premiums
grow smaller at once.
The entire measure IS based on Pro
lessor Commons theory that unem-
ployment is preventable. In this re-
spect it is different from the unem-
oloyment measures in Great Britain,
Belgium, Switzerland and Italy which
are based on the theory that unem-
pioyment is an inevitable evil. The
European measures. Commons says,
are merely a form of charity for the
workingman. The American Assocla-
ton Of Manufacturers, whose mem
bers employ a large percentage of
the labor Of the United States, con-
cede that unemployment IS prevent
able, Commons says.
The bill is one of the first insurance
measures to be supported by the Wis
consin federation of labor.

Calling in the association of flag
