FEAST LYNNE. AT FIVE
 POINTS VHEATRE T,OnAY

Hugo Ballin's screen revival of Fast Lynne" which will be seen here at the Five Points theatre to- day, tempts theatregoers to interro- gate stage historians and to browse through old playbills and records. For Mrs. Henry Woods melodrama has too long been a literary and theatrical tradition not to have had an interesting history.
 A play in which ladies have rev eIed lachrymally not for years, but for generations not only in the language of the original, but in vir- tually every tongue-such a crea- tion must necessarily have enlisted the talents of many artists and must at the same time have been witnessed under unusual circumstances.

mails OF American legislation. The sub
stantial effects of this legislative pro-
gram are now apparent on every hand.
Notwithstanding the Republican
Congress elected in 1918 and assem-
bled in special session in 1919 had
appropriated hundreds of millions for
ex-service men, the administration Of
these funds by the various executive
agencies controlled by the Democrats
had been such that the ex-seryice men
had recsived minimum of benefit
from the funds. A large part of this
was due to lack of coordination and
cooperation of the various bureaus
One of the greatest pieces of construc-
tive legislation of the Republican Con-
gress was the consolidation of the va
rious agencies dealing with the ex-
service man under the one head of the
Veterans Bureau. This assures expe-
dition as well as fair and adequate
treatment of our disabled ex-service
men. 81 = .a..- -, a.. "a -
In addition to this consolidation and
reorganization additional millions were
appropriated for tie use of the Bu-

Republican Administration Pro-
gram of Construction
Being Fulfilled
Congress Is In d ustrious
Record of Accomplishments Not
Excelled in Annals of
Legislation
(By Rep. Simeon D. Fess (Ohio),
Chairman Republican Con-
gressienal Committee.)

The World War bequeathed to the
United States, in common with every
other nation gigantic debts, tremendous
expenditures, burdensome taxes. dis.
5ointed economic conditions and gen.
eral unrest. No previous administra-
ton since the establishment of our
Government came into power with
greater domestic problems demanding
solution at its hands than confronted
the Republican administration on
March A, 1921.
Immediately upon the Inauguration
OF the President and his call of the
special session of the Congress a pro.
gram of rehabilitation was outlined
and work Immediately commenced to
oonsummate it. Undesirable immigra-
ton was flooding the country This in
creased unemployment, rendered more
difficult a solution OF our industrial
problems, while the character of many
of the immigrants was a menace to
our social and political institutions. To
protect American labor and American
institutions against this invasion a law
was enacted limiting further immigra-
ton to but three per cent. of the ma
tionals already in America
The first necessary step toward eco
nomic readjustment was necessarily
reduction Of expenses and balancing of
the budget. One of the earliest meas.
ures enacted by the Republican Con.
gress was the budget law. The pre-
Vious Republican Congress had en-
acted a budget law, but it was vetoed
by President Wilson. The law went
into effect July /, 1921, in time to apply
to the fiscal year beginning on the
same date. Whatever economies have
been effected by reason of the Budget
Bureau since that time are to be cred
tied to the early action of the Repub-
lican Congress in putting the law on
the books which created the Budget
Bureau and made its operation pos
sibie.
The agricultural industry Of the
country was suffering in a degree
which has never been equalled in its
history. This important industry,
which directly affects one-third of our
population and indirectly affects every
Industrial, commercial and financial
activity. was facing bankruptcy. In
order to assist the farmer in this
period of economic distress the Re
publican Congress enacted an elab-
crate program Of agricultural rehabil-
ts'ion. This program of constructive

Other Very Important Planks


The Herald does. not agree wifi
Mr.. Fleetwood's position on the Vol
stead act, but let us see what else we
are interested in. A well-known de.
mocratic leader enumerated some OF
them in a proposal to his constituents
the other day:
Repeal of the tariff act;
Renewal of the soldier-bonus fight;
No ship subsidy;
Restoration of nuisance taxes:
Some form of the League of Ma
tions.
1t is also true that the Democrats
were prime leaders in the recent Will
sonian plan to turn the government
over largely to paternal and social
istic enterprises, with hungry demo-
Gratis in charge of hundreds of benefi-
cent bureaus, the principal purpose
of which was to provide said hungry
democrats with jobs.
The return of government to fun
damental principles is certainly an
issue and Mr.. Fleetwood is certainly
entitled to the benefit of his position
and opinions thereon. Just as it ap-
pears to The Herald as dishonest and
futile to close ones eyes to other
patent political facts, it also appears
only fair to note that the next Con-
gress, which is almost certain to
show a gain Of democratic members,
must face and deal with other prob
lens. Of fully as much importance to
the people as the enforcement of the
eighteenth amendment. - Rutland
