"ORPHANS OF THE STORM AT
M REX TODAY AND TUESDAY

Orphans of the Storm the. big
D: w. Griffith film Of the season,
recognized as one of the five biggest
photoplays of the year, is showing
again today and tomorrow at the Rex
theatre. In booking this show in
order to give its patrons an emporium
ity to see the best film of the day
the Rex theater has encountered a
very expensive production. However
it will be shown at popular prices
that every film fan in the city and
surrounding country may have an op-
portunity to see it. In putting the
price low on this film, the Rex feels
that it would rather show to all fans
at nominal price than to show to
part of them at the prices asked
for this show in the larger cities.
"Orphans of the Storm" is Crit
fith's biggest production to date.
The cast is one of the strongest ever
assembled for a single picture.
Again the two Gish sisters are to be
seen in the same film. Lillian and
Dorothy Gish as co-stars are support

220: CASES
MAKE NEW.
IN
D. c. COURT
Suits Filed by Commission to
Be Followed by Others at
Early Date.

Two hundred and twenty cases,
involving $4,000 in excess rents
from violation Of the Ball rent
law, have been filed in the Dis
trict Supreme Court by the Dis
trict Rent Commission. Captain

The amount represents money
charged by landlords over and above
fair rentals determined by the Dis
trict Rent Commission. This amount
must be refunded to tenants. an
equal sum going into the Federal
Treasury, as provided by the ront
law.
These cases were prepared by Mr..
Brown in the last few days before
May 22, when the old rent law be-
came ineffective. He acted at that
time, because IL was feared that the
life of the rent commission might
not be extended.
According to the new law. land
lords will be permitted to compro-
mise by adjusting their differences
with tenants. making the payment
to the Treasury only In event that
the former refuse to comply with
the rent regulations.
1t was pointed out that the ex-
penses Of the rent commission
throughout It's entire existence will
be paid through the refunds.
Other Cases Coming.
These cases are by no means all
that intend to file," said Mr..
Brown today" The commission Is
receiving information daily on ex.
cess rents. and all of these either
will be settled with the tenants or

will not press any further cases

fendants.'
