PROTESTS VALUATION
PLAN In NEW BILL

Observation-Disclosures against
an American valuation plan in the pro-
posed permanent" tariff bill. ii. T..
Miles, Of Racine, Wis, chairman Of
the fair tariff league, told the SEN
ate finance committee today that this
proposal was simply a camouflage
and would offer no remedy what
ever against importations from Ger
many, which alone disturbs u.s."
Pointing TO what he said was the
the need OF a deprecated currency
clause" in the bill. Mr.. Miles said
this would "end in moment the en-.
tire element of legalized under.valua.
tions and remove the cause for nine

THEATRES
At the Majestic

William Frederick Cody! That
name may not mean anything to
many people, but when the name
Buffalo Bill is heard, the world sits
UP and takes notice. The name
figures prominently in the Universal
chapter play, "In the Days Of Buff
falo Bill" which is now showing at
the Majestic.
At the beginning of the Civil War
Bill Cody. as he was then called,
was a government scout and guide
and one of the most popular men
of the frontier.
After the building of the Union
Pacific railroad passed from the
certainty and actual work began,
the vital problem of food for the
builders presented itself. The peo-
pie of the country were raising just
enough food for their own con-
sumption. Hundreds of husky work
men meant that a great increase in
the food supply must be provided.
The question was, who was going to
provide that food.
Bill Cody became a meatman de-
luxe. He proceeded to hunt ,buffa-
loes and in due time formed a COM
petent band of hunters which ac-
companied him on his professional
hunts.
Duke Lee, who for seven years
was a trick rider and roper with
Buffalo Bills Wild West Show and
who was one of the famous mans
best friends. is playing the role of
Cody in the educational serial and
it is doubtful If an actor better quail
flied for the part could have been
found. -
Edward Laemmle directed. Rob-
ert Dillon wrote the story and con-
tinuity from history.
1t is the type OF. picture that will
appeal to every member of the
family. Mother will enjoy the love
theme. father will glory in living
over again the stirring days he used
to read about in the "yellow-backs"
and the children will find thrill
after thrill to entertain them. with
all receiving a liberal education in
the history of their country during
the hectic days that marked the era
OF Buffalo Bill. Manager w. s.
Counihan of the Majestic theatre is
to be congratulated on presenting
this picture.
