"THE GREEN TEMPTATION. STARS BETTY CoMPsON

It is no longer necessary to refer to "The Miracle Man" nor any other achievements of Betty Compson's in order to establish this stars identity, Miss Compson's many screen transi- tions have placed her foremost among dramatic performers of the screen.
 The Green Temptation" showing this week at the Strand, stars this little cinema artist in a very unusual role. Her rendition of three separate characterizations of widely diversi- fled roles is exceptionally good She first takes the part of "Genele,' ad- ventureous little French apache, la ter as Carolyn, dancer and the toast of Paris" and lastly as Jeane Paget, nurse, bearing the red cross of mercy. In each part she appears to advant- age. The various locales carry one through the underground haunts of Paris, where the true life of the underworld is depicted.
 The story is that of the regenera- ton of 'Genele," notorious female crook of Europe, Circumstances force her into Red Cross service. As a nurse Genelle Is brought face to face with suffering humanity and gradually forgets herself in her ser vice. In this way her complete re- generation Is brought about.
 Mahlon Hamilton plays opposite Miss Compson.

ANOTHER CHAPTER IN COMMISSION
 FIGHT WRITTEN
Patterson Charges Other Members of Board Seek to Get Credit For Rate
 Reduction

Montgomery. June Especial. )- Another chapter in the controversy between President A. G. Patterson on the one sice and the Associate Com missioners ;. P. Gaillard and B. H. Cooper, on the other, was written today when President Patterson is- sued a statement in which he said the associate commissioners were at tempting to make it appear they were responsible for the reduction of 10 per cent in the rates on the intrastate traffic. when in fact the railroad agreed to put the rates into effect on intrastate traffic as soon as they accepted the same reduction in interstate rates.
 After referring to the order of the associate commissioners which he said, was rushed into the newspa- pers before it had been considered by the commission, Mir. Patterson said: Shortly after the famous or der of the two associate commission CTS was issued, all the Alabama rail- roads through one representative ap- piled to the Alabama commission for permission to make the same 10 per cent reductions apply in Alabama. All the commission had to do was to BlN6 US dSStHls
 Did Not Seek Publicity
 MT. Patterson said he and Attor- ney General Harwell G. Davis ap- peared before the interstate conn merce commission in the investiga- tion which preceded the order for reduction in interstate rates, but neither of us have sought to have ourselves played up in the press for doing our official duty"
 T repeat, 1t Is rediculous and dis gusttng to note the efforts of the two associate commi ssioners to have themselves played up in the preF as great rate reducers' when the facts show they did not do one thing to aid in the accomplishing the result for which they take all the credit" con- cluded the statement. "The public. of course. understands the purpose of all this rotten and false propaganda at this time and will not be misled thereby. I believe the pubic should know the facts and l shall from time to time continue to give the public the facts regarding the situation as it exists relative to the public ser vice commission"

Th0uBh the people or the Unlteu
 States commit many sins and errors in diet that affects our health and longevity records, I believe that we eat more rationally than do the in- habitants of any other country. Partly for that reason the Americans are the most efficient people In the world. We are surely the most prosperous people but one of the dangers of prosperity is the overin- dulgence of our perverted appetites. Health authorities should therefore teach the people that those who violate the laws of nutrition surely will be punished by sickness and death; and that the sin of ignorance regarding the d!etetic needs of the body will be visited upon the coming generations"
