1921 Road Projects
Enough to Cirdl Earth

Eleven thousand nine hundred and
constructed under the joint super
vision Of the Federal government and
the states during 1921. according to
reports of the Bureau Of Public Roads
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Federal money amount
ing to s94 4,057,0 ,089 was allotted to
these roads, the total cost Of which
was 1921 ,963 ,682. In this mileage
there is included 8,595 miles in pro-
jects wholly completed and the equiv
alent Of 1885 miles Of work done on
projects which are not wholly COM
pleted. Every state shared in the
benefits Of this work.
The projects under way during the
year amounted to 81 ,228 miles, which
was about one-half Of all the road
work carried on in the United States
magnitude of the road work done un-
der the supervision Of the Department
of Agriculture last year may be gain
ed when it is understood that the to-
tai mileage is considerably more than
enough to encircle the earth, that it is
equal to more than 10 per cent Of all
the improved roads previously exist
ing in the United States, and that it
is equal to nearly per cent of the
entire road system of France. At this
rate we would be able to build the
equivalent Of Frances entire road sys-
TEN in l2 years.

 Although no official statements were issued regarding the results of today's barley, indications were that the roads represented at the confer enees were standing firm with those which had detailed no delegates on tie decision of their association not to yield an inch on the demand that strikers be re-instated with full sen- iority rights.
 At the same time, shopcraft lead CTS in informal comment indicated they were not in any mood to accept individual settlements. The tone of these comments of the "all for one and one for alp policy announced by the unions at the beginning of the strike. Hints were dropped, after brotherhood chiefs had stated crypti- cally that tits now up to the shop men" that the leaders would find diff ficulty in winning them over to ap- proval of any individual agreement.
 When the mediators returned to Ia. bor headquarters for the monday conference with shopcraft leaders the report was current that some def mite proposal was under considera tion. Tonight it was said, however that only tentative suggestions had been advanced and that negotiations were still in the discussion stage.

 Of course, he falls in love with the girl who has never felt other than friendly toward him.

Lloyd Ingraham, who directed the screen version of Myrtle Reeds rom antic novel, Lavender and Old Lace has been called by those in the pro fession who know "hte director with out failure"
 He has directed most of the famous stars of the screen and some of those that have come from the stage to the screen.
 To MT. Ingraham go the honors for such notable successes as 'Mary's Ankle" Whats Your Husband Do. lng?" and "The Jail Bird" in which the famous comedy team, Douglas MacLean and Doris May, co-starred.
 When MT. and Mrs. Carter de Haven decided to bring to the screen their famous stage successes, Twin Beds and "The Girl in the Taxi" MT. Ingra- ham was selected from large number of directors to hold the megaphone. He made an unusual comedy of this stage farce.
 Because of these tremendous sue cesses he was the logical one to bring to the screen Lavender and Old Lace" He would lose none of the pathos and subtle comedy.
 He selected his cast and made his production.
 Lavender and Old Lace" will be seen at the Eagle theatre tonight and Saturday, and Central theatre next Sunday. It's a Hodkinson release.

Volstead ought not to sit as chair man of the committee before which the organizations counsel appeared for or against legislation. After ad- journment of the house, he issued this statement:
 ''The house of representatives, dom- mated by the Anti-Saloon League with an almost unanimous vote, today stifled debate upon the merits of the resolution calling for the peremptory removal of the chairman of the judi ciary committee, Andrew J.

 Establishment of such a govern tnent is not practicable without res toration of the country's solvency. Be fore Picking began defaulting on for eign loans, it would have been diff cult but not impossible to effect reuni- fication first and reorganization of the finances afterwards. Now, how ever, thi is out of the question.
 Although I have been invited to go to Picking, am not inclined to ac- cept until I can see feasible way to deal with our financial problems I would go to Peking if I had the as surance of the United States and the other powers to whom China is in debt, that favorable consideration would be given to reasonable propos- als to refund the principals of our matured debts and that throughout the period of our reorganization un- der foreign advice, the international consortium would make necessary ad. vances to carry on the administra- tion.''
 Sun Vat Sen expressed the opinion that any arrangement made by China with the powers must envisage the problem of her finances as related to the larger question of America's par ticipation in the reconstruction of Flu. rope
 Believing that Europe must ap- proach the United States with a def mite proposal to readjust war indebt edness, Sun hopes that America will remember that China is heartily in. debted to European powers and con sider the possibility or transferring tc America, Europe's position of creditor to China.
 He admits that his real object in putting forward this plan is his be lief that China will be able to obtain easier terms from America than from Europe owing to the favorable finan cial situation of the United States. He also thinks it possible that America would follow precedent, set in the matter of the Boxer indemnity, anC wipe off the books, a portion of Chi mas debts transferred from European accounts to America.

No doubt the enimies of prohibition, now so active through out the country, inspired this resolu- tion in the hope that it could be used as campaign material against my re- election; but the emphatic way in which the house reacted against such barroom methods will give them small comfort"

 IF U.S. DOLLAR
Government Will Be Urged to Adopt Measures to Prevent
 Economic Collapse

BERLIN, Aug. 24.-(By the Associa- ted Press)-The continual rise in foreign currency provoked by fears of a failure of the negotiations be- tween Sir John Bradbury, British member of separations commission and M. Mauedere. chairman of the all lied committee on guarantees with German officials in regard to the Ger man financial obligations, caused a panic on the bourse today.
 The dollar, which hitherto had ad- vanced from 30 to 40 points daily showed hourly rises of more than 100 points. At one moment it stood at g. 900 marks. Foreign currency was al most unobtainable. nobody being will ing to sell them.
 Commercial bargains between pro ducers, wholesalers and consumers, according to the Berliner Tageblatt are being increasingly transacted on the basis of the dollar quotation. The newspapers say that a number of the smaller banking firms and some bro kers are in difficulties owing to their obligations in foreign currencies. The issue of money orders for foreign countries has been suspended.
 The Voerwaerts announces that rep resentatives of the leading trades un. ions intend to immediately visit Chan. cellor Wirth and urge that the gov ernment adopt energetic measures to prevent the collapse of the whole economic life of the whole country.

MOVIES
"At the End of the WorIdu

Al the End of the World"
 If combined talent, artistry and op- portunity are of avail in the produc- tion of modern high class motion picture drama, then At the End of the World" should be one of the big gest successes of the season. It will be the attraction at the Central thea tre tonight and Saturday and at the Eagle thatre Sunday and Monday. The star is Betty Compson, whose work In The Miracle Man" stamped her as an emotional actress of rare charm and ability. While this picture marks Miss Compson's debut as Paramount star, it also marks the debut of Pen rhyn Stanlaws, American artist of note, as Paramount director.
 Miss Compson, known far and wide. for her beauty and talent has been entrusted wit ha role that gives full scope to her historic powers. She ap- pears as the daughter of a cynical but educated man who is conducting a nortorious Shanghai cafe, called .'The Paper Lantern" She has been taught 'O AOSolQ dll luSu dS DedSIS and 10 keep them at arms length" Many men are in love with her, she loves but one, who is indifferent to her. Therefrom is developed a plot that car ries the principals to lighthouse at the end of the world where much of the dramatic action transpires, but all ends as we have it end-happily.
 A masterfiul cast of characters is introduced interpreted by famous ac- tors, including Milton Stills, Casson Ferguson, Mitchell Lewis, Joseph Kill gour, Spottiswoode Aitkens and others
 MT. Stanlaws, who has been noted for his drawings and cover designs on many periodicals, creations of beauti- tul women, has proved that knowl- edge of art is a great asset in di- recting. His groupings, lighting and composition show his technical and ar tistic skill and his handling of the en- sembie and tense individual scenes is said to be faultless.
