ADJUSTMENTS
AT LoEw,s BIJOU

With Dr. J. Robert Pauline. emi- nent French psychologist. heading the vaudeville bill. with his enter taining and interesting scientific ex- periments of mind control over mat ters. and Johnny Hines, starring in Little Johnny Jones" on the screen, Odum, Bowers and Whites fur fash Ion show and four other good vaude- V9 acts. visitors to Loew's Bij u ttr this week are scheduled for one or the best weeks of the theatres history.
 Dr. Pauline states that his control of the mind over matter Is not a hypnotic show, but Is based upon the scienci of phychology and autOsug- gestion. By some unknown means he controls the body of the subject but leaves the mind free to function in its natural channels. His act Is a decided departure from the common hypnotic shows and takes on the form of real scientific experiment. which is interesting because 1t Is so unusual. The experiment of the control of the mind over the blood flow of another persons body is one that cannot afford to be missed.
 Johnny Hines In Little Johnny Jones'" Is another of the super-pic- lures which are billed for Loew,s for the coming year It was a story filmed as a prophecy for the recently staged International show between the English and American nations, only the story Is laid In England and is spiced with a villain and 8 TO- nance between Johnny Jones and an English noblewoman. It has both thrilling and humorous situations.
 Hazel Meran opens the bill with an exhibition of fancy roping. including the spinning of an S0-foot rope by woman, a most unusual feat. Glenn and Richards livened the bill with a good selection of odds and ends ranging from musical discords and comic dialogues to fancy athletic dancing.
 Clifford and O'Ctnnor and Bob Barry. with Dick Lancaster. proved themselves entertainers with heaps of nonsense and a great deal Of laughter and fun. Odum, Bowers

ST OCK TURNOVER
 IS AGAIN SMALL.
Tendency Of Market During Early Session Was Toward
 Higher Levels
By WALTER D. BROWN Editor New York COmmer rcial Leasad XNirA Rn The Are.HernIh

NLeaSed Wire to The AKe-HerAIuD
 NEW YORK. Oct. 22.--Monday's turnover In stocks was again ex- ceptionally small for a full business day, amounting to less than 470,0OO shares Out of such a dull session 1t was not possible to form satis- factory conclusions as to the rela- tionship of events to values.
 The most conspicuous item of news naturally related to the declaration of a republic In the Rhineland, but 1t created only casual interest, ana it was not until later in the day that the bears took It up to see what they could make out of 1t in "start- ing something" 1t had very slight effect.
 Much Investment Buying.
 The tendency of the market dur ing the early session was toward a higher level of values. There has besn 6 considerable amount of in- vestment buying, because close stu dents oT market conditions realize that stocks are cheap and while 1t is impossible to predict what the course of the market may be in the imme- d.ate future, there is little doubt that 1t will ultimately show a re- oovery that will amount to a sub stantiai advance over present levels.
 Some heaviness resulted from the decline ii sterling, which got below $4.50, the lowest price for the year, It was directly attributed to the withdrawal of American bank bal- 4shces In London because of the pos- Sibility of Imitation of British cap- itaj. Ii has been seriously proposed In what are considered normally conservative quarters in Great Brit ain. to Issue a moderate amount of psper money in the hope that the imitation would stimulate British in- dustry and thus reduce uEemploy- ment, which Is Great Britain's most pressing problem. With our own currency upon a gold basis. so that even our paper money is worth 100 cents in gold, there Is naturally feeling of uncertainty on this side with reAeitnce to any such manifes- tation on the part of British finan- cial authorities.
 Comments by the commission houses in their weekly reviews con tinue to reflect confident feeling with regard to present values of stocks. One of the oldest and most conservative houses says that judged by technical conditions the market certainly rests upon a good founda- tion. Another house refterates it's confidence that prices generally have discounted most of the irregularities in the business situation, and prac- rically all of them advise purchases for the long pull.

FEDERAL IRRIGATION PROJECTS UNDER FIRE

WASHINGTON. Oct, 22.-Decision to investigate each of the major feo- eral irrigation projects from it's In- ception to the present state of devei- opment was reached today by the special advisory committee on recla- mation.
 Before the committees final report is submitted to Secretary Work, Chairman Campbell, former governor of Arizona. said 1t is intended to analyze every step taken by the su- pervising bureau with a view to de- termining, If possible the basic cause of the present situation of the fed eral program.
 Further evidence that the situation is unsatisfactory and threatens the financial existence of a majority of the existing projects will be given by group of western governors who remained here after the law enforce ment conference Saturday to confer with the committee.

COTTON lNARKETIN SLIGHT ADVANCE

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-A moderate advance at the opening of today's cotton market was followed by re- actions. The general market closed firm net two points lower to l3 points higher, the more active months being live to 1S points above Sat urday's quotations.
 The market opened steady at un- changed prices to an advance of 15 points on relatively firm Liverpool cables and reports of frosts the belt. The most general feeling ap- peared to be that temperatures had not been low enough to do any gem eral damage, however. and other wise weather conditions were con- sidered more favorable. This en- ragged some selling on the open ing advance and the market turned easier before the end Of the morning under liquidation and scattered sell ing for reaction.
 Rumors that private returns pointed to a ginning report of 5,000,- 900 and the report of prominent cot ton seed oil interests placing the crop prospects as of October IS at 11,000.000 bales were probably fac tors on the declines Reports of an easier tone in the stock market were also mentioned in connection with some of the scattering Wall Street selling and there were rumors of kilS Htty edSlcT SpOl pdSlS III some or the eastern belt markets.
 After easing off from 29.9oc to 29.50c for October. and to 2SS7c for January or about IT to 30 points net lower. offerings became smaller and tL, market turned firm with mo st positions reaching the highest prices o1 the day in the late trading on trade buying and covering.
 The rally was accompanied by ru- mors that instead of 100000 pri- vate ginning returns pointed to about e.300.000 ginned to October Is. January sold up to 29.34c and last prices were few points off from the best under-realizing. Nothing more was heard of increased running time in Lancashire. but Liverpool held relatively steady during the entire day and the showing there tended to relieve uneasiness over European political conditions Exports today 11,359 making 1.390,SS4 so far this season.

 After the middle of the morning the market turned soft and in the early aft. ernoon was 21 to 30 points under the close of Saturday and at the lowest of the day with December off to 2S. soc. Just when the market looked weakest however. 1t ran into its heaviest buying of the day.

AT THE LYRIC

Al L. hbO
 "A Writing Room Wrangle" being shown as the headliner at the Lyric for the first half of the week Is one of the most thoroughly entertaining vaudeville acts ever presented to a Birmingham audience Neil Mack is born comedian. Funny and don't know 1t, which is 10 his credit. Vera Velmar the woman in the case. or rather in the play. does her part well. If you don care for the usual good photoplay offering, see a writ ing room wrangle at Lyric for It's sake alone.
 The Mckinley Sisters open with no use Tn trying to pick flaws in the act. It's sameness Is offset by the beauty of the girls and the costumes they wear.
 Stevens and Brunelle live thor oughly up to one of the most difft~ cult words used to describe vaude- vile act-exclusive. Exclusive Songs and Sayings" and It's all that.
 Ralph Kitner and Jim Reaney offer An Ocean Episode" It's a black face offering enacted aboard an ocean liner. Kitner as the stowaway and Reaney as the captain form very good working pair. They both sing just enough to cover their parts but their acting is better.
 Golden Visions is an entirely new departure for Birmingham Posing acts are as old as vaudeville Itself, but in Golden Visions the makeup is original to the extent it resembles precisely duplicate of bronze models. The act is. as labeled, "an artistic creation of beauty."--R. w. K

tolerant capital, who sees the light in part. He was thoroughly appre- ctated.
 zyllah Inez shannon, as Mary Margaret, effects the most dramatic mGmen in the whole play by her calm praying during a mob scene, followed by her exultant feeling when she finds she is able to walk, under stress of the excitement at tendant.
 Settings for "The Fool" arc un- usually effective and natural. Cos- tunes follow the lead of the casting and are well done. Thoroughness is the keynote Cf"The Fool" as power flu as the most violent mystery drama arc yet drawing moral lesson which Is not to be cast aside without re- flection It is a play that will hold your attention through each of its four acts.-II.
