PICTURE RoME's DOWNFALL

There were no photographers to
record the dress and costumes of
the day when the barbarians over
threw ancient Rome. Neverthe-
less DeMille has produced an his
torically faithful reproduction of
this for his latest Paramount pic
ture, "Manslaughter,'' coming to
the Yashon Movie theatre Satur-
day night of this week.
The episode in question is his
torical cutback which wildly de-
picts the descent of the barbarian
hordes upon Rome. Weeks of re
search work on the part of the di-
rector, scenarist, and art director,
preceded the filming of it.
Leatrice JOY, who is one of the
principals of the modern portion
Of the story, is the hostess at a Law
ishly beautiful Roman bacchanal,
which is interrupted by Thomas
Meighan in the role of the leader
of the Cloths.
A strikingly realistic gladiator
ial combat is one of the many in
teresting features of the bacchan-
allan entertainment. Although
this episode required more than a
week to film and kept nearly a
thousand people employed, it will
occupy the screen for only few

B0RAH SAYS EUROPE
SHOULD HELP HERSELF

London.-The Daily News of Tues
day publishes a signed cable dispatch
from U. s. Senator Borah, who says
the obstacle to American assistance
in Europe is the demand there seems
to be that assistance shall begin by
the formation of some kind of po-
litical alliance, or league, or guaran-
tees.
Another obstacle, Mr.. Borah says,
is that Europe refuses to help herself.
Her militaristic and imperialistic
policy since the armistice," he is
quoted as saying, diminish our
hopes and destroy our faith"
Referring to Frances action with
regard to the Ruhr, he says it par
alyzes all the hope of the American
people.
In an appreciative editorial the
Daily News says:
"The senator reads Europe a Sc
we're lesson, which is not i'll de-
served"

RACE WITH DEATH
SOON WILL START

To be sped on a ten-thousand-mi
race with death, fifty thousand
pounds of cast-off clothes and shoes,
given by the people of this and
neighboring Northwest sections, will
leave Seattle in few days.
With other relief supplies from
adjacent states, those old clothes will
be dispatched by the Near East Re-
lief to the rescue of the long gray
lines OF shivering, hunger-tortured
women, children and feeble old men,
coming in writhing columns out of
the Turkish interior to escape from
the cruelties of the Turkish Nation

The third day of the session was de-
voted entirely to appropriation bills;
appropriations reaching the grand to-
tai of $4,371 ,OO012 were made, which
is a reduction of approximately $780,
900 over the recommendations made
by former Governor D. w. Davis.
Among the appropriations made
was that of $4,000 for the expenses
of the legislature.
The bill to repeal the state con-
stabulary received the support of both
Republicans and Progressives, in the
Senate and House.
Repeal of the section of the 1921
session laws providing for the pay
ment of license and putting up of
bond for the sale of tobacco is pro-
vided for in two bills introduced in
the state legislature on Friday. One
of the bills was presented to the SEN
ate by Senator Crooks. as No. 10,
while the other was introduced in the
house as No. IL, by Representative
Keeton of Benewah county.
AhC 1871 rex tSAdluit pdSScu q law
providing that persons and firms SELL
ing tobacco would be compelled 10 take
out a $50 license and would also be
compelled to put up bond for the OBJ
servanee of the law. Under this law
the bureau of license has taken in dur
ing the past two years revenue total
ing over 100000. The 1921 meas
ure provided that the license for the
balance of that year should be $50 and
for later years $50. The bond required
for observance of the law was $500.
In 1921 the license bureau took in
about $4,000 on licenses, and in 1922,
1915 dealers were licensed, the fees
to $50, $50.
The argument which has been made
by proponents of the repeal is that
the license works a hardship on the
smaller dealers and grocery stores
which had formerly handled tobacco,
and also that it did not help in enforc-
ing the law regarding sale of tobacco
% minors. The license law has been
&assed as a special class tax.

If COOLIDGE WERE TO
DIE HUGHES WOULD BE
ACTING PRESID ENT

Walter Runke of Flagstaff and sew
eral others recently had an argument
about who, in the event of President
Coolidge's death, would become presi-
dent. Walter contended that no one
would be president, though the secre-
tary of state would become acting
president. He wrote the Pathfinder
Publishing Co., at Washington, to set
tie the argument, and received this
reply:
"The secretary of state in such
event would become only acting pres
ident. If he resigned his office as
secretary it would be given to him
self-that is, the resignation would
He probably would have the right only
to one salary, that of president, al
though the case has never been set
tied. If the secretary of state should
become acting president by the death
of both president and vice. president,
the house of representatives would
elect a president. The constitution
says the president shall be elected;
therefore the secretary Of state could
not become more than acting presi-
dent"
Mr.. Bunker later had letter from
the u. S. bureau of efficiency which
explained further that in case the Sec
retary of state also became incapac-
itated, the secretary of the treasury
would be acting president.
