Mr.. Fields, manager of the Rylan-

for only two days, Monday and
Tuesday.
With a cast consisting of Doris
Kenyon, Lloyd Hughes, Frank Mayo

go into a lengthy description of its
acting, suffice is to say that it is
superb.

beyond reproach and the settings
depict high tone London and fever

Criminal Syndicalist
Law Protest to Be
Held in Los Angeles
Especial to The Daily worksr)

Los ANGELES, Calf, Feb. IL
The criminal syndicallsm law of Cali
fornia is one Of those numerous vic
ious expressions of capitalist dictator
ship somewhat more openly violent
than its other phases, 1t has penned
within the walls Of San Quentin and
Folsom some Of the bravest proletar-
ian fighters OF the west. In the east,
similar laws are aimed at similar
working class agitators. In Michigan
the Communists are lighting against
prison. In California the I. w. w.
militants have felt the heel of class
justice.
The significance OF, these cases,
what 1t means IL labor fails to defend
these and similar lighters, and what 1t
can mean to labor If all its separate
elements combine upon repelling the
assaults Of the common enemy, this
will be the subject OF lecture by
Ella Reeve Bloor, to be given at the

LOCAL COST OF PROHIBITION

Says Mayor Schwab OF BufTalo, addressing COM
ference of mayors:
Every city official must recognize the terrific
burden being imposed cities to help enforce the
Vostead act It has cost Buffalo close to S1OOO,OO0
in the last five years believe cities should be re-
imbursed by the federal government for what they
spend in this line
Here is a curious view. 1t would be interesting to
have all the facts on which it is based Many other
cities have reported decreased expenditures for polic
ing and the support of penal and charitable insttu
tons since the or less dry began, along with
az increased prosperity and thrift which enriched the
city by increase of taxable wealth.
A survey is to be made in New York state to de-
termine the local cost of prohibitions; organiza-
ton should see to the collection of evidence the
other side.
But supposing that the result does uphold Mayor
Schwab. Is the principle to be assumed then, that
CITY or local political unit is entitled to make the fed
era government pay the expense of enforcing any fed
era law? This would be novel doctrine. It might be
novel economies too inasuch the United States is
made up of local units that ultimately have to pay til
federal expenses.

BILLIONS FOR BUILDING

United States during 1924. The actual building ran

then may be accepted a fairly accurate prophet
when it promises S5,O0000G,OO of new building for
1925
"Will the country never get built up?" people ask
Not for while yet, at any rate Architects explain
that the normal building amounts to S3,000000000 to
500 600 COO year, and that there is still building
deficit of about s., ,000000000 to make up On that
basis it will take about three years more of current
tivity to bring the country back to normal.
But arriving there, the American people may not
be satisfied with normal accommodations, and may
insist going right ahead and providing homes Of
fice hotels factories, stores, churches schools, etc.
according to and higher standard. Present ten
