At The Movies
CAPITOL THEATRE

One Of the finest pictures It has
ever been our pleasure to see was
presented last night at the Capitol
theatre, where it will be shown for
the next two days. 1t is entitled
THE Merry Widow" The produc-
ton is a splendid piece of workman
ship and shows Mae Murray and
John Gilbert, as c0-stars, doing the
best work Of their varied and bril-
liant careers. Erich Won Stroheim,
whose directorial genius immortal
ICED Foolish Wives" has fulfilled a
similar function with Tho Merry
Widow"
Laid in a mythical Balkan kingdom,
the picture reflects all the glanor,
fascination and beauty Of the Con
tinent. The settings are nothing
short Of exquisite and the coronation
sequence done in natural colors is Of
sucn beauty and splcndor that it will
long be remembered by all those for
tunatc enough to see the picture.
The story is repletc with surprises
and moves ut pace that keeps the
spectator enthralled during every
moment of its unfoldmcnt. 1t tells
of the romantic adventures Of dash
ing young prince admirably well
portrayed by John Gilbcrt) and Il
vivacious Irish American dancer
(dcftly characterized by Mae Muir
ray). 1t is brimful with surprises
and thrills. and it's climaxcs lead one
to another with refreshing swiftncss
as n series Of beautiful tablcaux
mark the progress of the plot.
Though the mood Of the picture is
dramatic, delicate vein of humor
appears throughout which serves To
heightcn and at the same time re-
licvc the tensencss Of the picture.
The film is worthy Of the most in
praise and patronage for it lives up
to the true reason for it's existence

TO WORK FOR
HIGH LINE BILL
Jones Says Our Project
Will Have an Early
Consideration

Criticism of the republican ad-
ministration and of the acts of
the present senator are all that
have been forthcoming from A.
Scott Bullitt, democratic nominee" :"
said Senator Wesley L. Jones in
a street corner speech here Tues
day. r..s..s
He pointed out that Bullitt has
assailed the foreign debt settle
ment. "What does he offer in
stead?' asked Sen. Jones.
He declared that the settlemen.
was the best that could be OBJ
tanned. "When man owes you
money and doesn't pay you, you
can get an order from the court
and the sheriff will foreclose on
his property. There is no sheriff
among nations. The only way for
a nation to collect from another
is go to war. This nation will war
to defend its citizens and its SOW
reignty but never to collect mon
ey."
He said he is doing all in his
power to hasten construction of
the Kennewick high line. 81 have
been in congress % years and
believe / have learned something
in that time. If you think an un-
tried man can do more for this
project than I, you should vote
along that line"
He denounced Bullitt for giving
the impression to the public that
he (Jones) introduced a bill to
close amusements on Sunday all
over the nation.
"Bullitt knows that is false"
the senator said: "The congress
has no jurisdiction over the states.
1 introduced a bill at the request
of group of leading citizens of
the national capitol. would do it
again under the same Circumstance
es. Those people are entitled to a
hearing. But that bill would apply
only to Washington, d. c."
"My general opinion is that it
is not right to close moving pic
lures and other amusements on
Sunday and / told the committee
of Washington people that when
they waited on me. They asked me
to introduce the bill anyway and
/ did. That was in 1921. The bill
didn't come up for hearing. At the
last session they asked me to re-
introduce it, and l refused"

BURBANK DAM
TO BE BIGGER
Plant on Snake to Pro-
vide Cheap Power
For Irrigation

Favorable action has been TAX
en- by the federal Water Power
commission on the application of
the Burbank Irrigation district in
this state for permission to extend
it's Snake River power dam to in
crease its water supply, according
to a telegram the Chamber of
Commerce state development COM
mittee recently from Washington,
DC, The seattle chamber joined
recently with the Walla Walla
chamber of commerce in urging
the granting of the application.
The telegram says that an
amendment to the districts power
license will be granted as soon as
formal approval of the step is OBJ
tanned from the war department,
which must be consulted since it
has jurisdiction over navigable
waters.
Granting of the amended Ii
cense, Asahel Curtis, chairman of
the Chamber Of Commerce commit
tee, said today, will permit the
district to begin at once dam ex-
tension work that it is estimated
will cost $15O,OOO, approximately.
The money already is on hand,
having been raised by the bond
holders of the district, aided by
the Northern Pacific railway and
various other interests.
The Burbank district has suffer-
ed for several years from lack of
irrigation water at low stages of
the Snake River because the pres
ent dam at Five Mile Rapids has
proved inadequate to divert suffi-
cient water to the power plant
that supplied electricity for pump
ing. The shortage was particularly
acute this year and many settlers
were on the point Of abandoning
their farms.
The enlarged dam, it is believed,
not only will give the Burbank
district adequate water supply but
will provide surplus of power to
be sold to the Franklin County and
Alfalfa projects which are now
only partly developed, due in part
to lack of cheap power for pump
ing.
The Burbank district contains
5000 acres, about $500 acres of
which have been cultivated. 1t is
expected that with more water
provided, the cultivated acreage
will be increased. The Alfalfa pro-
ject contains about 1000 acres, and
the Franklin county project about
1000.

COLLECT s6o.1s

KennewGk folk opened their
hearts and purses on Saturday to
help the destitute women with
children and other unfortunates in
care of the Volunteers of America
by contributing the sum of $60.15
to that worthy cause. Everyone
connected with the affair was
deeply grateful to all who in any
way helped make the day success
full.
A. statement issued by the or
ganization's representative says:
''To the city officials, the news
paper, the merchants who furn-
ished the incentives for the child
ren's efforts as well as to Miss
Winnifred Huntington's capable
leadership full credit should be
given; neither must the public's
generosity in patronizing the
youthful workers be omitted. From
early in the morning until late
in the afternoon each of the girls
and boys played the merry game of
competition for the prizes and
movie tickets and at the close of
the contest it was found that Nor
man Atterberry was entitled to
the first prize, having collected
$9.06. The second was won by
Freeda Ocheltree who had $3.50.
Edith Stradford had $5.56 and re-
ceived the third prize. The fourth
was won by Valeria Holcomb with
$5.53. The other children were
made happy with the movie pass
es."
