PALACE-"War Paint"

Blood splas he'd and thunder crashed
At the Palace yesterday, the occasion
being the presentation Of a wild and
wooliy movie, War Paint" and the
appearance of Ben Bernie and his
very fine orchestra. Ben provides
most of the thunder. Most Of the
Crowd-and il was a good one
obviously came to hear him; he re-
ccived most of the applause, and he
deserved it. for this is one of the best
orchestral road shows.
1t is interesting to see picture like
War Paint" 1t seems to mark the
last stand Of the old-time thriller,
which fourished in the two-reeler.
kept going for a time in the serial
and now hides under the cloak of
five-reeler. But it is a bit sad to
notice that trick photography and
mechanics are needed to prod the
action into some semblance of its old
time speed.
War Paint" has speed. however.
From the moment when the hero,
who goes by the name of Mr.. Mar
shall, a lieutenant is told by the hoop
skirted heroine that she wouldn't
marry him if he was the last man
IN the world" until the last surviv-
ing redskins bite the dust. the picture
is replete with melodrama. The
trouble starts when Mr.. Marshall
turns directly to the camera and re-
marks in bass voice: Iron Ewes has
escaped md gone on the warpath: this
man is the last surviving member of
his guard" At this point the last
surviving member of his guard ceases
10 survive and Mr.. Marshall dashes
off into the midst of hostile Indians
TO give the colonel's daughter the
necessary impetus to admit that she
ls his.
The attack of the Indians on the
fort and a couple of wild rides, about
rs wild as anybody wants to see, keen
the show going until the aforesaid
colOnel'S daughter breaks down and
eonfesses what the audience knew all
the time. The best part of the whole
performance is when one Olaf Peter
son, using a redskin as an Indian
club, kills q of the savages in three
minutes. Tim Mccoy and Pauline
Starke play the leads.

CENTRAL-.yNhispering Canyon"

The giant redwoods of California
form the background for a story of
vigorous action, bare emotions and
thrilling climaxes visualized in "Whis-
pering Canyon" being presented the
first two days of this week at the
Central Theater, with Jane Novak in
the stellar role, supported by Robert
Ellis and splendidly selected cast.
"Whispering Canyon" relates a tale
of adventure, intrigue and daring that
grips the interest with it's first flash
upon the screen and compounds in
terest and suspense until the final
climacteric episode is faded from the
screen. Miss Novak, long recognized
as an actress of resourcefulness and
charm, has seldom had so congenial
role as that of Antonia Lee. The
comedy note is struck by the juvenile
rascals of 'Our Gang" in Hal Roach's
two-reel production of "Shiverins
Spooks," and an added attraction is
furnished by a United States Navy
reel

ASK REHEARINC
IN BOND CASE
Moody Requests High
Court to Withhold
Archer Mandate
(By The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 20.-At-
torney General Moody of Texas today
asked the supreme court for a rehearing
in the Archer county case in which the
court recently held that the organiza-
ton of the road district No. 2 in that
county was unconstitutional.
The decision of the court holding that
organization of the road district was
invalid because the property owners
had not been given notice and an OPP
portunity to be heard and there had
been no legislative determination that
their property would be benefited by To-
cal improvement has attracted wide at
tention throughout the country in it's
possible effect upon the question of
road improvement districts and wide
interest was attracted to the next move
Texas might make.
Attorney General Moody asked the
court to hold up its mandate until II
acted upon his motion for rehearing.
The attorney general advised the
court lHdL JOHi ~. 4ioolO' WIZ "1'
represented county officials in an ap-
peal, had refused to join in motion
for a rehearing and had announced his
intention to ask that mandate be is
sued. He asserted that the brief for
county officials had been prepared in
his office and that he had a right to
ask for a rehearing.
The Texas attorney general said the
board of education of Texas had pur-
chased bonds similar to those issued by
the road Improvement district which
the supreme court declared had been
illegally issued to the amount Of 1924 =
900.
Outstanding road district bonds ag-
gregating $75,00O,000 and held by the
public generally throughout the coun-
try, Mr.. Moody said, had been issued
before the validity of the state statute,
at issue in the Archer county case.
was passed upon by the supreme court.
Many of these bonds, he added. were
issued under the conditions reviewed
by the court, which held that where the
legislature had not created the road
district and determined the benefits,
and property owners were not heard,
the assessment Of taxes on such bonds
would be invalid.

CHARGE
AGAINST JUDGE
Senate Committee Inves.
tigating Tennessee
Jurist's Records

WASHINGTON, D.. c.. JAN 20.-Fed-
eral Judge Harry B. Anderson of the
western district of Tennessee, was
charged with falsifying records, in cas-
es pending before him in documents
laid today before senate judiciary
sub committee.
The charges were in the form Of
specifications which the committee was
asked to make basis for investigation
of Judge Anderson's acts. He was ac-
cused also of failing to administer pun
ishment I'm the manner, grade and de-
gree required by law in the particular
cases then pending for consideration
and in failing to uphold the law and
properly administer the law in cases
pending before him.
Another charge was that the Judge
is without legal training and legally
incompetent and morally incapable of
properly discharging the duties Of the
high office" and that he was not res
ident of the district when he took of
flee.
Judge Anderson was given a recess
appointment last September and his
confirmation is now contested.
After counsel for those opposing the
nomination had announced they could
not proceed until records of Judge An
derson's court had been brought from
Memphis, the defense decided to 90
ahead with testimony on the question
of residence.

INNO1E
Brief Published in Wash
ington Avoids Retro
active Clauses Of New
Mexican Acts
(By The Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Jan. 20.-The
Mexican "anti alien land law subject
of conversations between Washington
and Mexico City. is defined in diplo-
matte brief drafted by Foreign Minister
Saenz, and made public here by the
Mexican ambassador.
While making no mention of retro
active provisions of the law, to which
this government has recently, protested,
the brief supported other phases i'm
posing conditions under which foreign
ers may acquire stock in Mexican COM
panies or concessions. 1
The foreign minister declared the or
canic law of section l Of article 27 Of
the Mexican constitution cannot be con-
sidered as an alien law because it does
not deal with the status of foreigners.
Instead, he asserted, it treats with con-
stitutional rights of Mexicans and Mex
lean corporations for acquisition Of
lands and concessions in that republic.
Defends Statute
The brief pointed out that foreigners
were permitted to acquire land and
stock providing they agree not TO have
recourse to other means Of making
their rights effective than those which
are granted by Mexico to its. nationals.
A provision Of the law requiring heirs
coming into possession of property held
by foreigners to agree not to appeal to
their governments in case of dispute
had been protested by the state depart
ment. 1t was contended that no Amer
lean valves his national rights in that
fashion. 8sl-.a
Replying, the Mexican brief denied
that such rights would be injured and
declared that "should a state be de-
prived of the liberty Of modifying its
laws at any time. it would be prevented
from further development in judicial
matters" 1t added that cit is mat
ter pertaining to the state itself to
weigh the advantages and .disadvan-
tages which a new law may have for
the community
More Lenient Than U. s.
As it will be SEEM" the document
continued, "the law, far from injuring
acquired rights, is extremely lenient
with foreigners. since it affords them
ample opportunity to comply with the
provisions Of the constitution Of the
republic.
The foreign minister suggested that
the Mexican policy is more liberal than
that of the United States, where, by
means of immigration laws. foreigners
are practically barred from establishing
themselves in its territory, in great
part of which residence is required as
condition to the acquisition of real
property" =
He contended that rights Of petrol
cum and mining companies holding
francsises only to the subsoil are PRO-
tected under the law, and that itEs
franchises only to the subsoil are pro-
vent foreign interest from being mo-
Tested by the development. of the agrari-
an policy, thus avoiding in advance, pos
sible diplomatic discussions with friend
ly nations"

new Home FOR
c. OF C., PLAN
Would be in Setting of
Parks; Auditorium
Body to Meet

A new, beautiful and permanent home
for the Brownsville Chamber of Com
merce is in the offing.
Plans for such home have been
sketched by w. d. Van Siclen, local ar
chitect, the Missouri Pacific has agreed
to furnish site for the office build
ing on Levee street near the new rail-
way station and the Hotel FL Jardin,
and the financial end Of the home IS
being worked out by the Chamber of
Commerce directors, and others in the
city interested in seeing a permanent
building for the Chamber of Commerce
erected.
The setting of the Chamber of Com
merce home will be in the midst of two
beautiful parks, these park spaces hav-
ing been set aside bv the Missouri Pa
cific for the use Of the city Of Browns
vile. One park space is on one side
of the new street which will extend
from the international bridge to Levee
street, striking that street about the
middle of the block between Twelfth
and Thirteenth streets. The other park
space is on the other side of the street,
both spaces fronting on Levee street.
Parks to be Beautified
"These parks will be filled with beau
tiful trees and plants, and with a pro-
fusion of seats and benches" said G..
c. Richardson. secretary of the Cham
ber of Commerce. "This is one thing
that is greatly needed in Brownsville
if the city is to become a resort for
tourists, as it surely will. One of the
things which made st. Petersburg, Flor
ida, the resort that it is was the cree
tion of plenty of parks and benches.
When people come to a city just to
rest, and enjoy the sunshine and seen
cry, they like place where they can
walk out in the omen and sit down.
The plan calls for the widening of
Levee street by ten feet from the cor
ner of Thirteenth street to the corner
of Eleventh, and possibly on to the cor
ner of Tenth and beyond that.
The parks would all have facilities
for the entertainment and rest Of tour
lists, including horse shoe pitching
grounds, croquet lawns, lakes with seats
around them, and other such features.
