Smith and Deneen declined to
comment on reports of their con-
ference and Smith spokesmen said
no developments could be looked
for despite the inference in some
quarters that Deneen had induced
Smith not to persent his creden-
tials at the short session.
Both Senators Wheeler and Rams
dell spoke of communist aspects
of the situation, the Louisiana sena-

vision of this wise policy since
the communists in Mexico are try
ing to implant their vagaries in
Nicaragua, hoping that they may
spread throughout Central America

of Mexico with the other Central
American states, of which Gales
(president of Mexico) aspires to

Senator Wheeler said "Only those

lieye in Santa Claus can be fooled
by such hypocrisy in the state
ment that marine and battleships
were in Nicaragua to protect the
American continent from the

Show Pleases AT

Ry LILLIAN WHITESIDE

"Jiggs, Maggie and Dinty," lat
est musical stage adoption of
George McManus' famous cartoon
comedy, Bringing Up Father" !"
was offered last night. at the
Winslow Opera House to a fair
sized audience.
The presentation, in spots, was
quite as good as might be expect
ed and the musical numbers in
general were good.
Joan Catteral, 1ngenue, who
played "Jigg's daughter" and Cor
don Forsythe, juvenile, who play
ed opposite her, were easily the
best in character parts, while Mita
Canine, sort of combination
singing -danseuse, easily took the
honors of the show.
Neither "Jiggs" Milton nor
Frances Farrell as his rolling-pin
twirling spouse made much of an
impression on the audience, which
had come, apparently with pre-
digested idea of what the comic
strip characters should be and
were disappointed.
The show is under the direction
of the E. ]. Carpenter attractions.

would be refused. He, however,
informed McClintic of his willing

In his statement McClintic also
said that certain officers in the
