While the country s a whole had

It has been disclosed at the White
House that the President also sees
no way by which the Treasury can
provide money for relief work. and. in
face of this barrier he wishes the pub
lie to clearly understand that the Red
Cross is depending solely on its con
tributions to carry on the work of
succor and rehabilitation.
A special congressional session does
not seem to President Coolidge to be
the wise way to solve the flood and re
lief problem, because of the time it
would take to call and organize Con-
gress and for it to authorize an appro-
priation. In this view he was sup
ported by several members of the Sen.
ate, while other members Of Congress,
particularly those from the flood area,

IRISH : JEWISH COMEDY
 AT LIBERTY TONIGHT

Bubbl,ng with a warm, human story of the tenement district of New Yorks East Side, and capped with a thrilling fire scene as the big climax, F. O's Gold Bond special, Kosher Kitty Kelly" will be at the Liberty theatre tonight. Under the magic di- rection of James Horne, noted as one of the best comedy directors in Hol- lywood, the screen version of the ia nous stage play is not only power full dramatic picture, but packed with delicious humor and screamingly fun ny interpretations of the Jewish and Irish characters about whom the story is written.
 Viola Dana gives a delightful pro- trayal of the little Irish heroine, and is ably seconed by Tom Forman as the Hibernian policeman. Stanley Taylor, Vera Gordon, Nat Carr, Aggie Herring, Carroll Nye and Kathleen Myers have the chief suporting roles, and all do splendid work. Gerald Duffy made the screen picture from Leon De Costa's play, and Frank Ormston supervised the production.
