A Dollar Can Blot Out the Sun

Captain Robert Dollar as our gifted commenta-
tor M E. Tracy, has told us, is hopping mad about
China
This grand old man of the Pacific world, who
has grown hoary headed building up feet of mer'
chant ships connecting this country with the Orient
thinks we lack backbone.
If he were the United States Government, we
infer he would tell the Chinese where to head in.
If they didn't behave we've idea he'd give them
Whit of INT and steel.
Despite our very sincere admiration of the pep
perry skipper now SO years young we feel bound
to say we are afraid his native Scotch caution is
carrying him a trhe far. His is the old-fashioned
way of treating enormous, but backward masses of
humanity Ramsay Macdonald, snother Scot and
former prime minister Of Britain, now visiting
among us, to our way of thinking has better I'M
derstanding of the situation.
"A politician without moral sense" he told
New Workers landing there, lis bad egg and a
politician without sense of history is half fool.
A statesman is man who possesses both"
That is better than epigram 1t is the virtue
of being true. The struggle in China is natures own
foment. The people are waking up. Like ants after
long hard winter, they swarmng about the
task of building themselves better place to live in.
Like dumb oxen we can step on them and kill a
lot, but cant stop them. We wreck what
is on top of the ground, but can't destroy the
main works underneath.
Now "the politician with a moral sense" will
try to help the Chinese. And the politician with a
Of history will be such fool as to think
for one moment that he can arrest the fundamental
impulse of four hundred million people. He is a
statesman who will this and shape his country S
policy accordingly.
American lives in China must be safeguarded
and American property protected insofar as may be.
But principle is at stake out there and the Chi
nese have a right to find it out just as we had in
the Civil War China did not intervene in the
eighteen sixties to protect the chop suey restau-
rants and aundries of her nationals that got caught
between the lines in Richmond and Atlanta.
THE thing to remember in the Chinese situa-
toin," former Premier Ramsay Macdonald went on
to say, lis that whenever and however the revo-
luton comes to end, China will remain part
of tho world, will you and we. We will still
have to be Chinas neighbors and to trade with
her. would say: Don't sacrifice the future for the
present moment"
There's canny Scot talking and a statesman.
If you put dollar close enough to your eye you
will blot out all the glories of the sun and the
heavens and the earth. There are Americans and
others in the China trade afraid of reduction of
whole golden future.

recall that on my return from New
York last fall l told you about this
movie. l state with no hesitation
that Beau Geste" is one of the ten
best movies of the year and proba-
bly, the leading mystery melodrama
yet given the screen. Here is a
movie of almost universal appeal 1t
has mystery, drama, more mystery
and some of the weirdest situations
yet reflected upon the screen. Her.
bert Brenon directed this really big
photoplay for Paramount.
It is peopled by a cast, the very
names of which really foretells its
quality. Supreme in the cast is
Ronald Colman. and he has the
splendid services of Noah Berry,
Neil Hamiltn. Ralph Forbes, Mary
Brian, Alice Joyce. William Powell,
Norm an Trevor, Victor McLanglen
and several others.
The keynote of the story is that
Of the love of three brothers, played
by Neil Hamilton, Ronald Colman
and Ralph Forbes. That is the key
not of the story. and it is splendidly
and humanity put over in the first
part of the story by the three
brothers.
A gem. a most valuable one, IS
stolen in the darkness in the pres
ence of the three brothers. All
take the blame and vanish.
Then the French Foreign Le-
gion, an organization which in sto-
ries at least yields tons of romance
and mystery to this photoplay.
1t has been my policy with mys-
terry stories and weird romances of
this nature not to tell you the story.
1 believe it robs one of the greatest
pleasure. When l first saw Beau
Geste" months ago on Broadway 1
was thankful that I did not know
too much about this story.
Yes. this is the movie where dead
men in a fort fight ito death" To
my way of thinking this is the
weirdest and most effective mystery
scene I have ever seen in my life
upon the screen.
And talk about fighting-this pic
ture has some real battles before a
fort of mystery.
1t takes real artistry to portray
characters of the type reflected in
Beau Geste," but it is no job for
Colman, Berry, Hamilton, McLaglen
and the others to give realistic char
acterizations before a melodrame tic
background.
Beau Geste" comes nearer being

Is He Contemptuous?

Soma months ago. lust before the November
election Attorney General Gilliom charged that the
head of the Anti.Saoon League of this State had at
tempted to terrorize the Supreme Court
The charge was definite in that it was made be-
fore the Supreme Court and asked that Mr.. Shu
maker be cited for contempt of that court
The avowed purpose of the charge was to free
the members of that court from the fear that poht
icaI mower in the hands of this organization so
that it's decisions liquor cases could be according
to the Constitution and the law rather than the
wishes of an organization bent entirely upon en-
forcement of one law.
The charge was grave The basis was fully
stated The language definite.
The head of the dry organization was charged
openly with msrepresentng decisions of the court
The Supreme Court named lawyers, picked so
that they would be evenly divided as to political
Affiliations and these lawyers reported that the
charge of the attorney general was we'll made and
that the activities Of the dry leader amounted to
contempt.
II is within the realm of proper discussion to
call attention to the fact that this proceeding is
summary action designed to apply an unusual
remedy in situation that calls for speedy action.
The power to punish for contempt is presumed
to be used only when court processes are being m-
peded and cannot function because of obstruction.
The action itself presumably Is one "nlCH ue'
mands instant action.
It is also proper to call attention to the fact that
since that charge was made several things have hap
pened.
An election has been held, at which judges 10
the Supreme Court have been elected,
The Legislature met and adjourned. The mem
bers of that body make laws They had the power to
change the dry laws of the State. They had the
right of investigation behalf of the people
But as yet neither the man under charge knows
nor do the people know, whether he Is in contempt
of the high court whether he acted in perfect
y legitimate manner when he issued his statements
to his membership and his directorate.
Respect for law and for courts is essential in any
community that pretends to exist under an orderly
government.
1t is certainly not presumptious to suggest thaE
all citizens have right to know how far they can
go in comment upon the Supreme Court and Its de-
cisons without impeding justice.
If Dr. shumaker was unjusty charged and wac
performing a public service in his comments, ne
should not be restrained by a proceeding that IS
as yet doubtful in its outcome.
If he has a policy of terror, if he rules by
menacing the consciences and the Judgment OF
Judges, the people have right to know.
Is he in contempt? Has he terrorized the
courts? Is such criticism he made beyond the
pale?
The people ought to have answer to these
questions and the present situation should be
ended

great start with Madeline, down
and out after being forced from
the wealthy home of her husband,
STOPPING to steal the pocketbook Of
James Finlay, played by John Bow
ers. The pocketbooll contained
enough dough to dress Madeline up
in the same style that she had be-
fore she left her husband. She
wanted to steal, because her hus-
band had sent word that she might
see her baby daughter. Finlay gives
Madeline three hours grace, meaning
that as soon as the time was up he
would turn her over to the police as
a common thief.
The past life of Madeline is told
in some finely constructed flash
backs relates her story to Finlay.
Then we see Finlay escort Madeline
to Durkins big home. There the
old ship builder had a surprise for
Madeline.
Yes, he would let her see her
daughter on the child's birthday.
And then the nursery door is opened

That is Jonathan's idea of a grim
joke And it is good theater. 1t

first real friend that Madeline has
