ASK MORE POWER
FOR STATE BOARD
Want Strict Penalties for
= Budget Law Violation.

The State tax board has completed
the preliminary draft OF a bill pro
viding certain amendments to the
tax law as recommended by the Gov
ernor, which will be submitted to the
House by Majority Leader Lemuel
A. Pittenger.
The amendments provide stricter
penalties for the violation OF the
budget law, making the official and
his bondsmen liable for the amount
OF illegal expenditures, plus rs per
cent penalty and attorneys fees.
Exemption from assessment of
stock in foreign companies to the
extent of the value OF physical prop
erty located within the State. Is an
other provision.
It further provides for appeal of
taxpayers from equalization orders
of the State board of tax commits
sioners; makes changes in time al
lowed the State board for sending
notices OF various actions to county
auditors; gives the State board au-
thority to equalize values within a
taxing unit; permits the board to
reopen any assessment which it con-
siders too high, and gives author
ity for the board to assess real prop
erty each year.

H. Lauds Borah's Reply
Mr.. Borah's answer to the secre-
tary Of state was good, clear
answer because, as Borah said,
nothing had been revealed.
The statement Of Mr.. Kellogg no.
where quoted officials or official doc
ufnents. but only statements from
international associations in which
Americans seem to have played a
rather active part probably because
the suject concerned the American
continent.
The Nicaraguan situation has
nothing to do with Russian policies
on the American continent because
we do not have relations with any
other American countries except
Mexico and Uruguay, and we do not
concern ourselves In the external or

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-While wait

Sullivan to appear, we'll have TO get
along with the Maurine Watkinses,
George Kaufmanns and such.
For those sturdy American vir-
tues, concerning which latter day
writer's made so much, have long
since been turned to an exposition
of equally hard voices and foibles,
and there are many things at which
It Is best to laugh that we may not

open to lampooning than this in

tons might be termed the tabloid
influence" and Miss Maurlne Wat
kins, petite and charming newspa-
per writer, who has undergone at
least a couple of trials, has made a
penetrating and timely burlesque
analysis of this in her widely trum-
peted play, Chicago"
Briefly, here Is presented the
amusing and amazing metamorpho-
ses of a hard boiled Jane" who
goes to trial for Staying her lover
She Is led to her cell fighting, bit
ing wench, but ere the curtain has
owned, she is grooming "Baby

she knits bonnets for a baby that
never will be born.
just Publicity
Miss Watkins has overlooked none
OF the "hooey" associated with such
a. case. All the avenues OF publicity
are thrown wide open and from dis
trict attorney to defense lawyer to
Judge to camera-man to sob-sister,
there is some ak to grind.
We see this hard-boiled Hannah
kissing the fury after acquittal and
being offered movie and stage con-
tracts, getting offers for books and
other incidentals that would make
her a fortune. The final irony is
achieved when, Just as she sees her
self as a vast parsonage, thanks to
a murder, another gal of similar like
murders both q husband and lover
Just outside the courtroom window,

another travesty.
This sort of thing is not partic-

for Jeanne Eagles.
Another less worthy commentary
Is that contained IN Peter Glenny's
New York Exchange" which has a
fine Satire idea that may yet be-
come a good play. The theme is a
variant of Cradle Snatchers" and
another piece in which ting dancing

are chief figures.
A young man from the country
finds himself taking a Job in a cab
aret, loosely disguised under the
name OF Dallas Dinon's" and here
drift a couple of gigolo-hunters of
mature years, one Of whom already
has enjoyed the experience of being
robbed by a night club crook. The
country boy needing money, comes
into the grasp of the older woman
and does not escape until the last
act, which falls apart thanks to bad
anU-climax.
Fine Production
The most noteworthy production
Of the week is the Theater Guilds
English version of THE Brothers
Karamazoff," once given in French
and again in Russian when the Mos
cow Arts Theater came to town.
The guild version is marked par.
ticularly by the direction Of Jacques
Capeau, that modern-minded man OF
the theater who journeyed from Paris
recently to give this dramatization
Of which he was co-author, her per-
sonal touch.
Capeau has a wizardry of stage
manipulation and arrangement
which merits consideration of chron-
icles more deeply dedicated to the
arts than is this weekly letter.
The Dostolevsky story of the sons
of the lecherous old Feodor and their
terrible inheritance is now classic
and should be, If It is not, generally
known.
One thing 9 certain; the stature
Of Alfred Lunt-an actor practically
unknown off Broadway-is complete.
ly measured by his performance of
Dimitri. Here is a young man who,
within a single season has given
such diverse characterizations as
Emperor Macmillan in Macmillan
and Juarez," the bootlegging Gala
han in Ned McCobb's Daughter"
and the Russian Dimitri-and has
run the gamut perfectly.
Since John Barrymore seems
welded to the movies, let us COM
ment in passing that Dimitri is such
a role as might have been. cut to
order for Barrymore, but which he
could not possibly do better than
Lunt. Hence, Lunt is herewith
voted our outstanding male favorite
of the theater.
