Brookhart Assails Message.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-President
Coolidge's annual message was re-
ceived in congress today with the
usual mixed praise and criticism.
Administration republicans, gener-
ally commended the document, while
democrats and progressives picked
flaws in many of the presidents
recommendations
BrOOkhart Differs.
Senator Brookhart, Iowa insurgent,
strongly condemned the presidents
farm program. He declared that the
president had supported a subsidy"
for American railroads, a direct sub
sidy for ship-owners, indirect price
fixing" through the tariff, for manu-
facturers and had put the government
into the banking business through the
fedora. reserve system.
Against Farmers.
After failing to oppose these mea-
sures for other groups, the president
denounces their use to aid agricul-
ture," Brookhart said. ellis recon-
mendations for relief are wholly in
adequate. He has promised the farm
er equality in his platform, though in
office he is repudiating the pledge.
/ predict that if the president and the
republican party carry out his pres
ent recommendations, the west and
south will put the republican party
out of business"
Nye. McNarV Critical
"The president is too vague" de-
clared Senator Nye, of North Dako-
Ia. "He doesn't give us even a sug
gestion for the start of bill. | do
not see anything in his message,
though, condemning the McNary-
Haugen bill as 1 don't consider it
price-fixing or subsidy measure"
Senator McNary (R) of Oregon,
chairman of the senate agriculture
committee, also was critical.
"The presidents suggestion that
cooperative marketing be promoted
through loans was contained in the
bill he vetoed last year. His plan
may be helpful but it does not go far
enough to meet the demand of farm
organizations nor is it their opinion
it will bring about equality between
industry and agriculture"
"Ohio Gang" Praise.
Senator Fess of Ohio, who spon-
sored the presidents substitute farm
bill last year, heartily endorsed the
message.

COMEDIES AND
'WOOLLY STUFF
LEAD FILMS

Western and comedies lead in
preference of the public for fea.
lures. according to Will H. Hays.
In the short subject field, the
newsreel has first honors with
comedies.
And by Westerns we do not
mean the rough and tumble shoot.
'em-up stories on bad men and
cowboys" he explains. THE day
of the crude Western story and.
cattle rustlers and dance halls
has passed. Pictures of that kind
have been succeeded by splendid
ly produced stories of the West
as 1t really was and really is.
THE immense popularity OF the
old Broncho Billy pictures was an
early indication OF the public's
interest in the romance of the old
West. Then came Bill Hart, Zho
was followed by other men who
loved the West, and who actually
lived the West-Tom Mix, Hoot
Gibson, Ken Maynard, Fred
Thomson, Jack Holt, Tim Mccoy,
and a host of others. A few
years ago the historical Westerns
came into being. The Covered
Wagon / believe, was the first.
The success of this picture en-.
couraged the producers and
brought to the screen The Van
ishing American North of
Thirty-Six,' The Iron Horse The
Last Frontier and The Flaming
Frontier In much the same
class are the Western pictures
starring dogs and horses, like Rim
Tin-Tin and Rex.
mo automobile race ever pos
sessed the thrill of a laundering
body Of horsemen. Studio sets
seldom equal the grandeur and
glory OF real Western canyons,
deserts, forests and mountains.
That the people like these
stories is proved by surveys made
for the last two years. Theater
owners throughout the United
States reported for each year the
104 pictures that had been at
tended by the most people. OF
the 20S pictures listed, so were
Westerns.

Sidney Lust, who is the lead
ing chain-house owner in the
minor league, is the first man
of our acquaintance to capital
ize that nebulous thing known
as public taste"
Heretofore that taste has
been the most battling of va
grants. You never could put
your hand on it and find out
exactly what it was. Every
time a theater owner went out
with a net and swiped swaths
in the atmosphere, he found his
catch was of a different breed;
known as Indifference.
Well, Uncle Sidney hit on the
idea of asking people what they
wanted. He got out bulletins
listing the outstanding films of
the last decade, accompanied by
a request for patrons to mark
their choices. They responded
with a gusto that amazed, even,
the optimistic Sidney. and today
it gives The Gate-Post great
pleasure to say that Mr.. Sidney
Lust, owner of the Leader,
Olympic and several other thea
tiers, is having himself tailored
for a Hispano and is wearing a
cane on cloudy nights.
= r. =
1t is we'll to amplify that Mr..
Lust's proposition is not one of
those "arty" moves which thrive
on revivals imposed on the pub
lie. The idea is the same, ex-
cept that one gets honest enter
tainment at honest prices
through the Lust policy and not
shoddy revivals when the rental
for these revivals is so low as
to make it a shame to take the
money.
The impudence of these cart"
theaters is appalling and on the
first cool day more will be said
of them.

Evening star., 1927-09-22

Abe Mitchell, a great artist with
the wood. probably the longest
driver in British golf, has very de-
cided views on slicing. l like to
have star golfers discuss slicing.
for 1t is a fault all of them fall
into at times, whereas most of us
are continually in battle with this
curse. Abe claims that one can
slice perfectly-if there is such a
thing as perfect slice-even if
his backswing and pivot are ac-
cording to rule. The trouble is
with the hands.
The right way to start the down
swing, according to Mitchell and as
shown in the drawing of the figure
on the left above, is to pull down
with the hands, let the body sink
down very slightly and have the
left knee bend outward.
The wrong way to start the
swing, the sure way to put slice on
the ball. is to start the downswing
by pushing the hands out from the
body. That is just what the player
pictured on the right in the Illus
tration is doing. When that is
done the club head cannot follow
the path it made on the upswing.
It's bound to go outside the up
swing circle and meet the ball as
it is coming into the left leg. That
is pulling the face of the club
across the ball from the outside in
and making dead certain of
cursed slice. Watch this point in
checking up on your slice.
