 Prof, William K. Gregory, also of tn" American Museum of Nat ural History and close friend of pr. Osborn, !s one Of the leading opponents of the earlier theory.
 Professor Osborn's Discoveries, ne says, relate only 10 the clos ing chapters in the history of man.

THE DRAG NET IS
 AT THE CAPITOL
George Bancroft Is Starred in
 Underworld Melodrama

Machine guns chatter ficrcely as sworn enemies meet in bitter con- flict in The Drag Ne,."> the Para mount picture playing at the Capitol Sunday night fer four days. George Bancroft is stirred in this high voltage melodrama Of the fight to the death between police and an organized band of murdcrous hi- hackers.
 Recalling Bancrofts performances in Underworld" and The Show Down" it was easy to expect a virle and exciting vehicle of screen enter tainment in "The Drag Net" It has all the thrilling qualities which made Underworld" such a tre- mendous success and all Of the tense drama Of The show Down." In addition there is q strain of pathos and an unusual thread of romance W .ich easily cntitlc "The Drag Net" to be chased as a really great pie ture.
 The picture deals with the under world theme but attacks the prob- lem from the standpoint Of the men who defend society with their lives. Bancroft takes the part of a 1etcc- tive lieutenant who doesn't know the meaning of fear. He is given or ders to clean out the gang of crooks who have been making law and order a mockery in a tough district of the city
 Bancroft is superb in his char acterization of the detective leutcn- ant and Evelyn Brent gives | won- derful performance as the girl who admircs strength above all other qualities. William Powell gives one Of 'is usual masterly performances as the underworld gang and Fred kohlcr is exceptionally convincing as Steve the Greek. one of the gang leaders leutcnants. Leslie Fcnton has one of the best roles in the pic turc as Shakespeare, the literary detective and plays il perfectly.
 There will be two complete shows Sunday evening at 6:30 and S:15 and on Monday, Tuesday and We'd nesday the shows will be continu- nls. On Thursday the nanagcm mt offers q great double feature show presenting as the main attraction "Hangman's House" with Victor Me- ].ag'en featured. It is from Don Hyrne's fascinating novel of Ireland and a story of racing horses, pretty collecns. and abiding love.
 The Co-fcaturc will offer Ailecn Pringle and Lew Cody in "Wickcd- 0css Preferred" a farce comedy.

MAKER OF TIRES
FEELS TRADE
TROUBLES
Rv R. c. FORRES

Britains artificial regulation of
rubber prices having ended this
month, American rubber com
panies are more hopeful of being
able to earn acceptable dividends
for their stockholders. No In
dustry has suffered more from
violent fluctuations in the cost of
raw material. Rubber has fluc-
tuated all the way between IL
cents pound and $1.21 a pound.
This has made rubber manu-
featuring largely ia gamble.
And the odds have proved against
the stockholders of rubber manu-.
featuring companies.
Al reader wants to know why
rubber manufacturers have not
followed the example of cotton
manufacturers, for example, by
s.hedging" against contracts made
for future deliveries of manufac-
tured goods.
The explanation is interesting.
Always Market
Hedging means covering ones
raw material requirements to fill
a contract. There is always a
market for dealing in cotton
futures: that is to say. you
can place an order at any season
of the year, at a specified time,
for delivery Of cotton at any
later date desired. Thus the cot
ton manufacturer largely elini-
mates gambling in his raw mate
rial costs.
A rubber exchange having been
established in New York, also
providing for dealing in futures"
why do not rubber manufacturers
try to protect themselves against
fluctuations in the cost of rubber?
/ put this question to a rubber
manufacturer whom / regard as
one of the ablest in the industry,
and here is his reply. which
throws light on other phases of
the rubber business:
Hedges in the rubber business
are not as good as in cotton
because the great bulk Of rubber
Is used by the tire factories and
anything that affects the tire
business Immediately affects the
rubber market; consequently you
haven't got a broad enough mar.
ket to operate In successfully.
Works Three Shifts
practically 20 per cent of the
worlds rubber is used in this
country This is not true of cot
ton. Anything that affects the
tire market in this country affects
the rubber market. The real mar
ket for rubber is London, but the
real consuming of rubber Is in
this country. Al certain amount
of hedging can be done.
A miller can hedge wheat much
easier than large tire manufac-
turer can hedge rubber. BY the
way, the rubber market is the only
market in the world that works
three shifts. We have Singapore.

By HARRY GUSACK

New questions of Federal Reserve

tomorrow by Federal Reserve Bank
governors who are meeting in quar-
terly session at the Treasury De.
partment
While no official statement has
been authorized, it is understood
that the governors will take UP the
matter of the large use of funds
for speculative purposes which is
expected to come up at the Decem-
ber session of Congress before the
Senate Banking and Currency Com
mittee, which committee is expected
20 conduct an inquiry as to the
record breaking brokers loans within
the past few months.
The governors generally We're OF
the opinion that business conditions
throughout the country are in
splendid shape and that the coming
year should prove to be one of the
best in history. The general belief
seemed to prevail that the banking
structure of the country is much
stronger than at any time since
the war. and that there will be
material reduction in the number
of banking failures in 1928 as COM
pared to previous years.
