LAUGHTER NIGHT AT
 THE LIBERTY THEATRE
 THREE FOREMOST STARS

"Millionaires', the picture at the Liberty theatre tonight is a picture that goes out frankly to get laughs, and, according to all reports, it gets them in hearty measure. With Geo. Sidney, Louise Fazenda and Vera Cor don heading the cast, it has a trio of l tickling fun-makers, who have long since demonstrated that real laughs are pretty close to real tears; a trio of comedians who are above all things always human"
 The picture, suggested by E. Phil ips Oppenheim' book, "The Inevitable Millionaire" and produced under the direction of Herman Raymaker. The story concerns a Jewish tailor, whose placid, happy life is nearly wrecked on the shores of social ambition, when he suddenly comes into fortune
 George Sidney, once famed as Bizzy lazy in vaudeville, then the unforgeta- ble Potash of the Potash and Perl .mutter" series, and more recently featured on the screen in "Koshier Kitty Kelly" and "The Cohens and the Kellys", has the leading role, as the tender-hearted tailor who is trans ported into a world of hard-hearted social striving.
 Louise Fazenda, the comedienne who has blazed a bright trail in a long series of Warner pictures, ap- pears as the tailor's flint-hearted sis ter-in-law; a ruthless schemer, who leads the tailor and his wife up the golden rocks.
 ! Vera Gordon, who, since "Humor- esque", has been the Jewish mother in every picture for which her services can be obtained, appears once more in i her favorite type of role. Only this time, she is not quite so tender as be- fore. The tailor's wife in this picture lis one who gets caught in whirl wind of social ambitions and swept off her feet; who listens to the ser pent tongues of other social climbers and decides she must ditch her hus- band if she is to get on in society. 1 Nat Carr as a slicker of the Jewish social world, completes the quartette of featured comedians whom the Warmers have assembled for "Mil- 1ionairs." The love interest is sup piled by Helene Costello and Arthur Lubin, and Jane Winton appears as the woman who is hired to supply evidence for a divorce.

EMPLOYEES JOBBED
In Fake Coop Deal

New York. - Employees Of the
Johns Manville Company are at
tempting to secure judicial relief
from deal which jobbed them out
of stock in this concern that they
bought with the understanding it
would be operated on the "co-opera-
tive" plan.
Under the will Of the late Thomas
F. Manville, asbestos king, the en-
ployes purchased 10000 shares at one
half its market value
When Hiram E. Manville, brother
of the deceased, took charge of the
company, he induced the employees,
they assert, to surrender their stock
to him. Manville claimed, according
to the employees, that unfriendly in
terests were trying to gain control
of the campany and that if he were
T to run it for their benefit and with
, the cooperation his brother had de-
sired, it was necessary for him to
have their stock.
After he accumulated the stock, the
plaintiffs charge, Manville, who own
ed 10000 shares, arranged a split-up
of the shares, declared heavy cash
dividend and then sold the company's
control to J. P. Morgan & Co.
The employees find themselves with
out the stock and with no friend in
the corporation. They ask the court
to order return of their property
pr it's equivalent in money.

 Prohibition Director Maurice Campbell said the machinery in the brewery alone was valued at $1OO.- 900 and that in addition 10000 gal- Ions of high powered beer was con- fiscated. The agents also seized a truck load of alleged 5 per cent beer as it was being driven from the brewery and arrested the driver. Campbell described the secret doors of the brewery as most in, genious. He said the steel doors were faced with brick to rep resent continuance of the brick walls and that the deception was further carried out by removable section of imitation steam and wa ter pipes insulated with asbestos. The doors connected with the gar age. The brewery is capitalized al ss00,000. No action has as yet been taken against any of it's officers.

TAKE PRECAUTIONS
 AGAINST BANDITS
To Guard Road Travelled by
 Ambassador Morrow

Mexico City, July R-Military precautions have been taken to pro- tect from bandits travellers on a road that United States Ambassador Dwight w. Morrow may now be ex- pected to use frequently.
 Mir. Morrow has leased for two years a house at Cuernvaca. for va cation and weekend trips. and the army patrol against bandits has been increased on the road he must travel to reach that place.
 Cuernevaca is a beautiful town of rare climate on a road from Mexico City where there have been num- Der of bandit hold-ups, including the Kidnapping and murder of an Ameri- can tourist, Jacob Rosenthal, of New York.
 Misses Holdup
 Since Mir. Morrow has been am- bassador to Mexico he missed by a few hours a wholesale hold-up on another road between Mexico City and Puebla where he was motoring Arrangements for the Cuernevaca lease were completed for Mir. Nor row while he was in the United States and the house was made ready for use upon his return. l At the same time a new, special force of motorcycle soldiers was or dered on anti-bandit patrol duty on the Mexico City-Cuernevaca and other roads radiating from the capi- { tol, reinforcing the previous cavalry and infantry guards, which are con- tinued.
 ! Cuernevaca, while 1000 feet high, is $500 feet lower than Mexico City. It is a favorite resort for those whose nerves are frazzled by or whose lungs or heart need relief from the altitude of the capitol. AL though less than 50 miles away it is, for most automobiles four or six hour trip because of difficult mountain road which has superb scenery and abundant hiding places for outlaws. There are many steep grades and sharp turns where cars must go slowly. it is easy for bandits to stop them and to escape in the wild wooded country all around. A new road Is being built which will cut out the steep grades and, it is hoped. make bandit operations more difficult.
 Lindy Protected
 When Col. Lindbergh motored from Mexico City to Cuernevaca, during his visit here last December the road was lined most of the way with federal troops, with strong re- serves of cavalry and infantry held in. readiness at places where bandits had appeared in the past.
 Cuernevaca was a favorite resort of Cortes. the Spanish conqueror and of Maximilian, the ill-fated em' peror.
 The Cortes palace is now the CitN hall, where quick action so-callet divorces, considered of doubtful val idity in the United States, are issued 7 for hureed visitors. Cuernevac'

DO NOT PLAN TO
 HAVE THIRD PARTY
Barton Denies Intent Of Demo-
 Crats at ASheYiDe

San Antonio, Tex, July 3 LR - Publication here of reports that in- troduction of a third party move ment was contemplated at a meet ing of southern democrats at Ashe- vile, \. C., today brought state ment from Dr. Arthur J. Barton, director of extension of the South- ern Baptist convention. that noth- ing of the sort was contemplated.
 Issues Call
 Dr. Barton joined Bishop James Cannon, jr., of the Methodist Epis- copal church south in Virginia, in issuing the call for the Asheville meeting at the democratic national convention in Houston. In his state ment here, Dr. Barton said that when he joined Bishop Cannon in issuing the call. they did not speak as representatives of their church organizations, but only as individ- uals.
 II wish to state that no such movement is contemplated" Dr. ! Barton said. "The matter of attend ing the meeting will be for each democrat to decide for himself and undoubtedly it will be attended by a large number of democrats who are not willing that the 18th amend ment and it's supporting legislation shall be menaced and are not will ing that the democratic party shall | be turned over to Tammany Hall. Statement "Plain"
 The statement given out by Bishop Cannon and myself makes very plain the purpose of the meet. ing, viz: Organize for the election of the dry democratic nominees fol the senate and house of represent atives and for all state offices anl to defeat the nullificationists i'm posed by the Houston convention.
 "All of the prohibition leader were greatly pleased with the adop ton of the prohibition enforcement plank in the platform. This clearl. committed the party to a definit
 and positive course. It was exceed
 ingly unfortunate that after tn
 adoption of a dry plank a maj
 should have been nominated wh was the wettest of the wet, who nullificationist.
 Tt is also unfortunate in the eX treme and will be resented that i his telegram to the convention h
 should have sought to undo wha
 the party had done by the adoptio of the enforcement plank. ! Conscientious dry democrat will not support such a program and it is to avoid such calamit that the Asheville meeting has bee called"
 Dr. Barton said he intended 1 . repudiate the democratic presider tial nominee to support the republ can candidate.
 : The Asheville meeting was calle U for July Ii to IS.

|bYNG WILL HEAD SCOTLAND YARD
Will Control 10000 Men
 Throughout English Empire

London. July dF-Viscount Byng of Vimy, hero of Vimy ridge. and former governor general of Canada, next fall will control 2o,900 men po- licing an area of 700 square miles.
 As commissioner of metropolitan police and head of Scotland Yard, Viscount Byng will receive a salary of $15,00O year. He will succeed Sir William Hor- wood, who. has been under fire be- cause of the arrest of Sir Leo Money and Miss Irene Savidge in Hyde park. Alleged third degree methods employed by operatives of Scotland yard in questioning Miss Sayidge have been under investigation. It was stated. however, that Sir Will 1 liam's retirement had nothing to do with the case last February as he would be 60 years old in the fall. When the home secretary an- nounced Viscount Byng's appoint ment the government was asked in the house of commons whether the viscount would get another pension at the end of his period of service. ] The speaker ruled that the question was not permissible.
 Asked why an army man instead of one from the police force had been chosen, the home secretary said the government aimed at getting the best man possible.
 Though controlling large area, the metropolitan police force does not guard one square mile of Lon- don city proper. It possesses it's own police force. controlled solely by the corporation of London. The financial district is within this area.
 Viscount Byng will have associat- ed with him as deputy commissioner Rear Admiral c. R. Royds, former director of physical training in the royal navy.
