until he lands 'em. And in while
the City Sleeps" you have a gun
battle between the police and the
crooks which makes most OF them
we have had on the screen appear
like a one-ring circus instead OF
a Touring affair. Polly Moran as
the keeper of the roomlng house
where the detective lives gets lots
of fun out of the part. She makes
a grand comedy foil for CLANCY.
CLANCY has two leading women,
we might say, in this one. Anita
Page is cast as a girl who fell in
love with young chap who was
going with the wrong crowd. Anita
loves the boy and the detective de-
cides to try and make both go
straight. To do this he catches the
boy robbing a warehouse and the
leader of the gang had planned his
death. CLANCY saves him and sends
him out of town. To save the girl
from the gag leader the detective
places the girl in his rooming house.
Of course. he falls in love with her
There was big difference in their
ages, but the girl decides to marry
him. Then the boy friend returns.
He has reformed and made good.
The detective discovers that the
girl does not love him and he gives
her back to the boy.
Sentimental ending, but Miss
Moran and CLANCY give the end
ing the comedy touch. SO much so
that you are really thankful for once
that happy endings are fashionable
nowadays.

IRISH PRESIDENT
PICTURES FREE
STATE IN N. Y.

NEW YORK, Feb. l 49-Solid foun-
dations, constitutionally, information
ally and economically, have been laid
down for the Irish Free State since
1921 upon which future generations
can build "a worthy edifice," Will
liam T. Cosgrave, Free State execu-
tive, declared tonight. Speaking at
: banquet rendered in his honor by the
mayors committee for the reception
of distinguished guests, Mr. Cosgrave
tsaid the principles OF democracy enun-
ciated by this country's great states
men formed the basis of the Irish
Free State constitution.
In describing the functioning OF his
government and its civil service, he
said:
1--WE make no religious distinctions.
Freedom of worship is guaranteed,
We inquire Of no man his faith"
Mr.. Cosgrave described the reor-
ganization of government machinery
in his country since the establish
ment of the Free State, and the
progress that had been made along
the lines of education, public works,
and agriculture.
Touching on finances, he said tie
Free States national debt is at pres
ent $38 per capita, or approximately
one years revenue, and taxation has
been reduced from $3.50 to $3.50
per capita. The Free State now faces
the future with a. balanced budget
and stable currency, he said
The Irish statesman said that the
encouragement he and the members
of his official party had received from
this visit to the United States 'will
give us an immense impetus" He
would take back to Ireland, he said,
''the most pleasant remembrances OF
all the courtesies we have received
at the hands of the government and
people of the United States"
Back in New York for a three-day
visit, Mr.. Cosgrave today plunged into
the busy round of functions that are
planned to take place unremittingly
almost until the moment he sails fer
home at 3 q. M, Saturday.
Mr.. Cosgrave was still suffering from
slight cold contracted several DAYS
ago, and he appeared somewhat
nervous as result of the railrcad
mishap in Canada, when the locomo-
tive drawing his special train was de-
rallied
