 SHOWING AT PALACE

 "The Cheerful Fraud" however, is all concerned with England and Denny's name in the picture is Sir Michael Fairlie.
 Gertrude Olmstead. who played opposite Denny in California Straight Ahead" one of the most popular pictures, portrays the fem mine lead. Emily Fitzroy, Ger trude Astor, Otis Harlan, Charles Gerard and others are prominent in the supporting cast

some Democrats Want Her As Sec
ond Place Choice On
Party'S Ticket

Washington, June 90 CUP)--For
the first time in American politics
woman has attained a position to
command consideration as a vice
presidential candidate for a major
party.
Democrats departing for Houston
have disclosed that former Governor
Nellie Tayloc Ross, Wyoming dry
and campaigner for Governor AL
fred Smith in his successful precon-
ycntion campaigns in California and
Wyoming. is being considered as
Smiths running-mate.
Information here indicates, how
ever. that Cordell Hull OF Tennessee
and Joseph r. Robinson of Arkansas
are the most likely candidates for
the vice presidency If Smith is NOM
mated as expected.
The democrats will have UNDER
taken one drastic innovation In
politics if Smith. a Catholic wet. is
nominated for the presidency. Many
leaders believe nomination of a
woman for vice president a logical
step in the near future, but II is
doubted that the mocratic slate
this year could stand so many in
novations.
Mrs. Ross was one OF the first
western democrats 10 join the Smith
group in the present campaign. She
has worked for him effectively. and
is expected to be a leader in the
campaign If he is the nominee. Mrs.
Ross. who succeeded to the Wyom-
ing governorship when her husband.
