watching closely the trend toward or

Adam McMullen, Republican. announced
Yesterday he will favor as a presidential
candidate the man who stands for
agricultural equality.
With his declaration Gov. McMullen
urged the name OF Secretary Herbert

a means of testing the Nebraska senti-
ment on farm relief.

Mullen said. Il am not for any candi-
in the form of loans to farmers or
outright gifts to the farmer.
Secretary Hoover" said the gov
ernor, lis known to be opposed to the
farm legislation represented by the
McNary- -Haugen bill and supported
unanimously by the Nebraska delega-
tion in both the House and the Senate.
Senator Norris Is in favor OF such
legislation.
with Secretary Hoover's name on
s:le preferential ballot in Nebraska
the lines would be clearly drawn ana
the people would have chance to ex-
press their desires as to which delega-
ton they would want to represent them
at the national convention. Former
Gov. Frank O. Lowden's name will not
appear ON the preferential ballot for
the reason that Senator George w.
Norris represents his views on the agri-
cultural question and he would not
think OF opposing him in this Slate.
McNfullen said he would seek farm
relief even to the extent OF voting Tor
a Democrat.

LAURA IA PLANTE
 IN FINE STRAND FILM

A fascinating, exciting story of the upper strata of society in England isl occupying the screen of the Liberty theatre where Butterflies in the Rain" is playing tonight only.
 To, Laura La Plante goes grateful praise for a perfect characterization of the English sister to our famous beautiful dimples, her blonde hair and Ameican flapper Laura with her her sparkling live eyes takes another step up the ladder of popular acclaim for her work in this picture.
 She has been leaping forward at greatly accelerated speed during the past year and this picture presents her at her most graceful, her most beautiful, and shows her to be the yivacious actress We have always known her to be.
 James Kirkwood, as the staid lover, gives natural characterization, for which he, too, deserves praise. Kirk wood is especially good in this type of role and is the kind that girls wor- ship-strong, virile, and lead only by the highest ideals of action.
 Edward sloman did an excellent piece of directing and gets this mon- th's laurel wreath for his efforts to- ward the betterment of motion pie ture.
