NEW YORK, June 12.-Flo Zieg-
field, original glorifier of the Amer
lean girl, believes there's too much
dirt and nekedness" in present day
revues and that the tired business
man has grown a little more weary
than usual in gazing upon nudity
in the theater.
For those reasons, Ziegfeld said
today. he intends to abandon pro-
duction of revues and also may
suspend his famous FollieS.
THE revues of late are nothing
more than dramatized dirty stories,
which, in pre-prohibition days,
found their origin in barrooms. In
theatrical parlance we call them
'blackouts,' said ziegfeld today.
THAT is why consider it dis
grace to be associated with a revue
producer at the present time.
Unless the Follies can be dis
tinguishel from the current con-
ception Of the revue, I shall aban-
don them as I have the revue"

Man Asks $4,000 for Leap From
Burning Car.

Suit for $4,000 damages was filed
in superior court five today by Har-
vey B. Fleming against the Indian
apolis Street Railway Company for
injuries he received when he leaped
from the burning vestibule of an
Illinois street car Sept. 4, 1928.
Fleming, the suit alleged, was a
passenger on the car going to the

out. He leaped from window, his
head striking the pavement.
The complaint contends that the
car was crowded and that defective
wiring caused the fire.

In his note. the author, Temple
Ellis states, MY share in the pro-
duction Of the following pages has
been limited to casting the abun-
dant material supplied into a form
that should be easily readable. To
that extent I accept all response
bility. Regarding subject-matter, I
have been at pains to avoid the least
variation from the account Of the
affair as it was given to me, even
where some additional effect might
have easily been obtained thereby -
That note gives the reader the
idea that we are considering the
strange goings-on in THE Incon-
slstent Villains as an actual hap
pening.
That thought is increased in its
effect by Sir Edmund Kings note.
King assures you in his preliminary
statement that after a great deal
Of elaboration and consultation
with all concerned I have decided
to offer to the public this authentic
account Of series of recent re-
markable events that is still the
subject of discussion"
He also states that under these
circumstances the lady. who is
chiefly COZ ,erned, has given her
consent to the publication of this
memoir"
And King gives us another in
teresting bit of probable authentic
background when he states in his
note: MY task has been rendered
easier by the recent demise of
gentleman who once served in the
Indian army, and by the good
natured permission granted by a
prominent member Of the Labor
party to refer freely to his part in
the story"
That Labor reference is a WOW
since the Labor party is now ac-
tually in control Of the British gov
eminent.
The story takes on a heavier
aspect because several footnotes in
the novel refer to actual events in
England Also the book contains
sketch maps that show the layout
for several Of the big scenes of the
story.
Besides being tremendously well
written, The Inconsistent Villains"
is unique is that there are really
three definite and distinct plots
which eventually merge into one

did not get wise until I reached
page 272 of the 284 pages of the
novel.
AS usual I refrain from telling
the story or giving away the plot.
It is my opinion that The In

81 and is published by E. P. Dutton
& Co.. Inc. that here is one prize
winning novel that lives up to his
distinction.

WOMEN AND POLITICS

Women are becoming of ever-increasing importance
in politics They serving in all but 10 of the
state legislatures recent survey disclosed and eight
OF their sex occupy seats in Congress-.
The old theory that politics is game meant for
men alone seems o>have been blasted and women no
longer remain at home and let the steer the ship
of government. =,
With their clubs, political organizations and un-
paralleed willingness to work for acause women have
become OF vast Importance in every election whether
Is in q tiny hamlet presidential race Women have
become main arms in both the major parties
Unhampered by politcaS alliances, in most in
stances the successful candidates are able to
come into office with minds and sincere desire
to improve their government.
But 1t will be interesting to note what happens when
these women have been in office number of years
when they realize support of party organizations
means favors in return.
Many men have entered politics with the highest
ideals and defyng the political powers But in the end
many of them turn to the easy way of staying in
politics-trading favor for favor and voting like all
good party men expected to vote.
We hope-and yet afraid to predict t-that
women will be lot more stubborn when the political
bosses crack their whips.

Now in the woods around Uncle
Wiggily's bungalow were many
birds, bugs and animals, and they
made many noises. Some sang, some
buzzed and others, like jolly faT
pigs, grunted.
At first little Katy did not pay
much heed to the noises of the
woods and fields. But one day she
wandered off by herself and pretty
soon she heard what sounded like

saying; Drink your teal
"Oh, l'll drink tea all right if

had a cup Of tea ready for her. And
as Katy hoped along she heard an
other voice saying:

Again, though she did not know
it, this was bird singing: "Tweet

1t used to be that announcement
of Barnum and Bailey coming to
town set all the youngsters and
many Of the grown-ups into thrills
of delight, but now Karl Dane and
George X. Arthur holds the spot
light for fun.
These two movie stars, whose every
picture has been riot of fun, come
to Fox Airdome tonight only in their
latest release, .'China Bound" The
giant Dane and the runty Arthur
get into more difficulties on a trip
to China and after they land there
than any two normal men could sur
vive.
Dane is husky fireman aboard a
vessel. Arthur is madly in love with
a girl whose father frowns on him
and takes the girl off to China with
Arthur unwittingly getting aboard
ship as stowaw:sy where he and
the fircmen join; forces, the latter
being in love with the girl s maid.
The attempts Of the pair to get
their fair ladies', in spite of pafen-
tai objection, Chinese brigands and
revolutions, as well as American
military authority, provide the
comedy for the picture, with laugh
in every situation.
Polly Moran, veteran of the screen
and always good for flock of
laughs, is seen as Danes sweet;
heart. Josephine Dunn, pretty and
petite, plays opposite Arthur.
There is not dull moment in
