WHAT'S ON AT THE sHow2

Chicago after Midnight" a vivid and startling melodrama of the Chicago underworld, will be the leading offering at the picture show Sunday even- ing. Combined with a gripping love story, the picture unfolds a fascinating tale of a youth trapped in the tolls of gang sters and racketeers, whose plots and revels rush to a thrill-packed climax of roaring dramatic moments which leave the spectator breathless.
 The program will be rounded out by one of those famous Mack Sennett comedies filled with laughs and pretty girls, entitled Masked Mamas.

CANADA NEARS PACT
WITH SOVIET RUSSIA

Ottawa = (FP)-An admission
that the Canadian government is like
ly to recognize Soviet Russia soon
was brought by the statement of H.
J. Mackie, Ontario lumber baron and
ex-member of Parliament, upon his
return from trip to the Soviet
Union.
Mackie publicly said that he had
definite information that the Cana
dian government was contemplating
renewal of trade relations with the
Soviet republic. This caused J. S.
Wordsworth, Labor Party house lead
er, to ask the government what steps
were being taken.
Premier Mackenzie King answered:
IT am unable to say more to my hon
orable friends than that the govern
ment is giving consideration to the
matter"
Press dispatches from London say
that Mackie's statement has "caused
perturbation. A number of British
industrialists are reported going to
Russia to investigate trade prospects.
The London Express (owned by Lord
Beaverbrook, a Canadian) urges the
Baldwin government to abandon its
present attitude, because it is costing
Britain a very considerable loss in
trade"

The decay of England as the manu-
featuring center of the world is no.
where more evident than in the fall
ing market for it's cotton goods. Ac-
cording to the u S. department of
commerce, British exports of cotton
yarn in 1928 fell 1870 short of the
1913 oversee shipments while exports
of cotton cloth were down 1870 COM
pared with prewar. Growing hostility
to British imperialism, coupled with
the rapid expansion of industrialism
even in the more backward regions of
the world, is sapping the vitality of
British industry by drying up its mar
kets.
Meanwhile official figures at the
end of February place the number of
unemployed in Great Britain at l.
458, 900, jump of 115,49 The con-
sentative government attempts to
solve the problem without drastic
modification of the old capitalist sys-
tenn are apparently proving a costly
failure.
British exports of cotton yarn in
1929. according to the report, amount
ed to 169,212,000 pounds compared
with 210,090,OOO pounds in 1913. Elk
ports of British cotton cloth have
fallen from 7,075,552,000 yards in
1913 to ,866,592,OOO yards in 1928.
'The prosperity of the British cot
ton manufacturing industry" says
the report depends upon its ability
to export from 80 to 900 of its pro
duction. In postwar years the indus,
try has met severe competition il
many markets which formerly were
large consumers of British cotton yar1

ANTITRUST
LAWS
By MERRYLE STANLEY
RUKEYSER

(CopyrIght. 1929. Universsl Service. Inc.
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-The in.
creasing sentiment among big
business leaders for moderniza.
ton OF the antitrust laws Is gradu.
ally leading to Qualification Of
public opinion on the subject.
As might be expected, the Sher.
man antitrust act of 1890 and the
Clayton acts of 1918 are not with.
out defenders. Amos Pinchot,
traditional critic. of big business,
recently issued warning to lib.
erals that an attempt would be
made in the next administration to
weaken the antitrust legislation,
Abram F. Myers, chairman of the
Federal Trade Commission. which
in recent years has become a
gentler critic of business. is the
latest to put himself on record as
saying a few good words in behalf
of the antitrust legislation now on
the Federal statute books. He con.
tends that the Sherman act is not
a hindrance. but a help. to mod.
ern business. He points out that
a new Interpretation of the law
has brought it up to date.
What are the hardships i'm
posed on American business by
the antitrust laws which have
given rise to so much clamor
for the repeal" Mr.. Abrams asks.
in the Journal of the American
Bankers Association. Are they
real or are they imaginary? Ger
tainly the antitrust laws do not
cramp the normal orderly ex-
pansion of business. They do
not prevent the consolidation of
independent units for the pro-
motion of efficiency of produc-
tion and economy of distribu-
tion.
The Supreme Court has twice
held that the Sherman act does
not prohibit the merging of COM
peting plants for sound business
reasons, regardless of the size
of the resulting combination. so
long as the power acquired Is
not used to oppress competitors
or to exploit the public. Section
seven of the Clayton act forbids
the acquisition of the whole or a
part of the capital stock of an
other corporation similarly en-.
gagged, where the effect may be
to substantially lessen competi-
tion between them. but does not
apply to a case where the physi-
cal assets. and not the stock,
are acquired.
