QUESTION MARKS
RECORD PLEASING

That the army transport plane,
Question Mark beat all records
for continuous flight came as no
surprise to aviation experts and
others who know something of the
Fokker product. 1t may be that
there are other planes of different
design that can equal the Ques-
ton Marks performance, $50
hours in the air. but the fact re-
mains-the Fokker ship has done
it.
Among those keenly interested
in watching almost hourly the
record of the big transport were
officials and operating executives
of the National Parks Anyways,
Inc, because Fokker ships form
the major part of that company's
equipment for carrying mail and
passengers between Salt Lake
and Great Falls Similarly hun
dreds of persons along the Ma
tional Parks line, in Odgen, Poca-
tello, Butte, Helena, Great Falls,
Missoula and other places were
interested.
All were uniformly satisfied
with the Question Mark. Enthusi-
astically satisfied. The six-day
gruelling test only goes to
strengthen their faith in this
plane and among National Parks
Always officials there was a
double satisfaction as it's per-
Torrance placed the stamp of
approval on their selection Of the
Fokker super-universals to start
with, and gave confidence in con
tinuing the use of the Fokker type
as advanced models are designed.
While the Question Mark flew
over a stated course the while it
did not encounter much bad
weather, nevertheless the test was
a hard one. With the super
u~niversals on the Great Falls-Salt
Lake line flying over mountain
ranges, having to take winter
weather as it comes, with 100 per
cent performance, the Fokker
stock naturally stands high-add-
ing the two performances and the
result is proof that the National
Parks made no mistake in adopt
ing the big, powerful swift six
passenger ships.

THE ENEMY TALE
OF WARS EFFECT
TELLS VIVID STORY OF PRICE
WOMEN MUST PAY AS
SIDE ISSUE

War and its horrors have been
translated to the screen in many
| forms; the surge and thunder of
battle has been depicted in great
spectacle; the side of the soldier
told in 1.-THE Big Parade" but to
Lillian Gish has fallen the task Of
telling the side of those who, per-
haps, suffer most but whose side
has never before been presented
the side of the women who face
starvation, grief and moral disin-
tegration as a side issue in the
struggles of nations.
Such is her message in ''The
Enemy" Metro -Goldwyn-Mayer's
graphic depletion of Claiming Pol
locks famous stage DRAMA
story of wal away from the battle
field; a story of the hatreds,
hysteria and breaking down of
human relationships that follow
like a pestilence in the wake of
war propaganda.
On the stage the story was held
the dramas greatest gift to the
cause of peace.
AS a vehicle for Miss Gish the
picture, coming to the Liberty
Theatre Thursday and Friday, is
one of the most gripping plays the
famous star has ever appeared in.
It presents a new Lillian Gish-
a Lillian Gish in a modern role, in
modern garb, and in intensely
modern story. 1t tells of the af-
terwar effects of international
hatreds in a powerful dramatic
theme At times the star rises
almost sublime heights in the
graphic portrayal of the tragic
PAUL..
Fred Niblo directed the picture,
with a notable cast. Ralph Forbes
plays Carl, the husband, and
Ralph Emerson the English lover.
Frank Currier and George Fawcett
have two splendidly-handled char
acter roles as the old fathers of
the couple, and Karl Dane and
Polly Moran supply comedy relief
generously and well.

LIQUOR SOURCES
DRYING Up, CLAIM

Washington, Jana. 16.-Sources
of supply of illicit liquor are gradu-
ally being closed and the ninth
anniversary of prohibition today
finds marked improvement in in
dustrial and social conditions as
compared with pre-prohibition
days, Assistant Secretary of Treas
ury Seymour Lowman says.
Reviewing conditions of the
ninth anniversary of prohibition,
Lowman said the need of further
cooperation from local officers is
apparent.
"After all, Uncle Sam cannot be
the village policeman" he said.
Liquor cases of this type involve
the intimate and immediate well
fare of the people around them
and the good order of the com
munity in which they live Such
matters should be taken are of
by intelligent law enforcing local
officials"
The country, Lowman declared,
is going forward with prohibition
not backward. He added, I'VE
are not willing to lose the advan-
ces made industrially, economical
ly, socially and hygienically as the
result of the passage of the 18th
amendment. In the last analysis,
he concluded, the citizens of any
locality through their votes are
responsible for the local official
and whether they are strong or lax
in their program of law enforce
ment.

WONDERFUL BUILDING
MATERIAL DISCOVERED

S-kyscrapers looming 125 stories
high, a result made possible by a
new building material just devel-
oped, are forecast in a bulletin
just issued by the American
Ceramic society. This mystery
material, developed by a young
Chicago scientist, is made of clays,
chemically and mechanically pro-
cessed. 1t will be shown for the
first time at the American Ger
annie exposition, the first ever
held, which opens in Chicago on
February 4.
This remarkable new building
material, according to the bulletin,
is lighter than water and will not
absorb moisture One piece of it
has been heated to $3.50 degrees
more than twenty times and
plunged into ice-cold water after
each heating. without effect. That
heat would melt steel. 1t is utter
ly fireproof, everlasting, has re-
markable heat insulating values,
will bear heavy loads, is capable
of taking enamels and can be
produced in every possible color.
Owing to it's light weight, be-
cause it will thus relieve much
stress, the small group of scien-
fists who are familiar with it say
it will reduce building costs in
large steel buildings enormously.
The American Ceramic exposition
will draw $500 men in the ceramic
industry to Chicago and twelve
organizations, every one directly
identified with the industry, will
hold national or state meetings
in this city the week of the ex-
position.
More than S250,OO0 worth of
Americas finest chinaware, glass,
pottery, stoneware and art pro-
ducts, besides building materials
will be shown. The exposition
will be open to the public.

NEW YORK, November 21.-The
following is today's summary Of all i'm
portant corporation news prepared by
Standard Statistics Co., Inc, New York,
for the Associated Press.
News Trend.
The midweek trade reviews indicate
that the steel and other heavy indus
tries have shown further recession in
the past week. This is merely a con-
tinuance of the movement begun about
eight weeks ago, rather than being a
reflection of the recent break in stocks.
The break has had the effect of more
cautionary purchasing by consumers,
but has not resulted in any material
cancellation of orders. Operations of
the steel industry are now down to
II per cent, about per cent below
previous week and 10 per cent below
year ago. United States Steel is at
70 and the Independents at 10, COM
pared with rs and 70, respectively,
week ago and 80 and 80 per cent a
year ago. Companies devoting largest
portion of output to automotive indus
try have shown the greatest contraction.

BY JAPANESE PREMIER
~ the Associated Press.

OSAKA, Japan, November 21.-Of-
fetal announcement was made todo '
the gold embargo would be lifted jan
uary IL.
simultaneously with the announce
nent of lifting of the gold embargo the
premier and finance minister issued
statements dealing with the subject.
Premier Hamaguchi explained that
precautions had been taken to ensure
no i'll effects would follow, and en-
phasized the necessity of Japanese con-
tinuing the practice of economy. He
stated that the government had amassed
reserves Of specie amounting to $780,
100000 yen Approximately $15000O, :
000) and had also contracted for credits
in London and New York for further
10000 900 yen.
The minister of finance discussed the
improved economic situation of the
country, and asserted that the govern
nent intended to refrain from regulat-
ing exchange after removal of the en-
barge. 1t proposed to leave this to the
Bank of Japan, and to adopt the prin-
ciple OF maintaining no specie reserve
in its possession.
Foreign banking circles appeared con-
fident that everything would go
smoothly, and no i'll effects are an
ticipated.
