with Douglas Fairbanks in the we'll
remembered success, 1.-The Gaucho,"
sings from the screen for the first
time in her career in Paramounts

AT THE QUEEN

Every nov and then in the mad
scramble of the movies some picture
comes along that makes a star-the
Miracle Man" made several; "Sev-
enth Heaven" lifted an unknown
player from obscurity to the topmost
pinnacle of fame. Now THE Road
to Ruin, now showing at the
Queen Theater, seems destined to
elevate little Helen Foster, a COM
parative newcomr, to stardom.
9TH Road to Ruin" is a startling
frank and up to the minute pictur-
ization Of the troublesome question
of Juvenile Delinquency, and, as
Sally Garfield, the innocent school
girl, who drifts unguided down the
primrose path to destruction, the
lovely flower-like Helen reaches ev-
cry hear with the poignant beauty
of her work. Another remarkable
Characterization is rendered by
sparkling, vivacious Virginia Roye
as the wise Kid who leads Sally
astray. Others of especial note in
this remarkably well cast picture are
Grant Withers, Tommy Carr
CMary's boy), Charles Miller and
Florence Turner.

CURRY HEADS
TAMMANY HALL
Passing of Influence OF AL
Smith Seen I'm Selection
OF His Opponent

NEW YORK, April 24.-(P)-Se-
lection of John F. Curry. opponent
Of Alfred E Smith. as head Of Tam
many hall, was interpreted by news
papers today as marking the pass
ing of the influence Of the former
governor.
The election of curry, a district
leader, to succeed George w. Oh
vany, resigned, also was described as
a victory for Mayor James j. Wal
ker, which has established him as
the dominating influence in Tam
many with his denomination as
sured.
The New York Times said.
"Mr. Curry's election is believed
to mark the passing Of the influence
of former Governor Smith and the
abandoning Of thought of further
excursions into national politics, the
last of which ended in the defeat
Of Mr.. Smith for president last fall"
The World said:
cat least for the moment Al Smith
has been repudiated by the organiza-
ton whose reputation he furnished
almost single-handedly. Mayor Wal
ker rules the roost. And Tammany
suffering from a bad Ease Of over
confidence, is about to see what it
can do without the service of re-
formers 'interlopers,' 'high-hatters'
and outsiders

broken trails where no white man
had ever penetrated. Then one day,
in a small town on the Mexican bor-
der, he meets and falls in love
with Lola Salazar, portrayed by
Lupe VeleZ, the daughter of an aris-
tocratic Don. From this point on
the picture tells an amazing story
of tempestuous love, sacrifice and
an almost unconquerable desire on
the part Of the Kentuckian for free
dom; freedom to again roam the
mountainous country with only stars
to talk to. There is a powerful and
highly satisfactory climax that
should please audiences everywhere.
AS the alluring, devoted Lola,
Lupe Velez is fascinating. AS the
adventure-loving mountaineer, Gary
Cooper is always convincing. AS the
rough, coarse pal who tries to win
Cooper away from his young bride,
Louis Wolheim is the real thing. AS
members of the supporting cast,
Constantine Romanoff. Michael Va
witch, Ann Brody and Russell Co
Jumbo are all that could be desired.
AS the director, Victor Fleming has
handled a delicate theme with rare
skill. Wolf Song" is now playing at
the Arcadia.

Two dynamite bombs which po-

mate. but this indicates the posi-
bilities for damage to the Valley.
"A woman orchardist in Mercedes
in whose grove an i~nfestation was
found declared she would not eat
any more grapefruit. This is an eX-
ample Of how other people will feel.
THE government inspectors
should be empowered to enter a
place and destroy any plant which
might possibly menace the citrus in
dustry of the Valley by harboring a
fly.
IT want to grow old gracefully in
the shade of my orchard and IN
less this infestation is properly han
died I may be denied this privilege.
We growers must tighten up-we
must give more whole-hearted CO.
operation to the inspectors. There
are millions invested in this industry
in the Valley and investment must
be protected"
81 cannot believe any but an
enemy Of the Valley will refuse to
cooperate to the fullest extent with
the inspectors in their campaign
against the fly" said L. E. Snavely.
If we lose the citrus industry we
have lost the foundation on which
the Valley is founded. These in
spectors are the best friends We
have; let's treat them as such"
Host fruit trees represent the
most urgent phase of the campaign
against the fly, in the opinion Of
M. r. Hall, county attorney. He
reported there are four premises in
Brownsville where there are host
fruit trees. Owners Of two Of these
places have agreed to clean up, he
said.
The office Of the county attor-
ney intends to back the inspectors
and the people in this fight" Hall
said.
The idea of a quarantine against
Florida fruit was first introduced
to the meeting by H. H. Banker,
grower Of Brownsville. Florida
fruit and trees are given open en-
try to the Valley in spite of the
fact that all Valley fruit has been
barred from that state for many
years." he said. 1--WE do not know
what pest or disease they may send
to us. Now is the time to ask for
a quarantine against the trees and
fruit Of that state. Our own legis-
lature will not refuse us.

cedes. Mr.. Rothrock thought too
much vas being said in the papers
about the presence of the fly in the
Valley. He expressed a desire to
cooperate with the inspectors and
to do all in the power of Valley in
terests to prevent an embargo be-
ing placed on Valley fruit by other
states.
George Morrison of Mercedes
agreed with MIR. Rothrock that too
much publicity had been given to
the presence of the fly.
Doubt Extension Mistake
Glen White of Donna expressed
a doubt whether the extension Of
one month in the shipping season
was a mistake, as other speakers
had declared. He said finding Of
the flies had convinced skeptics
that there really was a fly in the
Valley which might ruin the citrus
industry and this would result in
a more thorough cleanup.
Many other talks were made
along the same lines.

Stewart said, it is found necessary to not consider any more applica- tions nor to receive vouchers cov- ering aid to prospectors until the last half of the biennium opens on April 1. Tn this manner, the Commissioner will find it possible to avert another deficit in the fund such as was experience in the 1927-29 period.
 MT. Stewart said his office would probably prepare and issue before the resumption of payments under the Act a revision of existing regulations which will be mailed to all agents throughout the Ter ritory. These will be available for those interested before March 3l. They probably will change the in- depreciation of some phases of the Act in order to insure adequate funds necessary to take care of the most urgent cases.
 It also may be found necessary to allot specific, limited amounts to various sections of the Territory If this is done, the allotments will be governed by the experience gained in the last three years ad- ministration of the fund.
