Business Is o. K.

Weekend business for the
movie houses was encouraging
with Marie DreSsler and Polly
Moran in their co-starring feature,
Caught Snort" attracting laugh
eager crowds which Managing
director Cullen describes as close
to sensational in size. Journeys
End" got off to the expected fast
start.

VANTAGE
The Washington times., 1930-05-26

MARIE DREsSLEA book, though
very light, is thoroughly adequate
for the rollicking performance of
this redoubtable couple. The
very fact that Marie Dressler is
in any picture assures its eX-
cellence and this effort proves
no exception.
AS to Polly Moran, the bets
were not SO sure. Perhaps there
is tendency to overact, but
never again need any such
qualmS o'ertake, because this
team can't be beat. When Dress,
Ter as Mrs. Jones starts going

into Mysteries and when Moran
gets society and takes up smok-
ing as an art, they'll probably
come near collapse. One ridicu-
lousy comic and ,laugh-provoking
situation follows another, all of
which is guaranteed to insure
ripping entertainment.
Anita Page and Charles Morton
provide the love interest. The
plot deals with the winning and
losing of fortunes on the stock
market. That is all, but leave it
to Dressler and Moran to fix
things up.

Pores, Oily Skin
Had Me Frantic
Try this NeO Hollywood
Recipe for a Beautiful Skin

Out in Hollywood they have a
wonderful recipe for a lotion that
quickly reduces large pores, re-
moves blackheadS and makes the
skin nice and smooth.
The very minute you pat it on
the face it gets down deep into
the skin and cleans out the dirt.
It removes blackheadS, closes the
pores and makes the skin smooth,
goodlooking and youthfully fresh.
You'll notice, too. that the skin is
not oily or diSfigured with per
Spiration that StreakS makeup.
If you want a smooth, soft, beau
tiful skin free from large pores,
blackheadS, crows feet and oili-
ness, just get ounces of Orchard
White from your druggist and
mix it with the juice of 2 lemons.
Then you have a full quarter pint
of the finest lotion you have ever
used. Try it,
Note: During the summer months
this amazing lotion is indispensable
to the outdoor girl. 1t keeps the
skin smooth and free from treckleS,
and guards against that leGthery.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, May 26.
Buffaloing the screen players is
quite q lucrative way to earn q
livelihood. If one can get awsy
with it and plenty "oncs" seem
to.
For q while there was q chap
hereabouts who got the addresses
Of q number Of players, called
to see them at the studio or their
home, showed them a suitcase
full Of choice perfumes, discussed
cost with them. Finally said
that as he needed the money, he
would let the entire suitcase as
Sortment go for 500.
1t seemed a bargain, it was q
bargain. Only, later, when the
purchasers opened their i'm
ported perfume bottles" they dis
covered the contents to be water!
This fake salesman had merely
drenched the cork and neck Of
the bottles with the perfumes he
purported to sell. He has never
been found.

Only Just the other day, q w.
K. movie-ite received q phone
call from his manager saying a
Mr.. So7and,So wanted to talk to
him about q proposition. Was
he interested? Sure, well, this
was his telephone, He wrote it
down and called right back.
Mr.. So-&nd-So answered. He
introduced himself as q character
well-known in racing circles. Said
he just wanted to talk to Mr..
Movie Star because he admired
his work on the screen so much.
One thing leading to another, he
told him about q certain horse
in a certain big race that was a
12-to-l shot and sure to win.
To prove 1t. he said he'd Staked
SIS, 900 or so on him.
This kind Of spiel is contagious.
Mr.. Movie Star became intrigued.
1t ended by his writing a check
for a certain amount which. Mr..
So-and-So Chauffeur" picked up
at o'clock. 1t was cashed about
half an hour later-at the bank
on which it was drawn!
The funny part Of it is such
q horse actually did run when
supposed to. He did pay IL to /.
And he won! But the man who

it has never showed.

WHAT A FOOL QUESTION

Is the fisherman a tax payer in Alaska? Is the native fish erman a tax payer in Peters burg?
 A storekeeper was speaking of taxes The was paying"
 Said the fisherman, T don't own any real property" Are you a tax payer?" was the reply.
 Well, I ate breakfast in the Grand Cafe and dinner in the Alaska Cafe today. I guess the owners realize helped to pay some taxes. I bought a package of cigarettes awhile ago. I be- lieve the United States and it's states and territories get some money from it. I pay for a room in one of the rooming houses and I guess a part of the rent goes for taxes.

WHAT DID THEY LEAVE?

Four seine boats from Ana corteS- S-3O men-Were paid off S75,000 for their summers fish, ing in Icy Straits. They will in- vest their earnings in Anacor- tes. They outf1tted and supplied in Anacortes- except for a lit tie tobacco and cigarettes.
 What do they leave in Alaska |? What benefit do Alaska business men derive from these migratory birds which feed off the terri tory and leave nothing to build up for the future.
 The merchants had a bill in legislature which was passed to stop itinerant peddlers from do- ing business in the Territory, The same situation exists with foreign fishermen coming into the Territory taking jobs away from fishermen who spend all of their earnings in Alaska. Will the merchants get back of a bill to put a $25O per man tax on 30 men who will take $175,OOO out of the Territory? We will see if they will.

THE O'MALLEY WAY

When U. s. Commissioner of Fisheries, Henry O'Malley con- eiders any changes in the Alaska 1 fisheries regulations he advises the cannerS that a meeting will be held in Seattle or San Fran cisco. Through the packers me diumS the fishermen learn of the proposed hearings The packers have plenty of money to travel to such hearings while the fish erman, without money and with out organization looks on and wishes that he could be present at these hearings" to present his suggestions for the good of the industry.
 Eight at this point we charge that did a fisherman present himself at the banquet hear ing" paid for by the packers, he would find it impossible to even get look at the viands and wines and champagnes which weigh down the table.
 A hearing on fisheries regula- tionS, insofar as the Secretary of Commerce is concerned, is for the entire industry. And our honorable commissioner in his reports advises the department that he called a meeting in Se- attle on a certain date and the fishermen did not appear or care to appear.
 Recently O'Malley passed thru Ketchikan on his way south. He expressed a willingness to meet the fiShermen-but they were not there and being busy fishing for the remaining season could not be there. Had O'Malley ad- vised that on the 10th of Sep tember we guarantee that five hundred fishermen would be pre- sent with their suggestions.
 Under the Fisheries Bureaus of Oregon and Washington, every opportunity is given ALL inter ests to be given a hearing FOR THE GOOD OF THE INDUSTRY.
 Norman will arrange for the public hearing and general mo- tice will be given in advance through the newspapers"
 The state way of arriving at the proper regulation of the indus try is the democratic way. The O'Malley method is the method of a power crazy autocrat.

CAN YOU FEATURE THAT

Geoge B. Grigsby, democratic nominee for Delegate to Con lgress is going to have as a plank in his political platform-The abolishment of fish traps. Can you feature that?
 Since when has the Juneau Empire come out in opposition to the fish trap or taken any is sue with Czzar O'Malley? And can you picture Johnny Troy and Piggy" Pegues supporting the policy of trap abolishment? And Grigsby looks to the Elm pire as a publicity medium for opposition to the traps? Just how sincere is Grigsby in his in tention to abolish traps? Does it mean that the Democrats" are coming out In opposition to the present administration? Will they have any influence in such legislation. Consistency is a jewel and no one has ever ac- cused Johnny Walker, Piggy Pe- gues or George Grigsby with be- ing consistent on the fisheries question.
 Watch that platform and the men who make it, remembering their past records.

CHRONICLE ISSUES WARNING

There is a strict law against anyone Spearing or shooting sal mon in spawning streams. OW- ing to reports that thoughtless persons have needlessly killed salmon for sport in Ketchikan creek, the officials desire to warn all persons against such practices.
 The law says that fishing for commercial purposes is prohib- tied in, all streams except with hook, rod, line or spear, Provid- ed that the section shall not effect fishing for personal use or for dog feed.
 It is not our understanding of this law that even a seine is pro- hibited when fishing for private use and not for commercial pur- poses. The specific exception is provided by law to insure suf- fiicient food for residents and for their dogs.
 The bark of dogs do become a nuisance every once in awhile. They should be muzzled or given something to quiet them for all time.
