her-uttered the above quoted words.
And the tiger mother meant what
she Said-to the last syllable.
Having brought about Nero's adop-
ton by her uncle. the Emperor, as
his successor. she still pursued her
purpose. Her son was not yet En-
peror and until that eventuation
she would not slacken effort. With
that end in view, in 40 she married

about his mothers death by q ruse.
He tricked her into embarking on a

failed. for, although the boat col
lapsed, the mother escaped.
But Nero's unnatural vndictive
ness would not be denied. In q shor'

a body Of picked soldiers with orders

did.
And thus dtd the second part q

BY FILM COMPANIES
Ten Producers Accused in Federal
Court File Appeal With
Supreme Court.

Denying coercion Of theater oper-
ators, 10 Of the leading motion picture
producing companies in the United
States have appealed to the Su-
preme Court against the decision last
January of Judge Thatcher in the Fed
eral District Court in New York City,
in which he held them guilty of con-
spiracy to violate the Sherman anti
trust act
The Government brought suit charg-
ing that the moving picture firms in
Guiding aramount-Famous-La sky Cor
poration, the Metro-G oldwyn- Mayer
Distributing Corporation and the First
National Pictures. had adopted an illegal
uniform contract for leasing motion
picture films to theaters, through the
country.
It was claimed that the 10 companies
furnished approximately go per cent Of
the films exhibited and it was impos-
sible for any theater to secure enough
films without dealing with some men,
Der of the combine.
In their appeal the companies urge
that the contract and rules in question
have been approved by the Federal
Trade Commission and were adopted
pursuant to the demands of representa-
tives of the exhibitors.
The Supreme Court will be unable to
pass on the appeal until its next session
beginning in october.
