A HARLINGEN

Dynamite" opening a two day
engagement at the Harrington Ar
cadia theatre today, is packed with
what its title indicates. 1t not only
has something TO interest every
type Of picturegoer. but it supplies
a mass effect that is startling and
absorbing. 1t is intensely colorful,
packed with glamour and thrills
and leading up TO one Of the most
thrilling climaxes ever devised fol
any photoplay.
It Is scarcely fair TO reveal the
basic theme on which Dynamite
is based. because 1t is so strikingly
different from any other picture
plot that patrons have a right to gel
the whole story as a surprise on
visiting the theatre. 1t is sufficient
to say that the story deals with a
young society girl and her relation
ship to a polo playing diletante and
a stalwart. two listed coal miner.
The climatic scenes, which are said
10 have taken six weeks 70 make,
occur in a mine a thousand feet IN
der the earth.
Charles Bickford as the coal min
er, Kay johnson as the society girl,
Cynthia Crothers. and the reooubt-
able Conrad Nagel in the part OF
the diletante, contribute some OF
the best performances the talking
screen-or the silent-has ever seen.
Bickford and Miss Johnson came
70 the coast from the Broadway
and 1t is TO be hoped that
hollywood will see much more OF
hem.

TINE NEW FORD CARS, shown last Tues
i day for the first time, have been enthu-
siastically received throughout the country.
Everywhere it is realized that now, more
than ever, the new Ford is ''value far
above the price"
One of the distinguishing features of the
new Ford bodies is the carefully planned har-
mony of every detail of design. From the new
deep radiator to the tip of the curving rear
fender there is an unbroken sweep of line
a flowing grace of contour heretofore thought
possible only in an expensive automobile.
LOOKING at the new Ford you are impressed
instantly by its smart style and compact, sub
stantial sturdiness. For there is about it
certain character or personality which sets
it apart and gives it fresh and lasting
beauty. You will take real pride in this
beauty just as you find real thrill in
the alert, capable performance of the car.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-01-06

All of the new Ford bodies are finished in
variety of colors, with new stripping and new
streamline moulding. Interiors have more
leg room. Closed cars have adjustable front
seats. The smaller wheels, with larger tires,
bring the car closer to the road, with con-
sequent gain in riding comfort and safety
An additional feature of importance is the
Rustless Steel used for the radiator shell,
head lamps, hub caps, cowl finish strip
and tail lamp.

Savings and Time
Deposits Increase

DALLAS, July 7-Continued in
crease OF time and savings deposits
and a marked decrease in loans TO
member banks are two of the MOTTO
able features of the monthly bust
ness summary Of the Federal Re-
serve bank for the 18th district. The
report Of the bank on finance says.
During the first 10 days of May
the demand for Federal Reserve
bank credit continued the expansion
which was evident throughout April,
but during the next few DAYS there
was a substantial decline. After the
middle Of the month, however, there
was a steady growth in Federal Re-
serve bank loans TO member banks
and or May 81, these loans stood at
se,452, 615 as compared to S8.i65,872
a month earlier, and SIS ,900 $50 on
MAY 81, 1929. The borrowings Of
reserve city banks have remained
at a law level and largely account
for the smaller volume OF Federal
Reserve bank loans this season as
compared to a year ago. Country
bank borrowings declined slightly
toward the middle Of May due TO
the slackening demand for credit
from customers because Of the stop
page of farm work but since that
time the demand for funds from
country banks has shown a gradual
expansion. Total loans 70 member
banks has risen to $l0.647,450 on
June Is, which compared 70 S22,-
631,261 on the same date last year.
There were 1913 banks borrowing
from the Federal Reserve on May
81, as compared to l67 banks on
April 80, and so banks on May 81,
1929.
Due to the increased borrowings
Of member banks. total bills held
by this bank rose from Sl4.6lo-309.02
on April 80 to SIS. sos ,368.89 on May
81"
