cording to Buster Keaton, comedy
star, whose latest talkie. Dough
Boys" will open Wednesday at the
Queen Theatre.
The law Of contrasts is largely
the reason" stated the Metro-G Gold
wyn-Mayer comedian in a recent
interview. IF you tell a simple
love story by itself. it may be nice
but not necessarily effective. But
tell 1t in a background Of battles
and the spectacle Of an army in
action, and it becomes a vital thing
as part OF the bigger whole. This
was, for instance. the secret OF the
romance in The Big Parade" and
IL works equally as well In comedy.
Its really part of the psycho-
logical truth that love is always
more interesting when there IS
some danger attached TO it. Women
love to be fought for and protected
and much OF the patriotic fervor
c. wars Is based on the fact that
men are safeguarding the country
and indirectly the home and the
women folk"

Party Opposes New Judge
Offices in Lake, St. Joseph
and Allen Counties.

GARY. Ind, Sept. 13.--The Lake
county Democratic central commit
tee may seek a court test of the
legality of creation of the new pro-
bate and juvenile judgeships in
Lake, Allen and st. Joseph counties,
as the result of the new census
figures, it was revealed at a party
meeting here at which it was de-
cided not to make nominations for
those posts.
Frank r. Martin, Democratic
chairman, announced that he will
seek an injunction to keep the
names of Republican candidates for
the two new judgeships off the bal
lot, should Republicans nominate.
Lake Democrats expressed opositlon
to creation of the two posts on the
contention that no necessity exists,
and that they would provide jobs to
add to the tax burden.
Republicans are divided on the
question of nominations for the
judgeshipS. One group sides with
the Democrats, and the other favors
making the nominations, but is
split upon candidates.
