 TONIGHT; 'KIKp
 BEGINS SUNDAY
Mary Pickford Will Star in New Play Tomorrow
 at Capitol h

With Arizona" featuring Laura La Plate, showing for the last times tonight at the Capitol thea re, "Kikiy' starring Mary Pickford, will headline the new bill tomorrow the first presentation being at the afternoon matinee 2
 Arizona" has an age-old appeal to men, women and children In addition to a powerfully drama tic love story, it has plenty of &C., tion. The football scenes in par ticular are realistic and thrilling.
 An added attraction on tomor- rows program will be 'Back Field Play a short football picture from the All-America Sports Series, for which the management of the Cap itol theatre has just contracted with Christy Walsh, producer Of the series. Back Field Play" was shot at the University of Notre Dame, near South Bend, Ind. It shows this years Notre Dame foot ball team exemplifying back field plays. Hunk Anderson, Notre Dame coach, tells how Notre Dame has built many of its back field com- binationS.
 harum- Skarum Girl
 Tn "Kiki' Miss Pickfcrd cnacts the title role. Kiki represents a harum-scarum, gamin-like imp, who aspires to be a great lady, a great actress, and to win the heart of the manager of the company in which she has small part. This outline of the part is but the barest indication, a slight sketch Of the full-length portrait of Kiki that Miss Pickford has added to her gallery of charming heroines.
 The famous play, as adapted by Sam Taylor, celebrated as screen writer and director, is vehicle for laughter. No matter how serious the situation may be for the char acters involved, the complications and the dialogue as well, are al ways funny to the audience.
 True Test of Comedy
 The play stands the true test of light comedy in that the situations and comic relief are sustained by solid groundwork of dramatic in cident, through which the heart interest runs as a gleaming thread.
 The settings, comprising among others, a theatre stage and @ mag rificent private apartment, are luxuriously and lavishly produced from original designs by William Cameron Menzies, the supervising art director.
 A well balanced cast of distin- guished players has been assembled by Miss Pickford and Director Tay- Tor. It is headed by the popular Reginald Denny. Among the others are Joseph Cawthorn, Margaret Livingston, Phil Tead, Fred Wat son and Edwin Maxwell.

TULSA, Okla, Dec. 12.-This city has turned what might otherwise pass for a more or less unpleasant odor into a reason for boasting
 Frequently the pungent aroma from the huge refineries in West Tulsa is waited across the entire city by the breeze, but instead of apologizing to the visitor, the Tulsa host has found a silver lining to his cloud of fumes.
 Finest thing in the world for colds and influenza" he brags.
 City authorities emphasize that the fumes contain uncomfortable gases considered highly beneficial in respiratory infections.
 Few insects invade the city, also it is pointed out. because of these came fumes.

NEW CHURCH UNION
FOR BIRTH CONTROL
Congregational and Christian
Council Favors Measure
and Soviet Recognition.

SEATTLE, July 3 R.-The newly
organized General Council Of the Con-
greeational and Christian churches was
on record today as approving "volun-
tary parentage" through birth control.
BY nearly unanimous vote, the con-
ventton yesterday Endorsed findings of
Seminar Committee favoring birth
selves on several other present-day
problems
They included stand In favor of
recognition of Soviet Russia, taken
after Col Raymond Robins, New York,
made plea which swung the delegates
away from an attack on Communism

ley, Mass.
Court Union Urged.
Participation by the United States in
the League of Nations and the World
Court was urged.
The findings of the six seminars,
cussion, will be published
The findings favortng t'rth control
Endorsed the stand taken by the Federal
Council of Churches Committee
We believe In the right of children
to be wanted and the right of husbands
and wives to assume parenthood," it
read. Therefore, we favor the princi-
pie Of voluntary collaborating, believ-
ing that it sacramentalizes physical
union and safeguards the wellbeing of
the family and society"
Russia Defended.
Mr.. Parry vigorously opposed the
recommendation of recognition of Soviet
Russia in an address last night, de-
nouncing Communism as "the deadly
enemy Of home and religion"
-
Russia as a representative of the Red
Cross, concurred in the denunciation of
Communism, but said recognition of a
nation did not constitute Endorsement
of its political principles.
Other proposals approved were the
eight-hour day and fve-day week and
disapproval of compulsory military
training in Immigrant colleges. A reso-
luton affirming that ut Is q Christian
obligation to refuse longer to
sanction the present high tariff" was
tabled after opposition developed.

DOMESTIC TRADE
Feiker, Now Bureau Chief,
Sees Need for Planning
Future Business.

Development Of the Bureau Of For
eign and Domestic Commerce OF the
Department of Commerce to the point
where the American business man may
look to 1t for leadership in both
domestic and foreign trade is the aim
of Frederic M. Feiker, the new chief OF
the bureau, who took Office Tuesday.
Feiker is the first man ever named
head of the bureau whose connections
have been primarily with domestic bust
ness. Although coming from outside
the department, he is wen. acquainted
with its work He was assistant to
Herbert Hoover when the latter was
Secretary of Commerce, and he helped
develop the commodities divisions.
Coordination Stressed.
He also served on the Census Dis
tribution Committee and the Louisville
Conference on Retail Distribution and
In an advisory capacity in selecting
department personnel.

Associated Press In an interview, land
the first thing Is to study these and
coordinate the work SO we will know
exactly what we are doing"
cit is my idea we should plan ahead
rather than talk about planning We
want the merchant and manufacturer
to look to the department for leader
ship. Not the leadership in authority,
but through showing the best prac-
tees in business.
1--WE cannot show each Individual
unit in every industry the best business
practices, but we can serve committees
representing individual lines Of bust
ness.
1T Is our hope" he said, ITO set UP
an organized relation between trade
groups in this country on both export
and domestic trade.
Hits Empty Talk.
Manufacturers have learned to look
to the department for foreign trade
policies and are just beginning to come
to it on the question Of domestic trade
I'VE ought to talk less about plan
plans haven't been called 20 or 80 year
plans Is no reason little attention should
be paid to them. We must plan ahead
"An example Of planning ahead is
the study the Interior Department made
10 years or so ago of the electrical
industry. At that time the department
pointed out as possibilities the things
that have been done in the way of
super-power distribution.
Another example of what can be
done is the study by the machinery

ton methods made at Louisville.
THE machinery divisions graphs dis
close potential markets in unexpected

Of its kind, disclosed wasteful practices,
and distributors, by correcting these,

Science
Odors of Flotcers NotU
Produced Artifcially.

THEMISTRY'S synthetic flower gar
~ den is growing.
1t now is possible to produce
artiflcially the odors Of the rose, jas
mine, carnation, heliotrope, lilac, violet
lily of the valley, cyclamen, lime tree
and new-mown hay, it is. reported by
H. Stanley Redgrove, English chemist
in the year book Of the Smithsonian
Institution.
The odor of the carnation is obtained
from the chemical substance eugenol
which is obtained from Glove OIL Safrol
obtained by evaporation of camphor
from camphor oil, can be cheically
treated to produce heliotropine, the es-
sential substance responsible for the
rich heliotrope odor Terpineol. ex-
tracted from turpentine, yields the odor
of lilac. The sweet smell of new-mown
hay is due largely to the chemical SUBJ
stance coumarin. which can be syn
theSized from phenol. A compound OBJ
tanned from citronella forms the basis
OF artificial lily OF the valley, cyclamen
and lilac perfumes.
One of the most difficult of all odors
to produce was that of the violet. Red
grove says. This odor is rare in ma
sture and is produced in the violet by
microscopic bits of the perfume ma
terial. An almost indistinpuishahle
perfume Is now produced from the sub-
stance ionone, which is extracted from
the orris root.

DEMOCRATIC VETS
WARNED OF BOLT
Southern ,Methodists Threat
en to Desert Party Over
=" Prohibition.

LAKE JUNALUSKA, N. C., July 8
R).-A warning went out today from
spokesman Of the Board Of Temper
ance and Social Service of the Mstho-
dist Episcopal Church South that If the
Democratic party adopts a wet plat
form or dominates wet in 1882 it may
face the same opposition In the South
as it did in 1928.
Four States Of the Democratic South
in the 1923 presidential election voted
majorities for the Republican candidate
against Alfred E. Smith, the Demo-
cratic nominee, who favored modif1ca-
ton of the dry laws.
Bishop James Cannon, jr., who fought
Smith In 1923, asserted here last night
at a public meeting Of the Methodist
Board that Smith and John j. Raskob,
national Democratic chairman, were
endeavoring to have the party take a
wet stand In 1892. He said the board,
of which he Is president, asked him to
state the position of the Methodist
Church on prohibition.
IF the Smith-Raskob program is
adopted" he said, ''the South IL months
from now will be faced with the same
problem as In 1928 and I cannot
believe that those Southern people who
put moral principal above party regu-
larity in 1923 will fail to take exactly
the Same position, If compelled to do
so, In 1882"
