 Her role in Air Police" that of Dolores, a dancer in border can- tina, offers her exceptional oppor- tunities to display her talents as an emotional actress.
 In "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath Keaton of the frozen countenance cavorts through comedy of er- TOTS in which too many sweet hearts, a jealous husband with a gun, a policeman and balky auto figure in riproaring series of trials and tribulationS.
 Adapted from the stage play one of the reigning comedy hits of Broadway, the new picture has Buster in the role of a young man | who is "touted" as a gay Lothario to such an extent that he is in trouble-mostly woman trouble - practically all the time.
 Suspected By Sweetheart He gets suspected by his sweet heart, is caught in the compromis- ing position with married woman by her jealous husband-who has a gun-disrupts a fashionable hotel, wrecks car and almost himself and otherwise stays in hot water to the infinite relish of the audi ence
 Miss Greenwood, the celebrated comedienne of So Long Lefty and other Broadway hits, adds no end of joviality to those scenes in which she goes through all sorts of gymnastic stunts with the long legs that made her famous.
 The prominent cast is further augmented by the presence oi Denny Cliff Edwards and Edward Brophy.

HCLLYWOOD-Fr New York the other day came a report that Greta Garbo had spent two weeks there, under an assumed name, doing some shopping.
 The studio, checking the report, found that Greta had used her last vacation resting in the mountains and at Santa Barbara.
 Scarcely a week passes that some studio does not have to check on the whereabouts of one of it's stars. Usually it develops that the star in question has not left Hollywood, and the distant city rumors to the contrary have arisen from some inn postor.
 In the case of Garbo, the many girls who look and dress like the famous Swedish actress serve as a protection when she does venture forth incognito = that is to say, when she does venture forth.
 Every city has it's Garbo imita- tors, and Garbo herself being the best imitation of Garbo, can pass for one of these. But sometimes this proves embarrassing.
 There was, for instance, the day she went motoring up the coast and, as night drew near, found herself approaching San Francisco
 She registered at hotel there as "Olga Smith" or was it "Olga Svenson?" Anyway needing some money the next day, she went to a bank and presented check signed "Greta Garbo."
 The bank was skeptical, checked the hotel she named and found nc Garbo there. And the glamorous Greta almost landed in jail!

eminent should adopt what would
be really the dole principal in re-
lieying the distress of the people.
Unless radical Republicans carry
on a filibuster against regular APP
preparation bills. the danger of a
special session seems to be passed.
Under the compromise there will
be a broadening of the credit ma
ehinery set up for the drought area.
The sum of S20000,000 will be add
ed to the S45,000,00O already appro-
priated. The money will not be
available for charity. but will be
loaned to individuals or to agricul-
tural credit corporations and Sc
cured by liens on crops or other
security.
The loans may be used for "agri-
cultural rehabilitation in addition
to seed, feed and fertilizer. to
which the money provided by the
original act was limited. Under
the guise of agricultural rehab-
1litation' some of the money may
be used by farmers for food and
clothing, but it will not be intended
as charity or as dole.
The plan was incorporated in an
amendment to the senate's amend
ment to the Interior department ap-
preparation bill appropriating S25,-
100000 for the purchase of food
and medical supplies and for other
forms of relief. The S25.0OO.0O
amendment was rejected by the
house, after which the bill was
sent to conference. The procedure
will be for the conferees of the sen.
ate and house to offer the compro-
mise as substitute for the senate
amendment. Technically the con.
ferees will report a disagreement.
Representative L. c. Cramton of
Michigan then will move in the
house that the substitute amend.
ment be accepted. This will be fol-
lowed by its acceptance by the SEN
ate.
The final touches on the agree.
ment were given at conferences par
tlclpated IN by Senator James e.
Watson of Indiana, majority leader
of the senate; Senator Charles L.
McNary of Oregon, assistant major
ity leader; Speaker LongWorth, and
Representative John Q. Tilson of

able to the administration, was a
prospect in the matter of soldiers
bonus legislation. The house ways
