GRETA GARBO IN NEW TRI- UMPlT "TNSPIRATION' AT STATE TO-MORROW-ItOB Y MONTGOMERY AND LEWIS STONE IN CAST,

"Inspiration," which will open to- morrow at Warner Bros. State the ater, stacs Greta Garbo. It is her third Metro-Goldwyn-M Mayer talking picture and is particularly anticipat- ed because it is the first time she has essayed typically glamorous role in the medium of sound.
 Lewis Stone, always competent In any role, essays another suave char acterization as a Partisan boulevard fer, heading q remarkable support ing cast.
 The story concerns a beautiful model of the Paris studios who gives up her circle of wealthy admirers for the love of provincial student. The disclosure of her manner of liv- ing shocks the youth, however. and he casts her off to accept diplo- matic post and to marry childhood sweetheart. In the end he tries 70 return to her, but she makes a noble sacrifice, knowing she would drag him down to her level.
 Garbo has never had more gilt tering or dramatic vehicle and Tn producing this stirring picture, Met rot Goldwyn Mayer has done so with lavish hand. The settings and cos tunes are striking and the scene of the studio ballroom is one of the most ostentatious yet to have reached the screen.
 Gilbert Adrian designed Miss Gar bo's ultra modern gowns and seems to have eycelled his own previous ef- forts in creating the unusual and gorgeous.

TREAT COLDS PROMPTLY BUT AVOID "DOSING"

As vet the outbreak of flu reported in waterbury has not reached alarming proportions. Health au- thorities advise everyone to take these common sense precautions: Eat wisely; get plenty of sleep and fresh air; avoid undue exposure; and above all treat every cold promptly. Unless. checked quickly, colds tend to pull down the body resistance and may pave the way for an attack of flu with all its serious complications.
 Attack Colds at the Start
 At the first sign of sniffling, sneez- ing or other signs that you are "catching cold" start treatment at once with vicks Vapo-Rub. Place some Vicks up each nostril and snuff well back. Do this several times q day. It will often keep a little cold from becoming a big one.it If the head Is clogged with mucus or phlegm, or there is much cough Ing, melt teaspoonful of vicks In q bowl or kettle of hot water and lnhaie the steaming vapors for i've minutes at time.

HOOVER REGIME
 TO OPEN COUNTER
 ATTACK ON BONUS
Compromise Project Being Perfected and May Be Presented to the House for Its Consideration
BY LYLE c. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent

Washington, January 30 -- (UP) The administrators counter at tack upon advocates of further cash payments to World War Vet erans was scheduled for today if compromise project can be perfected in time for submission in the house or senate.
 Plans of the administration are secret, but the United Press was in- would increase the rights of Vet erans to Borrow, but would not re- uuire a bond issue. Financial de- tails of the legislation were under scrutiny yesterday to determine whether the treasury department could accept them.
 Unless the counter-attack is made quickly 1t may be unavailing. Tne veterans are driving for rellef wltn the enthusiasm and characterlst'c of them at St Mihiel, the Meuse- Argonne and at Chateau Ihlerry some years ago. Administration de- lenses are weak. Unless some sub stitute proposal can be put forward. republicans will desert President Hoover on this issue as he has not been deserted in his administration so far.
 Inquiry in the senate fails to re- veal 0 dozen men willing now to say without qualification they will op- pose voting further cash to the vet eraNs.
 Majority Leader Watson probably would vote against such scheme. So would republican Senators Reed, Pa. and Bingham, Conn. A few others would vote with the president on 8 showdown, but do not want to commit themselves now. The dem- ocrats are almost unanimous in sup port of cash payments now.
 But among opponents or tne scheme there is privately ex- pressed belief that high officials or the American Legion are not really certificates cashed at this time. The proposed compromise is direct, ed to giving Legion officials as well as worried senators chance to abandon cash payment protects without stirring up constituents back home.

 Advocates of relief say it is es- sential to assist the veterans. Op-- ponents assert business would hit bottom again if the proposed relief were granted. Secretary of Treas ury Mellon has hit hard against any veterans bond issue. Both senate and house committees have heard him.

 An immediate effect of relief agl- tation has been to accelerate action on the veterans hospital program. The senate finance committee has decided to hold hearings. Appro- priation of $10.O0O to $15.o0O for ad- ditional hospital facilities probably will be made at this session Hear ings on the disqualification program in California and Washington were being held today by the house vet erans committee.
