of witnesses.
The hearings were intended, how

predicted approval within a week, de-
spite some stiff opposition In house
and senate.

High Stakes" the Willard Mack
stage success which captivated Broad
way audiences some seasons back, has
been translated into a Greer melo-
drama by RKO-Radio Pictures, and is
on the Capitol theatre screen tomor-
row.
Lowell Sherman, actor director,
takes the dual role again in this pro-
duction, as he did in '"The Royal Bed"
and Bachelor Apartment" High
Stakes" is the type OF story admirably
suited, it Is said, to Sherman's suave
yet vigorous ~portrayals. In it he is
said to give one of the best perform
ances Of his colorful and distinguish
ed career, as the wastrel brother Of q
millionaire whom he saves from mari
tai unhappiness and the scheming de-
signs of a racketeering wife.
Mae Murray, who has been seen
before with Lowell Sherman only re-
Gently in Bachelor Apartment" plays
the part of the baby-faced cheat, un-
masked by Sherman. Others In the
cast are the attractive new star, Kar-

DEPRESSION FORCES
ARE AT ROPES END
Famous Economist Says Amer;-
can Business Now Has
Weathered Storm

Cleveland, Dec. 15.-(R-In the
opinion of Col. Leonard p. Ayres,
vice president of the Cleveland Trust
company, and nationally recognized
business analyst, the two main forces
which caused the country's depres-
sion. have reached the end of their
ropes.
Making his annual address Tues
day before the Cleveland chamber of
commerce, Col. Ayres said these two
great forces were the collapse of
wholesale prices and the contraction
Of credit under pressure of the banks.
After two years of economic strain,
Col. Ayres found the American dol
lar, the federal reserve and the
American banking system have
weathered the storm triumphantly."
He added that ut is not to be ex-
pected that credit expansion will de-
velop promptly, merely because the
climax Of fears has passed.
The chief business policy recon-
mended by Col. Ayres for 1882 called
for balanced budgets.
