CLUB ENDORSES STATE GAS TAX
WARRANT EMPLOYMENT PLAN

The directors of the Commercial
club have adopted the resolution
published below by way of cooper
ating with commercial bodies and
other organizations in all parts of
the state, and in harmony with
action it is believed the legisla-
ture is certain to take. II is an
emergency measure for the relief.
to the extent possible, of the un-
employed in Montana.
In brief the plan is for the state
to issue warrants against the an
ticipated highway funds received
from the gasoline tax the next
four years. The funds thus
brought in in advance would be
used to match federal road money
due Montana and make possible
the starting of actual work on
many projects, and the creating
of employment for an army Of
men who are now idle. Very nat
urally the benefit would be felt
by the whole state.
Following is the
Resolution
WHEREAS, There exists at the
present time a financial depression
which exists throughout the Unit
ed States, and
WHEREAS, One means of furn-
ishing work and labor to a large
number of people would be by the
immediate construction Of feder-
al aid highways throughout the
nation, and
WHEREAS, There is not at
the present tine Sufficient funds
available to the state highway

DIR. HENRY R. EVANS
ENDS j. S. SERVICE
Veteran Student of Magic
Retires After a. Years in
Education Department.

DR.. Henry R. Evans, assistant editor
of the United States Office Of Educa-
ton, retired today after a service of
more than A years in that department.
DR.. Evans has been especially promi-
nent as student of the history and
art of magic, and is the author of nu-
merouS volumes on these subjects which
have required research in many parts
of the world and acquaintance with the
foremost magicians of the time.
He was a close personal friend of the
late Harry Houdini, and told today how
ne persuaded the great magician to
leave his library of magic, the collec-
ton of which had been his hobby for
many years, to the Government fer
deposit in the Library of Congress.
Houdini had already made his will,
leaving the collection to Columbia Uni
verSity, when DR.. Evans persuaded him
to make the change.
Found Rare Signatures.
Among the historical characters
which Dr. Evans has investigated was
the notorious Italian Cagliostro. He
the only extant signatures of Cagliostro
for which European antiquaries had
hunted fruitlessly for years.
He remembered the magician had
been imprisoned in the Bastile for
more than a year in connection with
the famous diamond necklace theft and
that it was the custom Of the time for
the police frequently to interrogate pris-
oners. At the end of each interrogation
the questions and answers were written
down and the prisoner made to sign
the sheet as evidence that his replies
had been reported correctly So. after
obtaining access to the old BaStile rec
ords with considerable difficulty, he
found several sheets signed by Cagliostro
as result of such questionings.
Dr. Evans is a native of Baltimore
and was educated at Columbian (now
George Washington University and
the University of Maryland. In 1914
he was granted the degree of doctor of
letters by the University Of Maryland.
For several years he was a newspaper
reporter, serving on the Baltimore News,
Washington Post, Denver Republican
and Leadville (Colo) Herald-Democrat

THE story Of "Six Cylinder Love"
which Thornton Freeland directed,
is a comedy with many Of its scenes
laid in and about two houses in the
suburbs of-any large city. This might
seem to be one Of the least expensive
locations possible. The rest ought to
be easy. And it was-that is, except
for the sun.
Some Of the scenes we're laid in the

1t seems hardly necessary TO point out
that the movement Of the sun supplies

In the cutting Of tire film, this change
of light and shade is enough to spoil a

than a laynan would believe possible

The pioneer motion picture producers
solved this problem in their own way,
with a revolving stage upon which were
constructed intsrior rooms with remov-

moved the stage revolved with 1t, for
the actors to go on with their parts.
