tary action should do what it re- quired. If they are not, legislative action will meet with resistance. J
 Since surplus difficulties now largely are export difficulties and the commodities most depressed those which sell heavily in foreign markets, MT. Hyde says it is fun damental to domestic recovery to understand the progress Europe is making toward feeding herself.
 Because of tremendous agricul- tural expansion to feed embattled nations, the war left the American industry excessively dependent up- on the European market. But, as early as 1927 the cultivated area of Europe, outside Russia, was back to 97 per cent of the pre-war average and the need for American prod ucts decline proportionately.
 Acreage Cut
 The action by southern states to limit the 1892 cotton acreage is seen as evidence of realization at last that the law of supply and demand must be observed.
 There is further indication in the voluntary reduction in winter wheat acreage for 1882, in country buying of fewer meat animals to fatten and in more dairy cattle go- ing to slaughter.

CAPITOL HAS '0LD CHEYENNE
 AS HEADL|NER
Tonight Every Woman al Either Performance
 Gets Silverware

 Tonight is "Chinaware Night. Every woman attending either of the performances will receive a piece of table chinaware.
 "In Old Cheyenne" provides fast action for the dyed-in-the-woo western photoplay enthusiast as well as for the casual patron ot talking motion pictures.
 In theme, treatment and produc- tion, this outdoor comedy drama moves along quickly to a climax It has originality in its story.
 Tn Old Cheyenne" opens on an old western ranch, now a guest ranch" which the owner of the vast property is operating to offset the tremendous losses he has suf- fered from the depredations of a well-organized band of horse thieves.
 Arrives In Nick Of Time
 As you may have guessed, the hero arrives at this juncture. But what hero! He is everything a western hero should be; handsome devil -may-care, hard rider, and which is more important, a hard hitter! Under what circumstances he meets the pretty daughter of the ranch owner and how success full he is in ridding the country of the horse thieves form the nar- rative of this play.
 Hero Is Rex Lease
 The hero is Rex Lease, cowboy star. Dorothy Gulliver, in the lead ing feminine role, runs Rex a close second for honors in the picture.
 Jay Hunt, as the crippled though shrewd father of Miss Gulliver and the owner of the ranch, is an old stage trouper.

 New Taxes on Peo- pie of Washington
By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON D. c. Jan. s. While the rest of the country has had it's attention centered on war debts. attacks on President Hoover and the like in Congress, residents of the Capital find themselves
 concerned with a problem of their
 own.
 And this particular problem is causing more racket in the confines of the District of Columbia, per-
 haps, than all the rest of the do-
 ings in Congress put together. A move is underway in the House to impose new taxes on the resi-
 dents of Washington.
 For a time a special commit tee of members of Congress, headed by the tall and bald Mapes of
 Michigan, has been studying the fiscal relations between the federal government and the city of Wash inton. The committee made it's re- port soon after the opening of Congress.
 Briefly, it recommended that the federal contribution to the District
 budget be reduced and that new
 taxes affecting incomes and auto
 mobiles, among other things, be imposed.

 Queen Kelly" Eiumor Pops Up
 If you can believe the report, and it seems authentic this time, Gloria Swanson's ill-fated produc- tion, Queen Kelly" is at last cut down to $500 feet and will be re- leased in the near future.
 Gloria now has between $600,- % and $700000 tied up in this O. Studios in November, 1928, with picture. She began it at the F. B Eric Von Stronheim directing. In December of the same year the company moved out to Pathe, where the film finally was com pleted. It ran into 30,000 feet.
 Since then, various attempts have been made to get it into shape for showing. Finally, it was decided to cut the story in half and use only the first episode.
 The job of synchronizing the film is now under way. Of course, it will be a silent picture, designed chiefly for foreign release.
 The news that the picture is coming out should be good news to Walter Byron and Seena Owen, who were kept off the screen for months during the filming.

A Vail Starts

A Vail Starts
 Loud was the vail that went up in the District. And since Washington is voteless, the old cry of taxa ton without representation was that Congress was trying ito soak" heard on all sides.
 The people of Washington con- tend that a comparison between the city and other capitals is im- possible. They argue that Washing tons position is unique; that it exists only because the govern ment decided to build here the worlds most magnificent capital.
 They point out further that Washington has no independent existence; that it's resources are largely devoted to supplying the needs of the government.
 Debate Is Hot
 On the other hand Congress in- sists that the government is and has been most liberal with the res idents of Washington-some say too liberal.
 Congressmen are loud in their statements that nothing should be done to delay or mar the progress of the capital, but at the same time they think the people of Washington should share more in civic expenses.
 The newspapers lead the fight for the District.
 Members of Congress reply in open forum in the House. The Congressional Record is filled with language fully as colorful and bristling as that found in the daily press.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal.-While an expectant Hollywood waits to see her, Tallulah Bankhead is spend- ing her time hiking in the hills and in dining quietly at home or with a few close friends. or
 I have this from the lips of Ttallulah herself, who gave this de- partment the first interview she has granted in California.
 "If lived up 10 advance pub licity," she says, T would be turn ing cartwheels in public places.
 T find, though, by the time I've hiked, or taken a motor ride, I'm sleepy at g o'clock. I've dined only with few friends. I've been ill, you know, and am on a six weeks vacation"
 Southern California reminds Tal- lulah of Southern France. Only she adds, with the houses perched on the hills the way they are. I'm always afraid I'll wake up and find it a set"
 The star thinks her screen ve- hicles to date are open to criti- cism, but says she intends to have more to say about her next story. Her chief difficulty in camera work, she reveals, is in retarding the rapid flow of speech for which she is noted on the stage.
 One of the few stars she's met is Jackie Cooper. This came about when Joan Crawford and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., invited her over to meet "a very clever young man" :"
 You've heard, of course, that Tallulah has taken Billie Haines' house for her stay in Hollywood.
 Let me assure you, her coming has brought 8 glamorous person. ality to the film capital.

ing and loan associations through their
intimate contact with home borrowers
are now certain the future Of home
ownership depends upon the sound use
and expansion Of residential property
credit. The convention will consider
means to this end. and will plan the
use which these home financing in
stitutions will make of funds available

ton program.
10 Committees to Report.

lation, thrift week. standards of prac-
tice, national advertising. mortgage

must be considered In the reiuvenation
Of this room,
Among the most important changes
we make is the substitution OF short,
tied-back draperies, topped with val
ances, for the long. straight draperies
Of the old room. The horizontal lines
of the valances have a tendency TO
lower the ceiling, giving better proper
ton to the room, while the vertical
lines of the old draperies had exag-
gerated the rooms height.
For the sake Of interest IN the Win
dow treatment, fiowered chitZ sup
plants the dark, self-f1gured damask in
the old room. With glass curtains of
peach, this flowered chintz Is used in
draperies and valanceS. The new dra-
peries hang only to the bottom of the
wooden apron under the sill, with the
glass curtains ending quarter Of an
inch above the sill.
When we come to the dark vanished
woodwork we find that the wonderful
improvement can be worked here by
repainting it in light ivory, eggshell
finish The picture molding that ran
around the walls of the room a foot

sary by the valances which decrease the
height of the room, so We remove this
molding entirely.
A small-figured wall paper in a light
tone replaces the old rooms monoto-
nous dark yellowish tan paper. These
small-f1gured papers give room an
essential feeling of airiness, while wall
papers full of large figures have a
tendency to make rooms appear smaller.
Another important touch in the treat
ment of walls is the placing of pictures.
In addition to their decorative function,
pictures have the effect of rounding out
a grouping of furniture against the
wall. In our room we place two small
pictures between the windows and right
above the sofa, helping to tie pictures
between the windows.
To avoid any stairstepping which is
common mistake, we hang our pic
lures one directly above the other. A
picture should be hung so that its center
Is very slightly above the eye level.
with a group of two small pictures

place the other right above 1t.
