BY HARRY CANNES.

A NEW phase of the economic and financial
~ crisis is being opened up in the United
States by the latest moves of the Hoover hunger
government towards initiation and the ultimate
collapse of the gold standard in the United
States.
So desperate is this step that one leading
capitalist economist writing in the New York
Evening Post described it as playing with
enough dynamite to blow the capitalist system
to pieces While the capitalists themselves
tremble at the possibilities of their new move
the chief result will be to intensity the misery
OF the workers, bringing forward the necessity
OF greater struggles against capitalism and the
series of tortures it holds in store for them
The Glass Steagall Bill.
Very soon Congress. under the careful groom

This measure is but one of whole series of
futile attempts of American capitalism to stop
the ever-increasing number of bank failures and
the bankruptcy that threatens the railroads, in
surance companies and other large capitalist cor
poratons.
The first move was the establishment of the
Finance Credit Corporation that was to- save
the banks. More bank failures followed this
step. The next move was the creation of the
Emergency Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
This measure, which was to be cure-all, was
followed by an increase in bank failures, a fur

thrown in for good measure.
Not the slightest bit hampered
by a role that carries her from
a boarding house drudge to the
highest peak of Boston society,
Rose Hobart does an excellent
piece of acting. Her silvery voice
and the soft caress she bestoWs
on this harsh language OF ours
stand her in good stead.
Story of Hardships
Of course it's hard for a poor
hand in a shoe factory to get
along, but it's a harder lot, by
far, for the son of the man who
moves the wheels of the shoe
manufacturing business to start
from the bottom, especially if he
has ambitions for a musical
career, a beautiful society damsel
and a life in Paris.
So the hero of our tale, played
by the amiable Ben Lyon, who has
already lost his Boston beauty to
d better provider, takes to drink.
What! nobody to save, him? Don't
be ridiculous. Ann, Of, the broom

rival rum kings. But the work
of Emma Dunn, Leslie Fenton

contributed plenty to the films
success.

racketeer falls in love with the
pretty daughter of the other.
There's not much love lost be-

Is Sophisticated Tale
"Forbidden" is the story Of
"the other woman" Of a frus.
trated love. It follows the career
Of Lulu Smith, girl glowing
with the zest Of living, hungry
for romance. On a pleasure trip
to Havana she contracts an af,
fair with an agreeable. passenger
which is continued after their re-
turn to the States. 1t develops
that Bob Grover, a successful
lawyer, is married to an invalid
wife and divorce is out of the
question. Parenthood further
tangles their romance and when
a smart newspaper man discovers
the skeleton in the lawyers closet,
he threatens exposure and ruin
for the political career Of the
now Senator Grover. 1t is Lulu
who is sacrificed and tur1bled
into the ruins of this forbidden
love.
The characterization of Bar
bara Stanwyck is spirited and
intelligent. Despite her moral
lapses there is appeal and un;
derstanding for the unfortunate
Lulu, who finds a degree of hap
