until their purchasing power is

last night in Masonic Temple.
Particularly is it true. he said,
the economy in the Federal and

achieved largely at the expense
of the workers, through salary
cuts, while large property owners
remain almost unaffected.
Bankers, he said, are seeking

TIGER BATTLES
REVISION Of

ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. 12
GN.S0.-With both major 20.
litical parties facing a possible
split in their ranks, the special
session of the legislature, called
to aid New York city in its finan.
cial crisis, will reconvene tonight.
The Democrats appear to be
seriously divided over whether
they will support a measure pro-
posed by former Gov. Alfred E.
Smith designed to result in a gen.
eral revamping Of New York city's
charter.
The Republicans have not yet
been able to agree whether they
will "go along" on the so-called
Smith BILL, which would direct
the New York Board Of Estimate
to prepare a charter revision plan
for submission to the 1888 legis-
lature, convening January 4.
Tammany Democrats are said
to be ready to fight anything
that looks like charter revision
measures at the special session.
They are said to fear that if
Smith puts through his program,
it will mark the beginning of the
end of John F. Curry as leader
Of Tammany.
PreSident-elect Franklin D.
Roosevelt is standing shoulder
to shoulder with Smith in the

HELD. Big SUCCESS
Total Paid Attendance at Ar
nual Motor Exposition
Figured at 2,316

Bismarck automobile dealers Mon
day were checking up on the results
of one of the most successful motor
shows ever held In Bismarck.
Although the paid attendance was
not as large as In some previous
years, many dealers said the enter
prise was more successful than last
year with regard to the number of
new cars sold.
Total paid attendance was 2,3l6 of
whom 1893 were recorded Friday and
1928 Saturday. In addition several
hundred persons were admitted free
at each performance, complimentary
tickets being given to visiting auto
mobile dealers and their families.
The number of persons from out
of the city attending the show was
estimated at 500 each day. Many
factory representatives also were
present. Many came from Mon
tana and others from as far east as
jamestown.
The factory men expressed them
selves as pleasantly surprised by the
exhibition and the facilities provided
for it. One motor executive who has
visited all Of the big motor shows
this year said it was the finest he
has ever seen outside Of the metropol-
itan centers.
Although the attendance this year
was somewhat below the record eS-
tablished in 1881 and a preliminary
survey indicates that the financial
results will not be as satisfactory as
year ago, N. o. Churchill said

LOSE CIVIL RIGHTS
DURING Term ONLY
Only habituaI Criminals Are De-
prived OF Marriage Right
Morris Says

Civil rights of prisoners are su-
spended while they are serving in the
penitentiary, but are restored after
the term has been served, according to
an opinion by Attorney General
General James Morris.
The ruling was In reply to an in
quiry from Burleigh county Judge l..
C.. Davies, Bismarck, who asked
whether the law disqualifies former
convict from marriage.
The law provides for suspension
OF civil rights during the term of i'm
prisonment of a person sentenced to
Imprisonment in the penitentiary,
Morris said.
civil rights" he added, ARE not
thereby permanently destroyed; they
are merely suspended, and after the
sentence has been served the civil
rights of the prisoner. including the
right of marriage, is restored
Morris pointed out that the only
section Of the statutes dealing with
the question of marriage of former
convicts Is Section 1878 Of the COM
piled laws, which prohibits the mar
riage of habitual criminals.
Judge Davies inquired specifically
about man who was sentenced to
the penitentiary for one year, approx
imately 10 years ago, and released az
ter serving the term. The former
prisoner applied for marriage GER
tificate, and Morris ruled he was en-
titled to one, since the man is not a
habitual criminal.

At the Movies
AT THE PARAMOUNT

When one sees Union Depot, cur.

alter, he constantly is torn between
the desire to laugh and be thrilled, so
he usually does both, according to
Mordaunt Hall, movie critic for the
New York Times.
The plot hinges on the experience
of a pleasant young hobo in the rail-
road terminal of a metropolis and
provides plenty Of hectic action. the
camera hopping here and there in the
great building to show what is hap
pening to various persons taking part
In the picture.
Hall asserts it is all very lifelike and
ingenious rather than artistic with
enough melodrama here and there to
maintain interest. At one point, he
asserts, 1t is not unlike one Of the old
"Perils of Pauline" serials.
Strange condolences occur, blu.
they are pardonable in view of the
fact that the camera is the all-seeing
eye In the station, the eye that can
take one from the man whose poke:
Is picked to the man who eventually
finds the wallet tossed away by the
thief
Union Depot" however is filled
with cleverly worked-out surprises,
some of which are mindful of the
shell game. Chic Is played by Doug
las Fairbanks, Jr, who appears to
have taken a leaf from James Gag
ney's book, judging by his talk and
the way he slaps a girls face. Mr..
Fairbanks heads cast of twenty and
they all contribute to the excitement
and fun. Joan Bondell is seen as
Ruth, the flaxen-haired chorus girl,
whom Chick encounters in the station
after he has snatched sufficient of
this worlds goods from another
mans bag. All she needs to make
her happy is $64 to take her to Salt
Lake City and q good dinner. She
gets the fare and the meal and also
an unpleasantly close association,
happily temporary, with the law. But
fear not-she catches her train for
Salt Lake City.
All told, there are a score of char
acters, each of whom contributes his
bit to the exciting "a hours recorded
by the film. In the end all comes out
right. Truth and justice triumph and
virtue is unsullied: one OF Uncle
Sans sleuths catches a counterfeiter
and everyone Is satisfied at the last
fade-out.
