."SQUAW MANI
 TO BE SEEN AT CAPITOL SUNDAY
Edwin Milton Royle's Fa- nous Stage Classic Has
 Notable Cast

"The Squaw Man" Edwin Mill ton Royle's classic of racial inter marriage, will be presented at the Capitol theatre Sunday. The fla mcus drama has been played stsad- Ay on the stage since 1905, and has been translated in every known lsongue. In pictures it has been made twice in "silents," both times by Cecil B. DeMille. E DeMille now transfers the story into talk picture form, with the help of an extremely powerful cast, including Warner Baxter, Lupe Velez, Eleanor Boardman, Charles Bickford, Roland Young, Paul Ca- vanaugn, Raymond Hatton, Julia Faye, Dewitt Jennings, J. Farrell McDonald, Dickie Moore and oth- CTS.
 Eye-Filling Spectacle
 One of the eye-filling spsctacles in the talking version is a huge English fox hunt, with scores of men and women on horseback. This scene provides the background for one of the most dramatic scenes in the production; the scene, in fact, which proves that Jim Cars ton, the leading male character, is not thief, and sends his sweet heart, Diana, to New Mexico in search of him.
 Hundreds of horses and trained riders, all former devotees of the chase, were gathered together to make this particular sequence en- tirely accurate.
 The fox hunt is compared later in very dramatic fashion to a western cattle roundup on Cars tons ranch.

WILL ROGERS STARS TONIGHT
 AT C0LISEUM N
Young As You Feel I, Hilarious Comedy with
 Notable Cast

Tn Young AS You Feel" which begins showing tonight at the Col iseum theatre, there is a notable cast of players. One of them is Will Rogers. He would he enough if there were no others. The lead ing feminine role is taken by Eff Dorsay.
 Rogers and Miss Dorsay indulge in hilarious antics and their antics form an important part of the example Rogers sets for his two pleasure seeking, business neglect ing sons.
 Popular Stage Success
 Young AS You Feel" is the screen version of George Ada's popular stage success, Father and the Boys
 The screen story, which was adapted in continuity and dialogue by Edwin Burke, presents Rogers as woe-begone and dyspeptic Wi dover confronted with the problem of getting his two spirited sons settled down to matrimony and business.
 Takes Fifi's Advice
 His rigid economies and good conduct failing, he takes the advice of Eff, who essays the role of Fleurette, a vivacious French dan cer,- and begins to lead a gay life in search of good time for him self. This plan, he believes, will bring the sons to their senses and his idea works, thanks to Fifi and after six weeks of hilarity, during which time he regains the natural humor and buoyancy of his youth, he has the satisfaction of seeing both sons marry the girls of his choice and begin to look upon business seriously.
 The supporting cast includes Lu- cien Littlefield, Donald Dillaway, Torrance Ray, Lucille Browne, Ro- salie Roy, c. Henry Gordon, John T. Murray, Brandon Hurst, Marcia Harris and Gregory Gaye,

WHEN GEN. WASHINGTON
MADE A GREAT DECISION
Refused The Kingship of Amer
lea $50 Years Ago

Few Americans know that our coun-
try today might be a monarchy but
for an act of nobility performed by
George Washington on May %, 1882.
The officers of the Revolutionary
Army had implored Washington to
assume royal power, place himself at
their head and rule the country as a
king. On May %, a century and a
half ago, General Washington re-
fused this invitation in patriotic terms
so strong that the idea was dropped
This information comes from the
United States George Washington

of kingship, but the circumstances

sale more difficult, the local organiza-
ton of the Legion Auxiliary will ex-
tend their poppy sale date over a
weeks time, inaugurating the event
on May 81.
The voice of the Legion and the Le-
gion Auxiliary this year speaks in a
loud tone for a successful poppy sale,
that the work of assisting the orphans
of World War veterans might be car
ried on uninterruptedly, and to that
end effort will be put forth by the
local organizations to sell more pop
pies than ever during the sale period
this year.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1932-05-19

our history, known chiefly to scholars,
need be recalled to the everyday Am
erican, that he may form a still clearer
conception of the nobility of Washing
toms character.
This incident, which constitutes one
of the critical moments in the destiny
of America, occurred while General
Washington and the Continental Army
were encamped at Newburgh, on the
Hudson. The surrender of CORVALLIS
had virtually ended the Revolution,
but nominally hostilities were still in
effect, and Washington was determ-
ined to hold the army together against
any surprise renewal of the war. As
usual his soldiers were poorly clothed
and fed, and Congress was deeply in
arrears in their pay. By then the war
had dragged on for seven long years.
The struggle had cost Washington's
officers the loss of their personal for
tunes, and the entire enlisted force
faced a future of want on being re-
leased to civil life.
Discomfort rose to dangerous inten-
sity in all ranks. At length, Colonel
Lewis Nicola, respected character on
friendly terms with the Commander
in-Chief, spoke for the officers as a
body when he addressed to Washing
ton a yelled proposal that he take
over the government of the country,
with the army behind him, and rule
it as king.
The late Senator Cabot Lodge, in
his biography of Washington, states
tina ton this occasion Washington was
as truly tempted as Caesar, with an
offer to make himself king or emperor.
The stroke, moreover, would have been
easy of accomplishment. The colo
nists were all beggared by war. Their
governments were slack and weak
The Revolutionary Army was the one
cohesive, national power in the land
To a man the soldiers worshipped
Washington, and with their aid he
could have taken over control of the
nation. AS near as that, at this stage
of Americas history, was the country
to becoming a monarchy.
And yet it was a long distance
away. To George Washington the
temptation of kingship was no temp
tation at all. On the contrary, he put
it aside with far greater and more
sincere indignation that did Caesar
wave aside the laurel crown. In q
letter whose very word should be i'm
planted in the mind Of every school
child in America, he declined Nicolas
offer and rebuked the man who made
it. Writing on May %, 1882, he said;
with a mixture of great surprise
and establishment, 1 have read with
attention the sentiments you have
submitted for my perusal. Be as
sured, sir, no occurrence in the course
of the war has given me more painful
sensations, than your information OF
there being such ideas existing in the
army as you have expressed, and
must view with adherence and rep
rehend with severity.

BANK RUN BY CITY
M|LWAUKEE'SA AIM.
Mayors Committee Suggests
Plan With Deposits at
Usual Interest.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE,, Wis. March 26.-A
movement to put the city Of Milwaukee
in the banking business was initiated
today.
Sponsors of the plan vision thrifty
citizens carrying their savings to the
city hall, giving their pennies and dol
lars to a municipal teller and having
their deposits noted in a city bank
book. It is being proposed as the
safest bank which human ingenuity
can devise"
Usual bank rates Of interest would
be paid and money might pe withdrawn
virtually on demand.
The suggestion comes from the Ad-
visory Committee Of the Socialist
mayor, Daniel W. Hoan. 1t has tenta-
tive approval of the mayor, who has
urged his committee to ascertain all
legal obstacles which the plan might
encounter. The committee started to-
day by asking the State Banking De-
partment whether the city would need
bank charter.
Legal, Says Mayor.
The mayor believes the city charter
broad enough to allow Milwaukee to
enter the business of banking. basing

that Wisconsin cities nave authority
to invest municipal funds in railroad
securities and other private enter
prises.
I. B. Goetz, dealer in bankrupt mer-
chandise, who says he is not Socialist,
fathered the municipal bank idea.
So far as the depositor Is concerned
the city hall bank would be an ordinary
bank, streSSing the virtue of thrift and
soliciting savings accounts. But in
vestment Of the banks deposits would
be limited to bonds Of the city and
county of Milwaukee, GoeCz said. Bond
issues in Milwaukee are restricted to
5 per cent Of the assessed valuation of
property.
Municipal and county bonds ordi-
narily pay interest Of 4 10 AIS per cent.
Interest at Per Cent.
The depositor in the city bank would
get 3 per cent. There would be margin
enough to pay expenses of the bank,
and perhaps for some little profits
which ultimately might be applied to
tax reduction, sponsors of the plan
assert.
The banks security should do much
to coax boarded dollars from hiding,
Goetz said, adding it would be as sound
as the city hall corner stone
The bank plan must receive authori-
zation from the City Council. 1t is ex-
pected to meet opposition there of COM
mercial banking institutions.
