The economy act provision
which prohibits filling of vacan-

President is recommended for re-
peal in the Treasury-Postof
bill.
The bill carries a proViso sus-
pending for year bonuses paid
for reenliStments in the Army,
Navy, Marine Corps and Coast
Guard.
The bill establishes as a policy
that diSInissalS Of employees for
reasons of economy shall stop
but that surplus personnel shall
be furloughed without pay, the
furloughs to apply first, when
feasible, to higher salaried en-
ployes. The plan is to spread
available work by giving part
time employment to as many as
possible.
Cite $1OO,OOO,OOO Saving
The committee report states
that although there may be injus-
tices and inequalities in some Of
the provisions of the economy act,
their application and adminiStra-
tion are now fairly well settled by
the administrative and accounting
offices and further revision will
result in additional complications
and difficulties.
The committee report also
points out that by continuation
of the economy act, a saving for
all departments, exclusive of the
Legislative branch, amounts to
$98, ,918,228.

Though the grasshopper situation
for the state in 1882 will depend large
ly on the weather in the next few
weeks. farmers can do much at pres
ent to fight off the menace, accord
ing to J. A. Munro, of the state agri-
cultural college.
Munro recommends the use of poi
son bran bait during the 'hoppers'
growing season and deep blowing OF
ground followed by packing or har-
rowing. Deep blowing, he says. bur-
les the eggs and prevents most of
the Matched 'hoppers from getting to
the surface.

This Lii LeGendre Of Red

siren in every way. She knows
what she wants and goes after 1t.
1t was unfortunate for Bill Le-

from an unhappy husband to go
on the loose. In the book she

The Dark Horse
Is Politics
and Love

Particularly timely right now
is The Dark Horse" current
film feature at the Earle, for 1t
offers an insight and some side
lights into the theory and prac-
tice of popular government that
should be most welcome in this
Presidential year.
We find Guy Kibbee neatly
ensconced in the central role of
Hicks from the Sticks" the
dumbeSt of all gubernatorial
candidates, and we follow him
through the tortuouS mazes of a
campaign whose incidents are
amazing and amusing.
There are those, doubtless, who
will see in the career of the
estimable Hicks certain parallels
to that of an even more
prominent figure in American
public life. Also, there may be
some who will find in the char
acter of the eStimable Hicks more
than a resemblance to an equally
prominent parsonage. In a word,
Hicks is rather a composite of
two or three highly placed gentle
men of the past decade or so,
if one cares to view him in that
light.
The story is that Of a hope
lesSly deadlocked convention
which ultimately nominates the
dumbeSt delegate for governor.
Then a high-poWered publicitor
builds up his stupidity and his
inanity, making him popular
fetish. OF course he is elected,
despite his own utmost efforts to
defeat his candidacy. Warren
William, Bette Davis, Frank Nc
Hugh and Vivienne Osborne are
prominent in the cast.
The stage show presents
Herman Timberg and his gang,
always to be counted on for
a using nonsense; Charlie
Jordan and Johnny Woods,
radios ballyhooligans," with de-
lightful satire on ether per-
sonalitieS; the Four Queens,
clever and attractive tap dancers,
and the KitaroS, a standard
Japanese acrobatic act. The news
reel has much of interest.

'Scarface" Is Coming
To Palace on lIlu ]

"Scarface," one of the widely
discussed pictures of the current
season, will be presented by
United Artists at Loew's Palace
Theater beginning Friday, July I.
This Howard Hughes produc-
ton, based on the novel of the
same name by Armitage Trail,
strips the cloak of secrecy from
the underworld and shows the
daily lives of the crime barons
who observe no code but their
own and who bow to no law save
that Of the gun.
The title role Of "Scarface" is
played by Paul MUM, recently
starred in New York in the Elmer
Rice play, Counsellor at Law"
Others in the cast are Ann
Dvorak, Karen Morley, George
Raft, Boris "FrankensteinD Kar-
loft and Osgood Perkins.
