INVITATIONAL PREVIEW
TO BE HELD TONIGHT

Tonight at 1870 the Indiana
theater will hold an invitational
trade preview of the Douglas Fair

eral days ago by First National

women's clubs and leaders of the

Turning from the usual trend of
motion picture stories, "Union De-

story, bringing to the screen a host
OF characters that every one passes
every day and knows nothing about.
A Union depot in a large city is
the novel and different setting
around which the action of the pic
ture revolves.
Besides young Fairbanks, the cast

were not diminished by numbers She proud of THAT
baby as proud of each of its sixteen brothers

Power Companies
To Support Hoover

The plan, according to the
story, is to get it from the
great power companies.
These will not contribute as
companies, for that would be
too brazen. The contribu-
tions reported will come from
individuals-but the money
will be the money Of these
power combines.
We read that the country
is to be divided into sections
for the collection of these
five millions, and that the
public, utilities are to be
urged to make their con-
tribution.
This is plausible enough,
in view of the positions of
Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Hoover. The former pro-
poses a policy Tor the pro
lection of the consumers Of
power; the latter has been
out in front battling for the
big power companies. The
controversy today over the
st. Lawrence River develop
ment makes the issue.
In the matter of the
treaty with Canada, the Ad-
ministration at Washington
does not appear in a favor
able light. A few months
ago it formally informed
Governor Roosevelt that ne
gotiations had not begun;
when the treaty was COM
pleted, tbe governor was told
by the Administration at
Washington that the negoti-
ations had been on for three
years.

Roosevelt Theory
Sound and Just

In his Minneapolis speech
Mr.. Roosevelt made it plain
that he has no thought of ig-
noring or discriminating
against any element in the
nation engaged in legitimate
enterprise. His theory is
sound and just-that every
element must be considered
in government and properly
encouraged and protected.
The banker, the railroad ex-
ecutive, the industrialist, the
m er C h ant-but also the
farmer, the laborer, will and
should be consulted and con-
sidered by Mr.. Roosevelt.
But there are elements
that are illegitimate that he
as a progressive and inheri-
tor of the principles of JEFF
ferson and jackson must be
and will be against-the

modern woman'S style, and she
is apt to find it monotonous.
It is no longer the only occupa-
tion open to her, as it was for
her grandmother. There are
hundreds Of other jobs which
give larger financial returns
and much more leisure and ex-
element. Usually the bride
has held such a position before
marriage. She has known the
stimulation of varied interests
and varied men.
She exchanges this for the
dull routine and confinement
of housework and the constant
companionship of one man. If
her heels begin to itch after
a few years of that program,
who can blame her?
SENTIMENTAL THEORY
TO THE CONTRARY, 1T RE
QUIRES MUCH MORE SACRI-
FICE FOR THE MODERN
WOMAN TO STICK BY HER
HOME THAN TT DOES FOR
THE MODERN MAN.
Many wives have sufficient
love and patience to make that
sacrifice-all honor to them.
But many haven't. And all the
pretty palavering of the divorce
courts can't hide the fact that
Restless Wives are raising Cain
with the status quo. A restless
woman automatically becomes a
discontented woman-a. naggy,
self pitying woman. And pres
emily it's dollars to doughnuts
that she has spotted some new
male Who Understands her Bet
ter and who will give her, once
more, the sense of adventure
which she lost when she mar
ried.
What Do You Think?
Are women more faithless
than men? And, if so, is that
why they are? Think over,
honestly, the marriages you
know. Go thoughtfully through
the hotel and movie fobbies in
the afternoon and study the
faces of the women over 30
the women with boredom and
rebellion in their eyes and we'd

in their vanity cases. What's

q PEAKER GARNER GER
~ tainly must have put the
fear of the Lord into the
hearts of the Hooverites in
that brief speech at Dallas.
Any time any man casts a
pebble in the direction Of
the sacred herd and tells the
truth about the domination
of government by the privi-
legged during the last twelve
years, he must expect to be
blackguarded. The stone
thrown by Garner must have
hit; there has been bowling
ever since.
Thus he is being pictured
as a wild-eyed radical by
people and papers that know
better, because of what7
There was just one thing in
that Dallas speech to throw
the sacred herd into hysteria.
Mr.. Garner bluntly said that
Mr.. Hoover probably de-
layed the signing Of a GER
tain measure until he could
consult Wall Street.
Now Mr.. Hoover has con-
suited Wall Street, and par
ticularly one house on Wall
Street, many times, as we
all know and he has a right
to do so. Mr.. Morgan is an
American citizen. So why
the hysteria? Unless there
is a mortal fear Of someone
showing that Mr.. Hoover has
not consulted the interest of
any element except that Of
Wall Street.
The volume Of the bowling
and jeering measures the
fear. The general black
guarding Of the great
Speaker Of the House really
is merely an attempt to in
timidate the Democrats into
silence on many things in
which the people are inter-
ested.
