NORTHERN AIR LANE
FACES TROUBLE. IN
HALLSOF CONGRESS
Appropriation For ligh tin G
Route Through Bismarck
May be Defeated

Washington, May 5.-(P)-A provi-
sion for establishing a lighted airway
from Minneapolis to Seattle, written
into the commerce department sup
ply bill by the senate, appears DOOM
ed to defeat.
In calling for conference on the
measure-which covers four depart
ments of the governmcnt-hcuse
leaders pointed to this item as the
most Objectionable" change made by
the senate in the course of securing
a 10 per cent reduction in the bills
total.
The provision was inserted when
the senate reduced by 100000 the
appropriation for Always under the
commerce department and then spec
flied that the remaining 100000
should be applied entirely to this one
line.
1T is the most Objectionable of all
amendments inserted in the BILL"
said Chairman Byrns of the house
appropriations committee, land its
elimination is the chief reason for
sending the bill to conference"
Representative Oliver of Alabama,
chairman Of the subcommittee that
drafted the bill, held it illogical" to
curtail the total drastically and then
limit the remainder to establish IAN
entirely new route not even suggest
ed by the budget"
He said the commerce department
had not recommended it.

ALBERT B. FALL TO

SENTENCE IS ENDED
One Time Cabinet Officer Will
Not be Required to Expiate
Heavy Fine

Washington, May 5-R)-Depart-
ment Of justice authorities will see to
it that Albert B. Fall goes free next
Sunday.
Warden E. B. Swope of the New
Mexico state penitentiary Thursday
was directed by Attorney General
Mitchell to free Fall at the expiration
of the term for which he was SEN
fenced.
Swope had raised a question as to
whether Fall should be freed in view
Of his failure to pay the fine Of $780,
00O imposed along with the prison
sentence. The former secretary of the
interior was convicted of accepting a
bride while member OF the Harding
Cabinet in 1922.
Normally fines must be paid before
release, or pauper's oath must be
taken, followed by brief confinement
to work out the fine.
But, the justice officials explained.
Falls sentence was worded differently
and does not exact payment Of the
fine as the price of freedom. If tn.
fine remains unpaid they can obtain
Judgment against HI m, although
they did not say this would be done.
The one time cabinet member, only
man to go to prison as result of the
naval oil lease scandals of the Hard
ing regime. began his prison term last
June. With time off for good behay-
ior, 1t expires May 8, Sunday.

Brilliance of Former N. d.
Girl Puts Ne1u Drama Ouer
Dorothy Stickney's Acting Sup
plies Punch Needed by
New York Show
Tribune Special Service)

New York City. May 5.-Superlative
acting by Miss Dorothy Stickney,
formerly OF Dickinson, N. D., has helped
put across with a bang the new
play, Another Language" and elevate
its author, Mrs. Rose Franken, from
domestic obscurity to Broadway prom
inence.
Miss Stickney. who took the leading
role in the drama, was born at Dick
inson, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
v. H. Stickney, both Of whom are now
dead.
A sister of Miss Stickney, Mrs A. P.
Natchwey. still resides at Dickinson.
Miss Stickney was educated in Dick
inson schools before coming east as
young girl to study dramatics.
She has not confined her activities
to the legitimate stage but also has
appeared in several cinema produc-
lions.
It took the brilliant performance Of
North Dakota's most prominent gift
to Broadway to bring to Mrs. Frank
ems play the recognition it really de-
served. And now the author, mother
Of three children. finds herself hailed
as the most important new playwright
on the Broadway horizon.
Turned Down Often
The story behind the production of
Another Language" is a repetition Of
that favorite Broadway legend-next
to the Cinderella stories-of manu-
script that went kicking around the
producers offices, turned down by all
and sundry.
Had it not been accepted by Arthur
J. Beckhard. beginner in the pro-
duction field. Miss Stickney might
never have had the opportunity to put
it over.
Without exception critics have de-
clared Mrs. Franken's play to be the
most deftly written and dialogued
American home-life play in something
like a generation. The families con-
cerned in the play talk and act and
are characterized in a fashion that
makes them recognizable to visitors
from the Bronx. Second Avenue,
Charleston, Atlanta, New Orleans and
BoZemar.
Has Fictional Touch
The story behind this newest SEN
sation has the same fictional touch
that accompanied the entrance, for
instance, of Broadway"
Beckhard is concert agent and is
not Of the commercial theatre. Last
season he summered at Greenwich,
Conn.,. and having time on his hands
and you on his mind he decided to
run a vacation time stock theater. A
number of performers signed up, but
Beckhard wanted to try out plays that
had never seen the light Of night.
He corresponded with few agents
in New York. soliciting manuscripts.
It so happened that four years ago
Rose Franken had turned loose the
manuscript for Another Language"
on an astigmatic flock of theater folk.
Almost every manager and play read
er, including the Theater Guild. had
taken look at 1t. At one time Philip
Goodman had thought SO much of 1t
that he took an option. held 1t around
for time and then changed his mind.
Ready For Wastebasket
The manuscript had drifted back
to the agents and was on the very
edge of the wastebaskets when Beck
hard's request arrived. 1t was sent to
him with others. Being q mere man
