"Symphony Of Six Million"
Now Playing at Keith's.

sNS" Il ANyAh6 AZ AACAth o.
NJ ISS FANNY HURST may
M well be satisfied with what
V the films have done with
4 i her story, Symphony of
Six Million" currently
being shown at R-K-O Keith's. Di-
rector Gregory La Cava has treated
the material with unprecedented
shrewdneSS and tenderness, and the
actors may be said all together to
for the best all-around cast OF the
season. The result is that Miss
Hurst's lachry NOSE fable Of
young doctor, who was pushed from
his idealiStic conceptions of his art
into a pulse-holding Park avenue
medical Office for neurotic females.
is a moving, even narrowing, fllm,
which will make giant audiences
shed giant tears.
Chief among its virtues is musl-
cal score, arranged by Max steiner,
which is so full of Hebraic folk
music and sob music that, as Mr..
Hans Kinder explained. you can't
help but cry" Mr., Kinder, after an
early morning preview OF the f1lm,
stood outside of the theater, his
eyes pufIed with tears, saying, Il
have never been so narrowed" Be-
tween efforts at normal breathing
and thinking, he explained that the
playing of augmented seconds" in
music of this sort is guaranteed to
make congregations cry-and. when
they play nothing but augmented
seconds-oh-yoy-yo and the able
symphonic leader showed the wear
and tear he had undergone while
viewing this film, and said that he
was going to find a lone bench in
the park and try to recuperate from
his early morning tear fest.
There is no question that there
is more than an average quantity OF
hokum introduced to bring about
this hysteria. Nevertheless, while
you may object to seeing a young
doctor operate on his father land
kill HIM and on his sweetheart
(and make her WelD within 10 or
Is minutes, there is nothing to pre-
vent you from giving way to an
emotion brought about by the
sincerity of the players, and the
directed them.
Ricardo Cortez, long the most
obvious smoothly on the market,
proves himself in this hkable and
capable actor. who can rise to great
things when the opportunity presents
itself. Free from hair oil and long
distance oglings, he presents himself
as an ideal choice for the young
Jewish doctor who prefers to work in
the Ghetto rather than travel into
STYLISH fame. Anna Appel and
Gregory Ratoff are two other actors
who are particularly outstanding,
although Irene Dunno limps around
believably enough as the heroine
cripple, whose spine is finally set
right by the '.million-dollar" surgeon
hands of her lover.
All of these work ably together
for the perfection OF this film, which
should be viewed not only to hear
MIR. Kindler's augmented seconds,
but because the whole thing is Gin
its particular field a real work OF
art. E. de s. MELCHER.

BROTHER TO PLACE

Petitions in North Dakota
Prepared by Relative
of Governor.

BERTHOLD, N. Oak, January az
A farmer who finds Wsnter work bit
slack right now set about electing his
brother President today.
Permission to enter Gov. w. H.
(Alfalfa Bib Murray in the State pri-
mary election hasn't come yet. But
self dirt farmer" says he is
certain the Governor will speak af-
firmatively before voters express them
selves March IS.
In his home community Murray has
been active in politics, local and State.
Now he believes Brother Bilr' is the
man to lead the Nation to better times
He plans an active campaign for the
close relative he hasn't seen in 25
years.
Petitions to Be Circulated.
The immediate project is circulation
of petitions so the Governor may be
entered as a Democratic candidate be
fore the February 13 filing dead line.
MufEay anticipated no difficulty.
Il am doing this" he said, mot only
because I think my brother is deserv-
ing of the nomination, but because l
believe him to be most competent Tor
the office.
He knows every word in the Fed
eral Constitution and helped frame the
constitution of the State of Oklahoma.
Besides. he has had wide experience
in public office, including his terms in
Congress.
"A man can't go wrong if he knows
what's in the Constitution and Will
liam H is one of the keeneSt COnSti-
tutional minds In the country today.
Looks Like Brother.
Murray, a North Dakotan 80 years,
looks much like the Governor. Many
years ago, on a wager, he attended a
meeting of lodge of which William
was member. Even the door guards
couldn't tell them apart.
Today George is clean-shaven, while
Alfalfa Bill has his flowing mus
tache. They we're close friends in boy
hood and George has watched his
brothers political rise with interest,
although far away.

TRUCE In TRUST LAW
URGED UPON HOOVER
Steel Institute He'd Appeals for
Two-Year Suspension to
Aid Business.

BY the Associated Press.
A two-year truce in the antitrust
laws as a wartime measure of relief
was urged upon President Hoover yester-
day by Charles F. Abbott. executive di-
rector by the American Institute Of Steel
Construction.
Abbott said he told the President
destructive competition has driven
prices to unreasonably low levels and
eliminated all trace Of profits"
Something has got to be done" he
said.
In asking for what he said was
emergency relief, Abbott contended
temporary suspension Of the antitrust
laws would allow trade associations to
take steps ito protect stabilization of
conditions without the fear of legal
prosecution that now prevents such
action"
In his regular message to Congress,
President Hoover recommended that
particular attention be given to in
dustries In which destructive competi
ton has produced waste of natural re-
sources and brought great hardships
upon operators, employees and the
public"

at arms in this country, having added
trench mortars to the machine guns
recognized as STANDARD equipment IN
f1rst-class bandit circles,
One of the first things necessary Tor
the restoration of the country, he says
will be to get rid of the excess BAN
dts" leaving the people to worry along
as best they may with what might De
called the average quota.
Sterilization of finances will be an
other matter to be dealt with.
During the last years OF Chang $50
lin, that ruler happened on the idea OF
issuing great quantities of paper money,
Kinney explains, which the farmers
were forced to take in exchange for
their crops, which were in turn disposed
of in Dairen or VladivoStok for silver,
which went in part for the military
establishment and in great proportion
to line the pockets of offiCialdom
Terrific taxation and land rents added
to the distress of the farmers.
Chang Caught Between Fires.
Chang -Hsueh- -nang, son of Chang
Tso-lin. succeeded his father upon the
death of the latter in 1928, and though,

caught between the fire Of opposing
cliques, and the country has suffered
more intensely, Chinese along with for
eigners.
Sentiment has been stirred against
the japanese and the Koreans, who are
subject of Japan, intensifying the
trouble.
The sum total has been chaos. Kin
ney says, and 1t is this condition that
Japan is attempting to iron out.
So far as concerns the part played by
the League of Nations in this instance.
Kinney says that the request for with
drawal Of japanese troops to their own
area could only have been based on a
misunderstanding of existing conditions.
To draw comparison, he said. "if
Americans in the Panama Canal Zone
were being killed by South Ameri-
cans, I don't think this Government
would hold off assistance"
The Japanese investments in Man
churia, he says. total more than two
billion yen, including the South Man
churta Railway, which, he adds, is as

important to Japan as Is the Panama
Canal to the United States. The more
than million Japanese nationals IN
the country, he adds. have farms and
crops that are the result Of toilsome
years.
All this, he concludes, must be pro-
tected, and the Japanese aim has been
to guard against further harm.
AS he sees 1t, the military phase"
of the Japanese movement is over and
now comes the reconstruction period.
Mr.. Kinney, who is at the Mayfiower,
is making one of his triennial trips to
this country from his home, in Darien.
In the course of these Journeys he visits

Golf Analysed
by JOE GLASS.

A very frequent fault in begin
ners is exaggeration of the pivot
in mashie shots. Bear in mind that
during the backswing both feet
should be kept firmly on the ground.
There should not be even the slight
est pivoting on the left toe, although
the outer side Of the left foot may
lift as the inside braces the left
leg when you swing through against
the hip. There will be body turn at
the finish Of the stroke, naturally.
Then the right heel will come up.
Study Bobby Jones Arm foot
position in the sketch. The draw
ing was made when he was at the
top Of mashie swing for short
pitch 1t clearly points the lin
itations of the pivot.
OF course, on a full mashie shot,
