SOVIET OMISSION PROTESTED.
Newspaper Doubts Farley viii Have

MOSCOW. April 13 lP.-A protest at
the omission Of Soviet Russia from the
international economic conversations to
be held at Washington was sounded
yesterday by the Newspaper for Indus
trialization. The paper declared that
either the participants expect to achieve
little or they are striving for objects
which it would be awkward to discuss
in the presence Of Soviet representa-
tive"
1T is incomprehensible, said the
newspaper, "how it would be possible
to discuss world economic problems with
any chance Of success without Soviet
Russia How can they talk Of an inter-
national agreement to control the wheat
market without one Of the most impor-
tant exporters? How can they outline
seriously yays to expand the interna-
tional turnover without the participa-
ton of country which occupies one

PAY INCREASES
REALLY CUTS

Expected pay increases to per-
sonnel of the local relief organiza-
ton, in line with suggestions
from the Federal Government,
has proved to be merely a jug
Cling of figures, resulting in
actual cuts to many workers, it
developed today.
Some time ago Alan Johnstone,
field representative of the Fed
eral Emergency Relief, and Harry
Hopkins, director of the same
unit, told local relief heads that
the work here must be reor-
ganized and centralized, after
which the Federal Government
would "see the District through" !"
AS a result of that reorganiza-
ton the salary of Leroy A. Hal
bert, District director of emer-
gency relief, was increased from
$4,000 to $4,000 per year, 20 case
workers were given increases from
5000 per year to $1,000, and 80
class B clerks were raised from
5000 to $1,000.
These increases were offset,
however, by reductions in the pay
of employees of the committee on
employment, which was ia ke n
over by the emergency relief unit
under the reorganization. Thir-
teen clerks in this unit who, un-
der the old stepup received $25 per
week, or about $1,000 per year,
have been cut to $3.50 per week,
less retirement pay, which leaves
t h EN- $18.85 per week. Their
duties are the same as those of
payroll clerks in the office Of
Auditor Daniel Donovan, who re-
! ceive $1,620 per year.

BILLY
Buy Now Campaign Booms
Local Theater Business

Like the jewelry trade, the
movie business is a good barome-
ter of how much money the public
has to spend.
Therefore, in studying the ef-
fects of the NRA and the Buy in
September" campaign, the Wash
ington Times has interviewed Of
ficials of several local film thea
ters, to determine whether there
has been an increase in business.
Patronage Rises
The result is highly encourag-
ing for everyone who is wishing
for better times. More folks are
going to the movies now than in
the same period last year. Wash
ington theatrical figures report
that there is a noticeable up
swing, and that novie-goers seem
more happy and care-free than
they have been for many months.
This can mean but one thing
that the NRA and the BUY
in September" campaign, being
conducted by The Times and
other Hearst newspapers, are a
success.
People More Cheerful
Not so very long ago, says
Hardie Meakin, of RKO-Keith's
Theater, people walked glumly
into movie houses as though they
desired to forget their grief.
But now? Listen to his state
ment:
Folks enter theaters today
laughing and joking. They ap-
pear as if they have lost all
thoughts of hard times. The
Transformation from worry to
complete, happy confidence is
really startling"
Adding that business has been
excellent recently, Meakin re-

SCIENCE YIELDS
To VINEGAR

The Fire Rescue Squad may
have the very latest developments
that medical science has to offer.
But sometimes the old-fashioned
remedies are just as good.
Last night Detective Sergeant
r, A. Fitzgerald, 38, of the 200
block Farragut st. N. W., was
stricken with an attack of acute
indigestion. The rescue squad was
summoned to his home.
But before the squad arrived
Mrs. Fitzgerald had administered
the old-fashioned remedy of soda
and vinegar and the squad found
further treatment unnecessary.

ports that the upturn began just
a few weeks ago.
Carter Barron, city manager
for the Loew theaters here, in
cluding the Fox, Palace and Co
lumbia, asserts:
Business has started up
ward. In August the number
of movie gOers began to show
a marked increase, even better
than the same period last
year. think your Buy in
September drive is a splendid
thing"
That prosperity is on the way
is also the belief of John j. Pay
cite, of the Warner Brothers The
aters, which include the Earle
and Metropolitan down town and
many neighborhood houses. Stat
ing that his organization "has no
kick coming and is very optimls'
tic," Payette adds:
"The buy campaign you are
sponsoring is an excellent idea.
I believe that it has already
done much good"
Pickup Is General
Washington is not unique in
showing gains in movie business,
reports Sidney B. Lust, manager
of several local film theaterS, in
stating that movie proprietors
from many sections of the coun'
try have told him of things pick
ing up in the last few weeks"
To put back into industry the
added expense it has contracted
in adopting NRA principles, and
to keep the wheels of our eco
nomic welfare moving faster and
faster, all that is it necessary for
any citizen to do is:
"Buy in September and Buy
American!"
