ST. PAUL, Oct. 10. WD = The
threat of national farm strike
was heard again today as the
wheat-growing states of the north
west and their sister states of Iowa
and Wisconsin grumbled at the
failure of farm products to reach
cost-of production levels in response
to the government S agricultural
program.
In Wisconsin and Minnesota. the
Farmers Holiday Association, most
militant of farm organizations,
quietly has been polling its local
units for sentiment on such a
strike. The result, the United
Press was told today, has been
strongly in favor of the move.
xhis puts squarely before the di-
rectors OF the Holiday association
the problem of deciding whether
the time is opportune for such a
strike. One was called last May,
but was rescinded to "give Roose-
velt a chance
Today Governor Floyd B. Olson
of Minnesota, on whose Judgment
northwest farm leaders place great
weight, was quoted as limiting that
a national farm strike would be
called soon and would result in
forcing the administration to Fix

Dairy farmers would be the
strongest allies of the Holiday as

the time is ripe for q national
strike
The Farmers Holiday association
of North Dakota is behind the
wheat embargo which Governor
William H." LANCER of that state
made effective at 1901 am. today
and is urging its members to back
up the governor by withholding
wheat from shipment outside the
state.
LANCER is acting under a state
law giving him authority whenever
wheat prices reach "unconscion-
able', levels. His motive, he says,
is to force the government to peg
prices in some way.

JOlSOn Sensation in
His Latest Picture

Al Jolson. who five years ago
launched major revolution with the
first talking picture, appears to have
caused new sensation in "Hallelu.
jah, I'm Bum the United Artists
picture at the Paramount theater.
For, in this production. the famed
comedian has introduced an entirely
new screen technique. one which In Its
turn might prove as revolutionary as
did the first talkie.
At its opening yesterday. the picture
was not two minutes old when one
could see at glance that it bears out
all the advance informa ton about it.
From the very beginning Jolson and
his stellar supporting cast put their
story over in what. for want of bet
ter term, might be called musical
conversation" Perhaps rhythmic
dialogue" would be nearer the point.
But, whatever the term, suffice to
say that in 80 per cent of the picture
the characters carry along their plot
on the wings of lifting song and
spoken rhyme, the rhyme being the
most free form Of verse imaginable
And it's as light as a feather, too.
Jolson. portraying character the
like Of which he never before has at
tempted, is revelation in the role of
Bumper" leader of the vagabonds
Discarding his blackface, he plays A
straight role whose poignancy and
comedy alternately twang the heart
strings and give one a pain from
laughing.

who makes his latest screen appear

In UniversalS Private JONES'" has
baffled the analysts who endeavor to
reduce every Hollywood personality to
terms Of the average
Tracy, as natural off the screen, and
as dynamic as he Is on, refuses to SUBJ
scribe to popular diversions, beliefs,
and modes of conduct. He insists on
doing what he wants to do and when
and although censure has been di-
rected at his confident self, he refuses
to let even that perturb him.
The ebullient actor Is single-never
married because he hasn't found the
time. He doesn care much about
women except his mother, whom he
calls Ma. Love he considers a
"delusion,' although he admits no
great sorrow or thwarted romance He
doesn't care about associating with
Hollywood's great: instead he seeks
out people who amount to little. He
refuses to roll about the streets in 4

up in preparation to returning to the

Application for a special permit
to escape provisions of the Satur-
day midnight closing law in con-
nection with the holding of the
Inaugural Ball at Washington Au-
ditorium on March 4 will be made
today to Major Ernest w. Brown,
superintendent of police.
Mrs. John Allen Daugherty,
chairman of the ball committee,
stated that she had been mindful
of the closing law provisions for
some time and had taken the
matter up with counsel for the
inaugural committee.
No Hitch Seen
The Di strict Commissioners
granted a permit in November,
1881, and waved provisions of the
regulation for special occasion
by approving permit issued
through the police chief. 1t is
likely that similar action will be
taken in conjunction with the
Inaugural Ball.
Admiral Cary T. Grayson, gen.
eral chairman of the inaugural
committee, announced the ap-
pointment of Robert N. Harper,
local banker and prominent Demo
crat, as marshal of the fourth di-
vision Of the inaugural parade.
The division which Colonel
Harper will command is likely to
be the most colorful in the
parade. 1t will include political
marching clubs and official State
delegations from virtually every
State in the country.

CHANGE ASKED
FOR MANSION

A descendant of two of Amer

and a former Minister of Spain,
appeared before the District
Commissioners today to ask that
his imposing mansion be trans
formed into an apartment house.
He was Perry Belmont, 81,
grandson of Commodore Mathew
Calbraith Perry, who opened the
ports of Japan, and great nephew
of Oliver Hazard Perry, of Lake
Erie. He is head of the famous
Belmont family of New York.
After counsel for the Belmont
interests and representatives of
the Dupont Circle Citizens Asso-
citation had presented arguments
before the board, Mr.. Belmont,
still erect and of aristrocratic
bearing, arose and said:
I'm here as the result of
an experience which / hope
none of you will have. I would
rather see my mansion on New
Hampshire Avenue in use by
suitable, high class tenants
than to see it stand idle as a
monument to the depression"
