KIN 6 KON 6 IS
 NOW SHOWING,
 CAPITOL MOVIE
Prehistoric Monsters Are Seen in Thrilling
 Production

Fortunately for RKO-Radio Pic lures they did not have to feed the prehistoric monsters cast with Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong and Bruce Cabot in king Kong" the Merriam c. Cooper Ernest B Schoedsack ProducIion showing at the Capitol Theatre.
 According to Willis H. OBrien film scientist who created six col ossal creatures for daringly imag- inative scenes in King Kong pre- historic dinosaurs ate themselves out of existence. Easing his opin- ion on paleontological res ar c h into the eating habits of thess monsters, he estimates that the six animals he created in King Kong" would have eaten, during the two years they performed be- fore the camera for the produc- ton, as follows:
 Triceratops, twenty-five feet long and weighing ten tons, would have consumed 10ela tons of food stuffs.
 Brontosaurus, weighing twenty tons, seventy-five feet long, would have eaten 1922 tons of grasses etc, in two years.
 Tyrannosaurus, fifty feet long weighing thirty-five tons, would require 146 tons of hay and 73 tons of flesh.
 Stegorauus, fourteen feet tall and weighing ten tons, would eat 146 tons of hay.
 Pterodactyl, giant flying lizard weighing about a ton with twen- ty-five foot wing spread, would like forty chickens a day, or 29,- 200 in two years.
 At this rate, how much Of a mouthful would dainty Fay Wray have been for Kong if he had chosen to eat her instead of be fascinated by her fragile beauty?
 King Kong" is a fantastic story in which prehistoric and inn aginative monsters are brought in- to conflict with humanity-thirty five millions of years ago shake hands with 1882 A. D.
 Merriam c. Cooper and Edgar Wallace conceived the idea from which James Creelman and Ruth Rose wrote the screen play.

WHAT'S WHAT
at the
CAPITAL
BY HERBERT PLUMMER
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

tlBy Ansocinfed prensl
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-An
ambitious and far-reaching move
ment has been launched quietly
in Washington to protect the con-
Stunning public of the country.
The sponsors are not claiming
miracles. In fact, they are a BIZ
reticent about their efforts. At
the same time they look to the
future with apparently unbounded
confidence.
The Consumers counsel of the
Agricultural Adjustment admins
tration is backing the program.
The purpose is to aid consumers
in understanding price changes,
costs of food and farm commodi-
ties and in making wise and
economical purchases.
Stated in another way, selfish
interests which may take ad-
vantage of the initial period of
economic adjustment by pyramid
ing prices are to be exposed to
the buying public.
Public persecution of such of
tenders is not the idea. Rather,
it is to enlist community support
of merchants of longer vision who
are ready to set aside immediate
gains for the common good.
Helping The Consumer ~
Good results are claimed for
the plan devised to accomplish
this purpose. despite the fact that
it is in its infancy.
Twice a month there goes out
from the office of the Consumers
counsel in Washington to anyone
who wants it a publication known
as the Consumers Guide" It
outlines in detail the change in re-
tail prices of representative foods
in 81 cities of the nation.
While warning is given to the
consumers in each city that they
will not always find their prices
Following the average for the
country, it, is suggested that
"where there is a wide difference
local consumer groups might well
question the justification for the
greater increase"
Thus an opening is afforded the
consumer to ask what might prove
to be questions embarrassing to
some retailers. For example, the
average price for a pound of hut
ter advanced ID cents from Feb
ruary Is to August Is, the coun-
sci reports. Consumers in Port
land. Me-, however. had their price
raised on the average of So cents
higher than any of the other sc
cities in August.
A General Check-up
Similar reports on other repre-
sentative foods are provided.
1t is estimated there are around
100 so-called consumers league.
IN the country allied with the Con
sumers' counsel office here. Other:
are being formed all the time.
"We are finding" one officia
said, that these organizations ar.
making themselves felt. Also
those attempting profiteering OF
the recovery program are becom
ing rather sensitive"

LAG
in new PLAN OF
SsIETS' UNION
RESULTS AFTER SIX MONTHS
OPERATION SHOW INDUS
TRIES FAIL TO MEASURE
UP TO PROGRAM
By STANLEY P. RICHARDSON

4
| MOSCOW, Oct. 5.-Results of
the first six months of operation
Of the Soviet Unions second five
year plan show that the three
most important branches of in
dustry have failed to measure up
to the program.
Despite that the general indus
trial plan for 1888 was much less
ambitious than that for the pre-
ceding year, official figures show
heavy industry, light industry and
railroads substantially behind
schedule.
Gain Over Last Year
i Heavy industry, however had
the satisfaction of seeing IA
percent gain in production COM
pared to the same period in 1882.
Light industry, in which a wide
increase. was contemplated so as
to give the popuiace badly need
ed manufactured goods such as
clothing and household items, bet
tered last years output by less
than one eprcent. =
Transportation fell behind its
1882 mark on the basis of car
loadings.
Heavy industry carried out only
a fraction better than 42 percent
of the full years production pro-
gram, when its accomplishment
should have been SO percent. It's
ltroubles were attributed chiefly to
shortcomings in iron and steel, al
though virtually every major
branch was unable to accomplish
its program.
Tractors In Slow Class
Pig-iron production for the six
months amounted to SO percent of
/ the years schedule of 5000, 900
tons, although it showed an in
crease over the first half of 1882
lof 7.3 percent.
Coal output reached ABB per-
cent of the program of $4,000, 900
tons for the whole year but it,
too, gained 3.9 percent over last
year.
Machine building, which in
cludes the tractor, automobile and
, agricultural combine factories,
fulfilled 44.S percent of the plan
for the year of production valued
at $500, O00,O 900 roubles.
Basic chemical manufacture
reached 43.9 percent of the plan;
| non-ferrous metals 81 percent
and building materials 1871 per-
cent.
Light industry maaged to
achieve 81 percent of its six
months program, resulting in 9
storm of criticism in the Soviet
press which contends that its task
easily was capable of fulfillment
Blame is placed on the generally
bad organization of labor in this
branch.
The glassware and leather in
dustries made the poorest show
ing, carrying out less than rs pei
cent of their half-year plans
Woolens. footwear and dry-goodl
production was 90 per cent of tn,
