MEMPHIS, Tenn, November l8.-
Tennessee's first major clash with the
administration at Washington, coming
this week In double dose, is awaited
with interest by political leaders. Not
only is the clash expected to have a
decided effect on public sentiment, but
how far the public recovery program
viii be affected is a matter Of con-
siderable interest.
The first blow came with the an
nouncement that the Federal seed loar
office at Memphis would be closed De.
cember l.: and the second came with
the removal by Secretary Ickes Of Col
Harry s. Berry, State engineer of the
Public Works Administration.
Closing Of the seed loan Office will
throw out Of employment 500 people
about 400 of whom are working In the
central ONCE In Memphis. The plaIl
is to transfer the operations to Louisville
where they will be handled by the Fed
eral Land Bank. Whether any OF the
present employees will be transferred Is
not yet known, though the opinion has
been expressed that the ONCE here will
simply be closed, and the seed loar
operation will cease to function.

How Pennsylvania will tax liquor seems

pated through 50 tax on each Of the

 9O's, Has Strong Cast

".She Done Him Wrong" Para mount sensation starring the se- ductive Mae West which attract ed crowds to the Capitol Theatre yesterday, is played against the colorful and glamorous background of New York's Bowery in the gay sos.
 Mae West. most Jaiked-of actress on the stage and screen, plays the role of Lady Lou" singer along the famous Bowery, street of scarlet memories, who has a way with men and who accepts their attentions in return for dia- monds, with such great popularity that her collection is worth the ransom of several kings.
 Miss West, who is authoress as well as actress and singer, wrote the play herself and for the first time appears on the screen in the characterization that has made her the toast of Broadway. Her seductive voice, that with her blond, rounded beauty is one of her great lures, is used to good effect in "She Done Him Wrong" and she sings three songs, Frankie and Johnny" "A Man What Takes His Time" and Haven't Got No Peace of Mind" as only Mae West can sing.
 The picture has created a sensa- tion among audiences and movie critics, and Mae West herself is taking Hollywood by storm and creating an entirely new style of beauty in the film capital, where so much is imitation of the suc- cessful ones.
 Among the men Miss West "does" in this feature are, Cary Grant, Noah Beery, David Landau, Gilbert Roland and Owen Moore.

HER THREE DAYS
GIFT OF VISION

Helen Keller has been asked BY
the New York Herald Tribune what
she would do with the hours if she
were given three days of relief from
blindness:
"On the first day | should want to
see the people whose kindness and
gentleness have made my life worth
living.
II do not know what it is to see
into the heart of a friend through
that window of the soul, the eye.
DO not most of you seeing people
grasp casually the outward features
of a face and let it go at that? For
instance. can you describe accurate
ly the faces of five good friends?
Some of you can, but many cannot.
81 should let my eyes rest, too, on
the face of a baby, so that could
catch vision of the eager, innocent
beauty which precedes the individ-
ual's consciousness of the conflicts
which life develops.
"And should like to look into the
loyal trusting eyes of my dogs-tbe
grave. canny little Scottie, Darkie,
and the stalwart, understanding
Great Dane, Helga, whose warm,
tender and playful friendships are
so comforting to me.
"Also | want to see the warm
colors in the rugs under my feet, the
pictures on the walls. the intimate
trifes that transform house into
home. MY eyes would rest respect
fully on the books in raised type
which have read, but they would
be more eagerly interested in the
printed books, revealing to me the
deepest channels of human life and
the human spirit.
"In the afternoon of another day.
should take a long walk in the
woods and intoxicate my eyes on the
beauties of the world of nature, trying
desperately to absorb in few hours
the vast spendor which is constantly
unfolding itself to those who can see.
On my return home, might see the
patient horses blowing a field. Per-
maps should see only a tractor!
And should pray for a colorful
sunset"
Art galleries, parks, women's fash
ion marts, Fifth and Park avenues,
the slums and factories-all these
Helen Keller would see in her mag
zeal three days of light before
returning to her peaceful and Gre
alive darkness.
