Today and Thursday Everyone

tells the inside story of those who
join the "get-acquainted clubs" to
find the romance life has denied
them. You'll brush a tear away at
the appealing picture of the sex
starved loneliness of these spin
sters, widows, widowers and bach
elors whose need for love has made
business of cupid's game. Mar
jorie Rambeau and Edward Ellis,
as the proprietors of the Lonely
Hearts Club, seek to fulfill the
need of the clubs members. With
them is Dorothy Jordan, as their
ward An Eastern gangster, play
ed by Louis Calhern, tries to
muscle in" on the club and con-
vert the legitimate business into
blackmailing racket. He kills a
wealthy widow for her jewels,
tries to plant the crime on Ellis
and attempts to abduct Mary. It's
the first time the screen has pic
tured the story of these Lonely
Hearts clubs whose membership is
widespread through this country.
Friday and Saturday." Bondage"
the new Fox picture depicting one
of the most vital problems of the
day, gives the audience a gener-
Gus treat of dramatic entertain
ment. It is a powerful story Of
the youth of today in search of
happiness, its attainment of unex-
pected and disturbing results, and
the coldness shown by the world
that turns its back on their pain.
Dorothy Jordan as the young girl
who falls for crooner gives a per
formance that is unmatched by
anything she has ever done. She
rises to dramatic heights never be
fore thought to be within her act
ing scope. She gives a lift to the
picture that bespeaks a keen I'M
derstanding Of acting for the
\ screen.

transference from the medium of
the stage to that Of the talking
\ screen, the Fox Film production Of
Il Loved You Wednesday" proves
perfect screen entertainment Its
action, its scintillating dialogue
and its piquant characterizations
are ali brightly enhanced by the
fuidity Of the all-seeing camera.
The cast that Fox has gathered to
portray the principal roles of the
screen play, represents one of the
happiest pieces of selection in re-
cent months. Warner Baxter is
powerful and suave as the engi-
neer; ELISA Landi is beautiful and
alluring as the dancer who wins
his heart. AS the faithless lover,
Victor Jory gives weight to his
promise of becoming one Of the
screens shining lights, and Miriam
his charming but neglected wife.
Laura Hope Crews does wonders
with a highly amusing part Of
masseuse to a great dancer. The
story starts with the early love Of
the dancer for an untrustworthy
student of architecture. It is car

Won Salviati, member of a former

stead of the present sanity trial.
He admitted he had interviewed

AKRON PROBERS
HEAR EXPERT

Rapid development of a much
needed forward elevator rudder
for airShips may be one of the
results Of the. Akron disaster.
Jerome C. Hunsacker, vice
president of the Goodyear Zep-
pelin Corporation which built the
ill-fated ship, told the Navy
court inquiring into the crash
that such an elevator would
eliminate some of the danger in
maneuvering big airliners at low
attitudes. Structural and stream
line difficulties have impeded
progress up to the present.
The trouble with aft or rear
elevators, Hunsacker explained,
is that they point the nose of air.
ships upward when it is desired
to ascend by the simple process
of offering resistance surface
to the wind which shoves the
tail downward. An efficient for
ward elevator, up near the nose
of the ship, he continued, would
point the nose up without push
ing the aft end down.

MORGAN BACKS
GOLD EMBARGO

NEW YORK, April 20 GNS.)
President Roosevelt's embargo or
gold shipments was indorsed by
j. P. Morgan, famed financier, ir
one of his rare public statements
issued after the Presidents order
was announced in Washington.
In a written statement, Mr.
Morgan said:
81 welcome the reported ac-
tfOn' of the President and the
Secretary Of the Treasury in
placing an embargo on gold ex-
ports.
ut has become evident that
the effort to maintain the ex-
change value of the dollar at
a premium, as against depre-
ciated foreign currencieS, was
having a deflatiOnary effect
upon already severely deflated
American prices and wages and
employment.
"It seems to me clear that
the way out of the depression
is to combat and overcome the
deflatiOnary forces. Therefore,
I regard the action now taken
rs being the best possible course
under existing circumstances"
The statement was the first Mr..
Morgan has issued publicly since
September, 1881, when England
abandoned the gold standard.
AT that time, he characterized the
move as constructive under ex-
listing circumstances.

Tries Comeback

HOUSTON, Tex, Aug. 5. U.H-
Ross S. Sterling, former governor
of Texas and once one of the
states Wealthiest men, has started
a comeback as an oil millionaire,
his friends here believe.
Sterling's name crept back into
print recently when he was listed
as manager of the Miramar Oil
Corporation, whose No. l Phoenix
we'll in the Hull field, Liberty coun-
ty, was completed as producer.
1t was one of the few times Ster-
ling's name appeared in public
since his defeat for governor by
Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson last sum-
mer sent him into Seclusion.
! 1t was on the flood of oil from
the Humble field that Sterling
then a feed store operator, rose to
wealth.
After he resigned as chairman
of the Humble Oil & Refining COM
pany, which he helped found, and
became governor, his fortune be-
gan to decline.

Rurnanian Maze
Crop Retarted

BUCHAREST, Aug. S. U.H-Cold
and rain after a generally favorable
winter have combined to produce
pessimistic forecasts for the Ru-
manian maize crop
Farming districts and the min
istry of agriculture both report that
the unusually long cold spell in
April seriously retarded develop
ment and in some cases retarded
early cultivation three weeks. There
followed the rainiest May in de-
cades, and the crop was unable to
make up lost ground.
There were districts where it was
impossible to begin cultivation, and
the acreage available for fodder
was reduced by a percentage it is
still impossible to estimate.
In many localities the ground
Imperial Valley press. (El Centro, Calif.) 1907-current, 1933-08-05

became so soaked that it formed a
kind of crust over the young
shoots, which prevented them from
gaining the benefit of the warm
weather. Government agencies have
urged all farmers to loosen the soil
so as to remove the crust.
1t is feared, however, that in
many cases the advice will not be
followed because of an unwilling
ness of the "dirt farmers to &C
cept innovations, and that delay
ir hoeing until the usual date will
have a bad effect on the crop.
