Although the custom as it

From the time l read the script
I must become that person, if
the performance is to be con-

the final scene.
In my current picture with
Clark Gable, "Chained," I play
a modern girl who, out of a
tangle of circumstances, has
mistaken respect for love, un-
til she really meets love face

CHURCH LEADERS
VISIT EINSIEDELN
Famous Swiss Pilgrimage Resort
Is Celebrating l,000th An.
niversary.

Roman Catholic Church dignitaries
and visitors from all parts of the
world are in constant evidence at
Einsiedeln, Switzerland, the noted pill
ggrimage resort, which is celebrating
the 1,OOoth anniversary of its found
ing this year. The great Benedictine
Abbey owes its origin as a spiritual
retreat to st. Meinrad, son of a
Swabian count, who established him
self in a hermit'S cell on this site in
the ninth century. The Abbess Of
Zurich had given him a miracle
working statue of the Virgin and
Child. from which he never parted.
Strange to say, this image of
the Madonna has remained intact
throughout the ages, although con-
flagrations and war destroyed the
original buildings and many treasures.
The statue, although blackened by
fire, now occupies a place of honor
in the black marble chapel of the
church, and every year thousands of
devout pilgrims journey to Einsiedeln
to offer it their alteration.
Impressive religious observances will
be held Sunday. October IA, st. Mein-
RAIDS feast, which win see the final of
the millenarian festivities.

BRITAIN To BUILD

Electric Railway Across
Transjordan to Open Tour
ist Possibilities.

The announcement this week Of
the British governments plan for the
immediate construction of a new rail-
way project to begin at Haifa and
extend across the Transjordan TO the
remote regions in Persia has stirred
a new awakening to tourists possi-
bilities in the Near East. The plan
to parallel the great biblical rivers Of
the Tigris and Euphrates with electric
engines has already brought a changed
attitude of mind from native COM
munities, according to steamship and
tourist officials who see Haifa and
Palestine the center Of expanding
arteries in the new empire develop
ment.
NO project since the Suez Canal
has offered possibilities of such q
trade and tourist boom for all east
ern Mediterranean coast ports" said
one travel authority.
Silhouetted against the horizon Of
the Syrian desert moves the camel
caravan of the East, which already
has symbol Of twentieth century
transportation, paralleling the course
by the newly entrenched pipe line
to carry oil from Kirkuk to the Medi-
terranean, 467 miles from the rich
Iraq region to this same Eastern
Palestine seaport. The projected rail-
way lines. to cost more than 1000, ,e66
pounds, will make Haifa the western
terminal. The old biblical coast city,
with its influx of Jewish colonists and
capital, is already being transformed
into an industrial port.
From Haifa the railway line will
extend across the Jordan to the desert
regions and then climb abruptly to
the tableland now occupied under
British protection by the Arab emirate
of the transjordan. This is a fertile
territory inhabited by a sparse pop
ulation Of nomads. In the days of
the Roman Empire 1t was known as
the Decapolis, and was densely in
habited, as shown by the numerous
ruins of the cities with their remnants
Of roads and acqueducts.
The Transformation which Is af-
fecting the coastal cities and which
is everywhere making itself mani
tested in Palestine is now rapidly ex-
tending all along the route from Iraq
to the Mediterranean. where the pipe
line evokes the wonder and admira-
ton Of the natives. Oil seems destined
to revolutionize the life of the desert.
The Bedouin Is also being transformed
from a raider to a laborer. and be-
lieVes the new railway project will
doubly hasten the Western influence.

Responsibility For Funds Due
U. S. Treasury Will Rest
With The Packers

Farmers who slaughter hogs for
sale to retailers or other commercial
handlers will no longer be compelled
to stand responsible for the process
ing tax, according to the Agricultural
Adjustent Administration. DR.. T.
B. Symons, director of the University
of Maryland Extension Service, says
that the tax will now fall upon the
packer and the commercial handler.
DIR. Symons explained that the
farmer who slaughters his own hogs
and sells directly to the consumer
not more than 300 pounds of the
products during any marketing year
is not required to pay any tax. If
he sells up to 1000 pounds he is
liable to taxation on the difference
over 300 pounds. If he sells over
1000 pounds he loses his 300 pounds
exemption and is liable for the tax
on all products sold from hogs.
Any farmer who processes hogs
for consumption by his own family,
employees or household is exempt from
payment of the tax.

Farmers Urged To Buy
Land Before Spectators
Begin Large Operations

Charles S. Jackson, president of
the Federal Land Bank of Baltimore,
has just made public friendly warn
ing to farmers who are interested in
buying more farm land, stating that
among purchasers of land bank farms
during the past few months are sew
eral spectators and real-estate deal
ers.
although most of the purchasers
of land bank farms have been farm
ers," Mr.. Jackson said, "our records
show that spectators and real estate
dealers are becoming more and more
actively interested in farm lands"
Mr.. Jackson said that Of the 81
farms sold by the land bank of Bal
timore in the period from Sept. rs
through Nov. 1, 5 were bought as in
vestments rather than as business en-
terprises. Nine Of these 81 purchasers
do not plan to make their living from
the land they have bought; they have
occupations other than farming by
which they earn their living.
Mr.. jackson pointed out that those
farmers who contemplate the pur-
chase of more farm land will do well
to buy before spectators and real
estate dealers begin their operations
on larger scale.
