HASTINGS SCORES
CAMPAIGN BOOK
Republican Says New Deal
Pamphlet Stresses U. S.
Expenditures.

The campaign text book recently
issued by the Democratic National
Committee, according to Senator Hast
ines, chairman of the Republican
Senatorial Committee, clearly shows
the Democrats are relying on Dig
Government expenditures in the vari-
GUS States to carry the coming con-
gressional elections for them.
Secretary Ickes is quoted, said Sen
ator Hastings in his statement issued
yesterday, as saying there is no pork
barrel in the P. w. A. when every one
knows that New Deal candidates
throughout the country are brazenly
talking localities-providing they are
elected.
"Ludicrous Claim"
There is even a general statement
that the Roosevelt administration has
kept partisan politics out OF the re-
covery program. This Is ludicrous
statement and everyone knows 1t.
This political pamphlet includes this
very significant statement:
1.-The amount in which each State
participates in this and other forms
of emergency relief is available by
States at Democratic headquarters
and will be supplied upon request
Here is an invitation to those
States which have received huge sums
In benefits from the administration TO
get from the Democratic National
Committee the exact amount so that
argument may be made as was done
in Maine that that is the reason why
the New Deal should be supported"
Cites Difference in Figures.
Senator Hastings also declared the
Democratic campaign book tissue
OF inaccuracies" and that erroneous
claims would be amusing if they were
not so serious. He continued:
Secretary Of the Treasury Morgen-
thau is quoted as saying that the cost
Of the New Deal up to June 80, 1885,
will not exceed $4,000, 900, and in
the same pamphlet the late Speaker Of
the House Henry T. Rainey is quoted
as an authority that it will not cost
more than $15, 900 100000.

MEL0DRAMA
AT COLISEUM
Devil Is Driving Features
Edmund Lowe, Wynne
Gibson, Dickie Moore

The Devil Is Jrivlng," the film
which opened last night at the
Coliseum Theatre, is a finely con-
structed melodrama which fully
lives up to its unusual title and to
the quality of its cast, headed by
such players as Edmund Lowe,
Wynne Gibson, Lois Wilson and
Allan Dinehart.
1t is story of the hot car
racket in New York, and most of
its scenes are laid in the Metro
politan Garage, which serves as a
cache for stolen cars. a speak
easy and hideaway for the head
of the racket. The business of the
garage moves along at its steady,
dangerous pace until one day the
child of the manager is run down
by one of the stolen cars and the
manager sets out for revenge.
The film moves at a terrific pace
to a thrilling climax, and mingles
ribald comedy with its melodrama.
1T is distinguished. further by bril-
liant performances, especially by
Lowe as the wisecracking Gabby,
who finally tracks down the racke-
teers, and by Wynne Gibson as a
lady of his heart.

CREW RACE IS
FEATURED IN
COLLEGE film
Sweetheart of Sigma Chi
Opening Tonight at

not a musical; college story that
for the first time in motion pic
ture history does not concern itself
with football, baseball, basketball.
cross country or track meet con-
tests-but features, for the first
time on the talking screen an eight
cared shell race, enacted by 80
youths of brain and Drawn, as its
smashing climax.
That, in brief, describes Sweet
heart of Sigma Chi Monogram S
most recent production which opens
at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
Although somewhat submerged
by the productions entertainment
features, the plot is cohesive and
holds interest throughout. Briefly,
1T concerns Vivian, flirtatious CO.

as "the sweetheart of Sigma CHS

fraternity Vivian centers her at

win the race for Rawley and per-
manently captures the affections
of the girl he loves.
Mary Carlisle as Vivian and
Buster Crabbe, who plays Bob
North, manage to extract every
ounce of charm and humor out of
their roles. The pleasing impress
sion they make is augmented by
the excellent work of the support
ing principles including Charles
