COMPROMISE BONUS
BILL BEING DRAWN
Continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
Roosevelt leaders on Capitol
Hill are expected to ignore the
bonus question as long as possible
but when it becomes live issue
they will move forward with the
compromise plan. The admins
tration will no doubt be able to
put through its bill although a
strong fight will be waged for i'm
mediate payment of the face
value of the certificates with a
new issue of currency. One of
the biggest battles in the new
congress will revolve around the
bonus question.
The period for World war vet
Grams to file applications for ad-
justed service certificates expires
on January 2.
A number of veterans have
never asked for their certificates
and if they let January 2 go by
without filing a request they will
forfeit their right to secure the
bonus. Veterans must establish
their service connection. If the
veteran is dead the amount OF his
service adjusted credit becomes
PAYABLE to his dependents in the
following order: Widow, children,
mother, father. A widow who has

SISTER MARY'S MENU
BY MARY E. DAGUE
NEA Service Staff Writer


THE success of any holiday or
i guest dinner depends largely
upon the roast.
And inasmuch as the holiday
season is just around the corner
a list of suitable sauce and roast
combinations seems timely.
Roast beef may be served with
Yorkshire pudding, horseradish
and a brown gravy. Or In the
rarer roast the natural meat juices
may replace the brown gravy.
Filet of beef is served with tart
spiced jam or conserve and musn-
room sauce; lamb with mint jelly
or hot mint sauce, currant jelly or
crabapple jelly and brown gravy;
pork with apple sauce or Gran
berry sauce, no gravy; ham with
Drowned pineapple or a tart rellsn
and hot raisin sauce.
Cranberry sauce or any tart Jam
goes we'll with veal, and brown
gravy helps.
Turkey and chicken, Of course,
need the traditional cranberry
sauce or at least jelly and giblet
gravy. Duck is served with sliced
oranges or currant jelly and
brown gravy or orange sauce, and
goose with apple sauce or Gran
berry sauce and brown gravy OF
mushroom sauce.
Most of the sauces are made on
a brown gravy base.

Monte Cristo Is
Among Great
Film Productions
Preview Shows Donant as
Count; Native Tarheel
Has Strong Part
BY J. T. FAM, JR.

Once every great while among
the many moving pictures produc-
ed there comes one which stands
out above the field, one which is
almost above being entertainment
alone, and one which we feel
should be called to the attention
of the public. The Count of Monte
Cristo, which will be shown here
next week, and which was recent
ly shown to a small group of peo-
pie here in a preview. is, we be-
lieve, one which should be placed
in this class.
The picture, produced around
the well-known romantic novel by
the same name, written by Alex
andre Dumas, the elder, in 1874,
combines one of the greatest stor-
les of all time with an artistic rem
dition by a cast which reaches
heights seldom attained on the
screen in giving to the moving
picture world the characters pro-
duced by Dumas and the great
theme of his story. A'.''
The original novel was publish
ed in IL volumes and necessarily
the picture has been shortened
and the story is not followed to
the letter, but the central plot and
theme of the story runs through
out.
The cast does not bear any of
the greatest names. of the movie
world, but it introduces, we be-
ieve, star who is destined to oc-
cupy a high place in the dramatic
field, in the person of Robert Do
nant, English born, who made his
bow to the American public in a
supporting role in the English
made Henry VIII.
AS Dantes, Mr.. Donant literally
brings to life the Dumas character
with a splendid bit of dramatic
acting. He is ably supported by a
cast which is practically perfect,
even to the least important char
acter. ELISA Landi, remembered
for her work in Sign OF the Cross
and other pictures, gives a good
performance as Mercedes. al
though the role limits her field
for endeayor. .-s
North Carolinians will be espe-
cially pleased with the work of
Sidney Blackmer, a native of
Salisbury, who appears as Monde
go. Louis Calhern, and Raymond
Halburn as De Villefort and
Danglars, arch conspirators with
! Mondego, are ably cast. o. P,
Heggie, as Able Faria, and Will
liam Farnum, screen veteran
also appear at their best.
From start to finish there is alb
solutely nothing in the plot that
could be offensive to any person
The plot, with it's setting of 10th
century intrigue and its back,
ground of Napoleonic history, af
fords enough action and excite
ment for those who love actor
pictures. For. those who prefe,
the more modern philosophical
background in their movie enter
tainment there is a great theme a:
the underlying background of the
plot. And for those who appre
ciate good performance by s
good cast the picture Affords al
/ that could be desired.

lost their homes. Others, who have

WILMINGTON, Del. - From the
brilliant mind of city official, who
apparently is in close contact with
industrial conditions in the city,
comes a solution to the local unem-
ployment problem. He says that our
city's employment is nearly at the
saturation point, and that unless
there is an unforeseen industrial ex-
pansion, there never will be Jobs
fer thousands of unemployed whom
he terms as surplus labor"
In his opinion between 5000 and
5000 men and women, mostly heads
of families, must be aided to get
out of Wilmington and into an in
dustrial area where there is de-
mand for their services. No definite
place was mentioned.
Another pregnant idea was that
many hundreds of them must even

oy a Mine WORKER correspondent
BESSEFIER, Ala work for the
Tuscoda Mine of the T. C. L, where
the Communist Party is busy, and
Wkcre Jack Brown, the company
sheriff, is busy too, but he is not
building the company union very
fast.
Mr.. Ball. the T. C. I. bigshot, came
down to the mine and wanted to
know how long it would be before
the company union would have
enough men to work the mine. Mr..
Brown could not answer this ques-
ton because he did not have enough
men. So, Mr.. Ball said that he
would have to build the company
union faster and if he couldn't
there would be a new sheriff in his
place.
Jack Brown got busy and called
all his thugs together and began to
make new plans. They offered to
give coal to all the workers who
joined the company union, but none
joined because the Communist
Party told them not to fall for the
bosses tricks, because they mean
the workers no good.
After having this meeting, they
called the Negro shack rouster, Will
Jones, who has been there for Is
years. They asked him why the
