TRIO SCORES
FINE HIT IN
LATEST. FILM

A grand acting combination,
thrilling fast-paced and imagin-
atively directed story, and human
and appealing theme, are the eie-
ments that Paramount put into the
making of New and Forever,
now at the United Artists tneatre'
and that make that picture one
of the most thoroughly Ielight1ul
and entertaining hours of film 1are
that have been offered in a lol.g
time.
Romantic Gary Cooper. Carole
Lombard and lovable Shirley Tenn
pie are the three who play out
this tale of a reckless young inter-
national crook, his light OF love
and the child who changes the
whole course of their gay lives.
Shirley Temple Magnificent
1t manages to make the becurleG
and bright-eyed Shirley even more
irresistible than she was in Little
Miss Marker" the picture that
made her the greatest child sensa-
tion. One of the highlights of the
new film is the scene where she
sings "The Grasshopper and the
Frog" hopping abbout to show how
the big, bad froggis goes.
Sir Guy Standing and Char.
1otte Granville, two of the most
competent character players in
Hollywood, have important sup
porting roles.
The story, adapted by Vincent
Lawrence and Sylvia Thalberg
from an original by Jack Kirk
land and Melville Baker, is strong
in intense human quality, which
has been we'll brought out by the
direction of Henry Hathaway.
In Now and Forever" Shirley
Temple strengthens her position
as the new sweetheart of the
motion picture public, and Gary
Cooper and Carole Lombard give
dramatic performances that should
increase their fans by the thou
sands.

didates to consider for the guber-
material post.

Governor Frank F. Merriam,
who became head of the state gov

Roph, Jr.. died, is considered the
favorite. Chasing him closely are
John Quinn, one time national
commander of the American Le-
gion and Los Angeles supervisor,
and former Governor c. c. Young.
Raymond Haight, young Los Ange-
les attorney, is the fourth principal
candidate.
Haight also is a candidate of the
Commonwealth party-the only one
on that ticket He and his advisers
created the party and enrolled
about $500 voters. OF all the 1000
candidates for office in California
tomorrow, Haight and U. S. Sena-

certain to be nominated.

the Republican, Democratic, Com
monwealth and Progressive parties
He has the support Of the Repub-

administration, and the strength OF
his progressive followers behinc
him. His nomination on all foul
tickets is assured.

INDIAN RAIN
GOD ANSWERS

ORAIBI, Ariz., Aug. 27. W.P)-
The rain god Ia Wa tossed bolts of
lightning through the air and rum
bled merrily today as thousands. of
Hopi Indians returned to their des-
ert homes, satisfied that their ma
gic-waving priests had turned the
trick again through the weird
snake dance.
Storms broke locally over the
desert, ending drought which had
blighted the region dSring the sum-
mer, and in places doing consider
able damage through floods.
Ceremonies in various parts Of
the Hopi reservation have sought
rain for weeks, but little was
Forthcoming until yesterdays rit-
ual. -.
A crowd of more than 5000 In
dians and whites gathered around
the squared patio as the snakes
were sprinkled with holy meal. Ho-
pis wore them upon their arms,
around their bodies, and carried
them in their bare hands.
Hours later rain storms covered
a greater portion of the state. Flood
waters in the Gila river in the SAT-
ford-Duncan area brought damage
estimated at $4,000. Eastbound
trains and tourist traffic were de-
layed for hours as tracks and roads
were flooded. p
Water stood foot deep in many
Stafford homes Cattle were drown
ed and adobe houses swept away.
Stafford residents, concluded that
the rain god Ia Wa was being a
little too indulgent in extending his
baptisms beyond the Hopi domain.

A vigilance committee" of non-

notice on striking onion weeders

severely and threw him out Of a

u. S. SUPREME COURT HOLDS
STATE HAS POWER TO TAX AN
INDUSTRY OUT OF EXISTENCE
Decision Believed to Show Possible Attitude Toward
Processing Taxes Imposed Under the Recovery
Program; Interstate Commission Rate
Making Powers Not Curtailed
Bv John A. REICHMANN

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, April 8. (UP)
The power Of a state to tax in
dustries out of existence received
the endorsement of the supreme
court yesterday when it upheld
the validity of Washington
state tax of Is cents per pound
on oleomargarine.
The opinion was written by
Justice George Sutherland, con-
sentative leader of the bench and
was concurred in by all the rest
of the court. In effect, the opin-
ion ruled that courts have no
power to question the validity of
a tax so long as. its wording
makes it essentially taxing
statute.
The decision was considered i'm
portant because of it's possible
indication of the courts attitude
toward processing taxes imposed
under the recovery program on
one farm product to prevent I'M
fair competition with another.
The case was brought by A.
Magnano and company, which
charged that it's $4,000 annual
business was taxed out of exist
ence, not for the purpose of rails
ing revenue for the state, but to
protect the states dairy farmers

GREECE LETS UP IN ITS
PRESSURE ON TURKEY

ATHENS, April 3.-(UP).-
General Director Parpas of the
foreign ministry last night said
that insasmuch as 1--WE do not
care to spoil our relations with
Turkey over M. insult" Greece
will abstain from further action
in the case.
He added, however, that if in
the future it becomes necessary,
Greece will take the same attitude
toward Turkish ships in Greek
waters. He pointed out that the
seizure Of Samuel insult off a
Grek freighter at Istanbul was a
matter of Interpretation of inter-
national law.
Pappas said Greece always fol-
lows the French Interpretation
while Angora apparently followed
the British, which is exactly OPP
