DR.. Monica is married to Warren
William and, in her frigid way, is
mad about him. Nevertheless hubby
finds time to play around with a
feather Drained youngSter played
by Jean Muir. What is supposed to
be the big scene is the discovery by
DR.. Monica that her own husband
is the father of jeans baby. After
a lot of tears and anguish and tons
of sloppy Sentimentalism, Jean gets
into her airplane after sending her
baby to DR.. Monica for keeps. Jean
heads the airplane toward Europe
with the knowledge that when the
gas supply gives out she will drop
into the ocean.
The final scenes Of this weak story
are devoted to DR.. Monica permit
ting her husband to bask in the
smiles of the baby, never dreaming
that he was its papa. Oh, hum.
Miss Francis is artificial most of
the time and Mr.. William gives the
impression that he is playing sap
role. The best work is done on the
part of Miss Muir and Verree Teas

This movie, as you might have
gathered, is NOT for children.

Bankhead Act
Poll Is Stated
F%Jec. 18th
Pre- Indications Are
Lay Will Continue For
Another Year
E BALLOTS

Washington.-Eigh days hence
one of the most unusual proceedings
in agricultural history will take
place throughout a farming belt ex-
tending from the Potomac to the
Rio Grande and westward to south
ern California.
Across the fields from which
they just picked the last bolls of the
nations chief export crop, as esti-
mated 100000 cotton planters will
troop to about 5000 polling places
open December IA from 9 a. m. te
$ p. m. to vote on whether the gov
eminent shall continue to tax over
production.
Federal agents will hand each :
ballot bearing this question:
"Are you in favor of continuing
the Bankhead act for next year
June l, 1885 to May 81, 1862
Below it are blank squares label
led Eyes" and mo" The voter will,
mark his. choice.
Present indications are that there
will be so many more KS in the
yes" square than in the ''no" that
President Roosevelt will proclaim
the Bankhead plan effective for
another year. In that case, cotton
produced in excess of AAA allot-
ments will be taxed again at the
rate of about Sc cents a pound.
A similar poll will be conducted
among tobacco farmers as soon as
the Bankhead vote is counted and
announced. They are asked to de-
eide whether the Kerr-Smith act,
in many respects comparable to the
law, shall be continued
throughout 1885. Like the cotton
men, they probably will give the
necessary majority for continuance.
For the first time in their lives
many southern negroes will exer-
Else their franchise. The AAA pro-
mise to see to it that racial and class
prejudice do not keep tenant farm
RS and share troopers from express
ng their feelings. In this alone, if
nothing else, the balloting will

The Memphis Commercial APP
zeal recently completed a straw poll
# cotton farmers which indicated
support of the Bankhead act at the
December IA referendum, although
plan was defeated in the test
vote. An overwhelming majority
# producers, the poll indicated,
:avored compulsory control. Many
observers concluded that the adj
verse vote on the Bankhead act re-
:lected a reaction against admins

Representative Walter Lambeth of

The eighth district congressman
conferred at length with Chairmal!

II stressed the fact that these ap-

part in distress and who, owing to
their situation had been unable to
comply with all of the provisions
required to get loans on the way
and before the legal division at
this time" said Mr.. Lambeth. 'I
found Chairman Fahey very sympa-
and he is of the opinion that
some plan will be worked out to
care for these distressed home own
ers. ~
II found that it would require
two billion dollars to lend what is
by home owners whose appli-
cations are suspended, and that the
has on hand only $780,
o0o,o 00 which will be required to
care for applicants whose papers are
before the legal divisions. He
congress might make an
appropriation to care for especially
cases."

A plan to broaden the treasury

A suggestion for repeal of the

transactions by foreign interests
frightened away by the capital

A Building Clash
Ickes and Moffett
Up To President
Uncle Sans Loans
On Foreign Debts

The big clash in the inside of the
Administration right nov is be-
tween Harold Ickes and Jim Mof-
felt. Ickes, besides being Secretary
of the Interior and administrator
of the oil code is, as everybody
knows, head of the Public Works
Administration. Jim Moffett is
former Standard Oil vice-president
who is head of the Federal Hous-
ing Administration. And the clash
is over fundamental policies of pro-
noting new home building.
Moffett's job is to try to get pri-
vate capital into this field. He has
made better progress thus far than
anyone expected him to. But just
as he got things going along where
lending institutions were about pre-
pared to put out several billions at
5 percent to finance new home
building, Ickes came out with a
broadcast declaration h at h G
thought the Government ought to
do this financing with public funds
at 3 percent.
That threw a scare into the lend
ing institutions. Wouldn't they
look foolish offering money at 5
percent when the Government was
offering it on better terms-1ckes
even suggested mo down pay
ment"-and at ; percent?
