FILM AT THE COLUMBIA
HAS SPEED AND FINE CAST
"Silk Express" Presented Here
With a Cast of Popular
Hollywood Players.

THERE is certainly speed in the action
OF Silk Express" current at the
Columbia, If travelling at the rate of
60 miles per hour through the hills and
dales means anything. There are also
frequent stoppings with q screeching OF
locomotive brakes, for it is more than
apparent that a company of stock
market "Shysters" intent on cornering
the market on silk, are much perturbed
by buyers importing their own silk by
special train from Seattle. 1t is to
get this silk express train through that
two people lose their lives. After the
train gets to New York that is oil OF
the film. One of the murders has been
cleared. the other Just left to the
imagination. The sick man is either
cured or dies for he is carted away
in an ambulance to the Rockefeller
Institute. The heroine is left with a
TIA ia, I'll see you again sometime.
from Neil Hamilton, youngish silk
buyer whose fortune. and that of his
colleagues, was at stake on the ship
ment of silk.
Still, there Is an element Of interest
in this -Hollywoodian film. surround
ing the two killings which are not
particularly CORY though ingenious in
their method. Even Railroad Detective
McDuff Guy Kibbee), who at last had
e. murder to work on with his knowl-
edge cleaned from reading detective
tales, was at a loss to explain how a
man could get into a sealed baggage
car, and the tears in the eye of the
second victim.
With such an excellent cast it would
seem that more could be made of this
scenario. for there is Guy Kibbee,
Dudley pigges, Arthur Hohl. who
usually plays the butler in murder
plays and does it unusually well, in
fact, he is Hollywood's most unusual
butler, and Sheila Terry. blond beauty.
who is the only woman In the cast and
supposedly the heroine.
On the supplementary program there
is q Magic Carpet release, "Byways Of

comedy, Twin Screws" and the usual

BAXTER PUTS
ART in PLAY
At THE FOX
Varied Stage Shoe
Give,. With Many
Features.

THEATERGOERS who take pleasure
in the kind Of entertainment that
appeals to strong and genuine senti-
ment, and In the splendid things that
good actors can do, when they have the
opportunities. will praise the film that
ts offered this week at the Fox Theater.
Rachel Crothers, keen-minded play
wright, whose pen always produces
something that is bound to attract at
tention. has been transported to the
screen in the production that is offered
under the title las Husbands Co." and
view of the play leaves an audience
with the impression that it has been
looking upon creative work that Is
worthy of the name
AS Husbands Go" Is done with as
natural an atmosphere and as gratify-
ing contact as successful play upon
the stage, and the direction by Hamil-
ton MacF'adden should add to the pub
lic appreciation of his work. Not the
least OF the matters to his credit is the
building of a personality behind which
stands the acting capacity of Warner
Baxter. This leading member of the
cast starts out with personal character
istics that are identical with those Of q
wholesome man of affairs. with the
charm Of refinement and human SYM
pathy. combined with magnetic i'm
preston in action. So far as the
psychological effect of the drama is
concerned. it Is carried along by the
implied agony Of great mind which
knowingly extends hospitality to the
lover of his wife, and in the process
wins both of them so that his own
home is preserved
In the incidental roles, Helen Vinson,
as the mistaken wife, carries out her
part with spirit Of deception which
is obviously lacking In harmony with
her own personality, and for that rea-
son is genuine art, while Warner GLAND,
Catherine Doucet and Eleanor Lynn
are effective figures In the plot.
The stage performance at the Fox is
headed by Poet Prince. whose rich voice
wins his audience. while Carl Fried,
humorous orchestra leader, with his
musicians, furnishes genuine entertain
ment, introducing a human composite
horse. which is very skillfully manip-
ulated. AL Nord and Jeanne are worth
while, with remarkable dancing by the
child, and an excellent dance act is
given by Virginia Lee and Tommy Raj
ferty, with Adeline Bendon. Tommy
and Billy Joyce Phil Lampkin and
his orchestra renew acquaintance with
the genius Of Friml Altogether 1t is a
show to please discriminating audi
ences. D. G. G.

COMIC FILM
HAS STRONG
ACTING CAST
Well Kno,On Figures
Haze NeaU Roles
at Keith's.

ONE Of those plays IN which the
characters are natural comedians
and engage In odd financial transac-
tions which are strung together into
q story. with its own type Of suspense,
Is offered at R-K-O Keith's. with pros
poets of tightening many q dull period
IN the days routine. Zazu Pitts and
Pert kelton, respectively, stage in
Stitutfon and an efferveScent bit Of
hilarious Showmanship, are provided
with their special kinds of action, one
with the Joy Of depression and the
other with the spirit of the go-getter.
Equally appropriate to the nature Of
the play Is the contribution of FL Bren-
del, plodding barber shop owner, ana
James Gleason. all-around adventurer,
while Skeets Gallagher and Edward
McWade are indispensable contributors
to the action,
The story centers around the diff
culties of Miss Pitts, whose shop has
passed into the hands of a big mer-
camille organization, which ruthlessly
brushes her aside through a hidden
clause in the contract. and the efforts
Of Ell Brendel to make his establish
ment more than a one-man affair, in
order that he may have sufficient back
ground to enter into matrimony with
Miss Pitts.
Odd incidents and a mixture of busi-
ness with humorous acts of violence
make up the furious pace Of the pro-
duction, with the climax involving the
prospect of marriage and a happy
future. Each of the actors in the cast
has been known to the screen for out
standing individuality, and the combi-
nation presents full quota Of merry
developments
The Keith program also introduces
Amos n Andy in cartoon. which is
arranged with emphasis on the known
characteristics of the two public char
acters and their associates. The result
is an opportunity to enjoy the philoso-
ply of the pair, while at the same time
observing them in action through the
use of the composite Photographic
figures which are to be expected in a
fanciful cartoon.
Ruth Etting is assisted by Louis Al
berni in a more pretentious film than
she has been in the habit of offering.
and the introduction of a plot which
centers around the comic adventures
Of Mr.. Alberni. 1t serves the purpose
of giving full scope to the singing pow
ers of Miss Etting and permitting them
to be embellished with the antics Of
Mr.. Alberni Their act is called Cali
fornia Weather" and its inspiration
comes from the thought, already intro
duced into the films, of the pursuit of
the person who has a voice. The sing
ing is heard over the radio, and the
pursuer crosses the continent to Holly
wood. where his simple ways shock the
natives, and his task is made very hard.

there can be fair comparison between the public indebtedness of the United States and Great Britain unless the debts of the political subdivisions of the two countries are taken into account as well.
 Available statistics along this line show the total gross debt of the States and municipalities in 1882 amounted to approximately $19.285 100000 This would make the total indebtedness of the United States and it's political subdivisions about s50000,- GOO 0o0 or per capita of approximately s40o.
 As against this, the total debt of local bodies in Great Britain estimated at 1,500o0000O pounds sterling or about $7775OOoOOO at current exchange rates This would make the total debt of Great Britain in excess of s4700o 0O0000 To complete the comparison, however, the population of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is approxi- mately 46000000 compared to 122000000 in the United States while the national income and na- tional wealth of this country far greater than that of Great Britain, which makes the balance decidedly in favor of the United States Taking the national income and national wealth into consid- eration the debt burden of this country is much lighter than the debts of the other great powers.
