Freeze Out
Reporter

There we're about twelve
chilly,looking members Of the
executive committee Of the In.
ternational Association of Ice
Cream Manufacturers gathered
around a long table at their
meeting today in the Mayflower
Hotel. They assumed a decidedly
frozen attitude when ap-
preached for news.
Several icy stares we're cast
in the reporters direction, as
Robert C. Hibben. secretary,
and the only Washington man
attending, came forward.
He declared he had twelve
persons on his hands and no
time to be questioned. His
frigid look melted into q smile
just before he turned away,
saying:
There isn't anything that
the Washington public would
be interested in. Just the bust
ness affairs Of q regular meet
ing and financial reports. And
who cares to know who's here?"

STRIKE HORROR
DEPICTED IN
'BLACKFURY'
BY Universal Service

BY UnlVeEBRl SeEVlCO
The bitterness of a coal
miners strike is realistically por.
trayed in "Black Fury" a War
ner Brothers production given its
preview here last night before a
gathering Of labor leaders and
Government officials.
Because of it's stark presenta-
ton of the brutality that fire.
quently accompanies strikes but
is seldom brought home to a far
away public, demands have arisen
for censorship of the picture.
Last nights audience, however,
gave it a rousing reception.
Miner Is Hero
The story revolves about q
husky and popular young "hunky"
miner, who, stupefied by the
faithlessness of his girl, becomes
the dupe of private detective
seeking to foment a strike so his
firm can supply strike breakers.
After bringing desolation upon
his fellow workers by inducing
them to strike, the miner, por-
trayed by Paul MUM, carries them
to victory by capturing the mine
single-handed and holding it with
dynamite until the owners agree
to terms. Munis performance is
another triumph for the versatile
young actor.
N0tabIeS Attend
Among those attending the
preview were John L. Lewis, pres
ident Of the United Mine Workers;
Sidney Hillman, president of the
Ladies Garment Workers Union
and member Of the National Re.
covery Board, and Assistant Sec
rotary Of Labor Edward F. Nc

TROUBLED WITH
CONSTIPATION FOR
PAST Is YEARS"
Then ALL-BRAN Brought
Welcome Relief

Read this voluntary letter from
Mr.. Lecour: 81 have been troubled
with constipation for the past rs
years. I tried practically every
cathartic without results.
Recently, I determined to give
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN a fair trial.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN has not only
helped me, but 1 believe it is an
actual relief for chronic constipa-
tion.*-Mr. Henry E. Lecour, 4
Vaughan Ave-, Worcester, Mass.
"Dus to insufficient "bslk" IN
meals.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN provides
''bulk" to aid elimination. It also
furnishes vitamin B and iron.
The ''bulk" in ALL-BRAN is gem
tie and safe for normal individ-
uals. Often more effective than
"'bulk" in fruits and vegetables, as it

Isn't this natural food pleasanter
than patent medicines? Just eat
