Demonstratio ton Will Be Second of Series Given
 Tn Vocational Work

The Vocational Department of the Territorial schools announces the second of series of cooking dem onstrations sponsored by the Home Economies Section. This is to be given on Tuesday, October 29, at the Northern Light Presbyterian Church parlors and will begin at 1:30 pm. The demonstration is to be given by Mrs. o. N. Crone.

 The first demonstration given by Mrs Crone on September 26 hap pened to fall on very stormy day, but nevertheless 50 women attended, and the interest justifies the con- tinuance of this work. It is the plan to give at least one homemaking demonstration per month as long as there is sufficient interest, and A. E. Schoettler, Vocational Supervisor, states that he will welcome sugges- tions for topics of interest to house. wives of Juneau.

"COLD DICCERS OF 1935'' WILL
 BE AT CAPITOL
Musical Com edy Stars Glenda Farrell and
 Hugh Herbert

gseGold Diggers of 1885, picture that has been two years in the making, opens Sunday at the Capitol Theatre. First National always famed for magnificent musical spectacles, has outdcne itself in this picture, which marks the advent of Bushby Ber- kelley as the director of complete production.
 Berkeley, it is claimed, has taken a funny, clever story, gathered to- gsther a cast of film favorites that includes men of Warnsr Bros standing stars, and, with the as sistance of more than 300 of the r-ct,iest dancing girls in Hollywood, has assembled the whole into tune full comedy in which his talent for spectacular screen innovations has been given full sway.
 He was the musical comedy genius responsible for "42nd Street" Won der Bar Gold Diggers of 1893, " eFootlight Parade" and other musi- calls.
 The outstanding specialties in the new show are a dance in which 90 snow white grand pianos actually cavort on the stage, and dance in which the dance team of Ramon and Rosita is also featured.
  In the cast are Dick Powell, Adolphe Menjou, Gloria Stewart, Alice Brady, Glenda Farrell, Frank McHugh, Hugh Herbert, Joseph Cawthorn, Grant Mitchell, Dorothy Dare and Winffred Shaw.
 Glenda Farrell does little gold digging at the expense of Hugh Her bert, but it all ends happily in one Of the most amusing climaxes ever filmed.
 There are three remarkable song numbers written by Harry Warren and Al Dublin.
 Tonight, Star of Midnight mys- tcry drama starring William Powell and Ginger Rogers, is shown for the last times.

The measure will be put into it's final draft at the next meet ing of the Council.
 In connection with the building code ordinance, it was suggested that the City establish zone in the bus mess district to be limited to con- crete or other fireproof construction in the future, but no action was ta- ken.
 After consideration of a proposal made by Art Miller representing Ross Swift and Howard Mills of station KINY, Swift was appointed temporary Radio Inspector without remuneration for a period of 30 days. The Council agreed to furnish the small city truck for two hours each evening as transportation for Swift, and also agreed that financial ad- iustment will be made if, after the 30 day period, Swift has accomplish ed satisfactory benefits with regard to the elimination of unnecessary ra- dio noises and interference under the existing radio ordinance.

TARIFF PROTEST
. SEEN AID TOA.A.A.
Roosevelt Cites Farmers
Threat to Start Coun-
ter Suits.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Threats Of some farm representa-
tives to start suits testing the validity
of the tariff are interpreted by Presi-
dent Roosevelt as a sign that the
rural areas are behind the farm
adjustment program.
Spokesman for group OF Texas
farmers recently said action would be
brought to test the constitutionality
Of tariff laws II court attacks sue
coed in knocking out the A. A. A.
processing taxes.
The President contended at yes
terday's press conference that these
threats against the tariff indicated
the farmers approved the Govern
ments program. He said the natural
worry OF the farmers over the pos
sibility that the A. A. A. would be
invalidated by the courts was reflected
by their attitude.
Farm Prosperity Seen.
Mr.. Roosevelt said the farmers are
paying more obligations and saving
more money than at any time since
1929. adding that they had had eight
poor years prior 10 1929.
The Texans. In voicing their threat.
contended the protective tariff benefits
only one class and places q burden
on the farmer. This was an answer
TO the A. A. A. opponents argument
that the processing levy Is class legis-
lation.
Meanwhile. Senator johnson, Re-
publican. Of California was up in arms
over talk OF 'compromise" on a GER
tain part OF the A. A. A. amendments
In a Senate House conference.
As the amendments passed the
House, all professors were barred from
suing the Government TO recover proc
essing taxes. The Senate changed
that TO permit professors to sue II
they showed they had not passed the
taxes on to the consumer.
Bills In Conference.
Now the conflicting bills are In con-
ference to iron out this and other
differences. Amid conflicting reports
that the conferees had and had not
reached certain agreements, there was
one report OF q proposal to permit
professors to submit claims for tax
rebates TO the commissioner OF in
ternal revenue In case the Supreme
Court invalidated the processing taxes.
These taxes are levied on manufacture
ers and others to get money to pay
farmers benefits.
Under the new proposal. the revenue
commissioner would be empowered to
say what If any, taxes should be re-
funded.
On hearing Of this, Senator johnson
threatened to carry the fight back
to the Senate floor"
Provisions forbidding levying of a
processing tax on newsprint or inter-
ference by the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration with advertising
probably will be included in the final
draft of the A. A. A. amendments.
Senator Murphy, Democrat, of Iowa
one Of the Senate conferees, said the
House conferees had offered no OBJ
jections to the amendments and that
the conferees had tentatively agreed
to include them in the conference re-
port.
