win be introduced in the Senate
within q few days, Senator Van
Nuys CD Of Indiana said today.
Senator Van Mugs prophesied
his amendments would meet with
strong objection In the Senate
from some quarters. but added he
believed they would have the SUP
port of a bloc large enough to keep
the question before both branches
of Congress. He said:
'"The LEGISLATION, which I have
I'm mind, win deal only with
chains operating stores In more
than one State or section Of the
country, commonly known -
national chains.
"The most casual inveStigar
ton must lead to the conclusion
that national chain store mer-
chandIsing is developing to tina
Point where it threstens to mo
nOpOIize our retail trade and
ultimately destroy the indepen-
dent wholesaler and retailer"

OIL EMBARGO
PROSPECTS
INCREASE

LONDON, Jan. 3 0.NS9-Ap-
plication Of an oil embargo by the
League Of Nations against Italy to-
day was considered much more
likely than 1t was o month ago,
when the HoaTe-Lsval proposals
seemed to have sidetracked the
possibility of such strong sane
tionS.
Two factors are pointing politi-
cal observers to this conclusion:
One, the way IN which public
opinion in all countries has been
aroused by the Italian bombing Of
e Swedish ambulance unit.
Second, the belief that the
United States Congress is shout
to adopt strong neutrality meas
ures.
Also, there il the stronger mill
tary position Of the league, In
creased by the assurance Of
Turkey, Greece, Rumania. Yugo
slavia, and Czech0Slovakia that
they win support Britain and the
League in the event Of an Italian
3CG2Ck.
Moreover, the danger Of an Eu-
ropean war has been greatly les
ened by the change in the Italian
attitude toward an oil embargo.
Whereas, a month ago, Italy re-
peated that ii would be regarded
as an act Of hostility, today it is
said it would be considered an act
Of grave unfriendIineSS."
This change IN attitude IS prob
ably due to the fact that Italy
win have plenty Of OH to carry On
her African campaign, regardless
Of what action the League takes.

clusively revealed by international

surprised to get Q claim from the
Oklahoman who presumably was dead.
Quick inquiry disclosed that q SINH

died and the one now clamoring for
his bonds had led to the erroneous set
tlement. The inquiry also disclosed
that the live individual and his

ried and that so far as the former
was concerned the affair was on.
So that brought the case to this:
He wanted his money; she had it
and couldn't be located for q possible

wanted to know what was what.
Acting Controller General Elliott
Has his own ideas about such things,

He pointed out that the veteran
had designated the woman as his ben

in 'common-law relationship. which

Three Women" Will Be \
Shown April 23rd At
The Milo Theatre

Special arrangements have been
made for release of the new techni-
color motion picture, 'Three Women"
for the Milo Theatre, to be shown on
April 23rd, at 80 P. M. The feature,
lasting about 45 minutes, includes
such well known stars as Johnny
Mack Brown, Sheila Manners, Hedda
Hopper, and Inez Courtney. Produced
in color and spiced with humor, it has
an interesting, romantic charm that
adds a new portrayal of domestic
scenes in the average family.
The theme deals with an indulgent
father, VIM. Collier, ST., who becomes
tired of the many odd characters pick
led up and invited to dinner by his
young and vivacious daughter, Sheila
Manners. To punish her he invites an
old friend, Johnny Mack Brown, a
prominent young doctor, to dress up
as an old crank and come to dinner
on the "maid's day off," Roitous hum
or develops in the dinner scenes with
the "crank" living up to fathers ex-
pectations. Romance lends a helping
hand when the young doctor is dis
covered by daughter with his wig off.
The picture, produced in Hollywood,
was directed by the famous Monte
Brice, who produced such hits as
"Take a Chance" Moonlight and
Pretzels," and many others. Paul
Schofeld, outstanding screen writer of
the coast who wrote the screen YER
sion of "Beau Geste," did the scenario
adaptation for "Three Women"
Added attractions will consist of a
brief cooking demonstration, "Mick-
ey Mouse" Short, and the awarding of
number of valuable door prizes.
Free tickets will be available at the
showrooms of the local General Elec-
trio dealer, Brosius Bros. & Gormley,
Inc, who are sponsors for the showing
of this spectacular film in your COM
munity.

PENSIONERS OF 1000 A. D.

This only 1886, but history repeats itself there will
be veterans of the World War still alive and drawing pen
sons in the year 1000.
Daniel F. Bakerman last survivor of the Revolutionary
War; lived until April 2, 1869, sc years after the war
ended Hiram Cronk drew pension as veteran of the
War of 1912 until his death May 49, 1906 at the age
of 1O5 years. Five soldiers of the Mexican War were still
on the pension rolls 80 years after the close of that war;
In this connection it is interesting to note that two
mothers of Civil War veterans still drawing pensions
up four five ago. They were Samantha But
ton of West McHenry ILL.,, and Samantha Farrer negro
woman of Athens, Ala.
Although the Civil War ended in 1866 it is quite prob
able that veteran or two who followed Grant may be
alive and drawing pension in 1850. Considering the
vastly greater number of those who fought with Pershng
in France it is not unreasonable suppose that some
Of them will still be in the land of the living in the year
NOO youngster of IT, who enlisted in 1917 would be
100 years old then And with the greater span of life
which modern science is making possible there will doubt
less be many to attain that age.
