Gene Raymond Is Hero of
Love on a Bet in
Second Picture.
BY JOHN w. THOPSON

Not since she crooned to Gary
Cooper in Morocco" several years
ago, has Marlcne Dietrich been so
entertaining as in Desire" opening
today at the Indiana.
The second feature is a gay frolic
called Love on a Bet" in which
Gene Raymond ends up in Los An
geles with Wendy Barrie. Helen
Broderick, thrown in for good meas
ure, runs the pot over with wise
cracks.
There still is plenty Of glamour
left in La Dietrich as she parades in.
a startling costume in each scene,
and in addition does some clever
acting.
Most fans agree that Miss Diet
rich's trouble SO far has been in
direction. Won Sternberg, who saw
the blond actress as a living poem,
seemed to think all he had to do was
present her in series of portraits.
Frank Borzage, who directed this
picture, Che also made Seventh
Heaven and Farewell to Arms') j,
has different ideas. Under his or
ders, Miss Dietrich energies as an
excellent heroine with none of her
beauty lost
AS Madeleine Gle Beaupre, of a
band of jewel thieves, she makes
way with a necklace in Paris and
streaks for Spain in her roadster.
Also driving toward the border is a
Peoria Qll) boy, Tom Bradley
When he stops at the roadside Miss
Dietrich's car Splashes mud over
him.
Finds Girl in Trouble
A few miles further, he finds the
girl with auto trouble, and he makes
the repair. At the customs office
she gets cold feet and drops the
necklace in Toms pocket. He gets
through and few miles farther
finds her at the side of the road,
with the engine wrecked.
He takes her in his car, but to her
dismay ne is coatless. She tells him
he should put on his coat, and as
he gets out to do so she drives away.
She doesn't know, however, that the
suitcase containing the coat fell out
when she drove off.
They meet again and romance
blossoms at a country place, where
Prince" Margoli, Madeleine's con-
federate, takes them. There Margoli
gets the necklace, and Gary and
Marlene are happy.
Another confederate, aunt" Olga,
explains to Madeline that marriage
is impossible, and she confesses to
Tom. Through some clever rough
work he RECEIVERS the necklace, eS-
capes with Madeleine and they re-
turn the jewel.
It's amusing, drags in spots, and
gives both Mr.. Cooper and Miss
Dietrich something to brag about.
Not for a long time have they been
SO human, thanks to Mr.. Borzage.
Other Picture Clever
Love on a Bet" has a steady
run of clever dialog. Mr.. Ray
mond is cast as wild young New
Yorker who wants to be a play
producer, while his wealthy uncle
wants him to go into the packing
business. One of the plays he
wants to produce contains a plot
which. his uncle says could never
happen.
To prove it, Mr.. Raymond agrees
to duplicate the hero's actions. He
starts from New York with only a
pair of shorts, hitch-hikes to Cali
fornia, and ends up with $780, a
new suit and is engaged to a beNu-
tiful girl.
With Miss Broderick's dead-pan
comedy and Miss Barrie's loneliness
for support, his trip is much bet
ter than travelogue.

to. Zenith and her new grand
daughter.
The way in which Dodsworth
solves the problem brings the play
to an exciting and satisfactory con-
clusion. In the final showdown, it
has been discovered that women in
the audience always are with him
and against Fran.
Some of the dialogue is taken
verbatim from the book, but most
Of it is Sidney Towards. Mr.
Lewis, however, says it does no
violence to his characters, and that
in many cases it reveals the1r more
clearly. The public seems to be
satisfied with the result, for the
play had a run of 353 performances
in New York, and three months in
Chicago.

Mein host, Tom Bennett, who

assertion that the number of

power, what justification Is there for
the order, constitutional or uncon-
stitutional? The 1900 farmers on the
Washington market do not benefit
by this order. They remain in status
quo"
Darr's case is one Of two before the
court for the same purpose. The other
is brought in behalf of model farm
dairy producer by Attorneys Frederick
Stohlman and George I. Cassidy.
The agreement. the Government
contends. merely fixes minimum prices
which must be paid by distributors to
producers. Darr insisted 1t jeopardizes
contracts now existing between his
clients and the Highland Farms Dairy.
Highland Farms, he said, buys at q
fiat price all the milk produced by
their farmers within certain quotas.
Darr said his clients will lose on these
points through the operation OF the
agreement:
/. They will not receive as much
per gallon Of milk as they do now.
2. They will be docked more than
they are now for milk containing
less than 40 per cent butterfat.
3. They will receive a price fob.
the dairy under the agreement con-
trasted with fob. the farm under
existing contract.
4. Because the price is set at the
end Of each fortnight by the agree
ment administrator, the farmer can
not tell from day to day how much
he is going to get for his milk.
Justice Luhring questioned Darr'S
statement that the control is beyond
Congress power to legislate for the
District.
rs 1t not all right" the jurist
asked, "for Congress to regulate the
amount Of milk the distributors can
sell?"
No" Darr said, mot when it means
abrogation Of existing contracts. 1t
constitutes q violation Of the due
process and equal protection amend
ments of the Constitution"
Darr also held that Congress had
no right to the control under the
interstate commerce clause. He cited
the Supreme Courts view in the Guf-
fey coal case that even a commodity
produced for later shipment in inter-
state commerce cannot be regulated
as such until 1t Is actually in inter-
state commerce.
