SNAPPED BY A QUEEN

BRUSSELS, Jan. Is. When a comes to photographs, Elizabeth, dowager queen of the Belgians, can take them as well as hand them out.
 With the late King Albert she has posed for thousands of photographs, both formal and for the press, and has graciously handed out to the public her likeness for years.
 Queen Snaps Royalty
 But at the same time the Queen has taken thousands of photographs of her own, intimate scenes of roy alty for the most part.
 She seldom has been without a camera on short trips near home or across the continent to distant lands.
 An interesting scene-the Queen stops-click-and another picture is added to the royal album.
 Most of these pictures never have been seen by anyone except mem- bers of the royal family or those especially close to the Queen. One of the first exceptions came in 1929 after the Queen returned from the Belgian Congo. Some 50 snapshots made by her were in- cluded in an album of souvenirs sold to obtain funds for various charit- able institutions in the Congo. 1 The second exception was last year during an exhibit in memory of the late Queen Astrid, plolic effort to raise money for charity.
 Queen Elizabeth contributed group of pictures she had taken of Queen Astrid and her children in Laeken Castle gardens, Stuyvenberg farm and of the seashore.
 Released for Charity
 Few photos have been released for publication, and then only of the royal children. In most instances there has been a charitable motive involved fl
 Since the death of King Albert, it was said in court circles, the dowager Queen has turned more and more to her photographs which in- clude scores of her husband
 Historians regard the Queens reproductions as precious documents to be guarded for posterity, since they include genuine touches Of the intimate side of the life of all mem- bers of the royal family for more than a half century.

DOUGLAS NE TVS
NEW CHILDREN'S HOME FOR
 DOUGLAS TO BE READY SOON

MT. and Mrs. Floyd Gilman, who arrived here recently from Portland to take charge of the local field for the Alaska Evangelization Society, new missionary organization ef- fected in the Territory last october are as rapidly as possible transform- ing the former Bach house into a comfortable home to be maintained for destitute or dependent Indian children. The home will be slightly different from similar institutions in this district in that it will take in full breed Indian children only.
 Besides six children now under charity care in Petersburg, who are awaiting transportation facilities to come here, several more are expect ed from other places as soon as the home is in complete readiness, As the needs develop, other homes of the same kind will be established in other parts of the Territory.
 The new society, which is strictly undenominational from the religious standpoint, will look after the spir- itual as well as the physical needs of the children. Sunday school will be held in the local branch which will be open to all the children in town who care to attend.

GLAMOUR QUEEN OF HISTORY IN CAPITOL ORA MA
Noted Feet Dance Through Entertaining Film
 at Coliseum

A queen whose destinieS was writ ten before she was born-and whose forordained tragedy established her as one of the most glamorous wo- men of all time-is portrayed at the Capitol Theatre, starting Sun day, by Katharine Hepburn in the title role of RKO Radios Mary Of Scotland" which co-Stars Fredric March, as the Earl of Bothwell.
 The treachery, the murders, the political manuevering to control her marriages, the whispered islander branding her an immoral murder ess that helped blast her from her throne, and all the dramatic incl dents traced in the film were made inevitable because two blood rela- tives were born with the taint of illegitimacy-Elizabeth of England, her cousin, and James Stuart, Earl of Moray, her half brother.
 The lovely Scotswoman was a constant threat to Elizabeth. She held a hereditary claim to the Eng fish crown, and many powers with in and without England were eager to give Mary her cousins throne. Hence she became the target for Elizabeths plotting, pawn in the cleyerest intrigue of the age. Be- cause the illegitimate Moray could never become king, but only satisfy his lust for power by becoming re- gent, Mary was met with murder, islander, and intrigue under her own roof, to the end that she might be driven out or subjected to his will.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. 16. -E. H. Adams, Burbank chief of police, stepped in and succeeded where film cowboys knew not what to do.
 Two motlun picture studio horses became mired in bog near Lake Toluca. Chief Adams was called to the scene. There were various sug- gestions, one of them that ropes he tied to the horses necks. Adams did quite the reverse.
 He tied the ropes around the'r tails. Bremen pulled. The horses were extricated.
 T learned down in the Rio Grande Valley years ago that any horse, if put to the test. can haul blow with it's tail" Adams explained.

He told the country in a radio
speech before assuming the robes of
office that he had resigned from
the Khan and that, as far as he was
concerned, the incident was closed.
He stopped somewhat, I think, when
he tried to dodge the issue by charg-
ing that those who had exposed his
Khan connections were trying to dis
credit Mr.. Roosevelt. But, Mr..
Black is now member of the court
and I do not see what anybody can
do in the way Of unseating him.
The reason for adverting again to
the Black-Klan affair is to make a
prediction. That prediction is: as
long as Mr.. Black sits as member
of the Supreme court of the United
States, he will receive repercussions
of the case. will wager now that
regardless of what position Mr..
Black takes in deciding any future
litigation, there will be those who
will point to him and remark that
'.he was once a member of the Ku
Klux Klan." Likewise, regardless of
the views or arguments he advances
in and decisions rendered by the
court, Mr.. Black will be referred to
continuously as ''the Khan member
or as 'the Roosevelt liberal"
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1937-10-21

had opposed the court packing; he
needed information about the de-
mand for an extra session Of con-
gress to enact crop control legisla-
ton and, in addition, he wanted to
see what the general feeling was
about the Sino-Japanese war.
The trip was timed admirably. It
took Mr.. Roosevelt away from
Washington, and further, away from
the red-hot cauldron resulting from
the fact that Associate Justice Hugo
L. Black of Alabama was a men,
Der Of the Ku Klux Khan.
The information that filters back
from observers aboard the Presi-
dents train presents something of a
paradox. Almost unanimously, the
observers found that Mr.. Roose-
welt was still immensely popular
personally. Concerning his various
programs, including crop control
legislation, the observers report that
they found conditions ranging from
violent opposition to plain apathy
or complete lack of interest.
It is a most confusing situation
from political standpoint. I have
found few individuals able or willing
to attempt an analysis of it. Cen
orally speaking, lack of enthusiasm
for program sooner or later will
kill off politically the individual who
sponsors the program. Yet, no one
will say, at this time at least that
such a result can be expected in Mr..
Roosevelt's case.
But the political effect of his Chi
cago speech must not be minimized.
Whether Mr.. Roosevelt so intended
or not his speech demanding that
Japan respect treaties and observe
the rights of other nations and his
pointed criticism of policies such as
those employed by Mussolini, Hit
Ter and Stain, have the effect of
rallying the people behind him.
Black Khan Affair
Some persons who are opposed to
the New Deal have been mean
enough to say that Mr. Roosevelt
took his trip West in order to get
away from Washington until the in
cident involving Associate Justice
Black had blown over. do not know
whether the exposure that Mr. JUS
tice Black had been a member of
the Ku Klux Khan alone prompted
Mr. Roosevelt to leave. repeat only
what is being said.
Mr.. Justice Black has now taken
his seat as q member of the court.

| recently concerning the possibility
that the United States may engage
/ in actual war in the Far East. I
think that eventuality is very far
removed.
Possibilities always exist for ma
ton to get tangled up international
~ under conditions such as obtain
throughout the world today, yet I
(. do not believe that the United
/ States ever will do more in the Far
East than exert moral pressure up
on the Japs. It must not be over
looked, however, that the bulk Of
American sympathy is with the Chi
nese. One cannot tell how far that
may lead us as a nation. Nor is it
possible to forecast the weight Of
this sympathy in an economic way.
I mean by that, no one can fore
tell what such a thing as boycott
of japanese goods may mean even
tually.
From all of this it must be plain
that our national course in the next
few months will have to be deter
mined largely by the other fellow.
Or, to state the proposition in an
other way, the lengths to which the
United States will go in punitive ac-
ton against Japan is likely to be
determined, first, by the reaction of
our own citizens to japanese bar
barism, and second, the moves by
other dominant nations of the
world.
