A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
memorializing the President of
the United States and Harry L.
Hopkins, the Administrators of the
Works Progress Administration
that it is the wish and desire of
the people of the state of Mime
sofa that farmers be reinstated as
being Of a class eligible for en-
ployment under the Works Pro-
gress Administration.
Whereas, many of the farmers of
the State of Minnesota have lost
and are losing their lands and
chattels because of the severe eco
nomic conditions which have pre-
vailed in said state and in the
United States as a whole during
the past six years, and
Whereas, these said farmers are
in need of work assistance which
assistance they have heretofore been
receiving under the Works Progress
Administration, and
Whereas, by recent order Of Harry
L. Hopkins, Administrator of the
Works Progress Administration,
some twelve thousand $4,000
farmers of the State of Minnesota
have been stricken from the pay
rolls Of said Works Progress Ad-
ministration, and
Whereas, this said action has
deprived these twelve thousand
Q2,000) farmers of their means Of
livelihood, and
Whereas, there is no valid reason
for discrimination against the
farmers as class
Now, therefore, be it resolved, by
the House of Representatives Of
the State Of Minnesota, the Senate
concurring, that the President of
the United States and Harry L..
Hopkins, Administrator of the
Works Progress Administration of
the United States be and they
hereby are most urgently and re-
spectfully petitioned to revoke the
order Of the said Administrator
striking farmers as class from
the pay rolls of the said Works
Progress Administration and to re-
instate said class as being eligible
for employment under the Works
Progress Administration.
Be it further resolved, that duly

Adventure
In New Film
At the MET
Suspense Well Done
in King Solomon's
Mines"

IF IT'S exciting adventure you
want, you'll find 1t in King Solo
i mons Mines" the new Gaumont-
British picture at the Metropoli-
tan. Unashamed in its use of melo-
drama, King Solomon's Mines" none
the less is highly entertaining film,
its only drawback being that it pro-
crosses at half speed sometimes instead
of with the throttle wide open.
But it makes up for being slow in
spots with goodly portion of thrills
and suspense as it tells its red -blooded
tale Of an Irish lass who sets off across
deserts and through wild country in
habited by wilder tribes, to find her
father, who has gone in search of the
tabled mines With her goes chap
named Umbopa, later famed white
hunter and two boys from England for
a bit Of sport. and with them all goes
considerable excitement.
Robert Stevenson, who directed the
film, like another skilled British di-
rector. Alfred Hitchcock. knows how
to build suspense and get you up on
the edge Of the seat with something
that in other hands would be un-
adulterated trickery. Your throat will
begin to feel dry when the water runs
n ho{
you will be in their fighting in the
battle to restore Umbopa to the throne
that is rightfully his. tThese Sc
quences, incidentally, introduce a
pleasant little parlor sport-a form of
dueling wherein the duelists are
equipped with shields and axes that
big)
There's some fine suspense in the
latter scenes, too when the whole
party is trapped inside the mine with
volcano crater tapping at their toes.
In addition to Stevensons direction,
King Solomon's Mines" has, to make
it more believable, a fine performance
by Cedric Hardwicke, who does so we'll
as the bitter white hunter that you
finally begin to believe maybe he is
right after all and every one about
the place is going to die
Anna Lee is the heroine of the film
and a very fine heroine she makes for
any film. She is even beautiful when
she has on long pants and an old
shirt and her nose is shiny. Roland
Young is about, too, to contribute
some bright comedy relief. and Paul
Robson plays Umbopa. He has sew
eral opportunities to sing and. while
We are not complaining about his
voice. which truly is an excellent one,
there's no particular place in this
cinema adventure for songs and they
help slow its pace. H. M.

MELODY OF '38' REMAINS

Eleanor Powell, Robert Taylor,

A S A direct descendant of Broad
way Melody of 1885," the 1898
model Melody" now in its second
week at the Palace. owes more than
a name to its predecessor Every
thing from music to settings have been
borrowed out of the old production,
not to mention Eleanor Powell, Rob-
ert Taylor, Buddy Ebsen and some
others who were featured in the
original.
Newcomers and smash hits among
the present cast are Judy Garland,
very young lass who will be with
us forever if audiences have anything
to say about it, and Sophie Tucker,
an old-timer who still walks right
down the aisle with every scene she
encounters.
Melody" also presents George Muir
ply who is not much of a PERSONAL
ity but as a dancer can shade all but
the very best of them today; Robert
Benchley, in role that for once
keeps the funny man fairly dull:
Willie Howard, and a citizen who
specializes in the fine art of the sneeze.
Story is something about race
horses. Broadway shows, a tap dancer
and all that. BY tap dancer and
all that we mean Miss Powell. who is
at her best, working beautifully with
her first dancing partner Mr.. Taylor

And out went Lilly, looking as
though she'd been put through a
wringer. And Lilly is only one in a
thousand who have been put through

The motion picture industry hasn't
time, as Mr. Producer stated, to waste
on temperament any more. Business
is business in Hollywood. Stars shoot
up and stars shoot down, but the pa
rade marches steadily along-and do
ing job here is no different from
doing job in bank, brokers' of1ice

public knows little, and of which Mr..

this week, the Capitol offers Man
Mountain Johnny Perkins as master
OF ceremonies and monologist, with
Sheila Barrett the headliner among
the performers he introduces. Per-
kins' style of working has made him
great favorite here although I still
think he could get along nicely with
out attempting to sing.
AS for the clever Miss Barrett, she
is in excellent form in every phase of
her mimicry. Recommended above all
other diversions on this bill is her
Southern Belle in the Big CITY," and
the Barrett version of Gone With the

able support from Jane Bryan, who

prano, full of life and color and Miss
Gansworth uses it effectively IN a
program that has something worth
while for all who like a song well

popular or classical or in between.
The rest of the bill is devoted to
some clever comedy and good dancing
by Ross Wyse, jr, and June Mann,
whose turn is enjoyable even if the
routine hasn't changed a bit; to quiet
tap dancing by the Six Debonairs, with
interludes of toe, control. acrobatic
and semi-ballet dances by Emily Won
Loosen. who is good. too; to the Four
Vespers, and to Audrey Sieber, who
must be almost ashamed sometimes
