Reunion Finds Quints Developing Into Natural
 Stars-Finale Tonight

The Dionne Quints, again star at fractions in a movie, showing for the last time at the Capital Theatre tonight, have increased tremendous ly in their acting skill.
 In their Twentieth-Century-Fox feature, Reunion the starlets de- cided to follow the Will Rogers technique of acting and make up their performance as they went along.
 Upon the broad shoulders of Di- rector Norman Taurog fell the bur- den of taking advantage of the na- tural actions of the babies and adapting them into the story.
 Tt much better all around" Tau rog said. I'm sure I'd rather see the Quints being themselves than any other way Of course, some of their impromptu business was a little surprising to their fellow actors, but I'm certain the results obtained will greatly please theatre goers.
 "The difference between the Quints first picture, The Country Doctor and Reunion Taurog add ed, lis that in the first one the script was written for the Quints, while in their new picture, the ecript was written bV the OuintS themselves"

Dimond providing for the purchase of non-native owned reindeer in Alaska and distribution of the same among the natives, and a similar bill introduced by Senator Thomas of Oklahoma, which passed the Senate some days ago, were con- sidered this week by the House Committee on Territories.
 The Delegate made an extended statement to the committee, point ing out the advisability of taking action for the relief of the natives of northwestern Alaska and for wider distribution of reindeer among all of the natives of Alaska, including those of the Alaska Pen insula, the Aleutian Islands, and also some of the natives of South east Alaska, particularly the Met lakatlans who have heretofore made request for reindeer for their use.
 Senate Amendments
 The Senate bill included num- Der of amendments recommended by the Department of the Interior which the Delegate strongly op- posed. In the Senate the provisions of the bill as dawn by the Delegate limiting the time within which the purchase should be made, except under court proceedings, to one year, and limiting the price to be paid on the average to $3 per head, were stricken out. Before the House Committee the Delegate pointed out the advantages of these provisions as well as others in the original bill Particular stress was placed by the Delegate on Section II of the House bill, and of the original Senate bill, which author izes the natives in the first in- stance to draw the rules and regu- lations for the government of the range and to submit the same to the Secretary of the Interior for approval. That section was strick- .en out in the Senate.
 Collection of Fees
 The Delegate further objected to an amendment to the bill made in the Senate providing for the col lection of fees for the use of the range. At the conclusion of the hearing the Delegate offered further amendment providing that the bill should not be effective at all unless and until at least $1,- 100000 of the appropriation. author ized should be actually appropriat- ed and available for expenditure.
 The House Committee ordered a favorable report on the Senate bill much the same as passed by the Senate emitting all limitations of time and price with respect to the purchase of the reindeer, emitting also Section Il which was designed to give the natives large degree of home rule with regard to rules dilu lCSuldtloiio. AAii> oSCUioh Wdo omitted because of the statement of the department that the proceed ure therein indicated would prob ably be adopted in any event to the extent that the natives would be fully consulted and their wishes ascertained before any rules and regulations were promulgated and that Section Il as drawn might make it impossible to change rules and regulations to meet changing conditions and preserve the range. The committee did, however, at the request of the Delegate, strike out the section of the bill introduced

DANGEROUS REMEDY

Once in the Presidents office, sometimes after an irritating wait in an anteroom, the Congressman is welcomed with a How are you, John? How's the corn on Podunk Prairie?" The President tells a good story and four of the five minute allowance for the conference is gone. Then he becomes serious and asks, What was it you wanted to see me about?" Before the Con- gressman can get to the predicate of his first sentence the unacceptable Mcintyre comes in to indicate time is up.
 There is a remedy for it, of course. The President can come to the con- clusion that he just can't see certain grades of Congressmen. But in a democracy, how does the President get across an idea like that with out a scream of dictator?
