SPLENDID SINGER
 IN STATE CINEMA
Deanna Durbin Starred in 100 Men and a Girl Be-
 ginning Today

Deanna Durbin, scintillating star of Three Smart Girls" comes to Warner Brothers State theater to- day for a four-day engagement in latest success 100 Men and Cir" !" Again Deanna fills your heart with the joy of youth as she sings, more gloriously than before, 8 repetoire of songs containing everything from operatic arias to popular melodies.
 But the little IA year old girl is more than splendid singer. She proves she is an actress capable of portraying all shades of human emo- tion, although this IS only her sec- ond picture. The fine beginning she made in Three Smart Girls" is ex- celled in HOO Men and a Giri' Deanna has delivered. She measures up to the responsibility her produc- CTS placed on her when. they made her a star and hung the film offer ing on her young shoulders.
 Another reason for the entertain ment value of the picture is Leo- pold Stokowski, who conducts the orchestra of 100 musicians through several offerings of stirring appeal. World famous as the leader of the Philadelphia Symphony, he now pre- sents music through the medium of the screen, so that all audiences may know how beautiful great music can be.
 Adolphe Menjou gives an enjoy able performance as Deanna's father. He, like 100 other musi- clans who are his friends, is almost penniless because of the scarcity of musical engagements. He finds a well filled purse belonging to a rich woman and Deanna returns it to the giddy society matron. That lady is given fiuttery, dizzy, humorous animation by Alice Brady.
 Deanne sings at Alice Brady's tea party and the fiighty woman says she will do anything to show her appreciation. Deanna gets an in- spiration and obtains Alice Brady'e promise to sponsor an orchestra Deanna rushes home to her father and he organizes 100 men for re- hearsal, mourning obligations.
 Just when Deanna becomes en- thusiastic over the turn of events she learns that Alice Brady has sailed for Europe and forgotten her agreement. Deanna visits the rich Noman's husband, played with a light sure touch by Eugene Palette, He says, "Get Stokowski to conduct this orchestra and I'll sponsor It.

Hayes--Tiden Contest

Sixty years ago. there occurred the most bitter and
long drawn out political contest the United States
has ever experienced when dispute arose over
counting the electoral votes for Rutherford B. Hayes
and Samuel J. Tilden, candidates for president.
Tilden, Democrat had 184 undisputed electoral
votes, while Hayes, Republican, had 165. But dupl-
cate returns were made from Florida, South Carolina,
Louisiana and Oregon, with 20 electoral votes certi
fled by conflicting state authorities. La order to win
the election Tilden needed only Of the disputed
votes, while Hayes needed them ALL 1876 being neces-
sary to choice
Finally, after much wrangling, Congress passed a
special act, creating an electoral commission, COM
posed Of members Of the Senate, House and the Su-
preme Court Is in ALL to decide the issue. By strict
party vote of to Z all 20 of the contested electoral
votes were given to Hayes and he declared elect
ed.
Party feeling ran high and even threats of another
civil war were heard, but camer counsel prevailed,
Tlden himself advising his adherents to accept the
finding of the commission, which was approved by
Congress in joint session March g. 1877 and Hay
es became president
People took their politics seriously 60 years ago.
Campaign rallies were marked by monster torchlght
parades, with many bands and uniformed marchers,
aud men frequently fought and sometimes deG
through zeal for thir favorite candidates. Now it is
hard to get fifty per cent of them out to vote

Strikes And Public Interest

There is question that the "sit-down" strike of
automobile workers has had the effect of slowing
down the process of recovery Without attempting to
apprase the rights and wrongs of the controversy be-
tween workers and employers in that great industry,
it seems clear that method must be found where
by labor disputes be settled without putting the
public at large to expense and Inconvenience
Much attention is being given to the method adopt
ed in England after the general strike of 1926 when
practically all business and industry brought to
standstil The British law which has been in effect
now for more than ten years, makes labor organic
atons equally responsible with employing corpora
tions or individuals, for any inconvenience to the
general public resulting from disputes wages or
working conditions.
Labor unions in England have to be registered or
Incorporated They are required to make public IL
nancial reports Of moneys received and spent, and
are forbidden by law to use their funds for the pur
pose of supporting encouraging strikes in trades
or industries other than their They may not use
union funds for political purposes except by express
permission of the proper authorities Yet under the
law their right to strike is fully protected
Whether some such plan as the British have evolved
would work in America is difficult to say with cer
tainty It seems reasonable however, that Govern
ment should in some way be able to control labor
disprtes where the public interest is affected and
that Labor should shoulder its share OF responsibility

Amendment To
State Lales Tax
LatO Proposed
By NED RUSSELL

United Press Staff Correspondent
| PHOENIX, Feb. 12-(UP)-Legis-
lation amending Arizona's sales tax
law to permit distribution of the
funds among the counties was urg-
ed here in the state tax commits
sion's biennial report to Gov. r. g.
Stanford.
The commissions report said that
if "A majority or greater portion
af the sales tax revenues" were re-
turned to the counties to pay out
standing warrants and obligations
and extend relief In property taxes.
the counties financial condition
soon would match the states.
The report disclosed sales tax
revenues from July l, 1888, to Nov.
So, 1896, plus license fees and pen
altaes aggregated $7,O87, ,333.7s.
Of the total, the counties received
$544, ,5oO.26: the general fund S.
238,645.64, and the commission
$283.519.13.
In 1885,, the legislature adopted
law eliminating the counties al
location, originally provided under
the sales tax law Of 1888.
Declaring tax delinquencies "a
barrier to further growth" the COM
mission urged the legislature to pro
vide legislative relief whereby the
barrier to prosperity may be
broken"
Another bill reported ready for
introduction in the legislature would
create special commission or IL
unpaid members to give official
status to the governors present
planning board.
The board has approved unani-
rnously the proposed law.
The commission would be en-
powered to advise and cooperate
with state and other governmental
units in developing Arizona ply
sical resources.
Chiefly, the commission would
recommend DEVELOPMENTS whenA the
state is more vitally concerned than
are local government agencies. In
cluded in this section Of the pro-
posed act would be highways
bridges, waterways, flood prevention
works, parks. reservations. forests,
aviation fields, drainage and sani-
tary systems, works for prevention
Of stream pollution, railroad and
vehicle routes, power transmissien
facilities, and public state buildings.
Purpose of the act, it was ex-
nlainad, would be to prevent care
less use of the states resources
which result from either excessive
congestion or excessive scattering
of population
Five members of the commission
would be appointed by the COVER

Floods And Drouths

The eastern part of the United States, which has
been suffering from lack of water ever since the
great drought of 193031 is now getting more water
than needs It is probably doubtful if the net dam
age caused by the floods in the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers and their tributaries will prove to be anywhere
nearly so serious as the widespread distress and
nomic trouble which the seven-year drought cycle
caused. Too much water is better than not enough
water.
Nobody has yet found way to control the climate
and until that is done it is likely that most efforts
at either flood control or drought control will prove
futile at best will be of value to very small pro-
portion of the people.
The theory that floods and soil erosion are the
sequences of human actions in cutting off the forests
and blowing up the plains is frequently expressed
The fact is that there were devastating and sorob
bng floods before there any settlers at all In
America The accounts of De Sotos discovery of the
Mississippi in 1541 tell of the muddy waters and the
floating trees and logs In 1647 Pere Marquette wrote
Of the great quantities of soil and the floating islands
of trees that came down the Missouri
In the long rum nature always strikes balance.
Droughts and floods recr in irregular cvces bue the

the hazards and uncertainties usually comes out

Garlic is said to be preventive of colds. Perhaps
because it would keep people who have them at a

South's opening bid of one diamond
m a three card suit headed by the
ace is quite common, and is often
Used when hand is too strong to
pass and too weak to call one no

over Vests heart over call, South de-
rided one no trump would be pre-
ferable to a raise in spades, even
though he held four in that suit.
The raise to two no trump was quite
sound and might have passed. but
the son decided to make the rather
daring bid of three no trump.
When West doubled and opened the
ace. followed by the queen Of hearts,
South took stock of the situation.
Vests double indicated a strong dia-
mond holding in addition to his heart
suit. and the important problem was
to locate the queen OF spades. South
decided that the doubler was probably
short in spades and had marked his
partner with a stopper, since the suit
had not been supported or rebid.
Having won the second trick with the
king Of hearts, declarer therefore
played over to dummy's ace of spades
and f1nessed East for the queen. He
then ran off all the spades, West be-
ing hopelessly squeezed. West threw
two diamonds, then a club, and
finally blanked his king of clubs rs
the only hope of defeating the con-
tract. However, declarer, who had
carefully noted the discards, now
played the ace of clubs dropping the
king). and fnessed the ten to make

trick.
The most unusual feature Of the
hand is that North and South can
