Mr.. Garner may now feel like returning
to the White House fold.
Yet the difficulties that President
Roosevelt faces in trying to build his
party into party of liberals are almost
overwhelming.
In the South, the party machinery is
pretty we'll dominated by commercial in
terests and big land-holding groups,
while the President is directing his ap-
peal to the tenants and the new indus
trial workers. many of whom are denied
the vote either because Of race or because
of failure to pay poll taxes. In the North.
the party control in larger cities is pretty
much in the hands of old-line bosses who
have close connections with the very
business groups that the President pre-
fers to keep at arms length.
But Mr.. Roosevelt obviously is making
a dent in that situation.

levels and 1t Is expected that by the

1t is found that these catacombs contain
the bodies not only Of baboons. but of 4
ibises. These bodies are all mummifisd
and are readily recognizable. There isV'

ritual was held. The walls are decorated
with signs Of the zodiac and many other
early symbols and signs.
Fine examples Of faience ware In chal-

art. The mummies are adorned with
jewels, but 1t is certain that at some
time, perhaps centuries ago. the cata-
combs had been found by vandals and
many jewels and rich ornaments been
stolen, but still many remain.

moreover, MI. LIE Mile is not g. man
to make such nominations lightly and
he seems definitely not to have done
70 in the case of Miss Gaal.
That he thought great deal Of her
talents is indicated in the fact that
he cast her opposite Fredric March
IN the picture. It is rich and ex-
acting part, and Mr.. De Mile was
spending scads of Paramount money
on the picture. That kind of ven-
turing, new actresses in important
characterizations. is of a nature to put
blots on the casting mans reputation.
And the De Miles. you can bet your
last nickel, were never a family to
risk their regulations without being
reasonably certain of the odds.
Miss Gaal. who comes to Hollywood
from Budapest, is a singularly impress
sive young lady. The impact She
makes upon the casual observer, in
real life, of course, is quite as much
upon the mind Gf any as upon the
eye. More so, in fact. She is an i'm
preSsive composite of intelligence,
earnestness and humility which are
three things that are not necessarily
part OF the recipe for becoming popu-
lar on the screen. One has the feel
ing that, like Luise Rainer, she will
be something more than a photo
graphic personality: that if they do
not actually hide the script from her,
she will put something more into her
1mpersonation than appealingly petite
blondness.
Although she has been in this coun-
try but few months Miss Gaal has
mastered the language sufficiently to
speak 1t without an accent, when it
should be spoken without an accent.
That Is not the case in her current
picture. incidentally her first, but it
will be In the next. Miss Gaal seems
Just the girl to make that second pic
ture as much Of a success as her first
one. Unlike so many persons in Hol-
lywood. she never takes time out for
the achievement OF those things which
contribute to failure. Too busy trying
to be genuine artist.

Prince Georges County (Md.)
school ofncials are preparing to con-
fer Tuesday to unscramble complica-
tions over the joint county-Public
Works Administration school expan-
sion project
The diftlculty arises from the fact
that contracts under which the prof.
ect was commenced with county funds
were not submitted to p. w. A. for
approval. P. w. A. officials pointed
out that certain qualifications are de-
manded for P. w. A. funds and unless
these standards had been met under
the preliminary obligations, the
county funds 80 spent could not be
counted against the S. per cent of
the total bill which must be met by
the county.
Status in Doubt.
Supt Of Schools Nicholas Orem said
he doubted whether the expenditures
already made could be counted, which
means additional funds will have to
be raised.
The matter of the wage require
ments may not have been met by
the private contractors, for example"
the superintendent pointed out. I'VE
left that matter entirely up to the
contractors" He was referring to the
P. w. A, requirement that prevailing
wage scales should be paid to workers
on P. w. A. project.

The county has raised and obligated
about $250.00O through bond issues
and planned to raise the rest of a
total of $4,000 by May l.
Although the county only asked for
S292,000 in its original request in
october, 1885. P. w. A. officials said
their engineers had estimated the
project would require a Federal con-
tribution OF $3l9,455 and had con-
f1rmed this with county engineers.
This sum would represent IS per cent
OF the total project.
However" Michael Strauss, P. w. A.
omcial, pointed out the county need
only use as much of this as they
can match at the 1855 ratio. The
money Is not given as a single sum
to be taken or left"
The sum allotted, he said, represents
