rocked by its own disputes and now
splitting over John L. Lewis truce
plan. drifted further from peace today
while President Homer Martin counted
new support for his forces.
What once was a fight largely con-
fined to U. A. W. circles appeared to
be developing unmistakable signs OF
duel between the union president
and the c. l. o. chieftain.
An open break between the two
labor leaders was emphasized by Mr.
Martins sharp criticism of Lewis
tactics in trying to end the unions
factional war. To this Mr.. Martin
added his admission of "thorouehly
strained relationship between himself
and Mr. Lewis.
Calls for Reinstatement.
While Mr. Martin has consented ia
present Mr. Lewis plan before a future
meeting Of the u A. W.s International
Executive Board, he left little doubt
OF his own attitude. The Lewis plan
counsels reinstatement of the offcers
ousted in Mr.. Martins Communist
purge"
That" Mr. Martin said, was no
great innovation. We could have
gotten that in the beginning"
Mr.. Martin also said President Lewis
should have sent his peace proposal
to the Executive Board first. instead
OF distributing it to all the U. A. W.

since he entered the Democratic sena-

E. Tydings, Is predicting 4 victory at
the polls September H.
The confidence Of New Dealer Lewis

Tonight at . pm. Representative
Lewis will deliver another radio cam

Although Mr.. Lewis did not admit
he was depending on the President
to pull him through a close fight with
Senator 1ydings for the nomination,
he told Democratic political rally on
the outskirts OF Baltimore last night
he believed there was now no doubt
about his success. In the past he has
rlgidly refrained from making any
forecast about the probable results of
the senatorial campaign, which has

under personal obligation to get into

Maryland want real Democrat to

There were only about 100 men
and half dozen women in q crowd

lea when Mr.. Lewis made that state
ment. They had waited patiently for
his appearance until 1890 pm, but
there was still enough vigor left for
hearty applause.
That reception, even at such 4 late
hour, inspired Mr.. Lewis to add:
IF you believe in the Democratic
platform as Franklin D. Roosevelt
does, and I have the fitness to serve
in the Senate, then Davey Lewis will
do his very, very utmost to prove
worthy as a Maryland Democrat"
Mr.. Lewis delay in reaching the
Democratic rally on Belair road was
due to the fact that at the first po-
liical meeting at which he spoke in
Baltimore-in Lehmann's Hall on West
Howard street.-the was forced to sit
for a half hour or more and listen to
four other political orators.

SLUM PICTURE FEATURE NOW

Boy of the Streets Co., stars Jackie Cooper and
 Maureen O'Connor

From out of the sordid depths of the great city slums rises a tri- umphant story of youth and honor and a boys fight to find himself. It is Monogram's splendid Boy of the Streets" which opens Sunday at the Coliseum Theatre, and it's star is Jackie Cooper, whose mov- ing characterization of Chuck, the tenement tough, definitely estab- fishes him as an adult star.
 Boy of the Streets" is a story of the children who grow up in the somber shadows of the tenements. The camera focuses on Chuck, success worshipper, leader of a gang of young hoodlums, catching him at the sensitive adolescent age when he is first forced to decide what is right and what is wrong. Chucks only ambition is to be big shot, like his father, and when he suf- fers youths greatest disillusionment the discovery that his parent is four -flusher and fake-he at taches himself to Blackie, a public enemy, sinister symbol of the power Chuck means one day to possess. But a greater disillusionment the discovery that gangster methods are cowardly, teaches Chuck the mean ing of words like honor, courage, and success. and he goes back home to learn discipline.

IRENE DUNN ME-,
 C0MEDIENNE, IN NEW FILM
The Awful Truth Hits New Hilarity High-Com-
 ing to Capitol

' Sllperlatives as a rule are a risKS business. Nevertheless, "The Awful Truths" reception at the Capltol Theatre, where it opens Sunday Will fully justify the audience. The film is undiluted joy. It is based on the Arthur Richman stage success o1 the same name in which Ina Claire starred. The story is as meaty as it is funny, and happily stays on this side of the 'screwball' sort of screen fare.
 Coming to the screen from the wit-dipped pen of Vina Delmar, author of Bad Girl" "The Awful Truth" depicts the marital mis- haps of the Mariners, played by Miss Dunne and Cary Grant. Wealthy and very much in love with each other, they nevertheless come to grief in the divorce courts when misunderstanding are am- plified with disastrous results.
 "The Awful Truth" belongs on anyone's must" list It is bril- liant high comedy, played with dis tinction and restraint, and never yeers from it's hilarious course. It is sumptuously mounted and was directed by Leo McCarey with su- perb timing and clever charactN l. ration. Miss Dunne and Joyce Compton sing, and the star per forms a mirth-provoking dance speciality with Ralph Bellamy. Out standing in other important roles are Cecil Cunningham, as Miss Dunne's tartar-tongued Aunt Patsy; Alexander Darcy, as a romantic foreign young vocal teacher and Ro- bert Allen, Esther Dale and Robert Warwick.
 Tonight only is featured Carnival Queen" starring Robert Wilcox, and Dorothea Kent. Highlighted by a colorful romance, dramatic action and amusing comedy sequences, the picture deals with the adventures that befall Dorothea Kent, as the lovely heiress who inherits a carni- val from her father.

Sing You Sinners Classed as Going to Be Well-
 LikedProduction
By ROBBIN COONS

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Aug. 27.- You can put your money on old Uncle Gus in the seventh for a sure thing. And you can lay it on the line for Bing Crosby's best and most un-Bingish film to date.
 It's called Sing You Sinners" and it gives Bing and Uncle Gus a chance to go to town
 Uncle Gus is race horse, which is a strange critter to gallop into a picture that's more about one interesting family's troubles than it is about racing. But Uncle Gus has his place and it's a big one. Racing is important too, but it doesn't really solve anything, which makes Sing You Sinners" unique.
 This Beebe family of the story is as real as any that ever sat down to pot roast. There's Ma, who's played to a turn by Elizabeth Pat terson. There's Mike, the kid brother Donald O'Connor, a new youngster from vaudeville), and Dave (Fred MacMurray) who wants to get mar ried but can't because he's the only breadwinner And then there's Joe.
 Joe's nice guy. Ma thinks the world of Joe. Ma does wish, though, that Joe would find something to do. So does Mike. So does Dave and how! So does Martha (Ellen DreW), the girl Dave wants to mar ry. And so, to make it unanimous doe Joe.
 But Joe can't make up his mind He has a lot of ideas but-aS the filling station man says-he "ain't the guy I'd look to for a business boom."
 Well, Joe Chats Bing) leaves home and pretty soon he sends for Ma and Mike so Dave and Martha get married. That's fine until Ma and Mike arrive and find that Joe's passion for swaps has made him owner of Uncle Gus instead of his flourishing swapshop busi- ness
 Sing You Sinners" goes on from there. There's good harmonizing by Bing, Fred and Donald, there's a sensational race and a regular oldtime movie free-for-all On the whole, the flicker's a believable and human piece of work Claude Binyon wrote it and Wesley Ruggles direct ed. You'll be whistling Small Fry Don't Let that Moon Get Away" and "Pocketful of Dreams for sure. The Gladiator" is Joe E. Browns funniest in a long time. Joe plays the boy" who goes back to college as a sophomore ten years after he finished his freshman year. Joe's dad and grandad were hot athletes in their time, but Joe-with muscu-. lar ambitions spurred by June Travis-can't take it. It's hard lines for Joe until old Prof. Danner Gucien Littlefield) gets that serum perfected.
 One shot of that stuff and laugh ing -stock Joe is the strongest guy in the world And finally, on ac- count of needing the dough to adopt Dickie Moore, Joe takes on Man Mountain Dean (himselD.
 If you're not too, too critical you'll agree Director Edward Sedgwick has turned out another one of the kind Joe needs.
