Timeliness has been the watch

Public Enemy" and Little
Caesar" and the Warner Bros
Cosmopolitan production entitled
Racket Busters" which opens
Monday at the Maryland Theatre
carries on that tradition of live
pictures about live topics.
Since one great essential of this
type of picture is that it seems a
veritable factuaI document Rack
ct Busters" was cast with an eye
mainly to the CONTINGENCIES Of
its characters and the studio exc
cutiyes are sure they did a swell
job when they put Humphrey Bog
art, George Brent, Gloria Dickson,
Allen Jenkins and Walter Abel in
the leading roles.
While the city in which the plot
of Racket Busters" unfolds is
obviously New York, the film
treats of a condition which is COM
mon to virtually every large
American city And it is not so
much the story of what any one
man has done OF can do to eradi-
cate the manifold evils of racke-
teering as it is the story of what
an aroused citizenry can do to put
an end to this civic cancer.
Also booked on the Maryland
program for the first of next
week are the Pathe News, Clyde
Mccoy and his Band and an en-
grossinly interesting miniature
entitled Strange Glory"

Dummy's only diamond was now

East showed out, declarer realized that
dummy's club suit was good for only
three tricks. At the same time two
more diamond leads would be needed
to remove his opponents honors, and
thus it was necessary to have three
entries to the closed hand. De-
clarer quickly realized that his
only hope of gaining the needed
extra entry was in hearts. Thus he
now led the nine of hearts from

his own hand.
When the unnecessary finesse
worked, the contract could no longer
be defeated. A second diamond lead

provided one entry, which was used to
knock out the diamond ace. Finally

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

When Benes went to Paris. and said
"there was a Czechoslovak nation"
shouted Adolf Hitler, "Benes lied"
When Hitler said that he was not
speaking fairly. Benes went to France
in 1918 and told the leader of the
allied nations about the hopes Of the
Czechs and Slovaks, who had been
under the rule Of Austria Hungary
for a long time. Benes asked the
leaders to recognize" the Czecho-
slovak nation. He described the work
Of Czech and Slovak soldiers who had
taken arms against Germany and
Austria Hungary.
One Of the things President Wilson
tried 10 bring about was the right of
people to decide their own future. If
the Czechs and Slovaks did not want
to be under the rule of Austria
Hungary, he was ready to stand for
their freedom-and he did stand for
it. The United States Government
recognized Czechoslovakia as a nation
before the armistice took place.
Often it is hard to say what should
not be called "a nation" There is
no doubt that the allied leaders made
mistakes, but they succeeded in free
ing some groups from being ruled in
. way they did not like.
When the World War broke out,

Czechoslovakia contained about 49,
100000 people before the frontiers
were changed at the demand Of Hitler.
Most of them were content to live in
the country, but some Of the "Sudeten
Germans" made loud outcries before
being united with Germany. How
they will feel under Nazi rule Is \
question for time to tell.
Edward Benes became president
after Masaryk gave up his office. The
fact that Czechs and Slovaks have
worked together At almost all times
shows there was good reason for them
to unite in forming = nation.
