NELSON EDDY,
 MISS V. BRUCE
 STARRED hEpE
Lei Freedom Ring" Ends Tonight df Capitol
 Theatre

The rapidly growing ranks of the screens Western stars are joined for the first time by Nell son Eddy in Let Freedom Ring, romantic and pulse-stirring drama of American pioneer days at the turn of the eos, which ends at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
 Based on an original story by Ben Hecht. who wrote such out standing successes as "The Front Page" and "Scarface,' and directed by Jack Conway who filmed Too Hot to Handle and "A Tank at oxford" the new picture tells the story of the power of the press in a small frontier town and of the fight between farmers of the l960's and ruthless railroad interests.
 Nelson Eddy appears as young Harvard Law School graduate, and a cast of epic proportions was chosen to fill the prominent sup porting roles, headed by Virginia Bruce as the proprietress of a Western cafe. Victor McLaglen, re- gently seen in "Gunga Din,' has another powerful role as the Irish railroad foreman whose fist fight with Eddy in a mountain cave pro- vides one of the thrill highlights of the story. Lionel Barrymore is seen as Eddy's father, leader of the farm faction. Edward Arnold, fresh from his superb portrayal in Idiots Delight, is cast as the Wall Street railroad tycoon Guy Kibbee por- trays a crooked judge, Charles But terworth a saloon pianist, H. B. Warner a gambling house proprie- tor and Raymond Walburn the towns newspaper publisher.

Your liver should pour out two pints of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bioats up your stomach. You get constipated. Your whole system is poisoned and you feel sour, sunk and the world looks punk.
 A mere bowel movement doesn't get at the cause. It takes those famous Carter's Little Liver Pills to get these two pints Of bile flowing freely and make you feel up and up''.

to provide the relief that they considered.
There is little wonder that relief costs

a hearing beforehand to determine whe-

END ALL
REFERRED MEASURES
{ (Alameda Times-Star)

An amendment to end all amendments
is what the state of California must have
if it is to win back the esteem of the coun-
try. The present election is prima facie
evidence that amendments and initiatives
are generally nothing less than rackets.
First campaign to secure signerS to
petitions is staged, then offices are open
ed both for and against the proposition
to be voted upon, often the same group
OF campaign managers working on both
sides of the question.
The state is confronted with a second
vote on the Ham & Eggs amendment,
the first one having been voted down by
250,0OO This amendment was TO be the
one thing on the November ballot for
which a special election was called. But
no, there were other things that should
have been acted upon definitely by the
legislature if we are to expect anything
from that body any longer.
The campaigning for the main issue has
been clouded by the other matters which
have been forced on the ballot, in fact
in some counties and cities local issues
are up for decision. 1t would be far bet
ter to go back to the old town meeting
system of making laws than to do it in
a manner which opens up a field of in
dustry for professional promoters of
elections.
Today chiropractic measure is second
on the list to be voted upon. Third and
fourth are measures relating to loan
sharks, one carrying an appropriation
and another without one. Fifth is the
Atkinson oil control bill promoted by
independent oil producers and opposed
by the large companies.
All of this leads to confusion, for few
voters can act intelligently on more than
one of these propositions. The result of
all this crazy system is that California
is becoming mistrusted over the country.
Our bonds are looked upon with suspi-
cion. Investments are not considered
stable. We are looked upon as bunch
of crackpots on one side and racketeers
on the other.

land will be nullified.
Mr.. Libby also calls attention to
two paragraphs from the Roosevelt
message of last September:
whatever may be the differences
in the controversies at issue and
however difficult of peaceful settle
ment they may be, ] am persuaded
that there is no problem so diff
cult or so pressing for solution that
it cannot be justly solved by the
resort to reason rather than the
resort to force"
Il earnestly repeat that so long
as negotiations continue, differen-
ces may be recOnciled Once they
are broken off reason is baniShed
and force asserts itself And force
produces no solution for the future
good of humanity
The peace societies have redoubl-
ed their drive for American media
ton to help bring the war to an
end. They are attempting both TO
stir up sentiment in the senate
where Senator johnson of Colora-
do had previously introduced a re-
solution urging mediation-and to
get an expression of opionion in ia
vor of mediation from the country
at large.
The president has an opportuni-
ty now such as has never been given
any man in the history of the
world" says Mr.. Libby. He can
bring this var to an end if he will
act. If he doesn't the blood OF mil
lions will go on his head"
In the April message, Roosevelt
asked Hitler to give pledges of nom
aggression to the other European
nations and offered to transmit
those pledges to the nations inVolV-
ed and to get similar pledges from
them in return. IN addition, he Of
fered to summon a world confer
ence to discuss arms reduction and
pledged the United States to take
part IN it.
Imperial Valley press., 1939-10-19

The National Association of Man
ufacturers is holding a series Of
meetings in key cities to try and
make clear to America that indus
try wants no part of another war.
There is a widespread belief that
the United States somehow was
jockeyed into the World War by
manufacturers and industrialists
intent on big profits. 1t wasn't
that simple, as every student OF
war knows. The desire for profits un-
doubtely did its share, but so did
the desire for jobs, the desire Of
the farmers for So wheat and the
desire of te cotton growers for eX-
port markets.
Nothing is simple. and the caus-
es Of a war are among the most
complex of all phenamena.
Assuming that anything at all
was learned from the World War,
certainly industrialists must have
learned these things, and their pre-.
sent meetings indicate that they
have learned them:
/. The big profits, not only to
manufacturers and inGuStrialiStS
but to farmers. workmen, and ev-
erybody else, accrue during neu-
trality. not during war.
2. War itself always brings fix
