man, with a grave-digger's long
handled spade on his shoulder,

young superior officer, Lieut.. Oliver
Clark, played by John Howard. On
a dilapidated stretcher between
Beery and Howard, the blanketed
body of a major who had been shot
while trying to escape. rested on

SCHULTZ UPH0LDS
PATMAN MEASURE
Publisher Claims It Will In
crease Employment And
Stimulate Recovery

WASHINGTON, May 10. - Up -
George J.. Schultz, publisher of the
Interstate Merchant, st. Louis, Mo,
contended today before a house
ways and means subcommittee that
passage of the Patman chain store
bill would increase employment and
stimulate recovery.
The bill would impose graduated
taxes on individual units of chain
stores.
Schultz declared the passage of
the bill would result in the opening
up of 442,329 Independent stores to
take the place Of 128,482 chain units
which probably would be closed be-
cause of the bill.
This would be a net increase of
314,847 stores" he said. There
would be no vacant stores, but there
would be a demand for building more
stores. There would be at least 417,-
900 more people employed than I'm
der the present chain system.
There would be a building boom
due to an estimated 100000 new
stores which would be required. AT
only $4,000 per building this would
mean $1,000, 900, 900 in new building
operations"
Categorical1y, Schultz denied claims
advanced by earlier witnesses alleg'
ing advantages chain stores pos
sessed over Independent stores, in
Guiding a claim that the former
we're operated more efficiently.

PRIMROSE PATH" MARKS
CAROLINA THEATRE BILL

Sparkling with originality and an
engrossing down-to-earth treatment
of it's m%otivating romance, "Prlm-
rose PATH" at the Carolina theatre,
proves once more that Ginger Rogers
is one of our finest dramatic &C
tresses, and that few can touch Joel
McCrea for robust and likeable he
manishness on the screen.
The two favorites r co-starred In
this absorbing and sympathetic story
of a girl who disowned her dissolute
family and of a boy who didn't know
what real love was until he lost 1t.
Hungry for affection, the girl meets
a young man who runs a hamburger
stand and marries him without let
ting him know the ugly truth about
her parents and her home.
Their brief happiness is shattered
when the girl, aware that her nus
band will learn the facts for himself
sooner or later, brings the boy and
the family together. Feeling that
she tricked him into marrying into
a group of parasites, the boy tries
to put her out of his life, but he
learns that it isn't so easy to do.
The conflict of their hurt pride with
their very real need for one anoth-
er makes for the taut drama of the
conclusion.
Almost pleasing program of short
subjects precedes the feature. 1t
includes Jimmy Dorsay's orchestra
a Fashion Forecast and News
events.
