w. (. FIELDS K -, FULL OF USUAL i /
 COMIC TRICKS
Capitol Film Shows Well Known Comedian in
 Bank Officer Role

| Filled with F'ieldsian whimsicali- ties Universalis "The Bank Dick, 2 is spilling a big bag of tricks at the Capitol Theatre.
 For years the star. w. c. Fields, has been acclaimed one of the greatest comedians on the Ameri- can stage or screen. The honor has never been disputed, but if any proof were needed, it is here in his latest picture.
 More typically Fields material than any of the stars more recent productions, Fields appears as a special guard in bank, a role he has long wanted to play. Fields is starred solo-which means he has the bulk of the comedy business to carry.
 The original screenplay, by Ma hatma Kane Jeeves, is full of op- portunities for the comedian to play his effective spontaneous, ad
 
 lib type of comedy acting, and director Eddie Cline has wisely all lowed Fields to indulge himself and to make the most of the oppor- tunities offered. Cline is an old time comedian and comedy direc- tor, knows good comedy business when he sees it, whether it is written into his script or not.
 Aiding and abetting Fields in ''The Bank Dick" is a cast which includes Una Merkel, Richard Pur- cell, Shemp Howard, Franklin Pangborn, Grady Sutton, Jessie Ralph, Cora Witherspoon, Dave Oliver, Harlan Briggs and scores of others who appear in the nu- merous comedy sequences with which the picture is crammed.

FIAT RATE IS PROPOSED
 FOR SPECIAL ASSESSMENT

A third plan for raising addition al funds to help the city of Doug las pay off it's bonded indebtedness on the sewer system was suggested to the Board of Equalization at it's second meeting last night as a number of taxpayers joined in a ,round- table discussion with the members.
 A flat sum for each property owner of the town in such amount that the total would raise the sum required is the latest suggestion as apparently most equitable for all. Other methods proposed cen tered on size and location of lots as basis for special assessment.
 There were two or three requests for readjustments of regular assess ments and the Board hearings will probably go to one more session, at which time other complaints may be heard as well as additional ideas for the extra taxation to be in- cluded in their recommendations to the Council

 Practically in every feature Frankie Darro has appeared for Monogram, he is usually seen in some complicated mess in which he and his colored oohort, Mantan Moreland. get everybody involved.
 In Frankie's current feature, "On the Spot" the other offering, he becomes embroiled in a situation which results in a pair of murders.
 Producer Grant Withers lined up a capable supporting cast for Dar- TO. John St. Polls, veteran screen and Broadway actor, was signed for the role of the druggist. Robert Warwick is seen as Cyrus Haddon, bank president. Others signed were Mary Kornman, former Hal Roach Our Gang star, Maxine Leslie, a screen newcomer from New York and Lillian Elliott, who has played Frankie's mother in several previ- ous features.

in connection with wood working machines are covered by the order: Operating power driven woodwork ing machines; feeding material into such machines, helping an opera tor to feed materials into them; having direct control or supervis- ion over such machines; and set ting up, adjusting, repairing, oilins and cleaning them.
 The occupations of off-bearing from circular saws or guillotine- action, veneer clippers where such- off bearing is done directly from a saw table or from the point of operation are also covered by the order.
 Violation Penalties
 q wish especially to call to the attention of employers that a vio- lation of these orders is viola ton of the Fair Labor Standards Act which applies to producers, manufacturers or dealers who ship goods in interstate commerce or deliver such goods for shipment, and heavy penalties are prescribed for such violations" MT Haas said. Alaska employers can protect themselves from unintentional yio- lations of the child-labor provis- ions of the Federal Act by keeping on file birth certificates for all minors claiming to be 18 or l9 years old employed in occupations declared hazardous, as well as cer- tificates for all 16- and 17-year-old minors in occupations not declared hazardous. In Alaska Regulation No 1-J of the Children's Bureau ap- plies. This means that an employer may be protected from an uninten- tional violation if he has on file birth certificate or baptismal certificate for each minor under 19."

These regulations are Child Labor Orders No. and 5, issued by the U S. Children's Bureau un- der the child-labor provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
 Order No 4, Mir. Haas said, has the effect of setting a minimum age of IS years in all occupations in logging and all occupations in any sawmill, lath mill, shingle mill, CT cooperage-s stock mill, with cer- tain exceptions.

Excepted from the order are: Work in offices and repair and maintenance shops; work in the operation and main- tenance of living quarters; work in timber cruising, surveying and log ging-engineering parties; work in forest protection, and work in the feeding or care of animals used i, logging.
 Hazardous Job
