SEE FAILURE FOR BRITISH
 INDIA OFFER
Sikhs Give Flat Rejection to Proposal for Post
 War Dominion Status

NEW DELHI. India. April 1 - The Sikh All-Parties Committee, one of India's many minority groups, issued the first flat rejec- tion to Britain's offer of postwar dominion status for India as the All-India Congress now being held here went into it's second day.
 The Sikhs, who are the Hindu warrior caste, famed for their fierce fighting ability, rejected the plan submitted by Sir Stafford Cripps. British Emissary, on the grounds that it would leave them to the mercy of the Moslem major ity in the Punjab province.
 As result, the Sikhs expected to make common cause agree ment against the Moslems with the Mahasabha organization of Hindu extremists. whose rejection offer already appears certain.
 The chief stumbling block to h. dia's acceptance of the proposal for Dominion grant following the war is said to be in Britain's in- sistence on retaining control of India's defense during the war crisis.
 Cripps, who is offering the pro- posal as a special emissary, has stated that Britain will not revise it's decision to retain control dur ing the war. So intense is the feeling that the conference is doomed to failure that it is said even Cripps is depressed and pessi- mistic.

TIGHT SHOES" E HUMOROUS
 CAPITOL FILM
Famous Damon Runyon Short Story Comes to
 Sueen-Fine Cast

With Speedy Miller, it is like this. When he calls at Grogan's place to put it up to him to open up a nice, refined little game of craps. this Grogan is guzzling old fashioneds and other delicacies of this nature, and he says to Speedy like this, as follows. Get out, you bum" So naturally Speedy is forced to take steps as he does not wish to be called names of this vulgar nature.
 Such is the thumbnail description of the centre-figure of Damon Runyon's short-short story classic, Tight Shoes the Universal com edy which opens tonight at the Capitol Theatre. And in these weighted days Speedy and his friends are very welcome visitors indeed.
 Speedy Miller, as portrayed on the screen by Brod Crawford, may be a personality more than some what on the crude side, as Pro- lessor Runyon might have it. He is, however, far from being a lunk, and he is altogether diverting, and you can say that furthermore.
 In fact, Director Albert s. Rogell has managed to bring this story and each of the characters to the screen in all the ingenious Broad way lore that Runyon writes about so fascinatingly.
