''Irish Eyes Are Smiling Draws Big Attendances
 10 Strand Theater

Sure and from the sight of the fun-filled shenanigans on the screen of the Strand theater last night, it's a broth of a time local movie-goers will be having with Damon Run yon's Irish Eyes Are Smiling" The new technicolor musical starring Monty Woolley, June Haver and Dick Haynes is true four-leaf en- tertainment from start to finish.
 The picture revolves about the life of Ernest R. Ball, Americas great est composer of sentimental ballads.
 Monty Woolley is cast as the fab- ulouS man-about-town, Edgar Braw- ley. Lovely June Haver, is seen as Mary Irish" O'Brien.
 June's romantic interest in the film is Dick Haynes in the role of Ernest Ball, the singing-composer who rose from obscurity to the toast of Broadway.
 Anthony Quinn as million gambler; Beverly Whitney as a temperamental prima donna, and the inimitable Maxie Rosenbloom as Stanley Ketchel, all provide won derful performances.
 When it comes to sheer musical delight, Irish Eyes Are Smiling is tops. The theme of the story is, of course, a natural for am usic- al, and the picture is crammed with some of the sweetest songs heard this side of heaven.
 The companion feature is ''In The Meantim e,Darling", starring Jeanne Crane, the sweetheart of Home In Indiana"

It Is quite evident from the
reports that what we need Is
more dollar-and-cents ceiling
prices with a more effective en-
fOrcement program; enough
money must be allocated to the
OPA to really make enforcement
possible.
PROFITS IN LUXURIES
1t was pointed out that unless
prices were set on non-essential
articles, there was danger Of
money and manpower being di-
verted from essential work TO lux
ury production because of the
higher earnings and profits to be
made in such production.
Subsidies must be used TO pro-
tect certain producers from a loss
due TO price ceilings.
SAVINGS IN SUBSIDIES
If prices are not controlled 1t
will mean untold privation and
suffering for people on fixed in
comes such as, dependents of serv-
ice men, pensioned veterans of
past wars and veterans of indus
try who have no control over their
incomes. This would mean that
the morale of these people would
be seriously lowered, thereby Sc
riously affecting the morale of the
men in service.
We must not permit this TO
happen, regardless of personal sac
rifice.
