WEIRD SCREEN PRODUCTION AT
 CAPITOL TONIGHT

Three of the screens most fla nous and fearsome horror charac- ters, are teamed in Universal's House of Dracula", at the Capitol for tonight only. Lon Clancy ap- pears as the Wolf Man. John Carradine is seen as Count Dracu- la, human vampire, while Glenn Strange portrays the Frankenstein Monster.
 The original screenplay by Ed ward T. Lowe, described as an out standing example of shudder-lit- erature, deals with the dubious sur gical experiments of noted Euro pean scientist. Onslow Stevens one of Hollywood's most competent performers, has this unique role His attempts to remove the were wolf curse from one of his pa- tients gives the story its arresting motivation.
 Count Dracula is another of the scientists subjects and it is the batmans interest in the surgeons beautiful assistant that brings the plot to its eerie climax. Martha ODriscoll has the dramatic role of the assistant. Another popular ac- tress, Jane Adams, appears as a hunchback, who, in the end, is killed by the Frankenstein fiend.
 Startling photographic effects by cameraman George Robinson, are said tc intensity the films fasc.n- ating qualities.

There has been no major shipment of food here since the Tongass on August 25 The North ern Voyager was in port october l3 but she carried no meat since she has no cold storage There has been n fresh meat, bacon, ham, flour. eggs, butter and shortening or oils.

|AFL Invites
'Rivul Unions
Back Home

Miami, Fla. - .(FP). - All labor
unions, including the rival CIO, were
invited to come "home to the parent
federation" as the AFL executive
council closed its midwinter meeting
here. The appeal was construed by
some newsmen as the AFL's first shot
in major organization campaign.
Cheered by the return of the United
Mine Workers, and hopeful that the
lntl. Gssion of United Brewery and
Soft Drink Workers (unaffiliated) }
would soon be back in the fold, the
AFL council authorized a committee
of its vice-presidents to hunt for a
new headquarters site i'm Washington.
Among them was 18th Vice-Pres.
John l.. Lewis.
The $4,000 brewery and soft-drink
workers have been out of the AFL for
seven years over a jurisdictional dis
pute with the Bro. of Teamsters con-
corning brewery truck drivers. The
council told a Brewery Workers COM
mittee to comply with past decisions

council for re-adnission.
(The Brewery Worker, official or
gan of the union, said Jan. 30 that.
reports the union is seeking re-affili-
alton with the AFL at this time are
distortion of the facts" The general
executive board of the union directed
officers to seek information for action
at special conference set for Gin
cinnati, March 27-28.)
At the closing session, the AFL
council authorized Pres. William
Green to send kilograms to members
of the House denouncing the bill in.
troduced by Rep. Francis Case OR, S.
d. to control strikes. The wires said
the bill would cause confusion, chaos,
and will disrupt industrial
relations"
Green also took occasion to denounce
the filibuster by polltax southern
Democrats to prevent action on the
permanent FEPC bill, saying that the
matter should be allowed to come up
for a vote.

"Fact that an increase over last

Wull Street Off On Biggest
Buying Soree In Is Years

New -(FP) Buried in tn
back financial pages of the daily press
is news which gives the full lie t.
industry's flashy big ads claiming
poverty as its excuse for saying No t
labor's demands for wage increase.
The news is that the stock market
is off on dizzy upward spree. 1t has
already risen to the highest point il
the last is years and til still climb
ing. The stock exchange is scene OF
furious activity as buyers jump OF
the gravy train toward what they hope
will be bigger and better profits.
Basis for the sharp upward trend Is
the general expectation that profits
will be even higher than they were in
the war years of 1910 and l945 when
industry made unprecedented profits
after payment of taxes of $52 billion.
Heartened by reports from Washing
ton that idicate the administration is
yielding to the big corporations de-
mands for higher prices, Wall Street
men expect that profits this year will
be 25ee to 500 ahead of 1945.
According to the February Economic
Notes of Labor Research Assn, since
VI Day over half of 81 Standard &
Poore group price indexes have scored
what Business Week calls Spectacular
advances ranging from 209t to 7l%"
and about two-thirds of them are
''now above their 1887 bull market
nights"
The Dow Jones stock price index
rose from l43 average in 1914 to
ITO in l945 and experts believe it
will go well above its present average
Of almost 200 in the coming year.
A recent ruling by the Federal Re-
serve Board requiring 1907 cash mar
gins on stock transactions, which was
expected to be a restraining influence
on the market, actually will not have
any noticeable effect on stock specula-
tions since about 500 has been done
on cash basis anyway.
But despite the epidernic Of buying,
privately some of the men sitting in
their skyscraper offices down in the
narrow, canyon-like streets at the tip
of Manhattan are worried. They con-
slider what's happening an unnatural
boom which, like that OF 1929, will lead
TIA sharp explosion that will blast
the country right back into The de-
preston days. A few think the bast
will come in a few months, others
that it will last for a good part of the
.tar, or perhaps a little longer.

Homestead, Pa. - (FP). - Joe
Awl, one of the young members
striking Carnegie Illinois Steel

day he came to work at the plant.
To-day there are more than

says, "but that day first came in,
the union was just beginning to or
ganize the place and the company
had it's stoolpigeons all around.

low out in the yard near the tracks
of the Union Railroad Co. When |
happened to refer to it later, my.
fellow worker quickly corrected me.
1t was the Onion Railroad Co., he
said. But that's not the name of the
company, | protested.
Don't you know, he said, looking
over his shoulder, that when you're

you can't say the word union out
loud. It's onion boy, onion"
