 DULSkTlkG DRAMA
 CAPITOL THEATRE

There are two stars, man and a metropolis, in the late Mark Hell fingers final screen production "The Naked City, a Universal-In- ternational release, now at the Cap- itol Theatre.
 The man is Barry Fitzgerald. The metropolis is New York, the giant city of nearly eight million inhabi- tants, which plays itself in the title role of this thrilling film.
 Fitzgerald is wise, homorous, pa-
 tent, kind, trave and shrewd as a veteran New York Police lieuten- ant who solves one of the most oaffling murder mysteries shown on the screen in long time. New York with its teeming millions, it's vibrant tempo and breath taking street vistas is simply overwhelm- ing.
 The Naked City" was shot right on the sidewalks of New York by producer Hellinger and director Jules Dassin and they did wisely to film their exciting drama in this authentic locals. No sets could pos sibly be constructed to equal the panoramic splendor and the rich backgrounds afforded by the huge city. Hellinger, for years New York newspaperman, knew the city as he knew his own living room and could select the most advantageous and dramatic locations in which to set the story.
 The story of The Naked City, unravels the connection of group of persons with 8 mysterious mur- der Fitzgerald is superb as the po- lice sleuth. Howard Duff, Dorothy Hart, Don Taylor, Ted De Corsia and the rest of the cast give grand performances.
 "The Naked City, is pulsating drama that packs a pile driving punch.

 DEFICIENCY BILL
 Actually, the department will have to submit $49,0O0 deficiency bill to the legislature to cover a trans- portation fund deficit, Ryan said That is because he has no authority to transfer any of the s7O000 sur plus in two other funds to cover the transportation deficit. The diff ference between the $70.000 and $49,OO0 deficit is the $21 GOO esti- mated surplus margin. The board will ask the leg stature to em- power it to shift funds in the fu- ture.
 Other bills which the education board will present to the legisla- ture include: a proposal for an es- timated $l0,0O0 refund to local school boards for interest pay ments they had to make on borrow ed funds because of failure to re- ceive territorial funds; bill to en- power the commissioner or school 4. f1 1a1- the compulsory school attendance law.
 Ryan described his department as the most under-staffed in the ter ritcry for the scope of work it has. He said he has to spend 25 per cent of his time in the field and we need larger staff if the office is to function properly

supervisor to the revised budget at a proposed salary of $6,520 a year. Ryan said the present supervisor could not be kept at the existing S4,l04 salary He said the super visor, well qualified and with doc tors degree, could actually make more as a teacher in any one of several Alaska cities.
 Prospects of board sympathy for teachers salary increases, however, received a setback at the hearing. In response to a legislators query, the two men on the board-Dr. w. M. Whitehead of Juneau and A. H. Ziegler, Ketchikan-said they would not recommend them. They said the teachers had had regular increases in past budgets, and ziegler added the belief there was no indication of any further rise in living costs.
 WOULD RAISE SALARIES
 Ryan responded: "I1l do my best to sell the board on the need of raises for teachers The thre e women memters-Mrs. A. H. Nor dale of Fairbanks; Mrs. Margaret Harrais, Valdez, and Mrs. Albert Peterson, Teller-did not commit themselves on the issue.
 Ryan estimated the department would emerge with a $21 900 sur plus at the end of the present bi- ennium. He said it was made pos sible, at a time when a deficit loomed, by successful negot .ations

Southern Baptists
Erase Geographical
Lines for Expansion
By Cospor Nonnes
Stos SieH coyresponden.

OKLAHOMA CITY, May 21.-
The Southern Baptist Convention
today erased geographical bound
aries as a consideration for ad-
mitting new churches into its
fold.
Many at the convention regard
ed acceptance Of a report to this
effect at the final session as fur
ther emphasizing the increasing
tensions between the Northern
and Southern Baptist Conven-
tions.
The denomination split into
North-South wings at the Civil
War. Southern Baptists now
claim 6,500,000 members. and
Northern Baptists, 100000.
Refers to Merger Plan.
Today's action came after DR..
George Ragland, Lexington, KY.
declared Southern Baptists face
the prospect of finding Northern
Baptists Churches through the
South. overnight. He referred to
a proposed merger of Northern
Baptists with Disciples Of Christ.
better known as the Christian
Church.
Although not as strong as tthe
Southern Baptists. the. Disciples
Of Of Christ CHI so!'es aenominati9p is popular
In other action today, the con-
vention approved resolution
urging Congress to pass a LIBERAL
lied displaced persons bill that
would admit 100000 persons to
the United States in the next four
years.
Calls Act Too Complicated.
The motion, introduced by the
Rev. DR.. Paul Coudill of Memphis.
Tenn. declared thousands of dis
placed persons, unwilling to re-
turn to the countries of their
origin for fear of persecution, are
still in camps "in Germany, Aus
tria and Italy because the Dis
placed Persons Act Of 1948 has
proven too complicated to bring
our fair share to the United
States"
The resolution further urged the
removal "of discriminatory clauses
hampering the main purpose of
the act" but suggested that due
care should be maintained in
selecting individuals friendly to
our form of government and
likely to become good citizens"
The motion to disregard geo.
graphical boundaries, placed be-
fore the convention by DR.. T. c..
Gardner of Dallas, Tex. State
secretary of the Baptist Training
Union, said:
/. Because local Baptist churches
are independent in nature. they
may be organized by Baptists

ence to grievances Of other Bap-
tist churches, or any other re-

toward organic union with re-
ligious bodies that do not believe
in or practice the aforesaid New
Testament Baptist principles as
set out In this report"
DR.. Gardner declared the ten
sion between the Southern and
Northern conventions came out
Of the shifting of populations re-
sulting from the two last wars
many Southerners moving to
other sections. He pointed out
they have kept their distinctive
social and religious emphasis" and
have formed churches in these
areas sympathetic to Southern
Convention tenets.
Charges Alien Immersion.
The speaker later charged in
an interview that many Northern
Convention churches are violat-
ing Baptist principles by allen
immersion" accepting members
of another denomination into a
church without making them be-
come Baptists. He also said they
practiced open communion" al
lowing anyone to partake of the
Lords Supper whether he was a
member of the Baptist denomi-
nation or not"
Two further points Of grievance
cited by DR.. Gardner was the
membership of the Northern Con-
vention in the Federal Council Of
Churches and its acceptance of
committee agreements (churches
within an area agreeing as to
which denomination should build
within a particular section).
