On Increase in Taxes

to move this date back at least to

tee was cautious in predicting
when the bill would reach the
Senate floor but he indicated a
speed-up had been informally
agreed upon.

decision which will have the effect
of adding a few days to the hear

Webb Burke. his assistant.
Garageman Jesse Marrs recog-
nized TAFT when the gunman

bile and asked to have it serv-
iced.
He was very quiet and pleasant
and didn't act at all nervous" Mr..

on the grease rack and had it
hoisted in the air. Then I told
our service manager to call the
FBI and that I'd try to hold him
here.
II told the boys not to let the
car down but to act like they were
working on it, but if the man came
over and told them to put it down.

Troffing Race in David Harum,' Now Al 20th Century

An exciting trotting race, upor whose outcome hinges the future oi young couple who are as poor as they are in love. provides an anus ing climax to David Harum," which is currently playing at the goth Century Theatre.
 Will Rogers, as David Harum, is good sulky driver as well as a shrewd horse trader and banker. On the day of the big trotting race of the year, he consents to sit behind Evelyn Venable's horse. an animal which he had used to outwit her in horse trade. The temperamental animal will only run fast when a certain song is played. How David Harum handles the horse and wins the race provides one of the greatest comedy scenes in which the noted cowboy philosopher ever appeared on the screen.
 Tn this race sequence Rogers drove the temperamental trotter like a veteran. Old-time horsemen, whose horses were leased for the race, de- clared that Rogers was almost a counterpart of Ed (Pop) Geers, out standing Grand Circuit driver for many years.

Gun Crazy,' Crime Drama, Opens To-day Ai Capitol Theatre

A wild orgy of crime, depicted against the background of bullet spattered highways, is perpetrateo by Peggy Cummins and John Dall as the stars of the United Artists drama, Gun Crazy" which opens an engagement at the Capitol The atre today. The picture is said to be exceptional in it's suspense and 'in the violence of it's action.
 The film, produced by Frank and Maurice King, is based on MacKin- lay Kantor's Saturday Evening Pest story of the same name, and the screenplay was written by Kartor and Willard Kaufman.
 Early sequences of the picture show Dall as young boy, innocently obsessed by firearms and already an expert shot, but destined to spend a term in a reform school for steal ing a revolver. Later, as a young man just out of the army, he meets and marries Miss Cummins, the Annie Laurie Starr of the story, a ruthless carnival sharpshooter who immediately leads him into life of crime.
 A series of holdups by the poir follow each other in rapid success sion, but Dall's horror at the turn of events is overcome by his mutual infatuation for the girl. The situa- tion is complicated by the fact that Laurie is a brazen killer, while Dali shrinks from taking the life of even a wild animal.
 Eventually the boldness of the criminal couple brings about a sav- age pursuit by officers of the law, with two of Dall's boyhood chums forced by circumstances to conduct the final stages of the chase.
 Gun Crazy" was directed for King Bros. by Joseph H. Lewis, and the cast supporting the stars in cludes Berry Kroeger as a drunken carnival owner; Morris Carnovsky as a judge; Anabel Shaw as Dall's sister; and Harry Lewis and Ned- rick Young as his boyhood chums. The production was designed by Gordon Wiles, and the musical score was provided by Victor Young.
