7 CHAINED" STARS I CRAWFORD, GABLE MONDAY, TUESDAY With "Cfccined", the new MetroGoWwvn-Majer picture to be shown ot the Murphy The a a e. Joan Crawford and Clark Gable win ntw laurel* for their already glistening crowns. For "Chained" is an execefcent Ficture, expertly mounted, directed and a?*:ed. Clarence Brown?wh> gave us "Sadie .McKec-", Joan's last?is also responsible for the sp'endid direction and pace of the new picture. A Diane, modern. Manhattan miss, Joan Crawford brings a new and vivid charav tirization to the screen. Clark Gable holds up his e id with more than sufficient skill and charm as Mike, likeable y ?ung rancher in South Ame: ica. The supporting cast is equally fire, with Otto Kruger as' Mr. Field, the "other man." in the case; Stuart Erwin in tne role of Johnnie, wisecracking friend; Una O'Connor a-- the sympathetic companion, and Marjone Gates.>n in the *v.K- nf Mrs. Field Chief Honors to Stars But excelent as all other phases of the 'production are, chief honors go to the c -stars who. brilliantly cast, turn in tperfoi.nances that compare well with the finest -creen characterization of the year. George Folsey outdoes himself with 1 the photography, and the > ame thing t can well be said of the striking Adrain i gowns, which are much in prcmi- i nencc. t 'Thc? story was written especially c for the screen by Edgar Selwyn and wa adapt'd by John Lee Mahin. 1 Healthiest Boy .

COST OF TALKING?The order >f the State Utilities Commission relucing Southern Bell telephone rates n 5fc North Carolina communities' las received a delay by order of >uperior Court Judge <\V. C. Harris. rhc court injunction halts the proved reductions in rates until the ompany's appeal is heard in Superil' Court which may be in January r several months later.

FERTILIZER?Governor Ehring- ' aus and Commissioner of Agricul- r irre William A. Graham are going to ^ at for fertilizer prices in North { aiolina. T-n-c Governor writes that j a is unable to understand the up- t ing o>f fertilizer prices in 1934 over q lose of the year previous and wants q ir. Graham bo assemble data and at- n nd a conference on the subject to <0 held in the nation's capital in the q ar future. Fertilizer and gasoline r 1 ices hav? been worrying the Gov- ^ rn*or almost as much as the in- ^ rease in tobacco prices has pleased j im. BUDGET MESSAGE?What's in v he report of the Advisory Budget t .'omnr*ssion to the General Assemn'y j s a closely-guarded secret and newr- ] nen snooping around the offices of t rlnters for the State haven't been ] ble to learn much about the bud- 1 jet recommendations. You can put t >ne thing in your pipe and smoke it, ? lowever, that is, that the budget Proposal will contain a suggestion for r? enactment of the sales tax with ome revisions. It may be lie?bral ;n?ough to suggest that the sales tax :an go by the board if the legislators ?an find the money elsewhere. The Budget Commission is friendly to the administration and Governor Ehringlaus has publicaly stated the "emergency" for which the sales tax SALE- | rER, Motor in good | !xood Bumpers, Six ? Price Reasonable. Palmer I Murphy, N. C. Scout, Murphy, North Ca , was enacted has not passed?you get what that means. The message also may contain suggestions for higher t.acher-pay. DIVERSION?Don't be surprised] if anti-sale* tax leaders urge that four oj. five millions of dollars from the taxes paid by 'motorists and truckeis for building roads fce diverted to replac the sales measure. Farmers living on the secondary road system may not object to this but they want the holes filled up and the bridges repaired before their gasoline and license taxes go for some other purposes. Most of them wouldn't object to lower automobile taxF. SITTING PRETTY??Friends of Governor Enringhau- have spent iverks checking over names of members of the General Assembly and ire wearing big smiles these days. \dministration stalwarts avow that Sis Excellency is sitting On top of he world with a good majority of :ri = nd* in the Senate and are confilent that no anti-administration bloc >f dangerous proportions can be orranized in the House. But with all hat some Raleigh political writers Drofess to hear rumblings of trouble oming for the Governor on the eve )f the Legislature. MARRIED LIFE?Watch for a novemcnt in the Legislature bo pass : law against married women servng as public school teachers. Alexindcr B. Andrew.--, of Raleigh, has ompiled seme figures which show ;hat approximately 4,000 married vhite women are teaching school in ^lorth Carolina. Some States have ules against employment nes arc available and sentiment for ;uch a law in North Carolina has >een cropping out in spots recently. GETTING TAUT? Political linos ire drawing tighter in the Capital rity these days and you need root be l political wise man to sense the 'orming of igroups behind the favorte candidates for Governor and the Eastern Senate seat in the classic ?f 1936. Probably the most prolouneed single groups are those betind Governor Ehringhaus and Senaor Josiah W. Bailey and there's no onger any doubt many people want he Governor to oppose Mr. Bailey. )ther blocs are forming in behalf of 'lydc R. Hoey, of Shelby; Congressnan R. L. Doughton and Lieutenant rovernor A. H. (Sandy) Graham for lovernor. Doughton and Hoey may nake some announcement shortly ?ut -Governor Graham is -expected to iold his peace until the end of the egislative session. LIQUOR?Several months ago it vas a generally accepted opinion that his General Assembly would shy iway from any efforts to change Mortih Carolina's dry laws but as the :ime for convening draws nearer the prohibition question has stepped boldly into the spotlight of specula:ion. From all indications the Drys still have the situation well in hand but a lot of folks -can't figure -out just what is happening bo bring out an apparent chanige of sentiment in some quarters. You can find plenty of officers of the law suffering head- j aches since Virginia legalized liquor and Tar Heels began week-end excursions into the Old Dominion. Some of these same arms of the law privately express the hop? that something will be done to liberalize the State's liquor laws at the coming session. RIDING A WAVE?Unless some dark-horse steps out into the light Thad Eure and LeRoy Martin will be unopposed for reelection as princfnal clerks of the TIousv and Senate , respectively. The speakership race is still an uncertain quantity but here'' the line-up of candidates in the order i that most of Capitol Hill wise ones place them according tx> strength? Robert Grady Johnson, of Pender, first with Laurie McEachern, of Hoke, running a close second and Willie Lee Lumpkin, of Franklin running third. How accurate this estimate of strength is will be determined in the Democratic caucus on the night of January 8. irolina OBITUARY 3 In the passing of Mrs. G. W. Pen- t land, of Hayesville, .North Carolina, on > January 4,* 1935, Mt. Pleasant Bap- t tist church and community -lost a most loyal and faithful member. She reared a useful family and leaves to mourn !' her loss four children and a number of grandchildren. Grandma Penland as jftie was call- s td by all who knew her, lived to be J eighty-two years and oight months 1 old. Her life was an inspiration to all who knew her. She was truly Gods servamt and witness, letting her light shine ifor the -Master where- *= ever she went. I would urge her loved ones not to grieve as those having no hope, for some glad day we will clasp her hand r again and gaze upon her startling fact over 'on the other side where she resides with Jesus.
