TODAY and TOMORROW (By Frank Parker Stockbridgc) Travel . . . and jtnet&I mike I aiu writing this just an hou/ or feo before sailing on the Ita.ian Liner Rex for my first visit to l,ur ope^ Sixty-two is still young enough for a man to go adventuring, ii' he has the spirit of adventure in him, and I never got over that. p; 1 am very curious to see whether tin? li'orcijyn cities and peoples that 1 have read about and studied auout a I n:y life look anything like the way 1 have pictured them. I have knocked about the American Con tinent ami up and down the coasts in, ships u -great deal but never be fore had both the time and the op_ portunity to cross the ocean. Willi t particularly interests me is (lie sliip oil which I am coming back, the Coute l)e Savoia. This is the first big ship to be equipped with Vyio.-;eo|iic stabilizers, indented by | n:y old friend, the late Elmer Sperrv A gyrosrope is a hard thing to ex plain in words. It is hard enough to .udirstaiid it when you see it working. It is, in effect, a fly wheel - > suspended that the axle can tip in any direction. Sperry discovered that a gyroscope always tries to put itself iu .i position where the axle is pointing to tin* center of the earth, (hit of that discovery came the gyro scopic compass, which always jvoiuts to the North Pole instead of the mag n. tic pole a* the ?ordinary compass p ints. Then came the automatic st oring device iu which the gyro scope keeps the ship's rudder true to the course. Every really important ship in the world is now steered by "metal mike" as the sailors call it. This same power of the gyroscope is now being used to keep the ship from rolling in rough water. It works well on small craft, and I will tel you later how ?t works on the first big ship to which it has been applied ^ -iloney . . . ami prices. - Thirty years a.ro W .1 Bryan . ? nearly captured the Presidency with his economic theory that farmers won d <,'<'1 more for their products if there was more money in cimila_ tion. In a new hook published by the li.'utury Company of New Yolk, F. M. Huntington-Wilson, who was Ten der Secretary of State in the Wilson Administration, handles the same theme, although along different lines. The book is called, "Money and the Price Level." The author poiuts out .exactly what President Hoover meant when he sug gested that the European debts to '.his country might be settled in the currencies of the ^.debtor nations, clearing up that j?oint so that any layman can comprehend the subject. Briefly, Mr. Huntington-Wilson ar_ gut s that the alarmingly low price ' level of wheat and cotton, and all other farm products, are now being caused by the American dollar as compared with the low values of other countries The book has been written after consultation with many of the lead ing experts on finance in both Occi dental countries, among them being Mr. Rene Leon, widely regarded as the leading foreign exchange and metallic money expert in this country Movies . . . &nd Moe Mark An old friend of mine named Moe Mark died the other day at the age of sixty. When I first knew M<>< he was running n little nickelodoon in Buffalo, the kind of a show where you eould put your eye up againsf a peep hole and sec Mr. Edison's first attempt at motion pictures. ' Pretty soon Moe Mark had ? I theatre showing the early prima tiro inotrpn picture p'ays. Before long he had a number of theatres in differ ent Up State New York towns. They weren't theatres rca;Iy, they were merely stores with chairs in them. Moc Mark got the idea that a real theatre built especially fo run mo tion pictures would be profitable. He found it difficult to make anyone else believe it, but he finaMv raised money to build the very first theatre in the world for themselves. Tt is called the Strand and is on Broad way in Now York. Moe Mark was pn? of tl"> J pioneers of the motion pietnr.- in dustry, and if anybody ever ask? yon i who bnilt the first movie theetre, of j which there are some fhirtv thousand ' now, just remember his name. -J ' A '?

WILL SHOW "CKAirD HOTEL" AT LYRIC NEXT WEEK Five stars instead of one shine in "Grand Hotel," spectacular picturica tiou of the celebrated Vicki Baum novel and play, which will be at the Lyric Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. Probab'y no film in recent years has attracted a ? mueh advance atten tion na this unusual screen drama which is described ax a symbolical study of human natnre in startling realism. The play ran in New York for more than a year with similar success accorded its presentation in other American cities as well as the capitals of Europe. In bringing it to the screen Metro Goldwyn-Mayer placed five of its major stars in the central characteri zations. The remarkable cast is h< adcd by Oreta Garbo with John Barrymon', Joan Crawfofrd, Wallace Roery and Lionel Barry more playing outstanding roles. Lewis Stone and Jean Hcrsholt are featured in the largo supporting east. The story, which takes place en lirely within the confines of a fash ionable Berlin hotel, entwines the lives of a varied group of persous, in cluding an exotic Russian danecr ?wboae romafcti* interlude with a reck less baron saves her from suicide but results in her lover's murder. Involv ed in the drama are a scheming bus iness man, a seductive stenographer, a consumptive clerk spending his sav ings on one last fling in life, a shell sboeked doctor and the hotel's head Iprtef. How the^1 people are all brought together and hoW their vari ous intrigues and adventures change the tonne of tlelr ontiro lives forms I the theme of the plot. NO BOTWTY FOB BIRDS 01 WILD ACTUALS THIS YEAR Mack Ashe, county game warden, has received Information from Ra leigh, that thm will not be any money available this year to pay bounty on any wild animals or birds. FARM RELIEF ONE OF MAJOR ISSUES BEFORE CONGRESS Washington, D. C., Dcc_ 7.? Now that Congress in again in session, pol itical forecasters have been driven into the post of mere observers in stead of prophets. The present "lame duelc" Congress it ia expected will enact a lot of legislation that the voters showed last month that they wanted. Foremost of these questions are liquor and farm relief^ Although the resolution for outright repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment failed to carry the necessary two-thirds ma jority, it is thought an attempt will be made to legalize beer during the present session. While it is admitted on all sides that both Houses possess a Democrat ic majority big enough to pass any legislation they desire, yet it is equally eertain that the Senate lacks the required two-thirds majority to override the President's veto should it pass laws Mr. Hoover fails to ap_ prove. Close observers say tfeat the President will block any attempts to change the sumptuary laws while he i? in office. They say, however, that he is not uulikely to sign a bill pro viding for a referendum by tbo States on the proposition of repeal ing the Eighteenth Amendment. That would be in line with his own cam paign promised and would steal some of the thunder away from the in coming Administration. In addition it would be pleasing to practically all the voters of both major parties, judging by the sentiment shown dur ing the campaign. Regarding farm relief, Congress is likely to require long deliberations be fore taking any definite steps This is shown by President-elect floonc velt's recent action in calling into consultation the farm leaders of the country. Practical y the first delega tion to be seen by him since his elec tion was one - from the National"* - Grange, headed by Louis J. Taber, of Columbus, 0., national grand master Governor Roosevelt has never tried to dodge the fact thaf lie owes his election to the farmers of the coun try and, now that the time has com? when he has to fulfill his pledge*, his action in calling in the Grango leaders show that he is anxious to keep his promises While he made no positive promises to Mr. Taber and the other members of the delegation which called on him at Warm Springs, Ga., yet he definitely asked his callers to set down in black and white what they consider a workable program. He asked the Grange lead ers to formulate, if possible, a pro gram based upon his Des Moines speech To Formulate Program What this program ia to be will probably become known after a mcot Lng U held of the big farm organiza tions, including the National Orange, the Farmers Union, American Union and the Co-operatives. At that meet ing, i? it follows Mr. Roosevelt 'a sug gestion, the delegates will prepare a bill for submission to Congress next Spring that will have the President to-be 's approval, along with the sup port of leaders of both Houses of Congress, making its passage prac tically certain. One promise that Governor Roose velt indicates wH not he allowed to string along without fulfillment, is , .<> financial relief for those farn:oi?i? whose mortgages have not yet been foreclosed It is said that he feels th- ( shortest way out of the present im- < passe is to extend all such loans by means of Federal aid, and to lower the interest rate to the point where; the loans ean he carried without pri- ? vaiton. This will be done, it is ex pected, by broadening the powers of the Reconstruction Finance Corpora- ft tion and speeding up the work of the Farm Loan Bureau 0. M. COLE SERIOUSLY ILL Geo. M.
