| COMMISSIONERS 10 STOP GROWING EVIL OF DOUBLE PARKING} First Steps Taken Toward Pas- sage of Ordinance Pro- hibiting Practice Resolved to “nip in the bud” the growing double parking evil in Bis- marck, members of the city commis- sion Monday evening took prelimin- ary steps toward passage of an ordin- ance prohibiting the practice. Members of the commission said that in three weeks, the time required for passage of an ordinance after it is drawn up, double parking will be pro- hibited in the city. It was pointed out at the commis- sion meeting that some drivers recent- ly have been shutting off their motors, removing their ignition keys, and locking their brakes when double parking. F Traffic Is Paralyzed ‘This makes it impossible for cars parked in the regular parallel lanes to move until the double parked ma- chine is moved. The double parking evil has been growing lately because traffic has been falling off since the first snowfall. The Bismarck ordinance will pro- hibit double parking except for a very short time and only when the driver remains seated in the machine. The time allowed will be only enough for loading or unloading of goods or for picking up or discharging passengers and a fine penalty will be imposed for violations. The commission inspected the anti- double parking ordinances in effect in Minneapolis, Aberdeen, 5. D. and Fargo and Minot. A resolution drawn up by the Bis- marck Central Trades and Labor As- ‘sembly, requesting that married wom- en employed in public positions who are not sgif-supporting be dismissed, was presented to the commission Monday night. The assembly request- ed that men who have families to sup- port be placed in these positions. . No Wives Employed Bismarck, however, has no married ‘women among oo eeme the com- missioners pointed out. ‘The resolution was signed by Max ‘Netzbandt, O. E. Kafer, and G.C. Myers, officials of the local labor or- ganization. ‘Assessments tétaling $4,044.20 for sidewalk construction and repairs in the last year were approved by the commission and permission was grant- * ed to the Sfandard Oil company to erect @ floodlight over its station at Main Avenue and Eighth St. : The November report of Police Chris J. Martineson was approved and several bills were signed by the com- missioners. Novena Services Are Well Attended More than 1,000 persons have at- tended masses celebrated at St. Mary's Catholic church each morning since Dec. 16 during a special novena, according to Rev. Father John A. H. Services are held each morning at 6:30, 8 and 9 o'clock. The purpose of the novena is to pray for divine assist- ance during the present economic sit- uation, Father Slag said. ‘The novena, a nine-day program, ends Thursday. A pontifical high mass will be cele- brated at the church Christmas Eve at midnight with Bishop Vincent Wehrle giving the sermon. Christmas Day masses will be said at 7, 8, and 9 a. m. and high mass will be celebrated at 10 a. m. for the chil- dren of the parish, At the 11 o'clock mass Father Slag will deliver his Christmas sermon. Both at the midnight and 11 o'clock services, the combined men and boys choir will sing the mass, * p variides eb aia od ae | AT THE MOVIES ' PARAMOUNT THEATRE Tomorrow is the date set by Man-! ‘ager Nippert of the Paramount The- atre for the opening of “Blonde Crazy,” the Warner Bros. production featuring James Cagney and Joan Blondel}. These two snappy young folks were together in their last stage venture, and also in their first screen appear- ance, “Sinners’ Holiday.” Blonde Crazy” is the first picture to co-fea- ture them. As bellhop and linen girl in a big city hotel the merry duo go into the ‘business of humbugging humbuggers, with a speed and enthusiasm, which makes the film one of the most en- tertaining of the season. Young Cagney'’s starward flight has been sure and swift. His work in “The Public Enemy”—which was written by Kubec Glasmon and John Bright, who also wrote “Blonde Crazy”—made him favorably known wherever pitcures are known. CAPITOL THEATRE A glamourous personality, captur- ing the imagination of a world of sereen fans has brought stardom to Ivan Lebedeff, charmer and fighting man, who turned his back on a bril- liant career as soldier and displomat to hunt fame in Hollywood. Lebedeff achieves full-fledged star- dom in “Gay Diplomat,” a Radio Pic- ture based on his own life story comes to the Capitol Theatre on Wednesday and Thursday, in a drama of danger, romance and intrigue, centering around the exploits of a dashing cap- tain of cavalry who is given a perilous mission among the women ofa foreign. capital. With his talents given full play for the first time, Lebedeff dominates every scene the brilliant play- ing of Betty Compson, Genevieve To- bin and Ika Chase. The faith of fans who wrote hundreds of thou- sands of letters demanding he be starred, is gloriously justified.
