THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY JAN 30, 1936. Tonight is the Night SN, ‘ORAMA OF "WAYWARD" GIRLS rine SIDNEY FOX DARING DRAMA OF GIRLS CONDEMNED TO SPEND ‘THER YOUTHIN A ~ [ S o SR —ALSO— The Old Grey Mare Alladin’s Wonderful Lamp Freddie Marlin Orchestra WITHOUT CHILDREN and TH ARIZONA SKIES ‘STRANDED' IS Hoffman, Ten Times Polmcal | Wmnor, Is Called “Go-Getter” ; in Home Bailiwick,New J ersey, CAPITOL BILL; REGISTERS HIT Kay F vancis & George| Brent Do Wonderful Work in Film The most dramatic, and the great- »st in heart interest of all the War- n~r Bros. service stories, “Strand- ed,” was shown for the first time veally at the Capitol Theatre last | night, with Kay Francis and George Brent in the leading roles. i “Stranded” is stark drama, al-| though there is comedy relief here; ind there, justeas there is humor in every walk of life. It centers about the life of a[ worker of the Travelers Aid, who| thinks only in the terms of hu-| nanity. She is in love with a hard boiled engineer who is building he largest bridge in the world, and who considers human beings only as cogs in an industrial machine. The clash of characters is the strongest point in the story, al- though the action at times is fast| and as thrilling as the wildest melodrama Kay Francis in the role of the| Travelers Aid worker gives one of Ler greatest screen characteriza-| tions. George Brent is excelient at the unyielding engineer. { i IFIREMEN PLAN " FOR FEB, 12 !Kenneth ]unge in Charge —Affair Scheduled for Elks’ Ballroom " ANNUAL BALL “Treat people right,” says Gov.

ON POLITICS provide abundant re- | National Issues by Kansas Executive TOPEKA, Kansas, Jan. 30.—Gov. Alf M. Landon, asserting that New Deal mismanagement and waste was “delaying the return of pros- perity,” said, “What the country really needs (s better housekeep- ing.” This statement was Gov. Lan- don’s first public exposition of his views on national issues. In it he condemned “half-baked legislation, mal-administration, and dangerous short cuts to permanent changes attempted in the name of emer- gency.” Gov. Landon spoke at the Kansas Day Republican rally, climaxing the celebration of the 75th anniver- sary of the state's admission to the union. Although Gov. Landon is fre- quently mentioned as a possible Republican candidate, he: did not ‘reter to his q;ndidnpy in his speech.

Oliver, James | Gray, Karl Alstead and Guy Gau- | First Statement Is Made on | |ten campaigns for public office has |he lost a fight. Even when he ran (rm- Governor in 1934, the year of |the big Democratic landslides, he won under the Republican banner | with an 8,000 majority when every index pointed to defeat by 100,000. Ever since he displayed six years 1ago his desire to become Governor | he has been ruthlessly hounded and ' Iridiculed by his enemies, but steadi- ‘ly he grew stronger and stronger | “Hal” Hoffman knows a secret. |“Treat people right,” says he, “and ! they're your friends.” Answers All Mail ; Right now, when public journals ;are saying nasty things about gub- ernatorial “interference” with the machinery of justice, Gov. Hoffman is making political hay. Neither fan mail nor pan mail winds up in Hoffman's wastebasket. Every letter of the thousands re- ceived in his office is answered by | the Governor. Maybe he didn't dic- ‘!ate the answer, but this much is certain: he read the reply, and the signature at the bottom is his. Only a few hundred letters were {received each day until the noc- |turnal visit, but now they have [zrown tremendously and come from | {all over the country. “Hi-De-Ho” Campaign The Governor is a man of per- sonal following — a following nat confined to his home State. Broad- way and Hollywood have come to his @ssistance many a time. For a year before he became candidate for Governor, high-priced stars came in droves to perform at his “Saturday shindigs” in a local ball- | room with no ticket-takers at the doors. The performers, it was said, received nothing—and wanted noth- | ing. “Hal” Hoffman, they boasted, | was their friend. And when they| lappeared on New Jersey stages they often dropped subtle boosts for “Hal” His enemies called it the “hi-de-hi-de-ho campaign.” E A man of swift energy, he often | stays up all night. Rarely does he| appear at his desk—one or another | —later than 7:30 in the mornmgv Persons who know him well say he| eats more church suppers than| any man in New Jersey. He con-| tinually flits from one public gath-| ering to another defending the sales | tax he won after six months’ fight, only to see it repealed. | Funster During the past year he has spread out over the country. He stands high in the circles of World War veterans, and in his out-of- State speeches he tut-tuts the Roosevelt Administration. “Back to the Constitution,” is the gist of his national platform so far. Once regarded as one of New Jersey’s handsomest men, the Gov- ernor has grown portly and shows signs of wear the past five years. He never exercises. When he wants to relax he just sits and smokes long cigars. His sense of humor is well known. One of his favorite tricks is to pull a black typewriter brush out of his desk and place it under his nose, let his hair fall over his forehead like Adolf Hit- ler’s, and thrust a hand forward in Nazi salute. i | § i urday, Feb. 1, at the Service Elec- | tric Shop, Seward Street.
