HELENA, Mont., Nov. 9—When Ed gridder, came out here to coach Car- roil Gollege this season, he was asked if he feared possible earthquakes, such as the city experienced several years ago. “After the Notre Dame- Army game,” said Ed, “a few earth- quakes more or less could make NC difference.” —————— SHEPARD TO FAIRBANKS J.

Tactically, McNary's entranee into the race has an important bearing on how well the other Republican | »gates can invade the west. To date there are four other Senators seeking the nomination, actively or passively. They are Bridges of New Hampshire, Taft of Ohio, Vanden- berg of Michigan and Capper of Kansa It well known that Cappe: only interest in the business is to marshal the midwest bloc behind a farm program. Except as there may be a difference of opinion on what the farmers need—and no Republi- can has advanced a whole program yet—Capper and, McNary should not be in conflict. But with McNary seeking wes ern delegates, it will place the other senatorial figures in a diffi- cult position to contest with him for the votes. Moreover, if he real- ly becomes the leader of the isola- | tionist group, he will be definitely aligned with Vandenberg in that respect and solidly opposed Taft.

In it he is co-starred with Chester Morris The doctor-nurse theme is given a novel twist in this entertaining story sy the unique background. The en- tire action transpires on board an ocean liner bound for San Francisco from Shanghai, with Morris playing a ship’s doctor and Wendy Barrie his assisting nurse. McLaglen is cast as a hard-boiled chief engineer line. The romantic triangle involving the doctor, his nurse and the en- gineer; the conflict between the two streng-willed men, an epidemic that takes a terrific toll in the grimy stoke-hold, and the efforts of engineer to bring tke stricken vessel foundation of the sto drama. McLaglen’s performance as the bullying officer ranks as one of his | best characterizations. His role is un- usually difficult because of the nec- {essity of injecting sympathy into his portrayal of a dictatorial, almost brutal engineer. Morris, as the easy- going but determined doctor, Miss Barrie, as the cool, efficient nurse, make a noteworthy romantic team, and their roles require deft, dramatic delineations S PERMIT SYSTEM OF LIQUOR SALE | ASKED BY ANB {Conditions A?;Deplorable in Villages, Indian Resolution Says (Continuea rrom: J’age One) sweeping unfortunately is corroborated by the large increase of criminal cases among Indians, have consistently |affirmed and we do now affirm that prohibition in spite of all its de- fects (due we believe, to the fact that the enforcement thereof was ipolitical) was and is better than the legalized sale thereof. “However, the interests who make money out of the misfortunes that are created by intoxicationy and who care nothing for the fact that in- toxication has contributed so largely to the poverty and miseries of the Indians and other natives of Alaska, have been able to defeat all our ef- Crammed from the opening to the whose tyrannical rule over the en-|aska or either of them be requested gine room has won him a wide repu- | to pass without delay a bill for a tation as a belligerent bully, but of |law regulating the sale of liquor in inestimable value to any steamship the | ac into port on schedule, represent the | and’ rmt: to better conditions made by’ the present unrégulated sale of Ilq- uor. ; Legislature Criticized “Qur petitions and representations | addressed to our Legislature for a real local option law have gone un- heeded and so the resultant condi- tions among our Indian villages have become deplorable, so much so that even our legislators have be- come alarmed at the growing con- dition wherein entire villages far- ther north barter their furs and other property for liquor.
