CLOSED SATURDAY AFTERNOON “For Better Appearance” CALL MUSIC HIGHLIGHTS PEAK MOMENTS OF FILM AT CAPITOL for Republic Studios, now showing at the Capitol Theatre, is a sig- |nificant event, musically. It intro- duces a revolutionary method of | presenting fine music through the ating some of the finest composi- tions of several of the immortals into the dramatic action and dia- logue of the story. Undoubtedly it is a production that will set a new and exciting Hollywood trend in motion. flows from the inspired [inger of Artur Rubin: greatest musiciar of our time, All Rachmaninoff 2nd Pi: Concerto is played almost in i entirety, and in this the music of an pieca symphony orchestra under During the film, twenty composi- tions from the pens of several great composers are played by the Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Mo- Lotos and, of course, Rachman- inoff, whose 2nd Concctto is the theme music of the picture as well as the dramatic highlight. Ouviously, with the amount of music involved and the coordinat- ing of the action, Rpbinstein dos not play all the works in ‘their entirety. However, the Concerto ments, with only minor cuts in each. The same is true of several of Chopin's compositions and the “Liebestodt.” Beethoven's Sonata is heard in portion of the first and third movements.

To Lords Today The House of Lords was to re- ceive the bill for debate on sec- ond readirg during the afternoon. The act continued indefinitely and made applicable for the new purpose of coping with the nation- al economic crisis the emergency powers given the government, then Conservative, at the L2zinninz of the war. The powers were renew- ed on a short-term basis in 1945 to cover the transitional period from war to peace. Thc government has not indi- cated the extent it plans to use the powers. The vote in the House, whicn consists of 640 members, was rela- tively low because many tired dur- ing the session and went home. The Labor majority made the re- sult a foregone conclusion. Endanger Lberties The vote on the third and last reading of the bill was completed at 8:49 a. m. after the Labor majority had fended off cease- less opposition efforts to kill amend the legislation on the ground that it would endanger the nation’s “hard-won liberties.” | But the government, using its prepondent majority, beat down every challenge and only once did it accept an amendment. That was one offered by Liberal leader Clement Davies which guaranteed that the government would not use its sweeping powers under the bill for “suppression or suspension” of the press, { Deputy Prime Minister Herbert |Morrison agreed that ' the use of such powers against the press “certainly would not be justifi- able in circumstances of peace.” NOTED TEXANS STARTING TOUR AT ANCHORAGE | ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Ang. 12 ;—-IM—Jphn Shej d, ~of Glade- water, Texas, president, of the'U.

An additional con- tingency previded for by a figure cf $9,046.75 in the budget is opera- ;tion of the Native School.

H Budget Recapitulation A recapitulation of the budgzet adopted by the Council last night shcws the following fund allot- ments by departments: Administrative expense $161,505 (including $15,300 for depreciation reserve, contingencies and refunds) ; Pclice Department operations $35,- 25C; School activities (including provision for operation of Native School) $80,000; Library $4,351.72 Health Protecticn $9,660; Munici- pal Wharf $2,761; Cemetery $3.- 800; Street Lights $8,000; Small Boat Harbor $11274; Street De- partment cperations $33,200; Parks 3and Playgrounds $2,700; Fire De- partment and maintenance of hy- drants $18,520; proposed additions and permanent improvements $33,- 700; new equipment $17,495. Total $422,216.72. The amount provided !{or administrative expense also in- {cludes insurance payments and the $75,000 bank loan plus interest. Though the total amount of the !'budget adopted considerably ex- ceeds last year’s, allowance for bookkeeping differences shows most items nearly in line with expendi- tures for the previous period, with |most increases due to higher sal- aries. A very few budget items are below those for 1946-47.
