DAWES SAYSWEST WILL SOLVENEEDS Tells Colorado Celebrants Its Alleged Radicalism Is /Really Conservatism. By the Assoclated Press. DENVER, August 2.—Vice Preal- dent Charles G. Dawes predicted that the agricultural West will eventually find a satisfactory and an “American” solution of it problems throu “energy harn by intell gence,” in an ad- dress ' here last night before 14.- 000 Coloradoans gathered in the Municipal Audi torium to cele- brate Colorado’s fiftieth vear of Statehood. Turning back to the dark days of the '90s, when the West went through the “grueling experi- yijce president Dawes. | ence of a tempo- rary collapse of its fondest hopes,” Mr. Dawes declared that “its people, then as now, in adversity as well as prosperity, stood solidly behind law | and order, American institutions and the American Constitution.” “The West talked some in those " he said, “but it worked more bung, and, being young, it 18 often impatient. Like the voung, it rails quickly at deep-seated abuses. If it sees anything wrong in the ad- ministration of the Government, it dbes not discuss the hopelessness of changing it or the desirability of keeping it because of certain illegiti- mate benefits to the community. It arises and attacks it. “The best friends of the Govern- ment most strongly insist that its power be not abused. It is this tend- ency that is so often misinterpreted in the East as being radicalism. So | far from being radicalism, in its true sense, it is the West's form of con. servatism. The West, when it advo- cates changes in law advocates them because it wants to make government | better and fairer and, therefore, more stable.” The present unrest in the West in coknection with agricultural condi- tions was described by Mr. Dawes as not being based on @ demand that agriculture have preferential treat. ment over other industries, but that agriculture have equal treatment with them under the law.” OPERA MORE POPULAR. Oblcago Seat Sales $78000° for Period of 10 Days. CHICAGO, August 2 (#).—An opti- mistic report on the popularity of grand opera here by the management of the Civic Opera Co.. made public to- day, stated that advance the coming season total $75,000 for the last 10 days, compared with but $2,000 in the like period last year. The ad- vance sales were deciared to equal the total prior to the season’s opening a year ago. The statement added, however, that even 100 per cent attendance at the | productions would still leave the Summer Silk Dresses—now In a sensational sell- ing at notable sav- ings. Choice, AMUSEMENTS| (Continued trom Thirteenth Page.) poorest of her stories and yet one which doesn’t by any means obscure the popular little star, is entertain- ing large audiences at Crandall's Am- bassador the first three days of this week, as well as at Crandall’s Metro- politan. “The Family Picnic,” a Helen and Warren domestic camedy, with short reels and rather pleasing pipe organ music, completes a bill that seems to be finding favor. WARDMAN PARK—‘Thief of Bagdad.” Any one who knows his Sinbad the Sailor or who even pretends to have glanced through the pages of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (to say nothing of Hans Christian Anderson, Tinbad the Tailor, and other five-foot shel es of fairy tales) will be perfectly at home with the “Thief of Bagdad” as played by Douglas Fairbanks at the Wardman Park the early part of this week. The most satisfactory Flying Car- pet of Seven Centuries rises with prac- ticed magic to the aid of the beauteous princess and her adventurous lover, Prince Ahmed (nee the ex-bandit), while the villain of the piece is inevit- ably the suave Chinee, arayed in the most expensive of Mongolian pearls and satin, with_a sinister fan that emphasizes evil intentions with every wave. . . . The heavy-hocked Pegasus that ex- cited the ribald laughter of British audiences, according to a cynical ac- count in Punch, aroused the un- timely snickers of an equally sophisti- cated a ce in Washington. But the picture as a_ whole is very at. tractive, and will no doubt cause many an envious pang to such eiti- zens as are constantly wishing they lived in the good old days when the world was young and ali you had to do was to rub a magic lamp to obtain wealth and happiness. CENTRAL—"Fate of a Flirt.” Summer flappers and girls who yearn may find consolation and per- haps an encouraging lesson in “The Fate of a Flirt,” which is appealing to rather large audiences for the weather at Crandall’s Central today for the last time. If “The Fate of a Flirt” fails to interest or to amuse, one will find that irresistible ‘ Gang” in ‘“Monkey Busi to the standard as a laug entertainer that blankets all competi- tion.
