CHICAGO, May 24.—The battle over prohibition moves into the Chicago sec- tor next month with the greatest con- centration of forces since the dry laws were enacted. The national political conventions— Republican, June 14; Democrat, June 27—will be besieged by the campaigners for and against prohibition. Liberal organizaticns, most of them comparatively young, will attempt to show their strength in mass meetings, parades and demonstrations. “Dry” forces have sent out the call for a big three-day “loyalty convention” just in advance of the Republican meet- Both sides plan to cco ‘rate on prohibition planks in the party plat- forms and both, at this stage of the game, profess confidence of victory. Fred G. Clark, national commander of rs, sald he expected both parties to go “at least as far as adopting resubmission planks.” Prohibitionists will hold thelr meet- ings in a church within three blocks of the Chicago Stadium, where the politi- cal conventions are to be held. These meetings begin June 10. Plans are being made to seat 5,000/ women at a breakfast June 13. Na- tional leaders who plan to attend in- clude Mrs. Eila A. Boole, Dr. F. Sccty McBride, Clarence True Wilson and Bishop James Cannon. The big show of the anti-prohibition- ists will be the night before the Re- publican Convention opens. On the night of June 13, the Crusaders have or- ganized a motor parade in which they expect 2,000 automobiles to participate. ‘This is to be followed by a mass meet- ing.

CLEVELAND, May 24.—Political leaders here discussed today the pos- sible_significance of praise given Al| Smith, former Democratic presidential candidate, in a speech by Newton D. Baker, considered a possible 1932 choice THE EViniNG RCV;GWS and Leona Powers Stars In “The Vinegar Tree.” HIS is Leona Powers week at the National. As a tittering shrew, who has gotten her past all mixed up, she may be seen with unequivocal de- light in Paul Osborn's satire, “The Vinegar Tree,” which proves that a planist may be a painter and a painter a pianist without much difference in the eyes of certain romantic ro- mancers — Miss Powers saying “Oh, shame— and more shame!” whisk- ing her hands out before her, pressing her fist to her chin, roll- ing her eyes crosswise and sidewise, and drinking in the deep emotion of & memory that probably wasn't a memory, is worth more than one trip to see. Ripped out of the somber gar- ments of “Tiger Rose,” her claws now clipped for good, this efficient star is an ingratiating lady of the “dangerous age,” who is determined not to enter into the first blcom of middle age without making a grab at recalling her youth. Pliant, deft and zatrically ebullient, she injects such fire into the role of Laura Merrick as will make you forget once and for all that she was almost as good last week saying “Yes—by damn!” Mr. Osborn’s comedy, while neither unusually new in thought or crea- tion, is nevertheless a frisky eve- ning's entertainment, but one which might easily be snuffed under_ % pre- sented by thespians not so adept as these Clifford Brookian players. ‘To be noted in the roster of “all- star” talent is the sudden leap into excellence of Ona Munson, along about the middle of the second act; the smooth, supercilious acting of Raymond Bramley; Katherine Giv- ney clouding and beclouding her dark, handsome eyebrows; Donald ‘Woods quite satisfactory in a role a trifle beyond his years, and Owen Davis, jr., proving what a lady said during the intermission—"Why, I can see his dimples all the way from the back row!” Leons Powers. MOTOR OIL. "BEST OIL IN THE WORLD" STAR, All pf this nicely balanced sextet, plus Karl Nielsen encased in shin- ing green livery and the two sets provided with taste by Charles Squires, make “The Vinegar Tree” one of those lively evenings which will probably not be excelled during the season. The idea is that s garrulous ‘woman, planted out in “the sticks,” on 8 week end visit, in the hopes of re- viving a once supposedly great pas- slon. In the midst of this unsuccess- ful revival the poor woman's daugh- ter comes home, all tears and misery, almost steals the Lawrence man from her mother, snubs her adenoidal college lcver and in the end finds happiness where she least expected to find it—as does the mother—in the arms of her slightly surprised husband. A light farce, built along similar lines as Mr. Conard’s “Hay Fever,” - this is made memorable through the aforementioned Miss Powers and though many lines of the others— notably Mr. Davis, who insists with distinction that “first love is always messy like this!” E. de 8.

PORTLAND, Oreg., May 24—By 8 scant margin of 74 votes in complete uncfficial returns, Representative Willis' C. Hawley today had failed of renomi- nation in his race on the Republican ticket against James W. Mott, State corporation commissioner. Complete unofficial returns from the first congressional district gave Mott 30,814; Hawley, 30,740. For the Democratic nomination in the same district which Hawley has rep- resented for 25 years, Harvey G. Stark- weather held a lead of only eight votes over William A. Delzell, with 13 pre- cincts unreported. The vote was: Starkweather, 11,962, and Delzell, 11,954. A third close fight was fought by Democrats for the right to oppose Sen- ator Prederick Steiwer, Republican. ‘With 1,767 precincts of the State's 1,783 counted, Walter Gleason, described as a wet, led Elton Watkins, a dry, 21,480 to 21,013. The prohibition question also figured in the race between Hawley and Mott. ‘The veteran Representative reiterated his stand for prohibition, while Mott urged modification of liquor laws. $50,000 LEFT EMPLOYE Chauffeur Who Always Smiles Re- ceives Inheritance.

C. Appropria- tion Measure. An amendment to the District ap- propriation bill which would limit mothers’ pensions to $75 per month, was attacked by the Trinidad Citisens’ Association last night. A report of the resolution was for- warded to the chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on appropriations. Dis- cussion of the amendment was to the effect that the present amount of the pension allowed by the Government is in many cases too small. An inquiry was directed to be sent the director of traffic asking why traffic lights proposed at the Fifth, Eleventh and Twelfth streets intersections of H street northeast, as well as the inter- section of Florida avenue and West Vir- ginia avenue have not been erected.
