A company has signed @ contract with the Afghan government to build a talkie theater in Kabul, and in the meantime to convert tem- porarily another building for the purpose. Love films are banned Afghanistan. Cowboy tures are preferred. A silent cinema was open in Kabul during King Am- anullah’s rule, but was de- stroyed by Bacha-I-Sakao, “waterboy of the north,” when the usurper captured the capital. YOUTHFUL AND ENTHUSIAS- TIc MAN AT DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE MAKES READY FOR ENSUING BATTLE By HERBERT PLUMMER (ity Associated Prensa) WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.—As a nation-wide war on crime, pledged to fight to the end to rid the country of kidnapers and racketeers, a youthful and en- thusiastic man at the department of justice is getting ready for battle. He is J. Edgat Hoover, director of the newly created division of investigation. Hoover’s name does not figure as prominently perhaps in the news of this great drive the gov- ernment is planning as do some of the others, Moves of Professor Raymond Moley, President Roosevelt’s spe- cial_imvestigator, are noted. ~At- torney General Cummings’ utter- ances on the subject are made known. But it is upon the shoulders of Hoover that much of the respon- sibility for dealing with the criminal element rests. He and his division will be, so to speak, the executive officers of the high command.
