COOLIDGE AGREES T0 FDERAL A Will Open Treasury to Aid| Flood Sufierers Rapid City, S. D, July 23.—P— The federal treasury will be open- ed by President Coolidge for funds | to repair the broken dikes of the | Mississippi river, but he has reach- | ed no decision on another recom-i mendation of Secretary Hoover to | have the government help meet in- terest and amortization charges on levee bonds in the devastated area. Likewise, it was reiterated today at the executive office that the presi- dent had reached no-conclusion on the question of convening congress | in special session a month or six | weeks ahead of the regular meet- | ing in De¢ mber to consider flood | relief and control measures. | Smoot Sees Session | Senator Smoot, Republican, Utah, chairman of the senate finance com- mittee, who is a guest at the sum- | mer White House, repeated today his belief that a special session | would be called. He also announced | that he would fight to have the| prospective tax reduction made to apply on incomes of this calendar vear on which taxes would be paid starting next March 15. The president is leaving the for- mulation of the tax program largely in the hands of the house ways and means and of the treasury. There are indications that the administra- tion will support the move of Sena- tor Smoot for the immediate tax cut. Pendng a more detailed report from the army engineers on the Mississippl flood situation, Mr. Cool- idge ls withholding any plan for financing this work. Offhand, he | questions whether the federal gov- ernment can meet the interest and amortization charges on local bonds, such as the levee bonds, but he s holding an open mind on this sug- gestion of the secretary. Crop Reports Favorable An optimistic report on crop con- ditions in the Middle west was | brought to President Coolidge to- day by Harry E. Byram, president of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad. He said he had “never scen anything like” the con- ditions of small grains and corn and | felt assured that they would go for- | ward to a bumper harvest == | Palace Will Feature | “Heart of the Yukon” | Plot and counterplot run riot in | “The Heart of the Yukon” tho| Pathe picture which plays tomorrow | at the Palace theater. But in spits | of the many forces which clash to | this fine drama of the Alaska of gold rush days, there is no point in the story where the plot is ob- | scured by too much interplay of | dramatic incidents. Throughout the e, the story is told in a vivid, | and straightforward manne which adds to the interest. | In brief, the theme concerns the | adventures of a girl who goes out to seck her father whom she has never n.

THOUSANDS MOURN AT BIER OF DEAD RUMANIAN RULER (Contined from First Page) self,” the message read. ‘Nothing had indicated to me or made me suspect the end would come so soon, At least our father had the con- him when he died. In my absence, which enhances the sorrow which tears my heart, I beg of you to vlace white flowers beside him, this symbol that the heart which al- ways loved and respected him, still beats for him.” Carol continues in strict seclusion To the foreign editor of the Matin, however, he is quoted as having said: Expresses Sorrow “We meet today under excep- tionally bad circumstances. The death of my father, to whom I was bound by deep affection, is a terrible blow to me. My thoughts turn ceaselessly towards my country, and above all, to that capital where all our people are about to render well deserved homage to a great sov- ereign who made of it a united na- tion. “You readily understand it is im- possible for me at such a time to make a statement for publication. The declaration published this morn- ing expresses the sentiments which As for myself, I.am overwhelmed by sorrow. It is far from my thoughts to make under the present circum- stances any manifestation which might disturb the composure which should mark the royal obsequies.” Visits By Mme. Lupescu There are few callers at the dark- ened residence, but Mme. Magda Lupescu, who came with him to France when he renounced his rights to the throme, is a frequent caller. His friends regard her in- fluence, so far as the succession to the throne is concerned, as unfor- tunate, but they agree that he has been greatly helped by her moral support. Nevertheless, former friends and supporters describe him as suffering from a general paralysis of will power and ambition since his fath- er's death. One prominent Ruman- ian, who was ready six months ago to pledge a large sum to Carol's o announced that he now has abandoned him, Another Rumanian said that Carol “will never be king of Rumania by remaining shut up in the villa; he must gamble with popularity, cyen with his own life." Prominent Rumanians referring to Queen Ma while she now is only a dowager queen, she wields more power in Rumania at present than during her husband’s reign. They aver that Prince Nicholas, her son, one of the regents, is completely dominated by her: that Patriarch Miron Cristea, another member of the regency, has been a devoted friend for many in her judgment. As for the third member of the regency, Supreme Court Jus- tice Buzdugan, there has been not ing to indicate his attitude. One thing of which Rumanian quarters here are certain i3 that Premicr Bratiano, although a great friend of the dowager queen, is an avowed political enemy of Carol use, in Paris, e, said that “‘Fizhting Love” at The Lyceum Sunday | “Fighting Low starring Jetta Goudal, is a romantic story of love, pasison, self-sarcrifice, shifting from noble palaces of Italy, to the hot pitiless sandy wastes of the African desert, with the stellar male roles handled by Victor Varconi and Hen- ry Ik Whithall The story portrays the struggles | of two lovers to ferget their loves; the marriage of a young and heauti- ful girl to an aged soldier that she might escape wedding a scheming scion of nobility.
