Rig- by of David Graham Phillips' pow- erful novel which caused such a furore on its publication some years ago. i It is the story of a man's strug- gte against the designing little of- fice vamp whose voluptuous appeal gradually sweeps him away into the flood which he knows may wreck his entire career and the .appiness of the woman his better self loves. The three principal roles have en- joyed the benefit of being portrayed by Ricardo Cortez, Alma Bennett anc Claire Windsor and George Archainbaud, who directed, can tack up another bunch of superla- tive notices to his credit. The co-feature presents “Shadows of the Night” with Flash the won- der dog; Lawrence Gray and Louise Lorraine.

Administra- tion Will Aid the Farmers. Chicago, Sept. 13 M—W. M. Jar- dine, secretary of agriculture ad- vises farmers to “hold your wheat,” in a statement issued by the repub- lican national committee yesterday in which he expressed belief that & continuance of a republican admin- istration will aid the farmers. Mr. Jardine, who was here en route to Washington after a west- ern trip, saild: “The purchasing power of thirty important agricul- tural commodities was 93 in July this year compared with 69 in 1921, the low point following the World War depression. “There is no sound economic rea- son for depressed wheat prices,” he added. “Farmerg who sell their wheat without regard for the mark- et may have cause to regret it la- ter. Our experience has taught us that large production usually has an unduly depressing influence on prices early in the season, and a subsequent upward corrective tend- ency can generally be expected.” Jardine cited the *“need for effec- tive legislation to enable farmers to prevent price depression due to seasonal surplus through price stabilization.” He said such a plan would receive the support of the re- {publican administration.

FRUSTRATE PLOT AGAINST RIVERA Arrests Foil Plan to Rid Spain o Premier Madrid, S8ept. 13.—UP—Frustra- tion of a plot against the government of Primo di Rivera, who today cele. brated the fifth amniversary of the establishment of his dictatorship, was announced in an official state- ment today. Arrests nipped the plot in the bud. The statement said that the anti- government movement was to have come out into the open tonight with various elements participating. That it appeared the plotters were trying to satisfy their own pride and ambi- tion, Primo De Rivera in a statement to the Associated Press indicated that the military had no part in the plot, ticians, revolutionists and other ele- ments which live and prosper by provoking disorders.” His statement read: “The condition of public order in Spain could not be better in all the country. Plot Formed “It is not certain that delegates to the labor congress, which is being held tranquilly, have been arrested, nor also a single soldier, although it was proved that a plot to produce disorders on September 13 had been made. “There have been some arrests | among politicians, revolutionists and | other elements which live and pros- | per by provoking disorders.” Paris, 8ept. 13 (P—Having crush- ied a widespread plot against the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, the to have the situation well in hand. Some border advices place the num- ber of persons under arrest as high as 2,000. The plotters were stated by travel- ers from Srain to have intended to overthrow the government and ar- rest high officials for immediate trial and prompt deportation. The Bordeaux newspaper La Pe- tite Gironde said the Spanish police claimed liberals, republicans and communists joined in the plot. No high military officers were known to be_involved. The blow to overtirow the gov- ernment was stated to have been prepared for tonight in connection with the fifth anniversary of the es- tablishment of the Spanish dictator- ship. 1t had been set originally for later in the autnmn but the plotters took advantage of the absence of King Alfonso of Spain. Plan Found Out Martinez Anido, minister of in- terior, got wind of the plot early Tuesday. He immediately conferred with police officers and a list of per- son to be arrested was drawn up. The pelice in taxicabs rounded up more than a score of persons in Madrid. Among those arrested was Alexander Lerroux, leader of the liberal republican party. The newspaper said the Rev. Vi- dal Y Veraguer, archbishop of Sar. agossa had becn invited to retire to a convent in order to save himself from going to prison. A late dis- patch from St. Jean De Luz on the | frontier sald that the archbishop had been received in a convent in Tarragona. Advices on the number under ar- rest was conflicting. La Petite Gi- ronde said that Hendaye and Bay- onne heard that there were nearly 2,000 arrests in different parts of Spain. A Madrid dispatch to Le Journal of Paris stated that the number of those arrested would fall far short of the “several thousand" been jailed. asserted that information from sources usually reliable was that there were “numerous arrests” in- cludirs 74 at Bar-clona.
