LaFollette Third Party Appears To Be Doomed (UNITED PRESS SERVICW) Chicago, Feb. 21—(Special to Dally Democrat) — The LaFollette third' party movement appeared definitely headed for the scrap heap today fol lowing action of 16 supporting labor unions, including three of the big four brotherhoods in voting to give up the ship. There was only one dissenting vote. The decision of the labor group that "further participation in a third party at this time would be futile coining on the even of the national conference for progressive political action which opens here today. Is regarded as a death thrust at the LaFollette Independent party. 0 CONGRESS TODAY Senate: Debates appeal from chair’s ruling sustaining point of order against Muscle Shoals conference report.

Feb 21. — (United Press) -More of the spirit of Christ and loss of smut in the need of the theater, Fred Stone, famous musical comedy star, who "got religion” about two year;, ago, declared today in an interview with the United Press on the New York revolution against ultra-realistic sex plays. "Why, you can see a much cleaner show today in a burlesque house than on the legitimate stage." the long.lean laugh-maker exclaimed. Seated in bis dressing room in a local theater where he is starring in ‘Stepping Stones,” he told, between puffs at a long, slender sigar, of the need for extracting the cuss words i nil smut from many of the current plays. Stone believes it would be a good business proposition, aside from “lifting the tlicjtre out of the mire.” “There are three clean musical shows here in town that arc ‘turning them away’,’’ he said. "They are drawing bigger houses than any smutty slfow ever got. “I don't think the people want the I 1 cussing shows or the plays in which sex is ladled out with a shovel. "1 don't go to such shows. I did see 'Rain.' but I think it is a pretty fair show outside of the swearing. "The public may laugh at a smutty I show, but it is a shame-faced laugh, I and they are a bit disgusted when | they go away, and promise themselves ' not to go again.” I Adjustments Relieve r Nerve Pressure i / wTrk and O#} Thus ■ —wruW-'i Result S THE CAUSE OF B lle - h CHARLES & CHARLES Chiropractors.
