HOPE OF SPOSLS STIRS SOUTH TO ! BATTLE FOR AL Democrat Factions Patch Up Differences to Keep Solid Front. i ' This is the third article in the series by Thomas L. Stokes telling of the political situation in the South as affected by Governor Smith’s nomination. P BY THOMAS L. STOKES, United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1928, by United Press) Democratic political organizations in the South will be tested in the coming presidential campaign to keep their States in line for Governor Smith, but they go into the test eagerly, for the rewards would he satisfying if the New York Governor became President. Leaders there believe Smith has the best chance of any Democratic presidential candidate in recent years because they think there is a chance for him to crash into regular Republican strongholds in the North. By the same token of course, the South must be kept in line and victory, in the last analysis, may depend upon this. Hope for Spoils Political machines are built on self-interest. Politicians of the rank and file who have labored at their small party posts through the lean years since the Wilson administration are hungry for the rewards that would come to them, in jobs and other preferences, if Governor Smith were elected. This will be a motivating influence in the campaign. The more important leaders are thinking of the better jobs, as cabinet officers, bureau chiefs and numerous other positions which carry prestige and influence. To those down the line, they are holding out the lure of Federal court jobs, postmasterships, and other posts of minor importance in the vast Government machine, either at Washingtoh, or in the States. Work to Get Out Vote There is much talk of the probable rewards now as the machines are beginning to function. It usually isn’t necessary to do much hard work for Democratic presidential candidates in the South. But Smith must have the solid South. The loss of one or two States there would offset inroads into regular Republican strongholds he anticipates elsewhere, and would probably mean a Democratic defeat. The task is the more difficult this year, too, because Smith leaders must get out more than the normal regular vote of presidential years. Many Democrats in the South do not vote in presidential elections, because it is not necessary. Their interest stops with local primary fights. The “regular” vote, ' which shows at the polls year in and year out, comprises a large part of the vote that turns out for presidential elections. Pass Olive Branch Because of the prospects of at least a number of actual “bolters” this year and of many stay-at-homes, political leaders must go into fields not hitherto largely cultivated. They will appeal also to the “new vote, the youngsters who have turned 21 since the last presidential election.” State political leaders first are finding they must put their own houses in order. Politics in the South, where there is but one dominant party, is a thing of factions. Extreme* bitterness often flares up between those factions. Influential national leaders in the South are sending out the word that the factions must forget their differences. The olive branch is being passed from hand to hand. Faction differences are being adjusted in many instances. A glaring example of continued hostility, howiever, is in Texas, which is seeing (stormy political days. There, too, 1 though the Smith leaders thus far [have the upper hand.

LASKY TALKS ON THE NEED OF GOOD FILMS Producer Declares His Company Alert to Use of Sound in Photoplays, but Pictures Must Be Good to Look At. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN A recent statement of Jesse L. Lasky of Paramount shows that his company is alert to the use of sound in its fall and winter releases, but “every film shall be a picture which is good to look at.” In his statement Lasky dwells at length on the necessity of every picture being “good to look at.” Lasky announces the names of the players in many of the chief fall releases for Paramount.

The statement coming from Paramount is as follows: Not only new pictures but new ideas and new standards are ready for presentation, according to reports from Hollywood. Pictures with sound this summer have come rushing in with the sweep of a tidal wave. Mech inical development has gone forward in leaps. Producers at the same time have been expanding their conception of the entire picture art to keep pace with new possibilities.

Paramount’s announcement of its schedule for the new season is the largest and most ambitious of its career. Os the seventy features which the company is to release, one-third, at least are to have sound a c c o mpaniment, and some also are to be in natural colors. “While alert to use sound to its

fullest capacity, we nevertheless insist as in the past that every film shall be a picture which is good to look at,” said Jesse L. Lasky, first vice president in charge of production of the Paramount Famous Lasky Corporation. “Better pictures for everybody, both in the sound-equipped and the silent theaters, will result immediately from these new devices. I am not being too optimistic when'l say that the new season will see standards conspicuously higher than ever before. It will be as apparent in the remote theater as in the downtown de luxe house. “The greater the mechanical possibilities, the more will be demanded in the way of story, acting and directing. The idea behind the picture must live up to the resources of the camera. This will be most perfectly represented when the picture is shown with its synchronized sound accompaniment. But in theaters where it is shown in silence, it likewise will be a superior production. “In making the new season’s pictures with sound effects, this company is not for a moment losingsight of the thousands of theaters all over the land which have not yet installed sound equipment. They are to be cared for more effectively than ever before.” Even as the picture producers insist that “the picture’s the thing” and set about making greater pictures in appeal to the eye, they respond to the dazzling novelty of sound. The lure of the new device has fascinated the industry, and its effect is expected to prove revolutionary. Most of the Broadway theaters are in line to receive sound equipment. It is estimated that by Jan. 1 more than 1,000 theaters in the United States will be able to exhibit sound pictures. Paramount has reopened its Long Island

studio and equipped its Hollywood plant for a double-barreled attack in sound. Most of the films upon which the producers place their chief reliance for the season will be available with sound, according to the schedule. With Paramount, for example, all four of the big specials which lead the program have synchronized effects. This quartet consists of “Wings”; Erich von Stroheim’s "The Wedding March,” the eagerly awaited spectacle of Imperial Vienna, with the great Corpus Christiday pageant in full colors: the Ernst Lubitsch production, “The Patriot,” starring Emil Jannings, and the film version of Anne Nichols’ “Abie’s Irish Rose,” now fitted with music and synchronized effects. “Burlesque” one of the outstanding stage triumphs of the past season, is scheduled for film production. There will be also "The Letter” in which Katherine Cornell starred, and “Interference,” with Evelyn Brent in the featured role. The best-selling mystery novel, “The Canary Murder Case,” is being brought to the screen with William Powell starred in the detective hero role. Anew air spectacle, “Dirigible,” will deal with mammoth ships of the “Los Angeles” type. Romance will take on such various forms as “The First Kids,” starring Fay Wray and Gary Cooper; “Just Married,” with Ruth Taylor and James Hall, and “The FleVs

INDIANA’S CORN CROP OUTLOOK BETTERIN JULY Probable Yield Gain of 17,000,000 Bushels Forecast. Bu Tima Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., Aug. 15.—The most important change in Indiana crop prospects for July is the increase of 17,000,000 bushels in the probable production of corn. While the condition of corn is above the ten-year average it is nearly the average of the past thirty-seven years. The forecast is 3 per cent above the average production of the past ten years according to the monthly crop report by M. M. Justin of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station and Department of Agriculture. Through July rainfall over much of the State was less than usual, moisture remaining from the heavy rains of June carried the crop along well as there were no excessively high temperatures, and the weather stations recording humidity show a higher relative percentage than

WEAKNESS SPELLS LASTED FOR WEEKS So Weak, Without Enough Energy to Dress Herself, This Lady Improved Rapidly After Taking Cardui. “I was so weak,” says Mrs. Josephine Cockcroft, of Baldock, S. C., “that I was not able to do anything. I would lie on the bed, days at a time, without energy enough to dress myself. Some days I would think I was able to do a little of my housework, but in a little while I would give out completely. “At certain times, I suffered dreadfully with pains in my back and sides. My head would hurt—felt like it would split open. “Spells of weakness would last for weeks. “I read of Cardui. Other women wrote of how it had helped them, so I hoped it would do me some good. I sent for a bottle and began taking it regularly. “At last I began to feel much better. Then I improved rapidly. For the last year I have been in better health than I ever have been before, and I have hardly taken any medicine at all. “I give the credit to Cardui, for after I had given It a thorough trial, I got well.” Cardui Is a mild, medicinal compound of purely vegetable ingredients.

The improvement in oats prospects of 9,000,000 bushels while not as important as corn was more interesting from one standpoint. The oats crop this year, due to a large acreage, is the largest in the history of the State by 10,000,000 bushels. Yields are exceptionally good also in the southern part of the State and are above average in other districts. Abundant moisture and temperatures lower than normal in the final stages of filling were he'.pful to oats. The winter wheat has not threshed out quite as well as ex-

—Photo by Northland Studio—hundreds of people in this city are now using it regularly as a tonic to keep their inner-systems toned up all the time. “The popularity Konjola has attained in Indianapolis is due entirely to the fact that this medicine does what is claimed for it and in most cases it gives the sufferer permanent reliei,” stated the Konjola Man yesterday at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, where crowds of men and women are calling daily to hear his personal explanation of this celebrated compound. “I am a man of 53 years and know a good thing when I see it. I had faith in Konjola from the very first, even though I had tried many other similar preparations without any results whatever,” writes Mr. W. H. Fisher. 3429 Graceland avenue, this city, in his public indorsement about Konjola. Mr. Fisher is widely known through this city as a first-class carpenter and enjoys a fine business. “I was bothered with rheumatism for a long time and the pains settled in all of my joints. The muscles in my legs and arms were so stiff and sore that I could hardly get around and this handicapped me very much in my work. The gnawing pains around my knees were terrible. They even kept me awake at night. This rheumatism affected my health in general and in spite of all the remedies I had tried, my condition was getting worse from time to time. "Konjola appealed to me when I heard it was made of 22 different roots and herbs and after making a few inquiries. I was convinced that it was really a medicine of merit. My faith in it grew right from the start and each bottle brought me closer to new health and energy. Altogether, I have taken three bottles of Konjola and I can truthfully say this medicine has helped more than anything I have ever taken. Konjola is truly a great medicine and I am indorsing it in order to help others who are still suffering and need the encouragement of someone they know.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he ia daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold in every Hook drug store In this section and by all the leading druggists throughout this vicinity.—Advertisement,
