BADGER STATE’S [CAMPAIGN FUND I PROBE IN MOVE Committee Now at Capital for Continuation of Investigation. JiU United Press WASHINGTON. Jan. 22.—Wisconsin's legislative Investigation of campaign expenditures and methods In that state moved to the national capital today. Having discovered that candidates | within their state showed almost unanimous disregard for the law governing political campaign expenditures, the legislative investigating committee today concerned Itself with the part played by outsiders in Wisconsin politics and its representatives in the national government. Two state senators and three assemblymen comprise the committee which met here Tuesday. The purpose of their sessions is to discover violations of the state's corrupt practices act and to make recommendations for modernizing and strengthening this law. Hearings In Wisconsin Extern f ve hearings in Wisconsin dtsc'osec? not one candidate for state office who had made any attempt to ascertain the amount of money spent on his behalf by local organizations and individuals throughout the state. Few admitted they knew the act required that these sums be counted in the total of expense to which they were limited. Nearly all insisted that such a system Is impractical. The investigation originally was aimed at the campaign of Governor Walter J. Kohler. La Folic tte progressives, whose candidate Kohler defeated In the primary, charged that $200,000 was spent on behalf of the millionaire manufacturer. Kohler Joined In the demand for an Investigation, forcing the progressives to include the last five years in its scope. The broader survey covered campaigns in which the La Follette group repeatedly elected Its candidates to state office and to congress. Committee Personnel An ouster proceeding instituted against the Governor under provisions of this same corrupt practices act Is now' pending in the Wisconsin supreme court.

JANET GAYNOR IS STAR OF ‘CHRISTINA’ I The Four Camerons Will Top the Vaudeville Part of the Bill at The Lyric Starting Saturday. THE magic voice of Janet Gaynor will again be heard on the silver living screen at the Lyric Saturday. “Christina” is the picture in which the little star will appear. Just as Janet has always lived her roles hi such pictures as “Seventh Heaven.” “Street Angel,” “Four Devils” and “Sunny Side Up,” so “her voice with a soul” gives added realism to the wistful little Dutch girl, with the wooden shoes, and wide-swung petticoats. Tristram Tupper wrote the story and its background the Isle of Marken in the Zuyder Zee with all its picturesque cottages, windmills and beautiful tulip fields promises to be an eye treat. Charles Morton and Rudolph i
Schildkraut are principal players in ; the supporting cast. Wiliam K. \ Howard directed the production. A j beautiful symphonic music score j plays the various moods of the pic- j ture, while a haunting theme song j is heard at. intervals. The climatic sequences are with dialog, in which all the players speak their parts. A four-act bill of RKO Vaudeville augments the picture feature. It is styled an all comedy stage show. The Four Camerons, probably the best known famous act in vaudeville, heads the bill. Pop, Mom, Sis and Brother, chips off the same block, hewed from the tree of fun. Then there is an act that is heralded as one of the foremost animal turns on the stage. Duncan’s Collies, real Scotch Collie dogs, performing the most unusual feats ever taught to any canine. Sargent and Cammie are next, presenting a light and interesting j oddity of fun, song and dance called “I Give Up.” Jack Hanely is the fourth specialty number. Jack is an eccentric comedian and juggler who has an act quite out of the ordinary. Dancing in the New Lyric ballroom continues to be the popular thing and will be continued indefinitely.

AMERICA WISE ON IMMIGRATION, ASSERTS LIEBER ! State Conservation Chief, Returned From Europe, Tells Impressions. “Europe, at the present time, Li a crazy-quilt of border lines. Every country, w'ith the possible exception of Russia, is overpopulated and the people burdened to the limit of taxation. Should anything happen
there to break the strain the result will be costly to the United States.” Such was the Impression brought back by Director Richard Lieber of the state conservation department, after several months’ sojourn in Germany, Holland and Italy. Lieber returned this week from a
md
visit with his mother and other relatives in Germany. “Whatever is left of the old Europe is in the United States,” Lieber asserted. “Only in this country can one travel more than a single day unincumbered by boundary lines. Relations Friendly "Difference in language, historical customs and the multiplication of boundary lines all are keeping the Europeans apart. Yet when they do fraternize in public places they all seem to be on exceedingly friendly terms. “The situation, however, is most precarious. “The stock market crash has made I little difference to real prosperity in America and the comparison in widespread wealth, if not greater enjoyment, is striking. “Here by an unusual combination of brains and human energy, applied to natural resources, our continued prosperity is assured. "But why not a United States of Europe? “The idea is not new, but even Napoleon was unable to bring that about. It can come only by the external pressure of absolute necessity. Envied, Distrusted “An ierica is both envied and distrusted by the average European. We stand in the role of rich relation, fawned upon only for the sake of a loan, but really somewhat despised. “Throughout Europe there is a mamiwimiriiß iWMiiwiiiwiiiii i>lllll wMHwwNtr-wrrriinni~irni 1 Don’t Look Old Wrinkle*, ag-e lines, deformed nose, moles, warts, pimples, superfluous hair.

widespread desire for peace. People generally feel that war is bad for every one concerned. The new German regime is socialistic, but far from communistic. The war results, some say, were bad for the aristocracy, but good for the people. “However, there was no grafting under the monarchy, while there is under the socialist regime. “Kaiser William seldom is mentioned and there is no demand for return of monarchy anywhere, unless in the Bavarian hill country. “Everywhere in Europe is evidence of overproduction. Our country is wise to retain immigration bars or we would be swamped with immigrants. “Reforestation is the one thing that the conservationists here might learn from abroad. We scarcely have scratched the soil here. “Russia is the outstanding problem in Europe. It is the country that largely will determine the future. No one could predict what that will be.” ROCKEFELLER FUND IS GIVEN TO FRANCE Paris, as Scientific Research Center of Europe, Is Foreseen. Bu United Press PARIS, Jan. 22.—Paris, as the scientific research center of Europe, is foreseen as a result of the announcement of a Rockefeller donation of $6,000,000 to the faculty of medicine, to be forthcoming if the French government subscribes an equal amount. Prior to the Rockefeller announcement, the faculty of medicine was casting about for larger quarters. The old building on the Rue Ecole De Medicine, a member of the institute said today, only was large enough for the accommodation of 1,000 students. It was intimated the new school will be built out beyond the Sorbonne, on the far edge of the Latin quarter.

forty-seven more than in 1928, police failed to arrest any of those responsible, Curran said. Branding the turning in of false alarms one of the most insidious criminal practices, Currant pointed out that for each call two or more pieces of apparatus speed through city traffics, endangering many lives. Regardless of decrease in the number of fires, loss here in 1929 increased $60,743. Three large fires, at the United States Corrugated Box Company, the John Jordan Grain Elevator and the Central Wall Paper Company, are believed responsible for increased damage. Total loss for the year was $1,326,918.
