Bv tented Press NEW YORK, Aug. 11.—The stock market rallied around noon today after going through another period of selling. Trading was quieter than on Saturday. Sales to noon totaled 890.000 shares, against 1308.440 in the corresponding period Saturday. Principal shares led the upturn, which was considered a technical turn by the majority of market observers. Westinghouse rose a point to 139, American Can 2 points to 118%, v *- nadium 2** to 85*6. General Motors % to 44'i, Radio-Keith-Orpheum *4 to 28'-, Briggs Manufacturing to and American and Foreign Power '* to 64U. The rise followed an advance to 2'- from 2 per cent in call money and was carried on despite a setback of more than 2 cents a bushel in wheat at Chicago and a break to new- lows for the season in all cotton months. The bullish element was helped by the rise of 53.000 tons in United States Steel unfilled orders reported after the close on Saturday and news that the drought had been relieved in many sections of the country. Steel production was still trending downward, especially in the Ohio valley district, where Youngstown reported a decrease in operations. Automobile production remained at a low rate, according to Detroit reports.

KROGER HEAO SPEAKS Benefit of Chain Store Cited in Sunday Radio Address. Chain stores perform a most valuable service to the public, C. O. Sherrill, vice-chairman of the Kroger Grocery and Baking Company, said Sunday afternoon in a radio address over KMOX at St. Louis. This service, he said, is done by buying goods from the producer and putting them into the hands of the consumer with but a single markup price. Chain stores, he added, cut out the wholesaler, middleman and retailer of a wasteful system.

cßv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Aug. I.l—Although the steel tonnage report Is probably a trifle better than anticipated, its significance as a business barometer is negligible, coming at a time when curtailment of operations is still in progress. It seems doubtful that the tonnage figures will receive more than passing notice. The current will probably show little, if any. improvement in car loadings. We still have quite a number of second hand quarter earnings reports to come, many of which will likely be disappointing. There is as yet nothing which we can look forward to immediately in the way of constructive developments other than a change for the better in the agricultural situations. Fortunately, the market's position has been strengthened, which we believe precludes the possibility of a major reaction. If the short interest is as large as generally supposed. a sizeable rally could materialize In the near future.

CORN FUTURES CLUSE UP UN STRONG RALLY Wheat Regains Early Losses, but Ends Day Lower Than Saturday. Bu United Press CHICAGO. Aug. 11.—A strong rally during the latter part of the session gave corn a higher close on the Board of Trade today after an erratic day. The market fluctuated widely and rose around 3 cents from the early lows at the last when shorts attempted to cover and found offerings small. Additional bullish private crop reports and a fair decrease in the visible supply were encouraging. The late strength in corn gave wheat a good recovery after a day of weakness, but the market was still sharply lower and sank again at the last, oats following. Liverpool Sells Off At the close wheat wae 2 to 2% cents lower, corn was % to 1 cent higher and oats was Vz to Ts cent lower. Provisions were very weak to lower. Continuing to ease in the latter part of the session, Liverpool closed VA to 1% cents lower. There was no export demand reported over the week-end. Canada and the American northwest continue to lack moisture and the forecast is for cool weather with possible showers. Cash prices were IV 2 cents lower. Receipts were 295 cars. Com Slumps Early Com sagged sharply after an opening bulge on general buying and at mid-session prices were around I' 3 cents off. . Generally pessimistic press comments on the crop situation and the failure of general precipitation over the weekend were encouraging. Heavy profit-taking and evening up for the government report developed and weakened the market. Cash prices were 1 cent lower. Receipts were 274 cars. Oats was rather steady at the start but slumped with the others. Trade broadened and there was an improvement in the demand on the setback. Cash prices were % cent lower. Receipts were 251 cars.

- ----- NAME OF STAR SAVES THIS NEW AIR MOVIE Richard Barthelmess Runs Up Against an Average War Story in ‘The Dawn Patrol’ Now at the Circle. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN IT seems to me that “The Dawn Patrol” must be considered in the light of comparison to “Wings,” “Flight” and other similar movies. We have not had "Hell’s Angels” and probably will not have it here for many more moons and so we will leave that out of the picture just now. It seems to me that “The Dawn Patrol" will get by because Richard Barthelmess, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., and Neil Hamilton are cast as the chief members of a flying squadron in the World war
In the first place, judged just as a story, “The Dawn Patrol” does
not have the emotional action of other stories of the war. There is not a woman in the cast, but “Dawn Patrol” lacks the magnificent emotional punch of “Journey’s End,” with not a woman in the cast. “Patrol” does not have the terrible exposure of the terrible sweep of war. Rather we have the terrible mental
Barthelmess
suffering of three individuals played by Barthelmess, Fairbanks and Hamilton as their friends are shot down by the enemy while doing patrol duty. We have three nice performances, but all officers of the flying squadron strangely seems to develop the same mental and physical characteristics. Not so in “Journey's End.” In oilier words I found that this movie lavtced genuine realism of war although the cast is a good one. Barthelmess while being a hero breaks about every rule of the flying corps and in the end wc have one of those heroic death scenes. I got the impression that all Os the officers higher in command of Barthelmess, Fairbanks and the others were all just dumb tin hats sending young boys to sure death in bad machines. I can safely say that Barthelmess and the others sure did drink a grand war. Never have I seen such unnecssary drinking in a war movie. It was just one bottle after another for about everybody in this air war. Some of the air shots have been splendidly handled. What success this movie has will go to the name of Barthelmess- Now at the Circle. COMEDY Is“maln ISSUE OF NEW OAKIE FILM “The Sap From Syracuse” with a theme that is purely comedy, depends for the most part on that comedy and Jack Oakie to put it
•across. Those of you who like Oakie and have helped him to become a star by rushing to liis pictures, will probably like this one. Here he has plenty of room for all his monkeyshines without any danger of someone stealing them away. The comedy almost entirely is around the character he
I n m
Jack Oakie
portrays, that character’s mistaken identity for a famed engineer. He is funny throughout the picture, but sometimes whether his fault or the director’s is hard to say, he is positively silly. Thank goodness, he is just funny most of the time. Ginger Rogers who plays opposite Oakie in this riot of fun, shows much promise in the movie world. Her daintiness and purely feminine ways reminds one just a little of Sally O’Neill, though she appears more mature and sophisticated than the latter. She speaks her lines well and seems as much at home before the camera, as she did on the stage before her entry into pictures. The story concerns a young man from Syracuse who, coming into ■ some money decides to go abroad. Aboard ship he suddenly finds himself mistaken for a famcfiis engineer traveling incognito, and as we find out in the end the engineer is aboard under an assumed name. Meeting Miss Rogers who is looking for such a person to save her mines, he gets in deep water without having a chance to withdraw. Finally when he does disclose his true self, he is saved in Ginger’s regard by the real engineer also disclosing himself. “The Sap From Syracuse” is about the average Jack Oakie picture, with comedy in a mistaken identity, as the theme. The stage show, with Charlie Davis and his band, plus Publix visiting talent, is called “Carnival of Fun.” About the usual for the exception of three high spots. One being Sammy Lewis and Patti Moore in “Fun on the Steps,” which stopped the show cold at the performance I witnessed. Here are two tap dancers, who know their business. Another is Marietta with her graceful acrobatic dancing. Still another is Jim the bear who knows how to do the 'black bottom and wrestle. Concluding the bill Ed Resener directs an impressive overture, ”11’ Guarany,” and Newsreel. Now showing at the Indiana—(By Connell Turpen.) nan NOT A BLUSH IN A CARLOAD OF SIN Might remark that there is not a blush in 9 carload of sin in “Our Blushing Brides.” Just why the title except for box office purposes is quite beoynd me. Here is one of those awfully hoked up allegedly moral stories
of how the poor working girl suffers whether she goes straight or goes crooked. Joan Cr a w so r and suffers by going straight and poor Anita Page and Dorothy Sebastian suffer terribly by going crookqd. So you see that our three brides suffer, suffe r and suffer. Poor dears, they can’t help it because the guy
% Vx m ® SB?
Joan Crawford
who wrote this story had an exaggerated idea of what makes a good story. And there are laughs in this one that the author never intended. I mean wheh the hero, not
pure at the moment of which I am speaking, springs a trap ladder on poor Joan and the ladder leads to a tree. And guess what is in that tree. My dear, really everything but the kitchen sink—full-grown apartment with bath, telephone, fireplace, radio and everything else. Oh, dear, Hollywood has gone nuts again, meaning a certain director. One minute the story is silly, then straight melodrama with death bed scenes, pure heroine running out for bad boy friend. Oh, well, this is a might poor yarn. Just box office and nothing else. Be your own judge as usual. I have my own very decided idea of “Our Blushing Brides.” It is bad, Now at the Palace. a tt a LOWE IS HIGH CLASS CROOK AGAIN “Good Intentions” is another crook story in a heavy crop of such stories these last few months. This one has the advantage of Edmund Lowe being the dress suit
crook who is killed at the end of the story so the good heroine can have for a husband her boy friend. Said boy friend was about to be given a hot ride by members of the crooked gang presided over by Edmund Lowe. So Lowe saves the life of the boy friend by giving up his own life. And so Lowe
: % '
Edmund Lowe
has done his one good deed for the day. Marguerite Churchill is the rather over acting heroine in this story. “Good Intentions” has some hot scenes such as robbing a bank president of bonds in broad daylight and right in his own bank filled with customers. That scene will give any one a kick. The crook characters in Lowe’s gang in this movie have been well chosen. I can truthfully tell you that I liked “Good Intentions” much better than “Raffles” with Ronald Colman. “Good Intentions” has some tensely and finely acted scenes. Lowe does some fine work. Very smart. I think that “Good Intentions” will give you quite a thrill regardless of the fact that it is another crook story. Now at the Apollo. Other theaters today offer: "With Byrd at the South Pole,” at the Ohio; “Not Damaged,” at the Lyric, and “Sisters,” at the Colonial.

FAT CUPPER'S n DAYS NUMBERED IN PITTSBURGH They'll Be Put on Beat and Be Made to Walk Off Excessive Weight. PITTSBURGH, Aug. 11.— The fat, Jolly corner man —of which almost every police force can boast—soon will be only a tradition in Pittsburgh. Passage of the heavy, round-faced patrolman is presaged by announcement of ihe establishment of one of the most modern clinics in the country to care for the health of police and firemen—and incidentally to see that members of either department do not become obese. Careful check of all employes will be made and “corner men” who show too plainly “that future shadow” will be given a turn at walking a beat. Fat Means Walking Job The same policy will be followed in cases of mounted patrolmen, and any one showing a tendency toward overweight will bo assigned a “walking job.” To minister to the various ailments to which Pittsburgh’s 1,000 policemen or 1.000 firemen may be subject, complete equipment has been installed in the new physiotherapy department. It includes ultraviolet ray lamps, whirlpool baths and other similar apparatus. Two types of ultra-ray lamps are provided—one for checking progress of germicidal activity, the other to be used in “pepping up” police or firemen whose resistance is low. Correct Faulty Postures Another instrument is the articulator, providing massage treatment, which will be used to correct faulty posture or to overcome stiffness of joints. Chief Surgeon Daniel E. Sable established the clinic after conferences with the safety director and the superintendent of police. Sable will be in charge of its operation and will subject the members of both forces to periodic examination. “The men shouldn’t fear this examination,” Sable said. “It isn't something to hurt them. It’s for their own good. They are getting an examination that would cost them a large fee somewhere else.” “If a physical examination reveals that a policeman is overweight, I will prescribe exercises to help him reduce. If a corner man, for instance, is too heavy and fails to reduce after being ordered to exercise, I will recommend that he be put on a beat where he can walk off his weight,” Sable said. “Or if a mounted officer is too heavy and fails to reduce, I will recommend that he be transferred to a beat. The object of these examinations is to put each man in the job for which he is best fitted.” Births Bo.y Guy and Esther Boyd, Methodist hos* P '\Viiliam and Cresccntia Stebl. 2715 Allen.

Aug. 11.— Chancellor Heinrich Bruening’s cabinet participated actively today in the republic’s celebration of the eleventh anniversa,y of the Weimar constitution. thus attempting to stress that the present “financial dictatorship" merely is temporary and "m the interests of democracy.’’ First disorders of the celebration occurred Sunday night when Fascists staged a monarchist demonstration, parading and riding through the streets and removing the Republican flags that had been hung out in observance of the constitution under which Germany officially ceased to be a monarchy. Police temporarily arrested 400 Fascists who were in uniform and leading the demonstration.
