BOYCOTT'S GRIP CHOKING BRITISH TRADE IN INDIA Mills Close as Millions Refuse to Purchase English Goods. r.llint t th( drat of a Mrin •( article* on India by Webb Miller, Euroean manner f the United Pre*. The*e article* were *ent by mall and are not censored. Miller recently traveled .VOM mile* In India. making an extensive 'urvey of the situation there. BY WEBB MILLER United Pres* Staff Correspondent KARACHI. India, Aug. 18.—In the Tuggle between Indian Nationalists in their fight for freedom and the British government, British trade in India Is being slowly strangled by the boycott. With hundreds of thousands and perhaps millions of Indians refusing to buy British goods. England's trade is suffering progressive parahzation. i Mills are closing, ships arc lying idle, large orders are being canceled, huge stocks are incumbering warehouses, profits are evaporating. Chant Word “Boycott" Meanwhile huge processions of Nationalists dressed in undyed kaddar or rough homespun cotton e loth parade the streets of cities chanting the English word “boycott’* and shouting “Down with British goods." The boycott is the principal and most effective weapon in the first great “revolution" in history to be fought by revolutionists without arms. Mahatma M. K. Gandhi is convinced that the Indian Nationalist movement can not triumph by force of arms. His followers have no arms and almost no means of procuring any appreciable amount of arms. The Hindus, who form the backbone of the Nationalist movement, are by nature an unwarlike people. Centuries of domination by rulers has smothered their military tendencies. Focketbook Vulnerable Gandhi is convinced that next to its military force its pocketbook is the most vulnerable point of an empire. Gandhi's ingenious scheme is beginning to be effective. Progressive paralysis has crept from the hundreds of thousands of squalid villages of the Ganges val- j ley and the immense central plain i of India, from the teething indus- j trial centers of Bombay and Cal- : cutta. to the nerve center of British industrialism to Lancashire. In Lancashire cotton mills are ! closing by scores, throwing their employes upon the “dole." Commercial organizations are protesting to the government. Lancashire's prosperity depends upon Indian trade. Takes Third of Cotton Normally India takes one-third of the cotton output of Lancashire. But j it is not taking it now. The boycott is concentrated upon '-otton goods, which constitute the bulk of India's imports. • Tens of millions of Indians exist with almost no articles made outside their own hut or village. But they have to buy an occasional “dhotie" or cotton loin-cloth, which is the only article of clothing of millions. The women folk have to wear “saris” and flow ing robes. Thus India, with 320.000.000 population, is the greatest market for cotton goods in the world writh the possible exception of China. Asa result of the boycott American and other foreign goods are invading India more than ever before. To Be Continued) CIVIC PRIDE LEADS TO JAIL. HOSPITAL _ C ensus Boasts End in Broken Nose.

I see by the papers," said Eulrich to Baird, “that Oak Park's population is 63,819, while Evanston's is only 61.766." Oh. yes," answered Baird, Eilrich's host: “but did you notice Evanston is growing much faster than Oak Park." The battle that followed ended with Eulrich in a hospital, nursing a broken ncse, and Baird in the police station. Thorne was arrested on charges of being a bootlegger, who supplied the liquor for the party. MORMONS HOLD SESSION Encamp About Site of Historic Chape! Built by Founder. S'* United Press KIRTLAND. 0..

A Cinderella of the Talkies; She Meets Prince Charming

Thi* I* the flr*t *f three *torle about the ClndereUa-Uke *ncee* of France* Dee In the talkie*. Le** than a Tear a*o *he was an "extra rirl” during eollere racation. Now he I* a star. BY DAN THOMAS NEA Serrlee Writer Hollywood, cal., Aug. is Once upon a time fairy godmothers used crystal slippers when they wanted to choose their favorite Cinderei>s. Now they give a movie test instead. And so this is a true Cinderella story from real life. A cinema star needed a leading lady. He knew the type that he wanted, but nobody else did. So he started to look around. One day he walked into the case on the Paramount lot. Frances Dee, an extra girl, was eating a sandwich and thinking about the weather. She glanced up and saw' Maurice Chevalier coming toward her. Naturally her heart missed a beat and thumped a little louder. Maurice Chevalier was one of the adored of the screen's adored! His kisses, his eyes, h*s acting. . . . > The handsome French star, who has been such a success in American films, kept coming closer and pretty soon it dawned on Frances that he was going to speak to her. She put the sandwich down and swalloked. Since she had been in the movie world for only six months, she still had the satisfaction of thrilling now and then. a a a MAURICE CHEVALIER did speak to Frances Dee. If he had been doing a version of the first Cinderella story he would have pulled a glass slipper from his pocket, placed it on Frances’ foot, and informed the rest of the sandwicheating maidens in the case that he had found the girl he wanted. As it was he gave her something much better than a slipper . . . an opportunity to be his leading lady in his new picture, “The Little Case." ‘ Come and rehearse with me this afternoon,” Chevalier suggested. Frances smiled and said she would. That test showed the French star that he had found the girl whom he needed for his leading lady. So Frances Dee. pretty college girl with only a few months’ movie experience, played a role that lots of actresses in Hollywood w r ould like to have. The most popular star on the silver screen made “screen love” : to her! And he chose her for the j part! 000 IN addition she has a long-term j contract with Paramount and a j salary that would make life worth j while even if she couldn't play with j Maurice! More than that, her work ; opposite Chevalier w r as so excellent j that this young lady has been selected for the feminine lead for the next production of Buddy Rogers. About six months ago we met Frances working as an extra on the Fox lot and at that time predicted a brilliant future for her. It was a perfectly safe prediction, too. Any girl with her ambition, ability, beauty, personality and willingness to work couldn't possibly be a failure. 000 FRANCES always had liked to act. but she didn't know anything about motion pictures until a short time ago. Asa girl, she thought she wanted to be a star of the stage. A friend of hers told her that Fox was getting ready to shoot a college picture. Frances was a college girl. For two years she had been a co-ed on the University of Chicago campus. Avery popular co-ed, too. She decided that she could put the college spirit into the college play and went over to the lot. But when she arrived she discovered that none of the other girls knew r any college yells. They weren’t claiming sorority sisters from here, there and everywhere by the Greek emblems on their dresses. College just was another “set." Most of the movie college girls never had been to high school. st m a FRANCES received a small part in the play, “Words and Music.” She wanted to be in the play so badly that she just knew she would be placed in the cast. Ever since she was. a child, Frances had the habit of getting what she wanted, and she did not seem to be boasting when she said so. She had wanted to be vice-presi-dent of her class in high school and she received the highest number of votes. She wanted to play the lead in the senior play and it came her war. She wanted to appear in class shows at the Univereity of Chicago. And she-did. She wants to be a star in her ow-n right some ciay, through her own ability. Her ’*never-say-die” attitude already has carried her far toward outstanding success. 000 ”T AM sort of a fatalist, inasA much as I believe that everything which happens to us is for

I had just such an experience right here in pictures only a short time ago. • The day after Paramount %igned me to a six weeks’ contract to play a bit in ‘Follow Thru,’ I was offered a good part in a picture at Fox.

Gardens Can Fill Family Larder, Agriculture Bureau Says. Drought-stricken Indiana residents w'ere advised today to plant late vegetables gardens to help fill the family larder, in a statement from the department of agriculture bureau here. In areas as far north as this state gardeners may grow turnips, spinach, late lettuce and late snap j beans, according to horticulturists.! “Farmers and town residents of Indiana should take advantage of the slight rainfall we have had and plant late vegetables, especially radishes, turnips and lettuce,” J. E. Dickerson, marketing specialist, department of agriculture, announced here today. Turnips would improve the best product if the grower w r ants something to sell, Dickerson said. With possibility of ths usual September rainfall, a garden planted now and germinated with only a small amount of sprinkling between the row's, has a fair chance of making good. When the soil is dry, covering the seed with fine earth is urged as an aid to germination. In some cases it will pay to fertilize liberally, when rains arrive, to hasten the crop. A survey by Dickerson indicates, he said, that, due to an increased acreage, there will be a normal yield of tomatoes, onions and beets in Indiana this year despite ravages of the drought. FUNERAL RITES TODAY Services at Parent’s Home for Victim of Crash Injuries. Funeral services for Benjamin F.

ROOSEVELT IS FACING TEST IN GRAFTINQUIRY Tammany Hall Destined to Be Major Issue in Governor Campaign. B United Press NEW YORK. Aug. 18.—Tammany Hall appears destined, as in the last presidential election, to become a major issue in the coming gubernatorial contest in New York, with cries of graft and corruption being shouted bitterly by foes of the historic wigwam. On its outcome may hinge the political fortunes of one of the most prominent Democratic figures in the nation. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The Governor has requested complete record of the Judge Ewald case, most prominent of a dozen ■ involving officials of the James J. Walker administration and Tam- ! many hall leaders. If he decides evidence is valid against the former magistrate, ac- ; cused of paying $12,000 for his place I on the bench, he likely will yield i to Republican demands for a nonI partisan state investigation of New i York City politics. The Governor's position is delicate.
