NEEDY'S BUDGET TO BE FIXED BY COUNTY CHIEFS Study of Situation Is Made at Meeting in C. of C. Today. Study of the poor relief .situation in Marion county was to be continued today at a, meeting in the Chamber of Commerce of more than a score ot county officials, representatives of the Center township trustee’s office, and the civic organization heads, William H. Book, civic affairs director, said this morning the meeting probably will be held at 3:30 p. m Practicability of drastic changes in the poor relief system, including substitution of commissaries for the "ticket” system, were to be discussed. Conferees will include Center township advisory board members, county couneilmcn, heads of welfare organizations, county commissioners, heads of the trustee's office and County Auditor Harry Dunn. The session will pave the way for advisory board members to fix the April poor relief budget. With recommendations of conferees before them, advisory board members will meet sometime this week to study the budget. Study of the relief situation ’as precipitated last week after the county council floated a $380,000 bond issue to pay accrued poor relief debts. Threats of a 25-cent boost in the county tax rate, because of the relief burden, were aired at the council meeting and at later sessions in ihe trustee's office. As first step toward lowering expenses, advisory board members and Mrs. Hanna Noone. Center township trustee, cut the price of coal from $5.50 to $4.50.

LONG LEGS HELPED MAKE HER FAMOUS The Figure of Charlotte Greenwood Is Worth Its Weight In Gold to This Awkward Comedienne, f I HAFLOTTE GREENWOOD is an actress who took a, long and lanky ' J form - and so capitalized on it that she became one of the world's greatest comediennes The elongated laughmaker will be seen at the Palace starting Saturday, with Buster Keaton in his latest Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture, Parlor, Bedioom and Bath She wall have the role she made famous on the stage. Miss Greenwood first won note as a vaudeville actress, in a skat in which she kicked a foot or so above her head, did a scissor-likc evolution that, brought, forth howls and sang a song that closed with—“And I maintain that I retain (Ha Ha)

—my girlish laughter!” This lpd to musical comedy, so when “So Long Letty” was produced, she became the “Letty” and won international fame. “Linger Longer Letty “ “The Tik Tok Man of Oz” and then New York revues claimed much of her time. She came to the screen in the silent day to appear in “Baby Mine,” and returned to the talkies in “So Long Letty'’ and now in the Keaton picture. The new' comedy is an hilarious story of a young man who is advertised as a gay Lothario, thereby getting himself into a million troubles with women and a jealous husband. A large cast appears, directed by Edward Sedgwick, noted for his success with “Dough Boys,” “Free and Easy” and other Keaton hits. Reginald Denny plays tl>e romantic male lead and other prominent roles are filled by Cliff Edwards, Dorothy Christy. Joan Peers, Sally Eilers, Natalie Moorhead, Edw'avd Bronhv, Walter Merrill and Sidney Bracy, Among the hilarious episodes are the chase in the fashionable hotel when the jealous husband “shoots up” the place, the wreck of Keaton and Miss Peers when their tiny roadster tries to heat a locomotive and the ludicrous attempts of Keaton to hide the beannole-like body of Miss Greenwood when the latter becomes unconscious in a hotel bedroom and the house detective comes prowling around. A series of romances runs through the comedy, ending in a double wedding with Keaton and Miss Christy and Denny and Miss Fillers the participants.

HUMAN LIFE IS CHEAP ITEM IN SOVIET DEFORM Bolsheviks Do Not Reckon Cost in s*Year Plan's Success. BY EUGENE LYONS United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, March 25.—0n its agrarian side, the initial years of the Soviet Russian five-year plan have given results bigger than the most optimistic supporter of the Kremlin policies has envisaged. When the period began, the Soviet Union was importing breadnow it is exporting it. So little did the authors of the five-year plan dream of collectivizing the peasantry quickly that they set the modest figure of 52,030,000 acres as the goal for the area planted by collectives at the end of the five-year term. Knowing the stubborn resistance of the peasant to socialistic methods, many doubted whether this

ft SALEH

acreage could be reached in five years. But in the second year, this goal was more than doubled, with a collectivized sowed area of 108,000.000 acres. In human terms, this means that about one-fourth of all the peasant families have merged their individual farms into collectives. The state-owned farms, immense enterprises a few of which are without precedent anywhere in the world, accounted for another 12,030,000 acres. The government received fully half its grain for feeding its people, building up a reserve and exporting from the “socialized sector," although it had planned to draw--43 per cent of its total collections from this source only in 1933. The price at which this inordinate victory for Socialist economy was wrested from the peasantry, is another story. It amounted to the deliberate stimulation of a civil war—of a class war to the finish against millions of kulaks (prosperous peasants), which still is under way. But in accounting for their gains, the Bolsheviks do not reckon costs of that type. Human life is the cheapest commodity in Russia.
