EXPANSION OF' CURRENCY HAS BORAH SUPPORT Nation Must Act to Avert Chaos and Disaster, Says Senator. BY LYLE C. WILSON United Prew Staff Corraanondant (Coovrlsht. 1932. bv United Pressi WASHINGTON. July 19—Senator William E. Borah (Rep.. Ida.) counseled the country today to turn to currency expansion to avoid "chaos and disaster.” The $1,000,000,000 expansion authorized under the home loan bank bill "is a start toward the honest dollar,” but should be only the beginning, Borah told the United Press In an exclusive interview. He declared there could be "much further” expansion without endangering the nation’s monetary system. As William Jennings Bryan in 1896 campaigned for free coinage of silver to increase the amount of money in circulation, so Borah, leader of the western progressives, now argues for the same goal through currency expansion. He said: "There is nothing ahead of this country but chaos and disaster unless we boldly undertake to bring prices back to what they were when a substantial portion of our currency debts were obligated and stabilized them there. We will say back to the level of 1926. “We never can pay out under the present program and under present conditions. It is possible to stabilize prices by means of a proper use of money. I am of the opinion that before we return in the autumn. there will be general realization that there must be a pronounced expansion of the currency. "The definition of an honest dollar is merely a dollar which can be purchased by the same quantity of commodities today as upon some agreed previous date. “An honest is a stable dollar. It is a dollar which, when nominated in a contract, does not accentuate the value of that contract by the mere lapse of time.” NEWSPAPER ‘SUNDAY EXPERIMENT’ SUCCESS Oklahoma News Eclipses State’s Leading Journal In Advertising. By United Pres* OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla., July 19-—The Oklahoma News’ "econocy Sunday newspaper experiment” was bailed as “certain of success” by Editor Carl C. Magee today. The initial issue of the paper, published Sunday to supplant the Regular Saturday edition, con- i tained almost twice as much ad- j vertising as was carried by the : Sunday Oklahoman, the state’s ■ leading newspaper, which was es- ; tablished before statehood. The News showed a net city delivery circulation gain of more than lo per cent, obtained in five days after the change from Saturday to Sunday. The most suprising gains claimed by the News, a Scripps-Howard afternoon newspaper, were made in local display and classified advertising. Calles, Wife Return to Mexico By United Preen MEXICO CITY.

LYRIC BILL RUNS TO MEDIOCRE CLASS Frank Libuse Is An Eccentric Comedian Who Makes a Joke of a Piano and Two Assistants on Stage. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN AFTER seeing the Lyric bill this week I was of the opinion that the vaudeville part of the show was very much of this and very little of that. Meaning that on the whole it is not a very sensational bill with two acts standing out from the others. The best act from a talent standpoint is the human balancing work of the man in the team of Chappelle and Carleton. The man does some wonderful balancing of a woman standing upright on his hands. He even rolls up a flight of stairs in this position. This act has real merit, although It does close the show. Frank Libuse is an eccentric pianist who

pulls comedy out of a baby grand piano and uses a man and woman assistant for his comedy foils. While I was present four or five small children w’ere on the front

row laughing at everything Libuse did. And Libuse time and time again made it plain that he loved children because he signaled them out for special attention. Even actors are human, you know. The comedy of Krugel and Robles is very crude, one of the men playing a souse. But when

CRAWFORD TAKES CUT Milton Representative Waives His Rights to House Salary. A "lost sheep astray from the fold,” Representative Earl Crawford Dem.), Milton, Monday voluntarily accepted a pay cut for his services during the special session of the legislature. In a letter to State Auditor Floyd E. Williamson, the Milton banker notified he is waiving his constitutional rights and will accept $8 instead of $lO a day during the session. # "And I’m not looking for publicity,” he stated when questioned by reporters. The house voted down a general salary slash. The President of the United States does not have the constitutional power to pardon a prisoner of state.

Jean and Joe need more showmanship, more ease and understanding of the footlights. I understand they come from radio. The vaudeville stage is entirely different from the radio studio. Even different material is needed. The Six Saxonettes go in for ini strumental harmony. Far from new or sensational but pleasing. Johnny Dove and company open the show.

SCIENCE FIGHTS DARK ARTS IN MURDER HUNT Strange Seance Ordered, to Reveal Clews in Death of Chicago Grocer. By United Preen CHICAGO, July 19.—The weapons of science were pitted today against medieval superstition in an j effort by police to pierce the mystery of the slaying of George Carl, 44, a grocer. Seventy-two hours before Carl was shot to death in his little grocery store, his wife visited a soothsayer, who predicted from the reading of three cards that Carl was doomed. Unable to find a clew in the strange slaying, police today planned to re-enact the scene in the darkened parlor of Mrs. Susie Ballow, amateur seeress who foretold Carl’s death. In the room as the cards of fortune are shuffled again will be Mrs. Carl, her mother, Mrs. Mary Grileo, who urged her to make the first trip to the soothsayer, and Ivan Grilec, Mrs. Carl’s brother, who has been held by police since they w’ere

informed he arranged a $5,000 insurance policy for Carl, providing double indemnity in case of violent death. Watching the scene will be detectives. Mrs. Carl, who has assured officers she is convinced of Mrs. Ballow’s ability to read the future, will draw three cards from the pack that predicted her husband s death. Mrs. Ballow will be asked to read from these cards who killed Carl. If the seeress is unable to do this, she will be asked what the future holds for the slain man's widow. It is science and not respect for the power of a fortune teller, police said, which leads them to re-enact the strange seance. Officers believe some hint as to the slayer will be revealed under the emotional stress of the dramatic scene. GIERHART RITES FIXED Funeral Rites to Be Held at Anderson Home by F. & A. M.
