SLATES NAMED BY RETAILERS' ASSOCIATION Organization Seeking Repeal of Gross Income Tax Levy. Slates indorsing both Republican and Democratic legislative candidates have been prepared by the Marion county division of the Associated Retailers of Indiana, which is seeking repeal of the gross income tax law. In connection with the association’s intensive pre-primary battle to nominate legislative candidates opposed to the gross income tax law, copies of the slate have been distributed to about 59.000 employers and employes in the county. Workers will be assigned to the polls, also, it was reported. The slates, as announced, were: .Democrats —State senator, Joseph F. O'Mahoney; representatives, Fred E. Barrett, Frank L Bridges, Bernard Cohen, Roger P. Dunn. Frank Leo Martino, Harry H. Miller, Albert Sahm, Jesse Sanford. Richard G. Stewart, Carl E. Wood and Frank W. Young; joint representative, Harry Hill. Republicans Indorsed Republican state senator, Godfrey D. Yaeger; representatives, Joseph C. Buchanan, William Harold Caldwell, Walter S. Glass, Thomas E. Grinslade, Laurens L. Henderson, Bayard C. Marsh, Walter Joshua Mercer, Frank J. Noll, H. Walter Schaefer. Frank C. Turrell and William E. Van Talge; joint representative, Charles R. Fitzpatrick. Candidates indorsed are pledged to a comprehensive tax program involving reduction of public costs, it was announced by R. A. Graham, Marion county division president. A temporary halt in the rapidly mounting tax burden was enacted, forcing property taxes down $35,000,000 in the state. Then, it was pointed out, the 1933 legislature destroyed most of the effect of the $1.50 tax law by providing an emergency clause, and enacting such new laws as the gross income, excise and intangible tax laws, tending to restore the tax burden to its previous heights. The statement asserts hidden taxes constantly are being increased. Individual or collective protests appear useless, the association asserted, adding that enactment of laws to force retrenchment in public spending appear to be the only solution. Program Is Advocated Program advocated by the association includes: Retaining the present, or a reduced, gasoline tax. strictly for street and road purposes. A $1.50 maximum levy on city property and $1 on farm land. The only exception favored is to pay principal and interest on present public debt, or where a sizable majority of voters approve an increase. Continuing the moratorium on new bond issues. Repealing all laws permitting collection of hidden taxes, or collection of huge amounts except for specific purposes. Make tax assessments equal anl open. Repeal of the gross income tax. Substitution, if *_operty taxes are cut, of a nominal sales tax, to be collected with the knowledge of the taxpayer, and used exclusively for the schools.

— The Theatrical World Hollywood Presents Its Cure for the Depression in ‘Stand Up and Cheer’ BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

HOLLYWOOD has gone noble in “Stand Up and Cheer," and tackles the serious problem of trying to cure the depression. The Hollywood cure for the depression is to create anew cabinet position, that of Secretary of Amusement, and Warner Baxter holds the portfolio. It's his job to make the people of

this country stop thinking of their troubles and to start singing and dancing. The first number shows a group of workmen singing “I’m Laughin’,” and the sentiment is that they have nothing to laugh about, and if they can sing, so can we. Baxter, as the new secretary, is the subject of a vicious whisper-

ing attack by enemies of prosperity and even by congress. This movie certainly digs into the national lawmakers, and one senses that Will Rogers, who is said to have suggested the theme, is responsible in some way for this lambasting of the lawmakers. When the picture stays in comedy and satirical channels, it is pretty good entertainment, but when the story becomes serious, the movie ceases to be entertainment. Then it is propaganda and rather tedious stuff at that. The comedy highlight of the movie is when Mitchell and Durant as investigating senators arrive to question Baxter. These two stage a rough and tumble scene in which both senators are standing on their heads most of the time. A charming scene is the duet number of James Dunn and a cute little child, Shirley Temple. This number is called “Baby, Take a Bow." The child is a wonder and the tune is one that you’ll want to whistle. Stepin Fetchit comes in for several good comedy scene. Another song number that has entertaining possibilities is “‘Broadway's Gone Hill-Billy." There’s some clever setire here. There are many others in the cast such as Madge Evans, Sylvia Froos, John Boles, Aunt Jemima, Arthur Byron, Ralph Morgan and Nick Foran. The picture is intended to be cheer-up propaganda. There probably will be a lot of difference of opinion regarding this one. Broadway found it sensational from a box office standpoint. “Stand Up and Cheer" is at the Apollo.

“The Harmonic Rube.” Wood's music is spectacular and in his act he (joes everything but make the mouth organ talk. Wood's act is one of the bright spots in a stage show which tends to become drab and dull at times. The show's title is

“Secrets of the Harem.” Another bright spot is the dancing of Steams and Dean. Their work is clever, clean, and deftly done “The Dance of the Wooden Soldiers” numbers is one of the best bits of comic terpsichore seen here for some time. Freddy Stritt is master of cere-

monies who comes out after each act with a different kind of headpiece. His own little act is a roustabout comedy, the humor of which sometimes falls rather flat. Tiny Virginia Moore sings several rather entertaining songs and her drunk impersonation is top-notch. Jack Gwynn, magician, has a great variety of stunts but he lacks smoothness in performing them. The Mayfield Trio performs in several adagio numbers. Their dancing is fair and their last number, featuring a high leap, is their best. The chorus performs very creditably in their variety of dance routines. In the picture part of the program Joe E. Brown crashes through another of his far-fetched comedies as “A Very Honorable Guy,” the story by Damon Runyan. Browm plays the part of Feet Samuels, a personage well-known along “big shot” row, but whose luck is nearly always on the dowm grade. He is so honorable, however, that when he finds himself faced with meeting a personal note of SSOO, he sells his body to a doctor for SI,OOO, C. C.

WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE—WITHOUT CALOMEL And You’ll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin’ to Go If you (eel rout and sunk and the world looks punk, don’t swallow a lot oI salts, mineral water, oil, laxative randy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweat and buoyant and full o( sunshine. For they can’t do it. They only move tha bowels and a mere movement doesn’t get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile Is not flowing freely, your food doesn’t digest. It just decays in tha bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath Is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your wbols system is poisoned. It takes those good, old CARTER’S LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel “up and up.” They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely. But don’t ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter’s Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter’s Little Liver Pills on the red label.
