CHILDREN TO HAVE DENTAL SERVICE FREE $5,000 Appropriated in Civil City Budget to Aid School Pupils. Fre< dental service will be provided Indianapolis school children through the $5,000 appropriation for twelve dental clinicians in the 1935 civil city budget. Dr Herman G. Morgan, city health officer, announced today. The service was discontinued in 1933 following budget slashes. Between 10 000 and 12.000 children received dental care that year. Dr. Morgan declared. Through the recent provision in the health boards budget, dentists will give free service twice a week at twelve clinics in the city. Dr. Morgan said that the service Is needed especially at this time because of the number of persons out of work. “Deficiencies in family diets often deprive children of calcium and minerals needed for good teeth," the health officer asserted. “If ever there is a time for public dental care it is now.** The greatest trouble comes to children in the sixth year, he said. At this period the first permanent molars are susceptible to decay and should receive treatment. Dr. Morgan contended that decayed teeth are the foundation for maladies that come later in life, such as rheumatism and heart trouble. “If we can prevent more serious maladies from developing, a few dollars spent on children for dental care will save the city hospital j money later on in surgical treatments,” Dr. Morgan said.

— The Theatrical World Robert Montgomery, Miss Patterson Do Fine Work in Comedy, ‘Hide-Out’ —BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

A RACKETEER who never saw* miik except in a bottle, nor ever saw a live chicken of the barnyard variety—that's our hero in "Hide-Out." Since Robert Montgomery is the racket-agent who forced cabaret and night club owners to send their linens to a certain laundry, so the gang could demand its protection cut, the charac-

ter is well cast. M ontgomerv plays the role in a light and high comedy manner when he gets on a farm while hiding out from the coppers. The soil might have done a lot to make a man out of him, but the smile and sincerity of Maureen O'Sullivan probably worked more wonders than anything else.

Montgomery

And when you know that Elizabeth Patterson plays the role of the good housewife, you will realize that thus role also is expertly handled. Here is a fine and sincere actress who knows how to make a character live. ‘’Hide-Out” is a fine date night movie. The story isn't silly and it is good theater of the make-believe type which always is popular on the stage and screen. Some of the comedy in this one has all of the smart touches of “Thin Man.” which was a great hit here. There are some human situations in “Hide-Out” which probably will make you blink a tear or two, but that won’t last long, because you will start laughing again the next second. I see no reason why this picture should not appeal to the entire family. but adults will like it better. Now at Loew’s Palace. a a tt An Object Lesson The sad but true verdict on “The Scarlet Empress,” with Marlene Dietrich as Catherine 11, is that here is a mighty tiresome movie with some of the most stupid direction I have ever witnessed. Miss Dietrich plays the role of , Sophia Frederick, who becomes the

Wide Variation in Relief Expenditures Revealed

Outdoor Relief Ranges Widely in Various Counties, Report Shows. A wide variation in the ratio of relief expenditures in counties and townships was reported today in a study of Indiana public relief by the Indiana state committee on governmental economy. The reports points out that fortytwo years ago the expenditures in Indiana counties for outdoor relief ranged from 4.7 cents in Crawford county to 84.1 cents per capita in Warren county and that in 1933 the comparative ranks remained exactly the same. The report cites that, in a study of 1.016 townships that in 1931 seven townships spent no money for outdoor relief and that one township spent as much as $6.75 per capita. The average cost to taxpayers increased from $179 in 1931 to $2.93 in 1932. Federal aid makes figures later than 1932 incomparable, the report states. The range of expenditures to the number of persons receiving aid from counties was found to be from $2.19 to $21.92 a person relieved in 1921. or a ratio of one to ten. The report concludes with a statement. “So apparent has been the need for changes that within the last two years a number of revisions have been made on an emergency basis, without legal changes and with full knowledge that the present abnormal setup is but a bridge to something else.’’ Eggs Burned in SBI.OOO Fire Rff United Prc*s KANSAS CITY.

sort of the mad Grand Duke Peter. She first appears in a sort of Mae West irnpersonat ion when she gets wise to the way the Russians carry on at court. When she becomes greedy for pow’er, she assumes the cheapest of the street - walker’s brogue and attitude. Here is cheap acting,

Miss Dietrich

and there is no excuse for it. Yes, Miss Dietrich wears marvelous costumes, but often the director allows the effect to be lost before backgrounds which make the actors look like puppets. Miss Dietrich is capable of better things than this, but she has failed utterly in trying to play the role of Catherine. Catherine might have been a lot of things, but she never was cheap mentally. Never have I encountered such cheap conversation on the part of the characters. Even Peter’s mistress is made to refer to Empress Elizabeth iLouise Dresser) as an “old bat.” Another sad report is that such a good actress as Louise Dresser is made to act so cheap and vulgar that a burleques show of fifteen years ago wouldn’t stand for the things she does in this picture. The only saving grace from an acting standpoint is the mad grand duke of Sam jaffe. Here is a horrible character played masterfully. But even Jaffe is capable of greater things. Os course, this picture cost a fortune but it is tiresome and dull. Josef Von Sternberg, in my opinion, has made a mess of this one. Be your own Judge, as usual. Now at the Circle. a tt tt Here Is Howard’s Latest NOW comes Leslie Howard in a triviality called “The Lady Is Willing.” To the average American audience. this piece Is likely to seem a plodding effort at rollicking comedy.

MONROE DOCTRINE IS SCORED BY HOWARD Annulment Urged in Talk at Buenos Aires. By United Prc** BUENOS AIRES. Aug. 27.—Argentine leaders, analyzing a suggestion by Roy W. Howard, chairman of the board of the ScrippsHoward newspapers, that the Monroe doctrine be annulled, found it today significant of a changing American attitude toward South America and a "New Deal” for the western hemisphere. In a speech to 300 guests at the American Club, honoring the American newspaper executives who were passengers on the maiden trip of the Brazilian Clipper, Mr. Howard urged the “debunking’’ of flowery manifestations of good-will among the nations of the two Americas unless these manifestations were carried out in concrete activities. Mr. Howard praised President Roosevelt's foreign policy resulting in withdrawal of United States marines from Nicaragua and Haiti. “But after that,” he said, “one important task remains—to annul the Monroe doctrine. This doctrine was conceived in the highest of ideals and aimed at increasing the understanding among American nations. Actually it has become a barrier to understanding.” NEW PASTORS NAMED FOR 2 CITY CHURCHES Assignments Made at Annual Friends Parley Here. The seventy-seventh annual session of the Western Yearly Meeting of Friends closed yesterday at Plainfield with the assignment of three pastors to Indianapolis churches. The pastors assigned are: First church, Herschell Folger; Second church. Florence and Lewellen Lockwood.

sense of humor, “The Lady Is Willing” probably would be classified as farce.

And therein lies this picture’s most interesting aspect— particularly to those interested in comparisons. This is one of the films made by Mr. Howard while on holiday recently in England. While the story is by Guy Bolton, an American, and the direction by Gilbert Miller, Mr. Miller has

Mr. Howard

chosen the British method for this cinema production, even as his legitimate presentations in New York are always a bit on the English side. But in “The Lady Is Willing” Mr. Miller has permitted overstatement of the obviously comic and too great understatement of the subtly comic —something of w*hich he has seldom, if ever, been guilty of in stage directon. The net result is that there is little to suit the American taste. Mr. Howard, of whom we have come to expect virtually nothing short of perfection either on stage or screen, gives a pleasant performance. Notable among the short subjects is an excerpt from “Pagliacci,” with English liberetto by John Erskine and with Henry Hull pantomiming the role of Canio. Now at the Lyric.

'PALS' TURN ON ALLEGED KILLER OF ‘HANDY MAN' State Smashes at Alibi of Buxom Roadhouse Proprietress. By United Press COOPERSTOWN, N. Y., Aug. 27. —The state smashed away today at the alibi of Mrs. Eva Coo, the “Diamond Lil” of Otsego county, charged with the insurance murder of her handy man, Harry Wright . Having already presented a powerful case against “Little Eva,” Prosecutor Donald H. Grant marshaled witnesses to tear down the alibi he anticipates she will offer in an effort to escape the electric chair. The trial today entered its third | and possibly final week. Mr. Grant expected to present the last of his some seventy odd witnesses byWednesday. The defense then will present its side. Whereupon the jury will settle the future of the buxom roadhouse proprietress. Another of her “pals,” this time Mrs. Edna Hanover, youngest and prettiest of the girls at the roadhouse, will testify against her. Already three women she considered her best friends and her lover have contributed to the evidence the state hopes will result in her execution. Sightseers attracted from an area embracing many hundreds of miles, stormed the tiny courtroom. Over the week-end hundreds climbed Crumhorn mountain to the haunted house where Wright is alleged to have been struck first on the head by a mallet in the hands of “Little Eva,” then run over by a car driven by Mrs. Edna Clift, who will be permitted to plead guilty to seconddegree murder as a reward for her testimony against Mrs. Coo. 3,000 CITY GERMANS ATTEND PARK OUTING Sengs, Band Music, Games Features Colorful Program. More than 3,000 persons attended the annual outing of the Federation of German Societies of Indianapolis in Germania park yesterday.

Clash on Burial Cost By Times Special NEWCASTLE, Aug. 27.—Henry county undertakers apparently have county officials “on the spot” regarding fees for burials of paupers. Increased prices for burials proposed by undertakers brought a threat from officials that they would go outside the county for the service. However, undertakers point out that the cost in all likelihood would be the same, as funeral directors of Indiana in general are operating under a code. Formerly, the price for burial of an adult was SSO, and for a child, S2O. Anew schedule provides for a sliding scale of charges based on sizes of caskets. u it Electricity Mixes By Times Special SHELBYVILLE, Aug. 27.—Radio sets, electric clocks and other devices in five homes were damaged when service wires carrying 110 volts of electricity came in contact with a 2,300-volt line. Damage is estimated at several hundred dollars.
