IANGLED POLITICAL SITUATION

Fight of Gifford Pinchot Attracts Nation Wide Attention l BY J. BART CAMPBELL) STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. H. SERVICE HARRISBURG. Pa.. May 15. To what extent the soldiers' bonus issue may affect the chances of United Stater Senator George Wharton Feppsr being: returned to his seat is one ol the undetermined elements of the tangled political situation in Pennsylvania which is stirring: up almost as much controversy as the fight of Gifford Pinchot to capture the Republican Gubernatorial nomInaiion in the state primary tomort cw. Pepper's avoeJ opposition to the SclSifr's Ivrnas is being used against him by Congressman William J. Burke, of Pittsburg, who is making i frank appeal for the votes of Penn yjlvania's ex-service men as a rePUjM'.'.m candidate for the United States senate. Burke is also stressing the vote Pepper cast to help prevent the unrrating of Senator Newberry of Michigan, and, as an ex-railroad worker and union man, is bidding fcr the labor vote, while seeking at the same time to turn it against Pepper by charging him with being the "representative of "big business' and of Wall street." Pepper is standing on the support he has given the policies of the Harding administration jsince his appointment as the successor of the iate Senator Boies Penrose. The labor vote Is one that Pinchot and Attorney General George E. Alter, his opponent for the Governorship in the bitter Republican factional fight for control of the next state administration, are seeking to win in tomorrow's primary. Mrs. Barcley H. Warburton, daugh ter of John Wanamaker and Vice Chairman of the Republican state committee, who is among Pennsylvania women working for Pinchot, sent out a final appeal for feminine votes for him. The Women's organizations formed during the world war were employed to have have boen re-formed in many instances for the express purpose of getting rut women, voter The result of the participation of the Pennsylvania women in a state wide primary for the first time would be far more helpful to Pinchot than his opponents anticipated, Pinchot spokesmen predicted, and rfeey found fresh encouragement in the strong endorsement given his candidacy by President M. Carey Thomas of Bryn Mawr College, Penn sylvanla's famous institution for the women. DOROTHY GISH IN A SERIOUS FILM ROLE For the first time In years Miss Dorothy Gtsh, one of the most popular movie stars and comediennes, is playing a serious role with plenty of heart interest and emotional feeling. In D. W. Griffith's motion picture Pic, "Orphans of the Storm." s United Artists release, now showing at the Parthenon theatre, she has the celebrated part of the blind frif!. Louise, the same that was played for thirty years by Kate Claxton in the stage play 'The Two Orphans.' In Mr. Griffith's elaboration of the story, it is said. Miss Gish is a splen did partner for her sister, Lillian Gish. who assumes the role of the foster sister, Henrlette. Miss Dorothy, not mo long ago, left a life of single blessedness to become the ibride of James Rennie, a well known actor. They are great chums. When Mr. Rennie recently was obliged to go to Los Angeles to take a. part in a picture there was nothing to do but to have a dally telephone talk, transcontinental charges be what they might.

AT THEDeLUXE As the basic theme for "The Child Thou Giv-tfst Me." the First Nation al attraction which started a three day run at the DeLuxe theatre yes terday, John M. Stahl. the director, chose the one sure-fire subject of the American drama heart interest. Careful not to reduce his production to sentimental mush, yet never losing sight of the value of the human note in his story, the director made his picture a well-balanced combination of tense drama and subtle humor that cannot fail to arouse Instant response in the spectator. To say that "The Child Thou Gavest Me" is appealing and soul-stirring is not only taking advantage of overworked phrases, 'but is doing it advisedly and with full Justification. A person who couM sit through this picture without being touched by the plaintive little figure of a boy who lives In a house divided and the situations which naturally arise from this condition is wholly incapable of human penetration or emotion.
