"While retail coal dealers were being urged to combat the special food and fuel commission by E. E. Heller, president of the Indiana Coal Merchants' association, in opening its fourth annual
convention at Indianapolis, yesterday afternoon. Jesse E. Eschbach. chair
man of the commission in Question, was issuing a formal call to coal operators for a meeting Sept. 29 to discuss regulation of fuel prices. The hearing will be public and will be held In the statehouse for the purpose of obtaining Information that will aid In price fixing by the commlssion. Notice was sent to approximately 200 Indiana operators, as follows:
"You are hereby notified that the tpecial coal and food commission of Indiana will, on .Wednesday, Sept. 29, 1920, at 9 o'clock a. m., at the office of said commission, Room 332 in the Statehouse, in the city of Indianapolis, begin a hearing for the purpose of regulating and fixing the maximum price at which all coal moving in Intrastate commerce In the state of Indiana shall be sold by jobbers and wholesale dealers. "At such hearing full opportunity will be given for all persons interested to be heard, to aduce evidence and to be represented by counsel, and the hearing will be continued from day to
flay until all are heard. Commission Called Unconstitutional. Mr. Heller told the dealers that he
considered the action of the Legislature In creating the commission as un
warranted interference with the retail
coal trade, permitting an "Incompetent rnd uninterested commission to control the business in an unconstitutional
manner."
In denying any connection with the
- case of the operators he added:
"Neither are we doing this to help
' .indin a TivoooTit Mrh nrlce of
coal, but only because we believe that - the control of our business Is being i unlawfully interfered with in a way " not permitted by our constitution.' Mr. Heller also urged that retailers ? get coal at the present time even at i high prices to protect their customers. He suggested that deliveries be made , in Fmall lots for the next 60 days in ; an effort to relieve the situation. Anthracite All Going East. Mr. Cuphlng. managing director of the American Wholesale Coal association, explained that there would be rractlcallv no anthracite or smokeless coal available in Indiana because of the demand elsewhere for the available supply. He declared that 4.500,000 people have moved to the Eastern states as the result of war industries and greatly increased demand for .anthracite coal in Xew England, where no other kind of fuel Is used extensively. Near--lv half of the small supply of smoket less coal mined in West Virginia is

MURRETTE. "Dancing can be the , surcea3 of much sorrow if only people would realize It," says Constance Binney, Realart's fascinating debutante star. "But, unfortunately, it seems that the great mass of people believe' they must be in the best spirits betore they dance. Take the Instance of Penelope Penn, the heroine of "39 East." the Rachel
Crothers' play in which I have appear- good intentions act as boomerangs,
ed for two seasons and which has recently been adapted for my use on the screen. No one realized better than she the fundamental meaning of the dance and the ifse to which it may
be put.
"Penelope had left .her poverty-
stricken family in her small home-1
town to come to New York to seek her fortune. She tried very, very-
hard but couldn't find the kind of em
ployment she wanted and faced worse
poverty than she had ever known. One night when she was having a partic
ularly bad case of home-sickness and the blues and she couldn't control the choking sobs, she resolved determinedly to make herself cheerful. "Jumping out of bed she turned on the light and there on the rug of her bumble room clad in her funny ruffled pajamas she began dancing to the accompaniment of her own whistling. She danced a regular darky jig embellished with high kicking, but, no
matter what it was she danced.
did win her good spirits back. MURRAY. "The Whisper Market." the Vitagraph production to be shown at the Murray theater on Thursday has provided Corinne Griffith with one of the finest acting opportunities of her screen career. As Erminie North, wife of the American vice-consul at Rio de Janeiro, she gives a vigorous sympathetic portrayal of a real woman, moved by womanly emotions, who fights bravely to help her husband, and, unwittingly, falls into the, toils of a band of international blackmailers.
It is a story of mystery and adventure, involving the governments of two continents, and the woman la the
center about which it revolves. Her
It
is when she is thus at bay. torn by
conflicting emotions, the prey of fear and anguish, but with unquenchable devotion, that Miss Griffith gives of her very best and there is no better. It is a gripping story, with a number of big scenes acted with a tenseness and honesty which bring the whole production to great heighth of realistic drama. WASHINGTON.
Dorothy Gish lends her sunshiny pre- j
sence to a rollicking screen comedy, "Remodeling Her Husband," at the
Washington Theatre the last times Thursday. The vivacious star has the role of
a young woman newly married to a man who bears the reputation of h. ing somewhat of a flirt. He walks the straight and narrow for the first weeks of his married life, but falls by the wayside - with such regularity thereafter that the bride goes home in tears and in haste. She tries to forget her marital difficulties by plunging Into business as her father's secretary. In the meantime, Friend Husband is very repentant and, through an unexpected and novel turn of events, the pair are -brought together again. Mis3
uisn, tne ladles will agree, Is very pretty as a bride and lively as ever in her efforts to re-vamp her husband. The latter is James Rennie, lately recruited from the stage and an excellent teammate for the star. Lillian Gish directed the picture an event in itself and has done a very creditable job. The release Is a Paramount Artcraft.
FEW CHANGES TO BE MADE IN INCOME TAX FORMS WASHINGTON, Sept. 16. Few im
portant changes in the forms of filing
income tax returns will be necessary,
the bureau of internal revenue announced Wednesday after a conference between representatives of various business organizations and a committee on the proposed revision of income tax forms for 1920, appointed by Commissioner Williams. No radical changes are being considered by the committee, the bureau slated, and such suggestions as the business men - have to offer are of minor character. C. B. Hurrey, chairman of the bureau's committee, announced that briefs containing suggestions for the revision of forms will be received until Oct. 1.

You should not miss little Miss Red Head in this one it's her best. And CHAS. HUTCHINSON in the serial that beats 'em all "THE WHIRLWIND" And A GOOD VITAGRAPH COMEDY
SPEAKING OF INNOCENCE She Took the Palm ! Penelope didn't fathom the manager's intentions. He was a theatrical executive of the passing type that paid more heed to pleasure than business. He singled out Penelope for attention, and his intentions were as you may imagine not exactly proper. But Penelope didn't divine that. Penelope was new to the ways of some of its people. Constance Binney's portrayal of the role of Penelope is a delight to witness. ALSO HALLROOM BOYS IN A COMEDY "OH, BABY" It's A Scream See It!
