AMERICAN BANKERS VOTE AGAINST PLAN TO STABILIZE DOLLAR
(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 19. Professor Irving Fisher's plan to stabilize the dollar by diminishing or increasing the gold behind the dollar as prices fall or rise was adversely reported upon today by - the Currency Commission of the American Bankers' Association. After a year's study, the commitsion found that the plan contained "grave dangers" and it recommended against memoralizing Congress in favor of changes in the monetary system suggested by the Yale economist. "It ia our conclusion", the commission reported, "that Dr. Fisher's plan, though interestingly and ably worked out, is wholly impractical and would involve grave dangers to the stability of our financial and monetary system. Leads to Danger. It would lead to foreign drafts ou our gold In any period of crisis since the plan calls for lightening the gold behind the dollar When prices fall and foreigners, foreseeing this, would draw down their balance and sell 'dollars short before the government could make the change." The commission believed the plan would make "difficult, If not impossible," the maintenance of gold redemption fn periods of rapidly rising prices. If adopted at this time, the commission' asserted. It would work definite hardship and perpetuate the suffering of all those receiving fixed incomes who have suffered from the rapidly rising prices. Plan Is Impractical. "Had the plan been in operation at the outbreak of the war In 1914", the report continued, "it , would have broken down as Dr. Fisher now admits. It could not therefore have prevented the rise in prices of wartime and consequently most of the claims which Drk Fisher had made must now be abandoned.
"The great economic evils of the war
have grown out of wasteful consumption and destruction, demoralization and Interruptiona of transportation
and the withdrawal of many millions of
mpn from nmduction. the whole com
bining to create a scarcity of goods. J
could have prevented this evil. The plan therefore could not have been a remedy for social discontent and distress."

The Theatres
WASHINGTON The picture at the Washington theatre is aptly called "Humoresque." It combines all the pathos and laughter that is in Dvorak's famous melody. More than any picture that we remember teeing this season, it is life itself. "Humoresque" is a Fannie Hurst story, written with all of her deep knowledge of human beings of the ordinary mould. The novel has been transformed with rare sympathy and understanding to the screen. Starting with the boyhood of a youngster in New York's Ghetto, born with two masterful passions in his breast love for his mother. and love for music the photo-play shows the child later as a youthful genius of the violin entertaining royalty and giving a huge concert in New York for his own people. Then comes the great sorrow that seems to forbid him ever playing a violin again. But in a wonderful manner the clouds are rolled by, 'and he and his faithful mother are made happy. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE. "I Want My Rent" or "The Rehearasal" is the headliner at the Hurray this week. A company of six people present this miniature produc
tion which depicts a rehearsal in ses
sion and the comedy and the so-called tragedy which sometimes results from these pre-mortems on a play. Each
and every part is well handled by a very capable company. The baby song by one of the members was well rendered. The director with his Prince Albert supplied most of the comedy of the offering and was well received by the audience. Curt Galloway, on second, stopped the show, at yesterday's matinee. Hi3 songs and stories were the hit of tho bill. He put everything over in such a cool "matter-of-fact way" that he had the audience going from the start. The Lutes Bros, opened the bill, in their offering featuring Clare Lutes, ' The Wizard of the Feet." Clara Lutes does everything with his toes that the average person does with his hands and fingers and more. He opened by playing a trombone and then plays a sounding horn. The feat which brought the most applause was the manner in which he hammered nails and cut wood all with his toes. His final trick that of hitting the bullseye every time with a shot gun was excellent. Elaine Percy in "Her Honor the Mayor" and a Fox News completes the bill. MURRETTE In "The Forbidden Woman" which is now at the Murrette Monday and Tuesday there are shown interior scenes including ball-room, drawfng room, library, foyer, music room, reception galleries, and other extremely elaborate settings which run the costs of this production into an unbelievable total. In addition to scenes of Paris at night. New York at night, and life in the gayer spots of various European capitals. Clara Kimball Young's "The
Eleutherios Venizelos. Reports that King Alexander of Greece is dyinjr of blood poisoningcaused by the bite of a monkey havs caused rumors that an Hellenic republic may be set up if he dies and that Eleutherios Venizelos will be named president. Venizelos, former premier and his country's leading: figure at the Versailles peace conference, has been a commanding figure in Greece for many years.
Forbidden Woman," called for more interior sets of splendor than any previous film in which the noted beauty has appeared. In the special work on the Foreign Embassy shown in "The Forbidden Women," the art glass work required the combined skill of a force of highly skilled glaziers, while the details were planned by experienced architects, decorators, landscape gardeners and others whose vocations have doubled and tripled in value since the film folks have made Los Angeles the center of the picture industry of the world.
