In view ' of general business conditions It is not believed that there will be any general Increase In building material .prices or building trade wages. The commerce department regards the present large demand for building construction as lasting and healthy. Residential buildings have accounted for 47 per cent of all new construction the past two months, whereas during the years 1919 to 1921 residential construction was only 31 ier cent of the total. Home builders are having first call on the resources of the construction Industry In all parts of the country. Political Dartles are neeessflrv tn maintain American institutions of gov ernment, according to Enos Porter of Shelbyville, Ind. Mr. Porter is a manufacturer and Is well known thrnne-h-out the sixth congressional district of maiana. lie nas been very active in Republican politics for a number of years. This week he was in Washington looking over the situation, and he Is firmly convinced that one of the principal reasons congress has been delayed in disposing of a number of Important measures on Its legislative program is because many members of both branches consider themselves above their party, making party "teamwork" difficult. "Every man Bhould belong to one of the two major parties and work through his organization for such law "and policies as he thinks best," said Mr. Porter. "But if the majority of his party decides upon a policy that he does not favor he should submit to the majority opinion In the interests .of good government and party harmony. The leaders of the majority party should have some method of exerting pressure upon recalcitrant members in order to hold the latter In line, for, after all, it is the party, not any individual member, which is responsible to the people for the carrying out of its pledges. This was founded as a government by political parties, not by a disorganized mob of individuals." Surveyed Situation Mr. Porter gave vent to his opinions after a survey of the situation in the senate, where he witnessed several senators of the majority party working sturdily in the ranks of the Democratic opposition to the four-power Pacific treaty, which is the keystone pact on which the Republican party has built the foundation of its most important campaign pledge, namely, the safeguarding of the peace of the world through limitation of interna tional armaments and a satisfactory method for adjustment of questions likely to disturb the peace.

RICHMOND When two men who are alike as two peas meet, something is bound to happen. That is the principal situation in "The Great Impersonation," which is being shown with great success at the Richmond theatre. It is a Paramount picture produced by George Melford. James Kirk wood plays the dual role of a young German military commandant and an English nobleman, two men who look exactly alike. Fate brings them together, and the German, the better to serve the Ttaiser, who is planning his great attack on civilizauon, determines to do away with the Englishman and lmDcrsonatn him in his own country. But at the finish there is one of the most nnnsiini de velopments ever seen in a photoplay, and one that will surprise the most blase audience. , Mr. Kirkwood and Ann Forrest ere admirable in their respective leading roles. Adequate support is given ry Allan Hale, Fontaine La Rue, Winter Hall, Bertram Jones and Truly Shattuck. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE What can be regarded as a unique and strong bill is holding the boards at the Murray this, last half of the week. One of the most refined and at once the cream of the acts, musically, is that of Embs and Alton. Piano and vocal, and piano and violin music is offered. Ease, pose and natural accomplishment is evident. Everyone approves of Ruben and Hall, the "I don't wanna" team. In addition to a variety of clever steps, these boys have a "line" which puts them across with a margin to spare. The greatest comedy act seen in local vaudeville for a long time is that presented by the three in "One On the Isle." The depiction of a popular brand of situation in a movie house, by this trio, is nothing short of screaming. If there is any instrument Lyle and Virginia cannot play it is because they don't have it with them. They are a diminutive team with pep, balance and the power to please. Earle Williams in "Lucky Carson" is the film attraction. MARVIN. MURRAY Earle Williams demonstrates a new aptitude in "Lucky Carson," which is being shown at the Murray theatre. In one scene he is shown rescuing the heroine from drowning by his clever manoeuvering of a motor boat. Although it is not generally known the star is one of the most expert A Helpful Hair Hint You can easily clean your head of dandruff, prevent the hair from falling out and beautify It, if you use Parisian Sage.
