summoned aid. Mrs. Reed hurried
to her husband’s side as he sank
heavily into his chair. Later she
reported that he had recovered, but
the solicitor general still was weak
and pale as he left the building.
Caused by Overwork
His attack was attributed by
friends to overwork. He has, they
said, worked day and night upon
the government's defense of the
mass of new deal legislation, includ-
ing the AAA, TVA and the Bank-
head ac:, now under fire.
Earlier in the day, the Hoosac
mills case involving the constitu-
tionality of the processing taxes,
had been taken under advisement
by the court with the prayer of
new deal foe that the “land of thd
regimented be not substituted fo|
the land of the free.”
The verdict in this case and othj
ers challenging new deal legislation
is not expected before mid-January!

United States oil producers and diplomats aiikv. were keeping watch on international affairs as the time approached for final decision on
Dec. 12 by the League of Nations on whether to forbid oil shipments o lubricate Italy’s war machine in Ethiopia. Exports of crude oil from
the United States to Italy Increased from 62,000 barrels to 417,000 b:., .n Oc.obcr. A tight embargo eventually would cripple the Italian
war machine In Ethiopia and might lead to repercussions on the con .t, close observers agreed. II Duce's army needs oil for transports
and for army supply trucks, such as those shown being unloaded in Mritrea; for its tanks, which have proved vital factors in advances;
for its military planes, and for its warships, without which it wot e crippled on the Mediterranean. (Associated Press Photos)

You’ve heard them on the radio
every Sunday night, and now you
can see them on the screen, Major
Bowes and his famous amateurs!
One of the most entertaining and
hilarious programs on the ah- now
becomes a reality when you see the
genial major and a group of talented
young pepole.
This decidedly new and current
show is being presented at the Tex-
as theatre Thursday ,aiji Friday
matinee and night shows. It has re-
ceived the biggest box-office reports
of any show of its kind. The de-
lightful major, favorite master of
ceremonies on any program, comes
to life when you really see him on
the screen.
Along with Major Bowes, is show-
ing "Farewell to Annapolis,” star-
ring Richard Cromwell, Sir Guy
Standing, Tom Brown, Rosalind
Keith and a host of other Hollywood
Stars.
The Bengal Lancers of America
are the midshipmen of the United
States Naval academy, and their life
at the most famous school in the
counry is shown in “Farewell to An-
napolis.”
Sir Guy Standing takes the role
of a retired naval officer whose in-
fluence , upon two midshipmen
changes their whole life.
Richard Cromwell and Tom Brown,
cast as roommates and rivals in the
picture, are excellent in their parts,
typifying the wholesome, clean cut
American youth of today; both red-
blooded, hard-working, intelligent
athletic, self-assured, specimens.
Both give individually fine perfor-
mances.
Rosalind Keith as the romantic in-
terest in the film, rival in the boy’s
affections, is just the kind of girl a
young middie would be expected to
have. John Howard deserves men-
tion also. Benny Baker, Louise
Beavers are responsible for many
amusing sequences. Alexander Hall
did a splendid job of direction, with
the full cooperation of officers and
students of the academy.
The story centers around the prob-
lems, training and romances in the
lives of Cromwell and Brown during
their middle years at Annapolis. It
remains for Sir Guy Standing to
show them the real meaning of their
education at the academy. In one
of the most exciting gun battles ever
filmed, the boys are brought to a re-
alization of the trust imposed on
them.

At The Liberty
‘'Savage Girl” and let’s go native
at the Wednesday night show! Ro-
chelle Hudson portrays the delight-
ful savage girl while Walter Byron
takes the lead opposite her. A
thoroughly stag expedition starts off
from the United States to darkest
Africa and continues pretty much in
the dark until a beautiful and
strange savage girl, white, who
speaks not a word of English, throws
light and not a little confusion into
the party. Also comedy. Remem-
ber Wednesday night only.
Frank Morgan, long a favorite
with theatre goers, has his best role
in a very entertaining picture, “The
Perfect Gentleman.” A comedy-ro-
mance that is both amusing and de-
lightful. Hilarious situations and
a rollicking climax brings “The Per-
fect Gentleman” to an exciting close.
Also comedy and serial.
Saturday afternoon and night
programs bring Tom Tyler, popular
western star, to the screen in “The
Larmie Kid,” a stirring gun-play ro-
mance of the great outdoors that is
very exciting and entertaining. Also
news reel, serial and comedy. Don’t
miss this special program.
Against a background of political
intrigue, Bill Powell, suave, sophis-
ticated, Mr. Powell with Rosalind
Russell is seen for the week-end
picture, “Rendezvous,” a mystery
comedy, concerning the intelligence
department activities in codes, se-
cret inks and messages during the
late war. A romance between the
two principals is delightfully amus-
ing. The whole picture is remin-
iscent of “The Thin Man” and every
bit as good. Don't miss it. “Ren-
dezvous” shows at the Saturday
night preview and runs through
Tuesday. Also news reel and comedy.

Selassie Would—

amendments were sent to Paris,
which accepted them.
Premier Laval called the changes
“minor”; Anthony Eden, Britain's
secretary for league affairs, called
them “considerable.”
Eden Urges Support
Eden pleaded for support of the
revised scheme, dispelling reports
he would resign because of opposi-
tion to the program worked out by
Laval and Foreign Secretary Sir
Samuel Hoare.
A serious situation developed In
Geneva, where smaller powers were
reported angered by the peace plan
as described in unofficial reports.
Delegates from these powers said
the original plan would put a “pre-
mium” upon aggression and was
unfair to Ethiopia and a violation of
the league covenant.
Ethiopia Gets Port
An authoritative source in Paris
described main aspects of the plan
as follows:
Ethiopia to be given a port in
Eritrea; Italy to get Tigre province
except for the Holy City of Aksum
and much Southeastern territory;
an Italian-sponsored colonization
venture in Ethiopia to be entered;
and the league to give administrative
and financial aid to Ethiopia.
There has been no intimation that
either Haile Selassie or Mussolini
would approve the program.
Communiques in both belligerent
capitals yesterday claimed successes
in the north.

Laughter Lingers
A trace of laughter which fol-
lowed still floated about the cham-
ber as Reed arose to defend the
government’s position. Chief Jus-
tice Charles Evans Hughes ruled
sternly against him on one point.
Other justices fired pointed ques-
tions at him.
Suddenly Reed began to sway.
His face blanched. He paused for
a moment, his body trembling. Jus-
tices leaned forward gazing at him
intently.
“I am afraid I must ask the
court’s indulgence and ask the
court to bring up the case again,”
Reed said slowly.
Lawyers seated nearby rushed to
“He never suspected
it, either, until one
day at school, they
had a test. He couldn’t
see the letters on the
;h art when he shut his
right eye.
