ism with built sets, Fred Granville

quarters.

JACW HOLT AT
LIBERTY SUNDAY
Jack Holt haH been proclaimed
the most versatile star in motion
pictures. Not.-only has such on hon
or been accorded Mr. Holt, but he
has won it honestly. In his latest
six pictures, the Paramount star has
played what is believed to be the
widest variation of characters ever
enacted by one screen actor.
In "the Call of the North’ Holt
was a fur trapper. In "North of
the Rio Grande’ he was a cowboy.
For "While Satan Sleeps’’ assumed
the role of a reformed crook who
became a minister, llis character in
"On the High Seas' was that of a
steamship stoker. In “Making a
Man” he was a man of wealth and
influence.
To top these off, Mr. Holt Is now
starring in a famous stage success.
"Nobody's Money,' which Paramount
has adapted to the screen from Wil
liam LeBarron’s play, and which
comes to the Liberty tomorrow. In
this picture. Holt is a debonair young
book agent, a role entirely different
; from anything he has enacted be
I fore. It 'is through these six char
I aeterizations, no two of which are in
'any way the same, that Mr. Holt has
I won recognition as the most versatile
| screen star.
Another episode of “Fighting Blood"
will also lie shown.

POSITION IN
APPROPRIATIONS
I • - . I
.High Results Secured in
I Comparison with Fortunes j
of U. S. as a Whole.
"Now that final report of approp
riations by tile last Congress is avuil
lablo, it is interesting," said Colonel
Steese, President of (lie Alaska Road
Commission, today, "to compare the
results secured by the Alaska Road
Commission with the fortunes of the
United Slates a whole. When 1
reached Washington last fall, the
order had been issued from the White
House that notwithstanding (lie pas
sage of (lie Soldiers’ Bonus Bill,
the total appropriations for 192(1
should be less than they had been
for 1925; in other words, the Soldiers I
Bonus of some $126,000,000 for the i
year should he absorbed by a cor-'
responding reduction in the combined
cost of the other activities of the
Government. And this was accom
plished in fact, as tlie reports of the
| Chairmen of the Appropriations Com
mittee now show."
I "The total appropriations by the
’last Congress for 1926, the fiscal
year beginning July 1, 1925, were ,
j $3,936,921,277.76. This figure is $11,-1
I 125,847.08 less than the aggregate!
I amounts allowed by tlie Budget, and I
$24,921,749.50 less than the total ap
propriations for last year.”
“On the other hand, (lie Alaska
Itoad Commission secured an in
crease in its appropriation to $900,
000.00 an increase of $175,000.00 or
over 24 per cent as compared witli
last year when $725,00 was secured.
In addition, the entire amount of
$900,000 will be expended by March
1st, 1926, when an additional $676,
000.00 becomes available, of which'
at least $300,000 will be expended'
before the end of the fiscal year’
on June 30th, 1926. Furthermore, the
accounting year has been permanent
ly shoved back to March 1st each ;
year, a gain of 1-3 year in funds."!
In addition, an Increased allotment ■
was secured for Nome Harbor, new j
work at Ml. McKinley Park amount- j
ing to $272,000 of which $180,000 is
available, and authority for $500,000
of new work al Wrangell Nurrows.”
