In it she makes laughs as in "Reducing" and "Caught Short" and at the same time rises to dramatic heights as in "Anna Christie" or "Min and Bill." The new picture is a comedy drama of political life. Miss Dress ier plays a housewife who, goaded to action by conditions in her town, runs for mayor, organizes the women's vote and drives out gangster rule. Polly Moran plays her political manager and aide in battle Charles F. Riesner, who filmed "Caught Short" and "Reducing," directed the new picture, in which a notable cast appears. Rosco Ates is seen as the comic barber, Karen Morley, recently seen in "Never the Twain Shall Meet," and Wil liam Bakewell, of "All Quiet on the Western Front" and other hits, are the romantic leads, and John Mil jan, noted in "The Secret Six," is the gangster ruler.
