DEBENTURE
PLAN LOST
louse Rejects Measure By
Vote qf 250 To
113
WASHINGTON. June 13.—*/P>—
The hou.ne today backed up the
views of President Hoover by re
jecting th't export debenture plan
of farm relief.
The debenture proposition, which
Mr. Hoover had attacked twice in
public statements and which he
had termed a subsidy, was voted
down on a roll call vote taken at
the insistence of the senate which
had approved it on two occasions.
A number of senators had been
represented, however, as demand
ing the inclusion of the plan in
the bill in order that the house
members could be recorded on it.
Today's action was regarded by ad
ministration leaders as paving the
way for a recession by the senate
in its stand and quick transmittal
of a relief measure, minus the de
benture to the White House. The
vote was 250 to 113.

Rin-Tin-Tin. most famous of can- j
ine screen stars, lias a new pal in
his latest Warner Brothers picture.
‘ Frozen River, here two days start
ing tomorrow at the Queen theater, j
It is little Davey Lee. tne child ac- j
tor who was discovered by A1 Jol-1
son and shared honors with that fa- i
vorite of stage and screen in “The
Singing Fool.” and has since been
starred by Warner Bros, in “Sonny
Boy.”
Davey Lee is cast as the heroine's
little brother who. alone in the
woods one day. meets a strange dog.
Lobo. raised by a pack of wolves.
Lobo had left the pack and made
advances to mankind only to meet
with brutality and cruelty. He had
become a killer, with a price upon
his head, and had even been known
to attack men. But the savage beast
was only a dog to the little boy and
his laughing affection won the heart
of the animal.
AT CAPITOL
Miss Dorothy Mackaill. popular
screen star, whose chic and charm-1
ing personality contributes so large
ly to the characters she portrays, j
praises the trmnner in which the
medern girl dresses and uses cosme
tics.
"The working gir! of today knows
how to make up and knows she
shouldn't use too much make-up.
She has learned that powder must
not be too white and rouge and
lipstick too vivid.
"Her attire too has undergone a
complete revision. The smart, tai
lored things worn by women of fash
ion. have been also adopted by the
girl who works. The trim and neat
appearance she now presents, is a
tribute to her sex and class."
Miss Mackaill is featured with
Milton Sills in the new talking and
sound version of the Broadway suc
cess. “The Barker,” which is the
attraction at the Capitol theater,
continuing through Saturday. All
four stars of this production are
teen and heard along with the in
cidental orchestral and sound ef
fects. Included in the cast of those
who will be heard in talking parts i
arp Betty Compson. Douglas Fair
banks. Jr., and George Cooper.

“Who Killed the Canary?" Is the

theater today for two days.
“The Canary Murder Case" lias
everyone guessing. “Who Killed the
Canary" is the cry j^he hour. Who

AT ARCADIA
Take a Pathe star like William
Boyd, a supporting cast that in
cludes Owen Moore. Carol Lom
bard. nine Ellis. Billy Bevan and
PhillipsSmalley and a virile, dra
matic story laid in the snow-cov
erel Sierra mountains in Califor
nia. mix well with the latest in
talking picture technique and serve
as a 100 per cent dialogue attrac
tion under the title of “High Volt
age" and motion picture fans have
delectable screen entertainment.
That’s why manager Pickens of
the Arcadia theate* takes especial
pains to announce this new Pathe
picture as his feature attraction
for today, and that’s why this pop
ular playhouse is bound to be one of
the brightest spots along the local
Rialto during its run.
“High Voltage" is William Boyd’s
first all-talking picture and if skill
ed picture reviewers may be relied
upon. William Boyd's popularity as
a star of the silent drama is des
tined to be eclipsed by William
Boyd, talkie star. The story is a
tensely dramatic one. and yet, by
way of relief, there are many mo
ments of hilarity provided by Billy
Bevan. former Mack Sennett com
edv star. Carol Lombard and Diane
Ellis supply the feminine interest,
and the scenes in the High Sierras
are considered to present some of
the finest examples of snow pho
tography yet shown in a picture.
Howard Hi:-gin directed "High
Voltage" and it is a worthy succes
sor to his previous production. “The
Leatherneck." Elliott Clawson
wrote the story and James Gleason
is # credited with the dialogue. It Is
a Ralph Block production.
