GRIEVANCES OP VIRGIX-ISLANDERS The suppression of free speech and the muzzling of the native press are not the only thorns in the side of the natives. Before the transfer from Danish to United States sovereignty the manufacture of sugar and rum was the chief industry of the Islands. Hundreds of dock laborers, coal carriers, blacksmiths, coopers and caulkers today are out of work because of the economic strangulation caused by prohibition.

Tourists from Europe and America pass by the Virgin Islands and go to the nearby British Isle of Tortola, which, poor in former days, is now prosperous' and self-sufficient. All this la on account of the enactment of prohibition In the Virgin Islands. The franchise Is another cause of discontent. Of the 14,901 persons In St. Croix only 193 can vote; and of the 8000 to 10,000 in St Thomas, only 231.

This is because the old Danish law, which based the franchise on property exclusively, is still kept in force by the Democratic American Government. Here In the United States the Virgin Islanders, who number about 20,000 according to a recent ruling of the State Department cannot vote because they are not citizens and cannot become citizens because they are not aliens. -r Although usually referred to as a "spooky thriller," "The Cat and the Canary," the famous mystery play that comes to the Orpheum toaay and tomorrow.

Thus far there Is nothing to prove it. Not only has Germany, in the last four years, sought to evade the Reparation and disarmament clauses, but she has iostered and forlers among her people a warlike and revengeful spirit. In German schools, universities, societies of all kinds, are not the same warlike hymns, sung as In 1914T The same men, the same the Prussian Junkers, are at the head of Germany, for the Socialist Democratic party, after the revolution caused bv the defeat, was not able to furnish the men to carry on the administration of the govern CHAIRS For Rent Geo.

FEWER, BUT BETTER BABIES Turning to the question of motherhood, we And, as in all civilized countries, that the native birthrate Is steadily declining. Our foreign birthrate is almost double that of our an alarming fact' until we note that the Infant-mortality rate Is exactly twice as great among children of the foreign as opposed to the native born. The American ideal seems, therefore, to be quality rather than quantity; say three welt-spaced healthy births without mortality as against a family of six or more with only half Among the native-born the standard of Infant care and home sanitation la extraordinarily high. Classes, In sex and Infant hygiene, baby' clinics, Montessorl and kindergarten methods, diet and child psychology seem to give the. lie those who assert that-the modern woman In expanding her horizon has neglected her On the -contrary, the twentieth century, which has seen the triumph of feminism.

Added, Topics of the Day aud Screen Snap Shots. "The Cat and The Canary" Pretty soon "The Cat and the like Alexander, will be sighing for" other world's to conquer. Scarcely had the ink dried on contracts for the presentation of John Wlllard's famous mystery play In London and Australia when T. Daniel Frawley secured from Kllbourn Gordon, the rights to produce It In India, China. Japan, the Strait Settlements ana other Far Eastern art centers, for which Mr.

Frawley starts in a few days. This contract provides only for the English-speaking rights as Mr. Gordon has undar- consideration offers tor the production of the play in the native tongues of several of those countries. "The Cat and the Canary" has Just passed Its 200th performance at the National Theater. New York City, and will be seen here at the Orpheum today and tomorrow.

'The Gingham Girl" Laugh and the world laughs with you" Is an old maxim but a true one, and If followed, makes one popular and welcome in all circles; that Is one of the reasons why the musical comedy of distinction, "The Gingham Girl," which the Messrs. Schwab and Kusell, Its owners and producers will present at the Orpheum on Friday and Saturday and Saturday matinee, was the talk of New York all last season where it ran for a solid year at the Earl Carroll Theater, gaining the distinction of being the best entertainment seen in the metropolis in the past decade. "Wildflower" "Wlldflowei" (the "Bambalina" Show), and the very latest of Arthur Hammerstein's musical plays, will burst forth at the Orpheum Monday and Tuesday night. is said to be one of the most satisfying musical productions of last season, presenting a notable cast headed by Eva Ollvottl, and a refreshingly stunning chorus attired in startling creatines. i Some of the most tuneful numbers in "Wildflower" are "Bambalina," "Wildflower" and "April Blossoms." "Human Wreckage" A positive triumph drives Its message clean at Regent all this week.

Mrs. Held, the star, does wonderful work, large audience greeted scene after scene with applause, voices lifted In approval, and grim nods of determination. From Its placid beginning to its smashing finish, the film has held them spellbound. Its absolute accuracy of detail, the truthful picturization of conditions as they actually exist, and its terrible denunciation of those responsible for the spread of the evil, do much to fulfill the wish of its sponsor, i that it arouse the people of each community to consciousness of duty. Don Lanning in Pretty Baby Last Half of Week The last half of the week at the Majestic Theater, Jimmle Hodges' 1923 version of -the International re vue, Pretty Baby, will be.

presented with all the Hodges company in a melange of fun, song-and dancing. Don Lanning is cast as Mr. "Mike Morris." Don has increased his popularity in. Harrisburg. Speaking about it be said: "Well, I hardly know Just how to express my gratitude, but if the putting forth of every effort and working hard to please the public.
