"Me and My Gal" is a fast moving comedy
^entering around a flatfoot along the waterfront
of New York, and tells how he,as a plainclothes
detective, comes tjbrough -the last minute, catches
a notorious gangster, reaps in the $10,000 reward
and m'arries the girl,
One- very entertaining alit is a scene between
Spencer anud Joan in which "Strange Interlude"
effects, i. e. both the actual. words 'and 'the
thoughts of the characters, are emiployed. For in-
stance, Spencer says aloud, "Oh, well," ahd sinks
b~ack on the sofa. Then you hear his voice, 'al-
though his lips do not move, saying "Bet I could
warm her up with a slug of gin."
Certailn drunk 'comedy in "Me and My Gal" is
id nauseamr, but the picture gets by with manifest
'avor. Joan Bennett is appealing 'as the. water-
ront. restaurant cashier.
"Son-Daughter," which we forecasted would not
appeal~ to a largely student audience, was taken
3,way a day early because of its weak drawing
qualities.

from income tax increases. To offset that is the
determined, opposition to sales taxes by farmer
and labor groups, prme factors in the Roosevelt
support. Their candidate upheld something more
tangible than interests "of the people"
Lilliputian political ties-that-bind were, how
ever, scrupulously avoided by the president-elect
in hisCampaign. He Was, in shunning sales tax
dynamite,~,being faithful to his own position. Bay
radio from Albany he had reiterated the platform
plank for :taxation based on ability to pay, citing
income andinheritance taxes as in line with that
principle.- The sales tax is not, fundamentally;

~Most important, however, is not the attitude of
one" Individual (even the President-elect) on one
issue (even the taxation of daily living). First and.
foremost is this further evidence that Roosevelt
