At Antlers Today Thursday, Friday, Saturday 'r lM-x(Rr III Walter Huston and Katherine Francis in a scene from the Paramount Picture "Gentlemen of the Press" ''Gentlemen of the Press," late.;; all-talking drama of newspaper life, is nt, the Antlers today. On the stage it wns the sensa tion of New York nnd the story has been faithfully reproduced for the screen. A master cast, headed by Walter Huston, includes six members of the original siage cast. The story deals with a veteran newspaper man, who has given up everything in life for his business.

(Awxviiilfd 1r'M Ia-unsI Wire) ROME, Aiis. 1. Protestant clergymen and Jewish rabbis will hereafter enjoy the same privilege as Roman Catholle priests In being able to (dead "the professional se cret" when deelinlng to give testi mony before the llatiau courts. Tills Is made clear In the second portion of the new Code of Penal Proeedure Issued by the Minister of Justice. It will secure to non-Catholic ministers the same right or keep hiK confessions Inviolate that has long been tacitly granted to priests of the Romau church. Cardinals, under the new code, have a peculiar privilege. If .they are cited as witnesses In legal ac tion, their testimony may be taken at their domiciles, since they are considered on a par with princes of the blood royal ami high of ficials of the State. The Idea bo hind this provision Is that every Cardinal is a potential sovereign, being eligible to election as Pope on the death of the reigning pon tiff, and therefore comparable with an Italian prince In line of succes sion to the throne. - Gothic Restoration Costly DUBLIN. Aug. 1. It costs the Irish Free State half a million dol lars yearly to enforce Its com pulsory use of the Irish language among coming professional men and women. This figure was announced by the Kinance Minister, though op ponents of the policy contend that the cost, directly and IndireeUy. Is much greater. The requirement does not apply to present lawyers, doctors and others, but only to boys and girls under 15 who are In professional sehools. Kamon )e Valera's party Is as eager for restoration of the Caelic tongue as Is the government nnd the opposition Jif believed to have little chance of success. Sweden Ends Idleness STOCKHOLM. Ail 7. 1. From 1!H4 to Vr2t Sweden spent SfM.luil, ooo for relief of unemployed, says a report of the State Unemploy ment commisbion. Ar- present the number of unem ployed In Sweden shows a mini mum figure, hut the number regis tered dining 11(22 averaged about lfiU.OOO every mouth. Only about one-firth oT the entire sum spent was given as doles, the rest, being used on constructive unemploy ment relief.

Epidemic of Protest RKliLIN, Aug. 1. Kurope Is a continent of protests nowadays. All nations protest aKaiteit hav ing to pay their war debts; states men protest against each other's pronouncements; parlies protest against each other's policies; mi FUTURE PROGRESS AND GROWTH The future progress and growth of this Bank can readily be foretold from its past record.

Another big feature on the pro gram is Raymond McKeo In an all talking comedy "Family Picnic.' It's a whole show In Itself. norities protest against coercion by their overlords; the Rhlnelnnd pro tests; the Saar protests; farmers protest a c a i list governmental neg lect and the man In the street Is forever protesting against the cost of living and high taxation. All these protests evoke counter protests, and these counter-protests lead to more protests, uud so on endlessly. The- city of Danzig protested against the Versailles Treaty on its tenth anniversary. The Poles protested that the Danzigers had no right to protest. Then the Dan zi tiers protested against the Polish protest, whereupon the Poles pro--tested. Protesting becomes a mania in individual cases. At Traunstein, Havaria, a man committed suicide, because be said in a note, he felt himself responsible for all the troubles of the Fatherland. And nt Sonnenburg n man In a state of nudity climbed on a roof, shouting: "I protest against the republic""! want my Kaiser baek." U. S. Railways Copied MOSCOW, Aug. 1 Russia Is Im proving her fall transport with what she calls the American pro gram. Modern railroading methods common on every line in the Unit ed States are replacing the archaic customs by which trains were op erated over the wide-gauge tracks in ezarist times. Trains are now moved across the vast spaees of Russia and Siberia by the dispateher system. Until a Tew years ao freight trains, once they stopped at a station, could move on only when the station master decided to let them pro ceed. When the station master had a whim or a vodka hangover, be took It out on the train. TJiey had pride, the station masters, and didn't at all like their authority over engines and cars to be taken away with the new fancied system. The engineers and firemen also had their pride wounded. In the old days a locomotive was assigned to an engineer and no one else could handle it. When nn engineer finished his run, lie put his loco motive in the roundhouse ami here it remained until he look H out again. All that Is changed. The Slate Railroad Administration tries lo get as much use out of the loco motive as it can. and the engineer who is at (he throttle of one loco motive toilay may be in the cab of another tomorrow. The graft that existed before the war has also been stamped out. In Roseburg Cabinet Shop f42 Fowler St. FURNITURE REPAIRING All kinds or Iluilt-iu Work made to order. Window Screens made to order.

When a Pole j and a German in this free city or . Danzig discuss n town In the Pol-1 Ish cor rid or1 , which before the war i was German territory, n linguist duel is almost Inevitable.

German chauffeur, pretending not to have understood: "Where did you say you want to go?" Pole: "Gdynia." German: "Ah, I see, Gdhigcn. Ves, the roads are quite good." Pole: "How are the hotels nt Gdynia?" (with marked emphasis on the Polish pronunciation). German: "Gdingen (with equnllv marked German accent) "has one or two quite modern hotels."

None of t hose wat chlng, however, knew definitely whether he succeeded in holding himself in the shaft.
