The butter trade was mystified re garding the recent action of the gov ernment In demanding only fresh butter for1 relief purposes and to aid the Industry, when It puroliased this stock and put It In storage. This proved no aid to the storage prob lem. Instead aggravated It. The gov ernment now has storage butter for relief while lb purchased fresh stock. Quality of storage butter was said -to be unusually poor which has turn ed much of the trade away from such offerings. Trading in the egg market here continued erratic with calef interest on the produce exchange in current receipt which were selling relatively higher than the better grades. Southern agricuitural colleges re port that numerous farmers are us ing cotton benefit payments under the crop control program to make down payments on land of their own.

Uo 6, ftj With pictures like ' "Fugitive Lovers", the new Metro -Gold wyn- Mayer film now playing at the Lib erty theatre, the movies come into their own. The new melodrama,' a thriller from beginning to end, is the kind of a story to which only the cinema could do justice, and in this case they do more than justice. Written by Ferdinand Reyher and Frank Wead, the story Is, first of all, flawless. Richard Boleslavsky's bril liant direction has the power to en hance even the best story. The cast, each member superb in his or her part, was wisely chosen, Robert Montgomery is as daring In tho thrilling prison escape scene as he is romantic. Madge Evans por trays the role of an independent chorine with charm, feeling and con vincing characterization. Ted Healy and his three madcap stooges are hilarious in their "straight" character roles. . As Daly, detective par excellence, C. Henry Gordon is the kind of prison official who would make the most sagacious escaped convict lie awak nights. The novelty - and freshness of "Fugitive Lovers" lies In the fact that practically the entire story takes place on a great Greyhound road cruiser en route to Hollywood from New York City. Seeing the picture is like making an exciting cross country trip. weep no mote mi ladu Here's a triple-plated recipe for elimi nating those breakfast brambles.
