love and Intrigue ever shown in this
city Is Marion Davles' latest'' Select
Picture, "The Burden of Proof." in
which she Is directed by Julius Kteger,
which will be seen at the Alta Thea
tre today. In this picture Miss Davles
plays the part of Elaine Brooks, a
wife of Robert Ames, nephew of a
member of the United States cabinet.

ana Airs. Durand are both German
secret agents In the possession of
Ames. Immediately after Elaine's
wedding 'Mrs. Durand goes to Elaine
and has her write a letter to Kemp
apologizing for not having Invited him
to the wedding. This Elaine Is glad
to do and at the 'same time Mrs.
Durand takes advantage of her inno
cence by dictating a phrase '-which
makes Elaine appear guilty when the
papers have been stolen from Ames'
desk.
George Blair, a member of the De
partment of Justice, has been called
in. He suspects that Mrs. Durand has
used Elaine's letter to Kemp as a me
dium for sending the papers, so he
orders Kemp to return the enevlope
unopened.- This Kemp does and the
papers are restored, but Ames is led
to believe his wife guilty of abiding
the enemy. Scoring to assert her In-'
nocense Elaine refuses to answer'
Ames' questions, and when the dirrrr
ence between them threatena to be
come greater, Blair traces the source1
of the letter to Mrs. Durand and for
ces her to made a confession. Once1

WASHINGTON,- Sept. 9. Measures
aimed to smash the high cost of liv

since the president made an urgent
appeal to congress for legislation none
of the major measures requested have
been finally acted upon.
