Today is the last day that all
lovers of clean, wholesome comedy
have been looking forward to for
some time. Jane and Katherine
Lee, the "Baby Grands" of the mo-
tion pictures, are to be presented
in an uproarious, side-splitting
farce called "Swat the Spy!" The
Lees" surpassing ability as fun-
makers has been so thoroughly
established that it has only become
necessary to announce their ap
pearance at a motion picture house
to bring the crowds.
This newest feature by the Lee
children is described as a merry
melange of mischievous pranks
and mirth-provoking situations,
placed in a setting of exquisite pa-
thos and practical patriotism.
The comical kids not only prick
the inflated bubble of a monstrous
alien plot, but they perform the
operation in such an exquisitely
humorous fashion that it becomes
a constant source of delight and a
joy forever. Clumsy Karl and
tions if that wage scale, the high-
est in the history of Kansas City,
I were increased. Representatives
of the trades unions carried the
ultimatum to their locals and their
answers are expected to morrow.
The present wage scale gives
these amounts for an 8-hour day:
Bricklayers $7, cement finishers
$6, stonemasons $6, plasterers $7,
hodcarriers $4 40.
The unions demand an increase
of $1 a day for all except the hod-
carriers, for them $1.10.
"The present wage scale is of
wartime proportions and is the
same as wage scales in cities ad-
jacent to Kansas City," Paul M.
Fogel of the Builders* Associa-
tion said today. "Recently pros-
pective builders, bankers and mort
gage loan experts agreed that an
increase in the cost of building
now would prevent many needed
improvements in Kansas City tins
year. There are millions of dol-
lars ready to go into buildings
here, even at the present inflated
costs for material and labor, but
any increase over the war time
prices will make investments top-
heavy and delay building.
