Dust Storm Picture
Is Booked at Palace
Fred Phillips of the Palace
Theater announces the showing of
"The Plow that Broke the Plains"
in connection with his regular pic-
ture program all next week
The picture is described as a
saga of the land of the Great
Plains area Dramatized in ten
principal sequences the film traces
the story of the plains country
during the past 50 years survey-
ing the passing of the buffalo the
successive invasions of range cat-
tle the homesteader and the large-
scale wheat farmer with a dra-
matic climax in the portrayal of
the results of disastrous dust
storms throughout the region
The music is special scores on
American themes composed by
Virgil Thomson famous young
American composer The music is
rendered by members of the 1Nlet-
ropolitan Opera association and the
New York Philharmonic orchestra
Critics say of the film: "It is as
dramatic as anything could be—the
struggle between man and nature
"—National Board of Re-
view magazine "One of the finest
specimens of the documentary film
on record There is more
serious drama in this truthful
record of the soil than in all the

Watt chief of polce Oklahoma

lic enemies by the score will make
a talk over a statewide radio hook-
up urging citizens and voters of
Oklahoma to assist officers on No-

This is not a pension bill Mr

to retire meritorious and disabled
officers if the cities and towns so
desire
