"LAST ROUND - UP," Aurlws NEW FILM, TOP - NOTCH TumlLLmt

If you're looking for top-notch entertainment that packs s. real punch. start hlrlfflffling “I'm gem-l. lug for the Last Round-Up" and head straight for the Capitol The- atre, where Gene AuLry and his lemons horse. Champion, are starr- gl in Columbia's "The Last Round-

p...

The picture. which was filmed by Gene's own production company. jammed through with blazing scl- ion. tparkling music, hilarious slap- stick and tender. hoart-wdrming drama. Everything about it is msg- niflcently done on a lavish scale. making the film one of the most thoroughly enjoyable super-West- erns of the year.

The screenplly. which was pre- pared by Jock Townley and Earle Snell. is a thrilling story of today. bristlinl with all the smoke and

of yesterday's West- Essen- tially. the plot is concerned with a land problem where neighboring rachers and Indians are being forced off their property to make room for a. new aqueduct.

Gene, who portrays s rancher, proves of invaluable assistance to the» town authorities and arranges s. deal whereby everything is set- tled satisfactorily. However, a dis- gruntled land manipulator goods the Indians into a senseless attack upon the ranchers.

Reverting to 1W9. the red-skins don their forefathers‘ walpaint and gallop into battle. 0f course, Gene subdues the uprising and straight- ens matters out in the end. but be- fore he does. the screen resound: to ih fury of violent gunfighrs, thun- dering stsmlpcdos and a ferocious fist fight that tops anything over seen on celluloid.

In addition to Autry. who never was better. the cast also includes Jean Heather. Ralph Morgan. Carol Thurston. Mark Daniels and the Texas Rangers.

He noticed that the external audiiorl did nct certify lo the account The Premier had stated that there Nil an amount outstanding cf $200.- 00000, a large part of which could not be collected. This was public money collected from the taxpayer and any blame attached to the mishandling of these funds must be placed on the Government who are responsible to the people. This board should have been of great benefit to fishermen and it was nothing short of disgraceful the way it has been mishandled.

But he felt the Govern- ment can't go on this way much longer. At present, people were taxed almost out of existence and there must come a lowering of tex- stion, There is also bound to come a. period when taxes will not be coming in as they are now.

“We should have been paying off our debt during the last 10 years when other governments were do- ing this," Mr. MacLean- said. “in- stead we have been going behind."

It must be remembered that this Province hasn't the natural re- sources that other provinces have, and expecting to pay off a huge debt is a different proposition with us. -

Mr. MacLean noted that there was a change in the personnel of the Government and also additions in tho number of deputies, new appointments being made all along the line. It had never been his fortune to be on the Government sills of the House but he had al- ways been interested in this Iorl of thing and could understand that

which will please everybody. But one rule he noticed was followed as closely as possible, and Ia follows! in business as well. was that an equal division was made from a re- ligious standpoint. It ia perfectly obvious that this unwritten law had not been followed by this Gov- ernment ih making appointments. This is not a happy situation. Mr. MscLean laid. as there cannot be harmony and prosperity unless equal opportunity is given to all. Perhaps the department cf moat interest to the people of the rural districts is the Department of Pub- lic Works, laid Mr. MscLoon.
