And probably the bubbles from the ex-

Thus an escort of seaplanes should
have far better chance of spotting
the presence of submarines than could
any escort Of surface ships. At the
same time it is well to remember that
an escort of destroyers or some similar
type of armed ship is necessary, be-
cause the aeroplane or airship of today
is not capable of carrying guns big
enough TO sink submarines with GER
tainty. and the art of bomb dropping
from aircraft has not become suff-
of the bombs reaching their mark as
great as is the certainty Of shell

Therefore the aircraft by them

skill and good luck, whereas by acting

Where the naval air craft really do

There is a popular illusion. which is
not exactly a delusion, that the OBJ
server in an aerOplane can see as far
down into the water as submarine
is likely TO dive. Up to point this is
true, for if the water is clear it is pos
sible to see some twenty or thirty feet
into it from point vertically above,
and if such water is only forty or fifty
feet deep submarine is not likely to
dive beyond the visibility point.
1t is quite another matter. however

it is fairly obvious that the
scouting air craft have to depend on
surface vision quite as much as the
patrol boats Where the difference
does come in is in the angle of vision
from which that surface view is OBJ

Hoyne also said he had received
information that Tom Costello, al
legged head of the vice syndicate, and
Chief of Police Healey had discussed
a list of Sc resorts which they ac-
cused these three men of protecting
and which they proposed to turn
over to HOyne to blind him to other
vice resorts, said to have been al
lowed to run wild on the West Side.
A rUmOr was flashed about that
one of the members of the police de-
partment caught in Hoyne's net had
confessed during the day and had
brought the trail of graft to the doors
of powerful and wealthy members of
the City Hall political machine.
The raiding parties from Hoyne's
Office continued to bring in denizens
of the underworld with regularity all
day, and several auto loads Of spe-
cial investigators were dispatched to
the West Side with names and ad-
dresses of resort and dive keepers.
Hoyne was back at his Office before
8 O'Clock.
Among those arrested today are
Rosie Cohen, keeper of an "exclu-
sive" West Side ''tea house,; "Mon-
key Face" Charles Genker and ia
cob Levin. Rosie Cohen is alleged
to have made a statement to an in

graft at the door of the City Hall.
Coincident with this runnor came one
ITO the effect that further raids would
be made by Hoyne detectives today
that would cIinch the case against
the "Vice trust" that has ruled the
underworld of Chicago since the be-
ginning of Chief HeaIey's regime.
Chief Healey was arrested at his
home at 6128 University av. after
Asst States Atty Mckay had paid
him mis- second visit of the day. On
the first occasion Mckay was forcibly
elected as he was without warrants.
Healey then secured two bOndsmen,
Jas. G.. BaTsaloux and Albert Mohr,
and Judge Fry. When Mckay reap
peared Judge Fry allowed the chief
his freedom on 100000 bonds.
Healey was arraigned this morn
ing before Judge Mahoney. On mo-
ton of his attorney, John J. HeaIy,
his bonds were reduced to $4,000
and the case continued ten days.

state. There were no arguments.

"Chu Chin Chow
At The Manhattan

The biggest sensation in many
years in New York has been scored
by the beautiful production of "Chu
Chin Chow" at the big Manhattan
Opera House on West Saith street.
This remarkable production al fas-
cinating combination of musical come
dy, extravaganza, spectacle and farce.
1t was originally done in London and
is now in the second year of its sue
cess there. The scenes are laid in
Bagdad thousand years ago and the
story is based partly upon the old
Thievec. The central figure of "Chu
Chin Choy" is the robber chief, who
comes into Bagdad in disguise with
his band of robbers. His plans are
foiled by Zahrat, the beautiful slave
girl who obtains her revenge upon
the robber chief before the play is
over. Although highly fanciful in
story, the romance is told in such
fascinating manner that it has been
the sensation of New York. 1t is in
fourteen scenes, there are eighteen
song hits to the production and the
costumes are simply bewildering by
Their ibeauty and gorgeousness. In
the big bazaar scene there is fash
ion parade in which twenty NAME
quins display the latest fashions Of
Bagdad.
The cast is very notable one, in
Guiding Tyrone Power, Florence Reed,
Henry Dixey, Tessa Kosta, Kate Con-
don and great many others. There
are more than two and fifty people in
the ensemble and a ballet of sixty, led
by Nile. Katherine Galanta.
