THREE MILLION
CHINESE STRIKE
Students Parade Streets in Protest
Against Teaching Advocating
Direct Negotiations With
Japan.
TBy Charles Edward Hogue, United

SHANGHAI, April 18.-Three mil
lion students throughout the fourteen
northern provinces OF China went on
strike today in protest against the
teaching advocating direct negotla-
tions with Japan on the ShantunS
question. according. to reports re-
ceived here.
The students who are parad1ng the
streets OF the principal cities are
seeking to enlist the support Of
China's hundred million trade union
lists. No action has yet been taken
sby the union workers.
Abrogation 'of all secret treaties is
demanded by the striking students
who have promised they will not
molest foreigners.
Intense feeling against Japan has
marked the attitude of nearly all Chi
nese students since the Shantung
peninsula settlement by the Paris
conference.
The hatred became crystalized re-
Gently when students boycotted Japa-
nese merchants at FoOchow. Severe
disorders marked the boycott.
For some time there has been a
feeling among the students of higher
educational institutions that the
Shantung question should not be left
to direct negotiations with Japan.
The students are now seeking the
support of the labor unions who are
asked to call a general strike.l

"THE GREAT
AIR ROBBERY"

Playgoers who believe that the
limit has. been reached in photoplay
realism are due for an awakening
when they witness "The Great Air
Robbery" the wonderful Universal
feature starring Lieutenant o.. L..
Locklear, who changes from plane to
plane in mid-air, which will. be shown
at the Rialto theatre today.
The story of "The Great Air
Robbery" is not only up-to-the- min
ute, but few years in advance; for
it concerns Larry Cassidy, crack pilot
of the American trans-continental
mail service, and his fearless, dare
devil feats in bringing to an end the
exploits of band Of air pirates and
winning the girl he loves. The
mastery of the air by men and women
or iron nerve and histrionic skill has
made possible the filming of this thrill
ling narrative which, while it has yet
had no parallel in real life, is quite
within the scope of modern achieve
ment.
Willie Mason, young aviator in the
U. S. Mail service, and friend of
Larry Cassidy, becomes enmeshed in
the schemes of the air pirates, through
his attempt to secure his Croix de
Guerre, which he has sent to his
sweetheart, but which falls into the
hands of the Black Squadron. Larry
Cassidy goes to save his friend from
his own folly and to protect the regis
tered mail. A u. S. deputy marshal
also in the aviation branch of the
service, is on the track of the aerial
marauders, and in the three cornered
kfpeounter which ensues, some of the
Isst thrilling air scenes conceivable
Fhave been filmed.
Aside from its amazing scenes
5000 feet in mid-air, "The Great Ali
Robbery" tells a dramatic story with
a punch in every scene. The story was
written and directed by Jacques JAG
card, and assisting Lieut.. Locklear are
Francelia Billings, Allan Forrest, Ray
Ripley, Carmen Phillips and several
othe rscrene favorites.
