bright vaudeville headliner for the first
three DAYS of the week beginning Mon
day. Miss Huff, player of star roles in
several legitimate successes and one OF
the best known leading women known
to American stock, is now making her
initial appearance IN vaudeville and
Judging by the impressions made dur
ing her present tour she is due to be-
come a fixture in this sphere of enter
tainment.
Other notable acts on the bill for the
first hat of the week are Jackson, Tay-

and THE Shimmy Inn," introducing
seven talented dancers; Ray Largay and
Sue Snee in "A1l for Kiss; the Three
Kind1es in a ground and tight wire
acrobatic act; Manning, Feeney and
Knell in fine bundle of comedy en-
titled "I'm-Whose Are Your"
The usual mid-week change of the
Palace program brings vaudeville at
traction for Thursday, Friday and
terest to local theatre goers, inasmuch
| as its star is a New Haven boy who in
a few short months has demonstrated
an amount of ability that already en-
| titles him to be regarded as one of the
stars of vaudeville with strong posi-
bilities of becoming a leading figure
among the ranks of the country's fore
most entertainers. This act is that of
Cliff Navarro and Company, the name
under which young Navarro is known
here in his home town is Cliff Robbins
and he will be recalled by many as TAX

Other offerings are: The Rose Revue,
an exceptionally pretty dancing and
singing act; Klas & Termini in "A
Musical Highba1l''; Burke, Walsh and
Mana in the singing and dancing skit,
They're Peculiar and Toby and Girls,
a dandy little comedy act.
Elaine Hammerstein, one of the most
wholesome stars of the screen, appears
in Greater Than Fame as the picture

there might have been on the part of

England Encouraged,
But Surprised Over

LONDON, July 21.-Shamrock's sue
cess in obtaining two legs on the
Americas cup comes as a cheering
surprise to most people here, as Sir
Thomas Lipton's past failures in
cIined the public. to believe there
was little or no chance for the cup
ever to be seen in England again.
1t is RECALLED that experts here after
the last Gefeat proclaimed the virtual
impossib.lity of any English yacht
winning under the stringent regu-
lations imposed by he deed of gift.
While it is realized that the trophy
by no means is yet won. yesterdays
result encouraged much hope.
The morning newspapers display
nreminentIy the reports of the race,
but the result was received too late
for much comment. The Daily Tele-
graph thinks the victory all the more
remarkable because the Resolute
showed superior to anything ever
sailed in American waters, and be-
cause the weather was of the type
which wrecked the fortunes of every
previous challenger.
while believing hope for Sir
Thomas final success is better Justi-
fed than ever before the Ieiesraph

j. S. COAL CONTROL,
IF OPERATORSEA|
morrow Warming
National Associations Head
Calls Upon Associates to
Increase Output.

Bituminous coal operators were
warned today by j! d. A. Morrow. vice
president of the National Coal Asso-
citation, that their failure to meet the
urgent fuel needs OF the country at
this time would mean continuous gov
eminent control Of the industry.
Mr. Morrow urged immediate in
creased production and cooperation
with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in getting coal moved to the
northwest, New England and upper
New York
The coal industry is at cross
roads" Mr.. Morrow's statement said.
1T will either go forward along the
splendid pathway Of individual en-
terprise' and initiative, or it will find
everlasting governmental regulation
and control The ability of private
enterprise in this business and
private enterprise in the mana cement
of railways is faced with a test of
it's sufficiency.''
Statistics Are Cited.
Mr.. Morrow cited statistics to show
that the northwest is short 5000, 900
tons of coal ordinarily shipped to it
New England and New York state
points also were short on shipments
He referred at length to the plan for
filling the deficiency which the In
terstate Commerce Commission &C
cepted yesterday and which gives
priority in car supply and car move
ment to coal destined for these
points.
Failure would justify federal con-
troll, which would be fastened upon
the coal industry permanently" Mr.
Morrow continued. There will be no
such failure. This effort deserves the
gratitude and assistance of every coal
operator in the United States.
"Whatever inconvenience and sac
rihces may be asked of any operator
to put this program through should
be cheerfully accepted. Every indi-
vidual operator should do his utmost
to comply with the commissions or
der until the necessary increased pro-
duction Is obtained and furnishes
complete relief to the whole situa-
tion.''
A conference of the anthracite
mine commission. named by President
Wilson to determine wage and work.
ing conditions of more than 10000
anthracite coal miners, will be- held
here the latter part of this month,
probably July 81. The commission
concluded it's public hearings at
Scranton. Pa, yesterday.
The conferees before coming to
Washington will make individual ex-
animation and analysis of the pro-
ceedings, testimony and exhibits pre-
scented before the commission by
both parties. Having done that, they
will convene here with the purpose
of making some decision.
