 ing Chance" a magnifcently picturzed version of Robert w. Chambers great est novel. "The Fighting Chance" is the attraction at the Strand theatre this week, and in it's first two days it has won the unqualified approval of critics and the public alike.
 Robert w. Chambers is known as the greatest delineator of the society sets of New York writing. In "The Fighting Chance" he chose the Long Island crowd of hard-living pleasure seekers, the idle rich. But from this set he has chosen ! some of the worth while people that l leaven it, and as picturized on the screen trey are striking examples of good Americans.
 "The Fighting Chance has been staged with elegance and the finish )ckaracterzing all Paramount-Artcraft pictures. and the cast is an excellent one. including such prominent players 1 as Conrad Nagel, Anna Q.

 and that they could get no mail delivered, negro residents of a street extending to the Tidewater car line between Sixty fourth and Sixty-ffth streets presented a petition to the City Commission yester- day, praying that some official desgna- ton might be given the thoroughfare. The petition stated that a Methods. l church and parsonage had recently been l erected on the street and that it was inn possible to give their proper location. The commission instructed Fred G.

AMENDMENTS DESTRUCTIVE

Dealing with the subject of amend ments and reservations, the report re- iterates that amendments are destruc- tive to the pact and emphasizes that only interpretative reservations should be permitted.
 Another report suggests that the election of the President of the United States and his inauguration be brought nearer together, and that the short session of the old Congress be aban- doned.
 The interval between the election and inauguration of a President. this re. port declares, is serious evil. fraught with much danger, because, if an ad- ministration is discredited by a popu- lar vote of want of confidence, the prestige of the government at home an1 abroad is weakened and there is dan ger of humiliation and disaster to the republic" The report does not rec ommend any other date for the elec- tion or the inauguration.
 Recommendation that the making of rules for the conduct of aviation be held in abeyance until airplanes be- come more numerous Is set forth in another report.
