DYNAMITE ALLEN AT
REX THEATER TODAY

George Walsh stirred big audiences
to enthusiasm yesterday at the lex
theater( where he opened two days
engagement in his latest William Fox
production, entitled Dynamite Al
lem" This story was written by
Thomas f.. Fallon, the author of sew
eral well-know Fox successes, and
was directed by that veteran OF the
megaphone, Dell Henderson.
The applause that attended the
showing of the picture here was
convincing evidence not only or
Walsh's popularity, but of the win
ming quality OF the stirring tale or
the mining region of Pennsylvania.
Walsh, as the hero, is engaged in
an attempt to clear his father or
charge Of murder, and as result IS
himself beset with all sorts OF diff
culties. The entire production
abounds in thrills and sensational
features which will be appreciated
even the most blase. There are
many Stirring situations and
sprinkling ;Of comedy. The picture
is clean and wholesome throughout,
one which should afford anyone
thoroughly enjoyable evening. "A
cast that does excellent work includes
Edna Murphy. Dorothy Allen, Byron
Douglas and J. Thornton Baston.
Will Rogers has another tramp
role. Everyone who saw his "Jubilo'
knows with what fidelity. humor and
human-ness he depicts the American
hobo and will want to see him as the
tramp in IAN Unwilling Hero" his
latest Goldwyn photoplay which
comes to Grand theater beginning to-
night. I'M this filnN Rogers is first,
last and always real, honest speci-
men of the American tramp. his aver
sion to work equalled only by his
aversion to being forced to remain in
any one locality more than few days
at time.
-, IAN Unwilling Hero is based upon
an o. Henry story. "Whistling Dicks
Christmas Stocking" and possesses
all the humor, unexpectedness and
charm which o. Henry put into that
tale. 1t was directed by Clarence
Badger who has had charge for Gold
wyn of all of the Will Rogers photo
plays. Chief in the supporting COM
pany are Molly Malone, John Bow
..rs, Mex Cogley, Darrell Foss and Ed.
Kimball.

DEMOCRATS ANGER
ROCKAWAY BOARD
Celebration Over Roadway
Across the Bay Turned Into
Political Rally.

While there is unaninity among the
citizens of the Rockaways as regards
the benefits TO be derived from the
Cross Bay road from Brooklyn TO the
sea, there developed last night O wide
difference OF opinion as to who. other
than Mayor Hylan and Maurice Con-
molly, Borough President of Queens. will
derive any benefit from the ceremonies
yesterday marking the driving OF the
first spile on the proposed highway.
Certain members OF the Rockaway
Beach Board of Trade-who. by the
way. took no part in the ceremonies
said last night that what had been
planned as 4 grand nonpartisan civic
event had been turned into Demo-
cratic rally for Mayor Hylan and Bor-
ough President Connolly. David Isen-
berg, a member of the board, who was
selected as chairman OF a committee to
arrange for a celebration attending the
actual beginning of work on the high
way, denounced the ceremonies of yes
terday as "a political move
"It looks to u.s." he added, "as though
II were arranged purely as a demonstra-
ton for Hylan and Connolly. We wanted
10 have a cornerstone and to make the
event one that long would be remem-
bered in the Rockaways, but It was
taken out of our hands, although the
Rockaway Beach Board of Trade had
been fathering the project for more than
twenty years, and was pushed through
in few days. We, of course. would
not become parties to any such political
move. And the funny. part of 1t all is
that they drove the spite many feet

A heet of motorcycles with armed

cargoes has been put in service by the
Post Offlce Department as a result OF
the investigation by Postmaster General
Hays of the s1.500,000 mail robbery
which occurred Monday night under the
noses of the New York police.
1t is admitted that the robbery could
not have occurred il the local post Of

laid down by Postmaster General Hays.
particularly those rules which apply to
the arming of chaffeurs driving mail
trucks carrying registered mail. One OF
the purposes of the visit OF Assistant
Postmaster General Glover Is TO fix the
blame for the failure to put such
guard on the truck which was held up
and robbed here.
In the future there viii be but two
keys issued-one to the superintendent
in charge of the transportation of mails
at the delivery station and the other in
the hands OF a responsible official at the
receiving station. This. it is hoped. will
eliminate any possibility OF n chauffeur

who had been employed temporarily in
the City Hall station during the war.
Men who worked extra even after the
armistice will be checked up and close
watch will be kept on their movements.
Havernack, driver of the truck in the
robbery, was accompanied all day by in
spectors, who even went home with him
to his meals and again last night when
he was relieved for the day.
Havernack was put through a long
grill at the Post Office yesterday, but he
failed to aid In the identification of the
men who robbed his car. He said he had

suffered nervous breakdown as re-
suit Of his experience at the hands Of the
armed mail bandits, but insisted that the
first numbers on the green Cleveland
car from which the highwaymen had
jumped to his truck were 200. Taking
these numbers as clue, the authorities
have sought to learn the identity Of the
owner of the car.
They did so by a process of elimina-
tion and announced last night that they
had in mind a former postal employee
known to own a Cleveland car.

Office Department that the Job was of

ure proposed would have had the effect
probably of causing many of the appli-
cations to be rejected, or at least OF
delaying action for long periods.
Mr.. Blair then determined. II devel-
oped to-day. that he would slash away
red tape Of every kind in order that
assurance of promptness given brewers
seeking permits might be fulfilled. Legal
advisers of the Treasury said to-day
that breweries. IL they had elected to
do so. could have gone forward long
ago with their plans for making real
beer for sale on physicians prescrip-
tions without fear of being stopped by
the Treasury. 1t was explained that
the brewers within their legal rights,
after the opinion of former Attorney
General Palmer became public last
March, could have successfully forced
the issue at that time and would have
been upheld in any court where the
Government might have tried to resist
a mandamus proceeding.
In view of these circumstances. Of
ficials declared to-day, higher officials OF
the Treasury recognized the fact that
brewers should be allowed to dispose
OF the large stocks OF real beer they
have accumulated at their plants un-
der the new permits to be granted for
tho manufacture OF alcoholic malt
liquors. Several million dollars loss
would be suffered by the breweries,
N was said. by "a ruling forbidding
sale of real beer now manufactured.

The project for the celebration. Mr.
lsenberg explained, first came up at
the board meeting last Tuesday night.
Certain members said they had been in
formed by Borough President Connolly
that the first spilo would be driven on
Saturday. but the sense OF the meeting
was that the ceremonies should not take
place until after election. But after the
meeting adjourned there was another
gathering. at which certain Democratic
leaders Of the Rockaways had the upper
hand, and the machinery was set in
motion for yesterdays ceremonies.
William II. Reynolds and Andrew j.
Kenny. the latter former president of
the Democratic Club OF Rockaway
Beach. were in charge OF the arrange
ments. which resulted in 200 automobiles
mobilizing yesterday morning at Rock
away Park. AS each machine arrived
the owner or driver was given political
poster containing the photograph OF Mr..
Connolly. who Ia a candidate for reelec-
ton. 1t also was noticed that all the
Curran and other coalition posters
throughout the Rockaways had been
supplanted with Hylan and Connolly
placards.
The ceremonies opened with q parade,
which was such q success that 1t was
continued four miles beyond the sched-
uled route. The column ives headed by
the band Of the Street Cleaning Depart
ment and the Police Glee Club. -Four
city machines were noted in the parade.
Ore huge banner that was carried In
front OF the cars in which rode Mr. Con-
molly and the members of his staff said:
These are the men who made this cross
bay road possible" Buttons were dis
tributed all along the line containing
the following inscription: For Connolly
and Progress"
When the column reached Sixtieth
street on the return. Mr.. Kenny, the
grand marshal, called halt. At that
point reviewing stand had been erected.
from which Grover Whalen. Commits
sioner of Plant and Structures, was intro
duced to a crowd Of $500 persons as the
Mayors representative. Mr.. Whalen said
the people should keep Connolly in Of
fice.'' The Commissioner promised a
steady stream of jitney buses on the
highway when it Is completed.

troduced next. He said he did not wish
