A. s. Leyino. scenarist, who tran scribed Jack London's widely read story. Burning Daylight" to the screen script said at the completion of his work that the novel had enough action and material for two or three big pictures.
 ''It seems a shame to use all of this wonderful material in one production" said Levine. 'I can easily get two big pictures out of Burning Daylight !"
 But C. F. Shurtleff, president of the producing firm bearing his name would not hear of splitting the story. He was agreeable to eliminating un- important portions of the book, but insisted that one big, smashing feature he made of Burning Daylight" The picture is a realistic version of Lon dons story and loses nothing in the filming. Mr. DeVino introduces a new 1 character in the story, Lucille; and around this New York society girl and adventures romance and intrigue are woven. Gertrude Astor as Lucille wears some stunning gowns and sport clothes and these. together with her striking appearance, give the charac- ter an important place in the cast. 1 Burning Daylight" will be present ed at Mauk's Columbia theater today and tonight

CITY AUTHORIZES SALE IF LAND FUR
 NEW UNION DEPOT

Sale of city property at Seventh avenue and Harrison street to the Arizona Eastern and Santa Fe rail- roads, to be used by them as a site for their new $400,000 union station, is authorized fin an ordinance recent ly passed by the city commission. The action was taken at the solicitation of tho railroads who asked that pro- visions for the sale be made that they might proceed with preliminary plans preparatory to actual construction work, it was announced.
 The property includes five lots now used by the city as corral. It in- cludes lots one and two in block one and lots one two and three in block two of Colder Woods addition to the city of Phoenix.
 Actual sale of the property 10 the railroads has not yet been consum- mated. city officials declared yester- day, but passage of the ordinance will make it possible for the city to legally sell the lots at any time.
 The five lots owned by the city are only small part of the property that the railroads must eventually attain before construction work on the union station is started. A majority of the property In the proposed site of the structure is held by individuals.
 Actual construction work has been held up. it is believed, because of the inability of the two railroads to se- cure lands needed at what they re- garded as reasonable figures. Rumor was current on the streets recently that condemnation processes were un- der consideration, but the railroads are reluctant to institute this means be- cause of the length of time required, it was officially announced a few days ago.
 With the city taking the initiative in the sale of property. however, it is eX- pected that other land owners in the proposed site will more readily consent to the sale of their lots.
 That work on the new depot will be started as soon as the necessary prop erty is acquired by the railroads was the belief expressed by some of the city officials yesterday. The railroads have been quietly proceeding with the plans for the past several weeks. 1t be- came known yesterday.

Colonel & L. Brengle, international evangelist of the Salvation Army, will conduct a weeks special meetings at the Salvation Army hall here, begin ming next Tuesday night at 8 o'clock. All members of all churches in the city, as we'll as all other people in the city, are invited to attend.
 Colonel Brengles work in the Saliva ton Army has been world wide. He has crossed the Atlantic ocean 19 times on his mission, and once went around the world on an evangelistic tour. He has worked in Britain. France. SwitZ- erland. Holland, Germany. Russia and the Scandinavian countries and has written a number of books. His serv- ices are not confined to the Salvation Army, as he is eagerly sought by churches, theological schools and sum mer assemblies.
 For five summers Colonel Brengle was associated with Bishop Oldham and Wilson in their great Ocean Grove assembly in New Jersey. Dr. Wilbur Chapman asked him to accompany him on his last tour in Australia The colonel was commissioned for world wide evangelical work by General Booth, founder of the Salvation Army, with which he first became connected in Boston 35 years ago.
 A man who has travelled extensively in America and Europe, and who knows the progress of evangelism. re- gently remarked:
 T have heard many great evangel- ists of recent times, but Colonel Bren- gle, the Salvation Army's international evangelist, is no whit behind the great est of them. He combines the biblical scholarship of Torrey and the sim plicity of pr. A. T. Pierson with the fervor of Paul Rader, and all without the slightest touch of sensationalism People who miss hearing him will miss the opportunity of life time.'
