BATTLESHIP MAIN
KEY TO NAVAL DEFENSE
Not Yet Eliminated by Aircraft in
Opinion OF Army and Naval
Roard

Washington Aug. 22.-ReMits OF
bombing tests OFF the Virginia Capes
from June q to July q have failed
to displace the battleship from its pre-
eminent position as the nations chief
defence at sea.
This is the outstanding conclusion
of the joint board OF the army and
navy. In it report was made public
by Gen. Pershing, the senior member,
and approved by the Secretary Weeks
and Acting Secretary Roosevelt.
The tests, which resulted in the
sinking OF four ex-German warships
by aerial bombs, proved. however
that It has become imperative as a
matter OF national defence to provide
for the maximum possible develop
ment-of avisS-on in both the army and
navy"
The tests proved also, the board
agreed, the necessity for aircraft car
riers of maximum size and speed, for
the development of effective anti
aircraft armament
Instead Of furnishing an economical
instrument of war leading to the aboli
ton OF the batticL.-ip, the development
of aircraft has added to the completely
of naval warfare the report said.
The tests, which were conducted by
the Navy tn the cooperation OF the
Army Air Service, were reported upoi
separately by army and naval boards
OF observers These reports formed the
basis of tie issued statement
The Joint board included Admiral r
f.. Coontz. chief of naval operations
Maior.Gen. w. G. HBan. assistant t
the Chief OF stan; Rear Admiral G. $
! Williams, naval operations; Brig Gen
l Henry Jervey, General staff, and Capt
W. G. Cole, naval operations
The board found that military air
craft when used beyond the radius o
action of shore bases possessed lin
tied assistance to gunnery in the cor
troll of fire, limited assistance in tn
service of information, security, an,
important strategical and tactical qua
tiles in operations of coast defence,

FIGHT P|CTURESAT
 THE R|A[T0 TODAY
Dempsey Carpenter Combat Styled "The Battle of the
 Century"

Georges Carpenter, heavyweight champion of France, and JACK pemp sey, fistic champion of the world, Will rosin their feet at the Rialto theatre this morning at 10 o'clock, and the gong will send them off in the great est fight this country's pugilistic fans have ever seen. Carpenter, the chal- fenger, will enter the ring with the smile of confidence, and the spirit or France backing him and bolsterins his morale.
 Then the fight, "the battle of the century" will get going. Spectators witnessing this great fistic combat will forget for the time that the out come has already been decided: that the verdict has already been reached They twill become so interestd in the great spectacle that they will cheer just as> 90000 others cheered on certain afternon in Jersey City just Ia few months back.
 The Carpentier-D Dempsey fight pic. lures open at the Rialto theatre at 10 o'clock this morning, and they will start on the hour, every 50 minutes during the day.
 Coming to Birmingham with. an un- paralleled box-office record in every city where it has been shown, tho pictures bid fair to break all motion picture attendance records from Birmingham standpoint. For, 1t is something besides a m0tion picture lt is a battle, a combat in which all the world was interested, In which people came from the earth's four corners to buy seats at $50 each in the worlds largest stadium, erected especially for the occasion.
 And now, something that thousands paid $50 admission price and railroad fare to see. Is being offered at the Rialto. starting this morning for just 50 cents. Many who saw the fight kand then viewed the official pictures as produced by Tex Rickard have pronounced the film better even than the fight. for it slows down the ac- ton in spots. ,and shows clearly and vividly each blow struck, and the ef- feet 1t had on the man who re- cefyed if

ADJUSTMENTS uY EsTEIIE HnrHEA HALH
WALTER HAMPDEN. JEFFERSON,
 TO-DAY IN TWO PLAYS

Walter Hampden will be at the Jefferson this afternon in presen- tation of his favorite play, The Serv- ant in the House." and will begin his Shakespearean repertoire with The Merchant of Venice" tonight.
 The discussion about whether "The Merchant of Venice" should be han died as tragedy or comedy is an- swered by Walter Hampden In favor of the latter The distinguished Shakespearean actor says: "The first question to consider Is. How was The Merchant of venice?" done in Shakes peare's time? If Shylock wore a red wig, as researches would seem to in- dicate, and was a fool. we have de- parted far from 1t and Shakespeare knew not what he wrote. On the other hand, there has grown up a stage tradition of a solemn. proud, glorious and very sympathetic figure. That was the Shylock l was brought up on and played until really began to study it. Opposed to that Is the Shylock of revenge and hate. charac- teristics ingrained to such an extent as to lead him to conceive such an atrocious fashion of taking life. First of all. we should try Co understand Shakespeares' motives. The setting for the play Is comedy setting, and the end Is definitely in a comic vein. It is also we'll to realize that The Merchant was written in Shakes
 peare's earlier days, before he was used to handling tragic situations. There is not the bitterness in this play as that in Hamlet Macbeth 'Troilus and Cressida,' for example"

GREENWICH FOLL|ES
 AT THE JEFFERSON

Dancing as 1t Is done in far-of Java is shown by Japonette, the fea- ture dancer with "The Greenwich Nil- lage Follies," which will be seen at the Jefferson for three nights, oe- ginning Thursday, with a matinee on Saturday.
 The costume worn by Miss Japon- cite in the Java number is an exact replica of the one worn by the Java nese palace dancers. No less person than Minister Cramer from the Meth erlands to the United States, and former governor of Java. has de- clared the dance letter perfect, after seeing Miss Japonette render It in New York last winter.
 pleasure trip to the orient brought her to Java, where she saw the palace dance, and she declared that 1t would go well on the Amer ican stage
 That 1t has gone over' is shown by the fact that she has been doing the palace dance on Broadway TOT four seasons and this is the first time in that number of years that she has left tho Rialto. Miss Japonette a1so dances the Tony Sarg Marionette number.
 Miss Japonette looks all the world like a marionette. Even the little strings that give life to the original mannikin are found on Japonette, and as she dances from one side of the stage to the other the elastics travel with her. It Is most realistic dance. so realistic, in fact, that if the program did not say that Ja2on- cite was dancing, one would actually believe that Tony Sarg himself was sitting up in the flys operating vhe strings.

 Washington, December 25.-Al- though the events of the week have made it evident that no action can be taken until after long and per haps embarrassing debate, it seems certain at this time that the four power Pacific treaty, applying to the mainland of Japan as well as to her Pacific islands, will ultimately be ratified by the Senate.
 Conservative senators of both parties frankly declare that if the United States should repudiate an other treaty-especialiy a treaty ne- sotiated and signed in her own capi- tAt--this country would be placed ia an intolerable position before tho world. No effort America might make for world betterment in the fu- ture would be taken seriously by the otheR nationA- In any future foreigH intercourse requiring treaty action.

Cincinnati, December 25.-The Ohio river at this point tonight had reached a stage of 53.5 feet. three fifths of foot above the flood stage and was rising at the rate of one tenth of a foot an hour. W. c. De- vereau, weather forecaster, said the rise would continue at the present rate until tomorrow morning beyond which time he would make no pre- diction. River men predicted the crest would be reached by tomorrow noon. providing no heavy rains fall in the meantime. The Little Miami and several other up-river tribu- taries were reported receding to- night.

the other nations, 1t is argued might easily be justified in demanding thaE the American plenipotentiaries bring with them written assurances from the Senate. or ratifying branch of the government, as well as from the eX- utive or treaty making branch.
 Strange as it may seem in these days of strife and turmoil there are still some senators who place the honor of their country above mera partisan advantage. Therefore, while the democrats may in debate have some pretty bitter things to say to the republicans who wrecked the for eign policy of the Wilson administra- ton, it is generally believed that in the end they will lend sufficient sup port to put the Pacific treaty safely through the surging Senate.
 There is a growing feeling in Washington that no reservations hostile to the views of the American delegation which negotiated the treaty will be successful in the Sen ate. President Harding and Senator Lodge hold, the view that no reserva- tions are necessary to clarify the treaty or to define Americas obli- gations under It. But reservations are to be offered and fought over. and it is certain the democrats will
  debate in order to bring out (for fu- ture political use) what they claim to be Inconsistencies of republican senators whose reservations threw the treaty of Versailles into the realm of national politics and into a presidential campaign.
 The foreign delegates and foreign correspondents in Washington have unquestionably been disturbed by tho incidents of the week, and growing opposition to the American delega= ton as to the exact scope of the compact, Mir. Harding has done everything he could to minimize this particular incident, and has declared with a great deal of reason that after all nothing has happened to change the real Intent and purpose of the treaty. The Presidents position that it is immaterisl whether the treaty Is held to apply to the mainland or Japan or not, Is coincided in by many senators, democrats as well as re- publicans. ~
