THEATRES
Monday at the Ditmas

If you write love letters to a girl,
always date your letters. Otherwise,
they nay serve a purpose that Is
inspired by anything but fove. This
Is the moral gaind from the expert
ence of Julian Rolfe, played by Will
liam T. Carleton in The Law and
the Woman" a new Paramount pic
ture starring Betty Compson coming
to the Ditmas theatre Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday.
In this screen adaptation of Clyde
Fitch's play. Nj. Carleton plays the
role of the husband who IS accused
of the murder of his young ward,
who has just been married to an
INSCRIPTIONS woman with whom
Rolfe had been infatuated some
years before. The browning blow in
the evidence against the innocent
man, is a series of undated letters
claimed by the woman to have been
received frcm Rolfe just before the
murder, thus pointing to jealousy
as the motive for the alleged MUIR
der.
Betty Compson plays the role of
the wife, who, after her husbands
conviction. wrings from the other
woman the secret of the real crimi-
nal. How she does this and the
startling results constitute n OF
the cleverest and most interesting
dramas in the history of the screen.
The picture was directed by Pen
rhyn Stanlews.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 5.-Ac-
cording to members of the commit
tee in charge of the Republican out
ing to Holly Park next Wed
nesday, plans for the event are be-
ing completed rapidly and the pres
ence of about fifteen hundred per-
sons seems assured, provided the
weather is fair. Over 1000 tickets
have been disposed of already. New
Brunswick expects to send from Ave
to six hundred people, Perth Amboy
about the same number, and the re-
mainder of the county will probably
account for another five hundred.
The staff of speakers may pos
sibly be augmented by the presence
of George l.. Record, candidate for
United States senate in opposition
to Senator Joseph Frelinghuysen, 1t
was learned here this morning
Other speakers will include Senator

Monday at Crescent

A welcome screen visitor next
Monday and Tuesday will be Dustin
Farnum. who again is a Fox star
and one of magnetic power. He is
to appear at Crescent theatre in his
latest picture, entitled Iron to
Gold" based on a story by George
Owen Baxter and dealing with life
in small western mining town. Pret-
ty Margaret Marsh is his leading
woman.
Dustin Farnum, gifted with fine
histrionic talents is an actor of the
stalwart, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
sort, whose presence appeals to an
audience the moment he appears.
His record on the screen and on
the stage prior to entering pictures,
is an enviable one.
In Iron to Cold the star enacts
the role of a s%ingularly attractive
outlaw-in brief, an outlaw who is
not a criminal, but a man bounded
by the law u~njustly. And through
the tale runs a romance as delight
|ful as the plot is thrilling. There
Is some delicious comedy in the
picture.

UNION FREEHOLDERS
ACT ON TUNNEL SURVEY

ELIZABETH, Aug. 5:-An appro-
-fSiatipn of $4,000 for a survey in
connection with the proposed new
bridge or tunnel between this city
and Staten Island was made by the
Board of Freeholders under author
ity created by the last Legislature.
New York City Is soon expected to
vote for a similar amount as its
tunnel committee Of the Board of
Estimate has made soundings here
and is reported as favorable to the
d py~a.-Statea Island, through Bor-
ough President Van Name and its
Chamber of Commerce, already have
Endorsed the project. 1t Is regarded
likely that a tunnel will be the ulti-
mate outcome of the agitation as the
New York authorities incline to this
mode, of connection between the two
cities.
The board voted to give to Chap
man & McCloud of this city the con-
tract for constructing a new road
way of sheet asphalt on a concrete
base in Salem road, Liberty avenue
and Hillside avenue from Morris
avenue, Union township. to North
Broad street, Hillside, at $167,136.-
40. The total length is 10000 feet.
Having received word from New
Providence officials that all objec-
tions had been removed, the free
holders voted to go ahead with the
work Of reconstructing Springfield
avenue. New Providence, from Salt
Brook to Snyder avenue at a cost of
$121,945, the contract going to John
L. Bachman, Inc. of Linden. The
board approved a contract for the

gas pipe between the Orders of the

since the ship will probably follow
the same course, Deep mystery sur
rounds the reason for tears, but 1t
is whispered that there are still a
large number of broken hearts

FRENCH PLAN
DRASTIC MOVE
On Penalties Against Ger
many, But No Military Ac-
ton Involved

PARIS. Aug. 5 (By The Associat-
ed Press):-The French government
today ordered into effect the penal
ties against Germany for failure to
paw in full the instalments on the
pre-war debts to French citizens.
The penalties concern German
properties sequested in france. Ger
tain payments hat were being made
to Germans on account of war losses
are suspended in Alsace and Lor-
raine as are also the indemnities
under the arbitration agreements
reached between France and Ger
many in August and September 1921.
No military action is involved.
At the same time the general
mortgage on Germany held by the
Allies under the peace treaty must
come into play-the levy of 26 per
cent on capital of German industrial
corporations. the exploitation. even
the cession, Of government mines
and the forests on the left bank OF
the Rhine and other matters.
If Germany declines to submit TO
the proposed measures or raises diff
ficulties to them. her absolute inten-
ton to default will be considered to
have been established beyond doubt
and the Allies will have no option
but to apply coercion after the expi-
ration of the delay fixed. in the
Rhineland and the Ruhr notably by
the seizure of the railroads.
In that e~ventuality the French
government. considering these mea-
sures of control as Indispensable,
would, 1t is understood, act forth
with.
These are said to be the main lines
of NJ. Poincare's plan. 1t is pointed
out that this plan does not touch
the question of interallied debts,
the problems arising from this ques-
ton possibly being considered too
closely bound up with the question
of PREPARATIONS and necessitating
separate deliberations.

All this time his best girl (Eva
