SURVEY PARTY ON WAY
 7O WORK IN INTERIOR

The geodetic survey party in charge of H. P. Odessey, which has been in Seward since the arrival of the Ala meda, left this morning for Fairbanks where they will engage for part of the summer season in running levels from the interior metropolis to the coast, over the Richardson highway. This work it is believed, is being done in order that estimates can be made as to the probable cost of establish ing an all-year highway across the interior country.
 On the completion of work in the section mentioned the party will re- turn to the coast and establish levels between Seward and Anchorage.
 Three large trucks have been sent to Fairbanks for use of the party in transporting supplies and for other usages. The work will require all year to complete; possibly portion of next season.

FRENCH SCIENTIST HAS
 THEORY 0N RELAT|v|TY

PARIS, May 16.-A new theory on relativity is announced by Professor Paul Painleve, former premier and a noted mathematician, who declares his conception is based on mechanics of broader lines than those developed by Prof. Einstein.
 1My work is to attempt to recon cile the old school springing from Newton's theory of gravitation with the new school emerging from Ein- stein's theory,'' he said.
 q consider Einstein's theory step in the right direction"
 Under the old teachings it was eX- plained that the world whirled thru space on it's axis. Of course this is mere talk for children; no such thing occurs; but such explanation must be given so the ignorant can have a men tai picture of what the universe is like. Neither the earth nor the stars whirl in space"

ever. His selections were popular
airs although two of them were
offered before going to the publishers
Mr.. Brian carries two nlfty girls
who play the pianos while he goes
through with his songs and dances,
and in one selection Mureal Pollack
helps out in a duet where harmony
helps to put the ditty over with a
telling punch. Numerous encores
were demanded and Mr.. Brian bowed
his Acknowledgements and thanked
the audience in a neat little speech;

comedy acts in vaudeville turned up
In Inez Courtney with Sid Keyes and
Starke Patterson in x Personal APP
pearance." Why Miss Courtney re-
sorts to the hard work of dancing
