REAL MONTE CARLO SEEN IN ENEMIES OF WOMEN"

Wherever men and women love to flirt with the goddess of chance, the name Monte Carlo is one to conjure with. Famed the world over as the most fashionable gambling resort in existence, Monte Carlo is to most Americans, however, just a name Few persons in this country, out side the wealthy classes, have been privileged to come into actual con- tact with this famous old world playground. Not even in motion pie lures during the last seven years have they been privileged to see Monte Carlo in anything but replica
 In The Enemies of Women" Cos mOpolitan Productions new super feature at the Liberty theatre to- night the public will have the oppor- said to be the most striking scenes ever made or this world-famous re- sort. In the popular romance by Vicente Blasco Ibanez, Monte Carlo and it's renowned Casino play pro- ninent part. For this reason Cos mopolitan Productions sent the en- tire company making the picture to the resort to get the last touch in atmosphere It was not until Ibanez himself had arranged matters with the authorities at the Casino, how ever, that "shots" of it could be made. The resultant scenes of Monte Carlo with it's Casino and beautiful Terrace are said to be the most beautiful in detail that have ever been photographed.
 Monte Carlo, which is situated in Monaco, the smallest principality in the world, is believed by many to be most picturesque spot along the beautiful Riviera. The scenery is incompatible for it's beauty, includ. ing steep mountain heights, winding roads and gorgeous view of the
 
 Mediterranean which Monte Carlo overlooks. Despite it's natural beau ty, however, Monte Carlo owes most of it's fame to the fickle wheel of chance. The largest in any place in the world, and anyone may "try his luck" there except the natives of Monaco, who are forbidden to play The town of Monte Carlo it self was founded in 1156, and the Casino has been utilized as a gam ing resort since it's foundation ir 1861, at which time it was leased for fifty years to Francois Blanc Later it's control passed to a joint stock company which now operates it and which has obtained an exten sion of it's concessions to 1947.

HIGH COST COAL
 IN BRITAIN ISLE
 HURTS STEEL BIZ
(Ry Associated pressl


 LEEDS, England, Mar. 10.-British steel manufacturers have found diff ficulty in selling steel in their own territory, India, because they have been outbid by the Germans and Bel gians. it was announced here by A. M. Samuel, parliamentary secretary to the Department for Overseas Trade. ad- dressing the Leeds Chamber of Com merce
 The situation which brought this about, said MT Samuel, was the high price of coal The price of steel, which was largely dependent on the price of coal, was so high today that it paid to import steel from abroad. Two or three shillings per ton off the price of coal he suggested, would make all the difference to the prosperity of British trade. and the existing high price of coal was doing harm which extended much farther than to the 100000 men who were out of work in the coal fields.
 MT. Samuel, however, was quite op- timistic as to the future for British trade generally. With the exception of coal. steel and shipping, he believ- cd that the clouds of trade were breaking, and that there would be reawakening of prosperity for all, and particularly the workingman. With about 1,250,000 men unemployed there whole policy of existing government ran the motive of getting the people back to work He could see in trade today a greater spirit of confidence.
