ANOTHER PLOT AGAINST
 RIVERA IS FRUSTRATED
Several Arrests Made For Alleged Conspiracy Against Spanish
 Dictator

Hendaye, Franco-Spanish Border, Dec. R>-Another plot against General Primo de Rivera, Spanish military dictator, is reported to have been discovered and frustrated.
 Early Wednesday morning great activity in Madrid police circles at- tracted the attention of night work CTS. Afterward a number of cab- met ministers gathered at Primo de Rivera's office in the ministry of war.
 A large body of secret service men went to the suburb of Vallecas returning to headquarters with three prisoners.
 The police refused to talk, but 1t is understood the arrested persons included Elnegro, suspected of con- nection with the assassination in 1923 of Cardinal Soldevilla Y Rom ero, archbishop of Saragossa. An other is said to be 8 chemist known for his anarchistic sympathies. This man is reported to have manufactured a number of bombs. Official silence prevents verifica- ton of the reports, but 1t is said the plot was extensive and was discover ed through informers, who declared the plotters intended to attempt the assassination of Primo de Rivera and others. King Alfonso is absent from Madrid at present.
 It is thought the police will with hold information and forbid publi' cation of news regarding the plot until all the consnirators are cap tured. Two of the plotters known to the police escaped, and a nation rwide search for then is under way

 His 19 year old sister, Genevieve. who delivered the chicken to the jail yesterday afternoon and was later arrested after she had barri- caded herself in her home, was held under s25,000 bail. Assistant District Attorney Robert T. Bush- nell said he would ask the district court today to hold her for the grand jury on charges of attempt ing to aid prisoner to escape, a felony punishable by 10 years im- prisonment.
 The assistant district attorney expressed opinion that the girl, who was said to have confessed that she took the pistol to the jail with the intention that it should be used by her brother to make his escape. was merely the tool of other mem- bers of the gang implicated in the robbery for which Gedzium is awaiting the death sentence.

FILM SHOWS HAREM
SCENE IN COLORS
BEAUTIFUL GIRLS OF ALL MA
TIONS GATHERED FOR CHS
SUPREME MOMENT"

cloves of All Nations" is what
Director George Fitzmaurice termed
the bevy fbeauties who decorate
the harem sequence which, repro
duced in full natural color, serves as
the opening chapter for the Samuel
Goldwyn production, Ellis Supreme
Moment"
Preceding on the knowledge that
Oriental potentates who went in for
harem collections picked representa-
tive beauties of every race and cline,
Fitzmaurice combed Hollywood for
the perfect beauty from every gen.
eral subdivisio nof the human family.
He succeeded in assembling a group
of dozen girls whom he believes
are perfect types of the Latin, Slav,
Morse, Teutonic, Anglo-Saxon, Gel
tic, Monaghan and other racial
groups.
BY photographing in natural color
the episode in which these beauties
appear he has ben able to present
fair-haired, blue-eyed daughters of
the North, authenticated colleens,
raven-tressed and sloe-eyed Latin
beauties, and olive-skinned Mongo-
liam girls in characteristic postures,
made more beautiful by the use of
color which distinguishes their va
rious races.
The harem episode is stage play
which serves as an introduction for
Blanche Sweet, who is featured with
Ronald Colman in this Goldwyn-Fitz-
maurice picture which First National
is releasing.
No reports of temperamental
clashes are recorded in the filming
of "The Loves of All Nations" with
the exception of cases of Klieg eyes
with which nearly every beauty was
afflicted.
The picture will be shown at the
Grand Theatre next Thursday, June
3rd.
