ILIPIVO I UND
ROW LOOMS

Henry l.. Stimson. newly ap-
pointed governor general Of the
Philippine Islands faced the first
problem OF his administration here
today in connection with the bill
introduced last week BY Represen-
tative Kiess (R.) Pennsylvania, to
remove a portion of the insular
customs receipts from the 1uris-
election of the Philippine legislature.
1t was revealed that the support
of the administration would be
given to the Kiess bill. which has
for several years been vigorously
opposed by the Philippine inde-
pendence advocates.
Al modification Of a bill previ-
ously presented in the Senate by
senator Bingham Rs1 Connecticut,
the present bill would take Slzo,-
900 from the general fund Of the
Philippine legislature and make ~
available for Congressional appro-
priation for seven civilian aids for
the Governor General. Part Of the
fund also would be used to in.
crease the salaries Of thirteen APP
pointed officers Of the insular
government, including that Of the
Governor general
The Filipinos are willing to au-
thorize the expenditure from their
own funds, and have already passed
q bill authorizing the appropria-
ton; but they are unwilling TO
sanction the intended encroach-
ment upon Filipino fiscal autonomy
by making the amount available
for the disposal Of Congress. &.

FALL MAY CO ON
TRIAL ALONE

The Teapot Dome oil conspiracy
trial OF Harry F. Sinclair and Albert
B. Fall today faced the possibility
OF an almost unlimited extension OF
its already many ramifications.
Unless Fall is able to appear IN
court with the co-defendant Sinclair

trial, the prosecution will take
steps to try Sinclair alone, Atlee

would be necessary for Fall when
his condition improves to the extent
that he can appear in court.
Falls attorneys asked that the

June. The Government protested,
declaring that already too much
time has been taken up in this case.

Theatre thought of Miss Brews- ter's Millions" last night. It is Bebe Daniels first film for Para mount since having been given her own comedy unit And it is only fair to say that they've done right by our Bebe. Clarence Badger directed, with Warner Baxter and Ford Sterling featured in the two leading male roles.
 Bebe has the faculty of taking you with her when she travels. In other words, when you see her aa a little extra girl riding through the streets of Hollywood on the back of a mule-you're going to get just the same kind of thrill she did. And when she visits tho various studios looking for work you're going to be standing right behind looking over her shoulder.
 The feature is shown again to- night.

COMMUNITY HAS
 SECOND GREEN XMAS IN YEARS
Mild Weather Character izes Christmas Here
 Orderly Celebration

Juneau this year had it's second green Christmas on record since the establishment in l916 of the regular U s. Weather Bureau sta- ton. The other time was in 1925.
 On all of the Christmas days in the other ten years in that period, there has been snow on the ground. Monday night and last night a trace of snow fell but it was mixed with rain and none of it remained on the ground. The thermometer registered 34' above zero at am. yesterday and the highest mark reached was 36e
 Generally it was an orderly Christmas. Official records show there were less than a dozen ar rests of the too bibulonsly in- elined over Monday night and Tuesday, most of them made being booked as ID and D." There were four exeeptions-Dan White, Daisy Mckinley, Peter King and Anna White-in addition to being charged with possession of liquor also pleaded guilty before Judge F. A. Boyle today 10 assault and battery. The judge postponed imposition of sentence a few days.
 It was a very pleasant celebra- tion. a fine Christmas and one that was observed in the proper way by tho citizens of Juneau" declared U. s. Marshal Albert White. Our office made but four arrests which speaks well for the community" he added
 The Christmas masses at Holy Trinity Cathedral and Catholic church Monday at midnight, were well attended. Both theatres re- port big Christmas patronage.

HARNessEo DRAMA

What is known in tho trade as the talking trailer" q short sound film advertising forthcoming talking picture, has been develop Ing lately into q new form Of screen drama. Instead of merely having an actor tell the audience about the next attraction and pos sibly introduce the principal mem bcrs of the cast or show a sample talking scene from the neW pie ture, the latest trailers ara one reel playlets in themselves Their purpose still is to advertise the forthcoming attraction, but the ad yertising is woven into an amusing or melodramatic sketch.
 An example is the one-reel court room sketch written by William Bloeeher to advertise Pauline Frederick first taking picture Miss Frederick and other members Of the cast of "0n Trial" appeai in the scene, and before the prose cutting attorney has finished wlth them they have admitted under oath their connection with se;. sational murder case which, they testify with seeming reluctance will be very entertainingly solved "at this theatre next week

Modern Siluer Fits ALI
 Occasions

One of the surest ways to keep friction out the home, so psycholo- gists tell us, is to keep company manners" in it.
 Perhaps learned folks like the psychologists don't put if quite as simply as all that, but it's what they mean just the same. Let the mem bers of the family just treat each other with he same courtesy and consideration that they extend to guests of the household, they say and discord is gone forever.
 ] Possibly it is for some such rea- son that modern housekeepers no longer swathe the family silver in layers of flannel and put it away to be taken out and used only for the "company dinner" Nowadays. the solid silver makes its appearance daily, whether or not there are guests at the family board. If one has beautiful things, the modern theory is, why not enjoy them all the time instead of just once in awhile? Surely to live in artistic and attractive surroundings has a beneficial effect upon everyone in the home, and helps to sustain that desirable atmosphere that prevails when company is in the house.
 l And the happy thing about using one's good silver every day is that constant usage can't do it the least bit of harm. Putting the best china and glass on the table always has in Ii just a little element of risk. IL is % painfully easy to chip delicate plates, or to knock of the slender handles of cups, while as for the 6laesWare,-wel1, is there anything more utterly final than dropping 2 cfystal goblet on the hoor9
 Handling the silver. however. is quite a different matter. The only thing that can happen when silver fork slips accidentally to the floor, } So they say, is that unexpected com- pany is apt to appear at dinner fimel Of course, occasionally, some piece of sterling may receive an un- fortunate dent or scratch, but all that means is trip to the jeweler, where the damage can be repaired ! and the article re6nished like new
 Indeed, silversmiths declare that she more sterling is used, the better if can De kept. When 1t is pe. away and used on special occasions, each tine it is taken out it is generally found to be tarnishcd and in need ~&---ah noliahin9 he{ofe il ean laks

The Art Of Table Settnrtq

lof progress which American civili- zs.tion has reached in all depart ments of life, modern American sil- versmiths are producing wealth of design and standard of artisanship in working out those designs un- paralleled in the history of solid silver. Moreover, modern table eti- quette has been developed to an exceedingly fine point, so that today there is specialized utensil or ap- pointment for every kind of food land every need. Certain customs in connection with table settings have become standardized, SO that the modern hostess has only to follow these customs to rest assured that the appointments of her table are correct in every detail A glance at the photographs shows the accepted settings for the four most common occasions of American life-breakfast, luncLeon, tea and dinner.
 The breakfast table iS | simple affair, made effective by tho krace- ful coffee service, the restrained beauty of such silver pieces as the fruit dish and bread tray, and the silver.
 The tail, slender coffee urn, of course, with its matching sugar bowl and cream pitcher, are placed at the right of the hostess. The cups also are here, ready for ser- vice, with a silver spoon placed on each saucer. Then, when the coffee IS poured, the waitress will carry 2 cup to each person
 The flat silver for the Individual service usually consists of knife and fork, two spoons-one for cereal and one for fruit-placed at the right of the knife, and { butter sprcader laid on the butter plate. If an extra knife Is needed for fruit, that may be added. The silver pep per and salt shakers are placed at the corners of the table, within easy reach.
 Sometimes the hostess may pre- fer to send q breakfast tray to her guests room, in which case the service consists of the silver coffee lpot, sugar and creamer. fruit dish, the necessary knives, forks and |spoons. pepper and salt shakers and a silver covered dish to keep food |hot.
 Probably ho form of ertertain- ment is quite so popular among American women as the bridge luncheon.
 Here the menu usually consists ol bouillon. an entree, salad, dessert and fcoffee.
 When the guests assemble fn tht dining room, they find the table sci with a silver bowl of flowers as centerpiece, and at each place a ser vice plate with the napkin laid upon t. At the. left of the plate Is laid la fork for the entrec and one fol

LODGE SEES WORLD
 ADRIFT IN TWENTY

LONDON, Dec. 2i Gen erally accepted notions of the finite history of the world have received jar with the suggestion recent ly made by Sir Oliver Lodge in the course of an address to the Faraday Society at the Royal Institute, that the world had no beginning and will have no end.
 "The present state of phy- sics leads one to change ones views very often. I may be wrong, but that is my view"
 This theory, says many scientists, if proved correct, would involve the entire re- construction of many branch es of the sciences.

PARIS, Dee. zo.-The rush of young women, some of them still inth cir teens, to enroll in the ra- dlology classes of the Women's Technical Information school here reflects the influence of a noted radiologist, Madame Curie, on her eountry-women.
 More than a score of students tax the capacity of the radiology laboratory, which aims to train W m Il for practical scientific work.
 Madame Curie herself, while not connected with the school, is now watching developments of the sci entists there with keen interest. The development of trained women capable of assisting in the practi- cal application of discoveries in the radium field is one of Madame Curie's enthusiasms.
 The school has classes in elee- trical installation and theory, ana lytical chemistry, different phases of industrial art, mechanical draft- ing and technical secretarial work.
 Students attend the school for two years or less and receive di- plamas signed by the French min ister of public instruction. Their names are published in the French official journal when tn ey are graduated. A group of influential patrons of the school assists in placing the women in industry.

NJ. s. Dur ban at Santa Barbara thought the royal officer was attending house party in Monticello.
 This became known shortly before the ship sailed for the Bermuda Is- lands. The officer told newspaper men that the prince had asked pers mission to go to Hollywood, but the request was denied. Later he asked and obtained permission to attend a two-day house party at Montecito. fashionable Santa Barbara suburb, the officer said.
