'fTELt ITO THE MARINES" AT TIE
 LIBERTY TONIGHT

Through negotiations with the United States Government and the Mayer studios, life in the United States Marine Corps, has been filmed in what is probably the most elaborate attempt ever made to picture the actual life of great Gov ernment service.
 This was done in Tell It to the Marines" the new epic of the Marine Corps, playing at the Liberty theatre tonight. It was played aboard battle ships and in the Marine barracks, on the field with regular members of the Marine Corps in battle and maneuvers, in romantic story in which notable cast tells the life story of the "sold- fer of the sea-"
 Lon Clancy plays the principal character role in the gigantic produc- tion. Entire Chinese towns were de- stroyed; the whole Pacific fleet CO., operated in some of the most spec tacular scenes of the big picture, and the camera followed the Marine Corps all over the world.
 Several hundred regular Marines and officers take part in the spectacu- lar details on board ship and in action in Manchuria.

while the Navy Department will pro-
pose its 7l-ship construction program
to the Senate naval committee Secre-
tary Wilbur said yesterday he would not
insist upon amendment Of the House
bill proposing Is craft so as to encom-
pass the total number first advancing
by the administration.
However. some additions TO the House
bill may be made in the committee, al
though there lis little prospect that the
Senate will go beyond the limit OF 1o
10 oOO-t cruisers and one aircraft
carrier, approved by the House. AL
ready much opposition has developed 10
even program of this extent
The naval committee continued It's
hearing today on the Dallinger amend
ment to the House bill providing that
8 OF the Is cruisers shall be construct
ed in navy yards, with the other seven
parceled out to the three private plants
now equipped to construct such craft.
NJ p. Alias, legislative representative
for the international Association OF
Machinists. urged retention of this pro-
vision by the Senate. He argued that
the navy yards could construct the
craft cheaper than the private plants
could. and pointed out that there were
more navy yards and arsenals than
there were privately owned shipbuilding
concerns
we feel tina, our friends have been
very liberal with the private Shipyards
in this bill" he added.

Says Tobin Wanted S2sO
The witness declared that TobIn
wanted $3.50 for fixing things up on the
case against Cohn. but agreed later
that $50 q month would be agreeable.
The two marked $40 bills were trans
mitted while Lieuts Hugh H, Groves

scribe to MIR. Kellys contention that it
should not proceed with the case. as the
