-------------------- THE GAY DECElVER"
 AT PALACE TONIGHT

"The Gay Deceiyer," from the stage success graoed with tho tai ent and distinction of Leo D:trich- stein, may safely be said C sur pass anything in the previous if f, rts of this film creator. This picture is at the Palace .onigh+.
 With Lew Cody in the 'itie anli leading role, and with a cast in cluding Carmel Myers, Dorothy Phillips, Roy Darcy, Malcolm McGregor and this charming lew, conner, Marcellne Day, "The ray Deceiver," offers a generous am pie of sincere and sophisticated entertainment that the discrimi hating theatre-goer cannot afford to overlook.
 A simple story, this, as all good motion picture stories are. It is laid in a background of Par.s ana France. It concerns a man who discovers at the heydey of a great stage career, when the world is his oyster, that there comes time in every mans fife when he isn't the man he used to be, that there are certain. advan. tages in a home, a fireside and d faithful and loyal wife that cannot be offset by the adulation of the general public, nor the fickl, 1e, votion of will-o'-the wisp ladies whose love is directed toward the achievement "a { h CT than the achiever.
 There are two love stories in 'sThe Gay Deceiver" One is the love of man and wife who had drifted apart, whose separation had grown to 19 years before they dis covered that their original belief that they were meant for each other was correct.
 The other is story of roman tic young love, with the daughter of "The Gay Deceiyer," one of the characters.

WALLACE BEERY MAY
 FLY, DAWN-DUSK RACE

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, July 10.- Wallace Beery, screen comedian and aviation enthusiast, plans to enter a monoplane in the trans continental dawn-to-dusk flight which is to be a part of the na. tional air meet in Los Angeles next September.
 He hopes to span the New York to Los Angeles route in 16 hours or better, using a specially built two-seater open monoplane with accommodations for himself and pilot.
 The project as yet is tentative dependent on motion picture pro duction schedules and other fac tors which might interfere, but Beery is enthusiastic. He does most of his travelling now in a speedy biplane, and at the mo .ment he discussed the dawn-to dusk project between scenes on location about 200 miles from here, the little ship which brought him to work by air was waiting on a landing field nearby.
 "The flight will be purely a sporting proposition so far as am concerned" said the comedian Pm not eager to win a prize CT cover myself with glory. I just like flying, that's all, and the dawn-to-dusk race ought to be a real thrill"

tiOn of business, today there is some agitation for suspending Sat urday trading for lack of business.
 In other words. Wall Street has returned to normalcy.
 Prices of many leading indus trial and railroad stocks are now selling $10 to $25 below their high levels of the year, while many of the high priced specialties have dropped $25 to $100 in value. Gi- gantic paper profits of the big bulls" of Wall Street have been pared down, and thousands of the smaller traders have been finan- cially crippled or wiped out
 The terrific smash in Bancitaly Corporation common stock on the New York Curb Market, with a de- cline from $223 share in April 70 $l00 in June, probably has caus- ed the greatest individual damage. This stock was widely held by per sons of small means throughout the country, particularly along the Pacific Coast.
 The decline in prices in the last few weeks has reduced the quota value of securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange by bill lions of dollars. General Motors stock alone declined nearly $700,- 000,000 in quoted value between May ', when it established the years high of $210 a share and June 19, when it sold below $170. Wall Street is now actively de- batting whethtr the recent decline marks the beginning of major bear market or only another in terruptiGn of the "Lulr' movement which has been under way fol more than four years.
 Time alone will supply the an swer.

Marriages at Sea
Upheld as Legal
ByNew York Court


NEW YORK. March 3.-The
legality of marriages at sea was up
held Yesterday in a decision OF the
Appellate Division of the State Su-
preme Court.
The decision was handed down in
the case of Harry (Bud) Fisher.

his marriage by Commodore Herbert
Hartley to the former Contesse de
Beaumont aboard the Leviathan
several miles at sea on October "a,
1924. was illegal. Fisher said Hartley
was without authority to perform a
marriage and he was prohibited

Commodore Hartley was legally en-
titled to marry the parties and that,
the defendant, being outside the
jurisdiction of New York. the judg-
ment had no Xtra-territorial force
