Later she leaves VrOnSky when she
finds that he will be dishonorably
discharged from his regiment be-
cause Of her. Some time later they
meet and Vronsky learns that
Annals husband is dead and they
are very happy.
That is the story briefly. The plot
depicts the suffering undergone by
Anna for her love for her child, and
that for Vronsky. The love of
Anna for Vronsky is not hard to
understand and has been shown
with understanding on the part OF
the director and the actors.
This picture gives Miss Carlo
greater advantage to show what she
can do than it does Gilbert. In the
cast is George Fawcett, who has the
part of the grand duke; his work
is fine.
On the stage Rome and Dunn
have several comedy songs. These
two men are billed as THE Sing
ing Fashion Plates" and they sing
as we'll as they are dressed.
There are other numbers that in
clude tap-danCers and singers.
When I was at the theater Teddy
Joyce nearly upset the show by not
attending to his directing and
caused the chorus to get most pitt
fully "balled-up" in one of their
dance numbers. Outside of this the
chorus did some very neat work.
Lester Huff at the organ with a
novelty solo and Emil Seidel con-
Quoting the orchestra complete the

MYSTERY STORY is
GOOD PHOTOPLAY

1.-THE Chinese Parrot" is mystery
story that concerns two persons
deeply, and the mystery hinges on a
pearl necklace. Such is the picture
at the Ohio.
Marion Nixon is cast as Sally
Phillmore, who marries a man by
the name of Jordan. 1t is then that
Phillip Madden sWears that he will
have revenge on her, for he loved
Sally himself. The scene shifts from
Hawaii to san Francisco some
twenty years later.
Phillip Madden is going to buy the
string of pearls that has caused so
much unhappiness to Sally. Hobart
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-03-19

BoSworth is Madden. Florence Tur-
ner plays Sally after twenty years.
Her daughter Paula is played by
Miss Nixon.
Alexander Eden is the agent
through whom the pearls are sold,
and his son Robert is the messen-
ger. Edmund Burns, playing the
son of Eden, falls in love with Paula
and Urys to keep her from falling
into the clutches of Madden.
But Madden has a double in the
part of Maydorf, who is a crook,
also played by BoSworth. And there
is a Chinese detective named
Charlie Chan, who finally clears up
the mystery. There are many more
characters, as there must be in all
good mystery stories.
Some time ago l read this story
in one of the magazines and
thought then that it was a corking
good story. When I saw the film I
was more than convinced that good
mystery could be filmed without
giving away the point until the end.
Both Miss Nixon and Edmund
Burns do very good work as we'll as
the man who is cast as Charlie
Chan. Interest is kept to a high
pitch all the way through the
picture. The scene is first laid in
Hawiia, and then in San Francisco
and finally moves to the E1ojave
Desert, where Madden has a desert
home.
This is too good a mystery to even
tell why it is called The Chinese
Parrot" But I will say that it is
well executed by all members Of the
cast. At the Ohio. by the OBJ

IL. D. Conducts Drive
for Arrested Workers

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 20.
The local section Of the Interna-
tional Labor Defense is conducting
a campaign on behalf of the mem
bers of the Workers (Communist)
Party who have been arrested at
outdoor meetings during the course
of their election campaign.
Among those arrested are Dom
mick Flaini, Emanuel Epstein, Her.
man Pinsker, Herbert Benjamin,
benjamin Weiss and Israel Lazaar.
John Lymna, secretary of the
Philadelphia l. L. D. local, states
that the persecution and arrests of
members of the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party are only the first of a
series against working class organ
izations. Therefore the Philadelphia
local has broadened the base of the
defense by initiating campaign for
the repeal of the infamous Flynn
sedition act of Pennsylvania, one of
the most vicious pieces of legisla-
ture used to frame-up workers for
their activities on behalf of labor.
This attempt to outlaw the Work
ers (Communist) Party in Pennsyl-
vania is being fought, even as in the
case of the Woodlawn, Pa, steel
workers. In this case, the National
Office of International Labor De-
Tense has carried The appeal of the
Woodlawn steel workers to the
state supreme court, where a hear
ing will be held on the oath.

self.
The new law provides that the

coordinate all the activities of the
government and give advise on all
matters pertaining to the govern
ing Of the state. Its meetings shall
be secret, and none of its members
can be arrested or tried without the
authorization of the grand council
In this way, all power is guar

means has given his own i'm

pointed by himself, legal and for
NAL status as the debating and rul-
ing power of Italy. The senate, the

istry can only do what the grand
council decides, for members of the
