The lower East Side OF New York.
Americas greatest foreign settle
ment. is the locale Of most Of the
action Of Universal's special, ave
Americans" This unusual produc-
ton deals with the lives of these
people and will be shown at the
Capitol theater beginning Tuesday
for three days.
Many Of the colorful scenes in
we Americans" were filmed in New
York while many others were reg
istered at Universal City where a
complete Lower East Side street was
constructed for use in the picture.
Here are the butcher shop OF
Schmidt and the fruit store of AL
bertini where the drama Is enacted.
The story deals with the modern
generation Of Americas foreign born
who have become real Americans to
the amazement Of their elders, who
belatedly try to overtake their chill
dren by attending night school.
Director Edward Sloman went on

chance Of being shot.
"They not only fear the officer Of
the law. who might need $1,000 extra
spending money, or a drug store
iounger, or the crack shot from the
hardware store, but they remember
that their own pals nay turn on
them. They remember Jesse James,
Sam Bass. and Billy the Kid. all died
because Of traitorous companions"
Public Sentiment Divided
Two unexpected incidents have
caused sentiment to be turned against
the reward.
An oil scout Of San Angelo. driving
in his auto in Cara county late one
night, was commanded TO stop. I'm
needing. he speeded up, and was fired
on. 81 shots entering his leg.
Those who shot him were members
Of a posse looking for bank robbers
Another incident in connection with
the reward was the killing Of two
Mexicans, and the wounding OF q
third al Stanton in front Of the
Home State bank.
Wounded Bandit Recovered
The wounded Mexican has recov.
cred and claims that two officers en-
ployed the trio. got them drunk,
placed them in front of the bank, and
shot them.
The West Texas Sheriffs' associa.
ton has adopted a resolution request
ing modification of the reward 50
that IL would read "dead OF alive,
and would not apply to night time
robberies.
But in the meantime, "Five thou
sand dollars for every dead bank
robber-not a cent for a hundred live
ones" has been holding good.

RENO DIVORCE
CRIST GROWS
Mill Grinds Through
1903 Separations in
'27, u. S. Says

WASHINGTON, May 14.-R-
Reno. famous as a divorce center
was a much larger magnet for dis
agreeing couples last year than il
was in 1926.
The commerce department, review
ing marriage and divorce statistics
for Nevada today, credited that state
with 1853 divorces in 1927, an in
crease Of 932 or 9i.3 per cent over
the previous years. Specific figures
for Reno were not given. but Washoe
county, in which it is located. was
shown to have granted 1903 Of the
total, a gain of SAT or more than
100 per cent.
While no explanation was offered
for the divorce increase, the depart
ment called attention TO a modifica-
ton of Nevada's residence require
ment from six to three months.
Due largely to a change in Cali
fornia's marriage law requiring three
issuance Of n license, the report said,
95.3 per cent more couples were join
ed in wedlock in Nevada last year
than the year before. The total mar
riages were 1898, an increase Of ITO.
Washoe county's figures nearly treb-
led, showing 1888 marriages last year
as against SIS in 1926.
A total of 80 marriages were an
nu!led in the state in 1927 as Gem
pared with 90 in 1926. Washoe ccun-
~ accounted for SO. while Humboldt
and White Pine had one each.
