listening, so as TO obtain ideas Of
his supporters on a variety Of sub

Senator Edge said that besides
paying their respects, he and Mr..
Kean had told Mr.. Hoover that il in
the selection Of his cabinet he could
name Dwight w. Morrow, the pres
ent ambassador 10 Mexico, as secre-
tary of state, it would be pleasing
to the people Of New Jersey.

October Crop of Movies Varied to Suit AU
JAN NINGS IN
FILM WITH
LOVE RIVAL

Perhaps for the first time in
the history Of the screen. situa.
ton in the real life of the actors
furnished the plot and provided
the material for the film.
Emil Jannings, star of THE
Way of All Flesh" variety"
and Sins of the Fathers" is
one of Conrad Veidt's best
friends. Veidt is a famous screen
personality in his own right, hav-
ing starred in The Cabinet Of
DR.. Caligari," "a Mans Past"
and The Man Who Laughs.
1t Is not generally known that
Jannings present wife is Veidt's
first wife. The separation took
place few years ago in Berlin
about the time the film Illus
bands or Lovers" was produced
there and it is significant that
both screen stars consented to
play roles in this film which were
so similar to the actual situations
through which they had just
passed, with the emotional ele-
ments of their own triangle still
fresh in their minds and hearts.
The picture is now showing at
the Little Theater.
Despite these facts, Jannings
and Veidt are close friends. They
lived near each other in Holly
wood where they starred in
Paramount and Universal pictures
and now ir Berlin where they
are both making films for foreign
producers.
