"IN OLD ARIZONA"
 NOW AT COLISEUM

Tn Old Arizona" opened to a packed house at the Coliseum last night and is on again for three more nights.
 Tn Old Arizona" is not only in- finitely better than the usual crop of films, but it is significant be- cause it is the first outdoor talkie and really the first one to combine the technique of the screen and the stage, and the first one to make one forget the mechanical sound device. It has all the gentle satire and irony Of that great short story writer, o. Henry, and the stretch of desert country is so gor- geous and the mountainous country so effective that you would be con- tent just to look at some of the magnificent scenic effects.
 Warner Baxter as the bandit has never been seen in portrayal that is presented with so much feeling. Edmund Lowe is again hardboil- ed sergeant-the same kind that won him plaudits in What Price Glory" Dorothy Burgess per formante as Tonia Maria is a clas- sic. There is credit enough for both Raoul Walsh and Irving Cum mings for the direction of the pie lure.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Fore-
seeing days of possible discord and
strife when the fabulous riches of
Navajo Indians are divided, the in

The Navajos, a remote and iso-
lated people, have no birth certifl-
Gates. Sheep-raising nomadS, they
break into small groups and scatter
widely, it was explained. These
facts made it necessary for the In
dian commissioner to devise some
scheme of keeping tab on them.
So each Indian is being finger
printed, after which his names
both American and Indian-are
placed on the tribal rolls. He is

COL. STEWART
DEFENDS SELF
IN OIL FIGHT
Carries Attack Directly to
Office of John D. Jr.
in Statement.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Colonel Rob
ert w. Stewart, assuming personal
direction of his fight to retain the
craftsmanship of the board of the
Standard Oil Company OF Indiana,
carried his attack directly to the
office Of his opponents today.
In lengthy statement, Stewart
denied he ever held office or made
personal gain in the Continental
Trading COMPANY dealings con-
corning which he was questioned by
a senate investigating committee
several months ago.
He directed his statement to
Thomas M. Debevoise, an associate
of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who
seeks to terminate Stewards connec-
ton with the Indiana Standard
Company.
81 never had any connection with
the Continental Trading Company"
Stewart said.
Made Not Dollar Profit
st never was stakeholder, officer
nor director of or in the Continental
Trading Company, and never heard
of it's existence until 1 received a
proposition from that company to
sell oil to The Crude Oil Purchasing
Company, which proposition I
placed before the board Of directors
of the Standard Oil Company of In
diana and the Crude Oil Purchasing
Company, who accepted the propo-
Sition and purchased the oil.
IT, personally, never made a dol
lar out of the transaction, but the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana
made several millions.
Stewart defended his refusal to
answer questions of the senate in
vestigating committee in Washing
ton, an act which was criticised by
Debevoise in a recent statement.
IT refused to answer the senate
questions on the ground that it was
beyond the power of the committee
to ask them" Stewart said.
Defends Acts on Courts
CLEARLY, a citizen OF the OnlVeo
States, where he believes that pow
ers are being usurped or exceeded
by a public officer, has a right to
object, and take the matter into
the courts for final adjudication.
"This was done, and court OF
competent jurisdiction, jury, duly
impaneled, held that properly had
raised the question and that was
not guilty of the charge OF con-
tempt in refusing to answer.
"As for the perjury charge
brought against me, that was in
spired solely by malice, was abso-
lutely without foundation and some
of the highest officials of the gov
eminent regarded it as an outrage"

WORKER

Ranger May Throw Light on
Identity of Woman's Body
Found in River.
Rv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, May 4.-Belief that
Leland Wesley Abbott. 80, employe of
the United States Forest Service, might
be able to throw some light on the
identity of a girl whose torso was found
in the Los Angeles River a few weeks
ago led detectives to begin search for
him in the vicinity of Mount Wilson,
near here.
Capt. William j. Bright, head of the
Sheriff's homicide squad, last night or
dered his men to arrest Abbott after
the investigators had been told that the
forest worker disappeared from Los An
geles the day the torso was found
Bright said he also had learned that
Abbott had made threats against the
life of his young wife, who also had
apparently disappeared.
Ray l.. Martin, an acquaintance OF
Abbott, told the officers that Abbott
had asked to be taken to an address
where he said Mrs Abbott was living
with another man. Martin quoted Alb
bolt as having said, Now is the logical
time TO go out and blow out her brains,
for l am going East in a day or two"
The officers said Abbott had served a
term in LeavenWorth Federal Prison on
a charge of smuggling arms into Mexico.
They also declared Abbott was known
| in New York City, Philadelphia and
Louisville.
Police in Cincinnati were requested
to look for a record of Abbott'S mar
riage there and the names of Mrs.
Abbotts parents. In Indianapolis Mrs.
William A WenZ. mother of Abbott, last
night said she had received a letter
from her son two or three weeks ago
