BLONDE OR BRUNETTE"
 NOW AT COLISEUM

As neat and clever a piece of comedy construction as the silver screen has reflected for a long time is Blonde or Brunette the Para mount picture starring Adolphe Menjou, which came to the Coli scum last night, with Gretta Nissen, as the blonde" and Arlette Mar chal, the "brunette.n
 The film is admirably suited, in characterization, plot, story and locale. to Menjou's talents and per- sonality. He is cast as young Paris barrister who, tiring of the gay life, decides to settle down and marry. 4
 When his blonde bride falls un- der the influence of Parisian gay- ety, hef inds that life is just a lit- tie more hectic than ever, so he turns for solace to more sedate and restful brunette. From here, the treatment of the eternal triangle proceeds in adroit and hilarious fashion.
 The climax comes when all points of the triangle are domiciled at

MARIE PREVOST IS
 AT PALACE TONIGHT

Most modern pictures end with a marriage ceremony but in "The Night Bride starring Marie Pre- vost, which will be on view at the Palace tonight. the procedure is re- versed. Instead of ending with a wedding, the picture starts out with one.
 And the heroine of the story is not featured in the ceremo ony. Rather it is that just as the cere- mony is about to begin. the bride discovers the man she is to wed, making love to her sister who is one of the bridesmaids. Then things begin to hum.
 The humorous and thrilling con- plications which follow and which eventually end in wedding make this Metropolitan comedy one of the keenest of all Provost starring vehicles. Harrison Ford again ap- pears opposite the star, with Frank lin Pangborn, Robert Edeson and other film celebrities in the sup porting roles.

told him of my return to con- sciousness and of my interview with Furie.
 "Furie, eh," he unused. Are you sure he didn't get into this builde ing last night without your seeing him? He's half crazy, you say, and he regarded you as dangerous to his claim on the mine. Wait a bit he went on as I was about to bounce on him. You were going to ask me why he didn't finish you after he broke in the door. A crazy man is creature of impulse. After breaking in the door he may have had one of his lucid moments and lost his nerve. I can't tell you why, but that doesn't affect my conclusions"
 I chuckled. You argue plausi- bly,, Henry. But I insist that it wasn't Furie. Do you mean that he killed Andrew?"
 No, I don't. Ogden refused to recognize Furie's claim; they quar- rcled. Now, if Andrew had been

SYNOPSIS: Awakening the morning after the ghastly ex- perience in the Lundy saloon, Peebles is convinced it was a nightmare. He is surprised to find Furie, Ogden's queer visi- tor of the day of the murder, beside him. He questions Furie, who flees when Henry Deacon drives up before the building. Deacon insists that Jerry's flan- nels, found in the saloon by Peebles, are added proof of guilt. Peebles claims they were planted by Dillon; then tells Deacon his experiences in Tor ridity but omits the two stony figures seated at the poker table.

he killed him. No, I am begin ming to believe that this new ledge in the Two Brothers is at the root of the thing. Jerry quarreled with his father over it, and Furie attacked you because of it."
 You are very tenacious" I said Has it occurred to you that since Jerry was seen driving along the Peskella road Friday night he couldn't have fought with me in my room Saturday morning?"
 Henry nodded. Tt has. But l do know who was wearing those white flannels Friday night. That affair in, your den is a minor prob lem"
 We are getting nowhere" grunted irritably, standing up What do you want to do first? {? Go over the resort, see the mine or interview Furie?"
 We soon finished with the re- sort. As we started down the gal lery stairs it occurred to me to glance at the wall where, the night before, I thought my providential door was located. I saw no door of course.
 On the way over to the Two Brothers Deacon said that he thought he would see Furie alone.
 Very we'll" I agreed. "rll put in the time poking around the mine buildings. We'll go into the mine to- gether."
 Henry stopped the car at the gash in the flank of the Skeletons, and I showed him the shanty.
 I watched until he passed through the door of the shanty Evidently Furie was at home, for he did not reappear. Going back to the se- dan, drove to the mine build ings. When I had spent the pre- scribed half-hour nosing around the plant I trudged back to the can- yon. Deacon was coming down the trail, wiping his forehead.
 You found him, eh?"
 "Yes. He was mixing a mess of flapjacks, and he didn't see me. He seemed to be talking to @ cou- pie of men he called Bull and Nap But saw that he was only talking to himself"
 "'Bull' and Nap I echoed. What did he say to them?"
 Henry grinned. T didn't get much of it, but I've an idea he was talking about you. Iris dom shame a ol' he goat like me can't have his bit O peace without them city sharps a-nosin' in, ain't it, Bull? Whut's that, Nap? Ye reckons he got the daylights skeered outen him? -He-Her He saw me then"

And I can't make myself see that half-blind old desert rat later on creeping in through the side win dow and stabbing Andrew in the neck. Besides, the principal evil dence points elsewhere.

it was Furie who tackled me in the resort last night?"
 Henry looked troubled. "It should, I suppose. But after talking to him I don't know. By the way, here's souvenir for you" Grin ming sourly, he handed me Furie's eight-sided eyepiece. Tt seemed to be necessary to him, and I thought relieving him of it was one way of disarming him."
 This was Henry's first express sion of uncertainty, and it delighted me, more than his souvenir did, but I examined the lens curiously
 We made our way to the cavern like gash in the opposite wall of the canyon and, preceded by the white beam of Deacons torch. plunged into it's forbidding black ness. The passage was as crooked as manzanita stick; its walls were of slaty formation, very rug ged and beethng in places. The dangers of our exploration were made clear when ton of debris crashed down a yard or so behind us,
 Before it's roar had ceased to hammer upon our ear-drums thun- derous echoes sprang up around us, behind us, above us, in front of us. Never had I heard so fightful medley of sound. We stood until it had subsided.
 Presently we found ourselves on the threshold of a tunnel, the roof and sides of which were timber led. The, slash had cut across, this timbered tunnel and continued in- to the bowels of the mountain. Deacon splashed the light beam into the tunnel. Smaller tunnels Iradiated from it in different direo- tions, and concluded this one was the main bore of the mine. Bringing the light beam back into the slash Deacon sprayed it over the wall above our heads. A vein of quartz some three feet wide on level with my head caught the light in a way that arersted our attention. Excited, I seized a knob-like pro- jection of the vein. It was loose, it came away in my hand, and Dea- con bent the light beam upon it.

New York, July II (UP)-The re- port of Moreland Commissioner Ro- bert Moses on the failure of the C',y Trust company has resulted in ac- ton which may alter the banking structure of New York state.
 Governor Roosevelt announced in Rochester last night he would dp point special commission 10 for mulate legislation based on the recommendation growing out of Moses investigation of the $I,0G0, 900 bank failure.
 Report Highly Critical Moses report is sweeping in it's criticism of Frank NJ. Warder. for mer superintendent Of banks; of the late Francesca M. Ferrari, president of the dcfunct institution, and sev- eral prominent men associated with Ferrari in his various financial pro teCtS.
 Warder is termed "a faithlcss pub lie official" the report going on to say:
 "The evidence shows that he | (WarLer) accepted gifts and sratui- ties including money and securities; that he knew of the dishonest man. agemCnt and bad conditions in the Fcrrar banks and deliberately pre- vented exposure and proper official action; that he authorized the eX- pa1Ision of these enterprises and placed the seal of the states ap- proval on Ferraris methods. He prostituted his department and the 1 banking law for unworthy friends and illegal personal gains and this i offense is more heinCus and con ! tcmptible because it threatened the small savings of the poor, the ig- norant and the dcfenseless and un- dermined the confidence of all for eign groups in the financial system and the very government of the | state"
 Judge Also Criticized | Judge Francis X. Mancuso of,gen- i cral sessions, chairman of the Loard of the City Trust, also came in for criticism, Moses asserting that he "cscaped prosecution because of the weakness of the law"
 Outstanding among the reCom- mendations made by Moses as a re- suit of the Moreland investigation are:
 That the state banking depart, mcnt be rcorganized along the line: of a private accounting staff.
 That all banks be placed under

SCORE Of CHANGES
IN DIPLOMATS SEEN
House Group Told Funds
Needed for Expenses
This Fiscal Year.

BY the Associated Press.
The belief that more than a score OF
the 81 United States diplomats serving
In foreign countries would be Withdrawn
or transferred at the outset of the in
coming administration has been ex-
pressed by Assistant Secretary of State
Carr.
Testifying before the House appro-
priationS committee at hearings on the
second deficiency bill, Mr. Carr said adj
ditional funds were needed by the State
Department for the transportation home
and replacement of ambassadors and
ministers for the present fiscal year, but
that funds had already been supplied
for the coming fiscal year.
Declaring that he was Judging from
what has happened at the change of
every administration in the past" Mr..
Carr said, that it was conservative es-
innate that 10 ambassadors and minis
tiers will very probably be changed
between March 4 and June 30--either
recalled or transferred" He added that
the department estimated as many more
diplomats would be changed after June
80, the end of the fiscal year.
Mr.. Carr said, however, that he knew
nothing of the intentions of President
elect Hoover, but emphasized that he
based his views on past experience.
