 LAURA LA PLANTE IS COMING SOON, PALACE


 The desire to present to it's pat 'rons something distinctly different in the field of high-class enter tainment is the constant effort of every progressive theatre. There fore the management of the Palace Theatre takes much pleasure and a full measure of pride in offering the Universal production, "The Love Trap with sound and .dia- Ilogue, as its forthcoming attraction. The Love Trap" is photoplay as vastly different from the usual motion picture as it is beyond the ordinary in entertainment value. Starring beautiful Laura La Plante, the personality girl" of the screen, it derives it's title from the clever manner in which a young wife turns the tables of an undeserved reputation in order to clear her name
 For the first time in her screen career, Miss La Plante is seen in "The Love Trap" as a chorus girl
 Her breath-taking romance with Neil Hamilton, one of the most popular young leading men of the silversheet, as the scion of wealthy and aristocratic family, furnish her with many opportunities for the sparkling comedy which has made her so famous.

PARIS, March 1l.-One person in seyenty-five in Paris tries to earn living painting pictures that are hard to sell
 There are 4O,Oo0 artists in the capital, says Paul Leon, Director of the School of Fine Arts, Most cf them, he admits sadly cannot make living but still they go on painting pictures and dreaming of the fame that few achieve.
 They resemble the Tower of Babel in that there are so many divergent views and interpretations of art that even critics have lost count. All kinds of art are repre- centcd from the old, old classicism that youth considers prehistoric to the surrealists and even the newest of the new, the antisurrealists who think the surrealists, startling as they are to many, already are old fashioned, So rapid is the progress of modernism.
 Silk hat art, costly old master pieces of centuries ago and high society modernism, is sold on the rue La Beetle and intersecting streets around the Presidential pal ace, where there are hundred or more fine art stores and galleries harboring millions of dollars worth of pictures. There go most of the painters with regulations
 Art for arts sake, struggles for bread and butter chiefly in another hundred or more shops on the ether side of the river, in and around the rue de Seine, in the old Latin Quarter from the river to the Sorbonne. There go many of the new crop of expressionists, and there some achieve fame, some times quickly graduatingsto the car peted salons of the rich mans art stores over which the President of France lives.

 While absent Dr. Borland spent sometime in Seattle and other coast cities. During his visits at the cancer clinic he viewed many patients who were subjecting them selves to the new treatment, and re- ported that they improved quite rapidly after receiving attention.
 Many Alaskans were seen by Dr. Borland in Seattle, and, he de- elared, much interest was being shown there in the Taku district. He predicted there will be hun dreds in Juneau within a short time ready to go into the new mining district as soon as the ice goes out,

 WINS HONOR IN ENGLAND

PASADENA, Cal. March 11.-The Royal Horticultural Society of Eng land has expressed its official ap- preciation to Mrs. A. Sherman Hcyt of her gift of collection of California cacti and desert plants to Kew Gardens, London.

 Dolores Costello stars in War ner Bros latest special, "The Re- deeming Sin which comes to the Coliseum tonight. ~
 Miss Costello is supported by Conrad Nagel, the team having pre- viously appeared in Glorious Bet sy' and "Tenderloin" Others in the cast are Lionel Belmore, Gaor- gie Stone, Warner Richmond, Nina Quartero and Philippe de Lacy. The story is by L. V. Jefferson and the scenario by Harvey Gates. How ard Bretherton directed.

 Under the control of thief, Joan's hectic days are frightened by her small brother, who, without her Knowledge, is being trained in the art of pocket-picking. The child is shot by accident by thief and a young doctor is called, whose love for Joan changes the course of her life, not, however, without some of the most thrilling episodes ever filmed.
 There have been many great plays on the women of Paris but none have portrayed a character more affecting than Joan. "The Rcdeemipg Sim is beautifully pho tographed, the scenes in the City by the Seine being visulaized with uncanny reality.

RADIO TURNS THEATRE INTO STUDIO
 BY AID OF SEXTON GLASS CURTAIN
By c. E. BUTTERFIELD GA. r. Radio EOitOr)


 NEW YORK, March 11.-Radio has gone on the stage.
 In fact it has advanced a few steps further and has turned an en- tire theatre into broadcast stu dio.
 To do that it had to overcome many obstacles, including the in- stallation of six-ton glass eur tain" which can be lowered and raised by enc man to make the stage soandproof
 Listeners long have wanted to sec as well as hear their favori5es in action. Broadcast studios are not large enough to accommodate all of them. The result was the de- cision to change a theatre into @ studio where fans could sit com fortabiy watching a broadcast pro- gram go on the air from the stage just like it does from a station studio.
 The stage studio is a realization of an ambition of officials of the National Broadcasting c Company. They have taken over the theater, with accommodations for an audi ence of 600, on the roof of the New Amsterdam theatre building in the heart of New York's Times Square district.
 To make the stage into a studio. innumerable alterations were ns- cessary. The seating section was unchanged, except for the installa- tion of loudspeakers at various points of vantage.
 The audience had to be shut off from the stage, yet be able to see. To do that it was decided to use a glass curtain" This curtain" is really an overgrown window, with a steel framework to hold the glass. Soundproof floor covering was put on the stage. Heavy drapes like those in the regular studio take the place of scenery
 Numerous microphones outle ts were installed about the stage, each one leading through Q separate conduit to the control room in the rear of the balcony. There the operator can watch and hear the entertainers and gauge the output accordingly. From the theater, the programs are fed to the local NEG stations and chains by special wires.
 The audience at these broadcast shows really watches with the curtain down. It does not actually hear the voices Of the performers, as they address only the micro phone The music and other enter tainment is conveyed to the im- mediate listeners by loudspeakers just like it is to those using radio receivers far away.
 Another thing. Tickets for the shows will not cost a cent. Listen CTS will be admitted up to the limit of the seating capacity upon

 The merchant service, it is agreed by the government experts, will solve many military problayns and furnish an army of fliers, needing little exercise to put them in trim when the guns begin to roar.
 Eynac's Theory
 IL is M. Eynac's theory that some time soon there will be a sort of division for commercial air spoils, and France wants to be ready to claim her share of the flying trade ever the world routes.

GERMAN CITY VOTES IN
 FAVOR OF HEAVY OPERA

DUISBERG, Mar. l1.-Sixty-four per cent of the theatregoers of this German city prefer heavier operas to light operettas and ask that classic works be performed.
 The management of the Duisberg Municipal Theatre took a straw vote to determine what sort of per- formances to stage in 193O. Of those who responded, GA per cent preferred classic opera, 22 per cent the drama and only IA per cent op- erettas.
 The following operas won out in this competition: verdi's Aida, 1"

eve shall not be able to trade on plans and theories; we must have actual air trade in existence to justify our demand for control of certain routes,' he says.
 Two-thirds of the mail between France and French Africa is car ried by plane now and the mail service from Paris to Rio JanelTo is on a six day basis instead of nearly three weeks by boat Postal service with all the capitals of Eu- rope as far as Istanbul is growing and before long it is hoped Indo- China will be linked with Paris by regular planes, as well as Madagas- car and the French colonies of West Africa.
 Geographical Eit
 France is well aided by her geo. graphical situation" says Emman- uel Chaumie. Chief of the Conner cial Section cf the Air Ministry. By  that he means that French Terri tory is spotted along many of the probably great air routes of the world And he would build more aifficlds, light more lanes, estab- lisn more and better wireless and weather posts to make the lanes over France and French colonies the most desirable routes for for eign planes to take.
 All these international roads, the ministry contends, must be bound together by French domestic serv- ice, intended primarily to make connections between International lines. For France herself, 1t is felt that only long hauls will be profit able for some time. It is said that letters are written during the day and should be transported by night and as France can be trayersed in very few hours there Is little ad- vantage in sending by air what trains will deliver before breakfast.

CONFERENCE ON AIR
LEGISLATION ASKED
Necessity for Uniform Laws Il
Stressed in Resolution Of Aero
C. Of C. Governors.

The vital necessity for uniformity In
aeronautical legislation is stressed In
q resolution adopted during the past
week by the board of governors of the
Aeronautical Chamber Of Commerce
asking the Department of Commerce to
call a national conference Of ohicials
of the 40 States to consider with Fed
eral officials and representatives OF the
aviation industry the general problem
of aviation legislation.
The request for the conference growi
from a fear that enactment Of legisla-
ton of widely divergent character af-
fecting aviation in the various States
may result in complications which viii
hamper the growth OF aviation in tht
country.
The board also approved q plan fol
the calling of eight regional confer
ences in various parts Of the country
during the last three months OF thu
year in cooperation with the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States Il
consider aviation problems IN these
sections.
Sherman M. Fairchild was elected tx
the board to succeed Carl s. Reed, re-
signed. The appointment OF William
r. MacCracken, jr., former Assistant
Secretary Of Commerce for Aeronau'
tics, as the chambers representative or

TULSA AIR TRAFFIC
EXCEEDS 23O A DAY
Total of 1852 Board Planes or
Land in Two. Year Field
During Fiscal Year.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla.-Two years ago Tulsa IS
Municipal Airport was just one Of many
new landing fields in wide-open spaces
of the Southwest.
Since then 1t has grown to a point
where passenger traffic averages more
than 1000 persons a month-more
than $50 day.
A total of s5,552 persons boarded
planes or landed from them, field
records show, in the fiscal year that
ended June 80. That figure was ex-
elusive of student and scenic flights.
Two years ago the port was nothing
more than a bare field. Now its prop
erty investment is estimated at $1,000
600, and the airport has become self
supporting.
Recently the volume of traffic at the
Tulsa field has exceeded that of Croy-
don Field. London, and in some months
1t has been heavier than the combined
traffic of principal fields at Paris,
London and Berlin.
Five passenger lines maintain regular
schedules to and from the Tulsa field,
and one airrnail line operates out of
here.
A new administration building is in
cluded among improvements planned
for the near future.

AS first aid to the interested layman
who wants to know more about the
Army,s fighting planes, the War De-
partment has issued an explanation OF
the system used in designating the many
types of military airplanes SO that any
one looking at the quaint collections OF
letters and numerals on the fuselage OF
any Army plane may know a great deal
about that plane without knowing a
great deal about aeronautics.
BY knowing the system, it Is ex-
planned, the layman may know that one
type of two-seater plane is used for
attack purposes of ground Strafhng,
while another two-seater, which seems
outwardly to be of much the same APP
pearance, Is an observation plane, used
for entirely different missions.
Similarly, there is one type of OBJ
servation plane which very closely re-
sembles one of the basic training types.
The designations show the difference.
Army Air Corps planes, are divided
into eight classes, according to type or
model, the War Department explains.
These classes and the class designations
are as follows: Pursuit or fighting
planes, p; observation planes, O; attack
planes, A; transport cargo, ambulance
and workshop planes, c.; bonbardment
planes, B, primary training planes, PIT;
basic trimming planes. used in the tran
sition from the primary type to service
type planes, DIT, and Photographic
planes, F.
X Means Experimental.
Airplanes Of experimental status carry
the letter x, prefixed before the desig
nation. Airplanes which have passed
the experimental stage and have been
sent to the squadrons for field service
tests have designations prefixed by the
letter Y.
In the case of the P-6 pursuit plane,
for example, when this plane was de-
veloped from the earlier P-1, known as
the Curtiss Hawk, the first expert
mental model was known as the XP-6,
showing that it was the experimental
stage of pursuit plane, and was sixth
in the series of pursuit types. When
the XP-6 completed its flight tests
successfully, small number of these
planes were purchased and sent to an
active pursuit squadron for service tests
by regular combat pilots. During this
period of service tests they bore the
designation YP-6. Having passed the
serviee tests, the planes went into regu-
lar service, and now are known by the
designation P-6.
The designation figures may be fol-
lowed by letters of the alphabet, shows-
ing successive minor improvements of
the same model. This will be made
clear by the following examples of some
of the standard Air Corps designations
and the airplanes they describe:
P-1-A-Curtiss Hawk pursuit plane
with Curtiss D-12-C, 4S0-horsepower
engine.
P-1-B-The same plane, with i'm
proved motor of the D-12-D type and
larger landing wheels.
P-1-C-Same as the P-1-B, except
that the motor has new type of gun
synchronizer and the wheels are
equipped with brakes.
P-6-Curtiss Hawk pursuit plane,
with 600-horsepower Curtiss engine,
