OF SEA LIONS TO
 END APRIL 30
Present Regulation Expires then but Protection
 May Be Extended

The regulation of the United States Department of Commerce which protects sea lions from being killed, unless found in the act of destroying food fish, expires April 30. of this year. It is re- ported, however, that the Depart ment is considering a new regula- tion which would continue the pro- tection for another two-year pe- riod.
 Alaska fishermen, particularly sal- mon trollers, have criticised this policy of the Government and are opposed to any protection for these mammals. It is generally under stood that eastern conservations ; ist influence is responsible for that policy.
 Trollers claim the sea lion is highly destructive to salmon and herring, both being consumed in large numbers for food, and that 1t kills many which 1t does not eat. Representative of trollers who were in Juneau at the 1929 session of the Alaska Legislature told Legis- lators that more salmon were tak- en by sea lions in Alaskan waters than were taken by fish traps and all other gear combined Estimates of the number in waters between Dixon Entrance and Cape Spen- cer run anywhere from a few thous- and to 100000.
 Several years ago the British Columbia government removed pro- lection on them and launched an active campaig of destruction. Since then the numbers in local waters have largely increased and many fishermen have contended they are being driven from British Columbia waters north.

Helen Hayes Next

helen Hayes, Washington star,
win act next for Producer Gil
bert Miller. The play is an En-
riish comedy, "Petticoat Influ-
eloce." written by Neil Grant.
Sir Nigel Playfair and Diana
Wynward have been acting 1t
abroad where 1t has been highly
successful.
Miss Hayes won the greatest
notices of her career in "Mr. Gil
hooley," the Jed Harris produc.
tion which has just closed. 1t
was q tTtfle too heavy drama
for the Broadway-minded. Helen
Hayes mother Is mentioned
among the mourners for she is
listed as one who had such faith
ia the drama she bought a good
sized slice Of the Jed Harris pro-
dtlction.
I Hope Col. Frank p. Morse
and George Perry. Marshall will
back Gilbert Miller into a cor
ner next week and make him
promise to give us a Hayes first
night. They might remind him
that Helen, Hayes has never had
q losing week in her home city.

One Of the most diverting OF
the. plays adorned by the Ia
menteA Nat Go0dwIn, When We
We're TWerty,oue, has been con-
verted by the movie into pleas
ant film drama, called for box
office purposes, Truth, About
Youth" It is currently the maln.
attraction at the Earle Theater.
This Is a well-acted feature WITH
a noticeably stout Conway Tearle
serving as the romantic lead
for the lovely Loretta Young,
whose facility for expressing
moods for the camera become
increasingly effective with ew
perience. The story Is dramatE
cally thin, so thin in fact that
its ending is obvious before 10
has been half told pictorially. .
To me the reason never be-
came apparent why Ri nara
Dane (played by David Nam
ners) passed up his allurir1G
fiancee, Phyllis loretta Youuge
to develop a mad infatnation for
the night club dancer, Kyra
tplayed by Myrna Loy). How
ever, Richard fell in love and
married Kyra, proving himself
much of cad and a poor picker
besides. So PhyliSs, who had q
repressed affection for Richards
Guardian tplayed by Conway
Tearle) feels the time has come
for her to propose. does, .aila
so the story ends with orange
blossoms in sight. ss1sr
Highly amusing interludes are
those provided when Phylss en-
deavorS to impress the dignified
Mr.. Tearle with the fact that p
girl finds a greater delight il
warm affection than cold respect
and when Myrna 10y finds her
new husband is without funds
and forthwith baniShes him for
ever. These are well directed
and well played scenes.
On the stage is Aunt Jemima,
pleasantly recalled from zieg-
feld's SHOW Boat" and , now
shouting her hot tunes without
benefit Of mahogany dressing. A
double shuttle by the heavy
weight entertainer clinched Q
solid hit yesterday afternoon.
Cardini amuses with some deft
tricks in magic and perplexing
feats with lighted cigarettes. A
good dancing act opens the stage
program. I should have liked
Rorrah Minnevich and his HQr.
monica Gang if served without
the leaders comedy. The music
is good, the comedy painful and,
if he must be comedian, why
not some facial makeup. As
for making jests about people
entering the theater-it struck
me as relic Of the ham actor
days which had long since been
forgotten. "~'s&

The venerable David Belasco ar
rived in washington at 4 p. m.
yesterday, is now comfortably es.
consed in quarters at the Hotel
washington and at the close Of
the second act Of Tonight on
NeSer'F may be expected to lead
out his, newest star, Helen Gahar
gan, and address the first night
audience at the Belasco.
There Is something impressive
ab0Gt O. David Belasco premiere.
The experienced play-goer has
come TO realize that the Belasco
trade mark means meticulous
choice of drama, faultleSs casting
and an that modern art can pro-
vide In settings and lights. Con;
sedUently there Is always that
treasnred moment Of hushed ex'
pectaucy before the first curtain
Of the latest BelaSco opus.
OfsLili ,Hatyany's play, "Tonlgnt
Or Never" Mr.. Belasco merely
vouchsafes, "We all think we have
4 fine play" It is two SET

at r. K. O.-Keith's is going to
have q certain amount Of ap-
peal.
Without the background and
the great following which the
two .blackface radio comics en-
Joy, the picture would fail to
click. Even now. 1t does not
quite come UP to expectations.
: There are, however, some bits
of real humor among which Is
Amos method Of putting q tire
on q wheel which Andy is hold
ing, without the latter having to
remove his hands, and the mao
drive to the railroad station.
Everyone however, wants TO see
II the inimitable pair is as they
are thought to be, and because
Of this the picture win continue

French king, played by Jannlngs.
Miss Talmadge and Farnum may
suffer by this comparison, out no
little weight of the blame may be
laid to singularly inept dialogue.
Like Passion" too, this new
picture gives Du Barry a real
sweetheart, in the person Of Con-
rad Nagel. In the midst OF a
merry fete at Versailles, 'Du Barry
saves him from death by admit
ting the revolutionary mob. Re
nouncing his allegiance to the
cause Of the people, the rescued
lover and Du Barry together face
the guillotine.
One can find no reasonable
fault with the cast. Hobart Bos-
worth, Alison Skipworth, Uric
Haupt, Edgar Norton and others
give the best of their talents.
william Cameron Menzies has
designed strikingly artistic and
carefully wrought sets in the pc
Rod Of the unhappy Louis. But
everywhere the book fills the
mouths of the cast with stilted
and hackneyed chatter, more rem
ipiscent Of Hank Simmons melo-
dramas than anything else. It is
this grave failing which denies
the life and vigor that this story
and this cast deserve.
OF inestimably higher enter
tainment value is the attractive
stage show presented by Henry
Santrey and his Soldiers Of
Fortune" It is q fast and bril-
liant program, reflecting good
showmanship in every detail.
The Santrey band is one of the
highest order, and it's members
dance, sing and perform musical
specialties of extraordinary merit.
Several pretty and clever solo
dancers are given opportunity to
display their abilities, and very
radiant group of Chester Hale
girls march in for a thrilling
finale. Without doubt this is
one Of the best stage units to be
seen at the Palace in months.
