SILENCE IN THE THEATER AT FILM
 OF CITY LIGHTS
Many People of Note Were Present and 70 PatrOl- men and Six Mounted Off, ficers Kept Crowd Back

New York. Feb 7.-UP)-Noisy New York's motion picture critics and fans greeted "City Lights" Charlie Chaplin's first picture in three years-and it 0 silent f1lm-as ample demonstration of what one critic called "the eloquence of silence Some 1,500 persons who damned into a limited area on Times Square where "City Lights" are brightest blocked traffic in front of the George M. Cohan theater where the film was shown. They required the attention of 70 patrolmen and six mounted policemen. The crowd was not dispersed until Chaplin and his party arrived, 10 minutes late for his own premiere. He was ac- companied by Ralph Barton, Mrs William Randolph Hearst, and George Jean Nathan.
 In the crowd were noted Will Hays, John MacCormack, Anita Loos, Mrs Alfred F. Smith and AL fred E Smith Jr. John Emerson, Morris Gest. Adolph Zukor. Samuel Goldwyn, Frances Howard, Marie Saxon, Ruth Taylor Texas Guinan, and others from all walks of life. Chaplin, once inside. took an aisle seat beside Miss Constance Collier, and after the show. went to the stage where he told the crowd he "was happy" and thanked them for their enthusiasm, which was as marked as that of the critics in the morning papers. all of whom praised the picture highly.

Another Compromise
 On Relief Measure
 May Settle Dispute
$2O,OO0,O0O Will Be Ap- propriated, But Not to Red CrOss-Five Million Less Than Was Asked But Ten Million More Than Hoover Wanted
BY LYLE c. WILSON

\CMUN AESSS oIniI NOrreSpOnOcnt)
 Washington, February 2 = (UP) - President Hoover and congress sional leaders have compromised on trough relief. and $2O.0O0.OOO is to be appropriated from the public treasury for that purpose. in an ef- fort to avert an extra session of con- gress.
 The text of the compromise agree ment has been made public,
 Minority Leader Robinson and Senator Caraway, democrat, Arkan- sas, who led the relief fight, told questioners the compromise lan- guage was sufficiently broad to per- init food loans to distressed farmers.
 Majority Leader Watson said he was satisfied. MT Hoover would agree to a 20.OO0,OO0 solution of the drought relief program.
 Disturbing opposition developed. however. in the insurgent republi- can group Senator Brookhart, re- publican, Iowa, said.
 "I am absolutely opposed to it. want to give food to starving peo- pie in the cities and I can't see any thing in this to do it.'
 But the leaders were in line on the issue which has contributed more than any other this session to legislative turmoil and the prospect of an extra session. Speaker Long, worth and house Majority Leader Tilson approved the new agreement. Watson said it had been accepted by the president as a satisfactory plan.
 Back-bench democrats, mean while. appeared to be suspicious Of the compromise. It does not men ton the word food" which MT

POLICY HEADS OF NATION SEEKING
 HIDING PLACES
They Were Almost Bank rupted Yesterday as There Was a Leak on the Figures That Brought Luck

New, York, Feb 7- UP)-De- faulting heads of the policy gamb- ling racket all over the country were hiding out today, increasing their life insurance, and seeking new source of daily lottery figures after a mysterious "leak" in the treasury department at Washington yesterday cost them hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions.
 Yesterday, someone with clair voyant mind or a good friend h Washington, passed the word along that SIP would be the lucky num- Der. It was. It fetched luck to the five and tenners and more luck 10 the policy game operators and tho"e who bet q quarter. dollar or more. The gamblers have no legal rights in this particular matter so the course they may chart on investi- gating the "leak" at Washington IS doubtful. However, they are going ahead with plans for new source of figures,

 Walter Buttendorf, architect re- tained by a monument making firm which specializes in grave markers for pets. and whose work is centered in catering to the whims and fancies of those who can afford to so mourn their departed pets, says the simplest headstone for a dog in Hartsdale would cost $50.
 Probably the most expensive mausoleum there," he said, lis that holding the remains of Sally and Toodles, pets of M. F. Walsh. It's of Barre Vermont granite and cost about $20.O00. Why, it's larger than the sarcophagi of the Pharaohs." The cheapest plot in this pet ceme- tery measuring two by four feet costs $29 and they range from that fig ure sp to 5000 plus upkeep and renewal of flowers which many own CTS insist upon.

CAPT CAMPBELL IS THROUGH AND
 WILL GO HOME
Has Made Two Records With His Wonderful Machines and Thinks That Will Do for Now

Daytona Beach, Fla. Feb - GU. P0-Captain Malcolm Camp bell, British racing driver, has made his last appearance on the beach track here for this season and with his two newly acquired automobile speed records will leave for New York early next week preparatory to sailing for England.
 Having given the world a new speed record on Thursday when he drove his fantastically built "Blue- bird' over a measure mile course at an average speed of slightly more than 245 miles an hour, Captain Campbell returned to the beach track yesterday and established a new record for class "H" cars, guid- ing a little British Austin car up and down the wide stretch of sand at an average speed of 94 miles an hour. That ends the show for the time being at least" he said at the end of yesterdays run.

STRUGGLED ALIEN WAS CAPTURED IN THIS

Hartford. Conn. February 7-- (UP) - A smuggling syndicate for transporting aliens into the United States from Brazil has been discovered, according to I'm migration Inspector Roland w. Keeney.
 Two men alleged to have en- tered the country after paying $500 to the Brazilian head of the organization, Anthony Pedro and Manuel Lima, were held in coun- ty jail here today awaiting hear ing before U. S. commissioner.
 Pedro, arrested at Waterbury yesterday, said he entered at Brooklyn, N. Y., after trip from Rio De Janiero. with II other aliens. Lima was appre- hended after deserting an Italian ship at Providence. R. I. He had been working at Waterbury.

These two men were dropped from the staff by Commissioner William Mckenzie in an effort on the part of the latter to balance his budget Now that ex-Mayor Sandland must resign to assume his duties in Wa terbury, scramble has been start ed for the place on the labor com missioner's staff.
 Nevertheless, 1t is reported now that the position may be left vacant because of the necessity of the la bor commissioner to further bal ance his budget. His term expires in July and should the democrats appoint a democrat in his place he would like to show good admin istration, hence the curtailment in present outlays.
 Governor Wilbur l.. Cross has the power of naming the commissioner of labor in July unless the republi- cans play politics and use their power to curtail the chief executives power by passage of bill in the legislature. However. it is now felt that such a step would cause too much criticism, and there is every liklihood that a democrat la bor commissioner will go in on Au- gust 1st.
 Pressure is now being brought to bear to give some local republican a place on the labor commissioners staff from March 1st to July 31st. Another mentioned for the position is George McGrath, well known ex- serviceman.

 Evolution? I don't believe in it,'' Stephen Balinski, another member commented. And the evolution he commented on was traced thusly by Hillyer, who is headmaster of Cal vert school, near Baltimore:

Under the new bill all fines im- posed would go entirely to the state of Connecticut. Therefore, the city of Waterbury and all boroughs, cities and towns in Connecticut would lose 8 certain share of the fines which they have pleasantly seen go into the various community treasuries in the past.
 Therefore, it is expected that wheA the hearing takes place in Hartford municipal, court, and bar leaders will be. present to oppose such a measure. Under the present state law the various communities in which cases are tried receive a portion of the fines collected. The new bill would establish district courts with all fines going directly into the state treasury. Therefore. it is figured that the various local treasuries would be robbed of sub stantial income, thereby cutting down the income and forcing in- creased taxation.
 Opposition to the district court bill Is expected to be heavy next week in Hartford with agencies throughout Connecticut joining against the measure.
