Peter Williams, a native trader at Akiak, died a couple of months ago and left an estate worth about $2O,000. His building and stock of goods are on a small reServa- tion, and his heirs are desirious of selling it to the Northern Com mercial Company, as they them selves are incapable of conducting the business. The question has been presented to the Indian Bu- reau to decide whether this trans fer is allowable.

 In anticipation of renewed ac- tivity in the neighborhood of Ccickaloon the people of that sec- tion and the Nelchina district want a postoffice established at Chickaloon, which is being looked into.

 Residents of Douglas are com blaming of the dilapidated and unsafe condition of the present building used for the Native school, and advocate the purchase of suggested and conveniently arranged building, that can be purchased and properly fitted up for about $3,0O0.
 The City of Nome would like to widen a street on which part of the old court house stands. This structure was built in the aerly days but was abandoned for court purposes when the present court house was completed in 1908. In October 1913, the building was turned over to the Secretary of the Interior and has been used for a native school. The Indian Bu- reau is putting up new structure and the old court house has been vacated and abandoned. The Del egate has sought to have the pro- perty turned over to the City of Nome. Both the Interior and De- partment of Justice are perfectly willing that this should be done, but the hitch is. whether 1t can be delivered without an act of Congress. Assistant Attorney Gen. eral Sisson inclineS to the opinion that it would not be advisable for Nome to build the street thru this tract without first securing title to the land in a legal way, lest complications might result later.

NORFOLK, Va. November IA
heavy pail of smoke from forest fires
combining with fog settled down over
fidewater Virginia yesterday and worked
havoc with transportation by land, sea
and air. Two vessels were known to
have gone ashore, and the scouting
forces of the United States feet, en-
gagged in target practice of the Vir-
9iria Capes, was forced to suspend
activities because Of low visibility caused
by q blanket Of smoke and fog.
Airplane passenger service was viz
tually suspended In and out OF Norfolk
; because the smoke was SO dense. Only
one passenger plane was in service.
Bus lines In and out Of the city were
running far behind schedule because Of
the density Of the smoke and fog.
The auxiliary pilot boat Virginia, OF
the Virginia Pilot Association, grounded
OF Cape Henry in the early morning
while her skipper was trying to feel
his way through the smoke and fog
after taking q pilot from an outgoing

factory comedy picture-which is no
time either tortures the emotions or
gets one in any way down at the
mouth.
Much rejoicing, too, Is going on
at Loew's Palace since the appear
ance "in person" of Mr.. Haines has
necessitated the calling out almost
of the police squad, so ardent are
his admirers and so anxious to view
him at arms or eyes length.
Mr.. Haines is, unfortunately, not
as versatile on the stage as he is
in the picture dts his best film
since Lord knows when). He smiles
nicely, and his audience roars its
approval Of him-but why do all
amusing luminaries that come from
the West have to do little verse, a
little song, and, worst Of all, a lit
tie dance? Mr.. Haines is a capable
actor, and above all, an exception
ally ebullient personality as his
screen self, and the sight of him
initiating musical comedy lothario
is nothing short Of tragic. It seems
as though they could have done
better by him. He smiles through
it all, however. and pretends to like
it-but when they told him "go on,
what all good audiences expect from
a screen star" he must have grcaned
inwardly, long and loud.
Mr.. Haines is nicely expert, how
ever, in his Wallingford role and is
amusingly supported by Jimmy Du-
rante and Ernest Terrence. This
is an excellent team for Just this
sort Of thing, and one hopes (just as
Mr.. Haines said he hoped that they
will keep up the good work together.
The story is adequately explained by
the title. AS all good Wallingfordites
know, everything Is tried at the old
butchery game and everything comes
out all right in the end, with cupid,
Of course, standing on top Of the
world.
The stage show, Great Guns" is
presided over continually by Milton

Minister Dino Grandi Of italy, who ar
rives next week to visit President
Hoover. While serving as Ambassador
to italy, Fletcher became intimately
acquainted with Grand. Hence the re-
quest Of Secretary Of State Stimson that
he help welcome the visitor.
In the diplomatic service almost con-
tinuously since 1902, Fletcher probably
won't stay in private life very long.
Speculation at various times since he
returned from Rome has attributed to
him three desires: To be United States
Senator, Secretary Of State and Ambas-
sodor to the Court Of st. James.
His resignation creates q second va

mulled over the thousands Of scripts
they had In their library, looked
sideways at the ponderous pages OF
Strange Interlude," which M-G-M
has safely tucked away in its closets,
and after deep thought decided that
the Lunts should be launched Gin
ernatically In one of their stage sue
cesses, 1.-THE Guardsman."
In spite Of some Of the incongru-
Gus advertising which has heralded
its approach, and the evident dis
respect of the title, THE Guards
man." which opened yesterday at
Loew's Columbia, is rare treat to
all those who do not object to the
screen sometimes breaking away
from the beaten path. Although
Hollywood has not bent over back
wards to give the Lunts anything
very distinguished in the way OF
sets, lighting or costumes, 1t mas
allowed them carte blanche as iar
as their acting is concerned, with
the result that no more brilliant
mining has been seen this season.
Put any two other actors in the
same play and see what happens.
For Mr.. Molnar's story is very slight,
and demands that minute innuendo
of light and shade which only the
supermterpreter can give. This Is
true since q man with a beard is
very much like man without q
beard when 1t comes to trying to
pretend he is somebody else at close
quarters with his wife. Mr.. Molnar
knew. of course, that to all good
wives a beard means nothing. And
for that reason, perhaps, he devised
this satirical comedy Of two actors,
one Of whom Is green-eyed with
jealousy, and the other lovely lady
whose talents as an actress are al
ways at her fingers tips.
Although Mr.. Lunt has assured us
that he is nothing but an amateur
as far as the screen is concerned, II
this Is an example of amateurism,
then Queen Dido never died, nor did
Mae West reach out and pluck
Macbeth" for her next starry VEN
ture. An actor whose comedy modu-
lations are wonderfully amusing, he
may be viewed with the utmost
satisfaction in this lovelorn lovers
role.
Miss Fontanne. too, as always, Is
past Notwithstanding the Quintes-
sence IF q handsome, capable come
dienne. In fact, there Is nothing to
be found wrong with either of them,
nor with Roland Young nor with

ment, but 1t Is different" sophisti-
Gated and TO be enjoyed hugely as

It has been reserved for Heart
break" the altogether impressive
film play at the Fox Theater, to
produce the high mark in this stir
ring type. The author and director
have provided that elusive element
sought by many, the purely personal
element Of an inspiring love story in
the midst Of the massive clash Of
nations. The humiliation of time
and space Is achieved by means Of
the airplane.
1t is to the credit of the screen
that 1t has been able to construct q
story Of thrills and appeal to the
emotions without any claptrap or
descent to violations Of the moral
code; that life among intelligent and
responsible persons, whose contacts
are worth while, Is made to con-
tribute to that suspense and COM
plete absorption which are the only
real basis for the play that has the
living elements of the stage. And
this Offering demonstrates that the
screen may provide its own ad-
vantages In the telling of the story.

The Fox also has a short Mack
