NORMA SHEARER| TUESDAY. IN CAPITOL PLAY.
Novarro Appears for Last Tim es Tonight in
 Devil May Care

With Devil May Care" starring Ramon Novarro, showing for the last times tonight at the Capitol Theatre, Their Own Desire" fea- turing Norma Shearer, will be pre- sented tomorrow night at the popu- lar playhouse
 The plot of Their Own Desire" concerns itself with a family of this year of grace whose parents are gradually drifting to divorce. When Lally, the daughter played by Miss Shearer, discovers her fath- CT in the arms of another woman, she takes her mothers side and the two go to a resort to get away from the embittered atmosphere of the domestic empasse. Here Lally meets and falls in love with Jack, played by Robert Montgomery, only to discover after promising to marry him, that he is the son of the woman whom she has seen with her father.
 Fast Moving Play
 The untangling of this sitpation makes up fast-moving plot which contains interest, suspense and a highly pitched climax, necessary ingredients to any well-made cine ma product.
 Among the various locations. used in the filming of Their Own De- sire" were Lake Arrowhead, which is more than 100 miles from the studio in Culver City, Calif., and is situated upon the crest of one of the highest ranges in Southern California;; the fashionable Nor conian Club near Elsinore, where swimming pool scenes were made; the field of the Midwick Country Club in Coyote Pass which was used for the filming of a polo match, and Franklin Canyon where motorboat sequence was made in which it was necessary for wind machines to be used to whip the ordinarily placid waters to a hur- ricane fury.
 NOyarro in Fine Play
 In Devil May Care" story of adventure, romance and comedy, in the period intervening between the exile of Napoleon to Elba, and his return to France, Novarro has an excellent opportunity to display the sure and delft dramatic touch which is his. He is supported by a very pretty and capable young newcomer to the screen, little Miss Dorothy Jordan, of musical comedy fame. Other players who do well balanced work include John Mill jan and Marion Harris.
 The added feature attraction at the Capitol tonight is Harry Lang don in The Shrimp"

victories and in the glorious perm anence of His results. With the full convection of that divine strength upon her, the Catholic Church wages this struggle with the forces of error and unbelief. She has no doubt where final vic tory will rest. She may have to wait, and she certainly will have to suffer, but of the outcome she is absolutely certain. In defense of Christianity and religion, she would, of course, desire to be allied with all the forces that make for good and God in the world. But, if needs be, she will fight the bat tie alone, proud and confidtnt in the truth of her mission, that she is striving for the protection of human liberty, and for the sacred rights of the children of God, "Whcm to know is to love, and Whom to love is to serve, and Whom to serve is to reign"

of the mission, spoke on the Value of Religion and said in part.
 "The PICTURE of the WORLD today from a religious point of view is a very distressing one. We are living in an age of so-called progress and advancement, of en- lightenment and prosperity. That may be true in the material sense, but lamentably false in the real sense, the spiritual and religious sense, upon which, necessarily de- pend all lasting civilization, hap piness and peace. The religious as- pect of the world is picture of contention against God, His Di- vine Son, and the Church, an ap- palling state Of affairs, that meets the approval of mans indifference, but incurs divine condemnation. In the words of Christ Himself. "I hcnor My Father but you have disbonored Me"
 The world stands guilty Of this indictment. Relig ious statistics furnish the proof. There are 1726 millions of human beings. Of these, 683 millions are Christians, and 1C43 millions are on-Christians. Of the Christians, 305 millions are Catholics; 22O millions are Pro-
 
 testants and 158 millions are Schis- matics. Of the non- Christians, 79O millions are Pagans; 240 millions are Mohammedans, and 13 millions are Jews. These figures show us that in spite of the very first com mandment of God: T am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have strange Gods, before Me- over one billion people, are in a sense, in rebellion against God. So when we consider this array of non-Chris- tians, we are brought face to face with the sad but true fact: Sixty per cent, or three fifths of all human beings in the world deny the very Divinity of Christ.

CHEvALIER HAS NEW RIU MPH
 IN "BIG POND"
Clever Comedy Drama with Music Shows for Last
 Times Tonight

Maurice Chevalier triumphs in Big Pond,' a comedy drama with music, which will be shown for the last times tonight at the Coliseum theatre.
 In "The Big Pond" Maurice is seen and heard as young French man of poor but honorable family who is suddenly projected into American business. AS guide to a party of Americans in Venice, Maurice becomes enamcred of Clau- dette Colbert, daughter of an Am erican chewing gum manufacturer. Scheme Against Maurice
 Her father and her rival, seeing Maurice as a fortune-hunting for eigner, concoct a scheme to make him regret that he ever planned to visit the States. They offer him a job in the gum factory He accepts and shortly afterward finds himself doing the toughest tasks in the plant. But the plot to make his work disagreeable and thus belittle him in the eyes Of C1audette, goes awry, for the plot ters had not calculated on the am- bitten and genius of Maurice. High Pressure C0urtship Of course he wins Claudette, by applying high-pressure business tac- tics to his romantic cause.
 You brought a New Kind of Love to Me" is the hit song of the production. Maurice sings it along with other melodies.
 Claudette Colbert, heading the support, is splendid. Others who give fine character portrayals are George Barbier, Frank Lyon and Marion Ballou. Added attractions are: "He Loved the Ladies'" Glacier Secrets" "Tne Talkies" and Paramount News.

Permits for 100000 Gallons
This Year to Be Issued, With
Stock on Hand 100000

Although there has been a sub
stantial demand for liberalization
Of restrictions on prescriptions for
medicinal liquor, the limitation
on production for 1881 will re-
main at 100000 gallons. DR.. J.
M. Doran, chief of the Bureau of
Industrial Alcohol. announced
today.
Permits to three rye whisky
. distilIerieS in Pennsylvania and
/ three Bourbon diStillerieS in Ken
) tucky will be granted immedi-
ately. Seventy per cent Of the
: new whisky is Bourbon.
" 100000 Gallons on Hand
. So far, no diversion of medicinal
whisky has been charged and the
inspection system has proved
satisfactory.
At the beginning of the year,
100000 gallons of old medicinal
liquor stocks were on hand, with
q consumption approximately L.
100000 gallons. There was a
slight gain in stocks during the
year.
Treasury regulations provide for
issuance of liquor after it has
aged five years, or after the old
stocks have been exhausted.
Some Of the liquor on hand
when manufacture was resumed
Is more than 20 years old, the
finest medicinal variety probably
ever issued in this country.
Law Sets Restrictions
At the time the prohibition
amendment went into effect there
were more than 100000 gallons
Of liquor in Government ware
houses. This was substantially
reduced by evaporation, leakage
and theft before provision was
made for repleniShment.
The WickerSham Commission
recommended physicians be given
virtually a free hand in prescrib-
ing whisky and found one cause
Of resentment against prohibition
is restrictions on medicinal liquor.
Most of these restrictions are
provided by law and no change
can be made by the Treasury
Department without Congressional
authority.

HURLEY ATTACK
WITHDRAWN
BY SCHALL
Blind Minnesota Senator Re-
tracts Charges, But Fails
to Apologize As Demanded

The bitter oratorical blast Of
Senator Thomas D. Schall (RJ
Of Minnesota, against Secretary
OF War Patrick j. Hurley, which
threatened to bring the Shoreham
Building receivership into the
aren' or national politics yester-
day, drew to an amicable finale
today.
Senator Schall withdrew his
fiery words, in which he imputed
that Attorney General Mitchell
was protecting" Secretary Hur-
ley in connection with the Swart-
zell, Rheem and Hensey collapse,
having them expunged from the
Cons essional Record.
Apology" Still Asked
The issue of an apology" from
the blind Senator to the War
Secretary has not been ironed out,
according to indications today.
Secretary Hurley, upon hearing
of Senator Schall's charges, stated
that he was a Stockholder in the
Shoreham Investment Company,
owner of the Shoreham Building,
but had no further connection
with the project.
He also said that he was a
former owner of the Hurley
Wright building, Eighteenth Street
and Pennsylvania Avenue N. W.,
which has been occupied during
and since the World War by
number of Government bureaus.
He disposed of his holdings in
this structure recently, he said.
In view of these unequivocal
statements, Senator Schall deter
mined to wipe out the imputa-
tionS he had made against two
Cabinet members.
The blind Senator's outburst
on the floor Of the Senate yes
terday is an off-Shoot of patron
age row in which he and Attor-
ney General Mitchell are en-
gagged.
Row Over Patronage
Senator Schall wants President
Hoover to appoint Ernest Michel
as Federal judge in Minnesota.
The Attorney General regards
the Senator's choice as utterly
unfit" for the judicial ernine and
has announced his unalterable op-
position to the appointment. The
Senator has made several attacks
upon the Attorney General on
the floor of the Senate recently.
President Hoover grew impa-
tient over the row yesterday and
wrote a letter to Senator Schall
asking him to withdraw Michel's
name and to recommend others.
The Minnesotan declined to do
so, and made it clear that Admin
istration influence would not
Swerve him from his choice.
Senator Schall made a bitter
attack upon a number of other
Federal judgeship nominations
which Attorney General Mitchell
had indorsed, and promised to
place more facts regarding them
before President Hoover.
