RONALD COLMAN IN
 "RAFFLES" AND VICTOR
 McLAGLEN AT NEW GARDEN

The headline attraction at the New Garden theater to-day and to-mor- row is United Artists super feature Rallies with Ronald Colman and Kay Francis.
 'Raffles" was to criminals what Sherlock Holmes was to detectives,- a figure of mystery, aloof. aristo- cratic,-a master artist, as sure and keen in the perpetration of a crime as the great detective was in hunting out the criminal. Ronald Colman offers to the fa- nous character all of its traditional daring and adventure, and an added charm that is peculiarly Colman. His sly humor, his crisp speech, his smooth and polished manner are as integral part of "Raffles" as they were to Bulldog Drummond."
 A gentle love story, warm in the feelings of real people, is interwoven through this thriller. That Kay Francis plays opposite Colman is it's guarantee of ideal casting.
 Mona Maris, the Argentine beauty, who enacted Latin roles in Romance of Rio Grande' and "The Arizona Kid," is again a Spanish heroine in Victor McLaglen's latest Fox Movie- tone, IA Devil With Women," which is the co-feature, Irving Cummings directed. The action of the film takes place in a Central American Republic, during an uprising.

President Hoover to-day and imme- d1ately after his return to the navy department 1t was reported that inn portant changes were being made in the papers bringing charges on which Major General Smedley D.. Butler U. s. M. C., is to face court martial
 Adams went to the White House immediately after a conference in the office of the judge advocate of the navy where the charges against Butler had been drawn up. It was believed that he took the papers with him.
 He entered the White House through a rear entrance and left the same way. He would say noth- ing as to the purpose of his visit al- though 1t was believed certain it con- cerned the Butler case.
 The activities of Adams and MT Hoover added to an already strong belief that considerable clemency will be exercised in dealing with Buffers case although it was deemed improbable that the court-martial would be entirely abandoned.
 Immediately after Adams return to the navy department, word was passed unofflcially that alterations were being made in the charges against Butler. There was no in- timation of any sort. however. as to what these alterations might be.
 The papers were drafted Saturday but Adams. it was believed. had not seen them until just before his visit to the White House. The expecta- tions was that they would be com pleted in final form this afternoon.

Lawyer Larkin
 and His Bills
(Continued from Page D

in are as follows: An act, providing for the nomination of the judge of the common pleas court by the legis- lature rather than by the judges; an act providing for the appoint ment of the prosecutor of the court by the judge and deputy judge, said as either the judge or deputy judge are in office; an act providing for the appointment of the clerk and assistant clerk by the judge and dep- uty judge of the court, said appoint ment to be in effect as long as the judge and deputy judge are in office.
 At the present time the judge makes the appointments of the prosecuting attorney and clerk. The deputy judge has nothing to say in the matter.
 But if Attorney Larkin's bill pass es the judge and deputy judge would have to con : on the nam- ing of the prosecutor and the clerk and assistant clerk. Otherwise, the present incumbent would hold over.
 But in order to hide the princi- pie purport of the Larkin bills, the measure providing for the naming of the judge of the court has been en- tered which would place the power of nominating the judge in the hands of the assembly and take it away from the governor.
 Should this latter bill fail and the other bills pass, Attorney Larkin would still be safeguarded, for. it is clearly apparent. Deputy Judge Miles McNin, a republican. would approve Attorney Larkin while a

 Parasites Reared in Basement
 "New duties are accepted each year, which involves the addition of men and women to our staff or plac- ing further work on those already employed. In the fall of 1929, the station in cooperation with the Connecticut Pomological society be- gan a project of raising parasites for the oriental peach moth, a pest that made peach-raising almost im- possible in this state. Parasites were produced and distributed, and last summer clean, healthy crop of peaches, largely free from the insect, was grown in Connecticut. It was estimated that $100,O00 was saved in reducing this infestation.
 Rearing these parasites was &C., complished in four different parts of the station, no other space being available. Most of the work was done in portions of basement that were boarded up for this particular work. Affording little light and air, these rooms are not only uncomfort- able and inconvenient, but unhealthy to the men we must ask to work in them. Such conditions, we believe, are unfair to anyone, and they les sen the efficiency of men who have been trained for years to do scien- tlnc research, which must be done with complicated apparatus under controlled conditions

Greta Carlo with Robert
 Montgomery In Inspiration"
 Thrills Audiences at the State

The Greta Garbo of languishing loves, of exotic boudoirs, of passion ate glamour-the Garbo we knew 50 we'll on the silent screen, comes back to us with more power than ever in Inspiration" her new Me- ro-Goldwyn-Mayer starring vehicle now in it's last two days at the War ner Bros. State theater.
 This glittering new talking pie ture, ably directed by Clarence Brown, eclipses her previous vocal efforts and, in the opinion of this re- viewer, stands as the greatest tri- umph of her career. Hers is 8 hu- man characterization, devoid of the slightest artificial ring, lifting the role of the Partisan demi-mondaine to dramatic. heights.
 Robert Montgomery furthers his hold on screen popularity by his splendid work opposite the star. Browns direction keeps the story moving s.t fluid pace and is mas terful in sophistry and ingenious camera angles.

Conrad Nagel and Loretta Young in Principal Roles of "Right of Way" at State Wednesday.

"The Right of Way" Sir Gilbert Parker's famous novel, once so suc- cessfully dramatized on the stage, is coming to the Warner Bros State theater Wednesday in cinema garb.
 Conrad Nagel, Loretta Young, Fred Kohler, William Janney, Em- melt King, Harry Cording. Brandon Hurst and other favorites head ths all-star cast.

 Said to be one of the greatest basic dramas in fiction, "The Right of Way deals with the attempted regeneration of a very hard. strange man who loses his inhumanity with his memory, and gets it back again when memories of the past return.
 At the same time it presents one of the finest love stories the screen has recorded, and one totally differ ing in inception and ending.

yard in Philadelphia. Whether it will be open or secret will be decid- ed by the seven high navy and ma rine officers selected to sit in the court martial.
 It was learned that Butler has ap- piled for leave to come to Washing ton from Quantico, Va. where he is under technical arrest, to confer with his attorney. The navy depart- ment insisted, however, that 1t has not yet received such an application.
 Washington, Feb 2-(UP)-There were indications to-day that the court-martial charges against Major General Smedley D. Butler, U. 5. M. c. growing out of his alleged derog- atory remarks concerning Premier Benito Mussolini of Italy. may not be nearly as severe as at first antici- pated.
 Mussolini's comment, in his note accepting the American apology for Buffers remarks, that he has for gotten the incident is believed to have given the basis for more charitable view by persons in high places upon the generals conduct.
 Secretary of the Navy Charles Francis Adams will see President Hoover at the White House to-day and it was generally believed they will discuss the Butler case. MT Hoover is understood to be among those in favor of tempering the courtmartial proceedings with elem ency. Adams, on the other hand, reportedly views the case as one which should be dealt with firmly.
 There were reports that the court martial might be dropped and the general merely reprimanded with out being forced to stand trial. Au- thorities on naval and military law. and on diplomatic niceties, however. were of the opinion that, once the courtmartial has progressed to the point of naming the court arresting the defendant, and apologizing to the offended party, it will be neces- sary to 50 through with the trial.
 They agreed. however. that the

Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from in- active bowels and liver.

$50,000 Urged For
 State Laboratory
Agricultural Experiment Station Board of Control Claims
 Present Facilities Overcrowded

New Haven, Feb 2-Crowded and difficult conditions in the states laboratories where scientists work with the fundamental problems of how to feed human beings and how to raise food free of the pests Con- necticut is prey to, are described in a statement issued to-day by the executive committee of the Connecti- cut agricultural experiment station board of control.
 The statement follows a bill intro- duced by Mrs Joseph w. Alsop of Avon asking the general assembly for $5O,000 for new laboratory. The members of theexecutive com mittee are Elijah Rogers of South ington, pr Edward c. Schneider, professor of physiology at Wesleyan university, George A. Hopson, farm CT, of Mount Carmel, and w. L.. Slate, director of the station.
 "This item not having been in- cluded in the budget now before the legislature, we feel that our need for more space is not understood" the statement said. "We have spon- sored this bill with the hope of nak- ing the situation known to the reo- pie of the state.
 1.-TWO years ago we placed the re- quest for new laboratory in the estimates presented to the general assembly and the fund was struck out of the budget. In the mean time, the situation of working space
