WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 20.- Sealing a new bond of trans-At- lantic friendship. Italy and the United States have called on other great Powers to do their bit for naval disarmament and re-estab- lishment of stability.
 The two governments announced their common purpose in joint statement terminating two days of conferences between Preside n t Hoover and Premier Mussolini's Foreign Minister Dino Grandi.
 The statement was issued after a meeting that carried clear implica- tions of a perfect Italo- American accord for definite results of next Springs Disarmament Conference.

JUST IMAGINE OPENS TONIGHT
 AT COLISEUM
Spectacular Pro du C t ion Shows What World
 Will Be Tn 1880

There is something new under the sun.
 You will see it tonight at the Coliseum, when the premiere show ing of Just Imagine" will be giv- en.
 Just Imagine" is a spectacularly original picture in theme and treat ment, and is superlative entertain ment.
 The scene is laid in 1880 setting, when the world has changed ma terially in virtually every element except romance, The story of the love of the "Lindbergh of 1980' in the person of John Garrick for Ndaureen O'Sullivan is beset with the traditional difficulties of TO- nance of all time, but, of course, this being a musical comedy, true love conquers in the end
 Fl Brendel, the hilariously funny Sv edish comedian, has the princi- pal role and moves in and out of the story at frequent intervals providing generous portion of comedy, his second great success this season, having scored in Raoul Walsh's epic, "The Big Trail He is ably assisted by the vivacious Marjorie White and Frank Albert son, the latter essaying his first light comedy role with marked success. David Butler, who directed the first DeSylva, Brown and Tender son opus, Sunny Side Up,p has far exceeded his fine work on that production in the present offer- ing. The same may be said oi Seymour Felix, who directed the cance ensembles. He has two spec tasular numbers in Just Imagine, that far surpass his sensational Turn on the Heat" offering ir Sunny Side Up" t Song hits include Pm Only ths Words, You are the Melody" "Olo Fashioned Girl" and Never Swat a Fly being particularly outstand- 1 ing. The two instrumental num- bers which supply the accompanl- raent for the big dance numbers are particularly excellent, and also will prove popular with the fox trot fans.
