AKRON TO START HOP
FOR PACIFIC SOON
Dirigible's Trip, Set for April 10
or 20, May Include the Ha-
waiian Islands.

The U. S. S. Akron, giant Navy air
ship, will leave the naval air station at
Lakehurst, N. j., April 19 or 20 bound
for the Pacific Coast and possibly the
Hawaiian Islands.
The West Coast cruise was delayed
when the Akron was damaged while be-
ing moved out of the Lakehurst shed on
February %
While in California the Akron prob
ably will participate with units OF the
feet in maneuvers which will go long
way toward determining the exact place
of the airship in the naval tactics OF the
future.
The Akron will be commanded by
Lieut. Comdr Charles E. Rosendanl.
who recently was ordered to sea duty
aboard the U. S. S. Virginia. His tour
of duty with the Akron, however, VIII

to continue in command during the

The itinerary for the Western flight
has not been fixed, though naval ofn-
GERS said it probably will be made TO the
Pacific Coast over the Southern route,
which probably will bring the big air
ship over the National Capital.

BAY STATE ACCORD
0. K. TO ROOSEVELT.
Indicates He Was Willing to
Meet Rival for Delegation
Half Way.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, March 24.-The Boston
Traveller today said a reply from Gov
Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York 20
an inquiry several days ago for a
definite statement of his position in the
fight for Massachusetts, presidential
delegates, indicates he would have been
willing to have compromised with the
forces of former Gov. Alfred E. Smith.
The Governors reply said:
Some time ago I gave my son James
the definite authorization to be used
only in the event that Mr. Donahue was
not willing to 60 along with some kind
of formula which would have made
contest wholly unnecessary"
The authorization referred to was the
power of attorney, which under Massa-
chusetts statutes is necessary to allow
candidates for delegates to a national
convention to be recorded as pledged to
particular presidential candidate.
Donahue is Frank J. Donahue, chair
man of the Democratic State Commit
tee and leader of the Smith forces.
Donahue recently filed the authorize
ton of former Gov Smith for the use
of his name in the forthcoming pri-
maries. The Smith slate issued by
Donafue. is headed by United States
Senators David I. Walsh and Marcus A.
Coolidge and Gov. Joseph B. Ely.
Last minute efforts to effect a COM
promise between the Roosevelt and
Smith forces were unsuccessful.

ROOSEVELT Wins
. e GEORGIA VOTES
"Grand Slam" Against Gar
ner Candidate Expected on
Complete Returns.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, March 24.-Ciov. Franklin
D. Roosevelt won Georgia's % conVen-
ton votes in yesterdays Democratic
presidential preference primary BY over
whelming Judge G. H. Howard OF At
lanta. who advocated the candidacy of
Speaker John Garner.
The New York executive had popu-
lar plurality of approximately 10 to
on the latest tabulation, and 1913 Of the
possible 410 county unit votes had been
placed In his column, with counties
missing. Judge Howard was leading
only in Catoosa County, and newspaper
correspondents there said complete re-
turns would give the county to Roose-
welt.
Grand Slam" Predicted.
Latest returns gave Roosevelt 5l,07l
popular votes to Towards 5,717. If he
captures Catoosa County's two unit
votes and wins in the five missing coun-
ties, as his supporters have predicted,
he will score a grand slam with 4l0
county unit votes and have the unani-
nous approval of the State convention.
Georgia was the first Southern State
to hold a preference primary. 1t Is the
adopted State of Gov. Roosevelt, who
visits Warm Springs regularly for his
health. The State dominates its Demo-
cratic candidates on an unusual unit
system. Each Of the 159 counties has
twice as many votes in the State con-
yention as it has representatives in the
lower house of the State Legislature.
Four counties, with a total OF eight
unit votes, did not hold elections, but
the votes automatically go in the WIN
ner's column.
The winner names county delegates
to the State convention, which selects
representatives to the national con-
vention. The State convention will
meet here April and will send RooSe-
welt delegates to the national conven-
ton in Chicago.
To Back Roosevelt.
Judge Howard, who promised to give
his support to Garner at the convention,
conducted a vigorous fight. L. Thomas
(Pat) Gillen, who managed his cam
paign, pledged allegiance to Gov. Roose-
Welt if he is nominated at Chicago.
Gov. Roosevelt carried many boxes
unanimously. The Roswell district IN
Cobb County, home of the mother OF
Theodore Roosevelt, gave him lis votes
and Howard none. Warm Springs gave
the Governor 218 and Howard l.

NEW YORK, March "a (P).-The
prediction that former Gov. Alfred E.
Smith Of New York will capture all of
Massachusetts, presidential delegates in
the primary April rs was made yester-
day by Gov. Joseph B. Ely of Massa-
chusetts, who came here to ofhciate at
the launching of new liner.
A compromise between Smith and
Roosevelt forces is impossible, he said.
adding, Massachusetts, is all Smith and
there is no compromise in view"
Gov. Roosevelt, he said, had a chance
to capture few delegates but he added
the personal opinion that Smith would
get them ali. He said he did not think
Smith supporters would put on much
of campaign, despite the radio cam
psign being conducted in RooSevelt's
behalf.
Roosevelt's entry into the primary,
said Ely, has aroused so much enmity'
it is probable he may not receive sup

CAPITOL SHOWS CHARLIE CHAPLIN l IN CITY LICHTS'
Every Woman at Tonight s Performances to Re-
 ceive Silverware

Charlie Chaplin in "City Lights will b ethe headline attraction on the new program tonight at the Capitol theatre.
 Tonight is Silver Night" Every woman attending either of to- nights performances will receive a piece of table silverware.
 There will be no midnight mati- nee at the Capitol tonight.
 City Lights" is absolutely de- void of dialogue. but it has fascin- ating musical synchronization and sound effects.
 Two Years To Make
 More than two years in the making and with an expenditure of close to $1,500,000 the photoplay is an original idea and was writ ten by Chaplin. It is a simple story of everyday life in any large city, with a human treatment in the style for which the producer is noted.
 A majority of all the music used throughout the action is original and was created by Chaplin and arranged by Arthur Johnston, as- sociated with the Irving Berlin Company.
 City Was Constructed
 An entire city was constructed within the Chaplin plant in Holly wood for City Lights" This was made necessary, although at tre- mendous cost, because it was found impossible for the comedian to work in the streets while garbed in his famous attire. Ten thousand or more persons were employed to portray the inhabitants of the city.
 More than any production Chap lin has ever offered "City Lights is the most extensive. T.
 Some Massive Settings
 Some of the massive settings in clude the business district; slums, theatrical section; a prizefight sta- dium; a river and it's embankment; a huge and gay cafe and the ex- quisite rooms of a millionaire's s mansion. The action represents that which goes on in any large citiy anywhere.
 There are three characters vital to the story. One is a tramp, as enacted by Chaplin; another a flower girl who is blind and DOT trayed by Virginia Cherrill and the other an eccentric millionaire, by Harry Myers. And of importance to these thfee, the girls grand mother, Flotence Lee; the mil- lionaire's butler, Allan Garcia, and a prizefgihtef, Hank Mann.
