ArIiss Will Play
Monarch on
Vacation
BY HARRISON CARROLL
Copyright, 1892. King Features
syndicate incl

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, Oct. 26.
Liking all three stories Warmers
have lined up for. him, George
ArliSs has had a hard time pick
ing his next picture. Yesterday,
however, he and Daryl Zanuck
finally decided upon The Kings
Vacation" an original by Ernest
Pascal.
When I tell you that the cen
tral character is a monarch who
goes out incognito and has a
swell time, you'll agree that the
role is ideal to exploit the Arliss
suavity and sense of humor.
While no one else is chosen
for the picture as yet, Warmers
promise that the cast will con-
tain more big names than in any
previous ArliSs film. Undoubtedly
John Adolf will continue to di-
rect the English actor.
And, for a future note, you can
write it down that THE Adopted
Father" is scheduled to follow
THE Kings Vacation" There
are no definite plans, as yet, for
the Voltaire story that Paul
Green is writing.

Roscoe Ates pulled neat gag
upon the autograph seekers at
the premiere of "A Bill of Di-
vorcement." When they asked
him to sign their books, he
passed over a slip Of paper with
his name written on one side and
a gummed surface on the other.
They could paste it right in. On
this same occasion, a pretty star
let-no, won't tell you her
name-showed up with short
speech all ready to read into the
microphone. Not such bad idea,
either. But a sweller gag, I
think, would have been to step
up and read: I'm so glad to be
here tonight and I'm sure this
is going to be a great picture" !"

 Alaska, all under the Department of Justice The term of Judge G. J. Lomen at Nome expired in the spring of 1880 and his reappoint- nlent was sent to the Senate about a year ago. The Judiciary com mittee, however, decided not to recommend his confirmation, but his successor has not yet been named. Tn the case of Marshal Chas. D. Jones, who was reappoint- ed a year ago, objection was made to his confirmation but no action was taken by the Judiciary com mittee, and he continues to serve. Tn the Third Division Marshal Harvey P. Sullivan'S term expired last year but his successor has not been named. A similar situation exists in the Fourth Division, where Judge Cecil H. Clegg has just com pleted his 10th year, but he has not received an appointment tc the third term Assistant Attorney General SiSsOn, in charge of the Administrative Department, has in dicated that he will take up these appointments with Delegate Wick ersham after the holiday recess. There are various applicants for the several appointments. The fact that the Department has had a bill introduced in Congress to com bine the Second or Nome division with the Fourth or Fairbanks divi- sion, effective July next, will not necessarily interfere with appoint ments, as the bill may not pass. Among the recess appointments sent to the Senate was that of Le- roy M. Sullivan, District Attorney at Nome.

16 Per Cent Of Value.
Analyzing the national construction
contracts, Mr. Schnitman finds that
on a valuation basis alterations and
additions during the first quarter ac-
counted for 16 per cent of the total
value of all construction awards.
On hoor-space basis somewhat less
than 8 per cent was for additions to
existing buildings.
Non-residential building benefited
most from the alterations and addi-
tions, whether measured from the
standpoint of number of projects, floor
space or contract values, he finds.
Commercial buildings, principally
offices and stores and factory buildings,
have faster rate of obsolescence than
most other structural types, and hence
require more continuous moderniza-
tion," Mr.. Schnitman continues. In
the case Of factory buildings, which are
usually planned for specific industrial
uses, large alterations may be and
often are necessary when such space is
to be converted to other industrial uses
than those for which the buildings were
originally designed.

A remarkable film, rich in enter

udes the exotic fragrance of the

famous stage classic, Bird Of Para
disc"
The finished result, guided in its
transformation from stage to cellu-
loid by the genius Of King Vidor,
opened at the Capitol Theatre, with
Dolores Del Rio as the primitive
trusting Luana. with Joel McCrea as
the smitten hero. Johnny Baker. This
Is the film for which RKO-Radio
Pictures sent company to the Ha-
vaiian Islands TO get authentic back
ground. The scenic photography Of
fers inspired compositions Of tropical
foliage. mountain, sky and sea that
are breath-taking in their beauty.
The play Is q simple story Of a love
that transcends all religions and laws
There IS an intangible something K
this tragic story Of Luana who falls
hopelessly In love woth a white man
and as hopelessly sacrifices that love
that demands setting in sympathy
with the sublime character OF hel
sacrifice.

MORTALITY HIGH.
IN APPENDICITIS

Mortality from appendicitis is
higher in the United States than
in other countries from which
records are available, and Wash
ington'S rate is above the aver
age for this country, according
to DR.. Joseph P. Shearer, speak
ing today before the Medical So
ciety of the District of Columbia
in the society'S auditorium.
DR.. Oliver c. Cox, however, told
of the treatment of 839 appen-
dicitis cases with a surprisingly
low mortality rate, and suggested
novel ideas in treatment. DR..
James A. Cahill, jr., offered a
contribution to the early dag
nosis of appendicitis.
DR.. Shearer showed that ap-
pendicitis mortality is increasing
in this country, 1900 persons
having died from it in 1929 as
against 1000 in 1920. Deaths
from cancer. heart diseases, cere-
bral hemorrhages, nephritis and
diabetes are also increasing, but
the life expectancy of the suffer
ers is also increasing, or at least
is comparatively high.

D. {. PLUMBING
RULE CHANGED

The District Commissioners
have adopted an amendment to
the local plumbing regulations
requiring that flue pipes from
either thermostatic-controlled or
manually-operated gas water
heaters shall not be connected
with a chimney flue until the
flue has been inspected and ap-
proved by an inspector of the
District plumbing department.
The new regulation was de-
signed to prevent recurrence of
fatalities similar to the one
which befell two persons at 1908
Holbrook st. N. E. on April %.
A coroner'S jury decided the
deaths occurred from carbon
mOnoXide gas poisoning as the
result of a faulty connection in
the gaS-heater pipe and held the
contractor, who installed the
heater, for Grand Jury action.

>> Winner, Altering Prestige
of Governor

Speaker John N. Garner S
apparent victory in the Cali
fornia primary considerably
changes the Democratic presi-
Dental outlook.
With the acquisition of
Cslifornia's Al delegates, the
Texans candidacy is auto
matically lifted out of the
favorite son class, and it now
appears that he will go into
the Chicago convention as the
second or third strongest can
didate in opposition to Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Is Deadly Blow
The California result was bit
terly disappointing to the Roose-
welt forces. They had been SUI
premely confident of carrying the
State-so much so, in fact. that
they have been saying privately
that "after California" a serious
effort would be made to per-
Suade minor candidates" to with
draw in the interests of party
harmony. The California returns
stopped that talk.
The loss of the delegates is
serious enough, but the blow to
Roosevelt prestige is lot more
serious. It comes on top Of the
reverses suffered in MasSachu.
sets, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island
and Connecticut. And. of course,
it gives tremendous impetus to
the whole "Stoo Roosevelt" move
ment. AS AL Smith phrased it,
California puts another chocS
under the Roosevelt bandwagOn." D."
Half Delegates Lost
1t is significant that in the
ten largest delegations that will
be at Chicago it now appears
Roosevelt will have only a minor
fraction of the delegates.
These 10 States in the order Of
their size are: New York, Penn
sylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Texas,
California, Michigan, dasSachu-
setts, Missouri and New Jersey.
They have a combined delegate
strength of 5t2, or nearly half the

Almost Immediately after a
jury was selected in Criminal
Division No. 2 of the District
Supreme Court today to try
Harry Yudelevit and John

ing a policeman, a defense at
torney asked that the jury be
dismissed.
The two men are charged with
assault with a dangerous weapon
and assault with attempt to kill.
Policeman Thomas D. Bacon. of
the First precinct, was shot sew
eral times in the legs when he
attempted to question the men
at Seventh and E SITS. N. W., early
in the morning of February 10.
Jury Finally Picked
Nearly the entire morning Ses-
sion of court was taken up in
selecting a jury. Attorneys for
both sides then approached the
bench, the defense stating that
certain evidence would be OBJ
jected to when the Government
seeks to introduce it.
For that reason, the judge
ruled that the evidence could not
be mentioned by the prosecution
in the opening statement to the
jury.
