 and appropriating therefor the sum of $10,0C0,000, was introduced in Con- gress by Representative William P. Connery, jr., of Massachusetts. In the original bill provision was only made for the States, the Territories being inadvertently m.tted. However, when Delegate Wickersham brought the omission to the attention of Repre- sentative oCnnery.. he promised to have the bill amended so as to have Alaska included as a Territory. This was done and the amended bill, H. K. 8765, was approved by the committee on labor Feb. 5, and favorably recom- mended for passage. It is now on the House calendar, and an effort is making by interested organizations throughout the United States-and Alaska should take similar action7-to impress Congress with the necessity for this relief measure. If it passes, the Government would provide to the States or Territories one-third of the sum paid to residents 65 years old or aver when the payment is not in ex- cess of $1 per day.
 The Interior Department gives as surance that the coal bunker at Sew ard will be constructed this spring. General Manager Ohlson, of the Alas ka Railroad, made a trip to Talla- hasse, Fla, to examine a modern con- struction which is suitable to Alaska, and is now preparing plans for a sim liar bunker at Seward.
 The other evening R. Harvey Sar- gent, topographic engineer of the Geological Survey, and who has made 22 visits to Alaska, gave an illus trated lecture in Washington on Alaska" Among the interesting features were motion pictures of a recent aerial survey in which MT. Sargent participated.
 The bill of Delegate Wickersham to establish supreme court for the Ter ritory of Alaska will likely require amendment before it can be passed. The committee on judiciary referred the bill to the Department of Justice for consideration. After suggesting a few minor amendments Attorney General Mitchell wrote: "While it may appear upon further study that this proposal is desirable and should eventually be enacted, it is not abso- lutely essential at this time, and in view of the present financial situation I recommend against it's enactment" " In other words, the Department is cutting to the bone every possible ex- penditure and new suggestion that would carry an additional sum of money. It is expected that the bill would be approved if it carried no ad- ditional expense. This could be done by eliminating the appointment of an additional judge to serve as chief jus-

 It is said that the reappointment of Charles D. Jones as U. s. Marshal of the Nome division is meeting with comparatively little opposition and he will likely soon be confirmed by the Senate. The appointment of judges for the Nome and Fairbanks divisions are soon expected.
 The next hearing on the bill to re- peal the Alaska Bone Dry Law will be held by the committee on terri tories on Feb. 16, with indications that the bill in it's present form will not be favorably reported. Some of the members of the committee are in- ciined to favor amendments to the bill, but not it's repeal.
 The Federal Radio Commission has granted A. A. McCue permission to change location from Boca de Quadra to Kassan. Licenses have been grant ed to the Bristol Bay Packing Go. at Kvichak and to the Alaska Salmon Co. at Nushagak. The Radiomarine Corporation of America has been granted authority to operate aboard the Santa Ana 60 days. The Alaska Packers Association asks permission to change transmitter at Chignik. The Nakat Packing Corporation want re- newal of licenses at Watefall, Bristol Bay, Hidden Inlet, and Union Bay, and the Alaska Pacific Salmon Cor poration asks renewal at Ketchikan and Funter Bay.
 Nome is very pronounced in its pro- test against the passage of the bill that would consolidate the Second and Fourth judicial divisions. The Dele gate has received protests from the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce, City of Nome, Igloo No. l Pioneers of Alaska, Nome Republican Club, Nome Bar Association, Bering Native Brotherhood, Camp 9 Arctii Brotherhood, District Attorney Sul- livan, Marshal Jones, Rev. Baldwin, superintendent Methodist Mission.
 With a small part of the season still remaining, the take of fox pelts from the colony of the Pribilof Islands, Alaska, already has been the largest in forty years, and discloses the success of supervisory work by the Bureau of Fisheries, according to information made available at the Department of Commerce. The take so far this season has been 1,426 pelts, 511 more than the total for all last season. The following additional information was supplied:
 The take from St. Paul Island in- cluded 289 blue and 25 white foxes. That from St. George Island was LIP blue foxes. The pelts taken from animals of the St. George coI- ony are handpicked by Government employees so that the breeding stock will not be dissipated.
 Records show that from 1842 until 1860, when the islands were held by Russia, the average annual take was 1929, which dropped to -1,240 in the years between 1871 ands1890. Since 1890 there have been but four, seasons when the take was mnrei than 1000 pelts.

The DramatiStS Guild is planning
to place plays by eminent play
wrights for their first presentation,
with the many Little Theaters of
the United States. 1t is DunnS
idea that has been adopted by the
Dramatists' Guild, and will be de-
veloped by special bureau organ
lied under Dunn's own supervision.
The plays are to be accepted by
the bureau for anonymous presen-
tation under working title rather
than that name under which they
will later appear. They will be sub
mitted to the little theaters under
an agreement which will permit the
fullest freedom of treatment in
staging, but which will require the
actual presentation of the entire
text. The authors will be required
to stay away from rehearsals. The
usual royalties will be charged, 10
per cent of their sum to go to the
Dramatists' Guild.
The PLAN" Dunn said, will open
to dramatiStS of recognized standing
a new field of opportunity. There
are many little theaters in the
United States which have devel-
oped companies of expert and tale
ented players. They have hitherto
had to wait until the commercial
possibilities of a play have been ex-
hausted before they have had a
chance to offer it to their clientele.
THE dramatistS, on the other
hand, have been cramped by the
increasing Importance, in COM
mercial sense, of the picture rights.
Thsir plays have been judged from
the marketable standpoint of their
value not as plays, but as possible
motion picture material.
Under the new plan which the
Dramatists' Guild has adopted, the
play will be judged for production
by the play reading committee of

OLD FASHIONED
STORY AT APOLLO

The charm Of Marian Nixon is
to be seen in the Fox film version
of the famous Kate Douglas Wig
gin and Charlotte Thompson mas
terpiece, "Rebecca of Sunnybrook
Farm" once made famous by Mary
Pickford, and now appearing cur
rently at the Apollo.
AS enacted by her, Rebecca is an
imaginative child, whose penchant
for adopting every ones troubles,
a remembered trait of the heroine
in the original book, is again made
the motivating influence of the
plot.
Opening at Sunnybrook farm,
created for the filming in all its
peaceful beauty near Santa Cruz,
Cal, the film story carries Rebecca
quickly to her aunt's home in
Riverboro.
Here she lives with Aunts Jane
and Miranda, played by Mae Marsh
and Louise Closer Hale, a process
that involves many heartaches in
the learning. Here, too, Rebecca
finds Jack-O-Lantern, son of the
village ne'er- do-well, played by Al
Ian Hale, and an unWed mother,
portrayed by Eula Guy.
Her innocent and quite under
standable attempt to adopt Jack-O
as a member of the aunts' house
hold is met with stern rebuke
from the puritanical, cold-hearted
Aunt Miranda; but she finds solace
in the appealing sympathy given
her by Aunt Jane and by the kindly
understanding DR.. Adam Ladd, a
part thought to be made believable
by Ralph Bellamy in his first en-
tirely sympathetic role.
His stout defense of Rebecca wins
for DR.. Laid the right to pay court
for her hand, a privilege which he
assumes with much eagerneSs.
Their fine inspirational romance
builds the strong bulwark against
which they stand when the drama
reaches its climax, a time when it
appears that Rebecca'S ideals and
all her hopes are to be shattered.
Others in the cast are Sarah
Padden, Alphonz Either, Charlotte
Henry, Claire MacDowell, and Will

DOUBLE FEATURE
NOW AT CIRCLE

A quick courtShip, quicker
honeymoon, and husband who,
even more quickly disappears from
the life of his affectionate wife.
These are some of the ingredients
and there are said to be more
just as copiously packed with heart
Juggling drama-in "The Man From
Yesterday" Paramount's newest Of
fering, featuring Claudette Colbert
and Give Brook. This film began
its run with a premiere Thursday
night, and will continue for one
week.
In "The Man From Yesterday"
Brook appears as a British army
officer, role which is not new to
him, since he only recently donned
the olive drab in Shanghai Elk
press" He marries a nurse (Miss
Colbert) in the hectic last hours of
a leave of absence in Paris during
a bombing raid. Their impetuous
wedding, nevertheless a sincerely
romantic one, is suddenly termi-
mated when Brook is called back
to the battle front.
Brook, thought dead, meets
Claudette several years later, after
she has fallen in love with Charles
Boyer, French surgeon. Claud-
cite persuades Brook that her
friendship is meaningless, and that
she will never forget her duty as
his wife.
She tries faithfully to make a
go of the outworn love, but Brook
is sure that she is impelled more
by q sense of duty than by ro-
mantle regard for their haSty mar
riage. 1t is at this point that the
picture is brought to a dramatical-
ly filled climax.
In addition to the feature picture,
the special attraction, killing to
Live" is also offered on the Circles
current program. This added film
tells the story of the unrelenting
struggle for survival in the ami
NAL kingdom - with thrilling
glimpses of rare wild animals as
they search for food, court their
mates, and guard their young.
killing to Live" was actually
photographed in the remote deserts
of Asia and Armenia, on the unin-
habited islands of the Aral sea, and
on the steppes of the Ukraine.

Red Headed Woman" Katherine
Brushs widely-read novel of a
stenographer who capitalized On her
sex appeal, comes to the screen at
last with Jean Harlow, her famous
platinum blonde hair change to
a flaming red, in the title role.
The picture opened Friday at
Loew's Palace. Practically every
red-haired actress in Hollywood
was given tests for this highly
coveted part before decision was
reached by Metro Goldwyn- Mayer
officials to assign the role to Miss
Harlow, providing she would change
the color of her tresSeS.
Report has it that the alteration
has given the noted heroine of
"Hells Angels an entirely new

upon her employer, Bill Legendre,
despite the fact that he is a married
man, with the upshot that Bills
wife divorces him and Lii becomes
the second Mrs. Legendre. Not con-
tent with having broken up one
home, the socially ambitious ex-
stenographer now centers her at
tentions upon Wealthier man.
1t is impossible, however, for the
sexy Lii to be faithful to any one
man and when she attempts to
double-cross her latest flame" by
having an affair with his chauffeur,
complications begin and the clever
Lii finds that she's got to be even
cleverer if she's going to achieve
her ends.
Just how she does il makes up
what is believed to besone of the
most amusing and interesting plots
used on the screen in some time.
