Pointing out the alarming in
crease in traffic mishaps in re-
cent months, William A. Van
Duzer, director of traffic, today
declared the failure of motorists
to pay proper attention to right
of.way rules is largely responsible
for the increase.
The right-of-way regulations
provide that a motorist already
in an intersection, whether he
is making a turn or continuing
in the same direction, has the
right of way over all other ma
chimes not actually in the inter
section, Van Duzer explained.
Van Duzer emphasized the reg
ulation which gives pedestrians
the right-of-way at all intersec-
tions except those controlled by
traffic H>;htS, but issued a warn
ing against "jay-walkers." who,
he said, are responsible for a
large portion of traffic conges-
ton.
A warning to parents to keep
children under the age of off
the streets unless closely watched
was contained in the survey.
Traffic is a hazard to the very
young and the very old, it was
pointed out, and for this reason
they should be escorted when
they are out and subject to the
dangers of moving automobiles.
Failure of motorists to heed
traffic lights was scored in the
report which said that Police
Court Judge Isaac r. Hit, in

BLESSED EVENT WILL BE MOVIE, SHOW, CAPITOL
 
Lee Tracy Appears in Dashing Role in War
 ner Bros. Picture

Keyholing the keyholers is the unique and hilarious process by which the new Warner Brothers picture, Blessed Event." adapted from the famous stage play of the same name, provides audiences with an unusual hour of enter tainment. It comes to the Capi- tol theatre tomorrow.
 The sudden flare for confidential Journalism, which breaks down closet doors and brings family skeletons to light, predicts births, marriages and divorces before the principals involved want the world in general to know about them, has brought into existence . new kind of newspaper reporter, typi- fled by Lee Tracy in his dashing role as Alvin Roberts in Blessed Event"
 Naturally the life and activities of such a reporter are excellent material for screen comedy-dra- ma. A writer who treads con stantly on the toes of the public, must, of necessity, lead an excit- ing life. Alvin Roberts in "Bles- he'd Event" is no exception Based on the career and exploits of one of Broadway's most famous gossiping columnists, Blessed Ev- ent," has furious tempo and a tremendous punch"
 Lee Tracy has able support in this classic expose of modernistic journalism with Mary Brian, Ruth Donnelly, Ned Sparks Dick Pow ell, Milton Wallace, Emma Dunn and many others, several of whom were brought to Hollywood from the New York stage production of the play to carry their original roles. Roy Del Ruth directed.

JAMES CACNEY |. FEATURED STAR COLISEUM BILL.
Taxi Comes Tonight Loretta Young Has
 Feminine Lead


 James Cagney, co-starred with Loretta Young in "TaxiiNthe War ner Bros. production which oornss to the Coliseum Theatre tonight, will be gangs,7 no more. Such are the revolutionary tidings from Hollywood
 In this new vehicle, Cagney, late of The Public Enemy and Smart Money plays an honest young taxi-driver, while Loretta young will appear in the role of a cafeteria cashier.
 "Taxi!. has been adapted from a play written for the stage by Kenyon Nicholson ana titled Blind Spot" In predatory note to the scripts of the play, MT. Nicholson explains
 "The setting of this play is that part of New York City which lies bstween 34th and 4Oth Streets, west of Eighth Avenue. The char acters are the younger genera tion of that noisy over-crowded section. They are not crooks or gangsters = the author underlines this-"but honest, Working young people who live their lives to the fullest, obeying the tenets of their own moral and ethical codes as relignously as do their more fortunate brothers and sisters on Park Avenue" The role play ed by Cagney is said to be pe- culiarly suited to him, while rep resenting radical departure from the assignments. that have brought him his recent film celebrity.
 Loretta Young was substituted at the last moment for Joan Blon- dell in the leading feminine role of "Taxil" The latter actress was appearing with Douglas Fairbanks Jr., in Union Depot, which had not been finished when produc- tion time for "Taxil" arrived, so Miss Young's services were called upon.

CARED BLUES

STOCKHOLM. Aug. 12-Blue- walled bedrooms, a studio with six enormous armchairs, and light fixtures and draped with a blue butterfly design, will be a part of Greta Garbo's new home in Stock holm, according to the Dagens Nyheter, which claims information that the motion picture star has purchased a residence here.
 Garbo's taste, according to the newspaper, runs to the modern with calm but interesting colors
 The dining room is to have walls of oyster-tinted wood and the so- cial rooms have been specially de- signed by a Swedish architect with whom Garbo is said to have con- ferred repeatedly before she sail ed for California on a freight steamer.
 Much of the furniture has al- ready been selected, declares the newspaper, which claims that Gar bo will take up definite residence within two years.

High EXCHANGE is
PROVING UNDOIMG
OF TARIFF LAWS

Independent oil men of Amer
lea are supporting the proposed
measure to depreciate currency
so as to correct foreign exchange.
Owing to the fact that exchange
rates are high, foreign goods
can be imported into this country
at a profit, despite the tariff.
The excise taxes do not provide
q sufficient barrier to foreign
oil and oil imports are gaining,
as a result. As an example of
the exchange situation, the
Canadian exchange is 16 per
cent. An importer can pay a
1919 duty on an article and still
make 6 per cent on the fact
that he gets an American dollar
for his goods. worth s1.16 in
Canada. BY depreciating cur
rency, congress hopes to equalize
money and remove that advant-
lge.
