ROPER SEEKS MORE
CASH FOR A|RWAYS.
Secretary to Ask $4,000
On Three Principal U. S.
Routes.

Secretary Of Commerce Roper yes
terday announced he will ask the Bud
get Bureau at once for additional funds
fof air navigation purposes "in the In
terest Of the preservation Of safety Of
life."
The airway aids on the three prin-
cipal transcontinental routes will be
restored to full-time operation at once,
entailing an additional expenditure of
$4,000 for the balance Of this year,
the Secretary said.
Replies to Critics. ~
In q lengthy statement, the Secre-
tary replied indirectly to many critics
who have charged that the aeronautics
policies Of the new administration con-
stitute a menace to the aviators and
viii tend to lower the morale and Grip
ple the efficiency of the Nations civil
aviation.
The statement was made during the
absence from Washington Of Assistant
Secretary Of Commerce Ewing Y. Mitch
ell, in charge Of the Departments
Aeronautics branch, who has been under
IRE In connection with the Governments
aviation policies. Maj. ]. Carroll Cone,
assistant director Of aeronautics Tor air
development, and Eugene L. Vidal. as
sistant director for air regulation. whose
policies also have been questioned by
three are said to have been In Chicago
for the past few days attending the
air races, which closed there Monday.
Roper's action is taken in some quar-
tiers to indicate breach between him
and Mitchell over the latter's policies.
Although the Secretary said he
plans to request only $4,000 addi-
tional from the Budget Bureau as an
immediate authorization to meet the
emergency, he indicated 1t might be
necessary to apply for more later.
lights, which will be restored to full-
time operation, was instituted by the
Republican administration, Secretary
Roper pointed out.
Secretary Roper, in reply to criticism
of the reduction Of the force Of aero
nautical inspectors, said that applica-
tions for new pilot, airplane and me-
chanics licenses have fallen OF as 9 re-
suit of the depression, that accidents
requiring investigation have been zap
preciably reduced" and that production
quiring tests have dropped approximate
" so per cent In three years.
Denies Political Charges.
Roper denied charges that politics
has riddled the medical section Of the
aeronautics branch, stating that "there
has been no change in the policy or
personnel in the medical section ex-
cept through voluntary designations"
'While there have been q large num-
ber Of employees dropped from the pay
rolls of the various divisions in order
to effect economies" Roper said, "the
replacements have been limited to the
appointment Of six men to positions
that directly involve carrying out the
policies Of this administration. Each
of these men has had extensive aero
nautical experience. Such experience
will be the criterion In any future ap-
pointments"
During the fiscal year closed June
80, Secretary Roper pointed out, the
aeronautics branch operated at . cost
Of $7,339, 900. During the current fiscal
year, on the basis Of present estimates,
he said, this service will be operated
on 100000 less than that amount.

SOURCE DISCOVERED

bot Yields Higher V4tamins
Than Cod.

ST PAUL, Mimi, September IA
Norwegian fisherman has discovered In
Minnesota . new source Of fish liver oil
which scientists claim IS higher In Vita
minis than the average cod liver oil.
Hans Selvog Of Warroad, an old
time fisherman, discovered the burbot,
or lawyer fish," accidentally in Lake
Of the Woods There are enormous
numbers" of the burbot in that lake,
he says. The burbot, q destroyer Of
game fish, is probably the only MEM
Der Of the cod family In this State.
Tests Of oil extracted from the burbot
by H A. Halvorson, State Agriculture
Department chemist, revealed the new
source Of fish liver oil.
Halvorson said one test made by the
University Of Wisconsin showed the bur-
bot oil to be eight times as potent
In vitamin D as cod liver oil, while
. Bureau Of Fisheries report says the
burbot oil has from three to four times
as much vitamfn D as a good grade Of
medicinal cod liver Oil and from four
to ten times as much vitamin A.
Vitamin D Is the bone forming. anti
ficket vitamin for which cod liver oil
Is commonly used. A is the anti-in-
fective Ntamin.

What Price Liquor

Phil Lampkin, the Fox maestro,
takes time out from preparing his
Fourth of July overture to forward
the department. choice wines and
liquor list which is part of the
approved service in one of New
York'S finest hotels.
Writes Phil: upon arriving in
my room I found this on the
dressing table along with the
other hotel advices. I got quite
a kick out of it Il hope he means
the liSt), and the thought passed
through my mind they were sort
of rushing this repeal business"
The official hotel bootlegger is
making free offers thus: "a quart
bottle of selected gin or Bacardi
rum with each $3.50 purchase; or
one bottle of any rye or 1873 Ba-
cardi rum with each purchase of
$40 or over.
Now you know why whisky
stocks are soaring on the Wall
Street stock lists.

George ArIiss Is
Signed by u. A.

George ArliSS is to return from
England to Hollywood where he
is to star exclusively for Twen-
tieth Century Pictures, the new
United Artists producing unit, ac-
cording to an announcement by
Joseph M. Schenck and Daryl
Francis Zanuck.
Many of the major film COM
panies were seeking the services
of Mr.. ArliSs, but the United
Artists announcement means that
he will be seen only under the
banner Of that film.
The famous stars contract with
Warner Brothers expired with the
completion of "Voltaire," and he
left Hollywood for England. There
were rumors that he would pro-
duce and star in his own plays
in London.
These reports are definitely set
at rest by the further announce
ment that Mr.. Arliss will begin
work on his first talking picture
for United Artists, September l,
in Hollywood. The title of the
photoplay will be announced later.

With these dramatic words,
Midnight Mary" the new Metro
Goldwyn Mayer Cosmopolitan
Production starting today at the
Fox, opens to show a girl on trial
for her life. She has shot and
killed a notorious gangster and
seems to be absolutely indiffer-
ent to court procedure. While
waiting in a clerks room for the
jury to bring in a verdict, the
girl recalls the incidents of her
life leading to the crime.
AS a young girl, Mary Martin
struggles against bad environment
until she finally succumbs to the
influence of her hardened young
girl friend, Bunny. They become
involved with gang of crooks
headed by Leo, ruthless and cum
ming young master mind.
From there, the story follows
her colorful career, which cli-
makes in a startling courtroom
scene.
Midnight Mary" is an original
story by Anita Loos. Loretta

Correct An Error

"Show Boat" remains with me
the greatest musical comedy ever
produced, and I often wonder why
Hollywood doesn't try again with
the N1na Ferber story. It has all
the elements of magnificent
movie.
I know, of course, that "Show
Boat" was once placed before the
cameras, but that effort stands in
the record as the Hollywood crime
of the century. For, if ever fea-
ture was bungled by the move
master minds, "Show Boat" was
1t. The mistakes started with
casting, with the story treatment
which made the love of Ravenal
and Magnolia a mere side issue,
winding up with the attempt to
graft on the Ziegfeld stars in a
desperate effort to bolster a ter
Tlfic weak sister.
All the splendid characterize.
tion of Edna Ferber was lost by
the Hollywood translators, who
apparently worked on the theory
they were transplanting musical
comedy to the stage. rather than a
