RETAIL MERCHANTS
 PLANNING FORU M
Nationwide Series of COn= ferenCes on Monday,
 January '

More than 1000 retail merchants in 212 key cities from coast to coast are busily preparing for the nationwide forums to be held on January z, for the purpose of pre- senting a united front on the basic principles that should go into any sound state and national unem- ployment legislation, according to the announcement made to day by the national committee, of which Samuel w. Reyburn is chairman.
 Each city has it's own local com . mittee of members, under local chairman. The chairman for the vicinity and city of Hartford is George A. Gay, president, Brown Thompson, Inc. Preliminary dis cussions are now being held for the preparation of a program for Jan uary 7th, that will review the vari- ous proposals that are being made for unemployment insurance.
 The program of January 7th will feature four speakers, each speak ing approximately ten minutes on the various aspects of the problem by open and free dis cussion in order to formulate def mite conclusion before the meet ing adjourns. To that end ballots have been prepared by the nation al committe, which will be distrib- uted at the forum to all retailers interested, and other citizens mak- ing a similar study. These ballots present the four outstanding pro- posals emerging from the variety of measures advocated. A tabula- tion of the vote from these ballots will be the basis for action by the retailers as a whole through com mittees which will call on their state legislators and on Washing tOn

STATE

II Am a Thief" said to be one of the most thrilling and baffling murder mystery dramas screened comes to the Warner State theater Saturday.
 The story by Ralph Block and Doris Malloy depicts the exciting battle between the French Surete and a band of international jewel robbers composed of impoverished nobles, beautiful adventuresses and men so diabolically cunning they are ableto steal millions in gems.
 A trap is set by the secret serv- ice operatives for the thieves with the most famous diamonds of Eu- rope, the Kareninas, which are worth a fabulous sum. Bloodshed and murder follow in the wake of the auctioning off of these dia- monds which robbers are trying to transport from Paris to 1stanbul. Much of the action takes place on the famous Simplon Express, with the suspense b uilding up to one of the most astounding climaxes.
 There is an all star cast headed by Mary Astor and Ricardo Cor tez, while others include such tal- ented players as Dudley Digges, Robert Barrat, Irving Pichel, Ho- bart Cayanaugh, Arthur Ayles- worth, Ferdinand Gottschalk, Frank Reicher, John Wray and Oscar Apfel.
 The companion feature will be Home On The Range" featuring Jackie Coogan now grown into a tall, bronzed and handsome young man. And fully accoutred with Stetson hat, high-heeled boots and six shooters, Jackie Coogan proves as ard-riding and straight-shoot- ing a western star as Randolph Scott, Addison Richards, Fuzzy Knight or any of the other three hundred famous cowpunchers who appear in the film.
 With Evelyn Brent and Ann Sheridan providing the feminine interest, Home on the Range" :s the story of the deadly feud be- tween a gang of crooks and the rancher-brothers, played by Coo gan and Randolph Scott.
 Performances today and tomor- row conclude the engagement Of II Sell Anything and Menace" On Christmas day the State will pre- sent the much anticipated hit "The Little Minister" starring Katharine Hepburn.

 One of the most interesting sets have seen in some weeks is one just completed for Max Reinhardt's "A Midsummer Nights Dream" An entire stage on the Warner lot has been turned into forest. Tn one corner is a grove of pine trees, made of the same material. In an other corner is pool surrounded by birth trees.
 I Deep caves may be seen in a hill- side covered with fir trees. And winding through. the entire set, is a mountain stream of gurgling wa ter.

1POLI'S

A great program that Is what Polls is offering now and which will continue until Friday night, two superb features each worthy of the top position on the program of any other theater but Polls where the best is always to be found.
 The first feature is Music Tn the Air,' with John Boles, singing as you have never heard him be- fore and Gloria Swanson also in fine voice but showing the very latest in gowns and what a flash of wardrobe is displayed, the greatest that has eyed been shown, this has always been one of tho treats of any picture that this little lady has appeared in but in this musical picture taken from the stage play of the same name she rises to the greatest heights of satorial splendor ever.
 The second feature is "The Gay Bride. rip-snorting action pie turc with Carole Lombard, Chester Morris. Zasu Pitts and Nat Pendle- ton in the leading roles, and again another picture that is superb is thrown on the screen for the pat rons of the theater.
 Starting Saturday for three days only Polls will present triple feature program of two fine pic- lures, one especially selected for its timeliness and then as a special added attraction there will be none other than Jimmy Colgan, Water bury's favorite Aorganist in pro- gram of the best of music on the mighty Poli organ.
 The first feature is Laurel and Hardy, the Kings of Laughter, in a full-length comedy, Babes In TOyland". Here is a musical treat especially selected for the Christi mas period and one that will meet with acclaim from the patrons of the theater it embraces the melo- diets of Victor Herbert and is be- ing proclaimed all along the line as something worthwhile and a marvellous production.
 The second feature will be "The Band Plays On" with. Robert Young, Betty Furness, Stuart Err win and Ted Healy in the leading roles. Action, romance, thrills and comedy are all part of this fea- ture.
 Then with Jimmy Colgan, of Morning Pleasantries" and "Or- gan Tones' fame in person here is real entertainment.

Laughing Is Costly

Laughing Is Costly
 In listing the trials and tribula- tions of a film director, we must include those very annoying mo- ments when players ruin scene by laughing at their own lines While doing a doughnut dunking scene for Living on Velvet" Kay Francis and George Brent nearly drove Director Frank Borzage crazy because they couldn't refrain from laughing. Five takes" were necessary before they finally man. aged to keep straight faces. Next day at Universal I saw Di- rector William Wyler tear his hair over the same thing. Through three takes an English waiter in- sisted upon laughing at his own lines. On the fourth, his attempt to suppress a laugh was so obvious that Margaret Sullavan burst out.
 That finished Wyler, s"Lunch," {" he shouted. We'll try it again this afternoon"
 "Gangsters" Wanted!
 Fond parents who are sure they have another Shirley Temple or Jackie Cooper in their family now have a chance to find out if their offspring are of movie caliber. Gus Meins, director of "Our Gang" comedies. is looking for 51year- old girl and boy between 4 and 8 years af age. They are to become permanent members of. the gang. Incidentally, both Shirley and Jackie started as "Gangsters".

By ARTHUR MURRAY

 NEW YORK.-It's just as lN simple and certainly a lot more gracious to learn to tan go than to stumble around trying to fox trot to tango music.
 At rather pretentious holi- day balls where the music is supplied by two orchestras, you may be sure that one of them will play practically nothing except slow, rhythmic tango music.
 At smaller parties, the single orchestra will mix tango tunes with the fox trot and walzt selec- tions. This, after all, is tango year. And unless you know what to do when a Spanish-type song is being played, you might as well sit down.
 Actual tango steps are, of course, similar to those in the waltz and fox trot. Because of this, even a beginner will find tango steps surprisingly simple. They are done in a deliberate manner, making coordination be- | tween the mind and ones feet quite easy to acquire. What is commonly known as | the French version of the tango is extremely popular this year. For that reason, I have dia- grammed step that is done in the half-open position. That is, the feet cross in front of each other, but the shoulders remain paral- Tel and the position of the head should not be changed.
 In the Tango the steps are di- vided into slow and quick move ments. The slow step takes about second and is given two beats of the music. The quick step is twice as fast as a slow step and is given but one beat of the music.
 The steps are taken sidewise. The man has his back to the cen ter of the room as he progresses to his left. The lady faces the center of the room and her steps are taken sidewise, to her right.
 First, take a long slow step with left foot to left side;, then cross right foot in front of left; weight on right foot; step with left foot to left; repeat and draw right foot up to left.
 When taking the second and fourth steps, the man leads with his heel.

NEXT: The Rhumba.

from Jackie Cooper, the sturdy blonde star of the cast, he extracts the finest performance of that young actors career.
 Jackie Searl, in another impor- tant role, gives notable perform ance, as youngster "who takes after his mother" The mother is Dorothy Peterson and she is seen for the first time as a "heavy." She accomplishes the feat with sly, insinuatipg grace.
 A separate paragraph should be devoted to Thomas Meighan, twho has the most important of the "grown-up' roles-that of Jackies father. This actors art natures and mellows with the years.
 o. P. Heggie, as beloved vag- abond," village style, plays with his customary gusto.
 The story has not a single lag ging moment. 1t furnishes an un- broken sequence of pathos, charm and humor.
 The companion feature will be "The Pursuit of Happiness with Francis Lederere, Joan Bennett, Charlie Ruggles and Mary Roland. Performances tonight conclude the engagement of "The Last Gentle man" and Ready For Love"

GARDEN

Revealing an unsuspected flair for comedy the grim, swaggering Jack Holt arrived to-day at the Garden theater in a delightful TO- mantle comedy under the interest ing title "I'll Fix It." In it Holt presents the characterization of a political "fxer"-an unofficial go- between with more actual power than the elected puppets.
 Supporting Rolt and Mona Bar rie in the pivotal roles are Winnie Lightner, vociferous screen comedi- enne, who adds zest to the film with her ludicrous antics; Edward Brophy, HRolt's roly-poly hench- man; Nedda Harrigan as Holt's levelS lSheaded secretary and Charles Levison as the fast-talking news reporter.
