FRANCE BUILDS
 CONVOY SHIPS

Paris (UP)-Taking advantage of the absence of a limit on small convoy escorts in the London naval treaty, the French navy has placed five more under construction at the Nantes shipyards.
 These vessels, which displace about 600 tons, are new type of destroyer specially designed for conveys and are fast and heavily armed for their size. Substitution of aectric soldering for rivets in certain parts of the ship has ai- lowed extra weight to be devoted to defense equipment.
 Capable of 34 knots, these ships have a cruising speed of IS. Their armament includes two 100-milli- meter guns, four 400-millimeter torpedo launchers and five anti aircraft machine guns.
 Besides the convoy escorts the Nantes shipyards have received the order to construct the Volta, q new type of torpedo chaser, whose sister ship, the Mogador, is under construction at Lorient.

Everything that was promised, and more, that is what Polls has in the most tuneful musical film ever shown-"The Merry Widow which is current at Polls and will be pntil Tuesday night, while at the same time it is showing at the Astor theater New York city at s2 a ticket, and worth every cent of 1t.
 Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette Mcdonald are cast in the leading roles and this is the best picture that they have made since the un- gorgettable Love Parade"
 Wednesday the combination of the first actor of the screen, Gearge M. Conan and Marian Hopkins in "a picture that was produced by the greatest living snowman today, Harold B. Franklin, who for years has felt the pulse of the theater- going public, as general manager of the Fox theaters; then in the same capacity for the RKO theaters, and who is now concentrating on the producing of films that will meet with the approval of the pub lie, have been combined to make the first feature on this mid-week program the, tremendous success that it is.
 The title of the picture is Gam bling" and this was one of the most successful plays that Amer ica's greatest booster, Conan ever wrote and one that he himself starred in. Here you will find this first actor of America in a part that you will like him in-just himself--the way that you want him and he has written a special song for this production.
 The second feature rivals the first. In this we find demure and capable little Claire Trevor, with Gilbert, Roland and Norman Eos ter, Henrietta Cfossman and oth- CTS of this caliber in the latest and best of the Mary Roberts Rinehart stories "Elinor Norton. There is no villain in this picture, it is essentially woman's picture but one that will afford men at the same time, a liberal education into the depths of misery that they can place the trusting heart of a woman.
 Starting Saturday Poli's will again present another of their gala stage and screen shows; on the screen will be Wheeler and Wool sey, in Kentucky Kernals" while the stage will have Miami Nights" with a cast of over 50 entertainers.
