Finds Short Air Route
 From Ketchikan To Hyder

Bob Ellis, Southern Alaska Airways pilct, discovered on his last trip here an new and much shorter air route be- tween Hyder and Ketchikan, according to press repor,:,
 The new route was disc1v- cred while Ellis was returning to Ketchikan on a charter flight with c. V. Brennan and Paul Everest of .he Brittania Mining and Smelling Go as passengers. The route cx- tends from a point on POT Hand Canal a few miles below Fly der to Rudyard Bay on Behm Canal, over a pass thas re quires no greater flying alti- tude than 4,000 feet at any point. From Rudyard Bay the route extends in an almost straight line to Ketchikan.
 Utilization of the new route permits a plane to take virtu- ally a straight course between Hyder and Ketchikan and saves a far more lengthy trip around Cape Fox and along the entire length of Portland Canal.

OIL EXECUTIVES
WARRANTS ISSUED
Five West Coast Firms and
Al individuals Indicted
for Code Violations.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, March 24.-Oficers
and directors of five Pacific Coast
oil companies. including Standard of
California and Associated. will be
arraigned soon on indictments charg-
ing violation of the national oil code
OF fair competition, Federal authori-
ties said today.
In indictments returned by the Fed
eral grand jury here last night. the
two major companies were accused
of marketing their gasoline through
supposedly independent" concerns
under different trade names in such
way as to promote vicious price
cutting" and endanger the life of
small and independent companies
OF the other three companies in
dicted, it was charged the Signal Oil
g. Gas Co., a Delaware corporation,
and the Signal Oil g. Gas Co. Of
California, are controlled by Stand
ard, and the Seaside Oil Co. by
Associated.
Warrants Issued.
District Attorney Peirson Hall to-
day instructed attorneys for various
individual defendants, Of whom there
are Al. to surrender them at their
earliest convenience" and arrange
$1,000 bonds.
Bench warrants for the defendants
we're issued but the Federal marshal
was instructed to hold up the war
rants over the week end
The indictments we're returned after
q long inquiry, during which District
Attorney Hall was in Washington for
a month comforting with Secretary
Ickes and other Federal officials.
It was charged that Standard and
Associated marketed first and second
grade gasoline through the minor con-
Germs under different names, but at the
same prices as the majors charged.
Prices for third grade gasoline sold
through the minors were reduced,
however, in such a way as to make
the minors appear as underselling
competitors of the majors, it was
charged.
Violations Denied.
In statement, Oscar Lawler,
counsel for Standard, said that COM
pany has "at all times observed the
letter of the Law in respect to fair
competition and the N. R. A. laws"
David r. FAIRIES, member Of the
board of the Signal Co. and one of its
counsel said STANDARD oil never at
any time owned a share of stock in
Signal Oil True. we have
had agreements for sale and purchase
of products, but our productions were
independent of one another.
Prices charged by independents have
been so low We feel a Government
investigation in that connection would
bear real fruit"
Under the code schedule Of fines,
indicted companies and their officers
and directors, if convicted, would face
a penalty for each day of violation.
In the case of the Standard defend
ants this would be maximum total
of 81 100000 and in the case of As
sociated, S2200,0Q0.

ADVENTURESO OF
NURSE FORM Il
FILM THRILLER
Bebe Daniels Is Star of
Exciting NeiU Picture
at the Earle.

Registered Nurse" might well have
been dismissed with a short "poof' If
its creators had not collected two
sincere and workmanlike players to
carry the burden Of its unraveling.
The film at Warner Bros. Earle this
week is a guileless imitation of the
successful Men IN White" set up
with approximately the same group
Of characters. The principal differ
ence is the people in the better film
were living; in this tale they ere, with
the exception of two individuals, ex-
ceedingly wooden.
Nevertheless, Registered Nurse" is
a passing fair program picture, and it
has with 1t a program worth the
candle If there was no flicker on the
list this week at all. Grace Hayes,
with her singing and her inimitable
radio farce, tops the bill: and no mat
ter If you may have seen her here
before, go again.
For the dance part Of the inevitable
song and dance vaudeville, Adler and
Bradford and two colleagues present
some clever and novel stuff, while
Olvido Perez's wire-walking act will
trained seal convince you it is still
possible to contrive a new animal act
A Joe Penner short. news reel and
an orchestra overture complete the
bill.
Now to return to the feature after
a tour of the Hebrides, which are
pleasant isles as the Earle arranges
them. Registered Nurse" has as its
motivating figure young lass whose
husband, drunk and in nasty mood,
smashes up his car while returning
from a country club. The accident
affects his mind. He is put away in
the laughing academy. and she re-
turns to her former profession as
trained nurse.
In the hospital where the major
portion of the action transpires, she
labors beside the famous surgeon
(named Hedwig and not Hochberg in
this version, and competently played,
too, by John Halliday, is courted by
toughies and liked, by her fellow
workers Well, it seems the crazy
husband might recover through a sue
cesSful operation, and as little as she
wants him back his wife (were you
told this is Miss Bebe Daniels) agrees
to have it tried. Shortly before he is
to go on the table, the spouse ac-
commodatingly jumps out window
and kills himself. Miss Daniels
marries the great surgeon, not the
promising one. And there you are
