L. Blocks special senate commit
tee, disclosed large private profits
accruing to officials of subsidized
lines. The committee found one
steamship executive who drew
more than 100000 each year for
two years in salaries and expenses.
Between 1920 and 1882 the presi-
dent of another company drew
100000 in salaries, dividends anc
enhanced stock values.
A change in the manner of
awarding subsidies and their basis
may be asked to give the govern
ment greater control over such
conditions.

army upside down.
Despite efforts to keep the facts
quiet, the commission has reached
an accurate understanding of the
iron heel under which the air
corps has been held by the general
staff for years back. 1t also is
wise to the fact that the widely
touted &c. H. O." air force plan,
just announced by Secretary Dern,
in reality is an attempt to tighten
the strangle hold which the gen.
eral staff holds on the winged

AS the Germans propose to build
three more of the Deutschland
type, France proposes to build an
other of the Dunkerque type.
Under the treaty Italy could
build 10000 tons of new capital
ships for replacement. France
could build 10000 tons as it lost
one of its heaviest-the France.
Now Mussolini will proceed to
build all the tonnage Italy is al
lowed-two battleships of $4,000
tons each, the most powerful in
European waters.
They could lick anything the
French have and threaten French
communications with the north
African colonies across the Medi-
terranean.
MOREOVER they constitute
N1 an equal threat to British
water communications with Egypt,
the Suez Canal and India.
Italy already has another pow
erful threat to Britain in the de-
velopment of its great seaplane
force, which could easily swoop
down from Italian ports upon
Malta, England's key-point in
Mediterrean waters.

the naval equilibrium of the Medi-

incidentally, too, he has caused
great rejoicing in Genoa and
Triests, where one each of the new
ships is to be constructed and
where there will now be plenty of
work until 1888 when the vessels
will be launched and completed.

Respondent in its strikingly beautiful settings and costumes, filled to the brim with sly, !n- graduating humor, telling a roman tic tale that cannot fail to de- light every onlooker, and echoing the never-to-be-forgotten melodies of Franz Lehar, "The Merry Wi dow' comes to Warmers Strand theater tomorrow as one of the most glorious film treats ever of- fered by the Metro-Goldwyn-May- CT studios.
 With a cast that could not be improved upon and the superb di- rection of Ernst Lubitsch this pie ture floats along like 8 bubble of merriment to tell it's story of debonair prince and the bewitch- ing widow whom he waltzes away to romance amid the nocturnal delights of gay Vienna and Paris.
 Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette Macdonald have never enjoyed a greater triumph. They sing the Lehar songs as they have never been sung before, backgrounded by a magnificent symphony Or- chestra. Una Merkel and George Barbier help in the humorous scenes and the eye-filling dances and the Albertina Rasch pallets are joy to behold. "The Merry Widow" is the grandest thing to come out of Hollywood in a long, long time.

LYRIC

The feature picture coming to the Lyric theater Sunday is Marie Galante" starring Kettle Gallian Hollywood's latest find.
 Ketti Gallian, who plays the title role in Marie Galante,' the vivid story of a French girl completely overcome by homesickness for her native land, took the part to heart so literally that she went home. Of course she's coming back again but still .g.
 As. soon as she completed her co- starring role with Spencer Tracy in this picture, she boarded a plane for New York to step aboard the He de France for a fast trip to her native France.
 Marie Galante' is the story of French girl, a creature of circum- stance, who finds herself stranded in the Canal Zone, with an all-pow- erful nostalgia for her homeland. The story details the thrilling ex- periences which result when she tries to earn enough money to pay her fare home.

 The story, which was written by George Bertholon and Howard Higgin and adapted by Leonard Fields and Davis Silverstein, deals with the antics of a stage producer who inadvertently becomes aligned with the King of Bulgaria as his efficiency expert.
 The many humorous situations that occur, are brought out 10 their fullest extent by the stellar abilities of Edgar Kennedy and Franklin Pangborn, who head the supporting cast.
 Leonard Fields, a newcomer in directorial ranks, handled the pie ture wSth the ease of veteran and keeps the action at fast tempo throughout.

zASU PITTS IN
 POLL OFFERING
Teamed With w. C. Fields in "Mrs Wiggs of the
 Cabbage Patch"

Americas most beloved piece of literature made into marvellous talking picture, that is what is the current attraction at PoIfs, the at- traction being Mrs Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch," with w. c. Fields as c. Chesterfield Stubbins, the mail order sweetheart, Zasu Pitts as Miss Hazy, the love-sick swain and Pauline Lord, the sensational stage star, who waited for her pic- ture debut for the title role in this picture and it has amounted to personal triumph for this great performer.
 Scenes that are dear to all, DOT trayed with a sincereness that is massive make this picture one that will be appreciated by those of all ages and here is a picture that is for the entire family-there is not the slightest semblance of anything that anyone would find fault with.
 To us New Englanders this story has a sort of local appeal as 1t is our forefathers who are represent ed and their ideals are portrayed, their characters make this superb attraction, and all that we can say is that here they are, all of them and thank goodness they haven't changed the least little bit.
 On the same program as is the custom at Polls the same selected shorts that have become associated with the popular theater will be a part of the program this week. There will be a Charlie Chase com edy, cartoon, ever popular, a scenic, Hearst Metrotonews with the we'll known voice of Edwin c. Hill as commentator and others.
 Starting Wednesday another in the unbroken outstanding double feature programs of this popular theater will be the attraction and this week it will be none other than Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey in Kentucky Kernels and sharing the same prgoram there will be Tom Brown, Anita Louise, Stepin Fetchit and others of this caliber in Bachelor of Art" 8 college pic- ture that rips the glamor and gets to the bottom of things as they are in the seats of learning.

ALHAMBRA

Joe B. Brown is the feature at- traction at the Alhambra theater Sunday.
 This time he appears as "6 Day Bike Rider in the First Na- tional picture of that title. As q bicycle rider Joe is a regular "fiend'', but he wins the race and his girl by the most novel and hi- larious fluke imaginable.
 Joe starts out as a village cute up who goes to the big city to show his girl, who has tilted hims and the rest of the neighbors, what a great guy he Is. After getting into a terrific battle, lands ing in jail and being bailed out, he makes a mad rush for the races which have already started.
 The race is the big climax to one of the most uproarious come. dies in which the wide mouthed comedian has yet appeared. It is not only filled with riotous situa- tions but is cramemd with breath- taking thrills.
 An exceptionally talented cast of players have the important roles in support of Joe. Maxine Doyle has the leading feminine role

SMASH HIT OPENS
 | ON STATE SCREEN
Limitation of Life" Fea- turing Clandette Cole
 bert, Begins To-day

The screen has shown nothing finer than limitation of Life" :" John M. Stahl's Universal smash hit production which begins a5four day engagement at Warmers State theater today with Claudette Colbert in the starring role and contributing one of the finest dra- matic performances of the year now closing.
 Stahl has long been known as a master in the direction of do- mestic drama, and here he has undoubtedly exceeded all his past efforts. This may also be said of the versatile Miss Colbert, who de- livers in this picture a characteri- zation which she has never ap- preached. In moods of gaiety or of tragic drama she is equally effective, and at all times alto- gether charming.
 Warren William is an attractive figure as her lover in the later sequences of the story, and Ned Sparks is his delightful self as the sour-visaged Elmer. Rochelle Hudson and Fredi Washington arc pleasing as the two young girls in the story, the first as the white daughter of-the widowed Miss Col bert, and the later as the mulatto child of Louise Beavers. Miss Bea- vers is excellent in the greatest screen role ever played by a col- lored person. Of the children, Baby Jane is re- vealed as a remarkable child ac- tress of definite starring possibili- ties.
 limitation of Life" perfectly di- rected and played, is the sort of picture that one expects once in season, and deals with domestic problems in a manner which is absorbingly interesting. It is rich- ly and beautifully mounted, and is piece that will live for years to come. Manager Julia M. Smith has arranged splendid surround ing program which includes a Technicolor cartoon, Those Beau- tiful Dames," Spotlight, news, and, as a special added attrac- tion, Jerome and Paul Dean, he- roes of the 1894 World Series in their first picture Dizzy and Daf. fy". It is comedy and packed with more laughs than one can count. Dizzy proves himself a co- median even funnier on the screen than he was on the stage in New York. Here is show that will appeal to the individual tastes of every theatergoer and one that provides the high-caliber of screen entertainment that patrons have come to expect to find at the popu- lar State theater.
