POLI'S

The last two days of Helen Hayes in "What Every Woman Knows and "Wagon Wheels" the Zane Grey story, are today and to- morrow at Polls, and this is one of the greatest double feature pro- grams that have been shown in this town in a long time.
 Miss Hayes is superb in this pie ture and she should be as this 1 the vehicle that she played for over 50 weks on the leading stages of the country. A. strong supporting cast assists the star and included amongst the many are Madge Ev- ans and Brian Ahearne.
 For 4 days starting Saturday at the regular small prices Of Polls while at the same time it is show ing at the Astor theater in New York City for $2 a seat, Polls will present the greatest musical film of all time "The Merry Widow" with Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette Mcdonald in the leading roles and Edward Everett Horton and Una Merkel in supporting roles.
 For years the melodious strains of Franz Lel1ar's music has been a favorite of all ages and in this picture, elaDOFdtiNS On tuc old6S show in every detail, and with the composer directing the orchestra of over 200 pieces. the best music ever heard by human ear is guar anteed.
 For years this great musical comedy toured the country and the cheapest price that anyone ever heard the score played for in a theater was $500 a ticket. The en- gagement at Polls while it is still running in New York is only pos sible through the connection that Poli's has with the Loew Circuit of theatres, the largest in the world and that is why you will always find the greatest of pictures pre- sented at this popular thaater.
 Tn addition to the feature there will also be the usual carefully se- lected program of short subjects picked to agree with the caliher of the feature and the best that are to be found in the film market.
 Miss s'The Merry Widow" and you miss the greatest musical treat that you have ever been afforded the chance of seeing.

Negotiations may begin here to-

Charles G. Abbot and Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh for the removal Of
the first Wright brothers airplane
from the British Museum to the
Smithsonian Institution, 1t is gen.
orally believed in aeronautical cir

The three principles in the sit
uation met yesterday as fellow
members Of the National Advisory
Committee for Aeronautics, which
held a meeting in the Navy De-
partment, but the subject Of the
first successful heavier-than air
machine was not discussed.
Recently DR.. Abbot, secretary Of
the Smithsonian institute o n,
opened the way for return of the
plane by suggesting to Orville
Wright that committee, headed
by Colonel Lindbergh, look into
the matter.
Wright assented to this pro-
posal, but the matter has not yet
been carried further. The plane,
first flown at Kitty Hawk, N. c.,
in December of 1908, was loaned
to the British Museum by the
Wright brothers after they had
taken affront at an action Of the
Smithsonian officials in labelling
another plane as "the first ma
chine capable of flight carrying a

ATHENS, Jan. "a UN.S)-
Ruling that the Greek govern

friendly relations with the United
States, and stating that these re-
lationS must be maintained, the
State Council today upheld the
government and rejected the Chi

The councils decision was an
nounced after nearly a weeks de-
liberation on insults appeal from
the governments refusal to renew
his residence permit beyond jan
uary 81. Unless further brief
stay Is granted on grounds Of i'll
health, the indicted former util-
tiles magnate must leave Greece
by that date.
Text Of Decision
whereas the minister of the
interior has the right to grant or
refuse a provisional residence
permit, this constitutes by itself
an administrative act and as
such is subject to appeal before
the State Council.
"Whereas in this particular
case, rs officially stated in a
letter Of January 3 from the
minister Of the interior to
the State Council, the minister,
by refusing permissi to the
applicant, who is an American
citizen, did so in the interest
Of the State, with q desire to
maintain friendly relations with
the United States;
''The existence of such pO-
htical reasons is supported by
other evidence contained in the
files and subStantiated during
the hearing. Moreover, the
control Of these reasons comes
under the Governments re-
spOnSible policy, and, therefore,
escapes the State councils
competency.
PLEA REJECTED
'Whereas, under the above
circumstances the minister's act
constitutes q Governmental act,
we, therefore, reject insults ap-
peal and impose upon him costs
Of 1900 drachmR (abOut
$13.65)."
