DOUBLE FEATURE
 OPENS AT STATE
"She Married Her Boss" and ''StOrm Over the Andes" Start Today

Columbia Pictures produced "It Happened One Night" and it turned into the biggest hit of tn 1884 season. It also brought fame to Claudette Colbert and won her the 1894 Academy of Motion Pic ture Arts and Sciences award and raised her to the highest pinnacle of public acclaim. Now Columbia has turned the trick again with "She Married Her Boss" and again Claudette Col bert triumphs in the starring role. It begins four day engagement at the State theater today.
 This new picture has the same buoyancy and freshness that made its predecessor five-way prize winner ana ties the whole thing up into bundle of the choicest mer- riment that has come to town in many moons.
 Miss Colbert herself is delight full; her inherent charm and viva city have never been shown to better advantage. As very eff cient secretary who carelessly falls in love with her boss, she sees to it that he takes time off one day to buy her a wedding ring. That proves a costly mistake, for the marriage turns out to be one of the maddest things one can im- agine.
 The fun continues fast and furi-
 
 storm center. Melvyn Douglas also does a fine job as the frantic boss, and Michael Hartlett, last seen in Grace Moore's Love Me Forever" is thoroughly engaging as a devil-may-care chap who tries to manage the secretary's affairs for her.
 Edith Fellows as the boss pre- cocious nine-year-old daughter; Katherine Alexander as his nerve- wracked sister; Raymond Walburn as a butler; Jean Dixon as Miss Colbert's crony; and Clara Kimball Young in a small role are all splendid.
 "She Married Her Boss" will make you laugh. It's the tops in entertainment and the second big hit of the States new fall and winter show season.
 The companion feature will be "Storm Over the Andes" starring the ever popular Jack Holt with a big supporting cast. It presents the star in one of the finest tailored -order roles he has ever appeared in.
 Next Wednesday brings another penant-winning double feature bill to include Red Salute" with Robert Young and Barbara Stan- wyck, also King Solomon of Broadway. with Edmund Lowe.
 Registration Night" will be held on Wednesday evening next week, the same as in the past.

Relatives Not Immune
 Autograph fiends even know the wives and husbands of the screen stars.
 Mildred Lloyd, who hasn't ap- peared on the screen since she was Harold Lloyd's leading woman 12 years ago, visited her husband at the studio where he is making "The Milky Way. On her way out she was beset by autograph collec- tors.
 You've made a mistake" she said. "I'm not important.
 You're Mrs. Harold Lloyd" de- clared one of the collectors, land we'd like to have, your signature. Of course, she gave it.
 A member of Hollywood's vast army of autograph collectors, 12- year-old Evelyn Roberts explained how she knew all the celebrities.
 "I read all the newspapers and magazines and see most of the pie lures, so know who everybody is in Hollywood, whether they are stars or not"
 Evelyn has nearly 300 Al auto graphs in her collection, but she will sell any one of them for 25c. Swell, Q New Word!
 Don't be surprised if a tiny son or daughter of a Hollywood screen star is quoted next week as saying "my new little red wagon is mar velous."
 Marvellous" has become pass word in movietown. By actual count it was uttered exactly 398,- TOP times on studio lots in the last 72 hours.
 Such words as gigantic and tre- mendous, long associated with film folk, have been discarded. Mar velous" is THE word, in conversa- tion at least, and it can be used about anything. A new actress can be marvellous" and so caa piece of pie.

 Hollywood - Filmland's auto graph collectors know their celeb- rites better than do any other class of hero worshipers. .
 They can recognize stars at a great distance by their walk, and swoop down on them at sight, ask ing autographs. They know the players automobiles, their license numbers, and their clothes.
 They recognize discoveries" be- fore they have even made pie ture. and they can tell extra peo- pie from "bit' players.
 Many of these collectors secure signatures from players every time they see them. Hollywood auto graphs often are sold and are even traded, like stamps.
 Such trader was the autograph hunter who asked Mae Robson to sign his book twice. She asked the reason for this unusual request.
 Well" the lad replied, q trade autographs and I can get a Fred ric March for two Mae Robsons. {"

Of the 64 envelopes that I kept, three were airmail, II were regis tered and 10 were unusual cancellation. Twenty-one were. commemorative issues and the remainder were ordinary regu- lar issues. Many of the stamps were much more att tractive on the original en- velope. They have the added advantage of never getting hinge worn, thinneds or creased.

this morning.
Twice the jurors have reported

Entering pleas of not guilty, John
Shell, 81, and Joe jackson, 26.
both colored, went on trial today
for the Staying in April Of Mr..
and Mrs. John Thomas Coleman,
aged Spotsylvania county couple,
whose battered bodies were found
in a we'll on their farm near here.
Heavily armed guards, fearful
of a 1ynching attempt, brought the
prisoners here this morning after
a quick trip from Richmond where
they had been held. A group of
stern-visaged farmers lined the
front of the courthouse, but no
disturbances were reported.
Commemorative Attorney E. r.
Garner said he anticipated little
difficulty in the selection Of a
jury and predicted the case would
end before nightfall.
The State will attempt to intro
duce confessions which officials
said were signed by the alleged
murderers. Each man, according
to police, accuses the other of the
crime, although each admits hav-
ing gone to the Coleman farm
four miles south of here with the
avowed intention of robbing the
aged pair.
Counsel for the men, Harry H.
Sager, of Fredericksburg, ap-
pointed by the court, did not indi-
cate whether he would contest
the alleged confessions. Fourteen
State witnesses have been sum-
moned.

London Ready to Talk About
Sterilization, But Waits
On America to Lead

LONDON, May IA Q.NS0.
Great Britain is ready to talk
sterilization, but hardly ready to
act, it became known today in the
wake of announcement by Secre-
tary 6f the Treasury Morgenthau
that the United States now would
undertake the move if other ma
lions desire it.
If Secretary Morgenthau was
passing the buck" to Britain by
declaring the United States would
not initiate currency sterilization
moves, Britain is passing it back
by holding the next move is up to
the United States herself.
Officials Silent
Although official circles re-
NAMED silent, it was stated au-
thoritatively that the unexpected
American move failed to alter the
situation as far as Britain is con-
cerned. London still holds the
next move is UP to Washington.
Britain is convinced world cur
rencies cannot be stabilized until
a system is evolved which will
stand the test of time. There was
a strong undercurrent of opinion
that Mr.. Morgenthau was aware
of the British position that Lon
don is ready to discuss stabiliza-
ton at any time, although not
ready to initiate any further
moves,

COUNTER BLAST
IN TAX QUIZ
Old Steel Competitor Testifies
Before U. S. Board on Value
Of the Disputed Shares
International News Service

Andrew w. Melons high priced
battery of lawyers today launched
a counter attack at the Govern
ment's efforts to collect $3,089, 900
in back taxes from the former
Secretary of the Treasury.
Expert testimony was offered
before the Board Of Tax Appeals
designed to prove that, far from
owing Uncle Sam 100000, Mr..
Mellon actually was entitled to a
$4,000 refund on his 1881 tax
returns. The 1913 valuation of
the McClintic-M Marshall Construc:
ton Company was the issue in.
volved and j. v. w. Reynolds,
New York consulting engineer,
was today's star witness.
Stock Value Disputed
Mr.. Mellon paid taxes on the
sale of this concern on the basis
of a $3.50 per share valuation, but
his accountants have since decided
the stock actually was worth $500.
The Government contends the
valuation could not have been
higher than $15S. AS the stock is
not listed, the intangible value
ultimately must be fixed by the
Board of Tax Appeals.
From 1900 to 1913 Mr.. Reynolds
was an executive Of the Pennsyl-
vania Steel Company. I'm d er
questioning by Mr.. Melons at
torney he listed a long number of
contracts the McClintic- Marshall
Company had taken from his old
firm. He said:
They were our most annoy
ing competitors
