BLACKALL URGES
 : HOUSE DECREASE
Hartford Senator's Proc pOsal Favored by Repre-
 sentative John ThOniS

Reduction in the membership oi the house of representatives in Hartford, as proposed yesterday by State Senator John c. Blackall oi Hartford in an address in the Ca- pital City, meets the approval Rep resentative John D. Thoms of Wa terbury, democratic minority leader of the house in the 1885 session oi the legislature. Other local legis- lators are also said to favor Sen ator Blackall's plan which also in- cludes a substantial increase in sa- lary for members of the general as- sembly.
 Senator Blackall, who is a native of Waterbury and who is now state insurance commissioner, made his recommendation at a meeting oi the Men Teachers club of the Hart- ford public high schools. Tt is a fine experience for a man of means to be in the legislature" he said but the ordinary working man, the ordinary small business man or the professional man whose income is derived from his own attention tc his patients or clients without ques- ton suffers financially by attend ance in the general assembly"
 As for the cutting of the number of representatives in the house Senator Blackall pointed out that the present sc-called borough sys- tenn of government in the small To- calities has produced a top-heavy representation of one political par ty in the house which our grand children may some day see changed"

Four little words, Another Great State Show, adequately describe the current offering at Warner Brothers State theater. Included in Showed Under" with George Brent, Genevieve Tobin, Glenda Farrell. Patricia Ellis and Frank McHugh; also "The Prcview M,ir- der Case" with Reginald Denny, Frances Drake, Gail Patrick, Rod LaRoque, Conway Tearlc and other favorites.
 Saturday brings Warner Brothers first big musical in a year and what show 1t isl Colleen" with Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, Jack Oakie, Joan Blondell, Hugh Herbert, Lou ise Fazenda and the dancing scn- sation of the year, Paul Draper.
 Of the latter Dick Powell says, "Never in all the years of my ag- sociation with dance bands, night club revues and the screen have ever had the pleasure of working with a dancer who performed the intricate routines and amazing in- novations that Paul Draper brings to the screen in Colleen. He's a sensation and will win the plaudits of theatergoers the moment he fin- iShes his first number"
 Robert Lord has provided a real plot for this musical comedy, which is said to be packed with delightful and hilarious fun as well as romance and some dramatic moments.
 As a spectacle, the picture pre- sents two unique and unusual spec- ialty numbers staged by Bobby Connolly, famous dance director, in which scores of beautiful girls par ticipate. One is staged aboard an ocean liner, with everyone from the captain to the crew as well as the passengers doing @ dance rhythm. The other takes place in modiste shop in which a veritablc style show is featured.
 Three original catchy songs were written for the production by the famous composers, Harry Warren and Al Dublin. Powell sings two of these, one with Keeler, while the ether. a comedy number, is sung by Miss Blondell and Oakie.
 Here again is entertainment to back Up the theater's oft-repeated logan, You are always sure to en- Joy a grand show at the State."
 For added entertainment the management will present "Thc Case Of The Missing Man" with Roger Pryor, Joan Jerry, Thurstor Hall, Arthur Hohl and Tommy Du- gan. Plenty of dramatic punches, clever dialogue, several amusing comedy characters plus an fngen- ious plot, make "The Case Of The Missing Man" diverting, hilarious and suspense-laden picture.

Einstein's Birthday
 Launches New Drive
Fund for Palestine Starts in Professors Name Many to Inscrbe Name in Testimonial Volume for Dollar

The fifty-seventh birthday of Prof. Albert Einstein, which oc- cured Saturday, March 14th, mark ed the launching, with his permis- sion, of the Einstein Fund for Pal estine, the proceeds of which will be turned over to the United Pales- tine Appeal for the settlement fin Palestine of maximum number of the Jews of Germany and other lands. The national quota of the United Palestine Appeal is $3,500,- GOO.
 The fund is designated to give great masses of Jews an opportuni- ty to display the affection and csc teem in which they hold the dis tinguished scientist. No one will be permitted to give more than one dollar to the Fund. The contribu- ton will be made at the time the individual inscribes his name in ar Einstein Testimonial Volume. This ,, book, which is expected to carry many thousands of signatures, will be presented to Prof. Einstein at a public function later this year.
 Tn a letter made public yesterday addressed to Dr. G. A. Lowenstein who is chairman of the Einstein Fund, and vice-chairman of the New York campaign of the United Pales- tine Appeal, Prof. Einstein approved the purposes of the fund and said
 Tt is a source of deepest joy that my name will be linked with the great fund-raising effort of the United Palestine Appeal. It is clear to everyone today what incalcuable relief the upbuilding work in Pales- tine has brought to the Jewish

POLES

The current program at Polls Wife vs Secretary" with Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and Jean Har- low will come to the end of its local showings tomorrow night, and all who haven't availed themselves of the opportunity of seeing this at- traction should do so before this time.
 Starting Saturday for four days, again sweeping to new heights in entertainment, Polls brings to it's patrons, Follow the Fleet" with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and an all-star supporting cast.
 "The Navy's on shore leave means fnerrymaking and romance in any harbor city, but 1t heralds the gay est days of the year in old San Francisco. And the unrestrained excitement brought by the tidal wave of blue to the Bay City has now bee ntranslated into song, dance, comedy and tangled love by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers with the help of Irving Berlin in Fol low the Fleet.
 The singing starts even before the dreadnaughts hit the Golden Gate, with Astairc serving Up Irving Berlin's We Saw the Sea" oboard battleship steaming toward ad- venture and love ashore.
 Romance and comedy swing into the theme when Astaire meets Gin ger Rogers in a dime dance sailors rendezvous and when Har- riet Hilliard, in the role of Ginger's represscd school-teacher sister, loses her heart to Randolph Scott, a dozen girls every port" pal Of Astaire's.
 The meetings give rise to two entertainment high spots and lead inevitably to fresh plot situations that are spiced by seven tunes by Berlin, who has done the entire musical score. Astaire and Rogers do their first of three team dances to the strains of Let Yourself Go" Miss Hilliard, 8 beautiful newcomer, learns 8 lesson on feminine wiles from Ginger, and goes after Scott in a romantic campaign that makes full use of the beauty and lovely voice which made her star of New York dance bands and national radio programs. Her screen debut song is "Get Thee Behind Me, Sa- tan." Her second, Here Am I, But Where Are You?"
 Monday night on the stage of Polls there will be presented a Fashion Revue, with dozen New York models brought here for this one show, in addition to the models there will be Jack Fitzgerald and His Music and as an added treat vaudeville of the highest order. Gowns from the style centers of

people in time of need. But 1t has greater value than the aid which it is able to provide for the immediate situation. Its far-reach- ing significance lies in the unifying power which radiates from 1t upon the entire Jewish people"
 The Einstein Fund was created by the Council of Jewish Organizations of New York, of which Charles Ress is president. The council represents hundreds of fraternial, social and religious bodies in New York.
 A statement issued by MT. Ress and Dr. Lsowenstein on the nature of the Einstein fund said:
 "In view of the great personal de- votion of Prof Einstein to the cause of the upbuilding of Palestine and to the problems of Jewish survival, the Council of Jewish Organizations undertook to create the Einstein Fund as token of the deep admir- ation and love of the Jewish masses for the man who has been charac- terized as the greatest Jew of our times.
 Through the medium of this fund the many Jews who are not reached through the ordinary chan nels of Palestine Undertaking will be enrolled in the drive for Pales- tine and at the same time have an opportunity to join in paying trib- ute to Prof. Einstein.
 Any member of fratcrnal or communal organization will become eligible to enter his signature in the Einstein Testimonial Volume by contributing the sum of ono dollar to the Albert Einstein Fund for Palestine.
 "The Albert Einstein Fund will be the contribution of the Council of Jewish Organizations to the United Palestine Appeal, the na- tionwidc campaign seeking $3,500 ,000 for the settlement in Palestine of a maximum number of Jews from Germany, Poland and other coun- tries"

 It had been announced-though not by Chaplin or Miss Goddard that on the wey here by steamship Chaplin tried to make arrangements to marry in Singapore by special H. censc which would waive the usual formalitics. Officials interested themselves in Chaplin's divorces from his two previous wives.
 Chaplin has made no effort since he arrived to obtain license, 50 far as is known, and 1t was sug- gested that he and Miss Goddard married on the way.

TWO MASS. TOWNS
 ARE USING BOATS

Adams Mass, March l0--(UP)-- Flood waters of the Hoosac river rcceded more than a foot early to- day, but new fears were felt as rain began to fall again after a lapse of several hours. Boats were still being used in lowlands in both Adams and North Adams. More than 600 in the two communities left homeless by rising waters were cared for in state armories. Dam- age was estimated at $l00,000. Ma tional guardsmen stood watch over the Myrtle-Street bridge in the cen- ter of Adams, which was threatened by the south branch of the Hoosac river.
 Though traffic was possible in the towns today, highways to other points were impossible. At the peak of the flood yesterday, water one to 1-2 feet deep poured through windows of mills along the river. A foot of water covered downtown Adams streets and seed- cd beneath the doors of stores. Re- ceding waters today left silt and mud in their wake.

MERRIMACK IS
 VERY NEAR PEAK

Haverhill, Mass, March 19 -(UP) -- The Merrimack river, rising at the rate of six inches an hour, today threatened to exceed the record peak of 22 feet set in 1887. Shortly after noon the water was at the 20- foot, 1-inch mark.
 Easements of downtown stores were flooded. Inundated basements closed the Haverihill Box Board Company and the Pentucket mill.
 Residents of the Bradley Brook and River r-street sections were evac- uating their homes, though flood waters had not yet reached the buildings.
