Film
ForCopitoI

A new type of menace" role
falls to the lot Of the suave
screen william" Basil Rathbone
in the unusual drama Love From
A Stranger" starring Ann Harding
and slated to open at Loew's
Capitol Theater on Friday.
In this new production Rath-
bone creates a type of madman
usually associated with Laughton
or Lorre-a mental derelict whose
chief preoccupation is the execu-
ton of some perfect crime.
In this particular story justifi-
cation for the character is found
in the fact that he has been badly
shell-shocked during the war and
suffers from the delusion that all
women are his enemies.
Love From A Stranger" pos
sesseS, apart from this intriguing
new characterization, a fascinat-
ing drama of a most unusual love
that comes to a startling denou-
ment in an equally startling cli-
max.
In addition to this film the Cap
itol will present, starting Friday,
Glen Gray and his Casa Iona
orchestra and other acts on the
stage.

Tunes
For Palace

"Waikiki Wedding" a rousing
comedy of love and music in the
South Seas, brings Bing Crosby,
Bob Burns, Martha Raye and Shir-
ley Ross to the Loew's Palace
screen on Friday in another fit
of buffoonery, the kind that made
Rhythm on the Range" one of
the outstanding comedies Of last
year.
This time Bing is a press agent
for a pineapple cannery in Ha-
waii. To keep Waikiki sold as the
glamour spot Of the world it be-
comes necessary for Bing to make
love to a comedy miss who has
won a contest and with it trip
to that romantic island, but who
threatens to walk out on a well
laid publicity scheme. But in max.
ing love merely to protect his
plan, Bing finds himself actually
falling in love.
While Bing and Shirley Ross
are mixed up in some pleasing
romantics, hilarious Bob Burns
finds himself being chased all
over the islands by cavernouS
mouthed Martha Raye.
The film is generously satu-
rated with romance and offers a
score of tunes which are sung by
Bing, Shirley Ross and Martha
Raye, as well as a native chorus.
News events, a comedy and
short subjects will supplement the
musical comedy that will succeed
'Maytime."

Claim Considered
Against Estate
OF Andy Mellon

WASHINGTON, Aug. 81. U.P)-A
bureau of internal revenue official
told the United Press today that
the bureau was considering press
ing new tax claim against the
estate of Andrew w. Mellon.
He said the treasury had data
showing that Mellon transferred
properties worth at least $68, 1876, ,584
to his two children, Paul and Ailsa,
in 1929 and 1881.
The official explained that this
figure was based upon book values
of securities owned by the late fin
ancier. The actual value, as deter
mined by the government might be
many times this figure, he said
Under current estate tax regu-
lations, at least $5O,OOO,OOO would
be asked in federal claims if the
suit is pressed.
