STATE

Don't miss the marvellous show at Warner Brothers State which con- cluded its engagement this evening. Crowded houses at every perform ance, since its opening last Wednes- day, hlve cheered the performances of Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur in "The Plainsman" and Edward Ev- eretG Horton with the "Pixilated Sisters" in Let's Make a Million" !" Here's a show that is show--for further proof just aSk your neigh bor.
 Starting tomorrow the State pre- sents another smashing twin fea- ture program headlined by James Oliver C,Irwood's great story of tie northwest forests, Gods Country and the Woman" It has beer filmed entirely in technicolor (nat- ural color) and stars George Brear and Beverly Roberts.
 The thrillingly dramatic romance of the story is heightened by the fact that the scenes--almost all of which are in the open--were pho tographed wholly in natural colors.
 Brent and Miss Roberts have an excellent supporting cast including such outstanding favorites as Bar ton MacLane, Robert Barrat, Alien Hale, Fl Brendel, Billy Bevan end Joseph King. Hundreds of real lumberjacks appear in the exciting scenes.
 Brent Is first seen as a rich idler, who makes a casual visit to the woods where his brother owns vast tract of timber--and is attempting by crooked methods to injure the business of a rival lumber company managed by girl, Miss Roberts.
 Discovering the trickery of his brother, Brent denounces him and is about to go back to the city when his brother has him shanghaied and returned to the deep woods where the lusty melodrama of love and hate runs its furious course.
 There are fights galore between the steel-muScled lumbermen of the two camps. There are thrilling scenes of a runaway log-train and the blasting of a log jam-there are glamorous love scenes-stirring &C., tion.
 The companion feature will pre- sent the ever-popular James Dunn with Jean Rogers in Mysterious Crossing" Lightning paced drama riotous comedy and tender roWance in which Jimmy gives the swellest performance of his long and distin- guished career as one of Hollywood's top-notch celebrities. You'll hke this new show at the State tomor' row-it's got everything that makes for perfect screen entertainment. Wednesday brings Merle Oberon and Brian Aherne in Beloved En- emy", also Charlie Ruggles and Alice Brady in Mind Your own Busl- ness."

ENGLISH PREMIER
WRITES TOLL DUCE
Chamberlain Note Thought
Move to Better Anglo
Italian Relations.
By the Associated Press.

~ 4
LONDON, July 3l.-A personal let
ter from Prime Minister Neville Cham
berlain to Premier Benito Mussolini
reached Rome today and persons close
TO the government considered 1t a
significant effort to improve Anglo
Italian relations.
They said it indicated the prime
minister had taken over direction of
the empires troubled relations with
Italy from Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden. whose contacts with II
Duce and Italian leaders have not
been cordial since the crisis over
Ethiopia two years ago.
The Italians considered Eden
largely responsible for the League S
invocation OF sanctions in the effort
to halt the conquest Of Ethiopia.
The letter arrived at the italian for
eign Office today and was forwarded
At once to Rimini. where II Duce was
Vacationing. Although British gov
ernment sources declined to state
hatly that the letter was sent, it ad-
mltted at 10 Downing street-Cham-
DerlinS ofhce-that it was quite
likely"
The foreign Office, which disclosed
That Eden WAS away Oh three weeks
holiday on the English south coast
would not comment on the letter.
Anslo-ltallan relations also have
been strained over the work OF the
Committee for Non Intervention in
the Spanish war. headed by the Earl
OF Plymouth, undersecretary OF for
elgn affairs and Eden's right-hand
man. 1t was believed that Chamber
IAN was trying to erase that bad
feeling.
