STATE MYSTERY
FILM FILLED WITH
: THRILLING ACTION

Gangsters smuggling an iron
lung into the country-newspaper
reporters, avid for a story, hiding
themselves into the great iron
tube, and travelling with it into a
gangster's -lair-murdcr on the
high seas-contraband liquod-a
pretty girl, and, of course, ro-
mantle young man; these are, the
ingredients of "The Night Hawk" "
another first rate thriller straight
from the Republic lot, from
whence come SO many splendid ac-
ton films.
Even a gangster can have a soft
spot in his. heart, according to this
new picture, which opens Monday
at the State Theatre for a run of
two days. In this case, the tender
spot is the crooks kid brother,
who is dying in a hospital. Only
an mon lung can save his life. So
the iron lung is brought into the
country at great risk and peril,
and is promptly kidnapped" by a
rival gang and held for ransom.
A young newspaper reporter in
iects himself into this tense situa-
ton, and his adventures and mis-
adventures provide the gist of one
of the most exciting gangland
melodramas in recent months.
Robert Livingston portrays the
reporter, quick to fight, quick to
make love, and quick to risk life
and limb for the sake of a story.
June Travis, who gets lovelier
with each succeeding picture,
scores as his sweetheart, the news
paper publishers daughter.
Robert Armstrong capably fills
the role of Mccormick, the gang
ster, and the supporting players
include Ben Welden, Robert Ho-
mans, Roland l.. Got, Joseph
Downing, Paul Fix, Bruce Mac
Farland and others.

unleashing a conflict with the Ger
man people"
.The German nation desires to
live in peace with the American
nation and refuses to believe that
the majority of the American ma
ton approves of the present hys-
terical and provocative policy OF
disaster practiced in Washington"
the newspaper asserted. ....
The announcement regarding
relations between the two nations
was made by the official d. n. b.
News Agency 1t placed the blame
for strained relations upon Wash
ington's blunt reflections of Ger
man protest against speech made
in Cleveland Dec. 18 by U. S. Sec
retary Of Interior Harold l.; lckes:
The announcement was the nrst
time that the German people had
been informed of the acute state
of affairs existing between Ger
many and the United States. Un-
til last night the average German
was unaware that Hitler had made
a formal protest or that 1t had
been curtly rejected. -,
The D. n. BIS statement SAID
that, so long as the present Amer
lean attitude persists, "the hope
expressed by the American foreign
office that German-American rela-
tions may improve has no founda-
ton" .,
The ambassadors of both coun-
tries-German Ambassador Hans
Heinrich Dieckhoff and U. S. Am
bassador Hugh R. Wilson-already
have been recalled for "consulta-
ton" and yesterdays statement
indicated possibility that Dieckhoff
NAV not return to WashingtonN at
all. =,
Hitler conferred with Dieckhoff
on Christmas Eve regarding the
state of German-American affairs
and the D. N. r. announcement
probably was the direct result OF
that conference.
Only Thursday the United States
government made a new represen-
tation to the German foreign OF
fee. asking assurances that Amer
lean Jews would be exempt from
tba provisions of new Nazi anti
Semitic decree prohibiting any
Jew from managing any business
after January |. The representa-
tion was one of a series of Ameri-
can notes, none of which has
brought a direct answer as yet.

GOTHAM SET FOR
BIG 1899 EVENT

Street the cost Of revelry ranged
from a 50 minimum to Sl5 tops.
A turnout of from half to
three quarters of million was
expected in the regular night
spots, while twice that many were
expected to crowd saloons, restau-
rants and rum rookcries from
Manhattan to Coney Island.
The theme song for the evening
was the last composition of the
late George Gershwin-"Dawn of
a New Day"-which has been Sc
lected a. the Worlds Fair theme
song for 1889.
0rchestras of every color and
size-from Cab Galloway at the
Cotton Club to Kay Kyser at the
Pennsylvania's Manhattan Room
were geared to whang out the
New Years song precisely at II
o'clock.
On Times Square the Girl of
Tomorrow" will be unveiled-if it
isn't too cold-in a transparent
perisphere, patterned after the big
bah at the Worlds Fair.
Most of the night spots have
made preparations for their Big
gest crowds since the depression
which, in most cases, is the biggest
in their history, since practically
all of the current crop grew ap
in post-prohibition days.
One of the surest pointers to a
record for New Years Eve dizzi-
ness lis the sudden box-office boom
at the Broadway showhouscs. The
traditional mid-holiday matinee
Wednesday afternoon-which al
ways sits a record for attendance,
drew the biggest crowds since pre-
depression days. .......
Most Of the night clubs were
priced at $3.50 as the rock bot
tom, with the sky, as usual, as the
TOP. This went for Nils Granlund's
Midnight Sum-" Billy Roses
chain-store night spots, Casa Ma
mana" and the Diamond Horse
shoe" and the International Ca
sino on Times Square.
The super-swanky places, such
as the Versailles Club, Dclmonico's $
on Park Avenue. the Stork Club
and the Rainbow Room, 65 stories
up in Rockefeller Plaza, ranged
from $40 to SIS minimum, but the
shedding was much tougher than
even those figures might indicate.
Most of the rabid "swing shops"
along Fifty-second street where
Fats" Waller, Joe Marsala and
the Red-Hot Brigade makes music,
were comparatively low-priced,
ranging from So minimum at the
Famous Door to So at the Yacht
Club.
One spot-Bill's Cav Nineties"
Offered it's regular shew and sup
per at no increase in prices.
In addition to the crowds that
are expected to jam Times Square
and it's environs, there will be
thousands scattered throughout
Manhattan, Brooklyn, The Bronx
and Queens, holding private revels.
The curfew on liquor rings down
at 3 a. M, Sunday, but most night
clubs are prepared to sell liquor
by the bottle to customers who
want to stock up, so joy can be
unrestrained until dawn.
