MELLON PLEA FOR tTAX REDUCTION SENDSSTOCKS UP Industrials Benefit by Secretary’s Statement, but Rails Continue to Slip Back, The WALL STREET JOURNAL XEW YORK. April 9.—News over ,he week end was completely over shadowed by Secretary Mellon's plea for a further reduction of the surtax rates and the lifting: of other tax restrictions from business activity Industrial stocks were stimulated in the early dealings by this development for a lower sur-tax would result in he shifting of a huge amount of cap"al into taxable securities and into general business expansion. Industrials advanced, but rails declined. First Hour Trading was quiet in the first hour, but the action of the main body of stocks indicated a healthy situation in the market's internal structure. American Locomotive and Baldwin •cached new highs on the recovery, and operation for the rise went ahead .n a few specialties, while the general was almost wholly free from sellPng pressure. Second Hour Finding the market inclined to turn dull on the advance. professional operators tried their hand on the short side in the late morning, concentrating on pivotal stocks like American Can. Studebaker, Baldwin and Corn Products. Recessions averaging more than a point in these issues produced considerable unsettlement throughout the list and the market had a heavy tone at noon. Noon Hour Selling was checked in noon dealings through diversion of speculative interest into .1 few stocks like Ashphalt, which advanced to anew high on the move, and Phillips Petroleum. American Woolen met good support around 102. Placing $700,000 charges ahead of the common by issance of the preferred stock was offset by the fact that Woolen is doing the largest business in its history.

Modern Robinson Crusoe Uses “Sub”; Murray at Ohio —Griffith Film Here

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN MEET the 1923 Robinson Crusoo. The latest Crusoe does not have a dog or the faithful Friday. The 1923 brand has a dashing heiress and a New York detective as his companions His home in exile is not a crude hut. but a wrecked S iodern ocean lir er. i’he inhabitant * of he island are not ailorß and pass lgjiH from >ther loderr: Robinson ’rusoe Is found in movie fan who sees this one will SILLS have a grand ; r. 1 glorious time. It 1* frank romantic melodrama. Thi- ,s happen which couldn't occur any place but in a story or a movie Here is darn good entertainment. Sills is cast as a man wanted for murder in New York. He has been sentenced to the chair, but escapes. The story opens with a New York ne tective returning Sills to New York from Italy. The journey is being made on a modern ocean Ur et. On the boat is a rich and pretty young 1 eiress. The line is wrecked and th oi.ly three saved are the heiress, tl e detective anil Sills. What a “merry” ittle parfv it is. The liner is wrecked near the mysteries island of lost ships. Here we meet the strangest and roughest gang 1 ever have seen on the screen. As 1 have said the inhabitants of these wrecked ships are sailors and pass- , tigers from otho. boats. There are only two women in the colony and the arrival of Anna Q Nilsson. Sills and the detective cause quite a Bennation. The Island is ruled by a sailor who determines to make Anna his wife. Anna agrees not. So Sills and the sailor ruler stage a whale of a battle which would make Jack Dempsey green with envy. Sills wins Anna, but the sailor plots trouble. Sills, Anna and the detective make a sensational escape In a submarine. In the end. the three are happy because Sills isn’t guilty of any crime at all. Underwater S<enes Are Splendidly Han lied by Tourneur The value ot this movie rests upon the manner by which the director has photographed It. He has constructed a regular ocean gruve yard which contains the wrecks of hundreds of ocean vessels, old and new. The underwater scenes have been handled in splendid fashion. The sub marine scenes, showing the under water monster coming to the surface as well as the Interior scenes of the sub, will make Tourneur famous. He has made an mprobable story appear

DETECTIVES LOOK INTO REPORT OF SiITH MARRIAGE Investigate Story Alleged Killer Was Husband of Victim. Whether Albert V. Smith, 32. was married to Theresa Perry, 42, when site was murdered at her homo, 729 Rochester Ave., the night of April 2, became an interesting question to detectives today. Smith Is alleged to have cut Mrs. Perry's throat. The theory is that he was jealous. George A. Butcher, farmer, living near Fiackville, for whom Smith worked for several years, told a Times reporter ho was certain Smith was married to Mrs. Perry because he had ttsked permission to bring her to the farm to lue. Police Bay Smith roomed at mo Perry house several months last year until Mrs. Perry prosecuted hint for threats against her life. ' Reported Divorced Mrs. Perry had been the wife of Fred Perry, now at Astoria. Ore. Police say they have been Informed she was divorced front him. Butcher said Smith made a trip to Oregon to make certain they were divorced two or more years ago. A statement of Mrs. Jenny Louise Perry, 535 Livingston Ave., today further complicated the investigation. She is the mother of Fred Perry. She does not believe her son and his wife had been divorced. “Theresa Perry was not at any time married to Bert Smith,” declared Mrs. Jenny Perry. If Fred obtained a divorce he obtained It unlawfully, because he had been in continuous correspondence with his wife for the past two years and he promised her continuously to come back home. She showed me her letters. She prayed continuously for her hus band’s return. Roomed at Home “Bert Smith roomed and boarded several months at her home last summer. "She told me Smith wanted her to get a divorce from Fred Perry and marry him. but she said she could not care for any one but her husband. She said Smith threatened her life every time she told him that she could not marry him. “I ask the public to let the dead est in peace. The Bible says: ‘He that Is without sin cast the first stone.' ” Trains Watched for Suspect Police watched outgoing trains to lay for a man suspected of stealing ?46 from tne trousers of Jack Kim, 830 N. Illinois St.

| The truth is. Miss Murray does some ; pleasing work The director has seen ! to it that the movie has been perfectly mounted and photograpned “Jazzmanle" is best enjoyea when considered as a satire or burlesque on the jazz craze In it. a queen goes dippy every time a jazz orchestra strikes up a Ted Lewis tur.e She even forgets her kingdom for Broad way but returns when the national anthem of her country is played louder than a Jazz tune. Th* bill at the Ohio includes music by the new Ohio syncopated orchestra ,|. .|. Griffith Gives His Idea of a Mystery Movie Some time ago D. W Griffith decided to do something different. The "different” thing is a photo play called "One Exciting Night," a mystery movie, now on view at Mister Smith's. This movie has oeen reviewed at length n this department. Since that review. "One Exciting Night" has been presented in London, England. This movie is a combination of thrills and iaughs. i will confess that I had to 3ee this movie twice before I could figure it out. That is the chief test of any mystery play. Gris fith has suceeded In baffling even the wise ones in this movie. He has mixed plenty of laughs with the thrills. Even the first real mystery p’ay, "The Bat” on the stage, proved he necessity of having comedy to releave the tense situations. So Griffith has lecognized the same theory in his mystery movie. In all of Griffith’s movies, there is always one gigantic scene which re mains in one memory box. In “One Exciting Night," it is the storm scene This storm score will stack up fa- i vorably In comparison with anything Griffith has done. The movie as a whole ;* not what one expects from Griffith. Yet, I think that Griffith has won his point—that to thrill and amuse at the same time. Carol Dempster and Henry Hull have the chief roles. Their love scenes are nicely handled Porter Strong as a colored servant and Irma Hafrison have the two comedy roles j which relieve the dramatic tension. I found this movie exciting entertainment. At Mister Smith's all week. •I- -I- -I* Grand Players In Second Week Here The Grand Players are In the second week of their engagement at English's. The bill this week is "Lilac Time."
