MONTA BELL TELLS WHY HE LIKES STAR Director Explains Why He Recommended That Jeanne Eagels Be Signed for the Movie-Talkers. IF you don't want her, I want her. That was what Monta Bell, film executive, told his company when he directed Jeanne Eagels in a motion picture some time ago. His advice was not heeded and, when Bell was appointed eastern production manager for Paramount on the occasion of the company reopening its studios in the east, imagine his feeling when he discovered that Miss Eagels was to be the first star to make a feature picture under his supervision! "The popular opinion that Miss Eagels is highly temperamental and is hard to work wfith has no foundation in fact,” said Bell recently. “I

know of no other actress I would rather have working under me than Miss Eagels. "Our association together in making ‘Man, Woman, and Sin' was altogether happy. My interest in having Miss Eagels signed for future pictures at the time was prompted by the knowledge that she would be one of the most powerful attractions to the public and w’ould bring a fresh and desirable element to the screen. "How correct I am in holding that opinion may be seen by the star's work in ‘The Letter,’ ” he said. "The Letter” is Paramount’s pieturization of the W. Somerset Maugham stage success of last season and, besides Miss Eagels. it has a cast of stage players including O. P. Heggie, Reginald Owen, Herbert Marshall and others. Jean De Limur directed. "The Letter” opens Saturday at the Circle.

WARREN FUNDS SHORT $35,000 Final Report Made on Missing Treasurer’s Books. Emerson J. Davis is nearly $35,000 short in his accounts as treasurer of Warren county according to final report made by field examiners to Lawrence F. Orr, chief of the state board of accounts. Davis has been missing from his home at Williamsport since March. A detailed report prepared by O-

P. Everson and W. S. Gard, examiners, covers the former treasurer's records from Jan. 1, 1927, to March 18, 1929. The sums are said to have been taken from cash tax receipts and similar funds. They total $35,494, according to the report, but $519 is due Davis in salary, leaving a net shortage of $34,974. Davis placed more than $7,000 of Warren county funds to his account in an Indianapolis bank March 2, shortly before he disappeared. This has been "adjusted,” Orr said. In the last twenty-five years the use of electrical energy has increased from about eleven billion to more than eighty-one billion kilowatt hours.
