NAVAL HOLIDAY IS ASSURED AT LONDON PARLEY U. S., Japan and Britain Ready to Unite in ThreePower Pact. BY WFBB MILLER Pm* Staff Correi>oi*rJent LONDON, April 7. —The United States, Japan and Great Britain are ready at, a moment's notice to convert their tentative agreemen' into a real three-power treaty, excluding France and Italy until such time as they compose their differences. In the authoritative speech of Ambassador Hugh S. Gibson, broadcast from England Sunday observers at the London naval conference read two messages. Prepares ‘uhlic Opinion One was to prepare American public opinion for a three-power pact instead of the hoped-for fivepower treaty. The other was a 'warning” to France and Italy that the threepower agreement virtually is in existence, and a hint that the way still is op for adherence to a major agreement, if the two continental powers will end their quarrel on naval parity. Gibson reiterated, however, that an ultimate agreement by the world's major naval powers is probable. if not at this conference, then a- the result of later negotiations. Definiteness of Gibson’s statement showed that the divergence of opinion or which the Geneva conference of lf>27 was wrecked is a thing of tile past. !'. S. to Lose Three Ships On that basis, it was figured today the three-power pact will stipulate a bidtle.ship holiday until 1936. and the . inking or scrapping of nine hr;r ships three by the United Stairs, nve by Great Britain and one by Japan. If this solution is correct. America ' ill lose the Florida and Utah, completed in 1911. and the Wyoming. completed in 1912. < eat Britain would abandon the bat l ie cruiser Tiger, and four of the Iron Duke type of battleship, the Benbo.v, Emperor of India. Iron Duke and Marboro. Japan’s concession would be the battle cruiser Kongo. JROOPS 58. 76 WIN AT SCOUT EXPOSITION Boys Prepare for Summer Camping as Annual Week-Ends.

ARLISS BECOMES A VILLAIN NOWADAYS Marie Dressier Again Walks Away With a Picture—This Time in ‘The Girl Said No’ at the Palace. BY W ALTER D. HICKMAN < COME years ago on the stage George Arliss gave up for a time the acting of great characters on the stage and turned to melodrama. He found this experiment in “The Green Goddess” so successful from j a box office viewpoint that it required several years for him to shelve it. But since the talkies have arrived Arliss again has dug out “The Green Goddess” and has made a melodramatic talker out of this reliable box office affair. Arliss was. successful in making “Disraeli” on the talking screen as an important a character as well as a play.

To a certain extent, “The Green Goddess” yields to the demands of

Arliss

still believe in an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. Two English officers and a woman, the wife of one. are forced down in this strange land when their airplane crashes. The Rajah, played by Arliss. holds them hostage and orders them to death in a weird alleged religious rite because the British has condemned two of his brothers to death. The action concerns the efforts of the three to attempt to escape from the schemes of Arliss. Any picture, even melodrama, is d'gnified bv the splendid acting of Arliss and as on the stage, he gives the role a comedy slant that many actors could never succeed in developing. When it is all said and done, "The Green Goddess” is all Arliss. The background is elaborate, especially the scenes in the temple of the Goddess. The action is mighty slow, too much talking, in the first part of the picture. “The Green Goddess.” with Arliss. stacks up as melodrama on a very high level. Personally of the two pictures, I like “Disraeli the best, but you may have a different idea. As usual be your own Judge. Now at the Apollo. a a a MARIE DRESSLER W INS ONCE MORE I am beginning to believe that when Marie Dressier is in a picture, she will walk away with the honors. Although she appears only once in “The Girl Said No,” she is a panic

Haines is selling bonds and he poses as a doctor in order to get a chance to talk with this rich mama. He lands his sale but Marie gets on the quickest souse yet recorded in a 1 film. Polly Moran has some comedy moments but she is not teamed with the famous Marie. As you know I am not so keen over many of the pictures that Haines has had. But giving the i man his due, he does attempt to be serious in part of the picture, although it gets the wildest and noisest start of any Haines picture. Haipps has built iy> his reputation by being the extreme smart alec and the box office proves that jhe is successful. Just how long he will last, I can’t tell. The. fact is that his “Speedway” holds all box office records at the Palace here and it was a mighty poor picture, i AH other pictures seem to be unable to break that record. I realize that there was lot of local interest in “Speedway,” because some of the scenes were made right here in Indianapolis. But on the whole, this new Haines movie is a little better on Haines

the talking screen. This play is melodramatic theater, made more brilliant than it really is by the fine acting of Arliss. Ralph Forbes, H. B. Warner and a scenic background that is very elaborate.

Verdict of the New Movies APOLLO—George Arless is the villain in the “Green Goddess.” Arliss does fine work, but the play as a play can not equal “Disraeli.” PALACE -Marie Dressier walks away with the comedy honors in "The Girl Said No.” William Haines is starred. CIRCLE—“The Vagabond King” is in its second week here. A mighty good picture.

part than some of his others, but 1 think you will agree with me that it is Mari* Dressier who walks away with the comedy honors. Now at Loew’s Palace. a a a WHEREIN A SON IS LOST AND FOUND “Sarah and Son” brings to us ! again the charming voice and p:rI sonality u Ruth Chatterton. Not ' since “Madame X” has Miss ChatI terton. as a victim of circumstance in the character of Sarah Storm, j given the screen such a pathetic and convincing a oerformance. Although her Sarah does not j reach the heights of* her Madame j X, this is due to the great contrast \ between the two women of fiction. : The latter, a lady of society, having been exiled into the streets, a world entirely unfamiliar to her. had to make her living the best way she could, and thereby tasted of the bitterest dregs of life; but Sarah, a working girl, fully capable of keeping care of herself, rises from a common life of drudgery, to wealth and fame as an opera singer. The picture. “Sarah and Son.’ is j rather slow getting started. The | first few scenes showing Sarah ! struggling upward, seem to be ; rather badly photographed and re- ! corded. The later mentioned might be due to the strong German accent used by Miss Chatterton. It is : Jt so strong later in the picture, but still present. And I might say Miss Chatterton manages the accent very nicely, with that one exception. Fredric March, as the young lawyer, who falls in love with Sarah, has not much to do. but he does that well. Phillippe de Lacy, as the son. does very well. The fact is the 1 entire story centers around Miss j Chatterton. as Sarah.. You are only j greatly interested in her. The only j interest you have in the son is

that Sarah gets him back again, and the love interest furnished by ! March is secondary to the plot. The plot in short is this. Sarah is married to a loafer, who running away to the marines, kidnaps her j baby son and gives him to some | wealthy people, who have no chilI dren. Sarah spends years searching for her son, and finally finds : him through the help of a young ! lawyer, who loves her. j This picture belongs entirely to Ruth Chatterton, who lift* it up, j and makes it very good entertain- . ment. The stage show “Tip Toppers Revue,” with Paul Spor. has been very well staged. Especially the start, with the crushing of the large dress hat, which brings into view the [ Charlie Davis orchestra. Paul Spor j is featured this week in a musical poem, the orchestra furnishing desscriptive melodies, as he recites the lines. I saw Paul, once at the ! Paramount in Toledo, 0., working with his own orchestra, and I want to say that he seems just as much at home here. Asa whole the presentation is nice entertainment.
