COUNT IS EXPECTING TO RAISE LUSITANIA; INTEREST IN SECRETS By C. E. MORRIS (United Press Staff Correspondent) LONDON. July 17. Speculation Is rife hero and on the continent as to tho possibility of raising - the Lusitania, Whether the salvaging is successful or not, revelations of historic import are expected to follow the attempt. Did the Lusitania carry munitions? That is the moot question which the salvaging operations are expected to clear up.

The German press is taking a par ticularly keen interest in the project Berlin papers, which have recently been devoting considerable space to discussions of war guilt, are agitating for the appointment of a German of ficial witness of the salvaging attempt. Count Charles Zaradl Landi, who will command the specially-equipped ealvage ship, "Semper Paratus," Is confident of success. "The Lusitania, he told an interviewer, "lies in 280 eet of water on a clean gravel bottom. No attempt has ever been made to raise her, because the limit of diving possibilities has hitherto been not much more than 120 feet. The new diving suit which I have invented will enable my men to work at a depth of 500 feet." "Do not expect to bring the Lusitania home under her own steam?" the count was asked. Engines Disabled. "Perhaps not,' 'the salver replied." 1 expect to find her engines disabled by the torpedo that severed her main steam pipe, thus instantly stopping all her mechanical functions when she was hit. Had that fatal torpedo struck 30 feet further forward, the Lusitania would never have sunk. She could have limped along those few miles and been safely beached. "If it is mechanically possible," said the count, "three days are all that are necessary to get the englnes-of a salvaged vessel in order again. There is no rust. The deeper the water in which a ship has been lying, the less rust there is." Count Landi does not appear disturbed by the report that an American firm is already proceeding across the Atlantic to salve the Lusitania. "The Ayeready Salving and Towing company, of which I am managing director," he said, "has been granted a three-year contract by the Liverpool and London War Risk Insurance com pany, the British owners of the vessel and her contents." Count Landi, an Italian by birth, is a naturaized- British subject He spent years in Canada at ship salving and hydrographic surveys. His Greatest Triumph One of the count's greatest triumph as a 6alver was the raising of the French steamer "Evangeline," which was torpedoed near Corfu and sank with a heavy and extremely valuable cargo off the Madonna Rocks. The French Admiralty sent for Lanli. Contre Admiral Mprvpiiipn-r An vi m a n-r In command or ine eastern Mecnterranean, was sceptical as to the success of the attempt. After going down, examining the ship and estimating the difficulties, Landi said to the French commander: "I will have her up in six days." The admiral laughed tolerantly. "She came up in five days four hours and 22 minutes," said Landi in describing the salving ol this -vessel. Landi has had 18 years experience In salvaging work. While operating under Sir Vincent Gregh, of the British Salvage company, of London, with Constantinople as his base, he brought up many ships of all sizes in the Black Sea, the Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmora. During and since the war he has had charge of the salvaging operations of various companies chartered by the British Admiralty. One of the grimmest tale3 of salving that Count Landi has to tell is of the King Alfred. When she was torpedoed. a gramaphone concert was going on in the ward room. "Rule Brittania was being played as she sank. When me saivers Drought up the gramaphone half a year later, full of water but undamaged, the record was i-till in place. The machine was dried out and the unplayed half of the record was heard on the salvage ship.

Hsuan Tung, former Emperor of the loss of his realm has been allowed of three wives, whom he will marry old. which is considered man's estate near the palace of the President, MURRETTE The majority of the successful directors and stars of motion pictures today received their early training in the school of comedy. Their success in dramatic and melodramatic production is attributed to the face that comedy demands continuous action and it is now found that this is the most important essential of all motion pictures. The chief complaint against the majority of cinema productions is that they drag. This fault Is rarely found in pictures produced by men who have graduated from the comedy school. "Reported Missing," playing at the Murrette is generally credited with being the- greatest action picture ever made. Henry Lehrman, one of the Sennett school, has proven himself a master of melodramatic comedy. If ever the phrase "not a dull moment was appropriate It is to this picture. Thrilling races between hydroaeroplanes and sea sleds, speeding auto mobiles, exciting sea scenes, fights and comedy situations follow in quick succession and throughout all there Is the necessary touch of romance. "Reported Missing," made by the Selznick company, is a classic and is prov ing one of the really great pictures of tho current season. MURRAY Why Is it some motion pictures give the audience the impression of having seen a clear, smoothly running story, while others leave a confused jumble of scenes in the mind?

China, who in compensation for a huge income and the privilege in October. He is now 16 years in China, and he lives in Tekin, - theatre, is of the former class. The reason why is told by Paul Bern, one of the most progressive of motion pic ture directors, who made this comedy Says Mr. Bern: "Why motion pictures were in their infancy, the custom of using retro epect to fill in gaps in the main ac tion, was employed extensively. Re trospeet is cutting back to scenes years previous, and often tends to con fuse the sequence of the picture. Now that the art is becoming more finish ed, it is the object of the director to make pictures with as little retrospect as possible, unless of course, there is an entire episode of the picture which must be shown that way. The straight running story, especially in the comedy type of picture, is the one the audience enjoys best, I believe." school picmcA Thursday, at Cedar Springs Mrs. Walter Coblentz and Miss Brown were guests Sunday eve ning of Mr. and Mrs. T.
