UNITED Theatre - Anaheim Carl Laemmle PRESENTS DRIVEN CHARLES MACK ELINOR FAIR BURR McINTOSH EMILY FITZROY GEORGE BANCROFT From a prize story in the Cosmopolitan Magazine by J.J. Geiger A CHARLES BRABIN PRODUCTION UNIVERSAL JEWEL DENBY ORDERS WAGE SCALE RE-OPENED (By International News Service) WASHINGTON, April 26. — Because of protests of labor organizations and individuals against the government's new wage schedule for navy yard employees, Secretary of the Navy Denby has ordered re-opening the entire question with revision of scales, which were to go into effect on May 1. During the discussion, the last congress of the proposal to appropriate $6,500,000 for elevating guns of thirteen battleships of the U.S. fleet, statements were made in regard to the disparity between the ranges of guns of the ships of the British fleet and those of the fleet of U.S. These statements were made in absolutely good faith, but were shown by later reports from the government of Great Britain, to have been exaggerated. While the disparity does exist, it is not so great as was then supposed. High naval officials who believe that the United States should modernize its remaining capital ships without regard to the possible disapproval of other powers, will go before congress with a demand that the navy department be given permission to use the appropriation.

S. Shipping Board freighter Brush, which went on the rocks at Cape Arago, on the Oregon coast, was being rescued by the Coos Bay lifesaving station boats. The vessel is still hard-and fast on the rocks and up to 115 p.m., had not broken up, according to reports received by the Pacific Steamship Co., local agents for the owners. The Brush, recently bought by the North American and Western Steamship Co., was enroute from Graya Harbor to Portland, Maine via San Francisco, with a cargo of lumber. The Pacific Company, is Pacific coast operating agent for the vessel. LONG BEACH MAN FATALLY INJURED Mason R. Reading of Long Beach Remarkable Film Big Hit at United Theater After witnessing "Driven," the Charles Brabin-Universal-Jewel feature which is showing at the United Theatre, it is easy for the reviewer to understand why this picture was selected by the Exceptional Pictures Committee of the National Board of Review for major mention. It really is a film masterpiece and too great praise cannot be accorded the director and the cast of splendid actors and actresses who brought it into being. Against a background of meadow and mountain land in the Blue Ridge Mountain country the fauna of this photoplay stand out in pictorial relief which at times suggests the painting of a Millet. Indeed it is not too high praise to say that the composition in the photography is as artistic as anything yet produced on the screen. It is unusual, even in these days of superlative photography. On the same program is Isa Pierre Brookhart, noted Indian Mystic who has been held over by the United Theatre management for the balance of the week. TRIPLETT ACQUITTED C. C. Triplett is not guilty of the charge of manslaughter brought against him. A jury in Superior Judge R. Y. Williams' court so decided yesterday, after being out only a comparatively short time. Triplett was accused of slaying Malcolm Arian in a Brea poolroom during an altercation. At the corner's inquest it was declared that Arian had been suffering from heart trouble which, with slight aggravation might have proved fatal.

REYNOLDS (L. N. S. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, April 26—President Harding today launched a series of conferences with Republican opponents of his proposal to make the United States a member of the international court of justice with the object of beating down some of the bitter opposition that has been roused by the challenge thrown out on his New York speech. The first of these conferences was with Senator James E. Watson, Republican of Indiana, who, upon leaving the White House, expressed the belief that harmony would prevail and differences over the world court could be adjudged. RAPID PROGRESS ON RE-SURFACING Rapid progress is reported on the work of getting West Commonwealth avenue in shape for resurfacing by the Los Angeles Paving Company, and the street, which is now closed from Nicholas to Magnolia avenues it is expected will open for traffic within a few weeks. While West Commonwealth ave., is closed, the general traffic is going via Orangethorpe avenue, which is being rapidly broken up, and will need repairs before winter. This stretch of road is expected to receive the attention of Orangethorpe trustees, it is said. BEAN MEN ELECT Directors of the Orange-co grain and blackeye bean pool chosen Friday at a meeting in El Toro will elect officers tomorrow.

AGED MAN FOUND DEAD THIS MORNING Oscar Rowland, 65, was found dead in bed this morning at his room in Huntington Beach, 122 1-2 Thirteenth street by his landlady, Mrs. J. M. Dowdy.

The Rex Ingram Production Where the Pavement Ends By John Russell with Alice Terry and Ramon Novaro Last Times Tonight N. V. A. Road Show Vaudeville Theatre Flowers Furnished by YE COLONIAL SHOPPE 214 East Center Street SELL FIRST UNIT IN THIRTY DAYS Vallecinto, the new home-community just east of Compton on the Riverside-Redondo, has been introduced to the public less than thirty days, the first unit of the three into which the 260 acres is divided, has been nearly sold out, according to the selling agents. Arrangements are being rushed to open another unit as quickly as possible after the first is closed. The popularity of Vallecinto, it is pointed out, rests on two main features: the ability of the subdividers to sell lots at a low price, with every standard improvement guaranteed, due to the advantageous terms on which they bought the property; and secondly, the effect that is being made to discover whether or not there is oil at Vallecinto without any expense to lot owners. During the last week the Globe Petroleum Corporation has finished the foundation for the derrick of Vallecinto Oil Well No.1, started the derrick and has installed much of the drilling machinery. It is fully expected that actual drilling operations will begin in a very short time. At the same time great progress has been made with the improvement work, the agents say. Spurred on by promise of reward if they establish a record in installing the streets, sidewalks and the provisions for public utilities, the construction force has been working with vigor. Del Porte and Ryerson, the selling agents, believe improvements will be finished at Vallecinto in shorter time than at any tract they have ever handled. —Starbuck's Red. See Classified Ad.

(Hell and Maria) Dawes today raised the banner of conservatism to stem the flood of reform and radicalism sweeping the country, and organized here the first chapter of "The Minute Men of the Constitution." He expects the movement to be state-wide and perhaps nation-wide. General Dawes took a dig at reformers who, he declared, are trying to dictate to the government. "The purpose of this thing is to show these politicians and reformers that everyone in this neck of the woods isn't wishy-washy enough to fall in line with their dictations," he snorted. The general declared he selected the motto, "Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair," for the new organization. It was first uttered by George Washington, he said. JEWS ADOPT RED POLICY (By International News Service) MOSCOW, April 23.—At Minsk, recently, a conference of Jewish workers in private industry requested that the principal synagogue in the city be given them to be used as a workmanship club. Since all church property is nationalized, it is likely the request will be granted. MEXICAN COMMISSIONERS WASHINGTON, April 26.—The state department today received official confirmation of the appointment of Ramon Ross and Fernando Gonzales Roa as commissioners to represent Mexico in negotiations with the United States looking toward recognition of the Obregon government.
