FILM STARS RIDE OVER 10-FOOT GAP Bryant Washburn and Eva Novak experienced the thrill of their lives when the former drove an auto across a ten-foot gap. This incident occurred during the filming of "Temptation," the super-production which is to be shown at the United Theatre for three days starting Sunday Matineo. The auto incident occurs when the two are endeavoring to escape, following a raid made upon a roadhouse by Federal Officers. Of course precautions had been taken to provide the take-off platform with the proper angle so that the speeding car would be projected upward and forward by its speed. Test after test was made to ensure the car landing safely, after which Edward J. LeSalut signaled the stars to get ready for the "take." Washburn started his car 200 yards away and stepped on the accelerator until the speedometer registered 50 miles per hour. The auto shot into the air, landed onto the opposite bank with a jar that almost threw the passengers out, turned sideways and then, obeying a turn of the stering wheel proceeded safely on its way. Incidentally, this thrill is but one of many contained in this picture, according to the advance announcements issued by the producers. "Temptation" is a story of present day life and contains in its supporting cast June Elvidge, Phillips Smalley and Vernon Steele. As an added attraction for Sunday Malfinne and night, the management has secured Tyran and Vincent one of the greatest of vaudeville singing, dancing and comedy teams playing the big circuits. These people are laying off this week enjoying a little vacation in sunny California and gladly consented to come down and amuse the good people of Anaheim Sunday afternoon and night. There will also be shown on the screen one of those famous Mr. and Mrs. Carter DeHaven comedies entitled "Keep 'em Home." STEAMER LOOTED 2000 JOBLESS WHEN BIG STUDIO CLOSES LOS ANGELES, Oct. 27—(INS)—With the closing today of the west coast branch of the Famous Players-Lasky motion picture studio in Hollywood for "about ten weeks" as announced two days ago, approximately 2,000 persons found themselves without work. The lay-off, admitted to be indefinite, is the longest "shut-down" of any studio in the Hollywood film colony since the influenza epidemic several years ago. Those actresses, actors, and other persons under contract to the Lasky organization will not be affected, as far as salary is concerned, by the closing order, it was learned. It was also learned that seven pictures now in process of production, will be finished, despite the closing order. Those hit by the shut-down are employees who received salaries from $50 to $200 weekly, and included extra actors and actresses, camera men and assistants, electrical workers, painters, carpenters, stenographers, script clerks, assistant directors, technical men, scenario writers publicity men, wardrobe people, hair dressers and many others. These persons will be unable to find work at other studios because they are well filled. QUIET RESTORED IN HAMBURG DISTRICT B Y S. D. WEYER I. N. S.

STEAMER LOOTED SHANGHAI, Oct. 27—(INS)—The Chinese steamer Shangan, carrying a big consignment of silver dollars, was mysteriously looted while arriving from here to Hankow today. The captain of the vessel reported that $50,000 was missing. Relations between Berlin and Bavaria have improved and the situation in Saxony is well in hand. A Rhineland second move appears to have collapsed as well as the autonomous movement in the Rhine palitinate. Open charges are made that the French assisted the separatists. Satisfaction is expressed in government circles over the news that the United States and Great Britain are working for an international conference to fix Germany's capacity for indemnity payments. Officials declare they are certain of a square deal from the British and Americans. English manufacturers are now paying more attention to the car of the 15-horsepower type now in use.

Southern California Edison Company OWNED BY THOSE IT SERVES FORBES PREPARES COMPLETE DEFENSE By WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Colonel Charles R. Forbes, former director of the U.S. veterans' Bureau, has prepared a complete defense against charges of graft and corruption in the award of hospital contracts, it was learned today. This defense will be based on the testimony of high army and navy officers and official government records will be introduced in an effort to refute the sensational accusations of Elias H. Mortimer, of Philadelphia, made during the senate committee investigation. These reports will show, said Forbes, that he did not choose the successful bidder on any contract, but that he merely approved the recommendation of the army quartermaster corps and the navy bureau of docks and yards. The many and navy officers will be called as witnesses to substantiate the records. While Forbes was directing the preparation of his defense from seclusion in a sick chamber, runners were current today that other high public officials will be drawn into the investigation. The names of a former high government officer and of a United States senator were mentioned. The senator was said to have obtained a contract for a relative to furnish veterans' bureau supplies at an "unusual profit." Senator Tasker L. Oddie, republican member of the senate committee meanwhile issued a warning of criminal prosecution for any witness found to have perjured himself. During Forbes administration, only eight hospital contracts were awarded and of these, the navy handled three recommendations and the army five, he will contend. The total amount of money involved in the eight contracts awarded by Forbes on army and navy recommendations was about $11,000,003. GET OUT OF JAIL Much excitement was caused on North Sycamore this morning when it became known that several prisoners had flown the coop and escaped. County Jailor Orin Moncrief got busy with several aides at once but at last word his efforts were futile. Moncrief was giving his canaries a sun bath when they pushed the door open, or it became unfastened, and two or three of them flew out, perching upon the monkey trees which adorn the premises. Moncrief turned the hose on them and sticks were thrown into the trees, but to no purpose. For all we know they are roosting there yet. CHARGE CRUELTY Cruelty including gross infidelity is alleged by Clarence L. Royer in a suit for divorce filed today against Lillian J. Royer. They were married at Waksey, S.D., Nov. 10, 1919, and have a boy of seven. The wife's infidelity continued after they moved to Orange co., says the complaint. General relief besides divorce is sought.

They were married at Yuma, Ariz., Oct. 18, 1921, says the complaint, and separated June 5, 1922. There are no children and the couple have no community property. Attorney's fees, costs and other general relief are asked.

The polls will be open until 8 this evening, and it is ardently hoped that a large portion of those who have not voted reach the polls before that time. The school is badly needed and unless the bonds carry and the district is permitted to build, temporary buildings will necessarily be purchased, as the law compels children to attend school, and they must be housed.

STAFF CORRESPONDENT PARIS, Oct. 27—Premier Poincare will make a speech at Sampigney, replying to the proposal of the British premier, Stanley Baldwin, for an international conference to discuss reparations, it was revealed by the foreign office today. While M. Poincare will accept the proposal for a commission of experts to discuss the subjects under jurisdiction of the inter-allied reparations commission, he will emphasize that France will never accept any reduction of the Gérman debt and that the commission must not modify the Versailles treaty. Diplomatic maneuvering has already begun in preparation for the proposed conference of experts. If the United States refuses to cancel the French debt, France may attempt to throw responsibility for the reparations chaos upon Washington. England has already funded her American debt.
