Walter Huston and Katherine Francis in a scene from the
Paramount Picture "Gentlemen of the Press"
''Gentlemen of the Press," late.;;
all-talking drama of newspaper
life, is nt, the Antlers today.
On the stage it wns the sensa
tion of New York nnd the story
has been faithfully reproduced for
the screen. A master cast, headed
by Walter Huston, includes six
members of the original siage cast.
The story deals with a veteran
newspaper man, who has given up

Footing With Catholic Priests Compulsory Use

Millions to Solve Labor Situation.
(Awxviiilfd 1r'M Ia-unsI Wire)
ROME, Aiis. 1. Protestant
clergymen and Jewish rabbis will
hereafter enjoy the same privilege
as Roman Catholle priests In being
able to (dead "the professional se
cret" when deelinlng to give testi
mony before the llatiau courts.
Tills Is made clear In the second
portion of the new Code of Penal
Proeedure Issued by the Minister
of Justice.
It will secure to non-Catholic
ministers the same right or keep
hiK confessions Inviolate that has
long been tacitly granted to priests
of the Romau church.
Cardinals, under the new code,
have a peculiar privilege. If .they
are cited as witnesses In legal ac
tion, their testimony may be taken
at their domiciles, since they are
considered on a par with princes
of the blood royal ami high of
ficials of the State. The Idea bo
hind this provision Is that every
Cardinal is a potential sovereign,
being eligible to election as Pope
on the death of the reigning pon
tiff, and therefore comparable with
an Italian prince In line of succes
sion to the throne. -
Gothic Restoration Costly
DUBLIN. Aug. 1. It costs the
Irish Free State half a million dol
lars yearly to enforce Its com
pulsory use of the Irish language
among coming professional men
and women.
This figure was announced by
the Kinance Minister, though op
ponents of the policy contend that
the cost, directly and IndireeUy. Is
much greater. The requirement
does not apply to present lawyers,
doctors and others, but only to
boys and girls under 15 who are In
professional sehools.
Kamon )e Valera's party Is as
eager for restoration of the Caelic
tongue as Is the government nnd
the opposition Jif believed to have
little chance of success.
Sweden Ends Idleness
STOCKHOLM. Ail 7. 1. From

a report of the State Unemploy

Ar- present the number of unem
ployed In Sweden shows a mini

tered dining 11(22 averaged about
lfiU.OOO every mouth. Only about
one-firth oT the entire sum spent

used on constructive unemploy

and railroads of a total ieimth of
more than l.ttou miles, farm im

norities protest against coercion by
their overlords; the Rhlnelnnd pro
tests; the Saar protests; farmers
protest a c a i list governmental neg
lect and the man In the street Is
forever protesting against the cost
of living and high taxation.
All these protests evoke counter
protests, and these counter-protests
lead to more protests, uud so
on endlessly.
The- city of Danzig protested
against the Versailles Treaty on
its tenth anniversary. The Poles
protested that the Danzigers had
no right to protest. Then the Dan
zi tiers protested against the Polish
protest, whereupon the Poles pro--tested.
Protesting becomes a mania in
individual cases. At Traunstein,

himself responsible for all the

U. S. Railways Copied
MOSCOW, Aug. 1 Russia Is Im
proving her fall transport with
what she calls the American pro
gram. Modern railroading methods
common on every line in the Unit
ed States are replacing the archaic
customs by which trains were op
erated over the wide-gauge tracks
in ezarist times.
Trains are now moved across the
vast spaees of Russia and Siberia
by the dispateher system. Until a
Tew years ao freight trains, once
they stopped at a station, could
move on only when the station
master decided to let them pro
ceed. When the station master had
a whim or a vodka hangover, be
took It out on the train. TJiey had
pride, the station masters, and
didn't at all like their authority
over engines and cars to be taken
away with the new fancied system.
The engineers and firemen also
had their pride wounded. In the
old days a locomotive was assigned
to an engineer and no one else
could handle it. When nn engineer
finished his run, lie put his loco
motive in the roundhouse ami here
it remained until he look H out
again.
All that Is changed. The Slate
Railroad Administration tries lo
get as much use out of the loco
motive as it can. and the engineer
who is at (he throttle of one loco
motive toilay may be in the cab of
another tomorrow.
The graft that existed before the
war has also been stamped out. In

Pole: "Gdynia."

Pole: "How are the hotels nt
Gdynia?" (with marked emphasis
on the Polish pronunciation).
German: "Gdingen (with equnllv
