Ben Burbridge's "Gorilla Hunt" which is playing It? final local showings today at the ; Elsinore to eater, is one of those films that, were the public to realize its mer it', would keep every seat In "that beautiful - theater fiUed--matInee and evening. . ' : fearless explorer and scien tist went into the heart of the Af rhan jungle with a rifle and a cameraman and camera. In the face of death the motion picture machine clicked off themost as tounding and amazing record ' of dtring that has ever been brought out of the "dark continent." It seems like exaggeration to tell of the heirbreadth escapes, of the tbrolls and recklessness displayed in a few thousand feet of film. It ! unbelievable, yet true. The Salem school teachers who were guests of the. management deem It of great educational 'value aside from its stirring entertain ment quality, anrf .1 most T heartily -We are all adventurers at heart aijd the fascination of seeing such scenes of manly daring cannot but hold any audience enthralled. Sea scenes of beauty and vivld- , ness never before brought to the screen serve as a background for Paramount's thrilling romantic ; photoplay. "The Eagle of the Sea" nAw playing at the Elsinore thea ter. 'f lie action of this story, made f fir Famous Players-Lasky corpor , ati'on by Frank Lloyd, takes place for the most part in old New Or leans and on the Spanish Main.

V 4 At least 100 Chinese were kil led and 250 wounded in fighting today which grew out of further raids on the native suburbs of Shanghai by General Chiang's trops .which have been routing out "reds" for the past two days Pickets Shot Down ' ' This morning 20 plckets'of the Shanghai general labor union also were killed when they attacked the headquarters of the Cantonese troops in the Chapel district. The attack came after a protest parade through the district organized by workers angered by yesterday's raids on union headquarters. In the shooting that took place. some bullets entered the nearby International settlement, causing some excitement. This afternoon's raids, which re sulted in 100 dead, were conduc tedas a part of a plan to rid the Kuomlntang (Cantonese political organization) of "communists." Tomorrow, the political differ ences between the moderate wing of the Cantonese party headed by General Chiang and the radical wing which has its headquarters at Hankow, are expected to come to a head at the meeting of the Kuomlntang, called by General Chianjr at Hanking. Will Be "Show Down" Chiang's advisors at Shanghai ; say this conference will be a final show down, as to wether the na tionalists will definitely go "red" or will oust the radical civil lead ers. It is at this projected conference that General Chiang hopes to ral ly sufficient strength to oust the Hankow radicals from the party and to expel from the Kuomlntang other elements which are not sym pathetic with the socalled moder ate branch. . Among the questions to be de cided are wether the capital of the Cantonese government shall -be moved from Hankow to. Nanking and whether Chiang Kai-Shek or the radical leaders, of which Michael Borodin, Cantonese ad viser, ia one, shall dominate the party or whether there will be a definite split, with the communists functioning from Hankow, and the moderates from TCanklng. Strike Spreading Meanwhile the police received reports that the general strike cal led last night In" protest against the Taids was growing more ex- tensire and It was estimated to nisrht that 100.000 workers were out in various industrial sections of the, city, including the Interna tional settlement.

The employes of one 3 paper threatened to walk out todav but on being told not to Teturn if thev aid so. the workers remained. It Is feared; however, that they may not return tomorrow.
