Relaxation for Tired Business Man in Church WICHITA. Kas. (AP) - Church work is recommended as a relaxation for the tired busi ness man by W. C. Coleman, wealthy Wichita manufacturer. "It's a fair trade the layman's experience for the church's spirit uality," he says. Coleman was elected to the presidency of the Northern Bap tist convention recently after years of activity in the church. "The business man who can take some time away from -Jhi' desk," he says, "will find help ing his church solve its .problems is a rejuvenator, superior in many respects to golf. The business man who has wrestled with ted ious problems of organization and financing is a valuable aid, on the other hand, to any pastor." ," The net gain in 'Income tax collections ' for the.JCirst ' nine months of the fiscal year: wa? ?227,T(H,O00.

A I Ji 5 l O E U I 3 M T STAGElSCREEN Elsinore Theater Portraying roles which afford them ample opportunities for the display of their artistry as play ers, Lya de Putti and Robert Ede- son are featured with excellent results in "The Heart Thief." a new Metropolitan picture which will be shown at the Elsinore the ater today and Monday. Joseph Schildkraut, who won fame in "The Road to Yesterday." is fea tured as leading man in the pro duction. Miss de Putti is seen as a peas ant girl in Hungary who falls in love with Paul Kurt, a gambler played by Mr. Schi Id kraut. He realizes that he is unworthy of the girl and their romance is blasted. Broken hearted, the girl accepts the offer of Count Franz Cserhati, played by Mr. Edeson. to become his wife. But the count's relatives oppose the mar riage and conspire to break off he match by hopelessly compro mising the girl. Paul is employed for that purpose, but when he learns the truth, his love is re vived and he foils the conspira tors. "The Heart Thief" is a screen version of Lajos Biro's celebrated stage play :n which Mr. Schild kra'ut starred for many months in New York. It was directed by N'ils Olaf Chrisander. Charles Gerrard. Eulalie Jensen and oth er noted players are in the sup port hm cast. The team of Kenoff and Rerova, which is featured in Fanchon and Marco's "Hoops M'ldea," at the Elsinore theater today and Mon lay. is regarded by many theatric al experts as the best classical dance combination in the world. Kenoff, the male member of the 4ance duo, studied and developed -lis art in his native Russia. He achieved unusual success there and widened the scope of his ability and popularity by tours of Belgium, France. Italy and Spain. In 1911 he made his first appear ance in the United States and soon after became solo dancer at the Metropolitan Opera house in New York, and later in Chicago. On his return to New York, to appear at the Metropolitan he met Dorothy Snodecker, a young so ciety girl from Long Island. She had been studying dancing with the Metropolitan ballet and had advanced so Tapidly that she was made premiere danseuse of that famous organization. Capitol Tlieater Edward Warren, at one time one of the prominent picture pro ducers and directors of New York, has the tmnsiiafMfstlneMen of be ing the only American-born, play er in the cast supporting Betty Compson in "The Belle of Broad way," which shows at the Capitol today and Monday. Ofthe other members Qf the supporting cast five of them. Edith Yorke. Tom Ricketts. Her bert Rawlinson. Edward Kipling and Wilfred North are English; two of them Auguste Tollaire and Armand Kaliz are French; Ervin Renard and Max Barwyn are Austrians and Albert Roccar di is Italian. All of them speak French, the universal language on the continent. Despite its New York'Ish title, all of the scenes of the picture take place in France, mostly in Paris. The leading figure in It a verv beautiful and talented act ress is internationally known as "Adele. The Belle of Broadway." During the days when the "big mob" scenes were made, Columbia studio looked as though it might have been located "somewhere in France." there were so many French and other Continental peo nle outside and inside. For these scenes Harry O. Hoyt. the direc tor, gave all his instructions in French. Such is the polyglot priv ileges of America that reacts for the mutual benefit of all.

In "A Million Bid." Miss Cos tello is cast as a poor little rich girl, the victtim of her mother's selfishness. She is practically sold to a middle-aged man of the world, and separated from th youth she loves. It is on the rich man's yacht, just after the mar riage, that the boat goes down, bearing with it the mother, and. apparently, the bridegroom. The girl and her maid are finally rowed ashore. The youth, who Is a surgeon, nurses "her back to health, mar ries her. A child is born to the couple, then happens the unex pected. Tu sea gives up its dead.

She has never appeared o wistfully lovely, so . universally appealing. UNITED STATES-ENGLAND NEARLY BREAK PARLEY (Continued from page 1.) badly in thfe three-power disarma ment conference. Mr. Gibson insisted that noth ing tangible could be achieved unless the delegates "could break the back" of the cruiser difficul ty, and he made it clear that any thing the British desired to lay down in warships or building pro grams, must necessarily be trans lated into terms of total tonnage. At the end of the session, the British tried to drive home a pro posal that . the projected navy treaty should be confined to building programs in cruisers, in stead or being concerned with warships already in existence, and returned to their old demand that a definite agreement be reached on the number of 10,000-ton cruisers, which the United States. Breat Britain and Japan, would be permitted to possess. This did not harmonize with the American idea of the treaty, because the American delegation, like the Japanese delegation.' wants to get a definite limit on total tonnage as the only possible logical, common sense arrange ment. Nevertheless, this British suggestion is being studied assid uously both by the experts and the plenipotentiaries. Private conversations continued this afternoon between the dele gates and will doubtless be resum ed tomorrow, despite the Sabbath, because all seem fearful that on Monday, unless the tension is les sened, the conference may ""tually collapse. Unless the situation Improves by Monday, it is conceivable that Mr. Gibson may definitely ask the British delegation to say "yps." or "no," whether it is disposed to reduce Its cruiser figures. This would mean that Mr. Bridgeman would be expected to answer and to indicate by that answer wheth er anv useful purpose could be served by continuing the Geneva negotiations. -, - In the meantime, the Japanese show a tendency to side more vig orously with the British in re stricting as far as possible, the number ot 10.000-ton cruisers. i.
