Hailed as one of the most thrill
ing as well as most exciting talk
ies yet made in which a faithful
and sincere portrayal is given of
nrwsnaner life It "Gentlemen of
the Press." This production, j
which features tnat wen-Known
and famous New York stage star,
Walter Huston, will be seen and
heard at the Eisinore, for a three
day engagement, starting Sunday.
! Russian- Actress
Will Appear at
Hollywood Here
Baclanova. the great Russian ac
tress, whom Paramount has signed
for a series of important motion
picture roles, was once a star of
the Moscow Art, theatre and later
alternated with Lady Diana Man
ners in the nun role in Morris
Gest's "The Miracle." She rose to
prominence in motion pictures be
cause of her work, in Emil Jan
aings' picture, "The Street of
Sin." Her latest role is a dance
hall girl in "Avalanche," playing
today and tomorrow at the Hollywood.

Should the present disagree-
"fientlenien of the Press" was raent between Russia and China
recently previewed at the Eisinore go to extremes, there would be
by the local newspaper fraternity, brought into conflict more than
one-fourth oi tne estimated popu
lation of the world and about sev
en per cent of the world's area.
The two could employ at once
armies aggregating more than 2,
000,000. with reserves of nearly
22,000.000 men, according to best
available data. Reliable figures
are lacking in both cases however.
tee as to their views on bis pro
posed , aliding scale sugar tariff
before calling witnesses on It He
also expressed tha oplaton there
would be o serious attempt In
the commute eto levy a duty on
Philippine products or place any
restriction on Island sugar Im
ports into the United States, al
though ha personally favored a
sugar limitation. Tne house hill
does not disturb 'existing free
trade relations between the Phil
ippines and this country.
Speculation persisted today
that if the sliding scale were dis
carded a compromise rata of 1
cents against Cuba would be
agreed upon.
No, one would comment offic
ially.'howerer, on such a prospect. ;
' While tha mala committee was
hearing witnesses suggest a score
or mora of changes In the admin
istrative sections of the bill, a
committee listened to a plea by
representatives of Independent
land midcontihent oil producers
for a duty of one dollar a barrel
on petroleum and compensatory
tariffs oa Its by-products, aU bow
o nthe free list.
Senator Pine, , republican, and
Former Representative Howard, a
democrat, both of Oklahoma; W.
Scott, Heywood, ' Jennings, La.,
representing the independent pro
ducers and royalty owners of Lou
isiana; H. B. Fell, Ardmore,
Okla., representing the Independ
ent Petroleum Association of Am-.
erica and H, L. Gandy, of the Na
tional Coal Association, appeared
ia favor of the petroleum duties.
Pine declared imports of cheap
foreign oil constitute da factor in
tha depression In the oil business
and that the present government
al policy to conserve oil resources
amounted to an attempt to control
production. Howard denied the
Standard Oil interests favored a
tariff.
The finance committee received
another foreign protest today:
The Netherlands government
transmitting a complaint by the
General Norit company, of Am
sterdam, against the house rate
increase fro mzO to 45 per cent
on ae-coiorising carbon.
and it created much comment
' The management announces a
special surprise attraction in store
for patrons of the Eisinore after j
the last show. Saturday night. Im
mediately following the regular
attraction on that night, will be
sees and heard a special motion
picture, in which will be seen the
new current Paramount pictures.
This reel was recently exhibited at
the Portland theatre, and it
proved very popular. It gives you
a glimpse of the pictures now in
the making, as well as future re
leases, which the Eisinore has
contracted for.
All those attending the regular
Saturday night performances are
requested to remain over for this
special attraction. ,
BEST TRIM EVER
In no other picture has there

phone as in "The Desert Song"
which is running at the Capitol.
"The Desert Song" will go dowa
-in screen history as the first mu

entirety to the motion picture
screen.
Other 'all talkies' have been

HOPPING their plane gently to earth

Friday, July 12th, at Culver City Air.
port near Los Angeles, Lorea Mcndell and
"Pete" Reinhart, co-pilots of the Buhl Wright
motored, air sedan "Aogekoo", completed
the greatest endurance flight in history, es
tablishing a record of 246 hours, 43 minutes
and 32 seconds in the air.
Physically exhausted themselves, bat with
their motor ia perfect condition, the flyers
were brought down after nearly a week and
a half of continuous flight because of the ac
cumulation of foreign substance on the sta
bilizer which made further flying hazardous.
Both flyers paid high tribute to Rich field Gas
oline and Richlube Motor Oil which they had
selected after exhaustive tests and which made
possible the perfject performance of their mo
tor throughout the flight.
Carrying an over-load of almost seven hun
dred pounds, in excess of the regular "pay
load" of the Buhl air sedan, their total gaso
line consumption was less than twelve gallons
per hour of flying time, while their oil aver
aged less than one quart an hour an almost
phenomenal record best expressed in Rein
hart's words, "The oil gauge' might just as
well hsve been painted. Ir didn't- drop a
pound of pressure during the entire flight.'
Once again Richfield has helped make air
history. The same qualities that made it the
, choice for the "Quostion Mark" army flight
first of die great endurance achievements;
the -selection of Captain Wilkins for his thril
ling dash over the North Pole and the choice
of winners in many other speed and endur
ance records are carried oa in this epochal
eleven days among the clouds -more than
22,000 miles' of continued flight.
Use Richfield and Richlube in your own car
the ideal combination for everyday driv
ingbetter by actual test.
