ExcellentiSea Film At Capitol

“lhe Ship 11mm Shanghai." Met- go-Coidwyn-Mayers adaptation of pale Collins‘ novel, “Ordeal," now on new at the Capitol Theatre. leaves. ms well-beaten track of film ro- pence to depict the story of a group pf people at sea who are driven to desperation as a result of a mutiny by the ship's crew and an impend- ing water famine.

This picture could stand alone on the novelty oi its plot, few film pro- ducers having had the courage to venture into the realms of a scenario at) per cent of whose setting is Laid on the high seas. Metro-Goldwyn- lftyer, however, saw the immense potentialities of just such a sto_v.

The ocean spectaclu of this pic-

ture are worth going miles to see. lilo yacht on which the action takes place is shown out of sight oi land first during a calm in which the ves- sel is mirrored on the glass-like sur- face of the enormous expanse of water and later during a typhoon when the ship is tossed about in the Rlrmoil of wind and waves. As the huge rollers sweep over the decks. breaking away masts and rigging, one wonders at-tha ingenuity of the camera technicians in photograph- ing the spectacle. _

A large cast of equally competent players helps put theunusual story across. Louis Wolheim, as the half‘ med steward who gains control of the ship, gives a brilliant perionn- lace. Others in the cast in promin- ent roles are Conrad Nagel, Kay Johnson, Camel Myers, Holmes Her- bert, Zeffle Tilbury. Ivan Linow and Pat Moriarity.

"The Ship ‘From Shanghai" is Probably the most colorful tale of the sea ever filmed and has been acted and photographed with such I dcsree of realism that this scribe Walked out the Capitol Theatre with the smell of salt water in his nostrils.

Sent Up To Supreme Court

(Special to the Guardian)

SUMMERSIDE, April zit-The pre- liminary hearing of Frank Richards occupied the attention of Summer- slde court all day yesterday when‘ he was committed for trial at the next Supreme Court on three sep-l arate charges of theft. '

The case of the robbery at George Shelfocrfs store was resumed before Messrs. T. D. Carruthers and H. J. Messy and the prisoner sent up to the Supreme Court on the two charges of breaking and entering Mr. Sheifoons store on the nights of January 3rd: and 16th and steal- ing goods ‘to the value of $160. He was then arraigned on a further charge of breaking and entering the

growth is that of the Central Cream- cries Limited which today celebrates the tenth anniversary cf its indust- rial life. Beginning business in a small way on April 24, 1921, and for a time confining their activities to the manufacture of ice cream, the Central Creamerles Ltd. are operat- ing three large creameries, and a buying station, the Central Cream- erics, Charlottetown, the Perfection Dairy, Summerside. the Souris Creamery, Sourls and the St. Geor- ges buying station in Kings County.

During i930 the company paid

$145,000 to the farmers of this Pro- vince for cream and milk, used for the manufacture of the various pro- ducts. - In the Charlottetown plant Per- fectionbrand butter and ice cream is manufactured while in Summer- slde in addition to manufacturing butter and ice cream the plant dis- tributes pasteurized milk. In Souris manufacturing activities are coniin- ed to Perfection butter.

The manufactured products are distributed to all parts of the Island by rail, boat, and truck. A large quantity of both ice cream and but. ter is shipped to the Magdalene Is- lands.

The ice cream trade is expanding rapidly. The fact that ice cream is no longer looked upon as a luxury, but as a valuable food, and that this Province is increasing in popularity as.a summer resort are the- chief causes of this expansion. There are no markets as good as the.home mar- ket. ~

Both Charlottetown and summer- slds plants are equipped with mech- anical cold storage, a necessity for the proper care of dairy products. A unique feature of the Summer- erslde plant is the recording ther- mometer which registers on a chart the temperature of milk as received, the temperature oi the milk as pas- teurized, the length of time the milk was held at pasteurizlng temperat- ure. These charts are examined fre- quent1y'by the health officers, and constitute a safeguard for citizens of Summerside, who may examine the charts at any time.

Certain evidence of the employees was taken and on motion of counsel for the prosecu- tion the case was postponed until April 25th to procure the attendance of some important witnesses to Iprove the identity of certain goods alleged to have been stolen.

“The Big Trail”

-The screen at the Prince Edward ‘Ilrcatre yesterday was a kaleidoscope oi widely varying but always absorb- ing hues. Now it was filled with the vivid dyes of robust, exciting action, now with deep colors of the inter- play of intimate human emotions, often with sweeping canvases of spectacular natural beauty.

Such is the composition oi Raoul Walsh's Fox Movietcne drama of pioneer days, “The Big 'I‘rall." Every foot of film bcspeaks the fact that no expense has been spared on the production. It is made on an im- pressive scale and directed with brill- iant, hard bitting, suspenseful forth- rightness. As entertainment it is un- surpassed.

The picture opens with thestart of a pioneer wagon train westward and recreates a series of stirring episodes, including the fording of‘ the turbulent Snake River in_ Wyc- ming, bogging down of the train in a ‘desert mudhole, s, battle in which hundreds of real Indians participate, a buffalo stampede and the lowering ‘of wagons, equipment and humans down the side of a, precipitous cliff.

0n motion oi Mr. Alicnthe House went into committee with Mr. Ar- senauit on an act to amend the Summerside Incorporation Act, 1923.

The amendment empowers the Town Cxzaucil of Summcrslde to borrow a further sum not exceeding $30,000 for the purpose of construct» ing permanent streets in addition to any amount already authorized for that purpose, and to issue debentur- es for the amount. .

A sub section to the amendment empowers the police officers of the towntocnter by dayornight into any house, apartment. room or rooms where it is known or suspected that prostitution or other immoral con- duct is carried on. and to arrest all parties found therein in breach of the by-law.

The bill was agreed to without amendment.

Hon. Mr. LePage asked if there was any Provision whereby the as- sessment roll should be open to the public. A man has a perfect right, he said, to know what taxes his neighbor is paying. Also, he said citizens were not satisfied with the Appeal Board. It should be composed of three independent‘ men, not em- ployees of the city.

At 1 p. m. the House took recess until 3p. m. '

AFIERNOON SESSION

frhird reading was given " to an Act to Amend an Act ioqncorporate the Prince Edward Island Potato Growers Association; an Act author- izing the issue of debentures for the City of Charlottetown; an Act to amend the County Courts Amend- ment Act 1878, and Acts in amend- ment thereof. _

‘The House resumed committee reading of the Act to consolidate the statutes of the City of Charlottetown with Mr. MacLean in the chair.

Hon. Mr. LePage thought there should be some tax levied to light- en the tax on thebllslnas and res- idential sections of the city. The present system. he claimed, was an- tlquated and inequitable. The speak- er complained that he had to pay what amounted to an exorbitant in- come tax to the city in addition to‘ his income taxes to the Province and} the Dominion.

Hon. Mr. Wright thought each in- dividual should be obliged to pay either on his income or personal property.

Mr, Arsenault thought this was a mutter for the City Council to deal with. If a 0011111.: of members of the Legslature are dissatisfied with their civic taxes, why should they not go to the City Council.

Mr. Allen took the stand that the Legislature had a right to deal with the matter. '

Mr. MacPhee supported Mr. Le- Page. He thought there was a very unfair system of taxation in Char- lottetown. ,

Mr. Mustard said the House had pent a good deal of time discuss- ing this matter and the House-was no further ahead. He would like to hear some suggestion as to how the

embers were to get back to their homes within a reasonable time.

Mr. Arsenault pointed out that the Legislature was not changing the rate of taxation under which the cit- izens have been living. There was no evidence that a majority of citizens were dissatisfied.

Mr. Dennis thought that if there had been any injustice the legisla- ture would have been petitioned by the citizensto change the statute. ‘that, however, was not the case.
