The island is, in fact, something | of a frontier. Potentially it affordsj a wonderful outlet for the develop- ing Filipino people, but thus far little has been done to take ad-| vantage of it. It has been figured that if enough Christian: Filipinos can be persuaded to take root here, it will help to relieve population pressure in the crowded portions of the archipelago, and at the same time have a salutary effect upon the Moro, who has been more or less of a thorn in the flesh for 309 years. Would _Assimilate Moro It is generally agreed that the best way to settle the Moro prob- lem is to assimilate him or, failing in that, to put so many Filipinos on Mindanao that the Moro will be |the minority factor in numbers and influence. ~ That would ultimate ly dispose also of the question of Japanese domination. One of the great handicaps off this program is the government's lack of money to carry it out, and Filipino politicians refuse to amend restrictive land laws which make American capital fear investment in the islands. e SAVE THE DATE | st Patrick's Day Dance, March| | 17th, Elks Hall.

Next Big Blimp Will Be Housed on Pacific Coast (Continued from Page One) navy trerman-made rigid airship. First on the contemplated pro- gram for developing Sunnyvale will be the eraction of a hangar, esti- mated to cost $2,500,000, for which the navy hopes to let a contract in June. It will be 1,172 feet long, 308 feet wide, and 194 feet in height, large enocugh to accommodate a dirigible of 10,000,000 cubic feet size. A mooring mast, towering 90 feet, will be erected, while a perfected mobile mast, similar to the one de- veloped at Lakehurst to tow ships into the hangar with less man- power, may be provided. Near San Francisco Bay The hangar will be started first, because it will take longest to Other work will be under- taken later, including construction of shops, power and water plants, facilities for handling helium, the lifting gas, quarters for personnel, administration and recreation build-| ings, and an aerological station. Sunnyvale borders on the tide- lands of San Francisco bay in a valley between the low Santa Cruz mountains which parallel the west coast and the Mount Hamilton range. It is 20 miles from the Pacific ocean and has an average elevation | of 15 feet above sea level. For flight operations, studies have thown that there are about 220 days. clear, 75 partly cloudy, 70 cloudy and about 60 rainy. ‘The average wind speed is 5.6 miles an hour. The wind direc- tion is nearly constant, being north northwest for nine months and outheast for the remainder of the year. George Hill directed the new pic- ture, an original by Frances Mar- Cther notable players in the cast are Lowis Stone, Karl Dane, George Marion, DeWitt Jennings. Mathey Betz, Claire McDowell, J. C. Nugent and Robert Emmet O'- Conner., Aciual machine gun fire was. re- d for the first time by a new discovery. A jail yard riat, with 1,000 men scattering under ' gun fire, the thrilling riot in the mess hall, and the dramatic end of the when army tanks quell the t, are shown on a huge scale. | Forceful and Realistic o2 dialogue is specially forceful and realistic, with its prison jargon and criminal argot giving it a vivid actuality. Remarkable recording and effec- tive light and shadows in photog- raphy do much to heighten the ef- fect of the unusual photography. The added feature is “The King," a Harry Langdon picture.

His Royal Majesty, the ,King, Played by Langdon, is very effec- tive in his boots, high stockings and chort, puffy legged trousers. A cloth of gold gown adorns Queen Thelma, and four ladies are re- quired to hold the train of her er- mine and velvet mantle. Langdon’s comical antics are fun- nier than ever in this comedy. PLANES ON YUKON H. L. Blunt and Ralph J. Mer- rill are aboard the Yukon bound for Valdez with two airplanes which will be operated in the interior dur- ing the coming season. Mr. Blunt is accompanied by his wife and daughter Maxine. e CARRINGTON IN NORTH Glenn Carrington, prominent business man of Ketchikan and Juneau, came north on the Yukon and left the steamer at the First City.
