LUBITSCH AND EX-WIFE FIGHT. = |ALLEGED GAMBLER o O, SUBMARINE TYPES UNDER INQUIRY ., 51 Navy Board Discusses Con- struction Authorized Un- der London Treaty. By the Associated Press. ‘The type of submarine which the Navy is to build under the London treaty has been under discussion by the Navy General Board for the past month, it was learned today, with em- hasis in the studies placed on num- rs rather than size of the vessels. Naval opinion has held submarines of the past not entirely successful--the S-boats, of about 800 tons displacement, have proved too small to be of value with tie fleet; the V-boats, of approxi- mately 1,900 to 2,700 tons, are excellent, but so large they reduce m itly the number which now eould built within treaty tonnage. Vessels “Over Age” Listed. A total of approximately 39,000 tons ©of submarines become over age within the life of the treaty, or at the close 0( 19304 ‘Those which do not become r age are 9 V-boats and 11 S-boats, 'of&"nfl 26,900 tons, 7 of the 9 V-boats flxud: \;lw'; :l; bullgrl.rz:g, tb:’ other 2 are appropriated for. e treaty mits 52,700 tons of submarines. ¥ he board thus has nearly 26,000 tons with- in which to determine the t; of sub- mersible which most efficiently fills its needs, and yet allows enough vessels for | all practical purposes. i New Designs Considered. i A number of new submarine designs have been considered. It is understood now that the submarine most favored is one which displaces appraoximately 1,000 tons. Should this type be ap- proved soon, construction nxight be un- dertaken, using the appropriations made for the V-8 and V-9. d a tonnage between 1,000 and build vessels within the 26,000 tans. 9 V-Boats and 11 S-boats, the Navy ‘would be equipped with 40 effective sub- marines on December 31, 1936, the date of :xvmuon of the London naval treaty.

Film Wrxter. apped After Tilt With Hans Says Rival Deserves 100 Years' Marriage to Former Mate. By the Associated Press. HOLLYWOOD, Calif,, October 8.— A fisticuffs exhibition between Ernst Lubitsch, prominent motion picture di- rector, and Hans Kraly, film _writer, which enlivened a ball given by Fairbanks and Mary Pickford here Saturday night, apparently had reu:hed the simmering stage today. Lubitsch and Kraly, once close friends, met at the grand opera per- formance here last night and acquaint- ances said many glares were exchanged. Face Reporied Slapped. Mrs. Helene Lubitsch, divorced wife of the director, accompanied Kraly to the opera. It was Mrs. Lubitsch who ended the Saturday encounter between he'r former husband and Kraly with a esounding open-handed blow to Lu- bnacha face. She accused the director of jealcusy and said he did not want her to have other men pay attention to her. Lubitsch, confirming reports of the battle, said he struck Kraly because the lln iter, | up Lubitsch’s home, writer and Mrs. Lubitsch taunted him and ridiculed his dmcln. Kraly declared, “I don't know what it is all about.” He denied he had broken as the. director asserted. 3 Not Sure of Wedding. Commenting on reports that she and Kraly would be married some time in the future, Mrs. Lubitsch said she was not sure that she would wed the film writer, declaring “only time will tell.” Mrs. Lubitsch’s divorce was in the form of an interlocutory decree, granted two months ago. Kraly, also married previously, said he expected any time to ‘receive word from Berlin '.hlt his wife, from whom he has been separated seven years, has obtained a divorce from Lubitsch asserted Mrs. Lubitsch had told him she and Kraly intended to be married. “I shall send them a marvelous wed- ding present,” the director declared. “I hope they are married 100 years. He deserves it.” CLAYTON DEFENDED BY CITIZENS' BODY Columbia Heights Approves Views Expressed on Gas Rates at Public Hearing. ‘The Columbia Heights Citizens’ As- sociation last night joined in the de- fense of Willlam McK.
