A—16 GUBERT EMERGES | " N DNORCE SUT Ina Claire’s Action Brings ,Fast-Slipping Star Into Limelight Briefly. BY MOLLIE MERRICK. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. HOLLYWOOD, Calif, July 20 (N.AN.A,). — Jack Gilbert emerges; from the twilight obscurity into which | he is rapidly passing with the head- lines of Ina Claire’s suit for divorce. Some one once said “there is nothing s0 sick as & sick star"—and the artistic malady from which Jack Gilbert has been suffering.this year and more past proves this perfectly. No matter what | Tis producers might try to do, the landslide must go on i{ past history ~makes true precedent. Lives Retired Existence” Jack Gilbert lives a more retired ex- | istence than any star in Hollywood | His home in Beverly Hills is run very’ conservatively. He has his friends visit him quite informally; he has his little beach house where his entertaining is also quite informal. He has his $1,- 000,000 trust fund which will protect, him financially to the end of his days. And he has a picture career to finish out—a picture career which is going as wrong as a career may go, with Lo hope of straightening out unless miracles happen. For producers, nervous at the sud- den turn Jack Gllbert's artistic fate took, have not done the thines cal- culated to help this star. They have taken silly chances with silly stories. They have jumped from one thing to another. And Gilbert—once the rage of the screen—has been the sufferer of their panic. At the present Jack Gilbert's inter- ests are obviously vested in a lovely Hawalian princess visiting hereabouts. She has been a favorite with movies visiting Honolulu for some time past and her trip to Hollywood has been one of the most successful on record—the golony has outdone itself to entertain er. ' Professional Rivalry Cause. The chief difficulty encountered by Ina Claire and Jack Gilbert was the professional rivalry which bothered Ina not at all, but which annoyed Jack ex- ceedingly. Accustomed for years to being the center of attraction, it irked Jack Gilbert to attend parties where his beautiful wife was the center of all at- tention because of her wit, her chic and her_originality. The sex-hero of silent filps felt eclipsed. So he made his famoufs state- ment that Ina Claire is too brilliant— too brainy to be interesting. He might have added “to me.” There are others who find her exceedingly interesting. (Copsright, 1931, by North American News- paver Alliance, Inc.) TARIFF DEFENDED . IN TRADE DECLINE Commissioner Eble Says U. S. Lost Customers Only Because of Lack of Buying. Denial that the Hawley-Smoot tariff act has contributed in any significant way to the decline of international trade was made by Capt. F. X. A Eble, United States Commissioner of Customs, in an address delivered Satur- day before the Chamber of Commerce and Customs employes of Portland, Oreg. ‘The United States has lost customers only when their failing purchasing power made it impossible for them to continue their usual buying, Commis- sioner Eble said in defense of the tariff. Exports to South America, Africa, Asia and Oceania, which have almost free access to American markets, he de- clared, have declined to a much greater extent than have exports to European countries against which most American tariff schedules are leveled. During 1930 Europe bought 48 per Mackay’s Bride OPERA STAR WEDS POSTAL TELEGRAPH HEAD. MISS ANNA CA: Is shown above shortly before her mar- riage Saturday to Clarence H.

BOY’S CLOTHES FAIL RUNAWAY OF GIRL Eleanor Ruth Rau, 13, Gets as }‘ar1 as Alexandria, but Asks Police for Ride. ‘Thirteen-year-old Eleanor Ruth Rau's plans to run away from her home at 1429 Columbia road might have proved successful today if she hadn't worn boy’s clothing. Eleanor’'s father, John C. Rau, an electrical supply dealer, with a store at 524 Twelfth street, bade her *‘good night” about 11 o'clock last night and her mother saw that she was safely tucked in bed. Along about 2 o'clock this morning, however, Mr. and Mrs. Rau discovered thelr daughter was missing. There wasn't much they could do about it except notify the police—and that's what they did. Meanwhile Eleanor had reached Alex- andria. Tired of walking, she hailed Policemen C. J. McClary and A. C. Jones of the Alexandria force and .| asked them for a “lift” to Fairfax. All might have been well if Eleanor hadn’t been garbed in a palr of white duck trousers. “You're no boy," the officers said in unison. “Better come along to the police station.” It was about 2:30 then. And about three-quarters of an hour later Eleanor’s description was broadcast from the ‘Washington Police Department’s radio station. Notified of their daughter's appre- hension, Mr. and Mrs. Rau sald they would call for her at the Alexandria police station today. CALLES ASKED TO REIGN eent of American exports, Commissioner | ... Eble quoted the United States Chamber of Commerce as analyzing, a larger proportion than at any time for five years. The customs official praised the ef- forts of President Hoover, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and Undersec- retary Mills in connection with the successful negotiations of the debt holi- day pact. “It was this diplomacy of the President that brought the leading nations of the world to an agreement in principle, which is one of the most audacious_economic proposals in world history,” he declared. PALESTINE PLAN GIVEN IN DETAIL Arabs Shown to Have Been Dis- placed From Lands to Be Listed for Resettlement. By the Associated Press. LONDON, July 20.—The Jewish Tele- graphic Agency reports details of the $12,600,000 Palestine land settlement and development scheme were made public today simultaneously in London by Dr. Drummond Shiels, undersecretary of state for colonies, and in_ Jerusalem through publication of the plan with s covering etter from Lord Passfield, colonial sec- retary, to High Commissioner Chan- cellor. In brief, it provides for preparation of a register of such Arabs as can be shown to have been displaced from the lands which they occupled, in conse- quence of the land passinf into the hands of the Jews, and who have not obtained other holdings on which they can _establish themselves, or other equally satisfactory occupation. On the basis of this register the di- rector of the development is to draw up a scheme for resettiement of the dis- placed Arab families, together with an estimate of the cost of such resettlement, which is to be carried out immediately after the high commissioner of Pales- tine has approved the scheme.

Plutarco Elias Cailes, Mexico’s “strong man,” who has twice been called from retirement to help handle emergencies, may be asked by the government to cope with the financial crisis. He is sald to be slated for the post of “financial czar” with the duty of checking the fall of the silver peso. The newspapers declare he has been offered the presidency of the Bank of Mexico. Recently he has been sitting in on cabinet sessions. Calles retired three years ago, saying he would come to the aid of the coun- try only in times of stress. The first stress came in 1929, when he took charge of the federal campaign against the Escobar revolt, and last October he intervened in a political controversy which had assumed threatening pro- portions.
