A—I2 *»x» LEE WILL EXPLAIN ROAD UPKEEP PLAN Representatives of Prince Georges Towns to Hear Talk Tomorrow. B a Staft Correspondent of The Star. ANNAPOLIS, Md., January 27.—The effect on the various incorporated towns of the State administration’s plan to maintain county roads from the gasoline tax will be explained by Maj. E. Brooke Lee, member of the State Roads Commission, at a meeting | g{ representatives of Prince Georges ounty incorporated towns in the Dem- ocratic Club headquarters, Rainier, tomorrow. Delegate William F. Keys of Prince Georges County, who is arrangimg the | meeting, has tentatively set the time for the gathering at 5 p.m. Will Receive Full Value. From an_explanation of the details of the administration’s road plan, given by Mej. Lee, to a group of delegates here this week, Delegate Keys believes the towns will be better off under the new plan than at present, as they will receive the full value for any direct tax imposed instead of only a 75 per te permitted by the system now ment on the part of the Coinmission to use the s and machiner county ~govern e these are found suitable, after the on takes over the upkeep of county roads systems was an intrinsic part of the compact under which a majority of the Democrats in the State Senate have consented to Gov. Ritchie's plan of extending the 1l,-cent lateral Tord tax to maintenance and construc- tion of back roads. A major objection to the Governor's program was that expensive road ma- chinery bought by the county govern- ments would be left to rust when the State Roads Commission stepped in and that the road forces now employed by the counties would be dismissed in fa- vor of em Roads Commission. thus creating the possibility of a gigantic political ma- chine, all controlled from Baltimore. Not to Scrap Machinery. Maj. Lee told the Senators, it S learned, that the State Roads Comm: sion has no intention of wasting fund by scrapping available road machiner and that all such machinery that is owned by the countie t for service will be utilized if the commission takes O\Q'r‘lhf‘ primary roads systems. cm do the work, k, will be retained ‘The commission will not retain roads employes whose principal usefulness is their vote-getting power in the home neighborhcods.” RAID ON TWO-BIT CLUB BRINGS THREE ARRESTS Commissioner Awakened at 3 A.M.

Peggy Joyce is 5 tall ler own cook, may feet 4 inches and weighs 114 pounds. She STAR MELTED ICE USED TO OPERATE STILL 150-Gallon Plant Raided Near ‘Water Works in Anacostia Lacked Connections. WASHI Melted ice had to serve as water to operate a 150-gallon still, confiscated by eleventh precinct police yesterday, although the establishment was in the shadow of the Anacostia station of the GTON, Y. & wmle three time of the raid men | lounged in an upstairs bed room. were arrested, to be charged with illegal manufacture and possession of in- toxicants. They gave their names as Harry Lee Hilton, 22, 1300 block Seventh street; Harry A. Dove, 52, 200 block Anacostia road southeast, and Wallace J. Curtis, 28, colored, of the 500 block Pifty-seventh street northeast. | ‘The copper still was found in a cellar beneath the false flooring of the kitchen and another rear room of the house. A trap door had been cut in| the kitchen floor to give access to the | basement. Beside the cooking plant were approximately 600 gallons of JANUARY 27, 193 Mount | es selected by the State| Y 27— arrival of Lillian Harvey in Hollywood was a matter of moment. ‘The tiny star made her initial appear- ance immediately following her arrival and bowled over the assembled profes- sional group which had gathered ex- pressly to greet her. The first impres- sion is that “Congress Dances” didn’t do her justice. And that Hollywood make-up and lighting and the better | quality prints we manage to get of our homemade product will give the world a Lilllan Harvey more close to the original, which is quite an alluring thing. One of the strongest points in Lillian Harvey's favor is the fact that she re- sembles no one star that I car think of. She has a definite quality that at times, and under certain conditions, might re- mind one of Lillian Gish. But that is largely a matter of small face and fea- tures and a certain blondness. She is | less spiritual and more provocative. She | has tremendous elan—something La | Gish couldn't even assume for the| screen. She is more sparkle than spir- | itual—more elfin than cthereal. And she wore one of the most amaz- | ing costumes seen in this village of | amazing things. Of fine cocoa brown cloth, it meticulously followed the lines of a Russian Cossak coat—even to the | cartridge pleats on the bosom. The high neck was filled in with a little circular drape of jade green. On her ash, blond hair, which is very soft and lovely, like Garbo's, she wore a Cossack cap of cocoa brown angora with an edge of brown caracul. Sheer cocoa brown hose melted into brown suede Russian boots with tops of the caracul. Her figure is slimmest of the slim— no reducing diet needed here. Her eyes are gray green—not large, but fringed with long curling dark lashes. She has a piquant little face and a_personality to match and she has the evenest, whitest teeth in the world. Aside from that she has a villa at Cannes very near to that of Chevalier. She makes all her pictures in English, French and German—quite a task and ong she accomplishes beautifully. And | she® loves Hollywood already because it | | reminds her of the French Riviera. | | Her husband is Willy known on the screen in Germany. She | | came to Fox studio with the sort of ntourage great stars of silent days used to affect—a retinue including her | own designer and dressmaker. | The critics met her and_ approved. | Now all she has to do is click in an | American picture. by Adrienne Ames and Susan Fleming, two young players. who are setting the mode for that which was a vogue some five years ago. As a result the sharpest of lipsticks are used. The color is applied with a rouge which comes in little tin or glass containers. mouth is drawn—and care must be taken that a smooth, firm line is made | —the inside field is filled in with a| larger brush or the tip of the little finger. Eveshade is worn with the pale face. Gray or brown or purple in daytime, according to the color of the eyes. It | | is applied to the lid only in daytime but | at night to the area between the lid and eyebrow in a gentle fadeout toward the brawn. This make-up tends to make the eyes | larger, but it does not tend to youthify an aging face, so try it out in the privacy of your home and on a truth- telling family before venturing out among your friends. | Pesey Hopkins Joyce armived in Hollywood wi 7 trunks and 15 duffie bags, containing a wardrobe right from Paris.

He opened .one door and started to enter: “Can I come in here,” some one shouted. “Why not,” sald the chat- tering actor, “I won't interfere.” “It's dangerous,” was the reply, “we've got a gorilla here.” “Why bring him indoors when there's so little room?” said the ted thespian, who could scarcely speak: “Say, this fellow's worth $12,500,” was the comeback, “and the woods are full of youse guys.” (Copyright, 1933, by North American News- paper Alliance.
