Viscount Fights /For Policy, Explains Maddox League of Motions Doings Ignored by Press ns ‘ Nothing Unusual “ We. are participants, whether we would or not, in the life of the worI'd. Wobd ro w Wi isbji. Hv william i>. MAbnox l,oue and single-handed, the Vis coiint Cecil lit1 Phelvvood, affilinted with the, eonpervat jvc party and vet tlio groa tout of British liberals, is loading ;l valiant, uphill fight in Iris country ’for sanity, prihoi|dc and vision in foreign policy. Former ly a moni’ber of, tl% Baldwin cab inet, and its representative oil the Council 'of the League of Nations as well a, at tin' 11120 disarmament conference, Lord Cecil is an ex perienced statesman, and yet his of ficial life has never extinguished the fires of his idealism. No longer under a foreign minis ter’s authority, he speaks out clear ly and with conviction for a British policy that moves toward peace as well as talking about it. This would re<■ 'ire, he says, an unconditional acceptance of the principle of com pulsory arbitration and an outlawry of aggressive war. (ireat Britain and the United States are today the foremost opponents of eoinpiilsory arliitrution, despite their declared aversion In war. If (treat Britain could lie induced to lead the way, the United States could not long stand Along, The press no longer considers the daily activities of the League id Nations, as news, nor ever the fact of growing American participation, It accepts the Lepgue as an estab lished fiict just as It accepts the daily administraI ion of our govern ment ns a fact, which . creeps into its columns only upon tin.. of the unusual. I ‘rie I La II v no men tion is given of the present Cenevn conference on the abolition of re strictions on imports and exports, to which Hugh K. Wilson, Minister to (Switzerland, Is accredited as chief American delegate. For five years, the 1 nited Stales has shown itself increasingly willitlg In take part in League nefivitieb, without incur ring, however, the ' responsibility of paying for till- use Of League offices, personn'n! and other facilities. Meanwhile, our own redoubtable Big Bill Thonipson • is again dis turbed by nightmares, this time of King (Jeorge as the bugaboo who wauls in annex America |>\ the wav of the schoolbook. Fearless and Out spoken, Big Bill rushes into tliif'l breach and his official censor is wielding the scissors and blue pencil Over Chicago's schoolbooks with! ruthless determination to keep the boys and girls id' Chicago sheltered j from the insidious designs of John] Bull and safely under the ample ’ wing of Big Bill. Following upon l lie i rent ion of a I giant steel cartel in Fumpe last I year there is now coming into being I u Knropeaii chemical tiaist, which1 will include (Ileal Britain, France,! licrinunv and Belgium and repvo- | sooting a combined ea pilnliz.nl inn of I over if 1,000,00(1,000. The purpose of this economic in-i tejmal ionnlisin in the old world' seems to lie to go after the ascend j nut ]k.-.itiyii .which flic Amnricai chcmicii! in dubr\f has attained sine, flic war.

I’niversity students were presented] by the class in Dramatic Interpre- j ; tatien last night in Guild hall. The first, entitled, “The Young Dane,” was written by Coral Agues •Graham. The story tells of the nr-. rival of a Danish girl betrothed by correspondence to Hun's? Hanson, a young Danish farmer, lately come i t o A'merica. Christine, like Guene-; yen*, is met by a Launcelot fash ioned in the form of another YTOung Dane,' named Nets Nelson, who has .made the acquaintance of Hans. In eon sequence', Hans, simple, awkward, and affect.innate, holds joint charms | for Christine as a future'husband. ! The plot then treats of the ad-1 justmdrrt of the cpjjfuse'd and disap-, pointedChristine to her strange1 alien sftfroifndmgs, her final resig nation to the homeliness of Hans > and Hans' menage after Nels is re moved hastily f|or bank robbery. The role of H.-tins; Hie young Dan#, was played by Frank Jackson, with an appealing Simplicity tarn! a pleasing | frcfdnm from, gesture. t fehor.t as the sketch was, Hans .ntiiom|ilished aq entity as. a chaiaetef. Fldrcfiiie Grimes, with u litoiide braid ‘of her hair about her; head,, played Hie' part of Christine, She | played her bewilderment to a nicety. N'cls Ni'ls/m, the handsome imposter, was played by Merle Benedict. Mar jorie Wfietsel'playcd Sarah Hanson, the mother of Flans, with convincing shrewd matcnutlisni. Tire minor charfirters of sheriff and farmer's Wife were played by .Jack W.-jldron and .Alargaret Hjench. The presentation of a wishful Iplily was given withiult Inelodrama ami with that simplicity so rarely I o' be found in amateur perform ances. - . : The .second play, a (slory .of the Teiinesse'e 'mountains, was written by I'higenia Strickland, “T’Cfther : Side,” the title; tens also the motif | of 1 he pinv, .symbolizing .the invet erate hinging of a mountain girl to cc the ‘shining city’ beyond the ihuuhtniil. Two character's, t wo stark, intense i,mountain women,; a mother ami her daughter, constituted the conflict. Harriet .Hawkins, as Mrs, Tilley, displayed an admirable piece of rharucterizali.011. Her portrayal of a .resignation to a barren life of pov- ' erty apd misfortune .was impelling, j Sal, the maleopjdnt daughter, was j I1 played l,y I'Tederieku Warren. Her | sinceie intensity supplied any de ficienCv of subtlety, and perhaps subtlety hail nu legitimate plaec in that smouldering personality. The third piny, a release from som breiiess of the two preceding plays, was styled with a charming flip jinnee. It was “The Making of Mr. Ig.” Mary Kessi was the author of this original and fantastic version of the Garden of Eden. Here is Mr. Ig, fallen prey like the self same. Adam of old to the love typhus, to ^ the fascinating and disreputable apple. The play radiates au in effable sophistication and more than charm is concealed in each of its lines. Mr. Ig of Bearskin brnvad'o, and exceeding 'aidolescenre, was Merril Swenson. lie was su natural tluit even without his eatapault and clothed in the manner of his age, he might well be though that same Mr. Ig. Helen Barnett played the part of Eva, a pernicious intriguing female lend extended to her role a spontan eity of impudence and waTitonness too 'provocative to be ignored by an apple bitten Mr. Ig. • Much of the success of the per formances must be attributed to the sincere directorship of Miss FI or.-: enco Wilbur, the. producer of the; Guild hail, plays, opd .to Mrs. Alice Ernst, from whose play writing , classes come these original products, goes a genuine acknowledgement j for her inspiratiuh to amateur Work.
