NEW BILLS AT THE THEATERS
WASKI.YOTO.V, Feb. 5. (Special.)
Whll the United States government
j la not participating in the demand of
the allie for the surrender for trial
by the entente of more than 809 for
mer German officials and officers, in
cluding three members of the royal
family, officials are watchingr devel
opments with kaen interest.
Ambassador Wallace, as a member
of the council of ambassadors, is
keeping: in touch with developments.
A heretofore announced. Ambassador
Wallace has. no voting authority and
can act on matter coming before the
ambassadors only on specific instruc
tions from the state department.
That the political situation in Ger
many as the result of the demand for
the surrender of this long list of per
sons who played a prominent part in
the war against the allies and asso-
ciated nations is grave," is conceded
in official circles here.
V. S. Mmy Ye Participate.
Inasmuch as the Versailles treaty
makes wovislon for the surrender of
an indefinite number of German offi
cials and officers of the army and
Jt navy, and the United States is a sig-
Datory probability, only the fact. that
the senate has not ratified the treaty
j prevents active participation by the
united states in tne aemana.
The physical difficulty of arresting
. so large a number of prominent Ger
Vans and transporting them safely
to France or Belgium is recognized
- here as a real one. The wisdom
the allies demand that Germany com
ply with this provision of the treaty
is recognized as a question of policy
to be determined by the allied
thorities.
Some fear is expressed that if tfi
Ebert government-should fall as th
result of an attempt to comply with
the allies' demands and fulfill thi
treaty obligation chaos might follow
that would seriously affect all allied
countries. .
Grave Problem Presented.
The fact that the partial list of
names of army officers whose sur
render is demanded for alleged war
crime includes the names of Ger
many s most brilliant field com
manders and staff officers, the met
who directed the Beveral great of
fensives when Uermany was making
real progress in the war, many of
whom are extremely popular at home,
is said to make compliance with the
demand the more difficult.

Deportation of four Canadians from
this state was furthered yesterday
when Deputy United States Marshal
John Mann and Naturalization Inspec
tor V. W. Tomlinson left for the north
with the undesirables in their custody.
The group was made up of Annie
Dolan and Mamie Wilcox, two Indian
girls who ran away to get an edu
cation at Chemawa: Frederick George
Golding. who made himself famous
by coming across the border in search
of a spirit wife, and Wilfred Ber-
gerson, an Illiterate who dodged the
officers and joined his uncle in Marsh
field. '
The Indian girls would have been
permitted to remain in the school had
it not been for the regulation pro
hibiting the government from stand
ing the expense of educating foreign
born Indiana. Parents of the girls,
who are both 15 years of age, were
unable to pay the J200 a year tuition.
Golding's eearch for a spirit wife
Is said to have been prompted by some
mental disorder.
Bergerson was not a dangerous
character, but could neither read nor
write. He was a practical farmer, but
falsely claimed to be an American
citizen. He was arrested in Marsh-field.

isn't merely a Joy to the eye. She
is a comedienne with gray matter iu

in her speech and manner.
In this new piece, written by
Jerome Kern and Edgar Allen Woolf,
Mitzi la the bright and marning star

for Mitzi's songs are lovely,- and or
chestrated beautifully and smoothly.
Mitzi has developed a roundness of

Then she falls head over heels in

moment arrived as a drill master of

Edward Sells 'as Slgnor Bambinetti
