There are occasional moments when the dis torted face and : misshapen body seem too flagrantly imposed on the vision.

Half blind, with what little mind he had as out of shape as the body which carried it, the poor creature is scarcely to be considered as human, yet, in point of self-sacrifice, devotion and a gallant idealism, the hid eous figure is forgotten and the suffering which loyalty demand ed becomes the outstanding char acteristic of the actor's work. "Patsy Ruth Miller,' the little gypsy girl, and Norman Kerry, the young officer of the guard and favorite of King Louis XI, lend grace and charm to a film in which there is of necessity much that is "sordid. Raymond Hatton, Gladys Brockwell, Winifred Bry son, Nigel de Broiler as Dom Claude, and Brandon Hurst as Je han, are all excellent and Ernest Torrence as Clopin King of the Beggars has a role ot command ing import in many scenes. , "Director Wallace Worsley has achieved some unusual effects with his production, and in his handling of large masses of fig ures, and great architectural ef fects had really set a ; new pace for the silversheet. ., i. - . - j. f 4f . 1 . t . mmm P l M ' 2 SHOWS: . 7-9:15 P.

Whatever its ultimate etfect on the tangle of Russian politics, close students of Russian affairs here do not expect the death of Leniiio to result in any immediate radical changes in Russia or In the conduct of that country's foreign policy.

The American and Russian communist movements and official parties were linked together in testimony and documents submitted by state department officials today to the senate foreign relations sub-committee investigating the question of recommending American recog nition of the Russian soviet gov ernment. Through many documents ob tained by government agents, some in radical raids, A. W. Klie foth, assistant chief of the state department's eastern Enrope. di vision rind Robert F. Kelly of its intelligence office sought to prove that the American and Russian communists operated la close co operation and toward a common goal. The aim, according to some of the papers presented, was an "armed uprising" in this country designed to "destroy the bour geoisie government." Cablegrams in code from Rus sian officers of tho Third Inter- nationale to communist leaders in the United States were presented by the state department officials. One of these, sent from Moscow, jand said to order postponement of the workers party convention, scheduled for July, 1922, was translated. , - ' ISE, is beii son House Republican, Leaders Continue Efforts Reach Agreement oir Tax vtV ASHING TON.
