risings of a discontented ; people
with striking contrast.' r '
"L'on Chanejr, in the name role,
is naturally,' the. outstanding fig
ure, and in many scenes he makes
this half buffon, half hero, a fig
ure of tremendous art. . There are
occasional moments when the dis
torted face and : misshapen body
seem too flagrantly imposed on
the vision. But in "other scenes
the actor, handles; most ".difficult
situations with a restraint which
is" admirable, and in . the' latter
reels of the film hla "Interpreta
tion of . the . role is deservipg ot
high prai3e. 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.

Washington Officials Feel
That No Radical Change

WASHINGTON. Jan. 22. ( By

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.

has been at the head of the Rus
sian revoultionary movements
since its inception has served to

Actual control, both of the po

hands of a triumvirate, headed by
Kameneff, vice president both of
the soviet people's conimissiars

WASHINGTON", Jan. 22. 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
