Thursday, February 13, 1930 The Drama Returns T TAVING robbed the theatre going public of the legiti- mate drama, it was up to the modes to return that form of entertainment to the stage. The advent of the "talkies" has made this possible and as time goes on there is a possibility that the masses will be able to see the masterpieces of the stage a thing impossible to the average town and small city in times past. The appearance of George Arliss in Disraeli at a local theatre this week carries one back to those golden stage days of Jefferson and Sothern, when strong char acterization and clear diction were the actor's greatest attributes. The drama was rapidly starving to death until the vitaphone was perfected, for there was but a small percentage of the theatre goers who would pay the difference in price even if the spoken drama was their preference. But now one may see the greatest actors of the age in stupendous productions that were wholly impossible in the old days of the legitimate and the cost for the whole family is no more than the price of a single admission formerly. It is just possible that the new movies may educate a greater number of people to the finer arts than their predecessor, the legitimate stage, ever dreamed of. One by one the galaxy of stage stars has succumbed to the lure of the movie meal ticket and having employed them, the producers will have to provide the class of plays that Best suit them- Thus we have Arliss in Dis raeli and it is doubtful if he appeared to better advant age before he entered the movies. In fact, it should be better for the camera is an exacting critic and the vita phone records every sound faithfully. Disraeli has had a good reception here and the theatre management should be encouraged to book more of these classic. j TIMELY QUOTATIONS FROM PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC EYE "I hope nobody will vote for me simply because I am a worn is or vote against me solely because I am a woman."

When he resigned his justiceship, in 1916, Europe was at war and this nation was at peace and expected to remain so. Herbert Hoover was feeding Belgians, Al Smith was a New York politician and Calvin Coolidge was climbing the ladder in Massachusetts. Prohibition looked like an impractical dream, ownership of an auto mobile meant that a man was fairly well-to-do and the British navy was as large as any two others combined. It was, in short, an utterly different world when Hughes last sat in the supreme court a world that seems as far removed, now, as the era of the Civil war. But it was only 14 years ago. If Mr. Hughes return to the bench sets his memory working, he will have plenty to think about. Wild oats seem to sprout earlier if a little corn is put down first. The very rich make friends with celebrities because they enjoy meeting somebody who doesn't want anything. That la putting It mildly. Our ridiculous shilly-shallying has been going on these seven years. We hare been uncertain, coy and hard to please. Charles al. Hnghee seea the world court as the absolute minimum of Intelli gent effort for the promotion ot world peace.' The senate seen It aa part bogey and part political straw man. Three years ago the senate ex pressed Its horrid fears In a res ervation about advisory opinions. Ellhu Root figured out a way to get around that. The scheme hss been put in a protocol, and fifty ot the fifty-four nations who are members of the court have gone to the considerable trouble ot adopting It, Just to humor ' Secretary Stimson says that this will "fully protect the United States againat tha dangers antici pated." President Hoover hopes that we will "take our proper place In a movement so funda mental to the progress of peace." John W. Davis, Thomsa Lamont, Silas Straw, Colonel House, Gen. Harbord, Dean Pound, Brand Wbltlock the roll of tho who urge ua to action Is long and Im pressive. Impressive, that Is, to every body eicept to senators who. ad mire themselves In that good old political callsthenlc eiercise waving the tattered and faded banner of American isolation.

EDITORIALS From Over the Nation THE END OP Alt ERA Kansas City Times: Two of the lat imperial German chancellors have died now within a few Weeks of each other. But Prince Von Buelow and Prince Max of Baden held office under very dif ferent clrcumstancea. The first was chancellor for nine years while the kaiser sat (Irmly on his throne and the Imperial for tunes moved steadily toward their lenllh. The second served for lesa than-- month, while tba kaiser scurried from that same throne and the imperial regime collapsed under military defeat. Fat called Prince Max to play n Ignominious role. He was ap pointed at the very end ot the war, when L-udendorff was shout ing for an armistice and the military clique at army head Quarters In a kind of panlo had abdicated tba control they had exercised tor tba last four years. He thought he might be able to save something from the wreck age by organising a government with a broad parliamentary basis nd urging the country to a united effort which might at laaat win more favorable terms ot peace. But events frustrated the chancellor's plan. With great boldness but in credible stupidity the admiralty on its own authority :.cided to send the grand fleet out on a last "death-ride." Mutiny prompt ly broke out at Kiel and revo lution spread throughout the na tion. Gone was all hope for a constitutional monarchy. The kaiser prepared to flee. And on Nov. 9, 1918, the leaders of the Socialist parly informed Prince Max that the German people pro posed to assume all power. The chancellor notified tbem of the kaiser's abllcation and resigned. He had tried to act as a stop-gap, but the floods of reaction against the old regime were too strong tor him. T -l HAVE A CtXT CWll .i . 1 . .1 I i?

BY KODNKY lU'TCHKR XKA rlorvltw Writer WASHINGTON, Tell. lS-There Is something In the Bible about motea aud beama In people's eye and someone hsd better get Senator Kenneth Mi'Kellar off lu a corner and read It to him be fore Ihe aenator makes any fur ther attempt to demonstrate that Albion Is still perfidious. It may be, as McKellar says that Great Britain's canceling ot two new cruisers la ao much mis leading "balderdash" and "clap trap" despite lla Interpretation aa a pleasant gesture on Premier Ramsay MacDonald's part durlnt the naval arms limitation confer ence. If so and those be burnt words we two countries would appear lo be about even. For It may be recalled that President Hoover once undertook to maka a cruiser gesture himself. MeKrllar'a Hiory But first to hear Senator Mc- Kellsr's story. He read to the Senste a die patch from London citing the announcement that construction of two of the newest Ilrltlsb cruisers had been canrelod. These were the cruisers Surrey and Northumberland, the dispatch Id. on which MacDonald had suspended work shortly before his visit to the United Ststes last year. I think that the American people thought work had begun on tbem and that Prim Minist er MacDonald had directed thst ths work stop." McKellar said. 'In other words the prime min ister said work would be discon tinued. When It wss resumed we do not know. Now the Brit ish admiralty ears work on these two ships Is "going to he discon tinued sgaln. . . Work on these two ships has never actually been stsrted. Yet Prime Minister MsrDonsld stopped Ihe work on them when he came here last fall and now the British admir alty. It has said, hsa stopped work on these ships again, and. at ths same time, tt appears that work has never been stsrted on either ot them." McKellar was sure Senators Robinson and Reed, delegatea to London, wouldn't be misled by such bslderditMh and claptrap Senator Fesa 01 Ohio aald there waa a difference between can cellation and auspenslon of work, bnt he admitted himself "start led" when McKellar read from the dispatch that "work on th ships never hsd actually been started." "What are they doing to us" McKellar demanded. "What do they take ns for?" Well, it would appear that the British first sunpended construc tion and then canceled the two authorised cruisers altogether. Investigation reveals that tber bad been no keels laid, that pre liminary steps In cruiser-making mi el f I he delicious, flovory cup that always please TREE TEA which naval men commonly elaas undor the head of "construction," were suspended before MacDon ald came here and that now tin two ships hav been abandoned altogether. Our Own Case Now consider our own case: Doubtless many Americans atlll have the Impression that we sus pended construction on three cruisers pending the London con ference. Mr. Hoover, on July 21. aa a gesture ot good will, said aomethlng which led to that belief. II said there were three rruUers In this year'a (the fiscal year beginning July 1) construc tion program which had been un. dertaken In government navy yards, detailed drawings for which were In the course of pre paration. 'The actual keels would. In the ordinary course, be laid down soma lime this fall , , wo shall not Isy down these keeli until tnere nas been an oppor tunity for full consideration of their effect upon the final agree ment for parity which we eipeel to reach." But the White House Issued nu orders for suspension. The Navy Department didn't change Us plans. These three cruisers were lo be undertaken in the year be ginning July I and one learns at the Navy's Bureau of Construc tion and Repair that It always takes from eight to 12 months before keels are laid, making February the earliest time when keel-laying might begin. Neither has keel-laying begun on th two crullers undertaken by private yards at th sam lime. Th oth er preliminary work Is under way.
