The Reqale

One of the very latest releases of the Universal company, "Enmeshed By Fate" a Victor two-reel drama, is to- days feature offering at the Regale theater, 210-212 East Washington street. Walter Miller and Irene Wal lace are seen in the lead roles. Miss Wallace will be remembered by Elks theater audiences as having appeared here a year or so ago in Traffic In Souls. MT Miller is acknowledged to be one of the best leading men on the American stage today. He is proving his wonderful versatility and sturdy personality by his latest work in Uni versal films. The leads in ''Enmeshed By Fate, are supported by an excellent cast. 'The Dawn of Romance" an Imp drama featuring Ethel Grandin. in one reel, well might be given lead posi- tion on any program. His Strenuous Honeymoon, Nestor comedy, is 8 fitting conclusion to this particularly strong bill.

 SOUNDED BY U. $,
Forcible Search of American Vessel Causes Announce
 ment in Senate.

Washington, October 17-Protest against a forcible search of the Amer ican merchant ship Metapan by the French cruiser Condo in Caribbean water was filed in the senate today by Senator Thomas. A letter was sub mitted by the senator from R. w. Pat terson, passenger on the Metapan. who said officers of the Condo forced five Germans on the vessel to sign parole agreements binding them not to fight against the allies in the Euro pean war.
 Senator Thomas statement caused Senator Stone, chairman of the for eign relations committee, to interrupt the proceedings of the senate with a warning to belligerent nations to re- spect the rights of the United States as neutral nation.
 "When we are performing our duty to maintain neutrality" said Senator Stone, "nations involved in war should be careful to recognize our rights and to keep fait hwith us.
 eff they fail to do so, then the re- sponsi5ility of violating the rights of neutral power WILL lCot upOH tHCi' heads. The government of the United States will maintain it's position, but it is well for other nations to know that we will not look with indifference nthe violations of the rights anC privileges of our own government or our own citizens.
 Much has been said concerning rights and privileges of belligerent ma tions. but less has been said about the rights of neutral powers and peo- pie subject to them. The government of the United States has voluntarily
 assumed an attitude of strict neu trality. That attitude was taken in good faith and every one connected
 with the administration of this gov
 crnment in any one of it's department: is enjoined to maintain that attitude We recognize and undertake to con cede and enforce the rights of bellig erent powers under international law
 but I thought it an opportune time t say that belligerent powers, if they care for the regard and friendship o this republic, should themselves rec ognize and strictly observe the right l of a neutral power"
