Diplomacy - Is
Drawing Card of
Little Theater

Marie Doro sets new standards in
her most recent screen triumph. "Di-
piomacy," In which she is starred
by the Famous Players Company, un-
der the Paramount Program. She will
be seen In this play at the Little to-
morrow. Tuesday and wednesday of
this week.
1t is nothing new to see Marie Doro
give wonderful performances. She
has built her reputation upon many
and varied historic accomplish
ment, hut before the camera she
has demonstrated her comprehension
of screen requirements In an emphatic
manner. incidentally, this Will be the
first time that Miss Doro has been
seen In the same company with her
husband, Elliott Dexter.
Diplomacy Ia no new play. A
generation ago the Sardou creation
attracted audiences. Just season ago
ii was revived in New York with
Blanche Bates and William Gillette
in the leads. IT speaks well for any
play that II can defy the ravages of
time and lose none OF it's original ap-
peal.
The story deals with the loss Of
certain state papers The diplomat
into whose care they have been in
trusted has married a girl about
whom he knows nothing regarding
her past Naturally he suspects her.
However. the real culprit, titled
woman. Is discovered through CO.
logne she uses. Thus the wife Is re-
lieved of suspicion and the bark of
love sails serene1y on. A very strong
cast has been supplied for Miss Doro's
support, while many of the scenes.
especially the exteriors Ind Interiors

tiful.

WHO WANTED WAR?

In Missouri Mr.. Hughes treated the

president has kept US sout Of war as
trifing matter. There was not the
slightest reason,'s he assured the gap
ling Republicans in front of him,
e.1Rhy anyone should get us into war.
You couldn't get this country into
war without making most inexcusable
blunders.
Mr. Hughes was addressing an

largely German-American.
The Philadelphia Record in com

war, we have no hesitation in assur-
ing him that practically all of his
party, except the German-Americans,
wanted to get US into war. and have
been denouncing Mr.. Wilson as a
coward because he did not get US

What expression of the Presidents

contempt? That sentence about being.

not put this country into the Euro

who are not Teutons, from Theodore

being "too proud to fight" What 90
they mean by that? If they mean
anything at all, except that they hate
Mr.. Wilson, they mean that the coun-
try ought to have engaged in the war,
and that it would have done so if Mr..
Wilson had not been coward. That
is precisely what Mr.. Hughes party
has been clamoring for a year and a
half, except, of course, the Teutonic
element, which is Safeguarding the
President for coming SO near to get
