At the Strand.

"War Brides" a story teeming with
tragedy, and especially timely in, the
days of the present desperate struggle
in Europe, opened a four days en-
gagement at the Strand Christmas to
good-sized audiences. The picture
features Nine. Nazimova, who acted
the principal part in the play when it
was presented in vaudeville a few
years ago. The story itself was writ
ten by Marian Craig Wentworth, who
appeared here before the Twentieth
Century Club, and has been adapted
for motion pictures by Herbert Bren-
non.
Briefly stated "War Brides is in

womanhood against bearing male chill

"red lines of death" and be ruthlessly
shot down in a war controlled n
directed by despots. There is a tre-
mendous lesson in the play, and in
spite of the tragedy the spectator is
held and fascinated all the way thru.
In order to bring home the lesson a
home forms the basis of the story.

VAR and Warmer" Full OF Fun, and
Pieases Holiday Audience.
IA large holiday audience greeted
Fair and Warmer Avery Hopwood's
farce, at the Odeon Christmas night,
and gave the piece a hearty welcome.
Like most farces there is more or
less dialog that carries a double mean
ing as far as the words themselves GO,
and there are situations that, unless
they are well acted, are inclined
toward suggestiveness. Happily Fair
and Warmer gets by because it is
presented by good people, and because
Of the nature II the characters por-
traying innocence personiied. Dorothy
Mackaye. as the first trusting and then
doubling wife, gives her hearers the
impression that she is just a in
nocent as the character she is pre-
senting, and it would be hard to take
offense at n word Of action. The
same is true OF Ernest Cossert's Billy"
Bartlett.
The situations afforded in the case
of MISUNDERSTANDING between the
Bartletts and Wheelers are truly
funny. Again. such situations, while
not likely, are within the of pos
sibilities.

ditional revenue to meet extraordinary
expenses. But its adoption should
eventually open the way to far-reach-
ing social reforms which every decade
are rendering more imperative. Once
the principle of heavily taxing I'M
earned fortunes as established as a
feature of our government system, it
will inevitably be utilized, sooner or
later, in the necessary work Of curb
ing top-heavy fortunes.
A few years ago the person who
spoke of the menace of the concentra-
ton of wealth In a few hands was
looked upon as an anarchist. Expert
ence is proving, however, that such
concentration is not only limiting OPP
portunity both to the worker and the
lesser capitalist, but creating feeling
OF unrest which is anything but health
full in a democracy. We are learning
that money makes money with mo-
mentum that increases according to
the size Of the pile, and that poverty
begets poverty with increasing acute
ness as this growth Of moneys power
is accelerated.
A tax on inheritances, with the ratio
of taxation augmented according to the
size of the inheritance, would be po-
tent factor in relieving the nation of
the menace Of those huge cumulative
fortunes which extend their power
over the commercial and industrial
world with each generation.

FOOD IN WAR TIMES.

The big suburban city OF Lichten-
berg, a few miles from Berlin, whose
population is almost exclusively drawn
from the working classes, has, dur
ing the past few months, been per
fecting a system of municipal owner
ship of foodstuffs which is perhaps the
most comprehensive in Germany It
has not only taken charge of and con-
trol over certain kinds Of foods, as
other municipalities have done, but it
mas become salesman as well, has
opened municipal stores and markets
all over the city, has done much to
keep prices down within the reach of
its inhabitants, and yet has made
enough profit to enable TO keep its
stocks replenished. Where it has been
found inadvisable for the city to sell
the food itself, it has been distributed
through merchants who have been per-
mitted TO charge only stipulated prices
and to make profit no larger than
the city itself would make
The city now maintains four stores
for the sale of meat, sausage, fats and
bacon, four egg stores and two potato
stores. Four more Of the latter are to
be added ina short time, as soon as
the expected increased demand for po-
tatoes comes. The city has been able
to make advantageous contracts with
packers for both meat and fats, and of
late is selling daily to about 10000
families. Whenever a shortage has
been felt, such as was the case with
fat recently, Lichtenberg has procured
substitutes Of one kind or another. II
has in its stOrehOuses now enough ba-
con to last into February, and by that
time Will have received the 5000 hogs
that have been apportioned to it by
military authorities A contract tc
slaughter them has already beer
awarded.
OF late the city has added to It'll
stock by putting in rice, beans, peas
and oat fakes by the hundred-weigh
and is selling them at a small margin
of profit at its meat stores. Until after
Christmas the price of municipal egg:
was cents apiece-as compared witt
TO 8 cents in other parts O
Berlin-but now it has advanced t.
Az cents.
The city has Just purchased an enor
nous quantity Of potatoes, half o
which it has stored away, and thu
ether half Of which has been distrib
uted among the regular provision deal
ers to be sold at specified prices. TIL
city has also sold huge amounts 0

THE NEW CABINET VACANCY

With the abrupt withdrawal of Sec
rotary Of War Garrison from the cab
met, taken into consideration with the
resignation Of Secretary of State Bryan
last summer, President Wilson has
parted with the representatives of the
two extremes In his official family.
Bryan was the great pacifcist. He
stood for peace at all hazards, not to
say at any cost. Garrison on the other
hand is staunch advocate of extreme
militarism, and an opponent of gov
eminent manufacture of munitions of
war. He is the father of the contin-
entail army scheme in connection with
| the administration program of pre-
paredness. While President Wilson
tentatively gave his approval to this
! feature, he made it plain from the out
set that his position on this particu-
| lar feature was subject to revision
When he got out among the people and
found how strongly they opposed and
would positively reject anything thai
smacked SO of European militarism as
the continental army plan, certainly
the president did revise his opinion
For he is man Of the people.
| The fact that the president had
changed his attitude, together with the
stand that congress had taken on tbs
subject, coupled with the success be
fore congress of the presidents OWL
bill for Filipino independence, tc
which the secretary would not give his
approval, led to his resignation.
The president promptly accepted the
resignation of his war minister not.
withstanding that he has been regard
ed as one of the executives closes
personal friends in the cabinet, com
ing as he does from Wilson's owl
state
Among those talked of for the cab
met vacancy is Henry NJ Pindell. tn,
Peoria editor. Mr.. Pindell is one o
the original Wilson men in the state
He is leading party member, and il
a staunch advocate OF government
manufacture, and his paper is one 0
those which has backed Congressman
Tayenner's campaign on this subjec
to the limit.
