Aliens Free In Both Countries.

Americans in Germany and Germans in
America Will be granted absolute freedom
to depart and every effort will be made
to remove all Americans possible from
that country. While unofficial reports
indicate there are 5000 Americans in Ger
many. the latest figures at the State De-
parrment show a smaller number, per-
haps a thousand less. OF these the great
ma jority are German Americans who
would prefer to remain in Germany in
any case. In Austria, 1t is estimated
there are not over 200 native Americans,
though there are several thousand nat
uraliZed Americans.
Funds will be provided before the
American embassy leaves Berlin for the
relief Of destitute Americans in Germany.
This money will be placed in the hands
of the Spanish ambassador, together with
the other interests he has taken over
American passports to Germany will not
hereafter be issued. The citizenship bu-
reau yesterday SO announced as the only
change in the passport regulations be-
yond those made early in the week to
increase the difficulty Of impostors and
spies in their efforts to procure Ameri-
can travel credentials.

 Having danced themselves to fame in the capitols of Europe, South America and the United States, the internationally celebrated Maurice and Florence Walton add another dis tinctive triumph to their great series of artistic accomplishments in their photoplav debut in "rhe Quest of Life" It was Maurice who introduced the Argentine Tango to Europe and America after he had studied in South America The celebrated Apache Dance, which is reproduced in The Quest of Life,'' was also created by Maurice after he had seen it's crude performance in the Apache Dance of Paris. The Quest of Life" however is more than merely a dancing picture It contains big dramatic moments and 1 tells a forceful story of the struggles of an ambitious girl of lowly parent age, whose life's path crosses that of the celebrated danger. Maurice Breton from which is developed a little trae- edy, a great deal of romance, and in the end, happiness.
