Theatrical Men Urge
Closing on Tuesday
Instead of Monday
Committee OF to Confer With
Wilson on the Fuel
Situation

4 committee of New York theatrical
managers left New York last night to
70 to Washington. whore they will CON
fer day with President Wilson CON
cerning the order that their theatres
must close 'on Mondays. They will
be named for The closing Of theatres.
The reason for this plea is, accord
ing to the managers, the fact that per-
sons who are not Vt work on Mondays
will be more ready to go TO the theatre
on that day than on any other. They
also point out that Il saving of fuel will
be effected ii persons spend in the
theatres time that they would spend
using fuel and light in their own
homes.
The managers who left for Wash
ington include George NJ. Cohan, David
beasco, Lee S. Shubert. Mare Klaw,
Sam II. Harris, Joseph Rhinock, f. f.
A!bec and Adolph Zukor.
Following are the opinions Of thcatr
cal men regarding the order:
ARCHIBALD sELWYN, vice-pres,-
dent oT Selwyn 4 Co.: 81 haven't had
time to try and figure out what the or
der means in dollars and cents. The
chief thing is. if it will help out in the
present situation, we'll enough and
good | hope it will.
81 don't know what it means in saw
lEg OF coal for any theatre where sue
cess is playing. II will mean, however,
loss OF about $50 a night to the gov
ernment IN taxes. AS | say, however.
II the coal saved viii! help, | am not
n rIoi, >,
SAMUEL l.. ROTHAPEEL, Manager
Of the Rialto and Rivoli Theatres:
II am complying very gladly with the
governments order, although it means
loss to the Two houses of $4,000.
There Will be d meeting of the board
Of directors of the operating company
to determine whether it will be neces
sary to cut the salaries of the oper-
atlng STATS"
GEORGE NJ. COHAN: 81 cannot be-
lleve that the order will stand. If it
does, it will work terrible hardships
upon the people of the theatres-not
the managers so much as the thou-
sands of employees. | don't think that
Mr.. Garfield could have discussed this
with President Wilson before it was WAS
issued. If so, don't think he would
have given us a nearing.'
LEE SHUBERT: eve hope Dr.. Gar
fields order can be changed. 1t is a
terrible blow to the show business
But if the President indorses it we vii!
have to stand by it. The loss in money
VIII be great and the entire machinery
OF the show business throughout the
country will be upset"

American Military ExneI

Famous American "IIIIdTy eNPS't.
Victory is probable in 1918 only if
the German people realize that the
war has reached the point where leu
tonic man-power is disappearing from
the world at greater proportionate
rate than the man-power of any other
belligerent.
1t is too much to expect that events
will so develop in 1918 as to permit
the allies to deliver knockout blow
resulting in the unconditional surrend-
er of the German armies.
But, 1918 will see British, French,
Italian and American troops all en-
gagged in the business of killing Ger
mans.
Germany, in her turn will also KILL
but WITH THE ODDS TERRIBLY
AGAINST HER.
The most important event of the
war in 1918 may be the raising of
the American flag over the River
Rhine. ...
Somewhere along the Rhine, prob
ably between the Swiss border, where
the Rhine rises, and the vicinity of
Strassburg, Is miles north, the first
American objective of the war is pre-.
sumed to be concealed. During the
course of the new year this conceal
ment will be ripped wide open by a
million American fighters.
Won Hindenburg and the kaiser
know what is coming, so far as the
general Erection of the American adj
vance is concerned, but they don't
know the point of contact with the
Rhine. They will be kept guessing
along their historic waterfront until
the blow falls.
When it loes fall, the most import.
ant happening of the war, and one OF
the most vital developments in the his
tory of civilization will have occurred.
The Rhine will have been cap
tured by the first army from the
western hemisphere to engage in
al, offensive military campaign in
Europe.
The problem of crossing the Rhine
was considered from every angle OF
possibility early in the war by British
and French army engineers. 1t will
fall, however, to engineers from West
Point to direct the solution in 1918,
il the problem is to be solved at all.
This question of military engineering
skill will come as the climax to a
drive through German TERRITORY, that
will test American generalship to its
utmost.
The starting point of the drive will
be revealed in the spring or summer,
when the American offensive begins.
General Pershing is preparing to
hold the southernmost part OF the
western battlefront.
1t is a stretch of at least 100 miles,
as the trenches turn and twist, from
one end of this line to the other. The
extreme southern part of the line is
inside Alsace and is about Is miles
from the Rhine; the northern part is
50 miles away. The distances between
vary.
It would seem logical that the near
Or to the Rhine the American assault
begins, the quicker will the OBJECTIVE
he reached. But the lines of com
munication leading to the battlefront

American and the British will prob
ably not play strongly offensive 1ole
in the 1918 fighting, except as sup
ports of the combats on the two eX-
tremes of the western front. France
has borne a more exhausting part of
the warfare during the past hree and
one-half years than has England and
France has earned the right to rest
until her help is urgently needed.
Enough ought to be expected of Rus
STA, as to uncertainty, during 1913, to
keep a considerable force of Germans
watchful along the eastern front.
