MoOre's Strnnd-"The Kaiser, the
Beast of Berlin"

The most potent plea for the
oversubscription of the Third Lib
erty Loan that has yet been pre-
sented in the Capital is embodied
in the photoplay, The Kaiser. the
Beast of Berlin" which all day yes
terday kept Moore's strand Thea
ter packed with cheering crowds.
Most of the time that the crowds
were not cheering they were hiss
ing the unbridled cruelty. the in
ordinate fondness for personal
glory, the tyranny and the cow
ardice of the mad jaCkal of Europe.
The Kaiser. the Beast of Ber-
lin." is not a battle picture in the
usual sense, although the story re-
Quires an occasional introduction
OF military spectacle. but rather is
a faithful reproduction in cellu-
loid of the intimate side of the
Beasts activities in this war that
makes one feel that ne is indeed
being given a peep into the secret
workings of International intrigue
and wholesale murder. Much of
this tremendous force that the pic
ture eXerts is due to the remark
able INSTALLATION of the chief of
the Hohenzollerns by Rupert JUL
ian, under whose direction this su-
perb cinema study of the rotten
ness of kultur was made.
The first views revealed upon the
screen are wondrously beautiful,
depicting vividly the charm of life
in Belgium before the Hun cast his
shadow over the land. The town
of Louvain is shown. with the ro-
nance that comes to the pretty
i HI L. sF11tf IN
Then comes the curse of the inva-
sion and it's effect upon the happi-
ness of the family of Marcas, the
smithy. There are scenes of ten
derest pathos, others of terroriz-
ing brutality. and still others that
inspire the best patriotism that is
in one.
In addition to Mr.. Julian, i'm
portant parts are taken by Elmo
Lincoln, who makes the smithy one
of the towering figures in the de-
velopment of the plot; Ruth Cliff
ford, as his daughter. Gretchen
Lederer, and a host of other actors
| too many in number to catalogue.
The Kaiser, the Beast of Ber-
lin," is a picture that no true Amer
lean can afford to miss. 1t will
show accurately what America is
up against, why the Huns are fore
doomed to defeat. and, If those
considerations are not important,
will afford an hour or two of per-
feet photoplay entertainment. The
| usual short reel features complete
the program and Mr.. Breeskin has
| arranged a highly appropriate musi-
cal setting that adds much to the
effectiveness of the many reels.

LoeU's umbIa-Marguerite Clark

Loew's COIumbIa-Marguer Clark
Marguerite Clark in "Rich Man, Poor
Man was the feature photoplay at
Loew's Columbia yesterday. and will
remain the attraction until Thursday.
The leading role provides Miss Clark
with a part that particularly suits her
winning personality. The story has
been adapted by George Broadhurst
from the novel by Macmillan Foster.
Marguerite Clark is charming as
usual She plays in that winsome man-
ner that has made her one of the
most pOpular stars of the screen. She
is at all times natural and never
fails to register her scenes strongly.
Richard Barthelmess is satisfactory
as the leading man. He has nne
screen presence and proves himself
a most capable actor.
Frederick Ward is the polished ac-
tor that he always is, doing full jus
tice to the role of "Beeston" the mill
lionaire. Others that deserve mention
for their playing are Mary Davis,
George Backus and William Wads-
worth.
The Hearst-Pathe news and 4 COM
edy reel completes the program.

Sunday Theater
Openings
BelnscO-WiIIiam Collier in .Noth-
ing but the Truth"

ms
William Golfers recent visits to
Washington have been compara-
lively infrequcnt, and it may be
that good many of the new ar
rivals among our theatergoers are
unfamiliar with his quality as a
Iaughmaker. 1t is hard to account
otherwise for the number of vacant
seats. considering the present pros
perity of the local drama, at the
Belasco Theater last night on the
presentation of Nothing but the
Truth" farce which won high
popularity on Broadway last season.
rms play, made by James Mont
Eomery from a book by Frederick
lsham, is one of the brightest and
most enjoyable of recent comedies.
Mr.. Golfers quiet. human. likabIe
style of acting has seldom had a
better held, and he is assisted by a
company competent throughout
and brilliant in some instances.
Mr.. Collier is seen as Robert Ben
nett. worried member of n stock
broking firm, who is particularly
annoyed because his partners are
not at all particular about the
truth. They sell quantities of
stock in a quicksilver mine by rem
resentations that have but a vague
relation to reality. The truth-lov-
ing Bennett is SO vexed under the
chanlng of his partners that when
one of them offers to bet 10000
that Bennett cannot go twenty-four
hour without lying. he rashly COW
ers the wager. And that starts the
tun' which never let's up until the
twenty-four hours is over, when
Bennett, released from the terrible
strain of truthfulness. bursts into
medley of whoppers that lasts
till the final curtain.
Rapley Holmes as RaIston. the
grand liar of the firm, is an excel
lent support and foil to Mr., Col
llers portrayal. Roy Fairchild as
Clarence Van Dusen, a grouchy Gus
toner. contributes an excellent
character drawing. Arnold Lucy is
also good as Bishop Doran.
Miss Betty Wales is charming
and clever in the role of GwendoIyn
Ralston. daughter of the mendacious
partner and sweetheart of the We
raclous Bennett. Miss lone Bright
has a character role with a touch
OF eccentricity and gives it just the
right touch of lively humor.

"Chin-Chin" is as innocent of
plot as any well-conducted musical
comedy should be. but Rube Gold
berg would probably call 1t ancient
history in a modern frame, mas
much as II brings up to the pres
ent instant the very old story OF
Aaddin's wonderful lamp.
Doyle and Dixon are young men
who appreciate the terrific artistic
pace set them in "Chin-Chin" by
Montgomery and Stone. and they
conduct themselves as young men
who fully appreciate their respon-
sibilities.
Doyle feeds in the comedy and
Dixon peddles IL across to an au-
dience that howls with glee and
forces bow after bow in q fashion
that goes far to dim the glamour
that Montgomery and Stone put
about the piece.
Among the people TO watch for
in this production are the follow
ing:
A very diminutive person named
Marie Callahan (she's the size of a
tea-rose); another person named
Grace Walsh (she's Irish. tool:
five members of a clown band who
ought to be billboarded more prom
inently: a quartet of misses who
sing Goodbye. Girls, I'm Through"
and then, of course. Doyle and
Dixon.
There are four songs that are
already well known. but which add
luster to Ivan CaryIrs fame. They
are the aforementioned Goodbye.
Girls, I'm Through" and in addi-
tion, Temple Bells. Love Moon
and "A Chinese Honeymoon"
1t is likely that "Chin-Chin" will
bow this way at least once again
before it is laid away among the
lavender. but il is really unwise TO
take the chance.
"Chin-Chin' should be seen
now-and heard!

Alien Measure.

President Wilson's official procla-
nation issued April % and stating
that all transient alien enemy ~om-

strictly enforced according to au-
thorities in the police department
To Be Interned.
All women Of German birth or
citizenship and American women, who
have married alien enemies, will be
arrested and interned for the balance
of the war if it is found that they
had not registered prior to midnight
Sunday.
Women who are residing in the city

M they are not out of the restricted
area within the specified time limit,

have established permanent homes
here will be given until May to
leave.
Allen enemy men are already
barred from restricted zones through
out the country. and Department Of
Justice and police officials say that
Washington and all other restricted
districts are practically clear of
them. Many of the men who have
= been forced to leave their homes be-
cause they happened to be in the re-
stricted zones have left their wives
and children. while they went to pre-
pare a home for them elsewhere.
According to President Wilson's
proclamation these women will be
forced to leave the city. together

II is not known how many people
the latest order affects, but among
those who will be forced to go will
probably be a few hundred women
and girls of German birth or parent
age who are now working in govern
ment departments.
Names of Washington women who
will be forced to leave the city will
not be made public according to Of
fiCials in charge of the carrying out
of the order.
Checking the exodus of the women
affected by the proclamation will be
done by police and Department of
Justice officials Data collected in the
previous registration of alien enemy
men will probably be used to help
check the number of girls and women
who are leaving the city.
Where the women and girls who
have established a permanent resi-
denCe here will have to register is not
known as yet. but the Department
of Justice viii make details of the
registration public within few days.

1t might be an advan-
tage if the prices of meats
and live stock could be
stabilized. The packer
now has to cope with the
uncertainties of huctu-
ating prices of both cattle
and dressed beef in order
to getan average netprofit
of IA of a cent per pound.
But - elimination of
price fluctuations now
regulated by supply and
demand, involves many
difficulties:
Fresh meat is perish
able and must be sold
within a few days for
what it will bring.
When meat accumu-
lates, competition forces
prices down so as to make
stocks move.
When the supply is
short, competition forces
prices up, resulting in
even distribution of avail
able stocks.
Demand for meat varies with
industrial conditions, with sup
ply of ships for export, with the
seasons and weather changes,
and with supply of other foods.
1t varies irregularly in different
parts of the country; it varies
with respect to the different
qualities of meat, and the var
ious cuts.
The demand for by-products
also huctuates.
The supply ofive stock reach
ing the packing plants, as well
as its weight and quality, f1uc-
tuates from day to day, from
week to week, and from season
to season.
The price the packer pays
for live stock depends on all
these varying conditions.
Swift & Company will gladly
cooperate in the carrying out
of any national policy that will
tend to steady the prices of live
stock and meat.
