But and Rebut
By Haywood Broun

From Somewhere in the United
States" comes the following letter from
an American army officer concerning
"Hearts of the WORLD:
Permit me to thank you for the few
remarks you made in your column few
days ago regarding Hearts of the
World Despite the cheap brand of
publicity used in connection with this
production-no doubt you recall the
trash inserted in the dailies by Messrs.
Comstock and Gest, in which they gra-
ciously rendered Mr.. Griffith's conde-
scending thanks to New York for think
ing we'll Of his supreme triumph and
tearfully begged the public to call a
policeman If speculator dared to so
much as look at them--despite this, /
repeat, bought ticket (from the box
office) and attended.
"Now, sir, I am an officer in the
United States army, and I am fully
cognizant Of the fact that we are not
going to lick the Germans by any pink
tea methods, but at the same time l
wish to raise my voice in protest
against the unnecessarily revolving
scenes that Mr.. Griffith has allowed to
mar his otherwise perfect example of
cinematography. Pictures of that sort
are the worst sort Of thing for home
morale-and that is just as important
as front line morale. Can you imagine
how the girls we leave behind are GO
ing to feel If some adverse fate leads
them to the Forty-fourth Street Thea
tire ARE our mothers going to come
away remembering the love scenes or
the bit of film, no doubt referred to as
'zippy' by the producers, in which a
bayonet is the means Of causing a
fountain of blood to squirt from mans
body? Concerning tho Germans froth-
ing at tho mouth, or his charmingly
frank invitation to the girl to come and
be seduced on the floor, your remarks
were SO much to the point that further
comment is useless.
Il imagine that very nearly every
soldier In and around New York has
seen this film, and every one have
heard discuss it has made substantially
the same comment-~that it's wonder

cutting of the CHASTITY CLOSE ups would
improve it and it's reputation. Not
that 1t affects the men in service. but

The soldier in question wasn't so
much interested in the liquor problem
as he was in letting every one within
matter like coming to France was sim
ply an everyday occurrence to him.
The remark of an American artillery
lieutenant months later showed q
somewhat similar spirit. He was the
commander of the battery which had
fired the first shot at the Germans, and
some newspaper men were asking him
to describe the incident what did
you say?" one of the correspondents
asked.
81 gave 'em the range" answered the
lieutenant, "and then / said Ready to
fret and then Fire."
"Was that all there was to it 2" asked
the somewhat disappointed newspaper
man.
what would you expect me to do,
make speech?" replied the officer.
1t may be that the public of the
theatre expects the characters in
khaki to make speeches. More pos
sibly the author allows his characters
to do SO because that is an easy way
to write play. In the late american
Ace" the playwright tried to make
every third line bid for applause.
During che early portions Of the play
he got much of this applause for
which he tried, but later on folk just
$ho
of the stage as medium of patriotic
propaganda will soon be entirely lost
IL playwrights do not refrain from
hammering their points home so hard.
American soldiers in France are
neither contentious bores nor brag-
CARTS, and there isn't reason in the
world why they should be SO repre-
sented on the stage.
The war propaganda Of the screen
Is not always Of the most stimulating
sort, either. After viewing one popu-
lar film, we came away from the thea
tire with q confused idea that our chief
grievance against Germany lay in the
fact that the Kaiser had been rude
to Mr.. Gerard.
In direct ratio as the war comes
nearer our plays become more friv-
olous. II play is not about the war
II must be about nothing. Somewhere
in France" or Somewhere in April''
are the only alternatives open to the
playwright. Nobody cares now for anv
problem except that of the war. Only
rarely does the author who turns his
back upon the war succeed in turning
out a hrst rate play. Belinda" for
instance, is rather amusing, but there
Is no getting away from the fact that
mere lightness cannot make people for

Mr.. Metcalfe, of "Life," thinks that
we Americans are tolerant "in the mat
ter of speech on our STAGE" He cites
"a Dolls House," and writes: at is
difficult TO picture a French audience
approving a cast with the delivery, in
the same play, of the French lines so
remote from the French accent as the
contrasting Bolshevik English of Nine.
Nazimova and the British-English of
Mr.. Atwill are from purely spoken
English, even from the not at all bad
American-English of Messrs. Probert
and Young"
Perhaps one of the reasons for our
tolerance is the fact that our ears
are not so accurately tuned as those
OF the French. Mr.. Metcalfe, for in
stance, speaks of "the American Eng
lish" of Roland Young, in spite of the
fact that Mr.. Young is an Englishman
with considerable training on the Eng
lish stage and a marked English accent
which has hardly been touched by
some six years of playing in this coun-
