O9bheunp Film
Process q Hit

r 9" To Judge by the enthusiasm Of
Monday evenings audience at the
opening Of My Four Years in Ger
many" dramahzed from Ambassa-
dor Gerard's book, the film is going
to be g. success. It was an enjoy
able experience to be at the Or
pheum for the opening, just to par
ttcipate in the patriotic demonstra-
ton il for no other reason.
A great deal Of skill is used in pre-
senting the episodes from Mr.. Ger
ards experience during his four
years as ambassador to Germany.
The real emotional appeal of the
piece comes after q scene in which
Mr.. Gerard gets his passports and
Won Jagow says sneeringly: well,
America won't fight anyhow" Then
g. number Of scenes telling OF Amer
ica's participation in the war are
shown as an answer to GermaLy's
sneer. The audience showed a high
pitch of enthusiasm. Men and
women clapped their hands until
they were sore and shouted until
their Threats were hoarse.
Patriotic numbers rendered by the
Liberty four during the program
proved a big hit with the audience.

AUSTRIANS MAKE
LITTLE PROGRESS
In new DRIVE ON
ITALIAN LINES

} London, June 18.-"After three days
, of attack the Austrian offensive has
not secured the detectives hoped for
on the first day." said Andrew Bonar
Law. in the house Of commons today.
He added that there was reason to
believe that the initiative for the
Austrian offensive had come from
Berlin.
Mr.. Bonar Law read extracts from
the minutes of the last supreme war
council, which was held at Versailles.
They stated that, thanks to the
prompt and cordial cooperation OF
America, it would be impossible for
the enemy to gain a victory by wear
ing down the allied reserves before
exhausting his own.
On the western front, after three
months of fighting, said Mr.. Bonar
Law, although the Allies have had to
give much ground, not one Of the
enemy's strategic points has been
attained.

Take Austria and the German game to
influence public opinion and Teutonize the
empire. When the war began the Aus
TRANS entertained the friendliest feeling
for the United States, which was height
ened by the outpouring of American aims
for the Austrian wounded and civilian pop
ulation. If the truth were really known
the Austrian, deep in his heart, loathes the
German and resents his overlordship. On
the Italian front more than one Austrian
prisoner expressed to me his great relief
at being captured, and welcomed escape
from what was termed 'servitude under
the German Kaiser
Just as soon as the Kaiser discovered
that the Austrian sentiment for America
was kindly his propagandists got busy.
Throughout the Austro-H Hungarian mon.
