BREED THEATRE.

Broken Blossoms, an absorbing dra- ma of love. pity and. death, was shown at the Breed theatre yesterdaytto to large and appreciative audiences..,a The pic- ture is taken from the story by Thomas Burke. The: Ghink and the Child, and dranlatized. by D. w, Grif- filth. The play reveals Lillian Gish in the role of the girl as a .tragedienne of extraordinary ability: The scenes are laid mainly in tie wiiarff section of London and partly in a large, Chinese port of entry and are done in a man ner of artistry unsurpassed in the film world. The story has caught all the lurking beauty in the brutal life on the London docks and of the loves and hates and swift. cunning vengeance of the Chinese who live it.
 Broken Blossoms will be show again today. Other pictures on the bill in- clude the Pathe News and, a very fun- ny two-part comedy entitled Beech Nuts

NEW YORK. April 2s.-Generally
speaking today's stock market gave
a very satisfactory account OF itself
transactions being on a large scale
and prices we'll maintained through
out the two hours session. The di-
rectors OF the Ohio Cities Gas Co.
declared a quarterly dividend Of
800 per share, but from the action
OF that stock this slight reduction in
dividend was probably expected. a
rally NJ three points occurred upon
the announcement being made.

tried to solve the problem by re-

If It fails, the natural recourse must
be had to an open market and sharp
competitive bidding, even at the sac
rifice of profits to-start the inciDent
movement, when prices may be ex-
pected again to strengthen and COM
fortably meet the legitimate costs Of
production, including present wage
scales.
The consensus of opinion among
business men is that prices should
be allowed to adapt themselves to
world conditions through the unin-
terrupted operation of supply and
demand. Given a break in the price
deadlock certainly it is true that
prosperity may be enjoyed at high
levels, providing all classes receive

TRADE CURRENTS

Reluctance OF domestic buyers to
pay existing high prices may be re-
flected in the foreign markets and
account for the slow growth of after
war trade so cheerfully anticipated
by most Americans.
Foreign stocks are low, il is point
ed out, not simply in belligerent, but
in neutral countries, For years inn
port buying has been subnormal.
And many nations obtain important
commodities almost wholly by i'm
port. Foreign merchants have paid
fancy prices for such goods as they
did purchase. Now they are waiting
for prices to fan. if the suggestion of
one authority may be taken at face
value. They await the competitive
low bidding of American firms. Like
domestic trade our foreign trade is
marking time, and for somewhat the
same reason.
The waiting attitude must termi-
nate. Exhaustion OF supplies will
compel buying, no matter what the
price, providing il is the best price
obtainable. Foreign buyers will cast
about in European countries for low
ar bids and probably discover that
Europeans have little to export and
then must meet costs of production
that more nearly match our own
than ever before.
The outcome may be identical at
home and abroad. Buyers will ac-
cept the prevailing levels tentative
~. Meantime American bankers and
export associations must remove the
second great obstacle by arranging
liberal credits. protected by foreign
securities
