The allied delegates also were said
to be considering the ACCESSIBILITY of
coming to an understanding with the
Russian soviet government and per-
hitting it to get food and materials.

1t is granted his government can make
good. and then the allies can recognize
it If they wish to. He declares he is

PrOdded by the public opinion OF
most of the world, and particularly by
the insistence of President Wilson,
the peace delegates in Paris speeded
up their work last week and really ac-
complished something. Mr.. Wilson, 1t
was reliably reported, told them that
II results were not Forthcoming soon

causes of the delay, and just before
that he issued a statement denying
that the discussions over the league
Of nations were to blame in that re-
spect. No n nation, said Mr.. Will
son. was solely to be blamed for hold
ing up the peace treaty, hut dispatches
from Paris make it fairly clear that
many of the bitches have been due to
the disparity between what the French
demand and what the Americans,
sometimes backed by the British, are
| willing to impose on the conquered
| Germans.
II present indications go for any
thing, those same beaten Huns are
going to come out of the peace con-
ference in fairly good shape. The big
Four last week concerned themselves
mainly with the major questions of
PREPARATION, the west bank of the
Rhine. Danzig and the Italian frontier.
Unofficially, Germany has been taking
part in the conference, and its argu-
ments, presented by public officials,
the national assembly and the press,
seem to be having decided effect.
Though France still asserts that the
Huns should be required to pay the
last penny that can be got out of
them, and in this are supported by the
public opinion of most of the civilized
world, the peace delegates, influenced
| apparently by the American represen-
t~atives, have been scaling down the
amount of indemnity more and more
until the prediction now is that 1t will
be less than $4,000. 10000 How

LYMAN III. HOWE AMERICAS
FIRST MOTION PICTURE
EXHIBITOR

Lyman II. Howe, whose newest
travel festival. comes to the Oliver
theater on Feb. 21 for a three day
engagement. lays claim TO the dis
tinction of being Americas first ex-
hibitor.
Mr.. Howe first became interested
in motion pictures when Thomas A.
Edison's primitive kaleidoscope was
exhibited at the Chicago exposition
In 1884, he took his first travel festi-
val on tour. AT that time even the
crudest form OF motion picture the
alter had not yet appeared. When
Mr.. Howe started, the average
length Of a picture was between Is
and so feet, running but a few sec
onds. The pictures. in the main.
were primitive travel scenes. as
glimpses OF waves beating on sea-
coast rocks and OF foreign streets.
A long step. indeed. from the Howe
entertainment OF the present. when
the travel festival takes audiences
upon extended tours OF a whole
land. Since Mr.. Howe blazed the
way for the motion picture screen
theaters have appeared by the thou
sands until today over 1900 film
houses are scattered about the coun-
try. Yet. through the years. Mr.
Howe has maintained a place all
