 Sessue Hayakawa, the well-known star of "The Bottle Imp" Alien Souls" and other productions is the star of the production and he has been able to lend to the character of Togo all the charm and humor of his great genius.

,dence to prove the need of opening
the doors of the old Turkish empire

irrigation ditching Is used today In
northern Mesopotamia. The men do
not even s first-class shoyels. The
British have introduced many new
agricultural implements. but most OF
the work done In the fertile plains Of
Mesopotamia is typical Of the days Of

That rich region. as well as many

 One of the leading authorities of this city asserts that if the industries af Europe are restored and modernixed and If the great progress for the next twenty-five years is sinulRr to the rate of progress between 1890 and the be- ginning of the European war then the great debts which Europe owes will be very rapidly reduced European nations will be able to pay their debts to the United States and never miss the wealth if they can have time to build up their productive organizations
 The same authority asserts that the oeots which Europe owes the American Government will gradually be absorbed by private investors of this country 1T they are these securities will stand somewhat Tn the relation of the British consul. These represent the funded aeot Of Great Britain. They have been fayorite form of investment since the yearly income from them is absolutely certain.

 OUR FOREIGN COMMERCE
 Tn the important address which was delivered by James $. Alexander who IT president of the National Bank of Commerce, in New York, and who was selected as chairman of the committee on credits and finance of the Interna tlonal Trade Conference now in session at Atlantic City he called attention 10 the Tact that since the armistice was signed our average exports balance has aggregated about four hundred million aolIars month. Furthermore our ex- ports nave greatly changed in char acter since the war began. Before 1914 We sold to Europe chiefly crude food stutfs and raw materials Today we are selling to Europe food stuffs not crude, but partially or wholly manu factured and finished manufactures. That means that we are sending to europe commodities needed for imme- dlate consumption. Mir Alexander is or the opinion that our international trade Is abnormal. It is too favorable 10 lhe united States and too adverse to Europe. He believes that this can be overcome first through the cessation Of the United States government loans 10 Europe and instead such financial aid as is needed should be supplied by private initiative. The time has come 10 turn away from outright govern ment Financing of international com merce and to resume once more course of private enterprise and initia- tiVe MT. Alexander. who should know as well as any man in this country told the delegates to the conference that practically reasures are now we'll ad- Vanced to facilitate and expedite these new measures but that no comprehen- sive plans can be definitely formulated until the treaty of peace is signed.
