Is Surprised at
 Allies Warming
SAYS REPORT OF ESCAPE IS EN- TlRELY WITHOUT GROUNDS REPLY EXPRESSES SURPRISE AT WARNING ABOUT STRONG GUARD BEING MAINTAINED.

PARIS, July 1O.- (P) The council of five is in receipt of a very curt note from the government of Holland This note is in reply to d communi- cation from the council requesting information concerning the reported escape of the German ex-Crown prince. The reply states there is absolutely no foundation for the re- port, as the ex-prince is still within the boundaries of Holland.
 In their note to the Dutch govern ment the council warned Holland to maintain a strong guard around both members of the German royal family, as it is strongly believed they will make efforts to return to Germany. Hollands reply expresses surprise that the allies should see fit to give this warning, and it is intimated that the suggestions made will be disre- garded. Taken altogether, the note from Holland is by no means satis- factory to the council, as it is thOt it might easily have been more courte- Ous. The allies are looking to HOl- land to see that neither member of the HohenZOllern family escapes and re-enterS Germany.

Theatrical Men R0used BY

Enters Heated Defen &C Of Actresses and Actors

'veiled sweetness running through it,
something dainty that attracted and
satisfied the audience Without that
no play, much less a suggestive one,
ever can exist here"
zicgfeld Answers Wise
Florence Ziegfeld, jr, originator of the
"Folies," was another producer who
did not agree with Rabbi Wise's strict
ures. He called attention to previous
uterances Of the rabbi, at a time when
the stage was being used for patriotic
war service, to prove that his criticisms
were inconsistent
"When Rabbi Wise condemned the
theatrical profession generally, refer
ring to them as 'unediucated moral
scavengers,' he proved himself to be
either hypocrite, man who changes
his mind overnight, or man eager to
see his name in print" he said.
at would be we'll for Rabbi Wise,
considering his imputation against
women Of the theatrical profession, to
recall Sunday night about year ago,
when he led Miss Billie Burke out on
the platform of the Hippodrome, and
before thousands of people introduced
her in the most highly complimentary
terms. Miss Burke was speaking in be-
half Of the Permanent Blind Relief
Fund, and if the women of the profess
sion were what Rabbi Wise has called
them, he would scarcely have appeared
to introduce Miss Burke and laud her
fneness of character and her high
standing as a woman.
An absolutely unanswerable refuta-
/ ton of Rabbi Wise's reference to the
theatrical profession as 'uneducated
moral scavengers' is the record of the
Stage Women's War Relief-every one
a member of the theatrical profession
and subsstng by it, in their noble, un-
selfish and unccasing effort of relief
during the war.
"Another equally cogent answer is
the patriotic work of the entire theat-
rical profession both at the front and
at home.
Asks City to Act
an one breath Rabbi Wise de-
nounces "a stage filled with half dressed
women and then admits that they are
no more undressed than are the women
IN the boxes or IN hotel lobbes.
Rabbi Wise has no right to condemn
the entire theatrical profession be
cause there are a few Offenders. who
IN their vain attempt to copy others
giving artistic performances, resort. in
their ignorance, to unsavory and inde.
cent exhibitions.

in lower prices are pointing to declines
in the cost OF few raw materials like
cotton, wool and leather. They forget
that wearing apparel and other manu-
factured products before rea ching the
public, have gone through so many
hands and processes, all requiring la

cost is largely determined by the labor

IS Per Cent to Labor
eve should not forget that Is per

commodities consists of labor in some
form or other. The price Of labor cam
not come down in this country as long
as we have the present potential search

goods, high taxation, and world scarcity
of food.
From the standpoint of the COM
munity interests II makes very llttle
difference whether the basis of ex-
change is on high level or a low level
that is, whether prices computed in
money are high or low. The disad-
vantage to the community occurs in
changing levels from low prices tc
high prices or from nigh prices u low
prices, because complete change can.
not be made in all lines Of commodities
at exactly the same time. With chang
ing price levels large numbers OF
people are always placed in the
