Comptroller Williams
Welcomes Investigation

Washington. Feb. 16.-Comptrol-
Ter ]. S. Williams Of the treasury, in
a statement telegraphed from Rich
mond, Va, said he would welcome
the investigation proposed in the
resolution introduced in the house
today by Representative McFadden
of Pennsylvania for appointment of
a special committee to inquire into
the official conduct of Williams.
THE rumors of which Mr.. Nc
Faddan spoke are new to me-" said
Mr.. Williams. Since they have
been put before the public by him,
the sooner and more< thoroughly
they are probed to the bottom and
traced to their respective origins,
the better l shall be pleased. It is
entirely possible that Mr.. McFad-
den, for reasons known to himself,
will not be so well pleased with the
results as I will be, but I challenge
him distinctly to proceed"

TRADE BOYCOTT
PEACE MEASURE
OF AMERICANS
Armed Force May Be Replaced
by Economic Principles
in Enforcing DEGREES of
League Of Nations.

Washington, Feb. l6.-American
financial and trade representatives
now in Europe have devised exten-
sive plans for using the economic
boycott as a weapon against nations
failing to abide by DEGREES OF the
proposed league of nations Accord
ing TO official information here today
they will urge upon the peace con-
ference measures making possible
close International cooperation in
the application OF economic princi-
piles to replace use of armed force
to great extent,
No specific machinery for putting
into effect measures of economic
boycott, pending further develop
ment OF the plan for league of ma
tons.
Officials of the Treasury, Depart
ment OF Commerce and War Trade
board familiar with the plans of the
American representatives at Paris
said an international trade commits
sion to investigate unfair trade prac-
tees, which might easily develop
into international dispute and war, as
we'll as to set into motion the eco
nomical forces against nations trans
crossing international agreements
may be named, ...
Under American plan the manip.
ulation Of the supply of raw ma
terials and of the purchase of man
ufactured products and of financial
arrangements between countries
would be the principal means OF
effecting a boycott If these mea-
sures could be made thoroughly ef-
fective American representatives be-
lieve they would often eliminate
the necessity of using armed force
Officials said the American plan
would necessitate continued co.
operation between the government
and business in this country.

alone makes the picture an extrava-
giant play without the fine acting of
Miss Bara in the leading role. The
Interpretation of the story of Her
cd and Salome has been with a view
of casting into the picture a real
ism of the power held by the frail
girl over the mind of the powerful
monarch.
Mae Marsh appearing in THE
Bondage of Barbara" at the Muse
Showing again today and Tuesday,
has a stirring melodramatic story,
new style for this actress. As
Barbara Grey she assumes the re-
sponsibility of bank robbery which
Tony, her brother, is suspected.
The real thief, Jack Newton, son of
wealthy lumber king, makes
dupe of Tony, and, when the lat
ter returns to clear his sister and
expose Newton he is Kidnapped and
made prisoner by Newton and his
confederate, "Slick" Simmons. To
save her brother, Barbara, with
the aid of her sweetheart,
Harry Chambers, becomes
boy" and what she does in round
ing up the guilty ones forms one
of the most thrilling parts of the
season.

AT THE THEATERS
GE3TRE'S A TT" all right, in
The Better Ole" Just

G6fTRE'S A 1T" all right, il
III The Better Ole" JUS
as the Bairnsfather car
toons touched a different chord ii
the war symphony, SO does the little
sketchy engagement, in which his
trio of 'eroes live, move and speak
strike a new note in the way of com
edy. 1t gives a proof oflthe buoy
ancy of soul that could not be
quenched by hardship or privation
that was proof against danger and
WEAKNESS alike, that would neither
be smothered in the fog nor lost in
the mud of Flanders. Il is bundle
of splinters from the life of that
army that stood four years between
the Hun and civilization, and laugh
ed even when its chance seemed
most slender. Old Bill, Bert and All
typify the men who added new
chapter to the imperishable glory OF
the English-speaking race, and these
fragmentary glimpses of their life
are intended to vision in way the
record of their desperate effort.
The humor of it all is obvious,
to be sure, without subtlety or sug-
gestion, but none the less enjoyable
because of being plain. 1t is the
good-natured railiery of simple men,
the fun that held their minds steady
through days of dreadful tragedy.
A progress up to the trenches, a
night in the front line, a cou2e of
stops on the way back and then
"blighty," tells the tale, but along
the way fingers much laughter, and
some pathos. Old Bills elephantine
movements, his slow thought pro-
cesses and his solid sentiment are
offset by Alf's nimbleness and effer-
yescence, and Bert's never-ending
philandering. And no more really
effective bit of acting was ever
shown than the scene in which the
mail was searched and nothing found
for the either of the trio. Its poig-
nancy is distressing, for the specta-
tor can not evade something of the
disappointment that possesses each
of the men, eager for d word that
did not come.
Many good songs are sung as an
accompaniment to the telling of the
tale. most of them from the front.
Mr.. Haekett has often been seen
in Omaha, but never in a role from
which he extracted more of genuine
comedy, nor in which his talents
were better employed than in this
Mr.. Allen as Bert and Mr.. Sinclair
as Alf have whatever advantage
comes from hrst-hand knowledge Of
the life, for each had long and
lively time in the service, Mr.. Allen
being finally dismissed because of
disability incident to wounds re-
ceived on the Ypres front. 1t would
be presumptuous to criticize or
praise the portrayal of a "Tommie"
by either of these. Mr.. Aliens fine
tenor voice wins for him an enthu-
s:astic recall, his songs in the trench
scene being one of the best things of
the evening.
The company is an excellent or
ganization Of players and singers, the
staging wildly presents scenes
Somewhere in France and the
