Friendly Enemies" the famous
international comedy success which
A. H. Woods will present at the
Opera House on Friday, Oct. IT, not
only received a glowing endorsement
from President Wilson, which was
published throughout the English
speaking world and from the press
and public of three continents, but
from other notable men who have
gone out of their way to lend their
approval to this magnificent Ameri-
can comedy.
Supplementing the endorsement
bestowed upon Friendly Enemies"
by President Wilson in Washington,
Admiral William c. Braisted, surgeon
general of the United States navy,
said: This is, indeed, great play.
Take the lesson it teaches tome to
yourselves and you will feel bet
ter for having seen it. Every man,
woman and child in America should
see e."
William Churchill, director of the
Division of foreign language publ
cation in the Creel Bureau said of
Friendly Enemies:'
II shall not comment upon the
dramatic quality of the play, appeal
ing as it is. To me it transcends
the qualities which some within the
province of the ordinary dramatic
critics. 1t is the picture of the deep
loyalty of those German-Americans
10 land their own fathers adoption
and it will prove of the utmost value
in teaching that the German-Ameri-
cans are ready to tear the hyphen
from the name; that no longer will
they remain apart in race conscious
ness; that citizens of German source
are with US all as Americans jealous
to save the rights of humanity in
freedom of life thought"

to making Good
Immediate Understanding Necessary
Omitted Press Service)

PARIS, April 3.-The Russian So
Wet government is not asking recog-
milton by the associated powers.
1t is authoritatively learned tonight
that substantially the proposition
made to the associated powers by
Russia is to make a peace that will
enable the government of that coun
try to bring on an end the numerous
smaller wars within their own terri
tory, and lift the blockade, permitting
Russia to get food. Then Russia
promises to "make good" The al
lies can recognize the Russian gov
ernment, if they care to.
1t is understood that the Russians
are willing to make peace without in
Guiding the new Hungarian govern
ment.
Z Lenine, the Bolshevik premier,
agrees to cease propaganda outside
of Russia, and devote all energy to
proving Soviet government a success.
The big Four" leaders are con-
sidering important economic conces
sions to Russia and Hungary. 1t is
understood that the allies are con-
vinced that an immediate understand
ing with those two countries is nee
essary. Meantime continued failure
of the conference to make progress
has emphasized pessimism here. In
some quarters a proposition is dis
cussed looking to making -peace on
general lines if a settlement is to be
reached before there comes crisis
in Germany.
