 Sentiment Of ImpIacabiIity
Armed Intervention by Al lies Regarded AS Ger tainty in Berlin. OFFICIALS GO
 TO WEIMAR Expect Reopening of Hos tilities As Soon As Seven
 Days End.

Copenhagen, June 1S-The amended peace terms have aroused a sentiment of grow ing implacability in German and armed intervention by the allies is regarded as inevitable, according to the Berlin cOrre- spOndent of the POiitiken. It is reported that Count von BrockdOrff-Rantzau, the head of the peace delegation, and Matthias Erzberger, chairman of the arnlistice commission. has recOnciled their differ enceS.
 The correspondent says that if the report is true the reconciliation will have an important bearing on the ac- ceptance or non-acceptance of the terms.
 The Socialist Vorwaerts of Berlin says it expects a reopening of hostil- 1ttes as soon as the seven days given Germany to make reply have ex- pired.
 The F'remdenhlatt of Hamburg says it learns that the Allied terms have caused great excitement ir eastern Germany, where the population is ready to reopen the fight.
 Berlin, Tuesday, June ftp till one o'clock this afternoon the people of greater Berlin were still without actual knowledge of the contents of the Entente reply to the German counter proposals, as the text of the covering note was all that was avail- able up to that hour Only those in touch with official quarters were in possession of the summary of the answer to Germany, no papers were published and the Wolff Bureaus re- port was the only transcript of the reply at the disposal of editorial rooms.
 The last officials of the Foreign Of flee left this morning for Weimar. An official telephone message received here just before noon from that city indicated the government was disap- pointed with the reply. Berlin edi- tors, who still enjoying an en- forced holiday because of the strike, decline to discuss the Entente re- joinder until the text is available.

 CLAIMS STAR

The paradox of a bright sun and high wind occurring at the same time brought ruin to two days of effort on the part of the Nitagraph company headed by Alice Joyce recently at Long Beach. The company, under the direction of George Terwlliigef. was making exterior scenes for the picture Pride" from the story writ ten by William 5. Courtney.
 The sun was all right, but the wind spoiled the equilibrium of all con cerned. For two mornings and two afternoons the company sa1lied forth from its sumptuous hotel quarters to the beach and tried to take romantic love scenes, Each time that Percy Marmont, playing opposite the star, started to whisper soft nothings or hiss stern something's at her, gazing from a distance of a foot and a half into her eyes. the wind blew It blew tendrils of the stars beautiful hair across the leading mans face, flashing his check furiously. Once or twice it bleH his own bang down over his forehead and eyes.
 'Its awfulIy hard to make love in the wind" said Miss Joyce, and the camera doesn't help the situation" Finally the company had to give 1t up and wait for a sensible day with a decent sun and no wind.
