Discusses World Politics in
House of Commons in Re-
ply to Questions
THE WORLD LOOKS TO
PRESIDENT WILSON
He is Charged With Duty Of
Calling Meeting Of World
Council

London. Nov. 81 (By the Associated
Press-Premier Lloyd George again
today stood on the floor OF the house
Of commons and answered a lengthy
list Of questions on all subjects, most
ly, however, in connection with the
European economic and military sit
uation arising from the war.
One of the most important of the
questions related to the condition OF
Austria, concerning which Comdr.
Viscount Cursor, coalition Unionist
member for Battersea South. asked
whether the supreme council in Paris
was taking steps to deal with the Sit
uation.
The premier declared that the su-
pren1e- council had reached the con-
clusion that only a comprehensive ar
rangement for large international
credit would adequately meet the sit
uation and that it was essential for
the success Of such a proposal that
this United tSates should contribute
that part OF the expenditures which
would have to be incurred in dollars.
Urgent representations have ac-
cordingly been made to the United
States government in this sense, the
premier added"
Questioned regarding whose duty
it would be to summon the first meet
ing Of the assembly and the first
meeting Of the council of the league
of nations in view of the fact of the
American senate's refusal to ratify
the Versailles treaty. Mr.. Lloyd
George said that Article 4 of the treaty
stipulc ed tn: the president Of the
United State. LOUD summon the
meeting. He added that he did not
understand that this was in any way
affected by the refusal OF the Anaeri-
can senatelto ratify the treatg..--,
,-Anotaieis inquiry made by James
N. IIogge, advanced radical and
Scottish home rule member for Edin-
burgh. was whether Mr.. Lloyd George
gave any undertaking to President
Wilson during the peace conference
that Mr.. Lloyd George would en-
deavor, to settle the Irish question.
This brought direct negative reply.
Answering still another question
the premier said that the effect Of the
American senate's action with regard
to the treaty provisions for plebisclte
and other commissions in Germany
would be only indirect. 1t would be
necessary for the other powers to find
a larger quota Of representatives for
these commissions.
The premier said that the Anglo
French-American treaty providing for
the defense of France IN cas-" OF wan
ton attack was contingent on rat:fica-
ton by the United States senate, but
that Americas refusal to ratify the
peace tretay would not necessarily ef-
feet the tri-partite treaty. provided the
United States ratified the ir;-partite
part separately.

D. w. GRIFFTTH'S
ARTS ALLIANCE

To David Wark Griffith credit
must be given for being a pioneer in
appealing 70 the vast majority Of play
goers and motion picture fans with
the same power as he appeals to the
educated few. This Is brought forth
vividly in Mr.. Grifhth's production Of
The FAN OF Babylon" as now show
ing at MOOre's Garden Theater.
In this tremendous spectacle, as in
his former triumphs, "Ths Birth Of
q Nation" and Hearts Of the World, /"
Mr.. Griffith has used an alliance Of
the arts to further the enjoyment OF
his work, appealing alike to the
masses and to those who know and
appreciate sculpture, painting, archie
lecture and music as well as the psy-
ehology Of suggestion.
Griffith today Is unquestionably the
dominant figure in the Amusement
world, standing quite alone not only
Is the master director OF super-pro-
ductions, but as dramatist as well, for
in The Fall OF Babylon" he both
wrote the story, engaged the players

ABOUT LILLIAN
GISH'S ACTING
SARDEH

Miss Lillian Gish has again proved
hcF remarkable talent as screen
actress II her performance OF Lucy,
the child, IN Broken Blossoms D.
w. GriRith's art sensation, TO be
shown at LoeW's Palace and Columbia
theaters for a full week, beginning
next Sunday.
In Thomas Burke's story. 'sThe
Chink and the Child" taken from
'LimehOuse Nights" Lucy, the daugh-
ter Of Battling Burrows" is SUP
posed to be twelve years old, but with
the license OF the artistic producer.
Mr.. Griffith took the liberty Of adding
three years TO her age.
Few who see her performances as
Lucy will forget that tragic moment
when at her bullying fathers COM
mand she tries to push her wan lips
into the semblance OF a smile. Mr.
Griffith declares that this was a
purely involuntary piece Of acting;
for when, during the photography OF
the frst scene Of cruelty between her
father and herself and she vas all IN
very real tears, he suggested as di-
rector, that she smile through her
tears
She tried to smile, but could not,
and then, quite naturally and with
out thought OF artihce, she. with
trembling fingers, tried to push up
the corners OF her lips. II was 50 pa
thetic and human a gesture that Mr..
Griffith at once realized its value and
II remains one Of the striking notes
OF the performance Of this moving
"tale OF loves and lovers"
