 The presence in Berlin of an American diplomatic representative, while Ger many is not represented in Washington. has created situation that evidently is perplexing to the Wilhemstrasse. Ellis L. Dressel, commission of the United States arrived here Sunday and is domi- ciled in the former American embassy building.
 It is not expected that Mir. Dresse1 will present his credentials to the foreign of flee.

 In view of the very emphatic statement emanating from Washington to the effect that the armistice conditions still are governing relations between the two countries, the question of a German rep- resentative in Washington has not been discussed, even to the extent of hintinp at the man probable for the post. to which the government evidently is at taching great importance.

 T.Ay have placed "Delverance' in the front rank of photoplays, declar- ing it a powerful inspiration and an absorbing drama of fife. It is pro- duted on a lavish scale and Miss KeI- Ter is supported by an excellent cast.
 It is the story of Miss Keller's life. one of the most interesting of any liv- ing person. Miss Keller knows all of the great people of America and her life has been full with big things. Contrasted with her achievements in "Deliverance' is the story of a girl who has failed to realize her advan- tages
