BRYAN fEUD IS REVIVED
BY HAROLD D. JACOBS.

New York. April 20.-The present
administration is facing the test of
Democratic opinion in two states to-
day.
fractional fights which will be car
ried into the primaries in Georgia and
Nebraska have resulted in aligpments
wherein the vote may be interpreted
by some as endorsement or repudia-
ton of President Wilson's stand on the
peace treaty and League of Nations.
Georgia VOses on Palmer.
In Georgia, Attorney General A.
Mitchell Palmer has conducted his
campaign for the presidential nomina-
ton almost wholly on the record of the
Wilson government and has declared
himself in sympathy with the presi-
dents attitude toward the pact and
covenant.
Opposing Palmer are the forces OF
Senator Hoke Smith. Thomas Hard
wick. former senator. and Thomas T..
Watson. former congressman. They
have accepted Palmer's choice of a
campaign issue and the ante-primary
battle has been extremely bitter. Will
liam C. McAdoo, who also stands back
of the record of the ADMINISTRATION, is
expected to receive q fairly large
written in" vote. This was the first
state in which McAdoo refused to al
low his name on a primary ballot.

Dental vote in 1916 was 1918 for
Wilson to 1924 for Charles E.
Hughes.
Revive Nebraska Fcud.
The Democratic primary in Ne
braska has resulted in a revival OF the
feud between william y. Bryan and
Senator Hitchcock The former is a
candidate for delegate at large to the
San Francisco convention. Hitchcock
consented TO have his name appear on
the ballot that he may oppose Bryan.
The senator has been the administra-
ton leader during the treaty fight and
was greatly embittered by Bryan's
open opposition to the president S
stand against reservations to the pact
Nebraska has sixteen Democratic
delegates. Its last presidential vote
was 15s.s27 for Wilson and 117,771
for Hughes.
First Pcrshing Test.
The Republicans also have an In
teresting situation in Nebraska. Gen.
John ]. Pershing is making his first
real bid for the Republican nomina-
tion. He is opposed by Major General
Wood and Senator Hiram johnson.
Political sharps have it all figured out
that the two army men will split the
conservative vote, giving Johnson a
good chance for the states endorse

whom her remarkable powers of mind
have not had profound influence.
Her extraordinary pathos and realism
in portraying death scenes have left
a lifelong impression on all those
who ever saw her.
She is a Jewess of Dutch French
parentage, baptized into the Catholic
church at twelve years of age. She
was educated in a convent and to this
day is a devout Catholic, though she
hard is because she does not believe
in any other life and has to crowd in
all her efforts in this one. She is also
an artist and sculptor of considerable
merit, having received honorable men,
ton at a number of exhibits in Paris.
She claims that she would have con-
tented herself with much less renown
in any one of these fields, as it would
have left her work behind her, where
as now she would leave only a pleas
ant memory.
ALA Nazimova brings to the West
ern world wealth of Oriental fire and
mystic charm. She is Jewess born
in Crimea in 1879. The debt America
owes her is for her parts in Ibsen.
Ibsen had been tabooed in England as
a "highbrow," a sociologist, reform
err, a notwithstanding save
what he really is-a master dramatist
of giant powers. From England his
bad reputation was brought to Amer
lea. The result was that no actor or
producer dared have anything to do
with him. Nazimova came to America
and played Ibsen and packed theaters
for weeks on end. She showed us that
good work is better than trash-for in
literature this alas! has to be shown.

Pavlovah, another Russian Jewess,
is a dancer, but she is also supreme
actor. Her technique is marvellous.
But it is classic. Every move is de-
fined and circumscribed- restraint be-
ing the primary aim. Some few years
ago as super in a number of her pro-
auctions l was constantly astonished
by her prodigious efforts toward per-

suit, you are entranced by her the first
time, charmed the second, and do not

her go through exercises that would
have taxed a champion athlete. No
matter how many times she has
danced and acted piece, you find
her long before the rise of the curtain
going through fantastic movements,
limbering toes and arms, waving
hands, and spinning through the air
piece. Because of that classic rigidity
of hers, she lacks the abandon of the
newer dancers who are in rebellion
against the set forms imposed upon
life and art. But she nevertheless
still remains the foremost dancer in
the world.
These are few of the foremost
Jewish actresses. They sit enthroned
on the Hottest peaks of stageland. But
there are many, very, very many
more without whom the whole histri-
onic art would be barren-would not
