A general denial Of charges brought
against the Famous Players-Lasky Cor

monopoly in the motion picture in
dustry, WAS made yesterday by the
gccretary and treasurer of the corpora

official requested that his name be

The statement in the complaint that
the Famous Players Corporation con-

regarded as ridiculous" He declared
that the Real Art Corporation, which
the complaint says was "held out to the
trade to be wholly independent" had
never been represented as such, be-
cause everyone knows and will tell
you that Realart is one of our afFilia-
tions." Regarding the extent of the
corporations foreign holdings and con-
troll, said TO include more than eight
countries with a 100000 corporation
in India, the official said that "oniy a
small fraction" Of that complaint was
true.
Intending TO point out the injustice
of the charge OF exclusion in the local
picture industry, the official said that
while the Paramount corporation re-
tanned the two theaters. the Rivoli and
the Rialto, for the exclusive showing
Of it's pictures, the Strand was used
similarly for the exclusive showing of

than rhetorical quality. But last
night it seemed that the sorority the
speech should have had in order to
enkindle n multitude and an audience
was lost in a shrill but believable

The New Play
BY Percy Hammond
swords at the New Ma
tional, Is a Dignificd Rite,
Though Replete With
Poetry and Passions
TIE CAST

"Swords" is one Of those distinguished
endcavors which try, with stately and
ratrician ardor, to make the theater an
adult institution. It's language is mu-
steal and full of something like poetic
fire. It's scene is scholar's idea of
medieval Italy. Its characters are the
picturesque people Of the period, and its
action stirs, if reluctantly at times, with
the ferocity, the lust, the intrigue and
the perhdy common to its somewhat
CORY epoch.
The principal players, Miss Glare
Eames and Mr.. Josd Ruben. are skilled
in intelligent impersonation and in
the melodious utterance of luscious
conversation. The stages background
Is by Robert Edmond Jones, whose
brush, except to Shakespeare, can do
no wrong. Yet, with all those impos-
ing advantages, Swords" as a play in
thcater seemed last night at the new
National to assume too often the peril
Gus aspects Of ceremonious bore.

That impression may be the breath

CHICAGO. Sept. 1.-Commenting on
President Harding's failure to act on
an application for a pardon for Eugene
Dobs until after the peace treaty with
Germany is ratified. the Socialist ma
tional executive committee, which. Is
meeting here, to-day declined ITO &c
cept the latest reason given for failure
to act"
A statement issued by the committee
refers to the release Of many convicted
German spies, some of whom "were
convicted of placing bombs on ships
sailing for European ports" 1t con-
tinues:
"The latest reason given for failure
to act is not in accord with the known
facts. 1t is known that one miIitarist
organization, tho American Legion
born under mysterious financial aus
pices, that has INDUCED in kidnapping
Of Socialist speakers, that has fostered
n mob spirit and has inspired and led
mobs, has insolently attempted 70
thwart the efforts of millions to re-
store this country to its old status as
nation where all are free to speak
and to write.
This budding militarist- junker
clique does not represent the present
or the future. If it gained ascendancy
in the councils of the nation it would
suppress every civil right with the
bayonet, as the strutting militarist
caste did in the old Germany"

Jersey Soldier Bonus
La,U Is Declared VaIixI
Attorney General Says Consti-
fsstionaI Objections in NeaV
York Do Not affect Coso

TRENTON. N. j.. Sept, 1.--Thomas
F. McCran. Attorney General of New
Jersey, to-day declared the soldier
bonus law of the state valid. He de-
clared constitutional objections to the
soldier bonus law in New York State
did not affect the validity of the New
Jersey law.
THE New York court. said the At
torncy General, "found that the pur-
pose for which the bonds are to be
issued is a public one The New Jer-
sey act contemplatcs this, for our con
stitution authorizes passing Of a law,
when sanctioned by the vote of the
people, permitting creation of a debt Of
the state. In conformity with this con.
stitutional provision the Legislature
enacted the soldier bonus law, which
was overwhelmingly approved at the
polls"
Bidders on the New Jersey bond
issue, as in New York, conditioned
their bids on the upholding Of the act
as constitutional, and it was to reas-
sure the bidders that Mr.. McCran's
statement was issued. There has been
no contest of the constitutionality of
the New JERSEY act.
