AMERICAS INDEPENDENCE.

President Hardings warning against foreign entange
eu+s has proved to the most popular part OF MS e
ouent inauguration speech The favorable comment la'
s sentiment has aroused from everywhere shows the e-
Deraen of the American people and indicates one OF the
chief causes of the unpopurty of the wilson adhnlSla
tion
It NAV be necessary the United States to take part
again in an European if international law IS violated or
human rights everywhere danger. But the merits OF
the case must first be decided by the American people, WHO
must determine if is justified The sentiment OF the
American people however, made evident on many occa
sons is against to back treaty with some 1oreg
nation There is for our signing treaty whlch
will obgae US to take up for the protection OF any
other nation. c>.. .
Theoretically the purpose of the League OF Nations IS
ideal Humanity tired of warfare and If the League OF
Nations would against future American would
certainly willingly become party to It, But IN the torn
that it was drawn up did insure against war 1t was
theoretical but it lacked in praccabity. 1t made TINS
country too much of an arber European quarres which
would certainly lead the that constantly
brewing in part of the world result of commercial
jeaousies and racial preludlces.
President Harding evidently has in mind plan of coop
Grating with the great of the earth to end wars
But he will approve of system which will unneces

ADJUSTMENTS
MUTT AND JEFF AT
THE PALACE TONIGHT

"Mutt and Jeff at the Races, a
musical comedy based on the famous
cartoon by Bud Fisher will appear
at the Palace theater tonight. 1t
promises a better than ordinary op-
portunity for a delightful evening s
entertainment. The company coming
across the country has played all the
important cities en- route, and here is
what an Ell Paso critic thinks of
the performance:
Mutt and Jeff at the Races" a mu-
steal comedy, supplied delightful en-
tertainment and plenty of fun for an
audience which filled the Crawford
theater last evening.
Dainty and graceful Lillian Gold
smith is really the hit of the piece,
particularly in her dancing.
Richard Freeman looks exactly like
the Mutt that greets the readers of
the daily papers and he acts just like
Mutt would be expected to if he
hoped out of the cartoons. His make
up in this character was excellent and
true in every detail to the drawing
Freeman carries away large share
of the honors, as does Dannie McCor-
mick, mite of man, who plays the
', character of Jeff.
There is a beauty chorus that sings
and dances right into your hearts, and
there is laugh in every line of the
play.
The piece is we'll staged and the
settings are good, particularly in the
second and last act. The action il
/ the second takes place on board 6
steamer bound for Mexican seaport
where chicle trees are supposed to
grow by the thousands.
| The comedy is built around a plot
and while it is the usual musical com
edy plot it yet hangs together better
than most of them.
There as soprano with the SHOW
whose name is not on the program
but she has a good voice and uses il
to good advantage.
In addition to the principles th'
other parts were capably handled.
