About Writing and
Its Chief Elements

Mrs. Mary Roberts Rinehart. the
noted novelist. whose book. The
Circular Staircase has been dra-
matized by Mrs. Rinehart and Avery
Hopwood as The Bat" is a great
believer in the'use of hero-worship
as the basis for her writings.
"Playgoers are exactly like read
ers of books" says Mrs. Rinehart.
They both like a good story. ]
think a play must have a really In
teresting story just a sthough II
were going to be read Action and
situations. no matter how well
staged, alone. will not hold an audi
ence. In this narrative and stage
writing are very similar. A plot is
essential to both. ana 1 cannot say
which / enjoy most.
Readers and audiences like mys-
terry and suspense. They like to
have their detective ability tested
and enjoy being baffled by queer
twists to a story. 1t is mental eX-
ercise for them. And | firmly be-
lieve that we are all more or less
grownup children. We all are hero
worshippers at heart. There is an
inherent love of heroes and the ro-
mantle in all of us. Plays of ad-
venture. and good strong plays are
coming back into their own. 1
would not be surprised to see the
turgid and tragic plays that thrilled
our parents come back into popu-
laFity. The public. I feel positive,

mothers who bore a child in the
year 1920. and who gave the occu-
patton of the father The returns
received included I.46I,6o4 children
born in 1920. or all but 81 per cent
of the total number of children
born in that year within the regis
tration area of the United States.
The returns were uapulated with
reference to the occupation of the
father. The average number OF
children ever born ranges from 4.s
for mining foreman. overseers and
inspectors to is for soldiers. SAIL

For example, the low figures for
dentists, ?: architects, 81, and

ing contrast with the figures for

ciples which they desired eventu-
ally to see embodied in interna
tional law
The chairman said that there
were two distinct propositions be-
fore the committee. The first.
broadly stated, was an attempt to
amend and improve existing inter-
national law, in the sense that sub
marines should not be used at all
as destroyers of commerce. There
might be some difficulty in deter
mining definitely when international
law had actually been amended, but
he believed that some means could
probably be found of establishing
a criterion - as, for example, by
stating that the agreement should
be effective on the adherence of
powers named.
The other proposal, which had
been made by Mr.. Balfour and ac-
cepted by Mr.. Root, was that, re-
CARELESS of the outcome of the first
proposal. the FIVE powers represent
ed on the committee should bind
as among themselves,
not to use the submarine for the
of commerce.
would assist the consideration of
this question II he were to give the
exact words in which his own pro-
posal should be formulated. He
would amend the last part Of Ar
ticle II so as to read as follows:
They declare their assent to
such prohibition, and they agree to
be bound forthwith thereby as be-
tween themselves. and they invite
all other nations to adhere to the
present agreement
The subcommittee for drafting a
resolution regarding submarines
was made up as follows: United
States, Mr.. Root; British Empire,
sir Auckland Geddes; France, Vice
Admiral lie Bon and Mr.. Kammerer;
italy, Signor Ricci; Japan. Mr.. Ha-
nihara.-
The meeting then adjourned I'M

fer unofficia.ly tomorrow and Satur
day with French, Belgian and Italian
business men. They will proba bly,

Sir Robert Kindersley has a plan
for the establishment of an inter-
national corporation backed by pri-
vate capital which will include Brit
ish. French, Belgians, Italians, Ru
manians and perhaps Germans and
Russians.
The business of the corporation will
be to finance International trade. in

fishing credit by sort of clearing

Is the reconstruction Of Russia and
its restoration as a seller and a pur-

CALLS PEKN GOVERNMENT
INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT
E. K. Moy, Director of China Trade Bureau,
Says Canton Control Alone Is Legal.

The Pekin government is lille
gal. incompetent, corrupt and
bankrupt" declared E. X. Moy, d.
rector of the China Trade Bureau
of New York. in a speech discus
sing the relation of South China to
the conference, at the National
Council for Limitation of Arma-
ment yesterday. 1T is Illegal be-
cause the constitution provides
that the President be elected by a
parliament, and when the legal
term of the last President expired
there was no parliament to elect
another. A parliament was formed
in violation Of the law, and last
fall that parliament was dissolved
on the ground that 1t was illegal
by the President it elected.
No Tangible Benefits.
The Pekin government exercises
no control and receives no revenue
even from the provinces nominally
supposed to be under 1t. The fact
