of Ibanez's The Four Horseman
of the Apocalypse"-Rex Ingram.
Ingram has picturized this fanci-
full romance of Middle Europe on
a vast, beautiful and profound
scale. While employing mass ef-
fects to the greatest advantage at
certain points in the production,
he has nicely balanced these ef.
fects with more intimate touches
in which the human, romantic ele-
ment has been intensified to n
high degree and which furnishes
a INSTALLATION OF the novels
suspense and interest that was i'm
possible OF attainment via the
printed page.
The story itself concerns the al.
most-successful effort of a royal
renegade to kidnap his weak
brother, the ruler of Ruritania,
and make himself the ruler. Just
how this leads to a maze Of plots
and plotting and how II
affects the course OF true love are
elements that make The Priso-
ner of Zenda" a deserving story.
The beautiful Alice Terry has
been cast in the royal role of the
princess. while Lewis Stone Is the
young Englishma hero. Such
popular players as Barbara La
Marr, Stuart Holmes, Ramon
Navarro. Robert Edeson and many
others are In the supporting cast.

Mr.. Walsh was in Washington for

to comment on the situation in
America as contrasted with what he
has seen in Europe during his re-

Through his experience on the

His first response to my query
was as follows:
American principles of freedom"

America because they lie at the
base of the struggle for freedom
everywhere. When our friends in
