manifested a stubborn intention not to concede any real satisfaction on the most important point of the Rus sian reconstruction problem-namely, the question of private property.
 Whether talking about trading with Russia or equipping her for her economic restoration, the first reqNi- site is that the traders and outfitters know-as the French proverb says on which foot they are dancing If private property Is not effective y guaranteed, then commerce and en- terprise are impracticable. But the soviets refuse the33 guarantees There is no doubt about this issue Any formal agreement reached cannot affect this fundamental disagree ment.
 Economically Dead
 Therefore. Genoa economically is dead. The soviets are disappointed and Lloyd George more So. It means that his great idea has collapsed and his predictions gre wrecked. This is the compelling reason for his anxiety to save the face of things and sus- stitute some sort of political result for the dead hope of political achievement.
 Instead of admitting that the con ference has failed because the real object of the oviets was misunder- stood, it will be said that it was sabotage of the French. This ex- plains the great press campaign, the echo of which already has reached yoa.
 From the very first d., of the conference this campaign began.

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE

Topped with an act consisting of
four young beauties, three of whom
are accomplished in barefoot dancing,
and one in the handling of violin,
the Murray holiday bill is one of keen
interest.
Several of the most elaborate set
tings seen here recently belong to the
headlining offering. Practically the
entire program is one of dancing, but
the brief appearances of the young
violinist In the opening scene and
again in a solo number are well are
well received. Spanish songs and
dances are featured.
Bert Howard is a dignified comedian
if, by any stretch of the imagination,
one can be so classed. His baneuvers
on the piano, together with his light
line of talk, is responsible for many a

ADJUSTMENTS

"Conceit,' the latest Selznick special
now showing at the Murray theatre,
the spectator is provided with a varie-
ty of action and scene that is decidedly
enjoyable. The story is a spirited one
of love, romance and adventure but
with the conventional conspicuous by
its absence. The locale ranges from
the brilliant home of a millionaire to
+ the humble abode of a backwoods trap
per. But the setting of the trapper's
nome is provided with a natural back
ground that Is possessed of far greater
grandeur than any man made dwelling.
The characters range from society
leaders to halfbred Indians and each is
portrayed by players of ability and
fame. Burton George directed and his
work speaks for itself in the finished
picture on the screen.
Special mention must be made of
the excellent work done by w. B.
Davidson, Hedda Hopper, Maurice Cos
tello and Petty Hilburn, who have the
principal roles. The photography, set
tings and technical work are of the
best
"Conceit" was made from the Mi
chael ]. Phillips story, s"The Toll of
tine Wilderness" and was produced
under the direction of Burton George.
MURRETTE
"On trial for his life" is a phrase
that carries with it a grim chill. Yet
men have been placed on trial for
their life for deeds of violence COM
mitted because of the demands of
their code of honor.
This is the situation in which Rob-

ton with the lovely Katherine Mac

thrills and unexpected twists, not the
least surprising of which is the YER
dict reached by the jury at this trial.
