NO PERMANENT HOME

Augustus Thomas, executive chair
man of the Producing Managers AS
sociation. announced last night that
this organization has started the es-
adjustment of a national theater,
with which it aims to further the
American drama with ramifications
that will reach into all sorts OF by
ways, including the universities and
the amateur dramatic societies hither-
to neglected by the commercial man
terest in the stage.
The aims and purposes of the pro-
posed national theater, as far as they
have been defined by the organizers
Of the project. are set down in the
articles of incorporation. which are
being prepared. as follows:
A. To increase the interest of the pub
lie in the drama as an art, belonging
both to literature and to the theater,
and therefore 70 be employed both In
the study and on the stage.
B. To advance the interests Of the
drama in the United States by further
ing the production OF the best plays in
terpreted by the best actors.
c. TO encourage the siablishment : :
national theater which shall hold up
a lofty standard before all other theat-
rical enterprises. ON
ID. TO stimulate the study OF the
drama Of the present and Of the past in
our universities. our colleges and our
schools.
u. To organize throughout the United
States subsidiary associated groups to
further these aims and purposes.
The undertaking, Mr.. Thomas said.
has the backing or the commercial man
ayers Of the association. He declared
that no effort would be made to localize
the national theater In any single New
York playhouse. the trouble with such
movements hitherto having been that
the venture was too much of real
estate proposition.
"Now." he said, "the aim Is 20 have.
say. one company playing Shakespeare
and another doing high grade modern
comedy and have them travel around
the country"
Mr.. Thomas said that the following
men outside the Producing managers

Washington. ID. G., Dec. 1.
The ship subsidy bill, President Har-
ding's pet measure. Is drifting on the
rocks in the Senate. A combination
Of Democrats and insurgent Repubn-
cans is determined to defeat 1t either
by n roll call or prolonged debate.
The President thinks If the measure
ltgh be brought to a roll call 1t will

ate are in the way.
Mr.. Harding told callers he was
more interested in the subsidy bin
than any other legislation since he be-
came President II was conceded by
Administration leaders to-day that the

Two barriers, apparently insurnount-
able face supporters of the bin in the

success Of the fllbuster against the Dyer

Again since the election Senate lead.

ton Over Oil Lands.
BLAMES STANDARD OIL
Irwin Untermyer Departs To-
day for Lausanne to Conduct
Case at Conference.
BLAMEs STANDARD OIL

Samuel Untermyer is representing
tan of Turkey, in q controversy before
the Lausanne Near East conference
over what is described as billions of
dollars worth of mineral lands in the
Mesopotamia oil area. His son, Irwin,
will sail to-day OH the Olympic to rep
resent his father in Lausanne. 1t was
only when his passage was booked
yesterday that the fact of his fathers
interest in the case became known.
The struggle for possession of the
property is between twenty-five Turkish
princes and princesses on one hand and
the Standard Oil Company on the other,
with various other interests attempting
to participate in the millions.
Mr.. Untermyer last night charged that
the Standard Oil Company Is "actively
cunning" for the fields after it's most
approved gum-shoe fashion and as
serted he was convinced that when
Secretary Hughes becomes aware OF the
uses to which the Standard Oil Company
Is now seeking to put our Government
the entire scheme will collapse"
Abdul Hamd's heirs are supported by
the Turkish Government
According to Mr. Untermyer, Capt.
John Godolphin Bennett. former military
attache of the British Embassy at Con-
stantinople and a friend OF the sons and
daughters Of the Sultan, entered into an
agreement with those heirs whereby they
turned over their interests to him. lie
paid several hundred thousand dollars
in cash and agreed to pay other large
sums in the way of taxes, registering
titles and organizing companies In which
the beirs would be Interested. In this
enterprise he was joined by Lieut.. Col.
G. Maitland Edwards, also a British orr
Ger. They perfected their titles and
organized five companies.
when l was in Europe last summer
Capt Bennett and Col Edwards, rep
resentlng the Turkish interests. re-
tanned me to act for those interests, :"
said MIR. tntermyer. 81 am told that
the Standard Oil Company. which is
actively cunning In the Me5opotarnia oil
fields after it's most approved gum
shoe fashion with the help of our State
Government, has heen circulating ru-
mors relative to one John w. DeKay,
whose name has appeared in dispatches
from Lausanne in connection with the
Mesopotamia fields. This is, I under
stand. a part OF the Standard OILS
propaganda.
''I am convinced that when our dis
tinguisbed Secretary OF State Is made
aware of the uses to which the Stand
ard oil Company Is now seeking to
put our Government this whole scheme
of the Standard Oil Company win COLI
lapse.
