TO BUILD INTERNATIONAL CITY
Idea Is Revived By King Albert Of
Belgium

! lABSOCldteu fTeSSI
Brussels, May 16.-The striking
idea Of building an "internationa
city" at the gates Of Brussels which
was first proposed to King Albert OF
the Belgians in 1913 has been re-
yived and 1t is now proposed to erect
the city and inagurate 1t at the same
tim as the Brussels International
Exposition in 1890.
1t is intended that the information
al city shall be permanent institu-
ton where every country will have
building in which it will display
not only to manufactures and pro-
ducts but examples of its art and
records of its social progress.
These plans were first submitted
to King Albert in 1913 by Hendrick
C. Anderson, an American sculptor,
formerly of Newport, r. l., who then
was living in Rome. Mr.. Anderson
was aided in preparing his plans for
the ideal city by Senator Henri La

PRAISES MARKETING SYSTEM
L. L. Winters Speaks Before Kansas
Grain Dealers Association
to1


Wichita, May 16.-The present
grain marketing system was de-
clared the most efficient and Geo.
nomical ever devised by L. L. Win
tiers Of Chicago in speech before
the Kansas Grain Dealers Associa-
ton here.
Through the medium Of this sys-
tenn" Mr.. Winter said, "grains are
handled with a smaller percentage of
handling cost from producer to con-
sumer than any other farm product.
The farmer receives more for his
grain, the consumer pays less than
would be the case under any other
marketing system in the world.
"The basis Of the systems econ
omy is found in the hedging facili-
ties afforded by the future market,
and these hedging facilities through
the future market are made possible
by organized speculation"

TO PROTECT POLICY HOLDERS
Danish Government to Require More

Copenhagen, May 16.-The Dan

troduce bill in the Rigsdag to the
effect that foreign life insurance
companies in future are to invest the
premium reserve of their Danish pol

The existing laws require only a
cash deposit of 100000 kroner
(about $2O,O00) to transact life IN
surance business in Denmark but
there is some apprehension that the
present exchange position may so de-
velop that those foreign companies,

Stage Folk Give Surprise
Party for Edward E. Rice
Veteran Producer Honored at
Bill at Apollo, With the
Theater Packed

A surprise party was given at the
Apollo Theater last night in honor of
Edward Everett Rice, producer of many
stage successes of an earlier era on
Broadway. Friends of the veteran
producer, who now is in his seventy
fifth year, and managers and stars got
together to give him a big entertain
ment.
:, Mr.. Rice's productions included
"Adonis," Captain Kidd Jr," "Io-
lanthe," "The Mikado," "Pinafore,"
"Mr. Wick Of Wickham" and "When
We Were Twenty one" Among those
who obtained their start under his d.
rection, or were associated with him in
the early part of their careers, were
Lillian Russell, Fay Templeton, Elsie
Janis, William II. Crane, Sam Bernard
Julian 'Eltinge. William Collier, Nat
Goodwin, Bernard Granville, Louis
Mann, jeff de Angels and Max Fig
man. Selling programs at the theater
was Carrie Behr, who appeared in the
original "Adonis" company.
Burr Mcintosh was master of cere-
monies and in charge of bill of en-
tertainment tnat affected Mr.. Rice
deeply. Those on the program included
Miss Janis. Frank Tinney, Marion Sun
shine, Ned Wayburn, the Arlington
Sisters, Mabel Berra, Amelia Somer-
Vile and Edythe Baker. The overture
was from Mr.. Rice's "Evangeline. :"
The theater was packed.

Flame" is one of those pictures which
keep people going to the theaters in
the hope that they will encounter them
often.
1t is long since we read Balzac s
story, but we have an idea that the
ending was not 81 happy one. 1t seems
to us, though we do not speak with
any degree Of certainty, that the young
duchess remained in the convent. That
WAS our impression, so 1t was with a
distinctly pleasurablo thrill that we
saw the mother superior walk in md
say, "You have failed in.tho test which
/ have given you. The world has called
and your heart has answered" So he
and she sailed away over the sunlit
sea and left behind them the forbid
ding gray walls Of the convent.
For those who cannot take their
movies without moral there is in the
story lesson for the nirt. Because
the duchess trifed with the henrts OF
mon, she had her own heart broken
and very nearly had brand set upon
her forehead. Adolphe Menjou is ex-
cellent in the role of Due dc Langeais.
1t Is wonder the director kept him
