GERMAN BANKS JOIN
TO TRANSFER GOLD.
Metal Will BE Sent to England
to Guarantee Notes Given
to Belgium.

LONDON, Sept 90 ASSOCIATED Press).
The formation of a consortiura OF
German banks organized for the trans
fer OF their actual gold or securities
held abroad to the Bank of England
in return for credits for the guaranty
Of the German treasury notes offered
to Belgium, is thought to have been the
solution Of the acute reparations PROB
lem between Belgium and Germany.
The reason for the absolute secrecy
on the part OF Berlin and London has
been because there Is an understanding
that neither France nor Belgium should
be advised where the securities and bank
deposits are located. 1t is pointed out.
however, that the Bank of England,
being a private institution, could not
guarantee the notes offered to Belgium
without the physical possession of these
securities.

CAPITOL. HUNGRY HEARTS
adapted from the stories by Anna

Hopper.
The Land OF the Free.

A second Rip Van Wrinkle has stag
gered forth from the Businesses of the
Goldwyn lot and is on view this week
at the Capitol. Like "The Sin Flood. "
which YVES seen here some weeks
back. Hungry Hearts" is a picture
which has waited long for Broadway
showing. It was produced long time
ago Gas time is reckoned In the infant
Industry and has been permitted to
collect nothing more profitable than
dust ever since
Having shaken off the dust, it may
now venture forth and gather in a few
cleaning shekels. 1t certainly made
an auspicious start yesterday. We
have seldom seen a larger crowd than
that which stormed the portals of the
worlds largest theater-or a-more en-
thusiastic one after it had forced its
way past the vigilant guardian Of the
gate. Hungry Hearts" registered an
emphatic hit.
1t deserves to succeed, for it pos
sesses many Of those rare qualities
which go to make up great picture.
1t does not achieve real greatness, but
it threatens the heights several times
The plot is a composite narrative,
formed from several of Anna Yezier-
skG's stories OF Jewish immigrant life
in America. First it describes their
tribulations under Romaneff rule in
ussia. and then proceeds to depict
their tribu!ations under Tammanv
rule in New York. The spectator is
permitted to take his choice between
the two evils.
In Russia, the peasants were SUBJ
jected to the tyranny of the Cossacks.
In America. they come into uppleas-
antly close contact with landlords. And
between the two, they have a pretty
tough time of it.
Because Hungry Hearts" is a
movie. and must therefore make its
appeal to a wide audience, 1t is neces-
sary that it end happily Conse-
ruently, after the story has run it's
course, a regular dress suit
fi.s..ll is tackled on so that Merton Gill
will not have to go home with q bad
taste in his mouth.
Rosa Rosanova contributes very
fine performance as Jewish mother

Gordon made famous in "Humor-

Tho Race Question.

Those who enter the Strand this week
are assailed. via the, nostril, by the
pungent odor OF incense. 1t is heavy
and inescapable We sat, throughout
the performance, inhaling great clouds
of the perfume which is generally used
70 drive mosquitoes away. Although
we left the theater in possession of a
good headache. we feel that we must
not complain. II the proprietors OF
the Strand had not provided this en-
forced atmosphere, some of the audi
once might not have known that the
feature picture is Chinese.
East Is West" succeeds in provid-
ing excellent entertainment in spite
OF the incense. 1t is a good vehicle for
Constance Talmadge, and II is well
directed by Sydney Franklin. Miss
Talmadge is her usual roguish self.
and she uses her wide variety of fiirta-
'ious expressions with considerable
effect She does not look the least bit
Chinese, hut that doesn't make much
difference. Nobody is' fooled into be-
ieving that the heroine OF story like
this could be anything but the daugh-
ter of Christian missionary who was
rnirited away by a Chinaman when
she was still in her infancy and brought
up on the doctrines of Confucius, &c.
This is the one trouble with East
Is West +" There is no suspense. The
same story has been done 80 often be-
fore, in pictures like wing Toy and
"A Daughter Of Two Worlds" that the
audience is wise to the denouement
as soon as the projection machine
starts running.
Fortunately, East Is West" doesn't
place much reliance on suspense or
melodrama 1t Is comedy. and an
unusually adept one.
The role of Charlie Young. the
villainous dispenser of chop suey. has
been entrusted to Warner GLAND who
appeared last week at the Rivoli in
"The Pride of Palomar." In that pic
ture Mr.. GLAND was not permitted to
do anything but leer and make un-
pleasant remarks about the United

however, Mr.. GLAND is given a chance
to act; and he does it in a thoroughly

Hon voyage.


There is no routine kindness more
annoying than the bon ToyaOe gift.
II is astonishing with what regularity
your friends can select little some
thing for which you could have no
possible Use at sea or a big something
for which you could find no room at
all in your luggage.
A basket of fruit or a good book
trouble with the fruit is that you
never quite know what TO do with it.
1t may seem little unappreciative to
send it at once to the steerage. or,
just as the ship glides past Ambrose
TO open your portfolio and pitch it
fnr;ively into the sea. Yet if you
leave it in your stateroom you find
half syour voyage intolerably compli-
Gated by the strange aromatics of de-
cay. OF course you cannot possibly
cat the stuff. You need all your ca
pacity TO meet the emergency in
volved in each of the six meals where
with the chief steward strives to keep
the passengers distracted.
A book too. is doubtful blessing
You are won't to find yourself sailing
off in quest of adventure, as we did
last summer. weighted down with four
copies OF Gentle Julia Besides. it is
an Illusion, hotly denied by all ex-
perience. that you want to read much
or at any rate, that you will read
much while on shipboard If you do,
there is the ships library, and as the
voyage is nearly over before you can
lure the deck steward into opening
the cases in the salon, it does not
much matter that the old bookworm
who made the collection for the ship
owners was the kind that would Sc
lect set of the complete works Of
Beaumarchais in superb bindings and
terrible type. several books of about
the weight and vintage of "The Mis-
sissippi Bubble by Emerson Hough,
and an excessive number OF hymnals.
1t does not much matter because by
this time enough people will have be-
gun TO leave really alluring books on
their deck chairs while grimly taking
their constitutionals. and if you are
careful TO study the periodicity of
their, recurrence on your. side of the
ship you can collect quite n little
travelling library and keep 1t in your
stateroom.s
Some bon Uoyd0e gifts that seem so
charming while the good-bys are still
being waved from the pier are likely
TO lose their glamour before the trip is
over. We were once thus deceived by
the tribute os a lot of jolly friends
who came do,yl to see us off. 1t was
in the lax. pre-war days when ones
pals could swarm up the gangplank,
examine ones stateroom and laugh
heartily at its dimensions. On this oc-
casion so many bottles of champagne
were ordered up and quaffed with
good wishes that we sailed across
warmed by the glow of true Illusion
of popularity. This was not dispelled
until We reached Liverpool and were
