METROPOLITAN,
Constance TalmadRe in "Polly Of
the Follies.s

Crowds that occupied every avail
able inch of space in the theater
and extended through the lobbies to
the street yesterday placed the
stamp of greatness upon the bill
arranged for the current week at
Crandall's Metropolitan Theater.
Foremost among the film features
Is Constance Talmadge's new We

Loos. in which the star is permitted
to gambol gaily in at least four Diff

the country store. where she stages
a clever movie show for the village
kids. lifts her into the highly
charged atmosphere of Mr.. Zieg-
fields "Follies," shunts her gently
into the managership of q charity
entertainment. wherein she goes
back through the centuries to en-
act a convulsing travesty Of Cleo

sar at his headquarters on the Nile.
and leaves her smiling at the final
fadeout wed to the man who first
rescued her from the small-town ST.

George Arliss in "The Ruling
Passion.o

After seeing George Arliss, the
eminent character actor, in THE
Ruling Passion" at Moore's Rialto
Theater yesterday, one may call
down blessings on the head of the
man who selects the photoplays for
this celebrated star.
THE Ruling Passion" a United
Artists feature, is comedy drama
and for those who feel a certain re-
straint at laughing outright, there
is a continuous chuckle. For some.
especially those who have listened in
sober silence to the dignified por-
tendency at the outset to wait and
see," but after the picture got un-
der way these skeptics threw aside
restraint-just as Mr.. Arliss does
and for more than an hour enjoyed
one of the best pictures ever
thrown on the screen.
Mr.. Arliss has the role of "Jantes
Alden" millionaire automobile man,
whose failing health compels his re-
tirement from business. But to re-
tire, for him, means a deadly idle
ness. and he bridges the gulf by
taking a half-interest in a small
garage. His partner is young
chap who emerges from war work
with just enough funds to go into
business, and the fascinating love
story Is worked out through Alden's
daughter. a beautiful girl doris
Kenyon has this role) who falls in
love with her fathers partner. The
plot" is very simple, but the artis-
try of Arliss lifts the whole work to
high level.
1t is possible, in this story, for
Mr.. Arliss to wear "overalls" and
evening clothes-and excel at both
Edward J. Burns has the role of the
young partner. and does well. Miss
Kenyon shines with her smiles and
her gowns and her pantomime. Ida

Star Cast In De Miles "FooPs Par

Star tAst IN De Miles "F0OPs Par.
adise."
Fools Paradise" Cecil B. De
Miles production for Paramount,
presented yesterday as major fea-
ture of the bill arranged for the
first four days of the current week
at Crandall's Theater. is one of the
most engrossing, one of the most
spectacular and one of the best
acted photodramas of the year.
Not alone Is this amazing film
play with Its Kaleidoscope scenes
and diversified action a study in the
immensity of the motion pictures s
possibilities. but it is also a ster-
ling example of what may be ac-
complished when an "all-star" cast
is really composed of stars. Doro-
thy Dalton. Conrad Nagel, Mildred
Harris, Theodore Kosloff, John Da-
wilson and Julia Faye are the prin-
cipals who lead genuine distinction
to this masterpiece of realistic
camera drama.
Fools Paradise" relates the
story of a vast love felt by an
ex-service man for a little French
dancer who has nursed him back
to convalescence during the great
war and the equally overpowering
love felt by a girl of the dance
halls for the youth so infatuated
with the artistic from across the
seas. Through a hideous joke per-
petrated by the girl from the halls
the youth is blinded and the border
girl assumes the place of the
dancer in his life. The deception
works until the eyesight is restored
through the magic of a great sur
MI
Siam is put under way to find the
real object of the ex-soldier's ador-
alton. Disillusioned, however, he
finally returns to the little Texas
border town and wins back the
love he first had cast aside.

Mae Murray in "Fascination."

Flaming color, vivid romance and
gorgeous and exquisite settings are
the usual elements that Mae Murray
gathers about her in the interpre-
tation of the central role of a
screen story. and while "Fascina-
tion," her latest production, is no
exception in this regard. 1t proves
tc be one of the most flaming and
vivid screen narratives in which
this beautiful celluloid butterfly
has been seen in long time.

the second week of its Washington
engagement at Loew's Columbia
Theater yesterday afternoon. where

Madrid's most dangerous and Bo-

displays her ravishing beauty, but

Mr.. Leonard has brought TO the

such screen players as Creighton

CAPPER DEMANDS
PROMPT ACTION
ON TARIFF BILL
Walsh of Massachusetts
Calls Measure Worst
In History.

In commencing the McCumber
tariff bill Senator Capper. of Kan
sas, yesterday. took sharp issue
with those who advocate q low
btarin in order to enable the allies
to pay their debts 20 the Unitsd
States.
The opposition to a protective
tarfn seems to come largely from
international banking and import
ing interests whose profits depend
upon how cheaply they can bring
into our markets the food and man
ufactured articles they buy abroad.
where production and labor costs
are low and cheap paper money is
the medium Of exchange" said Mr..
Capper.
ssys Delay Costly.
There are indications that the
opposition intends to adopt every
known method of delaying the pas
sage Of this bill in the hope Of de-
feating 1t. Chairman McCumber
states that the Treasury estimates
that this bill will bring in more
than $350.ooo,o0o annually in reve-
nue.. This is approximately $1,000
900 a day"
Manufacturers declare that the
present lack of tariff is costing in
dustry between s2.000.oo0 and S4.-
100000 per day. Taking the mini
mum estimate. II Is safe to as
sumo that for every day that this
bill is unnecessarily delayed by
those who desire to block tariff leg
islation 1t will cost the country
50. 900, 900"
Walsh Scores Measure.
"The people of the country. who
have patiently waited for construc-
tive and remedial tariff legislation
cannot be other than bitterly dis
appointed with the tariff bill now
brought into the open after months
Of secret dickering behind the
closed doors of the Senate Finance
Committee rooms" said Senator
Walsh of Massachusetts,. Democrat
TT is the most Objectionable and
indefensible piece of tariff 1egIsla-
tion in our long and most rnsatis-
factory struggle with this prob
lem.
"Protection as a principle has un-
der this bill been completely ahan-
doned. The underlying purpose OF
the bill seems to be the handing
out of special favors and subcidies
to those groups who are able to ex-
ercise either sinister political; in
fiuence upon legislators or perni-
cious forms of economic pressure.

PALACE.
Thomas Meighan In "The BaeheloR
Daddy

Thomas Meighan In ssThe Bachelor
Daddy"
No less a star than Thomas
Meighan is the chief luminary Of
the bill offered at Loew's Palace
yesterday afternoon for a weeks
engagement, and this time Mr..
Meighan comes to the Palace in
another story by the author of his
former great screen success, The
Prince Chap"-Edward Peple-who
has titled this, his latest story for
Mr.. Meighan. The Bachelor
Daddy"
THE Bachelor Daddy" was pic
turized by Alfred E. Green, who is
responsible for several of the more
recent screen successes of Mary
Pickford. 1t was scenarized by
that noted continuity writer. Olga
Printzlau, and the cast that MIR.

the lovely Leatrice Joy as leading
woman; Maude Wayne, Adele Far
rington. J. F.. Macdonald, Laurence
Wheat, Charlotte Jackson, Barbara
Maier. Bruce Gue-in. the De Briac
Twins and many others.
Mr.. Meighan appears in this lilt-
ing and humorous story of the
power of child love as Richard
Chester. the owner OF a silver
mine. who. nearing the date of his
wedding with an aristocratic girl,
hears of trouble with bandits at his
property that demands his pres
ence. He leaves entirely unaware
of the fact that Sally Lockwood.
his secretary, secretly worships
him. although it is clear that his
departure is not to the liking of
his fiancee
In the South there Is a conflict
with bandits in which the mine
foreman is fatally wounded. and
before he dies he exacts a promise
from his employer to care for his
five children. The young mine
owner obliges and brings the flve
children back East with him. HIS
fondness for the children Is not
shared by his f1ancee, and when II
proves impossible to find a school
for the youngest child. a baby,
Dicks secretary. Sally, agrees TO
mother II. The child falls Ill ana
in their consequent worry over its
condition the young bachelor daddy
and his secretary are drawn into
a mutual sympathy that soon de-
velops into love. A natural Sc
quence of circumstances soon es-
tranGes Dick and his nancee and
the story is brought to a highly
romantic conclusion with Dick still
a daddy but no longer a bachelor
and with Sally as his wife rather
than as his private secretary.
