For Maurice Dambois. cellist,
gave a concert assisted by Maurice
Dambois, pianist. and both were
accompanied by Dambois rolls on
the Steinway Duo-Art Player Pr

wondered which was the funda =
mental. the real, the true artist.
With program selected for
display of brilliant technique and
understanding of difficult shades of
interpretations. and slipping not at
all into the tendency of modern
musicians to play to the phono-
graph educated, he scored mark
ed success.
The third movement of the Liszt
Concerto for piano and orchestra
was presented with Dambois. in
person. playing the solo parts. and
the arrangement of the orchestral
score was left TO the Duo-Art.
Inc loNelS Sdlht-Sdehs NoHScito

by the artist playing both instru-
ments simultaneously, and II the
piano lacked "a little delicacy in
tone or was not as subdued as the
perfect accompanist. the gathering
was the happier for losing none OF
the music.
Particularly brilliant were DAM

numbers given after the same
fashion completed the program.

MURDER CHARGE
FILED AGAINST
BERGEN SLAYER
George Cline Tells Two
Stories of Jersey
Gun Tragedy.

Edgewater, n. j., Aug. 26.-Georgt
Cline, movie location finder, was helC
on murder charge Saturday after ht
had given the authorities two versions
of the shooting in his home last night
of John Bergen, screen actor, who. he
said, admitted having assaulted Mrs
Cline several weeks ago while they
were in the Adirondacks.
His first story, as reported by
county police who quizzed him, was
that he and Bergen were going upstairs
to fight duel when Bergen whipped
out his pistol. Cline knocked the pistol
from the actors hand only to see him
take out a blackjack, he said. Then
Cline fired.
The second version which Prosecu-
tor Hart said Cline had told to him,
was that the men had gone to an up
stairs room, Cline had given Bergen a
pistol, kept one for himself and told
the actor they were to fight duel In
the dark.
AS he reached for the chandelier to
turn out the light, he saw Bergen
point his pistol at him and he knocked
it from the actors hand, whereupon
Bergen grasped his own gun and it was
while they struggled over this weapon
that the shot was fired Cline said he
was not sure who pulled the trigger,
the prosecutor said. Mr.. Hart said
Cline added that he must have been
drunk when he gave his first descrip-
ton to the affair.
George Landon, taxi driver, and
policeman found Bergen dying a short
distance from the Cline home. In his
pocket was a blood-stained note, read
ng, George Cline killed me-"
Another note found in Bergen's
,lothes and held by the prosecutor,
said:
IF by chance l am shot in the next
,ew weeks, it will be done by a George

Berlin, Aug. 26-The latest idea
here is that when the elections in the
United States are concluded things
European must improve and that, de-
spite previous defeat of German hopes
sunshine must come through the Stars
and Stripes. A mad belief exists that
when America reaches an economic
agreement with Great Britain over
eastern Asia and the worlds oil dis
tribution, she will cancel her European
debts and England will follow suit,
thus greatly lessening German repara-
tions.
This is due to Balfour's note de-
spite the fact that the French marshal
summer heat Everybody should un-
derstand that land of youthful vigor
like the United States, though ready
to cooperate, will not sacrifice a large
amount of her capital only to pre-
serve Germany from the rough treat
ment of her creditors. Germany alone
would benefit Britain and France are
Indifferent whether they pay less
beyond the ocean or receive more from
this side.
For years Germans have cursed
Americans and Englishmen as the
originators of all ills but they now
hope for salvation from them and decry
the French governments association
Herewith. The chronicler these days
can easily believe the words of Goethe
that people always remain children.
although these words, corroborated,
would kill off the idea of democracy.
Yet everybody must try to prep ire
a fit setting for democracy. The first
condition is to see realities not, what

FRENCH ACTION
AGAINST BERLIN
HELD IMMINENT
Poincare Rejects Last
Guarantees Offered
by Germany.

Paris, Aug. 26.-(By The Associ-
ated Press Premier Poincare has
rejected the eleventh hour guarantees
offered by the German government
and independent measures by France
against Germany seemed assured Sat
urday night after failure of the rep
arations mission to obtain in Berlin
the basis of a compromise acceptable
to France.
In well informed French circles it is
considered reasonably certain that the
reparations commission will grant a
moratorium for the rest of the year
with the final German proposals as
an additional guarantee.
The German proposals, handed to
the reparations mission just before it
left for Paris, provided for a contract
between the German government and
the biggest German industriaists, in
Guiding Hugo SHINES, for delivery
during the period of a moratorium of
products of the Ruhr mines and wood
from the state forests. German in
dustry would guarantee faithful de-
livery and penalties would be enforced
against the industriahsts in the event
the schedule was not lived up to.
The British representatives are
making every effort to avoid a direct
vote by the commission because they
feel that occupation of the Ruhr or
any other repressive measure against
Germany at this time would only
Lasten the impending collapse of Ger
many and produce no cash for
France.
On the other hand the French gov
ernment is convinced that Germany
can find 50,O00,000 gold marks for the
August, September and October pay
ments. BY that time, officials believe.
another allied conference viii have to
discuss new general reparations
agreement.
If the commission grants q mora
torium with the guarantees just Of
fered, France will reject the decision
and assure her liberty of action. it was
declared Saturday
night. If the commission refuses
France also will act but
n a different manner. The commits |
sion will meet again Sunday morning. /,

EMBEZZLESM MILLION
FROM BUSINESS AND
CHURCH; SENTENCED
John Guild, Prominent Homo
lulu Man, Pleads Guilty
to Charge.

Honolulu, Aug. 26.-(By The Associ-
ated Press) John Guild, prominent
business man of Honolulu, former
treasurer of Alexander and Baldwin
sugar factors and shippers, pleaded
guilty Saturday to two charges of en-
bezzlement and was sentenced to mot
less than five years not more than
ten years at hard labor" on each count.
The sentences are to run concur
rently.
Although Guild was specifically
charged with embezzling only two
amounts, S37 500 from Alexander and
Baldwin, and $4,000 from the Protes-
tant Episcopal church corporation of
Hawaii, of which he also was treasurer,
it was said by directors of the Alex
ander and Baldwin firm that his short
age there would amount to approxim
ately S1,000,000.
Accounts which were under Guilds
control involving the head office in
Honolulu and branches in Seattle. San
Francisco and New York now are be-
ing audited.
Directors of the firm said that Guild
had confessed to juggling balances be-
tween the different offices and thus
covering up his speculations which had
extended over a period of ten years
or more.
Following exposure of his irregular
tiles in the business world, the church
corporation, of whose furds ard secl;r
tiles he was the custodian. investigated
it's books and discovered that $4,000
in bonds were missing. Subsequently
$29, 900 worth of the missing securities
were found in a brokerage office
where they were held as security for
Guilds account. A demand was made on
the brokers for their return, but this
was refused
Guild is said to have dealt heavily
in stocks during the past few years,
mostly at loss.

, A coal distribution and priority
bill of a similar character to that
under consideration by the senate
committee was presented in the house
during the day by Chairman Winslow
| of the interstate commerce commit
| tee, but after long discussion among
| committee members, it was decided
| that hearing on this measure also
would be held on Monday.
With attention occupied by these
measures and by consultations over
the government operation proposals to
be submitted later, President Hard
ing's recommendation for creation of

entire confidence that the temper of

approval of the authorization without

In the house, however, the aajority
managers did not appear SO .antident,
and Chairman Winslow declared in a
public statement that In his opinion the
coal distribution and priority bill he
had presented would Sufficiently
sound the alarm" for the present.
