ANDRE 7ARDLEU WARNS ALLIES
 OF RUSSO-GERMAN AGREEMENT
THE WEEK IN LONDON

nilitarism; French aggression in the near east made the line sound as fl it had been written yesterday; French cockiness seemed as pat as the origi- nal version.
 This Is A true story. The author was Arnold Bennett. the producer, MT. Lawrence Langner. who is hero look ing for English plays for the Theatre Guild of New York. And the play Is What the Public Wants" Bennett wrote If Is years ago. Presently it will be put on by the Guild players in New York. Bennett thinks it is still what the public wants-especial- ly with the changes. The story is a neat comment on international rela- tions, on the public. or, indeed. on MT. Arnold Bennett, as you will.
 The Elderly Gentleman
 It was the Theatre Guild that put on Bernard Shaw's Back to Methuse- lah, adhering to Shaws conditions that not line should be cut out and Mir Langner brought him details Of the rather unexpected success of the play. Besides figures as to cash re- turns he showed him some photo graphs of the actors. Among them was one Of the elderly gentleman who, you remember, sits on the Irish pier ana talks and talks and talks. 1t was the quaint conceit of the Guild players to make this charac- ter up to look like Shaw. What" exclaimed the great Irishman, why 1 patterned the elderly gentleman after my worst enemy" But the pie ture of Mr. Kaye as LloydGeorge he thought so good that he promptly autographed 1t, and declared that he would send 1t to the premier with his compliments.
 Shaw consented finally to permit ting certain drastic cuts-about 15 pages from the interminable oonver- sation of the elderly gentleman and as much of the discussion of the brothers Branabus. He admitted that 1t was the least he could do for the public. But he didn't do 1t without telling an anecdote illustrative of the overweening conceit of stage man. agers in general. Arnold Daly, he said, was once directing a rehearsal of one of Shaw's plays. Somebody interrupted him, saying that a oer- tain line should be said so and with such gesture. Daly Ignored the Interruption, but when the same man butted in again, he turned on him. Look here," says he, I've put on more Shaw plays and I know more about putting 'em on than anybody else in the world. Who the deuce are you anywayT

 Montevallo School

Montevallo, April 29.-(Special.) ) = Riccardo Martin. the greatest Amer ican tenor. is to sing at Alabama Technical Institute and College for Women Saturday night. April 29.
 The name of Riccardo Martin. from a musical standpoint. is always an attraction. The famous American tenor has won a big reputation in the operatic world. Europe.

In The Russian Manner

Marie Kotlarevesky, strikingly beautiful Russian girl, sat in the gloom of her boarding house bedroom in Chelsea, and wrote this brief note to her lover:
 "The miseries of the last five years prompt me to do this"
 Then she put the muzzle of an army revolver into her mouth and pulled trigger.
 Five years ago, when she was IT, she was living on the estate of her family in southern Russia. Her fath- CT was a general in the Russian army. The revolution swept everything away. Her father was killed in a battle with the bolshevists. When the peasants seized the land the family fled and became separated, Marie spent one night hiding in a swamp. Finally she reached Sevastopol and was taken aboard a French warship along with hundreds of other aris- tocratic refugees. She went to Con stantinople and lived in extreme pow erty until last May when she met Lient. Col. Herbert Allcard, D. S. A., R. F. A.. of the British commission in Constantinople who employed her as secretary.
 She went with him to Paris and
  month ago they came to London and Marie felt that finally her troubles were done. She was alone In their rooms, singing, when an official rang the door bell. She asked him what he wanted and he served her with a summons to appear in the west London police court In proceedings against Lieutenant Coloner Allcard charged with unlawfully marrying Marie Kotlarevsky while his lawful wife was still alive.
 They had a long talk about it and the next day both went to consult a lawyer. She served him tea in the afternoon and seemed, he told the coroner afterwards, quite cheerful. Perhaps she chided him jestingly about having Forgotten" his wife When he left her she went to her bedroom and killed herself.
 Hers Is a story in what the west ern world recognized as the true Rus sian manner. The head of cinema firm here seeking for films to send to Russia says Russian audiences laugh at the happy endings of Amer lean films, so that these have to be frequently cut out lest a whole film be spoiled for the audience.

 portant and secondary questions, have devoted themselves during the last years to theoretical and impractical discussions. Methinks this Is one req son why the United States has shown so little interest in the debates and retired into a systematic isolation.
 The Russians, Germans and Kemal- ists have adopted the old way and have made a real alliance. Before compiling a program they have ere ated a very necessary instrument for it's success. They have united bet ter to defend themselves or rather to free themselves from the conse- quences of the war peace. This is serious chiefly because there is noth- ing opposed to them. The Anglo French entente exists in speeches. No political act results therefrom.
 Italy, long accustomed to a Ger man alliance. has not recovered her diplomatic position since the war hence the extreme but comprehensi- ble nervousness which is shown on every occasion. There remains on the one hand, France and Belgium who have only undertaken the mini mum of preventive measures and on the other hand the little entente which dismayed by the lack of or ganizatfon in Europe, has established itself alone, not asking advices but ready for any urgent needs.
 LIoyd-Gecrge Leading World
 Regarding Great Britain, Lloyd George imagines, especially during the last few months, that he is lead ing the world. This is not the case. He has never confronted more difficulties. Unemployment, commer- cial stagnation, colonial troubles ana the like are the greatest in the his- tory of the British empire.
 It Is true that Germany. Russia and Turkey are in straitened ciroum- stances but they are wise enough 10 look beyond their present troubles and ta work for the future. While the victors are discussing mere forms the vanquished are endeavoring 10 group their forces. Their methods will be judged by the results.
 The United States, by refusing 10 go to Genoa, avoided mortlflcauon and derfsion that has been inflicted on the conference originators, but, sooner or later, the course of events will obiige her to participate in the politics which are now commencing to take shape.
 The Russo German Turkish, per haps, fs the beginning of that alliance stretching from the Rhine to the Pa ctfic. the dangers of which Col. E. M. House pointed out to the peace conference here in 1919. When this alliance takes decisive shape the dan ger will be scarcely less for the Unit cd States than 1t was for France ana Belgium.
 1t can be anticipated that these im- ureesions of the latest events in Genoa will result in my being re- preached for anticipating trouble and looking too far ahead. This may be so but I prefer that to coming too late.

 Palm Reach Moved Up
 While Palm Beach was moved up to within 10 hours of Manhattan Island, an average speed of 130 miles an hour is plenty. It is plenty, at least. to bring a passenger seaplane from Palm Beach to the Columbia Yacht club in four minutes less than 10 hours de- spite fog and storms. When you con sider that by train the trip takes AS hours you can see that flying to Florida is going to make a hit with the tired but time pressed business man. At that rate he can commute.
 It was Florida, by the way. with a thought or so for Arizona which proved the undoing of 16-year-old brokers messenger this week. The young fell low was sent to the bank with $122- 900 in securities and cash. He kept about $500 of the cash and dropped the bag with st21, 900 of stocks and bonds. and other knick into the East river. When captured by an 1S-year- old chum. to whom he confessed. the lad said he wanted to travel and this idea had for the moment been too great temptation. He had bought a big knife with a deer's hoof for handle in preparation for cutting grapefruit down south or alfalfa out west.

 The point Is not so much that the boy knew money could buy things. he point Is that once again the hard headed. cold-hearted New York broker of fiction has proved himself quite otherwise. He's so trustful that on his own statement he allowed this boy to carry milnons of dollars in se- curities up and down the street. Scores of other boys hardly in their first long trousers, are being trusted with similar sums every hour of the working day. The shocked surprise registered by employers when one of these boys wakes up to his opportu- mites Is pretty thing to witness.

UNIQUE DANCED PLANNED

At a recent meeting of the Am erican Legion, plans were perfected for the coming big social dance on Labor Day. It is the ambition of the boys that everyone, who attends, will feel they have received more than their moneys worth and with that end in view will make the dance a novel and mirth provoking affair. Jazz will be the music; Re- diculous, the dress and facial make up; Everybody happy, the slogan. There will be a prize waltz and fox trot and for the heavy gentlemen, prize one step. Other prizes are also being considered. Even the tickets that will soon be on sale will be out of the ordinary and the music will be in keeping with the occasion.
