success or met with such unstinted
praise from the critics rs Eugene
ONeill's Anna Christie" which is
being produced at the Strand Thea
ter. So many times in recent years
American plays and players appear
ing in London have received only
passing notice or contemptuous boots
from London first night crowds that
this success touches deeply the pride
OF every American living in Eng
land.
The initial performance of the play
created such a stir that no doubt re-
mains of its continuing for many
months one of the most popular at
fractions. in London. Pauline Lord
in the title role has won a triumph
in one night seldom accorded even to
an English actress. The critics,
usually restrained in praise Of new
corners to the English stage, use as
tonishing descriptive adjectives in
tLeir accounts of her work.
The dramatic critic of the Morning
Post, one Of the fiercest antagonists
of American influence on the Brit
ish stage. declares that Miss Lord is
the greatest emotional actress sent
from the United States in a decade.

cession, strikes and rioting, has
fallen i'll under the strain. it was
learned today. It was said, how
ever, that his condition IL not Sc,
rious.
Socialist Demands.
The situation has been further
complicated by the demands OF the
Socialist leaders. After asking the
resignation of President Ebert and
the Socialist members OF the cab
met they modified the latter de
mand, voting for retention of the
Socialist ministers on condition the
military dictatorship is converted
into a civilian Dictatorship.
The Socialists are urging the
withdrawal of the 10000 reichswehr
troops from Saxony.
The nationalist government OF
Bavaria is still defying the Social.

tanned in command of the federal
troops in Bavaria.
II Is reported Chat railroad
blockade may be established around
Bavaria in order to protect the
neighboring states and to aid in
bringing the Munich government
TO meet Berlin's demands.

eminent officials today took a mos
serious view Of the secessionis

in the Rhineland where the "Rhen

Great Britain regards the Ger

difficult situation which has vet
arisen under the treaty of Yer

It was announced that Great
Britain will not modify the stant
already taken in the note to Francs
that the formation of separate
