THEATRES
Ditnlas Theatre

Sir Hall Gaines story of 1.-THE
Christian has as vital an application
to the life of today as it had when
first published more than a quarter
of a century ago. This was proved
last night at the Ditmas theatre
where Goldwyn presented it's big
super-feature based on the Hall
Game story, directed by Maurice
Tourneur. Both producer and di-
rector deserve the thanks Of the pic
ture-going public for the splendid
mounting, casting and directing of
the picture. 1t is one of the fine
film events of the year and should
not be overlooked by anyone seeking
entertaining film story, or a pic
ture that stands out for the art and
intelligence which were brought to
bear upon its production.
Tourneur is known as one of the
most capable directors in the bust
ness and he has put every bit of his
knowledge and technical skill into
making THE Christian" II he had
done nothing else he would rank
at the top of his profession from this
picture alone. With his technical
staff and the principal players. y
Tourneur photographed the exter-
Tors in London and on the Isle of
Man to get absolutely correct atmos-
phere. The author of the novel ac-
companied him and put his know
ledge of Mans manners and customs
at the directors disposal.
One of the biggest spectacular
features of any recent film is the
scene III Trafalgar Square when John
Storm is attacked and MORALLY
wounded by a mob of London hood
The handling of the mob, the
lighting of the Square and the vivid
ness of the acting were excellently
done.

PARIS, October 5.--"When Germany
Is completely convinced that neither
the United States nor England will
again intervene in European affairs
she will that day organize a new war
against France"
That was the final summing up of
the present political situation by Gen.
Gouraud at the weekly luncheon in
Paris Of the Anglo-American Press
Association. Frances one-armed
hero-general, who has come back
radiant from his visit to the United
states to resume the military govern
orship of Paris, today talked simply
as a keen,s calculating soldier and
spokesman for France. Conseouently
MS words may be considered some
what as of an official military impor-
tance.
Grateful to United States.
The general voiced his profound
gratitude for the numerous tributes
America had paid to France, but ex-
planned that he could only sneak in
the United States as became an Off
cial guest.
Il could not turn my pleasant vow
age into tour of French propa-
Ganda,' he said. However, In view
OF the events in Germany, we can
speak frankly of the future.
recall especially now the words
OF Senator Hiram Johnson when he
returned from Europe. He declared
that never again would an American
soldier set foot on the soil of Europe
think 1t would have been better if
the senator had not made that state
ment.
Il know from German officers them
selves that the European war would

many had known in advance that
England and the United States were
coming to aid France. 1t is the same
today. Germany will make war again
II she is certain that America will
disinterest herself in Europe, but she
VIII not make war If she is doubtful
on this point"
Need of Assurances,
Gen. Gouraud declared he was not
crucizing Americas policy, but ad led
that just such assurances would be
interpreted by Germany in her own
way.
In America l was happy to see
everywhere American and French
hags intertwined," he said. 1T ap-
pears that they never look SO well
as when side by side, but there is
another combination, and only one.
that will guarantee peace in the world
the three emblems of America, Eng
land and France. They should not be
separated, they should be together
today as in the war, when their val
liant troops fought by our eide. Such
is the only guaranty of peace today"
Gen. Gouraud emphasized the
French Ruhr policy as absolutely
honorable.
I'VE are not going to stay so long
In Germany that we will annex the
Rhineland." he said. I'VE are going to
remain there, however, until damages
are paid. 1t does not devolve upon
old men, widows and fatherless chill
dren to rebuild the homes in Frame:
Germany must do that. The French
government is going to enforce the

Germans in the Inited States, is not
