matters.
The English better classes are

than let it pass to a daughter Of

their own university at Oxford, are
at loss to comprehend the psychol-
ogy Of a nation which stands calm

For that reason an American
middle-class girl might find hersef

Shipping Board Chairman
Flags Democrats for Petty
Politics.

Declaring that the trial trip of
The Leviathan is dictated by good
business judgement, Albert D.
Lasker, retiring chairman OF
the Shipping Board, yesterday
answered political opponents OF
the Administration who have
dubbed the trip ga million-dollar
joy ride" and demanded that it
be called off.
Puts Cost At $4,000.
Chairman Lasker, after citing
facts to prove that it is the unal-
terable policy of steamship com
panies to give their new boats
thorough trial test, shows where
the trip with no guests would cost
$1O7, 900, and that the 200 guests
will only cost $4,000 extra and
bring the entire expense to the
amount alreaSy provided for in the
price of reconditioning.

Lasker declares that eff the Demo

birth OF a Nation" Showing
Here, Protested by Uplift
Organization.

Efforts Of several local and ma
tional organizations and numerous
individuals to halt the film produc-
ton of THE Birth of a Nation, "
now showing at Polls Theater, have
entailed the attention of the District
police, but a statement from Major
Daniel Sullivan, superintendent OF
police, today declared that no inter
ference with the film would be Of
fered.
This picture has been running
for seven or eight years and, while
IL has been met with opposition at
times, it has received generally the
Endorsement Of representative cities, F."
said Major Sullivan. II think it
would be silly and ridiculous to
place a ban on it in Washington.
OF course any picture or play which
uses creed or racial color for it's
theme Is bound to meets objections
no matter how long it endures. I
think in this case. however, that
interference would be belated and
serve only to heighten interest in
the picture"
A strong protest was lodged with
the police against showing the film
here by the International Brother
hood for Uplift of the Negro Race,
with headquarters In New York.
Following this objection Major Sui
Ivan detailed Inspector Shelby, Of
his staff, to review the film again
and report on the reactions Of the
audience. Inspector Shelby's re.
port is said to have been negative
though at each performance police
executives have been on hand.
