ENGLAND


The English election was Con-
sentative landslide.
The Consei natives II Anly beat
the Labor party thor ghnly but
they beat the Liberals VINO are a
good deal more conservative than
they are liberal-so badly that their
organization probably will go to
pieces soon. d.
Ramsay Macdonald, the Labor
premier who goes out, was peace
maker.
Stanley Baldwin. who comes in as
Conservative premier, is of the old
school of thought. He was premier
just before Macdonald, so the world
knows something about him. BY his
former policies he strained relations
between England and France to a
point where there was beginning to
be talk of war, not Immediately but
as a final result of the two coun-
tries squabblipg. Nor was France
the only country England was on
bad terms with during the previous
Baldwin regime.
Macdonald smoothed all these
troubles out. They may begin again
under Baldwin.

What's Going
POLITICS
CAMPAIGN FUNDS
ENGLAND
ON in World
BY CHARES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer

The United States has been hav-
ing nothing but politics for the
last week.
1t was not good quality of poll
tics. That is, it was dull. In New
York it wasn't so bad, but almost
everywhere else it was the tamest
campaign in the memory of the
oldest politician.
Why, is a mystery. According to
all the dope it ought to have been
red hot.
1t was a mighty well managed
campaign, at .that-on the Repubh-
cans part. The other arrangements
weren't SO good.
At first, to mere bystander, it
didn't look as if the Republicans
were managing SO well, either. 1t
looked as if the Republican man
ayers ought to pep it up more.
But toward the end, it became
more and more apparent that tame
ness was the very thing that served
Republican interests. Just to sit
back and let his opponents talk their
heads off-that was President Cool
idge's game and he played it con-
sistently, from. start to finish.
SPAIN
Gen. Primo de Rivera, dictator
of Spain, has locked up a number
of very prominent Spaniards for
plotting his administrators over
throw.
Rivera got the start Of the plott-
fonso. Alfonso was worried by his
country's discomfort. He wanted to
adopt methods for suppressing it
for which he did not like to take
the responsibility. So he arranged
the "coup" which gave Rivera die
tatorial powers.
Evidently, however, discomfort
still shoulders.
Rivera go the start of the plot
tiers this time, but the situation re-
mains ticklish for him and for AL
fonso.

 Crust-throwing used to be good, but one never hears of it now. The public is educated. There are fewer of the candid beggars who say they want a drink. That brought an excellent re- sponse for a time, but the citizen grunts angrily nowadays. He probably wants drink himself Small children are profitable if they have good story.
 II want to go home," walled one lit tie girl at Coney Island every day for week. When the police finally sent her to her Jersey home they discovered that she not only lived well, but had been the dispenser of largess to other little boys and girls. She admitted that she collected four or five dollars a day. Yet she was an amateur.
 The most successful beggar in town, perhaps, is a white-bearded old man who looks like a saint or an artists model. He never asks for help. Just looks at one in a dumb, despairing, ap. pealing way. The story goes thats he was once clergyman.
 He's too lazy" said the professional from whom l gathered these facts. "I1 he'd hustle he could make big money But he has no ambition.
 Some of the beggars make a real business of it. Scores have been picked up who have thousands of dollars in the bank. One old woman spends her week-ends in her very pleasant Jersey home, surrounded by her grandchildren She plans to send them all through college.
 "She has agreed to quit when cold weather comes,' said an expert. "Wt frightened her by threatening to tell her grandchildren"

 AT THE JEFFERSON Today marks the close of one of the most successful and most popular the atrical engagements in the history of Birmingham, that of the All-Star lief ferson players. The two performances of this talented company in George M. Cohan's Broadway triumph, "So This Is London" marks the end of an en- gagement of 20 weeks, during which time the Al-Star Players have endeared themselves to the Birmingham public.
 In "So This Is London" the company has one of the most engaging produc- tions it has ever offered. Written by George M. Conan and produced by him last year in New York, it proved one of the triumphs of Broadway. Only by special arrangement was it possible for the All-Star Players to offer it here.
 The leading roles are handled by Selmer Jackson and Artgur Byron and nothing they have done has exceeded in engaging humor and fine charac- terization the portrayals they offer. Frank McHugh, the new juvenile, has his first big part and the other mem- bers of the company are seen to great | advantage.
 AT THE TEMPLE Rosemary Theby, who will be seen in the vampire role in Behold This Woman" at the Temple today for the last time, won her first appearance be- fore the camera at the Vitagraph stu dios in a similar part, which other women in the old stock company de. clined to play. It was necessary that the actress handle five snakes, ss the part was that of an Egyptian dancer. Since then Miss Theby has played scores of vampires for the screen. and in this latest release she portrays a dancer of the movie colony in Hollywood. The cast is an exceptionally strong due and is comprised of Irene Rich. Marguerite de la MOtte, Charles Post. Harry Myers and finders Randolf. The story is an adaptation of the novel by E. Phillips | Oppenheim, produced by J. Stuart Blackton for Vitagraph.
