BEAU BRUMMEL'
 TO PLAY CAPITOL
John Barrymore Star In The New Picture
 Today

John Barrymore, acknowledged as the screens greatest lover is the star in Beau Brummel," the attraction at the Capitol today and Thursday.
 Barrymore as the dandiest of dandies, throws all his unique talent to interpret the gorgeousness of life, the singularity and dramatic quality of Beau Brummel, who began life obscurely, rose like a meteor to social fame, got memorable snub and retreated to disgrace and pow crty. He is splendid when he ingrati- ates himself into the good graces of the Prince Regent, admirable when he saves the reputation of too impteuous young lady, enviable when he collects around him all the cream of English
 society to listen to his epigrams and examine his cut of clothes, and pitlfu when, toward the close. he becomes { parody of his past splendor. This l' said to be one of the biggest pictures ever made akd ranks along with "Iht Four Horsemen," '"The Covered Wagon and "The Birth of Nation.' However the Capitol has announced that there will be no advance in admission prices

DAWES URGES
 EXPORTERS TO ORGANIZE
Manufacturers Need Not Fear Foreign Compe-
 titiOn, He Says
(By Associated Press

CHICAGO. Dec. 9.-Rufus C.. Dawes, Chicago financier, who with Owen ID. sYoung and others set the Dawes repa- rations plan in operation, declared be- fore the Illinois >Manufacturers' asso- citation tonight that American mer- chants need not fear future trade com petition with a reconstructed and in dustrially awakened Europe.
 "If the volume of international trade can be enormously increased while at tbe same time the purchasing power of our best customer, Germany, is re- stored" he asserted, 'there need be no fear. on the part of American exporters that they cannot meet tic competition of the future without asking any aid of their government or doing anything themselves. except to reduce the over head. and improve the efficiency of their organizations, and thus to reduce the cost of production and delivery of their goods"
 Lacks Capital
 Germany has no working capital, but also no mortgage indebtedness, no cred it but an unimpaired and even an i'm proved manufacturing plantS said MT. | Dawes. "The savings of the people have been utterly destroyed and their rurchasing power withdrawn. Under such circumstances with Such obstacles confronting German industry and skill, there is no reason to suppose that Ger many can win a greater share of inter- national business. than she held in the past.
 "There is no reason to think that without handicap the American manufacturers cannot organize as well as the German in finance, transporta- tion and sales. We have always had to meet the worlds competition on the basis of the American wage scale and standard of living. It is not likely in l the future to be a greater handicap than before the war. Labor in Europe will not be content with lower scale of living than before the war. The tendency of wages even now IS up ward
 Fears of the effect of radical agita' tion, aggravated by contention over rep arations and international indebtedness has been removed, not only by ths Dawes plan, but also by the recent cleo tions, Great Britain, United States ano Germany, Mir. Dawes declared.
 Garrard B. Winston, under-secretar! of the treasury, declared that congress must refuse to commit the governmen to "extend programs of education, goot roads, bonuses and many other project which properly belong to the states, if tax relief is to be obtained.

 Fails To Remember
 "I do not remember exactly how th' room looked,' the witness replied t' Tasby-Smith's rapid fire of interroga tions. 'I was more interested in ger ting out in the room where Forbes wa with my wife than in examining th' aou;Dment of the room.
 '"Then Forbes was not in the bath room with you when you handed hin the money?" the attorney. asked. .,,
 'Thompson was in the room wltl my wife while Forbes and myself wer out" Mortimer replied
 Mortimer also repeated today hi hi story that when he arrived at his hote suite with Thompson he found Forbe and Mrs. Mortimer shooting craps O the bed" ',
