The stage on which this awe-inspir.
ing. thrilling and gripping spectacle
will be staged nightly. will be be-
tween $50 to 500 feet in length and
will picture the city of Tokyo laying
at the foot of the sacred mountain
Fujiyma, whose wondrous beauty will
be shown reaching skyward as the
background Of the picture.
This splendid scenic setting will be
but background for the gorgeously
costumed pageantry and pompous
ceremonials of the festivities that
will be presented by the 500 costumed
characters. The actors will repre-
sent the members of the Royal fam
lily, officers of the Army and Navy,
priests and acolytes Of the various
religious orders, Jinrikisha runners,
lantern bearers, Geisha Girls, mer-
chant, civic authorities and citizens,
all dressed In that unique and colorful
garb that lends itself to the fancy OF
an American audience.
The night show will be improved
by the erection OF an enlarged plat
form or stage which will be placed
directly In front of the grandstand and
annex. There will be sufficient floor
space to present the most stupendous
acts in the world and also for the
proper presentation of the Ernie

The response has not been confined

PARIS. August 2.-What official

tation," but which is more accurately
popular indignation at the rottenness
and corruption in government, is
seething today throughout the Bal
kanS.
Clashes between Bulgarian peasants

events.
1t is ten years today since Belgrade

trouble pot boiled over. Perhaps the
London conferees remember this an

responsible for the speeding up in

needed was a formula which would
permit Premier Herriot to save
Frances face, and this has been
found by the almost childishly sim
pie method of allowing Herriot to
propose as Frances solution the very
plan which England and the United
States have been vainly urging on
her all this time. AS England's or
Americas plan, no French minister
would have dared to accept it, but
as Frances plan it goes throu gh The
most gratifying feature is that ex-
cept for the ultra-conservative press,
which would oppose any settlement
whatever, there is not single voice
raised in protest throughout France.
Does this mean that France is
beaten? Yes, so far as her policy of
the last four years is concerned.
France at length consents to setting
aside the treaty of Versailles and
particularly to superseding the repa-
rations commission which has been
her fortress until now, thanks to the
majority she controlled in it. She
also resigns the right to take sepa-
rate action against Germany.

concessions without hope of receiv-

LAB0R'S CABINET
TAKES new LEASE
Apparent Success of Allied
Conference Assures Mac"
Donald Renewed Tenure.
BY A. G. GARDINER.
By Radio TO The Star.

By Radio TO The Star.
LONDON. August with the
interallied conference apparently ap-
preaching a successful conclusion
and the session Of Parliament near
| ing it's end, the Labor government
appears now to be firmly seated in
the saddle. with little prospect that
1t will be overthrown soon. 1t is
generally expected that the Mac
Donald cabinet will survive until
| next summer.
Prospects for the conference re-
| vived this week with a moderate
French attitude with regard to guar
antees to bondhoiders. The real
were prepared to forego Independent
action in case of default. The formula
proposed by the French and Belgians
showed a substantial advance in this
direction. The guarantees against a
repetition OF the Ruhr episode now
are regarded as effective, though
they are still not absolute. Intro
duction of The Hague court as the
tribunal of final reference increases
confidence in the proposal.
This commencement OF peace by
negotiation should open a new and
more hopeful chapter in European
history. But the question is still
open as to how far Premier Herriot
will be supported against the still
powerful irreconcilable opposition in
Paris.
This week end is the tenth ami
versary of the outbreak of the war,
and marks the close of the most stu
pendous decade in human history.
Irish Dispute Arises.
While the European issue is in the
balance, another grave matter oc-
cupies the government. The Irish
boundary question still is unsettled.
The privy council has declared that
Ulster is within its treaty rights in
refusing to send a representative to
the commission to fix the boundaries
between Ulster and the Irish Free
State. The government, therefore,
proposes to take special powers to
appoint a commission with regard to
Ulster.

measure The Liberals wanted i'm

servatives, while agreeing to the pro-
posed powers. urged delay until the

based on assurances from Germany
! that commercial agreements with
France permitting German and
French industrial resources to CO.

There is, of course, plenty OF
chance that these far-seeing cal

But that peril is equally dangerous
for all. Comparatively speaking and

America Even if the old militarist' S
