In all his statements to the press,
Herr Loebe emphasizes the distrust

pact became known. AS soon as news
of this opposition and the resultant
political crisis reached the United

him to give to the Interpretation all
that the Broadway favorite did dur
ing the long run Of the First Year"
in New York. Others to be seen in
the play will be Miss Harriet En-
right, Miss Dorothy Stone, Miss
Frances Faulkner, Miss Anne Faulk-
ner, George Martin, Arthur S. Mer-
