Constantinople, March 4th.-The Turk
ish Government has resigned. The Turk
ish Cabinet formed last November with
Fethi Bey, as Premier, was recently con-
fronted with a serious situation due to
the outbreak of a rebellion in Klrdistan.
The rebels, under Sheik Said, not only
demanded autonomy for their country,
but announced their determination to
restore the Caliphate abolished by the
Angora Government. To this end they
are reported to have proclaimed Prince
Selim, son of the former Sultan Abdul
Hamid, as King of Kurdistan, and to
have issued an appeal to the population
saying: Your Caliphste awaits you.
No Mohammedanism is possible without
the Caliphate. The present Government
is opposed to religion. The Nati0nSlists
took prompt military measures to queil
the insurrection and some fighting has
been reported. but there has been no.
ching to indicate a decisive engagement,
or that the position Of the Angora GOV.
m was in any way threatened.
Fethi Bey's regime has also been in dis
pute with Greece over the expulsion
from Constantinople of the Greek Patri-
arch, the Most Reverend Constantinos.
The Turks held the Patriarch to that
part of the Lausanne Treaty providing
for the exchange of minority populations.
Greece appealed to the League of Ma
tions and the case is scheduled to come
before the League Council at It's meet
ing in Geneva next week.
Paris, March 4th.-rhe British Am
bassador, Lord Crewe, called on Premier
Herriot last night with reference, It IS
understood, to the permission given by
the French Government for the trans
portatlon by rail across Syria OF Turkish
troops sent to repress the revolt in Kur-
distan. France in 1911 gave assurance
to Great Britain that the use of the rail
road would never be granted for Turkish
operations against Britain. The view Is
that if the Turkish troops are solely IN
tended for local police purposes, Britain
has no ground for objection. But the
British Government is said to feel that
it will have the right to complain II the
Turks use the facilities thus afforded to
bring about a concentration near Irak,
with a view to influencing the decision
OF the League of Nations Council, which
is about to attempt a settlement OF the
Anglo. Turkish difference over the Mo-
sui district of lrak.

Tribute to Colleen Moore.

THOSE who have had the privilege
of making the personal acquaint-
ance of Colleen Moore, star of The
Desert Flower TO be seen for the first
time in the Capital this afternoon, to
inaugurate the Crandall Greater
Movie Sea son." have been surprised by
her total freedom from the supposedly
usual idiosyncracies of successful stage
or screen stars.
Absolutely without apparent ego
tism, devoid of makeup, as cordial
and enthusiastic as a high school girl,
as transparent in her sincerity as she
is charming in personality, Miss Moore
represents the living antithesis of
everything popularity believed of IA
nous screen actresses.
More than most young women who
have become prominent in motion pic
lures, Colleen Moore is distinctly
product of the studio. She never has
played on the stage. She is interest
ing, not only by reason of a rarely
fra nix, buoyant and engaging person
ality, but also as striking example
of the success which may be achieved
through the persistent pursuit of
set purpose.
AS a child Colleen decided that
nothing in life would satisfy her quite
so well as becoming an actress, so an
actress she became, and highly sue
cessful one. despite the fact that at
first she did not appear TO be better

equipped than are hundreds of other
American girls who haunt the studios.
An interviewer, after meeting Miss
Moore in New York recently as she
prepared to sail for a brief vacation in
Europe. following her Washington Wis
it as house guest of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry NJ. Crandall, wrote of her:
apparently this young woman has
not been spoiled by success. Curled
up on davenport, with her head rest
ing against pillow to ease her neck
which is still painful as a result of the
injury she sustained while working on
location in her new picture, The Des-
ert Flower she talked unaffectedly,
with occasional traces of a quite en-
gaging shyness.
Her Chinese mandarin suit gave an
exotic touch of color TO a picture of
simplicity and youth-the flapper
youth of today without it's sophistica-
ton. For Colleen, in her natural
state, looks more at ease with a choco-
late soda than with a cocktail glass,
which may seem a bit extraordinary
for SO notable Il screen exponent of
giddy fiappers."
A brief biography Of Colleen Moore
shows that she was born in Port HUI
ron. Mich, moved with her parents to
Atlanta, Ga, when she was years
old. then TO Tampa, Fla, where she at
tended the Convent of the Holy Name;
next to Detroit, and then, in 1916, to
Chicago and motion pictures

Classics IN The Revue.

John MURRAY ANDERSON may
claim distinction as the producer
who was first to see the possibilities
in the classics for a revue number.
In 1922 he presented Oscar Wilde's
THE Nightingale and the Rose" and
from that time to this he has made
a practice of using in his productions
numbers culled from the classics
Among others, he has used The
Happy Prince" another of Wilde's
fantasies, and, in the new Music Box
Revue, delightful excerpt from Lewis
Carroll's alice in Wonderland.
''The field is unlimited" says Mr..
Anderson, "the American public evil
IDENTIFY reads and loves the classics.
When Irving Berlin and I were talk
ing over the Alice in Wonderland
number for this years Music Box Re
vue. | was. in my own mind, little
bit skeptical as to whether or not the
average American audience would
recognize the ever-lovable characters
from Lewis Carrolls masterpiece.
Berlin was confident they would, and
it turned out to be so. No sooner does
Alice walk through the looking
glass into the lovely palace, and
the familiar characters appear, than
the audience begins to applaud. They
all recognize at the Mad Hatter's Tea
Party 'Tweedledum and Tweedledee,
the Duchess the Walrus and the
Carpenter the March Hare etc.
THE hardest part of presenting
such a scene lies in so concentrating
the action, within the short space of
about seven minutes, as to hold the
interest of the audience throughout.
You can throw on the characters willy
nilly, but unless you give them bust
ness in accord with the music and the
sentiment Of the story, the number
means nothing. Alice was compar-
atively easy, because Irving Berlin s
delightful music and lyric made il
so. He seems to have expressed in
music the very ideas which Lewis
Carroll expressed in words. The BroX
Sisters tell the story in the lyric
of the song; the music and action,
largely carried out by Ula Sharon as

Would Be an Architect.

Mo sociologist has yet fathomed the
4 peculiar twist in successful men,
who, in spite of fame, glory and for
tune, aspire to work in professions
other than those in which they have
reached achievement. Owen Moore,
one OF the screens successful actors.
starred in the Trio production, go
Straight regrets that he did not be-
come an architect, 80 that he might
leave behind him some magnificent
structure to posterity.
Acting" says Moore, lis a won
derful profession. But as far as the
actor is concerned, it is not endur-
ing. The work of an architect in
comparison is magnificent. His brain
evolves a wonderful structure - a
grand building. a church, an Office
building, a hotel or a home. The
actor is generally forgotten after a
few years. but that structure of the
architects will remain for future gen
erationS to enjoY."

New Face for Screen.

DOBERT McWADE, famous stage
actor, who has been playing in
New York for many years, has joined
the ranks of filmdom. William de
Mile has signed him for New
Brooms."
Mr. McWade has not been in Los
Angeles for 20 years.
Then there was no Hollywood" he
said. LAS I remember. this part of
the city was mostly one field of mus
tard stalks after another. Pasadena
was the place every one was talking
about then.

Is Quite Human.

ERNEST LUBITSCH had an oppor
- tunity recently to show his skill
in directing unexpected situations. His
early film success was built largely on
the adroit manner in which he han
died spectacular scenes, ii is declared.
A few days ago a fire not written
in the story started at Mr.. Lubitsch's
Beverly Hills home. Aside from the
value of the house, it's furnishings in
clude many rare articles from the
European home of the director, and
thousands of souvenirs of his profes-
sional career abroad.
Mr. Lubitsch behaved like human
being as we'll as a director. it is
claimed. He called up the Beverly
Hills Fire Department and they put
out the blaze without serious dam
age.
