Officials holding some of the most

Internal Revenue, outside of the

lecture is circulating to the effect
that the present incumbents of these

his administration.
The positions in question are made
presidential appointments by the new

BELASCO-"The Master Builder"

The craftsmanship of Henrik Ibsen
and the acting of Eva lie Caffeine
and Egon Brecher combine to make
THE Master Builder" which opened
last night at the Schubert Belasco, a
fine, entertaining production - yet
lacking in the substantially that one
might expect from such a combina-
ton.
1.-The Master Builder" one Of the
later creations of the far-famed Nor
wegfan realist and regarded by many
as rather trivial in comparison with
many Of his other works, evidently
was chosen by Miss lie Gallienne be-
cause Of the opportunity it gave her
in the role Of Hilda NVangel.
If this was her purpose, no one
can question her judgment in, the
light of the results. 1t is a difficult
but a flaming Eva, LIE Gallienne, put
ting her vivid talent into a charac-
terization that stands, if anything, a
bit too far above the rest of the pro-
duction. Hilda, the agmin, the phi
losopher, the child Of the mountains,
who looks up and. looking up, sees
no obstacles to her desires, is an eX-
cellent bit of Ibsen.
Egon Brecher. cast as the master
builder" the great man who under
meath is a cowardly, fear-torn craven,
tortured by the terror that the
younger generation will crowd him
out of the limelight. gives an excel
lent portrayal of a character that
easily might have been overacted.
Only in his contact with Hilda is
Solness lifted from his torment.
Through her eyes he, too, looks up
where the way is unimpeded. Through
her eyes he loses his horror of the
high towers he builds but dares not
climb-to the mirth of the younger
generation that he fears.
The Ibsen doctrine of retribution,
the Ibsen stark realism, the Ibsen
scOfting at the puny convictions of
men. are present in these moments
when Hilda and Solness meet.

NATIONAL-"The Poor Nut"

Awkwardly, with gangling gestures
and wistful smiles, THE Poor Nut
squirmed and twisted his way into
every ones heart at the National
Theater last night, to disseminate the
doctrine that the little inferiority COM
pick which smolders in the best OF US
can be turned into an all conquering
force by proper means of conversion.
The play written by j. G. Nugent
and Elliott Nugent and presented by
Patterson McNutt, is the sort that
finds itself at home anywhere.
Elliott Nugent, who plays the role
of dreamy John Miller, the bespec-
tacled. good-hearted, unpublished sort
of youth who has a highly success
full future In botany looming up in
front of him, Is ideally cast, for he
puts his own heart into the thing. The
supporting cast is uniformly good.
The story is the tale of a youth at
college, inwardly set upon reaching
athletic distinction and social pre-
eminence, who passes lightly over the
fact that his qualifications in the field
of science are really distinguished in
his longing for the unattained goals.
Fighting desperately against his belief
that he is not quite good enough to
make the grade he has idealized, he
while and forgetting achieves his aims.

There Is one scene worthy of more

stage as the runners race around the
