Discussing debt cancellation, Mellon
told Peabody that "if these foreign

AS a matter of equity, Mellon said,
that France. Belgium and Italy. the
only nations besides Great Britain to
get loans during the war, actually
will repay to this nation an amount
equal only to their loans received
after the armistice.

LATEST NE|LAN FILM
 REPORTED TO BE \
 GREAT COMEDY DRAMA
NOTED DIRECTORS "MIkE" IS AN ORGY OF MlRTH AND
 THRILLS

The Marshall Neilan of the old days of "Dinty," "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" and Minnie" is back!
 His latest picture Mike" which is playing at the Liberty theatre to- night. Tn it Neilan again reverts to the type of picture that made him famous as a director. His famous sense of humor, his Irish wit, sprink- led with generous supply of heart interest, are all in evidence.
 The entire story covers a period of only two days in the lives of an old section hand, his three young child ren, his elder daughter, Mike, her sweetheart, and the inhabitants of the little desert town in which they live. With these characters, Neilan has made picture that for sheer .humor and thrills challenges any ever produced. In fact, when the au- dience is not doubled up with laugh ter it. is gripping it's individual thea tre chairs with suspense.
 Charlie Murray, that 1oyable old character actor, plays Clancy" the father of Mike, and is as Irish as his name. Never has he appeared to such advantage. With Murray is one other noted comedian, Ford Sterling as Schultz" Both contribute to the general fun of the picture, playing their roles in all seriousness, thus making them doubly funny.
 Neilan introduces new find as Mike in the person of the piquant Sally O'Neill. She exhibits a rare beauty and an individuality that will carry her far. William Haines plays opposite her as Harlan" in his usual capable manner.
