REED HITS HOOVER
. ON VOTING RECORD
Missourian Also Repeats Al
legations About Wheat
Pricing in War.

BY the Associated Press.
GARY, Ind, October 3o.-Senator
James A. Reed invaded the Calumet
Industrial district, Indiana Republican
stronghold, last night and unleashed
two hours and thirty minutes of ora
tory assailing Herbert Hoover and
pleading for religious tolerance.
Senator Reed used as part Of his
challenge of Hoover's qualifications fer
the presidency quotations he attributed
to Republican leaders, among them the
vice presidential nominee, who. Reed
said, had described Hoover as utterly
unfit to hold office" last June at the
Republican convention. He said if
Hoover was not a British subject he
was so near to one they had to get a
certificate to show that he wasn't"
Senator Reed charged that Hoover
waited until he was IS years old to
cast his first ballot as an American
citizen, after spending 23 years abroad"
and he spoke of the Republican nomi-
nee as "a British Liberal, who changed
to an American Democrat after re-
turning from abroad. only to become
later a Republican and his party's
choice for President"
The Missouri Senator repeated
charges that Hoover had fixed the price
of wheat during the war and sought
to hold it down, making the farmer
buy his goods at war level prices with
out being permitted to sell at uar level
prices"
The Senator appealed for religious
tolerance, citing the part Cat. 4olicS, Jews

activities of q vampire who sometimes
takes the form Of werewolf, some
times q huge bat, and sometimeS-but
that would be giving the mystery away.
All that good old "hokum," such as the
baying of dogs as they get the scent
of the werewolf, the terrifying howl of
a maniac, suddenly extinguished lights,
sliding panels in walls and the shrill
shrieks of the vampires Victims is
brought into play with such a nerve
wracking effect that often times a
scream on the stage seemed to find its
echo in the audience.
"Dracula" is melodrama at its high
est but without the cheap heroics that
make much of melodrama ridiculous
The superstition that lies more or less
dormant in most of us Is singled out
and played upon until 1t Is almost impos-
siDle to believe that vampires do not
exist. Three characters stand out.
Prof. Van Helsing, played by Edward
Van Sloan: Count Dracula, portrayed
by Robert Huntley, and Renfield, the
maniac, played by Bernard Jukes.
These three dominated the play and
their roles seemed really to live. It Is
Van HelSing to whom not only the cast
but even the audience seems to turn
for riddance Of the horror that stalks
Wy ulSIV, SIukIIlB lCS 1anBS lnUO the neck
of Its victim. drawing forth its life blood
and turning normal human into a
creature Of loathsome activities.
To disclose the identity of the yam-
pire would be unfair to those who are
to see the play. Suffice 1t to say that
even when the vampire Is revealed, the
play carries on through two more acts
with unabated interest, ending in
final scene that led one auditor to ex-
claim: Lets go out and find nice,
clean murder and get this of our
minds"
Margot Lester, who played Lucy
Seward victim of the vampire at the
time Of the story and daughter Of DR..
Seward, at whose sarlitarium the action
takes place, was most convincing, and
her dramatic work was excellent. 9th
ers in the cast included Theda Fyler as
the maid, Terrence Neill as Jonathan
Harker, Herbert Bunston as DR.. Sew
ard, Carl Reed as Butterworth and
Julio Brown as Wells.

ADJUSTMENTS

Standing securely in a position OF
pre-eminence among English-speaking
actresses, Ethel Barrymore meets one
of the severest tests the theater has to
offer: the personal and sole response
bility for the favor in which a play is
to be held. It was in this city that
Ethel Barrymore made her stage debut
in a pictuorial fragment by Clyde Fitch.
1t is far cry from Captain Jinks' to
THE Kingdom of God"
This play is different indeed from
Ebsmith or Midchannel, which made
the recent Constant Wife," defiant as
it was of usual assumptions Of moral
restraint, appear innocent In COM
parison.
"The Kingdom of God" is in its orig
inal purport a work of the highest
idealiSm: and the actress gives to 1t
so much Of emotional fervor as to
breathe an intent to consecrate great
talent to the best that is in the theater.
It is to Ethel Barrymore, single-hand-
ed, that the play owes its appeal. What
ever may have been the poetic con-
sistency of the Spanish, original by
Martinez Sierre, the English adaptation
affords little assistance to her vital and
sympathetic characterization. A speech
becomes a discourse and the response
even when uttered by minor role
makes palpable struggle to expand it
self into a harangue.
It remains for Sister Gracia to bring
beautiful idea into flower amid
wilderness of words.
The normal reason for Sister Gracia's
remuneration of girlhood Joy and wom-
ans happiness, in order to care for the
poor and the unfortunate, is not
studiously explained. Yet the urge to
self-Sacrifice once announced is re-
morselesSly maintained.
There is a glow of romance in the
scene between the physician and the
woman who loves humanity far more
than herself: a fleeting, colorful glow;

the twilight Of q life devoted to the
children-children In the arms of
mothers and children who go on
through the passing years, still chill
dren. Fleeting as 1t Is, the love scene
is the great moment Of the drama.
Told with poetic fiuency this would
be strange story of love that defeats
itself and asks no gratitude from the
hapless ones who are aided by the re-
nunciation, even against their will. The
contributory characters suffer from the
coldnesS of phrase. The central role
brings depth Of emotion, even unto
tears, to render one figure In a diffuse
picture outstanding and truly sublime.
There are many admirable delinea-
tons; none sufficiently assertive to share
for moment equal interest with the
devotee to love Of humble humanity. In
commercial circles, references are made
to a 'one-man job" This is to be about
a one-wor1an job.
One of the fascinations Of this pres
entation lies in the fact that 1t is un-
compromisingly unmercenary. A scene
that might easily be assembled with old
material inexpensively acquired is set
up in massive beauty with precise ap-
plication to the present themes. A
cast. many Of whose members disap-
pear from act to act becomes impress
sive in numbers though not always In
individual expression. Sincerity pro-
claims itself when so elaborate a mech
anism is created for the development of
so delicate theme.
The audience last night was typicaliy
an Ethel Barrymore public. A bene-
At for George Washington University
beheld the boxes decorated with GreeS
letter banners and combined local
sentiment in the salutations for the star
in affectionate acclaim.
