CLE:MENCEAU |: BOOK
. EAGERLY AWAITED
Effect on Pershing's War Role
! Holds Interest in Military
Circles.
By WILLIAM RUFUS SCOTT.

Clemenceau's Forthcoming book on
the World War, on the proofs of which
he was working when he died Novem-
Der %. is eagerly awaited in military
as well as literary circles here for the
reply the Tiger" Is expected to make
TO views attributed to Marshal Foch to
the effect that Clemenceau had opposed
Gen. John j. Pershing's plan for sep
arate American Army in France.
Two statements recently made by
Gen. Pershing are considered to be spe-
cially significant In view Of the rapidly
increasing number of histories Of the
war and debate over the specific issue
mentioned. The statements, moreover,
are held to forecast the main thesis that
Gen. Pershing will expound when his
own history Of the war is published,
though there is yet no authoritative In
formation as to whether he will release
his memoirs at any early date.
The first statement, taking them in
order of time made, was in the message
Gen. Pershing sent from Paris to the
American Legion Arn1istice day observ-
ance in the Washington Auditorium. at
which meeting President Hoover de-
livered a notable peace address. One
doubtedly will be deemed fundamental
in any analysis of the World War
strategy, when he said:
Our armies met the crisis of the war
and gave the preponderance and the
impulse necessary to victory"
Victory Made Possible.
In so many words Gen. Pershing is
saying that the United States made
victory possible for the Allies. This is
a much disputed point. In the leading
English and French histories of the
war, or in memoirs Of the chief figures
of the two nations during the conflict.
the American effort Is not given so
much credit.
When Gen. Pershing says our armies
gave the preponderance he declares
that the American troops furnished the
superiority in numbers and equipment
which turned the tide of battle to
victory, and when he says that our
that they furnished the feeling, will,
incentive, which brought victory in the
armistice OF November IL, 1918.
Being in France when he penned this
sentence, Gen. Pershing doubtless had an
especially bright memory of the war.
The sentence naturally must await
complete Illumination in his own his
tory. but its immediate significance
Is unmistakable.
Inc second statement ndQe Dy the
commander of the A E. F. which has
arrested the attention Of students of
the war was in the comment he made
upon the passing of Clemenceau. Here,
too, one sentence is isolated as of prime
Importance:
"I regard him as the outstanding
World War figure among his people"
To realize the weight of this appraisal
Of Clemenceau it again must be re-
called that Clemenceaai has been ac-
cused of trying to defeat Gen. Per-

of the outstanding comedies OF the sea-

first time next week. and at popular
prices instead of the high-fare charged
by the road companies.
Having to do with contrast In life
as Ii Is lived by the millionaires and
the common classes, THE Little Spit

lions. 1t is built around the marriage
of q chorus girl to the son Of chain
store u1agnate. The boys father takes
to the girl, but the mother-in-law does
not, nor does Tilted sweetheart-and
therein lies the story.

Heralds the Big News.

TREAT events cast their shadows be-
- fore. Manager Steve Cochran of
the National Theater Players, however,
Is not believer In shadows. The one
great big item of news of the year, he
believes. Is the reopening of his peren-
NAL repertoire company. which 1t ap-
pears has made even the great me-
tropolis take notice, and this event.
in his opinion, should be Illuminated
and reilluminated.
Tomorrow evening at the National
Theater, and at the customary hour. the
curtain will rise upon the National
Theater players in their first Offering
of the season. But the mutations Of
time and the ever varying plans Of
individuals have brought about changes
in the roster of the players, and this
years company will present four new
outstanding faces. Interest naturally
centers upon these newcomers, more so
even than upon the play they viii
present.
Mary Newton, the leading woman.
has been favorite, almost q stock
idol. for three years in Cincinnati.
When the rumor got about that she
was contemplating stock work in WASH
ington her public actually appealed to
the ctty'S news journals to prevent It.
right and she comes vouched for as
an actress of fine talents and ability.
She had been very happy in the West
ern city, but she had heard also of
the company that had added to the
laurels of the famous old National
Theater In the National Capital, and
she wanted to come here to share in
its fame.
wilfred Lytell. the new leading man,
all Washington now knows, Is the
brother Of the famous Bert Lytell of the
movies. But he is also something more
than that. Although young man.
Wilfred Lytell has. nevertheless, made
his mark as an actor in many
companies throughout the country and
with the great producing companies in
the movies. He is said to have a gor-
geous voice that has recently stood the
movie voice test and may eventually
land him In talking pictures, which are
more profitable, perhaps, If less desirable
for player Of his caliber.
Both Miss Newton and Mr.. Lytell
have not overlooked the fact that Ma
tional Theater Players are considered
quite eligible to Broadway productions,
and this very fact is keeping frona. the
Players familiar faces, well liked here
who may. however, return when the
plays IN WHICH tney are appearing COM
plete their current runs. They are
very happy to be here and hope tc
add to their theatrical laurels by their
stay.
Besides the new leading players there
will come also new ingenue, Miss
Nancy Baker, and a new juvenile,
! Freddy Sherman, neither very far from
the proverbial sweet sixteen" but
nevertheless, players who have hac
successful careers thus far and who
give promise of better things to come
| Both have appeared with prominent
actors and actresses in big productions

and settings by Raymond Eovey, and
the cast is largely the same as In Med

This last play is considered as one
Of the most remarkable ever produced.

finest study In cowardice ever presented
In modern play" and In it Mr.. IRVINE

that the coward is, In reality, tragic
