Benefit Recital
Given by Maxim KarOlik.
T Asst night at the residence Of
IL DR.. and Mrs. Cary Devall Lang
horne an entertainment" was given
for the benefit of the Russian exiles
in Sofia, Bulgaria. A small but
highly important audience gathered
to hear songs by Maxim Karolik,
formerly of the theater Music
Drama" of Petrograd, and dramatic
recitals by Paul LeySSac, member
of the Civic Repertory Theater of
New York City.
Mr., Karolik, who gave q recital
here earlier in the season at the
National Theater, and more recent
" was heard at Carnegie Hall in
New York, sang many of the Rus
sian songs for which he Is justly
noted. Among these were Waves
Dashing and Breaking" by Rimsky-
Korsakoff, and "Hopak" C"Dance OF
Joy''), by Moussorgsky.
Mr.. LeySsac, one OF the most
prominent OF the Eve lie Gallienne
troupe. who has this season especial
ly endeared himself to New York
theatergoers by his performance
opposite Miss lie Gallienne in Ca
MILE" recited a vastly entertaining
group of short stories, poems and
sketches. Among these was the bal
cony scene from Rostan's "Cyrano
de Bergerac, Bertot's "L'Amoureu
de Colombine" and Hans Anderson
stories translated by M. Leyssac. In
all of these M. Leyssac showed that
faultlesS enunciation for which
members of the Comedie Francaise
and other French actors of distinc-
ton are famous. He also brought
with him such grace of manner and
ease OF delivery that even those in
the audience who found their
French wanting must have been
cognizant of what was going on.

RESTORATION SEEN
IN GERMAN COUP
Steel Helmets Claim Needed
Fifth of Voters Favor Anti
Socialist Move.
BY EDGAR ANsEL MowRER.

DI EDOAh ANSEA4 MOWhEh.
BY Cable to The Star.
BERLIN, Germany, April 22.-The
Steel Helmet organization announces
that 1t has been successful in persuad-
ing the needed fifth of all Prussian
voters-that is more than 5000, 0,000-to
sign a request for a plebiscite on the
dissolution of the PruSsian Diet
II a sober count corroborates this
statement, which Is likely, then the
conservative parties, captained by the
aggressive Alfred Hugenberg, National
LIST leader and a sworn foe of the re-
pubic, have acquired the right-prob-
ably not to have the Reichstag dis
solved, procedure which would require
the vote OF nearly $4,000, 900 PrusSians.

agitation and propaganda and generally
TO snow any timorouS voters that the
NationaliStS and Conservatives alone
represent the future.
Hugenberg Wins Unity.
1t Is unlikely that the plebiscite will
turn out favorably to the Conservative
parties, who even in the recent Reichs-
900 votes
But certainly Herr Hugenberg has
shown great skill in uniting under his
anti-Republican fanaticism the semi

saloon and hotel keepers. who call their
group the Economics party.
This Is considerable victory.
Socialist Downfall Seen.
Furthermore. it is possible that the
effect of the plebiScite, whether sue
cessful or not. will be to focus anti
socialistic feeling so that when the cleo
tons to the Prussian Diet occur next
year the Socialist premier, Otto Braun,
will be eliminated and the police force
in Prussia will pass into the hands of
some junker whose aim would be the
furtherance OF anti-Republican move
mentS.
Prussia since the revolution has been
the shield of the republic. The Social
Democrats have been the stanchest up
holders of the new order The real
elimination of tne Prussian Social Dem
ocrats might mean that the way would
be open Tor restoration. This is the
purpose of the plebiscite.

Borah yesterday let it be known he is
not an employment agency.
Last week he received an appeal from
an American engineer who had been
out of work for six months, to get him
a job in Russia, which Borah did.
Since then, the Idaho Senator has
received scores of applications for jobs
from people who are out of work and
willing to go to Russia or anywhere
else Many of the letters, he said, are
extremely pathetic, and he would like
to be able to help them. but he cannot
