report on such innocent pastimes as
crossroads kisses snatched by lovers
in passing.
Opposed to him is that lusty. but
noV helpless, old humanist Canon
Lavelle. The crippled Canon's op-
position Is weak, however, as COM
pared with that Of stormy. rebellious
Nora Fintry Gertrude Flynn
equivalent In CAROLS play to MAN
lovely legendary heroine whose
hatred Of mean, little men sent her
securing Ireland for a hero worthy
of her love and her vision Of unfet-
tered life. It is great battle Nora
stages for her right to dream, and
incidentally to make a hero of Denis
Dillon civilian CraginO, the weak
village schoolmaster. Her father
fearful Of his immortal soul, deserts
her. the vacillating Dillon betrays
her hopes for him at every turn
but Nora never takes a backward
step when 1t looks as If the combat
with Heavens storm trooper may
become physical.
Mr.. Carroll, who can pull mir
acle out of q hat with the skill and
deftness of q Druid, finds an entirely
approvable one for the resolution OF
his conflict between Father Shaugh-
messy and his vigilantes on the one
side, the Canon and Nora on the
other. Before he does so, however
he draws up reinforcements for the
latter pair in the form Of an out
spoken police inspector, recruited
from the great rebels of the 20s
The inspector, a plain-spoken man
does some almost fancy plain speak
ing on the subject OF the clergy
keeping of his secular grass.
AS the representative OF the
admirable, living, compassionate
church, earthly old Canon Lavelle
who loves his butter enough to sneak
a forbidden baptism past his parish
wrecking successor, is one Of the
most lovable characters the stage
has seer in many a season. Mr.
Kane brings him to rich life from
the slow starting first act to the
end Of the swirling third which
closes with a touching, quiet passage
between the Canon and the picture
of the Virgin on his study wall.
Less effective, especially in find
ing the music Of the plays speech,
was Miss Flynn IN the important
role of Nora. Too, instead of an
angry, fiery defense of her dreams,
Miss Flynn's Nora seemed merely
sullen in some intervals of her stress
with the militant young priest. Mr..
Bate presented the latter as the
completely odious, pietistic villain
who must have been a goading
tenant of Carroll's mind for long
time. Others of the cast, directed
by Hugh Hunt with commendable
skill, who are deserving OF special
mention are Grania O'Malley as the
Canons pugnacious housekeeper
Farrell Pelley as the most despica-
bic Of the vigilantes, Mr.. Cragin as
Dillon and Thomas P. Dillon as that
stubborn police inspector.

Welles-born in Kenosha, Wis, IN

be a genius. His mother, Beatrice

his plea he puts humor which is
broad and lively, irony, pity, ex-

Uruguay Suggests
Pan-American
Protest ON Battle
Says Naval Engagement
Was Well Within
Neutrality Zone
BY the Associated Press,

~ tne Associated Ffe8e.
MONTEVIDEO, Dec. 1S.-Uru-
quay suggested yesterday that men,
bers of the Pan-American Confer
ence make representations to Brit
ain and Germany protesting against
their warships' battle within the
American neutrality zone.
The suggestion was made in q
note to Panama's Minister Of For
eign Affairs Narciso Garay In con-
formance with machinery set up at
the Pan-American Conference on
Neutrality October 3.
Panama was designated as the
liaison point on any action by
American nations.
Text Of Note.
Text of the note, which declared
the battle between the German
pocket battleship Graf Spec and the
British cruisers Exeter, Achilles and
Ajax took place we'll inside the 800
mile neutrality belt set up by the
conference, follows:
Most excellent Mister Narciso
Garay, minister of foreign affairs
and communications, Panama:
"On the morning Of the 18th and
200 miles from our shores began q
naval action which continued
through the afternoon just of Punta
del Este between German and
British warships and which ended
with the entrance into Montevideo
Harbor of the German battleship
Admiral Graf Spec.
Inside American Area.
These encounters were carried
out inside the American area fixed
by the Panama declaration and are
related to activities of belligerent
vessels against merchant shipping
within that security zone. In con-
sequence thereof I make use of the
fortunate precedent which attributes
to your government the function
OF intermediary for transmission of
consultations to beg you to please
communicate this information to
American nations with a suggestion
that the facts aforementioned and
consequences derived therefrom af-
ford basis of joint or individual
representations or measures pro-
vided for in article 3 of the dec
laration of October 3 in safeguard
ing legitimate interests of the three
Americans North, Central and
South) without implying that what
is here set forth affects exercise of
rights inherent in my country's
sovereignty as was established at
Panama"
Il greet your excellency with
highest consideration.
