Roberts, Vice-President of the National City Bank of New York and former Director of the Mint, spoke at the American Chamber of Commerce yesterday afternoon. Mr. Roberts denies that the United States was greatly enriched by the war. He says that the paper profits were large but that they were wiped out by depressions of 1920 and 1921. As a result, the United States has shown no increase in
a result, the United States has shown no increase in wealth in the past few years than in any other period since official calculations have been made. War debt settlements must be made, says Mr. Roberts, even if the United States actually receives little in payments and can expect little except from Great Britain. He insists on the flow of private capital from America to Europe on the ground that capital goes where it can produce the largest economic returns and that if Europe uses this capital wisely it will profit. Mr. Roberts dismisses the fear that the increase in

The aggregate reserve in 1914 was 7 percent of the outstanding currency and bank deposit liabilities. Last July 1, it was 7 percent, a negligible increase in view of the fact that the United States is now the banker of the world. The Rev.

Among other things people learned during the war was that as far as farmers women were not to be despised. At a moment of crisis the city “flapper” and the village maiden came forward, donned overalls and demonstrated that they could manipulate a hoe quite as dexterously as the man. It is not surprising, therefore, to learn that, encouraged by such success, women have since gone a step or two further. Mrs.
women have since gone a step or two further. Mrs. Minnie W. Miller, for instance, is owner of Thousand Springs Farm at Wendell, Idaho, and she makes a specialty of breeding Hampshire sheep,—not just one or two pets but thousands of them. In fact, with Mrs. Miller, raising sheep is what is commonly referred to as a money-making proposition. She is said to have produced the best sheep of the Hampshire breed in America, and she has numerous trophies won at many exhibitions to prove it. People of her profession have demonstrated their recognition in her ability by electing her
have demonstrated their recognition in her ability by electing her vice-president of the American Hampshire Sheep Association. Furthermore, the Governor of Idaho recently appointed her a member of the Board of Regents of Utah Agricultural College. A particular example of women in agriculture is Miss Evelyn Smith, who is president of the Amawalk Nursery situated in the hills of Westchester some thirty miles from New York. This is the largest tree nursery in the world. The very latest wrinkle in art galleries has been inaugurated in the Boulevard du Montparnasse, close by the Jockey. It is called appropriately, “Masques et
close by the Jockey. It is called appropriately, “Masques et Travestis”; the first gallery, at least on this side of the Seine, devoted exclusively to that phase of modern decorative art that stems directly from the craftswork of the African negroes. Here are the masks and character dolls of Marie Vassilieff; theatre masks and accessories by Goncharova, Larionov, Foujita, Léger; the grotesque false faces designed by Jean Hugo for “Les Mariés de la Tour Eiffel.” A slant at the display impresses one with the excellent craftsmanship of these local painters. Why all this fuss over the discrepancy of birth dates
Why all this fuss over the discrepancy of birth dates in the case of Chopin? That’s nothing in the realm of Bohemia. For example, the birth dates of Henri Murger, the first Bohemian, are given as 1821, 2, 3, 4, and 5, by the various authorities. It has been suggested that perhaps just these differences of opinion make them authorities. The Indépendants are certainly the busy little bees. Their Rétrospective Exhibition at the Grand Palais will be followed by their regular animal Salon; and, at the end of Mardi, they will stage a big costume hall at the old Moulin

Of all the Riviera fêtes, the Venetian Night at Cannes, which has become almost as much of a fixture as Carnival, is perhaps the prettiest.

But Rex Ingram is spending most of his time touring the coast, in his familiar high-built car, looking for someone to produce a bacchanalian ballet for the film that he is now “shooting.” The ballet is to be performed in a wood.

EGYPTIAN STUDENTS REVOLT AGAINST ORIENTAL GARE After years of litigation, Ferdinand Earle’s “motion painting” based on the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam has been re-edited and released under the title of “A Lover’s Oath.” Despite its present stress on melodrama, that was originally merely incidental, it still holds the color and life of an Arabian Nights story. The settings are black-and-white oil paintings executed in the same size as ordinary
black-and-white oil paintings executed in the same size as ordinary gallery pieces but magnified by the ingenuity of Mr. Earle into mise en scène in which the living actors move. Although they have reposed in dank film vaults for years, these reels have made cinéma history. They celebrate the first appearances in important parts of Ramon Novarro and Kathleen Kelly and the last of Edwin Stevens (who died three years ago) and perhaps of the famous old thespian, Frederick Warde. The technical methods developed by Mr. Earle were seized upon by Douglas Fairbanks for “The Thief of Bagdad” and they

It is a living, throbbing thing that builds to a climax in the introduction to the birth of Christ. It is the spiritual climax in a picture in which the famous chariot race is the physical climax.

He is also the first man to cast well-known players of the more serious films in the comedies he produces for Pathé. Another such is Eva Novak.

Century Comédies, once said indignantly: “Our comedies are not to be laughed at!” And the making of so-called “feature comedies”—of five and six reels—is no laughing matter either. Although often the six-reel “comedy” is practically no more than three two-reel comedies linked together it takes much longer to make. Harold Lloyd’s new comedy will probably reach the screen by spring. That will be a good record considering that “The Freshman” was shown last Fall. But the new comedy was begun many months before “The Freshman” was released. Chaplin has been “shooting” on “The Circus” several weeks—and it will probably be
“shooting” on “The Circus” several weeks—and it will probably be shorter in footage than his recent works. Douglas MacLean is filming “She’s My Baby” and Buster Keaton is busy on “Battling Butler.” Encouraged by the vogue for short films three féminine stars are preparing to combine a trip round the world with a series of travelogues. They are Priscilla Dean, Dorothy Phillips and Anita Stewart. They will write little one-reel plots for each locality and take turns being actor, director and camerawoman.
