JEATERS PROFIT " AS MARK SHRINKS Germans Lose Inclination to Save and Spend All on Amusements. T BY MAXIMILIAN HARDEN. Germany’s Foremost Publicist. Ty Cable to The Star. BERLIN, June 30.—In the midst of the general discontent and suffer- ing throughout Germany, it has de- veloped that one industry at least, the theater, is doing well. The profits of the season just ending were not so bad ad the country's economic situa- tion would lead one to belleve. Peo- ple whose marks have become value- less have lost all inclination to save and don't stop to ask the cost. They simply buy seats and see the per- formances. The theater throughout Germany is not centralized as much as in America, England or France. A dozen or more of her cities have theaters which are not obligated to cater to Berlin's taste, beccuse the municipalities have subsidized them. Bug in the unsubsidized playhouses business seldom has been better and many new theaters are being bullt. This shows how profitable the busi- ness i, although most of thess new theaters are designed for the amuse- ment of the newly rich. Serious soldiér ~performances are bein; ven by the “People’s Thea- ters,” which for decades havée been offering the middle and labofing classes good drama and music with- out stars but with worthy perform- ers. The-existence of these theaters, wever, now is threatened because v still are compelled to charge omparatively low prices and also are menaced by the competition of the movles. Movies Lacking in Distinction. With the exception of “Friedericus Rex,” which is a military monarchic omance of Potsdam in the great Ling's time, and which attracts the nationall; German movies haven't found anvthing which is a first-class attraction. Since managers have dis- covered great profits are attainable only in America, they endeavor to catar entirely to the ‘“American films” o that they can export their fiims. But even In view of this and the fact that the movies need not be predicated on a high degree of learning among the spectators, it would seem the managers could get subjects that are ot sweetly banal or require the employment of crude, perverse methods of execution. The film has a mission quite as lofty as that of the theater today and it merely corrupts it by degrad- ing all masterpieces of literature in order to make money and still more by demoralizing and industrializing actors. The latter desire to live well, with autos, villas and wine cellars and don’t like to learn a new every month, bs depandent on the moods of a stage director, or be at the mercy of u female star who at- tracts by semi-nudity. Bo they are able to avoid this and still enjoy all their desires through i which don't tax memory and merely take their time for a couple of weeks on trips where all expenses are paid and for which they recelve salaries exceeding those recelved by any operatic tenor. Film stars are paid in dollars and even second and third raters recelve so much that the legitimate theater salaries look like alms in compari- son. Commercialism Affects Actors. The actors now impart this com- mercialism to the legitimate drama which until recently has tried to plc- ture itself as devoted to art alone. This consclousness and its hypo- critical assumption have ceased. De- spite all hinderances, however,' our legitimate theater is .still worth while, due to u few strong actors, to zealous collaboration on the part of managers, and to_the hunger of citizens for classic production Our younger dramatists haven't ereated much as yet and the French, who once furnished two-thirds of our lighter farces and drama, now are barred because of the Ruhr, but Shakespeare, Mozart, Becthoven, Schiller, Wagner, Strindberg, Ibsen, Tolstol, Strauss. Wedekind, Wilde, Shaw, Chekofl and the like still have the power to fill the theaters that haven't completely abandoned art. dven Haendel's forgotten opera, Jullus Caesar” and “Death of Em- pedocles,” by Hoelderlin, who was the Walt Whitman of his day, have been produced with deep effec For the rest, they are snobbish, trifiing with expressionism and a compromise with profitable film hits.

BREMEN, June 30.—Reiteration of his provious warnings agalnst “pre- mature” abandonment of the passive resistance campalgn featured the ad- dress of Chancellor Cuno before the Bremen chamber of commerce in/ his swing around the country. “Every man and woman in the bor- der dlstricts,” he sald, “knows from the bitter experlences of 1918 what would result in suffering for the oc- cupled area and the entire father- land from premature laying down ot the weapon of passivo resistance.” The chancellor declared he had planned at first to proceed on & purely practical and economic basis in the preparations question, but the Ger- man ofter made to London and Paris in thls spirit had not achieved the desired goal. It was primarily essen- tial that the people and the nation bo kept on their feet until the passive resistance program was brought to a successful conclusion. Herman Rodenwald, vice président of the chamber of commerce, in greet- ing the chancellor, sald he was confi- dent Herr Cuno vould succeed in “bringing into safe harbors the ship of state which is fighting hard against high seas—bringing it in even if bad- 1y damaged.” and that he would then all all men on deck to repair the damage and make possible 4 new and honorable voyage.” From here the chancellor went to Ifamburg. BATISH AR POLY DECLARED MENACE Competitive Building Against France Seen as Death Blow to Entente. BY ANDRE TARDIEU. Former French High Commisajoner to the United States. By Cable to The Star. PARIS, June 30.--England's official announcement that shé intends to be- come supreme In the air is fraught with the gravest danger. Whoever remembers the past, and thinks of the future, must reject such a project founded on the basis officially stated by Premicr Stanley Baldwin. The world war overwhelmingly justificd the entente cordiale, vet only five vears afterward that policy is treated as irrevocably damned. This fact, and the peychology It reveals, is far graver than isolated disagreements, like the Ruhr, because the whole moral foundation of Anglo-French policy seems crumbling. Just at the moment that the Anglo- French experts are meeting in Lon- don trying, in collaboratibn with Spain, to solve the ancient and vexa- tious Tangier question, come these noisy speeches in the house of com- mons. They must make the Tommies and Poilus who died for a common cause turn over in their graves. This debate revolves around mili- tary aviation. Britain. which former- ly insisted on the two-power naval standard, now asserts her air forces must equal the strongest nation. Naturally she looks toward France. 1t is declared the number of military planes in the British Isles is inferfor to the number in France. Therefore, it is announced by Baldwin himself that Great Britain henceforth shall have fifty-two squadrons and _the whole empire elghty-two. Though he hastened to add that the question ought to be regulated by an inter- national conference, llke that of Washington which settled the naval strength, nevertheless, so far as the immediate future is concerned, Brit- ain will launch a tremendous air pro- gram with France's aerial strength as the excuse. Justifies French Army Policr. If France maintains airplanes and armies today, it is because she stands alone with Belgium against a Ger- many which has revolted against peace treaties, is inflamed with re- venge and already Is stronger numer- fcally than her neighbors. These British ministers who affect alarm at France's military precautions are singularly unjust, for they should know France is obliged to take pre- cautions because of the non-exccu- tion' of ' the treatles. The Anglo- Amefican policy is the cause of France's Isolation, and this isolation is the cause of her armaments and the prolongation of her Rhineland oc- cupation. That's not all, either, for unmis- takable new threats are coming from Germany That country never ex: cuted the disarmament clauses of the Versailles treaty, even under the dis- armament commisslon, and that body has not operated slnce January. Much war material can be manufa tured in six months and Germany has not failed to take advantage of this fact. ~Aviation especfally has been systematically developed by the con- struction of the so-called commercial planes which can be transformed into war planes fn a few hours. Thess facts do not appear in Baldwin's speech, or in any of the others. That's what puts the serfous anpect on the Anglo-French relations. One might think when reading these fpeeches we-were not on the morrow of a common war, but on that of Fashoda. And the worst is to see the public on botit sides of the Channel follow the discussion with inert in- difference.

G. Gardiner Says Self-Protection Premier’s Stand for Extension Is Direct Reply to France’s Aim of Air Supremacy BY. A. G. GARDINER, Britain's Foremost Liberal Editor. By Cable to. Tho Star, LONDON, Juno 30.—England has been forced to enter on an cxtensive program of aerial development for self-protection. Premler Baldwin's announcement, however disgulsed, is a direct reply to the French aim of supremacy In the air. No British political party is anxious to enter on a policy which, 1 pursued to the end, must eventuate in new competitions in armament. Public opinion throughout England is weary of war and militarism and Is genuinely ready to adopt any measure of dis- armament agreed on in regard to land, ‘sea or air. Until the rupture caused by the Ruhr occupancy. the country turned a blind eye to the military prepon- derance France had adopted. We af- fected to belleve that,the preponder- ance had no relevancy toward the British position. The first feeling of concern was aroused by the French Insistence on submarires at Wash- ington. This passed, but the disquict was revived when France adopted an independent line in the Ruhr. Then attention was directed to the overwhelming superlority of the French in the air. Sec London Vulnerable. It was realized that London, for the first time in her history, was vulnerable to an attack against which no effective means of defense existed. This sltuation was aggra- vated by the knowledge that the French superiority in arms was ex- ercising a powerful influence on the diplomatic situation everywhere. At the back of the Lausanne confer. ences lurked the shadow of France's military power and the entire epi- sode of the Ruhr rested on the same assumption. It has become obvious that, con- sclously or unconsclously, France!| was sasuming a dictatorship In Europe by virtue of her unchallenged military ~ power. This situation rapidly has become both intolerable and dangerous and though public MANY RUSSIAN HEBREWS | READY TO SAIL FOR U. S. Several Thousand in Riga Now | Await Effectiveness of New Im- migration Quota July 1. By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, June 30.—Several thou- sand Russians, mostly Jewish fam- ilies from the south, are concentrated In barracks in Riga awaiting the nec- essa; vises for their admission to the United States. There are perhaps another thousand each at Constanti- nople and Warsaw, according to re- ports received here, but no great rush toward America is expected when the new immigration quota becomes ef- fective on July 1. Representatives of English, French, German and American steamship lifies are meeting in Moscow to reach an agreement with the Russlan volun- teer fleet, which has been granted a government monopoly on the emi- grant passenger business. There are now no particular difficulties in ob- tairing vises to leave Russia, but the steamship companies, pending set- tlement of their status with regard to the Russian business, are not hold- ing out great encouragement to pro- spective emigrants. However, many white Russians and Ukrainians desire to go to America, and the quota undoubtedly will be speedily filled if the steamship com- panles succeed in their negotiations.

These arcthe considerations behind this week’s announcement and Poin- care fully understands that England lias been driven to the utmost limits of_surrender and will go no further. What the effect will be on the French policy remains to be seen. Whether Poincare takes the hint and calls a halt he alone can tell. Much depends also on the result of the long prolonged Anglo-French nego- tiations in rrspect to the reply to the German note Three weeks have passed since the latest German offer 18 received and it still is unan- swered. Belgium is largely the key to this situation. Opinfon is sharply divided there between the Walloons, who are pro-French and the Flemish who are pro-English. The latter have no desire to sec Belglum become a feudatory of France and suffer from sruption of ding relations with rtral Europe. The peril of allowing this deadlock to continue is that Germany will col- lapse while the outsiders wrangle about laying out the.corpse. Were the moral sense of Europe not dead this scandalous delay in reaching a decision would be impossible, es- pecially In view of the overwhelm- | ing conviction of disinterested opin- | ion that the German offer is fair and ought to be accepted forthwith.

BY GEORGE WITTE. By Cable to The Btar and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1923 BERLIN, June 30. German scl- entists continue to experiment with the mysterious radlo wave which three weeks ago stopped a score.of magneto-equipped automobiles on their way from Berlin to Hamburg. According to a report circulating in inter-allied circles in Berlin, this wave is being tried out on rench airplanes, which, against the will of the German government, are flying over German territory. It is pointed out that two planes were forced to land In Germany last week, with the result that the m; chines were confiscated by the Ger- man _authorities. Altogether _five French planes, belonging to the Com- pagnie Franco-Rumania, have made forced landings in Germany. Mill- tary and aviation experts attached to the inter-allied commission here, who have been trying to discover the mys- terious radio wave, claim that it is quite possible that the Nauen or some other big wireless station is sending out this wave and forcing them to land, Germans Make Statement. In connection with the confiscation of these French planes, the German forelgn office made the following statement to the writer today: ‘As is well known, the limitations imposed by the treaty of Versallles on German right in the air, and which forced Germany to tolerate al- lied planes over German territory, ceased January 1, a fact which was acknowledged by the allled powers.
