6RIES PLOT TO FREEZEOUT U. S. Allies Said to Fear American Capital in Germany. BERLIN. March ft.—The newspaper Achtnhr Abendblatt states that the allies’ proposal to help Germany economically was brought about by the revelation that negotiations for a *400,000.000 loan were pending between Germany and the United States, and that this credit was to be used by Germany in securing food, and raw materials rrem America. According to the paper, the United States is not to share In the loan which the allies have proposed for Germany and, if possible, the United States will be stiil further eycluded from European economic affairs. -The newspaper said: “From a well-informed neutral source it is learned that negotiations between Germany and the United States for 5400.000,000 had almost reached the polnt'of definite settlement when the report reached Lloyd George from .a member of the British military mission in Berlin. Lloyd George evidently held the opinion that this credit must be prevented. Therefore the allied eouneil determined to give credit, “"the proposal being made by England. “We learn further that the allied countries are determined to exclude the Influence of American financiers from the European continent. The endeavor of American financiers to purchase German and Austrian industrial enterprises made a tremendous impression in French and British government circles.’’ 2,000 Express Drivers to Keep Out of Fight CHICAGO, March S—The 2,200 ex press drivers employed by the American Railway Express Company here refused to join tbo runaway strike of Clerks employed by the concern, it was announced today.

HARK! JACK PICKFORD IS NOW MARTS RIVAL Opera Singers at Lyric—High Finance Movie at Ohio—Comedy Drama at Alhambra

Busy. That’s what the Pickford family is. If it Isn’t Mary it is Jack who is getting into the starlight. Ma Pickford. during the last couple of weeks, has been with Daughter Mary during Mary’s divorce trial. Jack has been busy makin' anew movie. Today the name of Jack Pickford is in the big lights at the Circle., Mary and Jack must coin a lot money for the Pickford purse. THEATERS TODAY MURAT —“Up In Mabel’s Room,” at 8:15. ENGLISH'S—“A Prince There Was,” at 8:15. B. F. KElTH’S— Metropolitan vaude- | viile, 2:15 and 8:15. ivRIC Vaudeville, continuous, from 1 until It. RIALTO —Vaudeville and pictures, continuous., BROADWAY —Vaudeville and pictures, continuous. PARK —Musical extravaganza at 2:15 and 8:15. Jack has added new fame to his name for the work done as Chad, the little orphan boy of the Cumberland mountains, in John Fox, Jr., novel, “The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come.” You remember readtn’ the book? Sure. We all do. What about the movie? Jack Pickford has a sort' of wistful look about him which comes into good play during the entire action of the movie. Chad was a wistful character in the story and it is apparent that Pickford has been able to carry that characteristic on to the screen. Pickford can tug at one’s heart strings in a masculine way. In this picture Pickford appears to be genuine. He feels in his heart, it seems, that he Is am orphan of the mountains of Kentucky years before the Civil war. Pickford fits very well into Fox’s beloved story. The scenes of Lexington, Ky„ before the war bring peaceful memories to the older folk who see this picture. The director has been genuine in these scenes, and the life of that day, both to dress and actions has been faithfully represented. Opinion—“ The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come” has been Intelligently transferred from the printed page to the movie screen. .Tack Pickford does some genuine character work. The pre civil war and the war atmosphere of the south is .beautifully recreated in the movie. Photography, good; action, reasonably sustained; cast, adequate; detail, excellent.

Here is an Ethel Clayton production which must be considered. "The Young Mrs. Wintlirop” shows the unrest there is In some of the modern homes of today. The entire tnovie breathes power and dramatic action. It is In this dramatic atmosphere which gives Miss Clayton a genuine chance. Harrison Ford assumes the role of the husband of Mrs. Winthrop. In this movie play the husband actually has a place. He does not quite rule his homo and his wife, bnt he tries. All Is not bliss tn the house of Winthrop. The wife loves entertainment, but the husband devotes most of his time to business. They fall to recognize the great love that exists between them and have only one Interest In common. Their young daughter Is the idol of each. When this bond Is destroyed by the death of the daughter, husband aud wife are farther apart. They agree to a separation, but are awakened to their mutual love by an old frle and, the fnmlly lawyer. Opinion: The dramatic work of Miss Clayton as the suffering wife is more than adequate, it'a real acting. Well

and was negotiating a disastrous peace with the Teutons. Italy was struggling to recover from a defeat which left hundreds of square miles of territory in the hands of the enemy. French and British forces had to be diverted to her help. German newspapers were bragging that the U-boats were sinking more than 800.000 tons of shipping each month. The German High Command was preparing for the greatest thrust of the war. France was able to give her people only five slices of bread a day. Great Britain was undergoing a food crisis. Officials of the Allies were imploring America for munitions, food and men. Lord Rhondda, Food Controller of Great Britain, cabled to Washington: “ Unless America can increase* in January the quantity of supplies sent in December, lam unwilling to guarantee that the allied nations can hold out.” OVER here there was a coal famine, with heatless days, lightless nights, gasless Sundays and workless Mondays. The worst blizzard in fifty years, accompanied by weather below zero, had overwhelmed the country. More than 200 ships lay idle in New York Harbor, waiting to carry supplies to our Allies. The railroads were so badly congested that a freight embargo had to be declared on all but materials essential to the prosecution of the war. The ruin of civilization impended if foodstuffs could not be moved. We kept our trains moving in spite of the weather. Our cars carried a good'proportion of the food and munitions and coal needed to win the war. It was a victory over the worst conditions of a generation. What our lines did in that emergency, we can do again and for the same reason. We have the morale, the men and the tracks necessary for serving the public even under , ' * extreme difficulties.

rounded production. Comedy relief from the dramatic action is cleverly handled. To be seen at the Alhambra the first half of the week. -I- -I- -ITHE OHIO. Action! That Is found all the way through the photoplay, “Wit Wins.” Florence Billings supplies the wit and action. She makes things move fast when she takes a hand lti the Wall street game. Mystery is also a prevailing element. The solution to the many riddles in the story is not unfolded until the very last part of the play. Miss Billings has the part of the confidential secretary of Lawton, a Wall street tyrant. Her actions are clouded In secrecy, and often she uses her wit to extract herself from daugept During one of the scenes she takes advantage of her nimble wit to evade suspicion of stealing some Important bonds, although there is strong circumstantial evidence against her. She has mysterious relations with the cashier of her employer and is constantly under watch of detectives. There is the usual happy ending. Opinion—Competent dramatic work done by Miss Billings. She has a difficult part, but carries it out well. The mystery element of tiie story is well sustained, and Is not too exaggerated, it Is a pleasing and entertaining performance. -I- -i* -I----"Jl DY.“ Tho name of Judy seems to indicate that Mary Miles Minter must be Judy.

Meaning Norma Talmadge in a movie. 'At the beginning of "A Daughter of Two Worlds" she is a very "bad tittle girl indeed. She Is Jennie, a daughter of the underworld, morally sound, hut ignorant of the higher standards of living. .. She is lifted from her surroundings, however, and given the benefit of a good education. Then she becomes a very good little girl. There -is a pretty romance that lends a charm to the story. Jennie falls in love with a member of the wealthy class, with which she now associates. But at the climax of her happiness she finds that to save the life of one of the friends of her youth, she must give up her new life and her lover. There is a happy ending, however, as Jennie finds that love does not reckon with worldly station. At Mr. Smith's the first half of the week.
