Vandenberg Admits Imposition Might Constitute ‘First Step to War. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (U: Boe
Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg (R. Mich.) declared today that imposi-|
| tion of an embargo against Japan
might constitute “the first step toward war,” but warned Japan not
‘| to ignore possibility -of such action.
Mr. Vandenberg’s statement followed a charge by Chairman Key Pittman of ‘the Senate Foreign Relations’ Committee that Japan was attempting to interfere with Congress. Mr. Pittman charged that the Japanese military was “insensitive” to American treaty rights in the Far East.
Treaty Ended Jan. 26
Mr. Vandenberg—author of the Senate resolution calling for abro-
gation of the U. S.-Japanese commercial treaty—described the treaty denunciation as “relatively a pacific alternative” to the embargo pro-
Mr. Pittman, He said the embargo proposed “by important Administration Senators distinctly would have been the longest step to war since 1915. My resolution was an alternative.” Mr. Vandenberg introduced his treaty cancellation resolution last summer.

- Before the Senate took any action, the State Department served Japan a notice of cancellation, which be-

Feels Embargo. Possible
Mr. Vandenberg’s views were contained in a letter addressed to Walter Lippman, newspaper commentator, ‘who has described the Vandenberg resolution as designed to force ‘Japan to retreat from China and a preliminary to imposition of an embargo. “Whatever our sympathies may be,” said Mr. Vandenberg, “and whatever our sense of deep outrage over the conquest of China, our official responsibility as a matter of foreign policy is not to force Japan to retreat from China; it is to protect American interests.” Nonetheless, he said, the United States “mdy come to an embargo and Japan is dilly advised if it ignores this hazard.”

to have you see me in it. But at dinner one of my friends dropped gravy on it, so I went all the way home to change to this one.” Mr. Barrymore looked her over. “It is gorgeous, my dear,” he said. “You are like a breath of spring.” Whereupon he kissed: her. Later they left together, with Barrymore confiding that it was a “reconciliation.” Events of the evening began in Mr. Barrymore's dressing room immediately after the show. Miss Barrie, who had had a part in the play—the role of one of Barrymore’s stage ‘daughters—until he spanked her harder than the script called for in St. Louis and she walked out on both ‘him and the play, had been a spectator at the Broadway opening. ‘With the final curtain, she hied to his dressing room. There she encountered the Great Profile’s 17-year-old daughter who, according to the press agents’ schedule, was to have celebrated the evening with him at the Monte Carlo. Miss Barrie ignored her stepchild and began railing Barrymore: “After all the months I put into this play and then to see somebody. else in my place. . . .” Miss Barrymore made a refort to Miss Barrie. They shouted at each other a few minutes, then Miss Barrymore stormed from the room and told stagehands: “If it comes to blows it will come to blows and I'm ready to fight her . .. I'm not going to let him go out with that woman if it takes all night.” Then she rushed back into the fray. She evidently won the first sound because Miss Barrie left first. Soon father and daughter emerged and went to the night club, as scheduled. Inthe party .were Herbert Bayard Swope and George Jean Nathan. Scarcely had they settled around their table when the door was flung open to admit Miss Barrie and party. They got a table nearby and the crowd, knowing what to expect, edged as near as. possible. Among the spectators were Tyrone Power and his wife, Annabella. In the entire room, only Barrymore seemed oblivious. He concentrated on glasses of scotch and soda and by the time Miss Barrie got her chance to move in, he was phelgmatic. Miss’ Barrymore had left the table to dance, the ‘others had wandered away, and the great lover sat alone. He looked around and his estranged fourth wife was at his side. She sat there, rooted seemingly, the rest of the evening. Miss Barrymore came back and gave her a fierce look. Mr. Barrymore, at that point, was saying to reporters: “What's there to talk about? After all, Elaine and I are good friends.” = For two hours Miss Barrymore and Miss Barrie faced each other across the table, neither budging. It was the daughter who gave way.

Englis, with the parting remark: “I'm not responsible for anything that happens: now.” ; Miss arrymore is the child of her father’s first marriage to Michael
Strange, the novelist. ‘She is a beginning actress and recently met her father for the first time since ‘she was a baby. Their plays were .showing in adjoining theaters in Chicago. In contrast with the night club scene, Mr. Barrymore's return to Broadway last night ‘had been regarded as almost shockingly sober and demure. His ad libbing had consisted of nothing more bawdy than the singing of a few verses of the nursery rhyme, “The Owl and the Pussy Cat,” in the second act; and when time ‘came for his curtain speech, and the audience was holding to its seats in anticipation, the great one let them down with this oration: “This is a memorable occasion and the happiest experience for me to be back on the stage in New York.” Greater things had been expected of Barrymore's return to Broadway after 18 years—that was when he quit playing Hamlet. He arrived at the old Belasco Theater a half hour early, accompanied by a male nurse, ran through his role with almost no innovations, and had the tables turned .on him and - was himself taken back when during his curtain speech, an intruder sprang upon the stage, announced that he was the “Ghost of Hamlet,” and tried to throw his arm around a Barrymore shoulder. Barrymore stepped aside and regarded him quizzically. The “ghost,” later identified as one Bert Freeman of Brooklyn, an alleged Barfymore impersonator, wore black tights, green jerkin and orange shoes. He was dragged from the tootlights just as the curtain was rung down. Back again to make his uninterrupted curtain speech, Mr. Barrymore announced that “my friend is being sat upon by the biggest electrician in New York.” (The “ghost” ended the night in ‘Jail ¢ on
