Jium of the screen Judged from
the standpoint of the expert the
play is a masterpiece. Dramatic
quality is the keynote and is
sustained by superb acting and
| a careful attention to those all
[ important details which contri
bute to a finished production.
One may takc exception to the
title alone as it tends to convey
an impression not in accord with
the true nature of the play. The
story is that of those who gam
ble in the greater things, the
men who guide the destinies of
corporations and the manifesta
tions of big business. . It is a
story of the game of life cast in
the higher places. Here we see
the under play of the giant forces
which emit riff the industries of
the nation moulded into a story
of absorbing interest in which
love and passion play their all
important part on the lives of
the characters. Nothing finer has
been depicted on the screen.
EARLY ANSWER TO
WILSON’S NOTE
EXPECTED
--- H
A. P. A. Service
WASHINGTON, May 25.—
State department officials are
'expecting that Britain will re
turn an early answer to the pres
ident’s note of protest over the
British mail restrictions.
The officials believe that Bri- j
j tain will return substantially the
1 same answer as before, namely
| ^^_^h£_HagueagTee^un hold
ing inviolate neutral mails even
when the ships carrying them
are >» a belligerent’s port does
not apply in the case of a viola'
tion of blockade. It is also
thought that Britain will insist
that on the right to search the
mails for packages which there
is reason to believe are either of
enemy origin or destined to ulti
inatelv reach the enemy.
