Newspaper Page TextPAGE TWO WORK ON RUSSI AN PROBLEM STARTS l Reply Os Soviet To Allies Cools Heated Politics At Genoa GENOA, April 22. (By Assoc iat-i cd Press.) —Actual work on the plan j for construction of Russia was start- ; cd today by experts representing the • Soviet government’. Great Britain, j France, Italy, Japan, Belgium, ' Czecho-Slovakia a*nd Hcffiand. Heat- ! ed politics surrounding Russian prob- 1 lems has beer, cooled by M. Chitch- ' erin’s note accepting in the main the Allied formula, stating the terms on 1 which the great powers would re-! sume business relations with Russia, j The French delegation has submit-, I ted a protest against the German re- ! ply to the Allied note in which the Germans stated they would refrain from the discussion of Russian ques tions settled in. the Russo-German treaty. The French contend the Ger mans may insist on discussing other Russian questions. LLOYD GEORGE STILL HOPEFUL But He Is Only Optimistic Per son At Genoa, Says Rickey (From Page 1.) of international bankers to be called later, probabyl by the Bank of Eng land, with the United States Federal Reserve Bank invited to join. Question for Bankers. It is admitted that questions of exchange and currency inflaction are for banking experts and not for talesmen or politicians, and that they cannot be handled successfully at this kind of a conference. The most now expected of Genoa, even by optimists, is some sort of Russian agreement, possibly to be followed by the adption of Lloyd George’s 10-year non-aggression pro gram. A v week ago adoption of this plan seemed practically assured. Now it i is doubtful if France will agree, ■ owing to the Germans having shown their teeth. The French in private talk are saying that the German-Russian treaty is merely another step in Ger many’s policy of trying to avoid pay ment of reparations, and that the French army, with its threat of in vasion, is their only hope of making Germany pay. Sees lOYe-ei act Lloyd George, in a statement just issued, says *'-st without a 10-year non-aggressL . agreement the con ference will be a failure. The British premier may be ex pected to bring all possible pressure on the French to force compliance with this program. It mu l l be said that Lloyd George is nearly alone in his prediction that non-aggression he adopted. No one else is so optimistic. But, as one of his friends points out, he has been accomplishing the seemingly impos sible for a good many years—and he may be able to put this over despite ail difficulties. -1 PERSONAL Mr. and Mrs. W.

AT THE RYLANDER For the first time in the history of the Royal Mounted of Canada, this world famed body' of .Scarlet Riders has leant its assistance to the realistic filming of a screen- drama, namely, “Cameron of the Royal Mounted,” from the pen of the celebrated Cana dian author “Ralph Connor,” at the Rylander theater Tuesday. Members of the Royal Mounted have been impersonated by actors ap pearing in several Ralph Connor stories, but until the filming of “Cameron of the Royal Mounted,” official authority had always been withheld. The influence exerted by the Rev. Dr. Gordon, now a Canadian statesman, and the fact that Henry Macßae, himself a Cana dian director, was endeavoring to presenXh monumental tribute on the Screen to this famous body of men, succeeded in sofftening the hearts of the commissioners both at Fort Mac- Leod where most, of the scenes were taken, and at Ottawa where the offi cial authority had to be secured. Therefore in this noted film drama of the mountains and plains the audi ence behold for the first time in a feature the actual work of these fighters in an emergency. Their skilled work in rounding up revolt ing bands of Stony and Cree Indians and keeping renegades from break ing the law is one of the most realis tic and absolutely truthful film epi sodes that has ever been chronicled. Soul stirring and inspiring in the highest degree, it sweeps the audi ence and the story at the same time, to,a compelling finish of such dra-’’ matic power that even Hottentors and Eskimo alftie will appreciate it just as thoroughly as the average Him tan of American or English cities.
