I ' DULCY Constance Talmsdgc’s New Picture Gets AIL-plclous Start at the‘ Iicgcnt Theater. Constance Taimadge appearing at the Regent theater yesterday in "Dulcy" proved herself the delight— ful "dumb belle." Never in her en- tire career has Miss- -Talmadge scor- ed such a triumph as she has gained in this super First National attrac- tion and before its engagement in this city closes tomorrow night it is expected to have established a new box office record. "'Dulcy" is the Well known play by Joseph Kauf- man and Marc Connelly and its New York run proved conclusively the public favor with which it met. While the play was a big hit, the picture is going to be bigger for the reason that every one of the screen possibilities has been used to the very best advantage to make an at- tractibn in every particular bigger and better than the legitimate pro~ duction. Miss Talmadge- is sur- rounded by an exceptional cast and the auspices start which this pic- ture got yesterday at the Regent. in spite of the inclement weather, in- dicates its pepularity. “Strangers of the Vlght,” Now Play- ing at mum Theater is a photo- puy that will Please. “Strangers of the Night." the screen version of the stage success "Captain .Applejack.” , began its three day engagement at the Rialto yesterd y and went over the top witba Iremendous success. The au- diences who saw it are-talkiing about it yet and enjoy a good laugh every- time they think of it. The picture also abounds in thrills and after the ,picture is over one cannot but help go away from the famous playhouse well pleased. The picture which de- lighted the large scores at both Der- formances yesterday no doubt will delight the audiences that witness it \Vith variety today and tomorrow.

In its closing session the conference accepted in modified form the original propos- als of Secretary of State Hughes for checking this traffic. The question is now out of the hands of the Imperial conference delegates and a formal treaty vest- ing the United States with authority for the search and seizure of British ships suspected of carrying contra- band alcohol within' stipulated steaming distance of the American shore is nearing completion at the hands of foreign office legal experts. No Serious Obstacle. A complete understanding has been reached between the State De- partment at “’ashington and the British Foreign ofiice regarding the main clauses of the document and there appears to be no serious ob- stacle to its early acceptfince by both governments. The treaty will confer reciprocal rights on Great Britain in the shape of granting authority tb its ocean liquor stores into American ports under seal. when intended for out- bound consumption. Lord Curzon. the Foreign Secretary. is now com- municating with Secretary Hughes with the object of perfecting the treaty's constitutional features and making it proof against possible at- tack in Congress or elsew here. \VASHINGTON. Nov. 8.-—Lacklng official advices as to the action tak- en by the Imperial conference. ad- ministration officials could throw no additional light on the specific terms of the proposed treaty with Great Britain. Negotiations spoken of in London dispatches as in progress betwpén Secretary Hughes and Lord Curzon. probably refer to the conversations of Ambassador Harvey with the Bri~ tish Foreign Minister before the time Mr. Harvey was able toamplify on instructions from “‘ashington the position of the United States and point out the specific objective of the “'ashington government. The original treaty suggestion made by Secretary Hughes was in- corporated for the sake of conveni- ence into a draft treaty. Until the British counter proposals have been received in text. comment on the situation is withheld here in of- ficial circles. It is obvious. how- ever. that administration officials are entirely satisfied with the situa- tion and with the unofficial versions of the British proposals reported in press cablegrams. - Two Purposes The purposes of the \Vashlngton government were wofold in propos- ing the treaty p In the first place. the State Department desired to place in the hands of American prohibition enforcement officers :1 new weapon through which they might break up rum smuggling along the American coast line. At the same time it was desired that friction and embarrassment to foreign ships due to statutory re- strictions on the carrying of scaled stores on such ships in American waters. should be done ‘away with AMFGRD COOKING " NEED 0 0 Did you ever wish you had a self-starter for your kitchen range?

I 111191111 11mm passenger 'liners to bring legitimate- ln proposing that a 12-mile right of search for contraband liquor be granted, the Washington government fixed upon that distance off shore as the minimum necessary to make the work of prohibition enforcement pa- trol craft effective. As the British plan is understood here, the flexible rule which the British uid substi- tute for a rigid 12-mile limit would permit patrol craft to operate at an even greater distance} off shore, thereby improving the chances for curbing liquor smuggling. curbing liquor smuggling. Is Acceptable. That such a. proposal is acceptable as a substitute to government oili- cials here is not to be doubted. Nor is there reason to expect that , the United States government will be disinclined to reaffirm the three-mile off-shore territorial limitation which the British desire to be set out in the treaty. Secretary Hughes made it plain to the British government from the start that the “'ashington proposal was not intended to in- fringe on the general rule of inter— national law and practice which sets up the three-mile principle. ', Action of the Imperial conference in approving the revised project for a treaty agreement to cover both the liquor smuggling cases and the question of ship liquor stores under seal. probably means that the treaty will be in shape for presentation to the senate when that body convenes in December. Redrafting of treasury regulations under the ship liquor provisions of the treaty probably will proceed in advance of ratification of the instru- ment. but cannot become effective until the senate ratifies the treaty. The agreement permitting American patrol craft a wider range of activity OR the , Atlantic coast, however. could be made effective at once upon signature of the treaty if the British foreign office desired to take that course. No amendment of existing law in either country is involved and there is no legal requirement for senate ratification of that provision.

The French Ambassador was with Mr. Hughes more than an hour. As he left he said. “We continued our friendly con~ vers'ation begun several days ago.

The Temps says: "Talking with Jusscrand. Presi- dent Coolidge nunif‘osted the utmost friendship for France. The Ameri— can Govornnrnt is equally willing lo aid seems impossible. If it intervenes it will be as a friend to France." In the French reply to Secretary Hughes.
