NEW YORK, Aug. iii—President

culars distributed in Brooklyn, urg-

sent the President a photographic
copy of the circulars signed by “the
National Protestant Fundamental
Christian Association." and reading
in part:
"This election is a religious war.
Catholics and Jews combined against
Protestantism."
Secretary Slemp's letter to Bern-
stein follows:
”Am very much obliged to you
for your letters of August 1st to the
President. It is, of course.
ly impossible to guess whether these
circulars are inspired by soma tan-
atical person. who. with a strange-
ly twisted mind. imagines that this
sort of thing would help the Pres-
ident. or whether. as scouts more
probable. they are -clrculaled by
people who wish to injure the Pros-
idcnt.
"They had never before been
brought to our attention. and it is
hard for me to believe they have
been circulated very generally. Proh-_
ably there is no way of preventing
people with such strange minds
from doing things of this'sort; and
I do not need to say to you that
neither the President nor anybody
with any authority to represent him.

want any other attitude towards it

the new season will be considered
out. There are many such. They
will come from Atlantic City. Ash-

New London. the Pacific Coast.
Washington, Wilmington. the small
towns of New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania. Among those now about
ready to hour the call us "Tho Open

"Love 'em and Leave 'em." and a.
score of others. This does not in-
clude the list made up of past suc-
cesses on Broadway which will re-

yet “tried out." If the percentage
is as great as the press agents pre-
dict. every one will be a. success. if
as great as the skeptical critic pro-
dicta. a. few of them will remain
over the second Week.
Good news comes from Maude
Adams. This talented. popular and
ever welcome artiste, now engaged
in films but not as an actress. may
be persuaded to return to New York
and to the Broadway stag 1f Miss
Adams should be so persuaded. it
will make momentous history. It
will also stimulate the Barrie cult
which of late has suffered. We hear
from London that Peggy O'Neil is
about to carry on in this faith. hav-

IVomun Knows." and is now sched-
uled to repeat with “The Little Min-
ister," both roles acted by Miss Ad-
ams in this country. Miss O‘Neil is
an American girl. beloved by all. and
if she is enabled to break away from
her British admlrors. she may do a
group of Barrie revivals on Broad-
