James Whate; who directed "Journey's End," saw five years war service and was held prisoner by the Germans for two years.

Colin Clive, original "Cap- tain Stanhope of the Prince of Wales Theatre Company, and loan ed to Tiffany to create the part en the screen, was too young to have seen actual war service, but, in spite of his youth, he was a cadet at Sandhurst, awaiting his chance to be called to the colours.

Ten catchy song numbers were presented in this special produc tion, four of which were written especially for the screen version of the play. The other six numbers were used in the footlight presenta tion of the original story, called

THE WANDERER'S DESIRE.

Where the faint murmuring of

Reens the whispering of the

Fretting the shore with languorous
sound.

For I have wandered for and wile, O'er all the World; from North
to South, From the Horn to Greenland's
steel-grey tide, From ang brush to Sahara's
drouth.
And I have tired of foreign parts,
And the tinsel glamour of the
East,

And long for honest English hearts, And English talk when work-
has ceased.
Give me the lazy cowslip's smile,
The Jush grass and the standing
kine,
And I'll sit, knees-up, on an Eng

Nor wish the Garden of Eden

Give me the tints of an English Oak In the parkland of an English
Shire,
And I'll long no more for the City's

Or the desert's glory of crimson

The hearing began with an objec- tion by the defending counsel, who argued that the representatives of the ex-Kaiser-who was not present in person-were not his representa- tives in the eyes of law, because the ex-Kaiser had signed a power! of attorney with a false name, as William, Emperor and King," a title (a which he had no right.
The ex-Kaiser's counsel jumped up, his face flushed with anger. For me he is still my Kaiser," he shouted, placing his hand on his heart, a gesture which provok- ed laughter from the crowded gallery.
The judge, however, overruled the objection because, the Dutch notary who had made out the power of attorney, had in the correct repub lican fashion styled the ex-Kaiser as "William Prince, of Prussia,”
Dr. Fabian, the eminent Berlin barrister briefed by the newspaper, Bid that the ex-Kaiser had inherit- ed £500,000 worth of Krupp deben- tures from his grandfather.
The intimate intcrosts of the ex- Kaiter in the Krupp concern, Dr. Fabian declared, were shown by the fact that he instructed his Am. basandors to exert their influence to procure foreign orders for the Krupp concern.
