Jesus Would Be Rejected as
He Was 2.000 Years Ago,
Declares Famous Chtistus
of Passion Play.
By KARL. VON WIKGANI).
Oberammergau, Bavaria, April 23.—
"If Christ came to earth today He
■would again be rejected as He was
2,000 years ago.’’ declared Anion
J^ng, 'who is known to hundreds of
thousands the world over for his role
as Christ ip the Oberammergau pas
sion play,
Lang made- lire declaration to me
today when I came over from Munic h
to see him. Lang Indignantly denied
an alleged Interview recently printed
in; American papers in which he was
made to say that Germany could
never recover Until she “had driven
the last Jew out*of the country."
“What I said- was that the world
is so tilled with hatred and irreli
gion and the lack ot simple faith that
if Christ came today He would l>e
driven out as He was then and held
up to scorn,” said Lang.
"I did not even mention Ihe Jews,
and I did not have them in mind
when L made my statement."
Discussing an offer he has just re
ceived from one of the largest Amer
ican film companies to go to Palestine
and there play the role of Christ in
i film of “The Ten Commandments,"
Land said:
"I would be driven out of the vil
lage should I allo'w myself to be
filmed."
The total compensation received by
Lang for playing his great role from
May to October, and a hundred rehear
sals preceding the opening, was 31,000
paper marks, or, according to today's
exchange, just about $1.
Preferring matrimony to fdme, the
“Mary" of the last festival has mar
ried and now lives in Holland.

Detroit, Mich., April ^4.—Automo
bile tftes may soon bo made from
common miikweed, if the experiment*
of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison
are successful.
Their chemists, it was learned to
day, .have been experimenting for
some time with latex-bearing plants,
to which group the milkweed belongs,
in an effort to obaln crude rubber
from fhein. IJaw rubber now is ob
tained from trees, which takes many
years to mature.
Other experiments of the chemists
are toward utilizing milkweed to pro
duce resin and other ingredients that
go into paints and varnishes. The
remainder of the weed would be util
ized for fertilizer after Its fibrous
stems had been manufactured Into a
coarse thread for commercial uses.
Thu perennial nature of these
weeds as with alfalfa, affords an op
