Robert Warwick in "The Man of the Hour" at the Andersen .Monday. George Broadhurst wrote one of the greatest successes the American stage has ever known when he com pleted "The M?n of the Hour." which ia now to be seen as a World Film Corporation feature film, with Rob bert Warwick in tko title role of the incorruptible mayor. The particular "graft" that Mr. Broadhurst attacked ia a scheme on the part of a machine "boss" and a schrewd financier to put a bill through the New York City council, which would give to a traction com pany a group of perpetual franchises. The passage of that bill would be a great pecuniary gain for many par ties, while ii ties the city, up forever so that competition for franchise would be unknown. Electio . ls near at hand, and In looking abo.it for a suitable candidate for the mayoralty, who could "be handled", young Gar rison, who has earned for himself a large fortune, is selected os the most likely man. The ycung ma;, ls in love with the niece of the financier, and she has told him that before she could promise to become his wife, he must prove himself and do some thing. The mayoralty is his oppor tunity. Ho accepts the nomination, and after a strong fight is elected. Thc franchise bill In the course of time pusses the council and comes to the mavor for his signature. But Garrison, realizing that it is a steal steadfastly reiuses to sign. All sorts of pressure is brought to bear, and for a time it would appear that his course would cost him not only his sweetheart, her entire fortune, but take her from him. In the end strict honesty proven to be the best policy,^ and despite obstarles, which seem almost insurmountable. Garrison wins his sweetheart. Coming Greata!
