City Wants Plant Earnings.
Announcement was also made today
that bills have now been drafted by
the public service committee of the
Commercial club, to be introduced SIM
ultaneously in the senate and house OF
the legislature which will permit the
city of Richmond to receive a part OF
the earnings of the municipal plant,
annually.
These bills, which amend a state
statute, provide that when cities have
issued bonds not retiEabIe until the
date or maturity, to provide municipal
utilities. at least six per cent on the
investment in the utility shall be paid
into the municipal general fund anual-
ly from the earnings of the utility, pro-
vidfng ways and means have been pro-
vided for the retirement of the bonds
when they mature.
II this amendment is adopted, and 1t
has the approval Of the state utilities
commission, the city of Richmond will
benefit financially from its electric
plans as well as from the cheap cur
rent it provides. Chairman Duncan
expressed astonishment that no pro-
vision had been made in issuing bonds
for the Richmond electric plant to re-
tire them before maturity whenever
call in by the city. If the amendment
is not passed Richmond must wait un-
til 1927, when the electric plant bonds
come due, before any part of the plant
earnings can be paid into the munic-
ipal general fund.

role of Omar Khayyam in Richard Wal.
ton Tully's magnificent spectacle,
"Omar, the Tentmaker," which comes
to the Grand June l.
1t is fitting that these, the most wide.
ly beloved lines in all the realm of the
worlds poetry, should have been made
the basis of q stirring romance in which
the love of a man for a woman remains
pilIar'like passion throughout a long
course Of years, In recent seasons our
stage has been ovor.run with plays that
have emphasized sex in one phase or
another The majority of sex plays
have been somewhat unhealthy in trend,
the passion they have depicted have
been for the most part flamc.like and
fleeting, Yet the true play deserves
serious attention and a permanent place
in our theatre.
1t is therefore refreshing TO chronicle
the success Of play which is primarily
dependent upon the fateful onrush Of a
mighty passion, and yet which is wholly
clean, vigorous and healthy. The same
essence Of purity and fatality which
enters 50 largely into Romeo and
juliet" is present in like degree in
"Omor, the Tentmaker," although this
is the only similarity between the two
/ plays
The lovc.lifc of Omar Khayyam is
one Of the most thrilling and original in
all the annals Of history, and the won
der Of it is that some alert playwright
did not long ago hit upon the theme as
the basis for big spectacular romance
1t remained however, for Richard Wal
ton Tully, who has already enriched our
stage with two commanding loyeplays
"The Bird Of Paradise" and "ThC
Rose Of the Rancho, " TO discern the trc
mendous dramatic appeal in the career
Of Omar Khayyam.

The census experts are now debat-

country already shows symptoms OF

Yet the experts say there is room
here for q population reaching into
billions, If the farm lands are in
tensive1y cultivated.
Our cities seem to think that when
they pass the half million or million
mark. they have accomp lished some
wonderful human achievement.
Actually. what has happened has
been that q lot of human sheep, daz-#
zled by lighted streets and flashy en-
/ tertainments. have abandoned the
economic functions for which they
were best fitted. They rush into oc-
equations already too crowded, while
the basic task of providing food lacks
workers.
Our population, speaking roughly,
is Increasing at the rate of about 90
per cent. in 10 years. The agricultural
population of food producers remains
