MAY PREVENT GERMAN
SINGERS COMING TO1J. 5.
Stage Society Indorses Proposal
That No Contracts Shall Be Made !
for Stars to Tour America.
BIZ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
AMSTERDAM. via London, June 4, $50
a.m-The largely attended general
meeting of the German Stage So
ciety at Berlin Saturday passed
without a dissenting vote the pro-
posal of Count Seebach. director of
the Dresden Court Theater, bind
ing the members to grant no CON
tractua1 or ex-contractual leave of alb
sence to singers wishing to go to
America and not to engage for five
years any German singer who accepts
an American engagement. Those pres
ent included the directors of the Schiller
and kleine theaters and the German
opera house of Berlin, and the directors
of the court theaters at Vienna, Stutt-
gart, Cassel, Wiesbaden, Hamburg.
Leipsic, Breslau, Bremerhaven and
Dusseldorf
Count Seebach declared that his pro-
posal had nothing to do with the war,
but was a measure of self-defense and
self-preservation. He said it was in
tolerable that artists who had been
carefully trained by German tutors and
supported by the German public and
press should, just at the moment OF
maturity, make themselves over body
and soul to an American contractor.
and return after some years spent
abroad, but SO much more conceited
He continued: Artists will have to
choose between America and Germany
poSal for German influence, for where
is that influence now" 1t is vain TO
desire to win Americans with civilians
and sentimentalities."
According to the Kreuz Zeituns, Count
Seebach further expressed the opinion
that German-AmericanS were first OF all
Americans. After the meeting it was an
nounced that henceforward artists VINO
wished to go on a starring tour ABROAD
would have to obtain the consent OF the
foreign Office, where Dr. Eyer, manager
of the Court Theater at Darmstadt, has
been appointed artistic adviser to deal
with this question.
Despite the practical unanimity with
which Count Seebach's proposal was
passed, the Vossische Zeitung considers
the proposition an abortive one. The pa
per says:
Apart from objections in principle
arising from the international character
of art, the proposal is not advisable. 1t
will cause great dissatisfaction among
members of the profession, and the lead
ing lights will disregard it. On the other
hand ways and means will be found to
make possible performances by boycotted
artists in Germany as promising profit
able business
should the resolution be carried out,
contrary to all expectations. it is the pub
lie who will suffer by having to renounce
entirely hearing the big stars. who Will
be attracted. to the dollar countries
The resolution becomes effective at
once, and at the expiration of the five
year term offending members may be re-
instated. Artists who entered contracts
in the United States prior to June are
not affected.

CHINA FINDS 1T HARD
TO DlSBAND ITS ARMY
Soldiers Love Their Job, and If Not
Paid They Loot.

Peking.-China's toughest problem
now IS how to disband the army raised
during the revolution. The government,
hard pressed for money, will have to
raise at least $3O,OOO,OOO to pay off the
100000 men under arms, and unpaid
soldiers are always a menace in China.
Coolies regard military service as a
very desirable occupation. Once en-
listed it is difficult TO persuade them to
retire. They riot and become extreme
~ troublesome if an attempt be made
to disband them without liberal pay
ment. The commanding officers are
frequently as mercenary as the SOL
diers. When the government fails to
give its soldiers what they regard as
adequate pay the troops frequently be-
come bandits and loot.
Each province has its own military
governor and distinct military organ
ization, presumably under control of
the Picking authorities, but actually in
dependent in most cases. Consequent
~ the Picking government is forced to
deal very automatically with the mill
tary organizations in the provinces.
particularly in the remote provinces.
