Chicago Opera Coming

Cleofonte Campanini, general d.
rector Of the Chicago Opera Assocls,
ton, announced yesterday that ne had
leased Hammersten's Lexington The
atre, at Lexington Avenue and Fli'y-
frst street. for a year, in order 20
produce grand opera in it for four
weeks.

politan," he said. 81 am coming mere
to develop my season..
II was hard, he said, to get singers
under contract for so short a period
as the ten weeks season in Chicago,
so he intended to bring his opera to
New York at the end of the Chicago
season, and. after finishing here. to go
to Boston for two weeks.
The season will begin on January
81. Prices will be the same as at the
Metropolitan. Mr.. Campanini intends
to introduce many French operas, suns

Premier Terauchi announced the date

Representatives as April 90 A politi-

Japan during the last few weeks.
During this contest between the gov.

made clear more than once by repre-
sentatives of the Cabinet that in cas-
the new House opposed the administra-
tion il would be dissolved as its prede-
cessor was. This led to further bitter

strongest man in the government.

H.. S. Scientists Plan to Direct
War Time Food Distribution
Would Avoid Mistakes Made by Germany in Onderfeed-
ing Chdren-Point to Handling of Rations as
Important Problem

will be considered an important phase
of the food problem.
Through the experiments with boy
scouts. it was determined definitely
that heat production is higher IN the
human body before the ages of twelve
to fourteen than in later years and
that the basal requirement Of calories
for young boys is % per cent above
that of the normal for adults of the
same physical size and shape. The Ger.
man and Belgian Encouragement OF
their systems for the rationing of chill
dren during adolescence was made IN
the hope of reducing tuberculosis
among persons weak from privation.
Experiments with Scouts
DR.. Eugene F. Dubois, medical di-
rector of the Russell Sage Institute OF
Pathology, performed the experiment
on six members of the lrvington N.
" Boy Scouts from America from
Troop X Frederick Trevor Hill, the
troops leader. allowed the boys to be
placed in machines known IS respira-
tory calormeters, at Bellevue Hospital,
under the observation of DR.. Dubois.
After a breakfast of bread and milk,
the boys were placed in these ma
chimes, where they remained for sew
eral hours at a time. The respiratory
calorimcters measured the heat pro-
duced in their bodies by the food con-
sumed. the oxygen consumed and the
amount of carbon dioxide given off,
from which conclusions were reached
regarding the effect upon boys not yet
fourteen years old of the amount OF
food ordinarily required by adults.

cerned itself with the food situation IN
Germany at the outbreak of the war.

ing adolescence. in the opinion OF
American scientists, and over-estimates
were made of the food supplies avail

the United States government to al
low them to serve on the food commits

Japan acing Crisis
In Internal Politics
Terauchi's Success Means Con
tinuation of Opposition
Nv ISAAC DON LEVINE

japan faces to-day what is probably
the mghtiest internal political crisis
in her history. In case the election has
been won by the government the OPP
position is certain to continue its as
saults against the military elements IN
control of the nation. The Russian
revolution has produced some profound
effects on Japan. 1t has given power
full impetus to the democratic forces
and is sure to prove a stimulant to
their continued aggression.
On the other hand, should the new
parliament prove as radical as the lot
mer. the Cabinet will again face crl-
sis. Il will have to either give IN ana
resign or dissolve the new House: In
the latter event Japan would quickly
become the scene OF activities that
might conceivably eliminate IN a reVo-
luton. -:
The election is a victory of the mill
tarv bureaucracy now controlling the
Japanese government over the democ-
racy. The latter has been waging Tor
some time hard struggle for more
representative and popular form OF gov
eminent. This struggle, tense and bit
ter as it is, has been somewhat over
Swallowed by the great events in Europe.
Last wear the liberal Count Okuma.
who is the leader of the democratic
movement, was ousted by the military
party from the Premiership. As his
successor, Count Terauchi, a typical
Japanese iunker and enemy of political
reform. was appointed by the Emperor
Terauchi's rise was the signal for the
beginning of a sharp conflict between
the popular forces and the military
aristocracy at the helm of the empire.
As Count Okuma was supported by a
majority in the House of Representa-
tives, his dismissal in favor of reac-
tionary was a clear violation of the
principle of representative government.
The various progressive sections in the
House then combined to fight the Te-
rauchi Cabinet. A large section Of the
press backed the opposition. The at
tacks against the ministry grew so vio-
lent and relentless last January that 1t
became necessary for Terauchi either to
resign or dismiss parliament.
3 The Premier chose the latter course.
, The dissolution of the House of Repre-
sentatives on January % added but fuel
/ 20 the fire. The Toxic "Ahasi" wrote:
"There is perhaps no other country in
the world where militarism fourishes
as it does in Japan. The world is given
to understand that the government Of
Japan is conducted by the will of the
people. but that is only in name. The
/ hard truth is that everything is decided
by the within of the soldiers"
The other opposition papers eX-
pressed themselves in the same vein,
| sparing no adiectives on the reaction
airy bureaucratic government.
A dramatic development Of the situa-
1 ton was the attempt to assassinate
Yukio Ozaki, former Minister of Jus
tice and leader of the Constitutional
party. While Ozaki was addressing a
mass meeting called to demand the res
ignation of the Cabinet two men armed
with short swords sprang on the plat

American scientists are planning to
avoid the mistakes made by Germany
in underfecding children by asking, in
the event that government rationlng
becomes necessary. that they may
either control or direct the handling
of the food problem.
An experiment on American boy
scouts which was conducted to deter
mine the quantity and quality of food
hest suited TO insure maximum physl-
cal endurance, led the German govern
ment and the Belgian Relief Commit
tee last October to increase rations for
children in accordance with the ind
ings of that experiment.
DR.. Graham Lusk, professor OF phy-
siology at Cornell Medical College has
announced that in view Of the in
ternational situation, IN which from
now on the United States will be forced
to consider agricultural problems and
provide for the food supplies of Eng
land and France as we'll as OF America
a movement is under way to have
American scientists take the question
up with the government.
Food First Problem.
"The food question in this country
should be given the very first attcn-
ton" said DR.. Lusk. Human machines
have to be fed as we'll as cannon. and
for an army to fight successfully 1t
should be properly nourished. | thor
ourhly agree with the plan to serd
troops to Europe, but this would b.
impracticabe unless the government
could provide food in sufficient guam
titles both to maintain national vel
fare and to supply the Entente"
When the National Academy OF
Sciences meets in Washington April 1G,
Or. Lusk will suggest that a committee
of scientists be appointed to urge this
phase of economic preparedness upon

Warning of Danger to U. 5.
from Japan Voiced at
Science Academy
Dispute Not Settled
Sole Reliance Cannot Be
Placed in Nations League,
Says Theodore Warburg

Philadelphia, April 2l.-Anything
like permanent world peace is stu
far-away dream, and leagues and treat
les will do little to prevent future
wars, according to speakers before the
American Academy Of Political and So
cial Science here to-day. In addition
to these pessimistic forecasts, one dis
tinct warning Of danger to the United
States was voiced by Toyokichi Iyena-
ga, of New York, managing director OF
"The East and West News Bureau"
The problems of durable peace be-
tween America and Japan. Mr.. Iyenaga
said, will not have received their
definite and final solution until Japa-
nese residing in this country receive
full recognition of their equality with
people of other nationalities.
Such recognition of equality, po-
itical and social" he added, "is denied
to Japan so long as her subjects are
Disseminated against and cannot enjoy
rights and privileges accorded to other
aliens"
SAYS League Is Bound TO Come
"a league of nations is almost GER
tain to come into being" said Theodore
Marburg, formerly United States Min
later to Belgium, because the Entente
Powers, in their joint note of January
10 to Mr.. Wilson, committed them
selves formally and officially to the
project. But, until il is shown that
the league can and will protect its
members against sudden assault, until
il is shown that the league itself Will
hold together in times of storm and
stress. no country can be expected to
place its sole reliance for protection
on it. =,
"To many men the acts committed
in this war, the very assault itself,
were, before the event, simply unbe-
lievable. The result is a shock to con-
fidence- confidence in the binding force
oe treaty obligations, confidence in in
ternational law, and confidence in the
upright intentions of the neighbor.
mo matter what the issue of the
war, we arc therefore apt for time
to witness armament going on at an
accelerated pace"
During more than a thousand years,
many experiments have been attempted
at securing a continued peace in the
world by means of compacts, alliances
and treaties. All have failed to gain
more than temporary breathing spells
in the long history of human strife"
George w. Wickersham declared. Con
ficting or coincdent interests and am
billions are more powerful than written
stipulations.
U. S. League" Didn't Prevent War
