 MUSICAL WORK

 Near Future

Rome, June Is. Correspondents ot the Associated Press. )-Ptetro Mascagni, composer. expects a great American opera to be produced by an American composer, with the Ameri- can theme which shall crystallize Amcrica's musical attainments. This work, he said, was shaping itself in the efforts America was now making in her music halls and conservatories.
 'I am looking forward with some amount of anxiety to the production of a great musical work in America in the near furure,'' said Signor Mas cagni. There will certainly be pro- duced soon a great American nusi- cal composition. I believe it will re- fleet the life of America. I feel that tt will he built up out of the music of America. music which is so pop ular there. The strains which take the popular ear will repeat them selves in this new work I am ex- pectins. It will be the expression of America in all her social, economic and artistic life and will be another great musical productions
 ''It will symbolize America, Just as Russian music sym bolizes Russia, and Italian, Italy
 ''The music of the negroes is so entrancing," said the Maestro. I like to hear 1t so much. I think 1t, too, will have its part in the musical achievements of America" Ragtime, he said, too would have its great part in American productions.

MAY LAY CABLE
 FROM SWEDEN TO THIS COUNTRY

Stockholm, June 1O.-Strong rin- ancial interests in the United States have under consideration with au- thorities of the Swedish government q plan 10 lay a cable from America to Sweden, making the landing at Gothenburg, says the Dagens Nyhet- CT.
 British monopoly and control of cable connections between Sweden and the United States and the eXer- else of British censorship in the war has caused some adverse criticism here. The American minister, Ira Nelson Morris. now in the United States, is said to be energeticcally supporting the plan under consider ation and 1t is understood here that one of the purposes of his visit to America was in connection with the oroposed new cable service.
 Advocates of the proposal point to the prospect that a considerable part of American trade with Russia, Fin land. Poland and the Baltic provin- ces will pass through Scaninavian countries, and they see in this, in- creased need of a direct cable ser vice with the United States.

FOR AND AGAINST WOMEN PRIESTS HOTLY DEBATE D

London. June 20 z- Associated Press Correspondence) - Excitement attended a debate in public meet ing held the other day in Church House, Westminster, the headquar- ters of the Church of England, over the question whether women should be admitted to the priesthood. The principal debaters were Miss Maude Royden, a leader of the movement hero for women clergy, and the Rev. A c. Magee, q staunch oppoAplt of it.
 Clergymen joined with laymen and women in missing, booing and cheer ing. according to the side they took.
 ITO admit women to the priest hood" the Rev. Mir. Magee said. would be a revolution, not an evolu- ton. They cannot have a revolution of that character until the whole church has set its seal upon 1t and God has approved of it."
 Kissing and cries of "Shame!" greeted his discussion of the moral relationships likely to rise between men and women in the church if the latter were admitted. You cannot get away from the sex question:" he said. We are made as we are, and that fact remains"
 Amid applause from his friends he said he believed the granting of the priesthood to woman would make her false to her master and false to her sex"
 women" argued Miss Royden, "desf-e women as priests, and their admission to the priesthood would make it much easier for women to get help from the church."
 After quoting the New Testament to show that the commission of the priesthood was given to men and women alike in the Upper Room" at Jerusalem, she continued:
 The head of the Church of Eng lanA has not always been a man. Queen Elizabeth, Queen Anne and Queen Victoria were all supreme heads of the church"
 'Noi No!" shouted many voices.
 I'm sorry If you don't like it," Miss Royden told the protesting ele- ment, but 1t is so."
 She wert on to affirm that the fun damenta1 differences between men and women were not bar to women's entry into the priesthood. 'Women," she concluded, desire to conform more nearly to the ideal laid down by Christ He laid down nothing and suggested nothing that divided men and women in the vocation of priest hood" No vote was taken on the subject.
