THEATRE MANAGERS
RENEW TAX FIGHT

There was a commotion in the office
Of New Yorks theatre managers yester-
day when news came from Washington
that after all the increased tax on thea
tire tickets might become a law. The
present tax is 10 per cent Of the value
Of the ticket. II is proposed to double
this, and now the managers fear that
the Cochrane committee might adopt
this any day, although il was under
stood unofflcially that the measure had
been abandoned definitely
So there will be a meeting Of the
Theatrical Managers Association today
to protest against this proposed ad-
vance.
"This new law, II it be passed." Lee
Shubert said to a reporter Twill work
an unexampled hardship TO the treatre
The activity Of theatre managers will
be curtailed on all sides. Plays that are
not Immediately successful will be
abandoned, and no more will dramas
that are less successful here than on
the road be continued in New York at
a loss. Thus will hundreds Of actors
be thrown out Of employment. Then
many Of the theatres will be closed.
and all branches Of the theatrical pro
fession after an unusually hard year
will have to suffer further trials.
"The public. Of course, will suffer ss
we'll. The 10 per cent tax is heavy
enough. and it will not be easy to pay
twice as much The theatre managers
are hoping that the public. VIII join

defeat at the hands of the speedy
quintet from st. Josephs. The lads
from Eighth and West streets were

count of HE death Of a near relative.

That congressman Albert r. Polk
was under the wrong impression when
he stated that he did not think the
United states Government had dis
trict engineer In this city. Is explained
bv United states Engineer Frank c.
Warner. In discussing the matter ne
said:
"The statements credited 10 Mr.. Polk
were interesting reading in view Of
the fact that the L. s. Engineers once
has been ostablishedSin the old Federal
Building Sixth and King streets) for
% or more years, and the district en-
gineer stationed here could have given
him information regarding any river or
harbor work in Delaware, If request
had been made.
Existing regulations prohibit my
taking the initiative I'm any matters
connected with Congressional action,
but on request information Will be
given concerning any work desired for
legitimate purposes. Full information
regarding every river and harbor pro-
iect Is published in annual reports Of
the chief Of engineers, as we'll as the
estimates Of the district engineers for
appropriations needed for future work,
from which he could have gained the
information desired.
Better understanding and better re-
suits would obtain II members Of Con
gress kept in closer touch with the
river and hdrbor work carried on by
the district office, as they could then
have the latest information on the
status Of any work in which they were
Interested.
"The territory covered by this Of
fee includes all rivers and creeks trib-
utary 20 the Delaware river from
above Camden, n. j., 10 the ocean, and
on the Atlantic coast from Seaside
Park, n. j., to Chincoteague Inlet. Va.
and the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal, a total Of 9S works upon which
work is in progress more or less, and
many other inactive works. In addition
this ofllce has supervision over fish
pounds and the removal of wrecks in
the Atlantic ocean and adjacent waters
from Seaside Park, n. j., TO Cape
Charles, Va.
"On account OF the war, no work has
been done on many projects for which
funds are available, as. dredges could
not be obtained, but early resumption
of work Is expected. Wilmington has
a L. s. Engineer office. and the district
engineer is alive to the best interest
of Wilmington and the State Of Della
ware. and is ready to cooperate in
every way with city, State or Federal
officials for this purpose"

Jugo-Slsv interests on the eastern shore
Of the Adriatic resulted in a serious
situation. This was reflected In the
work Of the preliminary peace con-

Foreign Minister sonnino was recog-

Of military aid and war pensions and

not make clear in one Of his public
