During the last part of the war
Wolff was with a bombing squadron
in Morocco-where, it seems, he
managed fantastically in the inter-
walls of flying duty to do some work
on the score of The Blue Bird"

"Few French composers have had
such hard Shedding in the begin
ning," says Thomas in the New
York Times. "He was the victim
of a conspiracy between the little
god called love and another god
almost as influential in the modern
wor1d-the God of Administrative
Red Tape. Wolff was not quite
twenty, and almost at the end OF
his studies at the Paris Conserva-
tory, when there came to the banks
of the Seine to finish her training for
the theatre a girl of seventeen, who
had just won a prize as a singer at
the Brussels Conservatory. Quite in
the manner of old romances the two
young people met, found each other
charming and fell in love. The
Prix de Rome is naturally the goal
of the ambition of the Conservatory
student. 1t gives him four years
in Rome in the most beautiful of
Roman palaces, a pension, masters,
incalcu1ab1e advantages. And Wolff
had every reasonable right to ex-
pect to win it. There was a rule
then which forbade married STU

dents to compete. He chucked the
whole thing, and married Fanny
David. The Faculty was scandal
lied by the act, and Wolff had to
go to work for a living.
"Wo1ff as a student" added
Thomas, "offended the prejudices
of the authorities in another way.
He was keen for sports and got into
a lot of trouble because he insisted
on playing football, though he was
told that kicking a pigskin about
like child in the park made Con-
servatory student ridiculous. He'd
take his official sco1ding-and go
back to his game of Rugby"
Later this unmusicianly taste for
athletics furnished meeting
ground for Wolff and Maeterlinck.
The mystical Fleming all that
America thinks of him mainly as
sort of super-poetical emanation of
the Blue Bird and the Bees vul-
carly fond Of boxing. It. seems
that he enjoyed doing what dam
age he could to the composers face
and didn't particularly mind getting
a bloody nose himself when they
put on the gloves.
Naturally there were complica-
tions in getting "The Blue Bird"
made into an opera. Maeter1inck
himself was the first complication.
When Debussy was setting "Pelleas
and Melisande" to music there was
a row. Debussy made cuts and re-
arranged scenes and Maeter1inck
was annoyed. So much so that he
refused even to hear the music
"That is why" said Wolff, ";'I in
sisted upon having Maeter'irck do
all the necessary rearfanging of
SThe Blue Bird If I had sugges-
tions to make / sent them to him ITO
pass on before / composed a mote
of the music for: that particular part.

Belgians Here Seeking
u. S. Material for Silks
American Cotton Linters To Be
Used by Tubize Plant,
tC)fficsals Cav

American cotton lnters soon will
make their appearance in artificial
silk yarns produced in Belgium. Ar
engagements are now. being made for
the purchase of considerable GUAM
tity of American iinters by the owners
of the Tubize artificial silk plants
For four years,-it is said, not pound
of American material has been hovpht
for this purpose
The need Of the Belgium artificial
silk industry for new supplies of raw
material has become urgent with the
resumption of work in the Hungarian
and Polish branch factories Of the
main plant at Tubize. The Hungarian
establishment at Sarvar. which had
been seized and converted into NUM-
tions factory by the Austrians at the
outbreak Of the war, has now been
fully salvaged and is producing 1000
pounds of artificial silk daily, none of
which is finding its way into this coun-
try.
The Polish plant at Tomazov, also
part of the new Polish state, has been
enlarged to supply the Polish govern
ment with powder needed in its war
on the Bolsheviki. But sufficiently
large portion has been retained for
the manufacture of silk to provide an
output OF about 5000 pounds daily.
D, Emil Bindschadler and his as
slstant, DR.. Juger, arrived in New York
a few days ago to make tests with
samples of American linters and chem
reals to be used in the future. Both
declare that the American offerings
are not only equal but, in some re-
spect, superior to the material to be
had in EuroDe

some of the low prices quoted by sec
ond-hand holders of both finished and
unfinished goods refer only to small
lots of merchandise. Converters, who
are showing some signs of operating
in the gray or unfinished goods mar
ket to greater extent than they have
shown for some time, assert that as se N
as real bids for goods are thrown into
the market offers to sell are with
drawn.

there is general but gradual unloading

and preventing overproduction, even

Heavy cancellations Of orders for
low grade shoes by retailers, because
of late deliveries principally, and large
new orders of the same class form one
of the many andmolies confronting

orders are extremely light on high

assert that business outside of New

local representative of large Roches-
ter shoerhaking concern said yester-
day that his company's fall produc-

present, but that his customers in this
