A Senatorial Skit.

wv HEN TIME is not the essence of the con-
w tract of the Senate with the people; when
there is of time than of pressing business
before that body of statesmen, it is dull person
who cannot enjoy its favorite act entitled: "Kll-
time" No vaudeville bill has skt full
OF comedy 1t is then the grave and reverend
seniors forget their age and with only assumed
dignity, indulge in return to their school-boy
days with luscious take-off of a Senate session
Where could one find more delicious ex-
ample of stage humor than the so-called debate
of the vets on the beer bill?" With all the
semblance of gravity with dramatic, serious and a
we'll assumed sincerity, these give model
buresque of Senate debate. 1t is succession
of absurdities so cleverly disguised to equal
Kiwanis hat-smashing session Without a smile
and with oratoricai finish, josh history of the
Revolution is recited if pertinent to a present
day issue. One after the other the characters
in this play take their cues and inject doses
of real humor.
Yet Senator Penrose nor Senator Lodge, though
both in sympathy with the actors, probably see
nothing real funny in the play they helped to
stage. They have really serious matters for con-
sideration and while realizing that the farce
comedy delays vote on the beer bill, certain
to carry as vote is reached, they prob
ably might prefer to have defeat on that and be
through with it, rather than have the revenue
bill and peace treaty delayed by 6libuster.
Senator Penrose has promised that the revenue
bill will be with the President by November I, as
it is quite essential that the Berlin treaty shall
be ratified before November II. There is mighty
little chance for either so long as their wet asso-
ciates insist upon staging day after day, their
skit: "Killtime," or "The Senate at Play" Unless
they can influence their wet comrades to drop the
curtain farce, serious business must wait while
the public unamused, grows rate.

Intredhcing Kaufman ana Coanelly.
NEW YORK, Sept. 34.-For years
the theatrical managers have fired
their classic broadside-thought right
up out of their own heads-at critics
IF you know 30 much about plays
why don't you write them yourselfr'
And 80 George 8. Kaufman and Marc
Connolly have gone out and done that
very little thing.
And Booth Harrington declares their
FIRST play. ''Dulcy." Is "The gayes,
comedy 1 ever saw" Also 1t has had
a long run In Chicago and threatens
to duplicate Its Chicago success In
New York.
Kaufman is dramatic editor Of the
New York Times. and Connolly used
to write reviews for the Morning Tele.
graph before he decided to fashion a
play.
The play gets its name from Frank.
lin p. Adams "Dulcinea" In the Tri-
bune's Coming Tower. Dulcinea Is q
young woman who doesn't know much
about anything but knows what she
likes and she believes that all is not
gold that glitters and that two's a
company and three is a crowd. She
spills platitudes all over the place and
is the life of the party.
George Kaufman broke into Journal
ism when F. p. A. was on the Even
ing Mail. From the wilds of Jersey
he sent sprightly contributions signed
&c. s. K" Later on he became a
columnist in Washington and still
later he took the job F. p. A. held
down on the Mail. Then he became
a dramatic critic.
Marc Connolly came from Pittsburgh.
He worked on various papers and
came to New York and wrote The
Amber Princess" which had brief
run on Broadway, and when it closed
Connolly went to the Morning Teie-
graph.
Kaufman and Connolly are in their
early sos. They have written a play
that sparkles with bright satire And
managers sneer and all Of the rest
Of the reviewers are wearing q smile
which indicates that any dull week
and they may toss of a play just
as good.
1t Is easy to see that the two play
wrights had a mighty good time writ
ing their play. One imagines them
meeting after a regular first night and
contributing bright quips and quirks
for their stage creation.
Commercially their play will more
than likely make them 500. 900 apiece.
and to anyone who has labored in the
bright lights Of a city room that rep
resents some change.
At the first night in New York some
amusing tales are told Of the youth

came in an usher thought he was the
white covering for a chair. Connolly
rushed out after the first act and
asked the house treasurer IL 'Kauf-
mans body had been found"
They are extremely modest young
men and while they had in a spirit
Of fun written a good play which a
producer insisted upon presenting to
New York audiences. those who know
them do not believe that either was
confident Of the success OF the play.
Best of all, they have, written a
sparkling comedy, chock full of clean.
bright lines. There are no lines with
double meaning, which seems to be
the fashion in playwrighting this
season.

The Wage Controversy.
To the Editor. The Washington Herald:

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
The employees Of the Washington
Navy Yard are making a great ca
lamity howl in reference to having
their wages reduced. Your cores
pendent thinks they are lucky to
have employment, considering the
great number of government work
ers that have been discharged, some
without sufficient means to pay
their way home and others who
bought homes on the instsllment
plan. These will lose all they have
paid on their homes and also be
compelled to leave the city. l
think under the circumstances the
employes at the navy yard are
much better OFF. Remember the
quotation, Am my brothers
keeper They don't seem to be In
sympathy with the man that is out
of employment, with a wife and
family depending on him. Why not
take some action by submitting to
further reduction of wages and
hours OF labor, that will enable the
Secretary of the Navy and the La
Dor Board to re-employ hundreds
Of men that have been dismissed?
There is work enough at the yard
to give employment to at least
l.2OO or 1,40e more employees. Now.
why don't they get busy and try to
help the men out of employment?
The men that have employment can
make payments on homes far bet
ter than the men who have no in
come. In reference to the case Of
the children. the employed man has
the advantage. There is no danger
of the employed going to the
charity organizations or the soup
houses, especially IL we have a
long and cold winter. But how
about the unemployed man? Let
the navy yard men show some
sympathy for their former shop
mates; IL they don't want to work
for the wages they are getting, let
them resign. Hundreds of men will
be only too glad to take their
places.
