WANT FAX AMENDMENT
 PUT THROUGH

In cooperation wilh the National Child Welfare association. and mu- sica1 organiza ions from all parts of the country, members of the Bridge port Philharmonic orchestra are call ing upon Connecticuts representa- tiTes in Congress to use their influ ence to pass an amendment to 4he Revenue Aact of 1921, providing fer the elimination of the discriminatory excise tax of , per cent on pianos, piano players, and records. Urgent telgraphic appeals to their represenH atives in the Senate, asking favorable action on the amendment are being seth by music lovers from every part of the nation. .
 Alfred Fox, treasurer of the Bridge port Philharmonic association, and prominent local piano and phono- sons why repeal of the tax was being
 Dr. Giovanni E. Conterno, conduc- tor of the Philharmonic orchestra which is 10 give it's first concert at Polls theatre November 27th. was another local musician who told why the tax should be repealed.
 f'The reasons advanced for the re- peal of this tax" said MT. Fox. 'tare as follows: (a) It taxes articles es- sentia1 to education and religious ble an attractive home life: and ar i- cles which provide the deepest and most beneficial form of relaxation and entertainment available. (b It adds materially to the cost of music products in widespread demand by people of ordinary mtans. Co It creates dangerous financial condi tion in the music industry by draw ing the cash resources constantly. due to the peculiar and necessary finan- cial situation of the industry. which is based on deferred paymena sales"
 Dr. COnterno said: Any move !, f,Ia h oc af1 j,orr mo tive the bringing of good music with in the reach of the person of average means has the support of the n1usi- clans of Bridgeport. It is the same with this tax on musical instrum entS as it is wi h the presentatien of con certs of high grade music at popular prices. The influence which music has 1rpon the people as a whole should not be lost sight of in the purely commercial aspect of the sit uation.
 '"A few years ago music was re- served for the cultured few. Musical auth critics point cut, however, that the war and the period of readjust- meth following it, have demonstrated life of everyone. The more people there are in a community who have the opportunity to enjoy good music, the more conten1ed people we are go- ing to have

Park Review

'"The Mans Name" a new A. H. Woods me1odrarna written by Eugene Walter and Marjorie Chase, with Dorothy Shoemaker, Lowell Sher- man, Felix Krenrbs and Arthur Shaw, played at the Park theatre last night for an engagement of one perform ance.
 Woods has apparently stolen. or attempted to steal, some of David Belasco's thunder, heavy drama, Western cabin setting, and short cast, but the production, scarcely more than a vaudeville sketch. is far from being Belasco product. Each of the cast handleS the part assigned in a creditable manner. Lowell Sherman is easily the star. Formerly in stock in Bridgeport, he received no ovation, no reception. only well merited ap- plause for his acting. In spite of his known ability. and reputation gained in support of stars Such as Marjorie Ran1fo eau. there are some who be- lieve his presence in the cast was not a little to blame for the light busin ess at the Park theatre. There were a number who were heard to say they tn ought it wrong to commerc alize the principal in an escapade." Woods probably had no such idea. but to some the prejudice is undesirable. -
 The action of the drama is in a cabin in the Colorado mountains Each scene is the same. the action being continuous from late afternoon until early evening. There were three acts. The first curtain did not rise until S:30, the intermissions were long in spite of long. fast, and loud furious efforts upon the part of Shea's jazz band. and the final cur tain was at 10:10 so it would be entirely possible to frame the play for vaudeville presentation.
 It would seem that the drama a story of a cured tubercular, who doubts the methods of his wife who found the money necessary for. a cure, the always present, on the stage and in the films, the "other man. who finally gets his in true A. H. Woods fashion. would have to be heightened, padded or something by the addition of some jokes, Lady Alice's pets, or the Ben Ali acrobats. Folks from Urbana. O.; Muncie. Ind. i; Goldsboro, N.

 The best test of all is that of spe- cif1c gravity. All diamonds have. a specific gravity of 3.52. If you don't know how to take specific gravity any chemist can take it for you. S*
 The latest word from the syndicate which controls the diamond market is that the price of diamonds will not come down. The directors of the conditions at the South African mines make it probable there will be a slow but steady advance in price for sev- eral years. r.
