Which Is the Best
Of American Plays?
By Walter Prichard Eaton

N |nAI Is the Des1 American play !!
WNIf the director of a French
theater came to you and said
II want to show Paris the best Ameri-
can play ye written. Tell me which
one it Isl" what would you answer
him? 1t isn't easy.
Yet that was the exact question M
Gemier, director Of the Odeon Theater
in Paris, asked of the Drama League
Of America recently. The league ac-
cordingly appointed committee of
seven, and told each one of them to
send in list of what he considered
the best five plays in the order of
merit, with few more less important.
First choice counted five points, see
ond choice four points, and SO on.
Thus play could receive, in the ball
loting, a possible total of thirty
points.
This committee consisted of Miss
Margaret Anglin, the actress; Mrs. A.
Starr Best, of the Drama League; Ar
thur Hopkins, the producer; Kenneth
Macgowan, critic; Montrose ]. Moses,
critic and theatrical historian; Theo-
dore B. Hinckley, editor of "The
Drama" and Walter Prichard Eaton,
critic and director of the Drama
League.

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE NOTES

FEED THE COLT WELL, especial
ly the first winter. A good draft
colt will eat three or four quarts Of
oats, three ears of corn, and hand
full of oil meal or little bran, three
times a day.
FAT SOLUBLE vITAMINEs found
in butter, if used in liberal quantities
in the family diet, render the indi-
vidual more resistant to disease, and
are necessary to growth and repro
duction, says Extension Circular 81,
"Food for the Family" which may be
had upon request to the North Da-
kota Agricultural College.
THE MOST DELICIOUS SAU-
SAGE is bread and milk sausage,
made by grinding three or four pounds
of pork, a loaf Of bread, and a quart

ments shall be made, and as to the
methods of raising the funds to meet
the demand. These questions are
closely related since if the money is
to come from the interest upon the
foreign debt the payments could not
begin until January l, 1928, or even
thereafter, perhaps. Other alter
natives are sales tax, as proposed
previously by a strong group in the
House, or tax upon the sale Of light
beer and wines, which, of course,
would have to be legalized. While
the effectiveness of the latter prop
osition as a money-raiser is un-
questioned, such move would GER
tainly draw down the wrath of the
drys. The sales tax would also
meet opposition but it also seems to
have many friends.
The committee bill will pass the
House from all indications, if it is
once reported. In the last Congress
the real fight was in the committee.
When the bill came to a vote in the
House it was but short time prior
to the congressional elections and
this fact may have bolstered up the
wavering. The majority given the
bill was a comfortable one. This
year the situation will be much the
same. 1t is not long from January
to June and the House seems more
favorably inclined than before.
All Of the North Dakota delegation
have been advocates Of adjusted COM
pensation throughout, and this is true
Of. the senators as we'll as the con-
gressmen. Moreover North Dakota is
represented upon both the House and
Senate Committees which will report
the bill, and North Dakota men are
bound to have healthy influence in
the fight for this legislation.

WASHINGTON NEWS LETTER
January 8, 1922

January y, 15lZ
The death of Senator Penrose, and
the succession of Senator McCumber
to the Craftsmanship of the Finance
Committee, marks the passing OF the
craftsmanship of this all-important
body from an industrial state OF the
East to an agricultural state OF the
West. The balance of power in the
United States Senate now rests def
nitely in the West, and for the first
time in forty years the chairman
ship of the Finance Committee Is
held by a western man.
AS the head Of the Committee on
Finance Senator Penrose exercised a
sweeping influence over the affairs
of the nation and, in the opinion OF
many, the Pennsylvania Senator was
the dominant power in the Republican
party. His passing relegates his
state to a secondary position, and
gives to the agricultural group in the
Senate a position Of great strategic
power.
Senator McCumber, rising to the
craftsmanship Of the Finance Com
mittee through seniority right, has
been a member of that committee for
many years and, due to the illness OF
Senator Penrose, the North Dakota
Senator has been in active charge of
that body for the past year. Hence
the change is not as great as might
appear at first flash for to him has
FALLEN the responsibility of presiding
over the Finance Committee during
the preparation of the revenue act,
the soldiers adjusted compensation
bill, of which he was the author, and
rho n0st-war tari hill
Peculiarly enough the passing re-
Gently of another Pennsylvania Sen
>ator, Mr.. Knox, also left an opening
for the rise of a western man, Sen
ator Curtis of Kansas, who became
chairman of the Rules Committee
upon the death of Senator Knox.
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, the
majority leader, remains as the out
standing easterner in position OF
power, and it has been frequently
said that while Lodge "reigns he does
not rule"
The chairmanships Of Finance, APP
preparations, Rules, Judiciary, Ag-
riculture, Interstate Commerce, and
Education and Labor, are all in the
West. Of the more important COM
mittees the East has only Foreign
Relations, Military Affairs, and Naval
Affairs.
Senator McCumber, by his elevation
to the Craftsmanship on Finance, and
his position as ranking Republican
upon Foreign Relations, holds COM
mittee assignments second to none,
and puts the state of North Dakota
in a place it has never held before in
national affairs.
Hearings on the tariff have been
held the past week by the Senate Com.
mittse on Finance, Senator Laid, of
North Dakota, appearing on Thurs
day in the interests of the cereal
growers. The tariff schedule pre-
pared by the farm bloc was also SUBJ
faitted
Senator McCumber has introduced
bill, amending the Revenue Act,
which would make farm mortgages
exempt from taxation. The Senator
points out that farm mortgages are
being called in, and money invested in

Rotarians Learn, How To Appreciate
Good Music


Good Music
John E. Howard, director of music
in the city schools, read the paper at
Mondays Rotary luncheon, taking for
his subject. "The Listening Glass in
Music" Mr.. Towards object in
treating the subject as he did was to
bring to his hearers the increased en-
joyment and appropriate under
standing of the true beauty of music.
This can only be accomplished by an
intimate acquaintance with the great
est compositors in musical literature.
He reproduced number of grapha-
phone selections to illustrate the
four fundamental ideas which music
can express: Nationality: 2
Definite formal constructions: g.
Poetic thought and 4-Story telling or
tone painting. One may acquaint
himself with compositors which reflect
these characteristics in very short
time. Speaking of Jazz music, which
some say is typically American, Mr..
Howard states that it is written by
inferior musicians and is promoted by
commercial agencies only.
R. E. Barron, of the North Dakota
War Finance Board, who had just re-
turned from Minneapolis, gave re-
port on the North Dakota situation
He stated that while the demands for
war finance loans in Minnesota and
Iowa had been considered excessive,
due to the amount of money asked for
and the value of the collateral, our
own state is in much better con-
dition for only small loans are asked
and the value of the collateral is
much larger. There has consequent

tax-free securities to the detriment
of the agricultural industry during
the period of stringency. The pas
sage of the McCumber bill would re-
lieve this situation since investors
would prefer to put their money into
farm mortgages bearing six and
seven per cent to bonds yielding, per-
haps, only four per cent.
j. II
Reorganization Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission 50 that its
membership would be representative
of all parts of the country is provided
in a bill introduced in the Senate by
Senator Trammell, Democrat, of
Florida.
The bill proposes that one member
Of the commission be selected from
each of the following groups: New
England, North Atlantic, South At
lantic, Gulf States, Central Southern,
Great Lakes, Central West, South.
west, Northwest, Pacific Coast and
Interior Central.
At the office Of Senator Nelson it
was stated that the date had not yet
been set for hearings to be held by
the Judiciary Committee upon the
nomination of Andrew Miller, of Bis
marck, for Judge of the Federal
bench in North Dakota. One man has
already asked to be heard in opposition
but his name could not be learned.
Senator Ladd, it is understood, will
not oppose the confirmation of Mr.
Miller. Ladd stood out to the last
for his own candidate, Seth Richard
son, of Fargo, however, and did not
join Senator McCumber in endorsing
Miller.
A rumor, noted here for what it
may be worth, had it that a senator
from another state might object tc
the appointment of Mr.. Miller. Such
an action would seem a breach OF
senatorial courtesy but some men lack
an appreciation of that and, if the
grounds for the action seem sufficient
it might of course be done. Why such
an objection should be made is moi
known.
Miller will be confirmed when hia
name comes before the Senate in ex-
ecutive session. The White House
is satisfied with the situation and the
verdict now rests with the Senate
are usually carefully investigated by
the Department of Justice and this
was done very thoroughly in the case
of Mr.. Miller. Confirmation by the
Senate should therefore follow as 9
matter of course.
The soldiers bonus bill will gain q
new lease on life when chairman
Fordney of the House Committee or
Ways and Means will call the COM
mittee together this Tuesday to begin
consideration of the bill. On the
proposition of adjusted compensation
legislation itself sentiment on the
committee is not known to be favor
able. Mr.. Fordney, the chairman
is the author Of the bill and since its
inception has been one of its most
steadfast advocates. Representatives
George M. Young and James A
Frear, of Wisconsin, stood with Ford.
