Fritz Kreisler To Appear Here
 Mar. l2 At Poli' S

Fritz Kreisler, the great violinist, who will appear in concert at Poh's theatre, Sunday, March I2 under the direction of Rudolph Steinert of M. Stetnert & Sons, is one of those rare ly gifted persons for whom success was certain whatever line of work he might have followed. His success among the vio1inists of the present generation, is to say the least, sec ond to none.
 He had a etilHant career in vf- enna, when a youth, as a student of medfcine- His father is a famous physician and Fritz, had he continued in that science, would undoubtedly have become one of the great men of the world in that profession. When he was working with Massart in Paris, he incidentally found time to go to the Beaux Arts and work at painting and his feIiow students who were then with him say that he showed very decided talent in that line.
 It was not until 1899 that Kreisler finally decided to make the violin his career. He overcame great ob- stacles and within two years had taken his place among the greatest artists of the world. Today he stands absolutely without rival in purity of style, beauty of tone and soundness of artistry.

THE PEOPLES SAY
Bridgeport, Conn.,. March 2, 1922.

March Z, 1SzZ. The Bridgeport Evening Times:
 Dear Sirs-With the respect to my advocating a cut of 10 per cent. in the salary of every individual work ing for the City of Bridgeport, from the mayor down, I maintain that II is not cut at all, that the purchasing power of money has increased far more than 10 per cent. from what It has been for some years, and that all will receive as much or more pur- chasing power as they have been receiving.
 If we are to economize. let us economize in a big way, way 1n which a big business man would deal with his business.
 Why cut 20 per cent from the comparatively few in the Charitles Department, and nobody else?
 The answer is "Pottics.'
 The answer is. it is too easy to spend the city's money.
 The present city officials were elected to give a business an eco nomical administration. Let them do it in a real way. Let them spend the city money as they would speno their own money.
 The fact is. that the present po- Htical method of running the busl- ness of the city is antiquated, waste ful, impossible and should be rele- gated to the dump. -

 ''The American Legion is an organ ization of returned service men and women holding together in an en- deavor to. continue their service to their country in peace as well as in war as constructive citizens. ReMg- ion in Legion membership is no more a question than it is in American citizenship, nor can 1t be brought into Legion affairs. It was not a question when a man steptped out to join the colors and to defend his country. It will never be a question in our ser vice as Legion men.
 Such propaganda as you are spreading is menace to America and institutions. How a man his God is his own busi- ness and not yours.''
