Miss Byrd
AppearsOn
Programs

Under the caption, "Oregon
Artists Succeed in New York
Maelstrom," Francis Burke, in a
special article to the Oregonian
has this to say of Winifred Byrd
1t is astounding how many
artists of Oregon origin have won
or are striving for success here
One meets them everywhere
There is Winifred Byrd, who
comes from Salem. She is seri-
GUS, attentive figure at all of the
important concerts when she is
in town, looking youthful and ar
tistic with a tam on her bobbed
hair and sandals on her feet. Miss
Byrd spent the summer near New
York, coming in to play the List
Hungarian Rhapsody" with the
Philharmonic orchestra under the
baton of Willem Van Hoogstrat-
en-, out at the stadium. And, by
the way, only those marooned on
Manhattan island in midsummer
can know the joyous relief of sit
ting in that great half circle un-
der the moon and stars In the
cool of the evening, listening to
great music.
Miss Byrd also had a week at
the Capital theater, where they
have a policy Of presenting well
known artists for seven day en-
gagements. Miss Byrd played the
Grieg concerto with the fine
Capital orchestra twice a day
during her week, and she enjoy
ed the enthusiasm of a real movie
audience. She has a good season
ahead, booked for her by Haensel
& Jones, and after her appearance
December 10 at a musical intime
at Sherry's will not be heard here
again until her recital in March.
Miss Byrd's indomitable spirit
and her colossal capacity for
work have gone far to justify the
sobriquet fixed upon her by Hun
eker-"the little devil of the
keyboard"

Concerning Retail Prices

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Your correspondent Frank Far
rington, Of Delhi, N. Y, asks "How
much profit may merchant make with
out being classed as a profteer >" Re-
Gently purchased a pair of shoes here
in New York and when | asked the
merchant why prices were maintained
at the level prevailing in bellum and
post-bellum days. the answer was:
"Why, labor hasn't come down." To
which I replied that. while it is un-
fortunate that so many men are out
Of employment, this condition should
benefit the consumer to the extent Of
lower prices. especially as they bear
the burden when prosperity reigns, be-
ing crushed between the two mill
stones Of high wages and big profits
for the manufacturers and retailers.
As with shoes. so it is with food. cloth
ing, in fact with every necessary Of
life.
In regard to merchants (retailers) J
taking losses. they didn't hesitate to
charge exorbitant prices in 1919 and
in 1920, so in the natural cycle of eco
nomic events let them reduce when
earning power on the part of the con-
suming public which works for salaries
or commissions is similarly reduced.

The people Of New York are ca

what the adventure is for More
over, they have nothing against bus
lines. Convince them that busses
are better than surface cars and
subways and elevateds and they will
lose no time in purchasing galoshes
and wool mittens for the march.
But they have one thing in COM
mon with the population Of Mis-

merest bagatelle to him. but 10 tax
payers already wondering where tax
money is coming from it appears to

They would be grievously disap-

Hudson they caused this money to
be expended only to discover later
that bus lines didn't pay, and had to
be junked shortly after they were

Self-Censorship

The stage folk plan a censorship
Of their own. In case Of arguments
between the producer and the the
ater management, tie actor and the
author. it is proposed to submit any
play complained about to a jury Of
citizens drawn by the Commissioner
Of Licenses from 4 panel of five hun
drcd citizens.
Among sponsors Of the plan are
rganizations and actors Of such
prominence and responsibility that it
is difficult to understand why there
is not already gentlemen agree
mcnt strong enough to make any out
side censorship unnecessary. Any
organized censorship, legislative or
public. seems bound to have dead
cning influence on the drama. Be-
tween those who see no good what
ever in the theater and those who
frankly love vulgarity is an un-
bridgeable gulf The great mass OF
middle grounders. who go to see what
they like and keep away from what
they do not like. would scarcely take
the trouble to file their objections to
the plays they didn't approve Of or
sit on jury to Judge them. The ex-
tremists who would condemn or de-
fend the plays Of the moment would
thus be the jurors.
The remedy is largely in the hands
of the producer and if he really
wants TO avoid the shackles of cen
sorsnip the way is clear. Let him
develop ethics in his profession.

Common Language Link

One Of the principal objects of the
schools is to teach the children to
speak English. so that it may become
the language Of the people. This is of
vital Importance, as it will form bond
Of union for the numerous and more
or less distinct language groups and
establish a common medium of COM
l.:uMcaton which will make for ef-
ficiency in government and tend to build
Up spirit of solidarity. 1t will also
result in more widely circulating
press and the creation Of an instructed
public opinion, which is most impor-
tant
There is a great shortage of Eng
disappearing teachers. Many Of the
Filipino teachers who are instructng
in English are themselves far from
proficient in it. The force of American
teachers is altogether too small and
should be increased to approximately
1000 If instruction in English is to be
rapidly and successfully pushed for
ward.
In order to secure this number OF
American teachers a liberal allowance
in addition to the present salary will
have to be made for transportation to
and from the islands. And AS fur
ther measure toward better conditions
for instruction in English arrange
ments should be made for an intensive
course in English for the native teach
ers during the summer months.
The preparation of the Filipnos to
meet the professional and scientific
requirements Of their country and for
the advancement of general culture is
in part provided for by the University
of the Philippines, the high schools and
certain private schools and colleges.
At present these institutions are not
turning out sufficient number of
graduates to meet the needs Of the
situation. The University Of the Phil
ippines is an institution full of prom
ise, but is not meeting the demands
upon it in as satisfactory manner as
could reasonably be expected. There
is an urgent need of Americans OF
high standing and capacity for the
heads Of some departments. general
reorganization Is urgently necessary
and business management must be put
on sound basis. The medical school
should be brought to par with the
best in America and the school of trop-
ical medicine should be re-establishcd
and placed under the direction Of thor
