its original form, the drama is I'M
suited to the purposes of modern
acting drama, but the fact that
both the drama and its musical ac-

mother and the faithful Solveig
who has given up all for him. He
returns at last to his home, and
finds that the happiness he has
sought in vain in the world lies
back among the things he had
scorned.
Accompanying the recital of the
different phases of Peers advent
ures are musical numbers from the
First and Second Peer Gynt Suites,
the best known of which are Asses
Death, Anitra's Dance, and In the
story of the drama will be given

Washington, FEB. 20. - The
house soldiers bonus tax commit
tee got nowhere today at Its first
session to discuss ways and means
of financing the bonus. Several
members were absent and 1t final
ly was decided to put the whole
question over until later in the

Preliminary discussion, held be-
hind closed doors, was said to
have indicated that there would
be a lively scrap before manu-
facturers sales tax was reported
out. There appeared to be little
doubt, however, that the commit
tee would recommend that form o.
levy.
The first real fight by oppo
nents will be launched when thu
ways and means committee con
siders the recommendation. l
they lose there, opponents sa!
they will center next on the rule
committee. Chairman Campbell
would not discuss in advance an!
possible action by that commit
tee, but in some quarters 1t wa
said to be extremely doubtful tina
the committee would report ou
any rule for the passage Of tn
bonus bill with sales tax at
tached without providing for
separate vote on the tax feature
The form Of sales levy as pro
posed now in the committee woul,
provide for a general tax ON man
ufacturers or wholesalers, wit
exemptions in the case possibly @
most farm products. Proponent
of a sales levy said this was pre-
ferable to a plan defining specifi
subjects that would bear tn
charge.
