Fight for Beer and
 Wine Will Feature
 Campaign in Ohio

Columbus. O.-The approaching con- gressional election is to be enlivened by widespread effort to legalize a restoration of some oi the old-tlme kick to beer and wine.
 In every state where 1t is possible to obtain 8 referendum the opponents of national prohibition purpose to test popular sentiment on the proposition of modifying the VelsteaG law so as to permit the sale and manufacture of beer and wine of 2.75 per cent alcoholic content.
 Ohio is to be the scene of one of these tests, with the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment and the Anti Saloon League locking horns, not only in the referendum fight, but in the election of Senators, Congressman and State officials and the nominating primaries.
 Declaring against Legislation which defines beverage as ,iatoxicating when it is absolutely misunderstanding, tbe Association Against Prohibition. which opposes the~res1oration of the saloon, Las launched it's Ohio campaign for 230 GOO signatures, to petition fcr "a State referendum on prohibit tion as at present, enforced "
 The referendum is to take the form of proposal to amend the State law by substituting D per cent for one h alf of ] per cent in the definition of intoxicating liQuor. The amendment is to be moved under the initiative clause of the Ohio constitution; so that if approved by the voters in November it would become effective at once.
 Adoption of this amendment would rot give Ohio 2.75 per cent beer and wi ne so long as the Federal act pre- scribes oue- half of per cent, but the o hio Senators and Congressmen would be urged to accept it as instructions to vote for similar modification of the Volstead law.
 The same procedure is to be adopted in other States. the Association being convinced that widespread reaction against the rigors of national prohibl- tion has set in and will manifest itself in the Congress to be elected next fall.
 In circular issued from it's Cleve- land headquarters, the Association, which is headed by many men and women of national reputation, charges that conditions in the 'soft drinking dives are as degrading as those which "atte nded the old unregulated saloon, :" with sinister connection between this new type of saloon and prohibition en- forcement officers.

Not BY Accident

The "lead" conceded "Skaggs Stores" in the business of selling
groceries, is oy no means an accident as perhaps considered by
some.
Careful and wasteless store management, long hours of hard
work, with a willingness, and genuine desire to serve, and serve
well.
AS an organization, our sales volume and purchasing advan-
tages, are much greater than most concerns, our sales per store
unit and per man unit, are many times that in ordinary stores.
These principles and methods, that are so largely responsible
for "Skaggs Prices" were not acquired from good luck" or by &C.
c1dent, but by a thorough knowledge and understanding of econo-
mlcal food distribution with practical application.
These factors distinguish IS kagg Stores distinguish
"Skaggs Service" and distinguish "Skaggs Prices" from the ordi-
nary. Visit Skaggs Store and save.

string of papers, who has made
his millions giving the, public what
it wants. l. e., yellow journalism.
His delight over the D. C. L. de-
gree from Oxford, in return for a
bequest, even though he doesn't
know what the letters mean, is too
universally human to Justify Law
renee Reamer's objection that the
play is altogether British" The
concluding serious warning, BE
careful the public doesn't come, to
want something better than you
can give" makes one take issue
with Alexander wolcott that the
play is Superficial" although one,
agrees with him that it is IAN in
genious study OF this phenomena
of modern life" The average au-
dience will nnd it more than aver

lectuals will chuckle in superior
style.

Assembly adds another mystery
play involving a murder, confusion
of characters. underground tun-

tions, of a bootlegging gang in
Jersey. The Telegram alone calls
it "a good play" To the other
critics it is confusing and implaus-
ible. 1t seems more like a good
idea gone wrong. One wonder.
why during this, of all theatrical
seasons. one should put on a play
in such shape, when rewriting

Haywood Broun declares that "Mr.
Dynow has written a first act of
home life in the Bronx which falls
only a little short of frst-rate ar

On Reading Shakespeare.
Dramatic Editor:


Permit me to rep-y TO Amanda c.,
Kessler's letter in The Sunday Her
aid by stating that modern actors
have not lost the art of reading
the immortal bard. only wish
that more of them would attempt
1t. From the larger number more
talent would be developed. The
public would do the selecting of
the stars.
In Mr.. Mantelrs rendition of
Lear" confess that 1 felt some
what as Your correspondent, but
do not ascribe it to her reasons.
That atmosphere did not prevail
during the performances of the
other tragedies. And how about
''As You Like It?" / have never
enjoyed any Shakespearean play so
well, Notwithstanding the "melan-
choly" Jaques, after meeting the
Fool in the forest, laughed inordi-
nately for melancholy man.
Touchstone was SO delightful that
we soon forgot. True, Jaques had
laughed sans interfnission an hour
by his DIAL but we did not see
him laughing. And now when we
do, see him -he is melancholy"
again.
analyze your correspondents
feelings this way: After we read
Shakespeare. especially for a long
time, we get to visualizing the
scenes in a manner that no human
can portray. And besides, has any
actor ever played perfect Ham,
let or a perfect Antony or a per-
feet Othello7
Though perhaps not the Shake
spearean that your correspondent
is, I, too, take down my Shake
speare (she should get DR.. Fur
ness edition) and watch the char
acters play their parts. the kings
dressed in more royal robes. the
beggars in more beggarly rags and
the fools In more bizarre, cap. and
bells than I have ever seen upon
the stage.
Then, indeed. the perfect Ham
let, the perfect Antony and the
perfect othelio appear, for ] make
them act as ] please, There is no
limit to their acting except by
mental compass. for make them
act as well as my conception per-
mits.
Has your correspondent not often
read a book, and, after seeing the,
dramatized version of it found that
she had visualized all the scenes
more carefully and more elabo-l
rately than they were played. or

"Nice People" SlovenIy.
Dramatic Editor:

/ t]ui1Ois
1t seems to me that The Herald's
review of Nice People" at the
National last Monday night did not
sufficiently emphasize the complete
collapse of the dramatic equation
the problem of the modern girl and
her social habits-which was enun-
ciated so fiamboyantly and so studi-
ously by the dramatist in the first act
of her play.
In this act Miss Crothers seemed
determined to reveal the social atti-
tude OF the younger generation as a
problem, as riddle, a malignant So
cial cancer. In that gaudy opening
act young girls grow tight" show
their legs with abandon, inhale their
cigarettes and otherwise adopt an
attitude toward the male that be-
comes, according to the playwright,
major sociological problem.
FOR one. L am willing, for the sake
OF stage argument. to admit that
modern conditions among young peo-
pie constitute problem though |
am not willing to admit II outside
the theater> Nevertheless, i sat back
to await the remedy that the hero
ines aunt seemed ordained TO adduce
sometime before IL o'clock. | am
sun waiting for the answer
1t seems clear. now that Miss
Srothers was only making a bluff at
ner sociology. 1t appears that she
mad intention of answering the aues-
tion she so determinedly raised in
ner nrst act. Yet why, may 1 ask.
did she raise the question in such
gauoy fashion? Was 1t merely to
entertain the customers until the
audience got seated? Was it done
Tor oox-ofnce purposes to make the
play talked about? Or was it a con-
tession that Miss Crothers, having
raised the question>and become en-
amoured with its scenic possibilities,
decided to let It stand for the mere
purpose OF introducing the char
acters of. commonplace romance
These are questions / sought in
VAN while seated in the theater and
10 a large extent they were incom-
pletely answered the next morning
in the reviews. However, can
agree that 1t is one of the best en-
tertainments Miss Crothers has ever
written. though one Of the most
slovenly bits of dramatic thinking
that have seen in months.
