 Several of the Isoew's officials must, of necessity, see personally ev- cry picture they book in the boew's theatres, and they viewed both pro- auctions in which Miss Dove was starred. Her beauty and her acting impressed them. They asked MT. Loew to look at her work. He also was impressed.
 A short tour of several Boston theaters was then arranged and Miss Doves receptions exceeded expecta- tions. This proved that the public liked her. It was then that Mir. Loew decided to sign her for Metro.
 Her Southern tour had been ar ranged In the meantime, but as soon as she finishes, she will go to New York. close her apartment, and leave at once for the Loew Metro studios in Los Angeles.

FAMOUS VICTOR ARTISTS

Isy sateIle Bethea MariOve


 Billy Murray, the famous singer of comic songs who will appear with the Eight Famous Victor artists at the Jefferson theatre on the evening of Friday, April 21. is one of tho pioneers of the photograph, having made his first records, in the infancy of that instrument, when there was no such thing as master record, and one song made one record and only one.
 When Frances Dances With Me" and Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes" are among the numbers Billy Murray will sing here. His comedy will form a contrast to such serious songs as Wagner's magnih- cent Song to the Evening Star, as given by Frank Coxton, and the fine sentiment of the ballads sung by Henry Burr, Albert Campbell and John Meyer, singly and as the fla nous Sterling Trio.
 Seats for the concert will go on sale at the Jefferson theatre We'd nesday. April 19, at prices ranging from 75c to s200 plus tax.

SUBSIDY AND SOCIALISM
 By Iohn A. Voll

President, Glass Bottle Blowers As
 sociation of the United States
 and Canada.
 The cry has been that government ownership of railroads and merchant marine is socialistic. What, may we ask, is subsidy to private industry? If private industry in the shape of public utilities cannot stand upon it's own bottom and will function only through subsidy, then those public utilities should be owned and operated by the government, for If there is deficit in the operation that must be met by taxation the expenditure of the money thus derived should always be in the hands of the peoples repre- sentative, upon whom they at all times have check through the ballot and which eliminates twenty-year contracts that deprive the people from taking any advantage of changes that may occur favorable to their inter ests i'll the method of transportation or prevent aboishing. entirely, if in their minds, this burden of taxation for making up a deficit i'll transporta- ton on water or land does not meet with their views or expectations. j
